Ezekiel 24
1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, saying,
HERRENs Ord kom i det niende år på den tiende dag i den tiende Måned til mig således:
2 “Son of man, write! Write the name of the day for yourself, this very day; the king of Babylon has leaned toward Jerusalem in this very day.
Menneskesøn, opskriv dig Navnet på denne Dag, Dagen i Dag, thi netop i Dag har Babels Konge kastet sig over Jerusalem.
3 And use an allegory toward the house of rebellion, and you have said to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: To set on the pot, to set [it] on, and also to pour water into it,
Og tal i Lignelse til den genstridige Slægt og sig: Så siger den Herre HERREN: Sæt kedelen over, sæt den over; kom også Vand deri;
4 To gather its pieces to it, every good piece, Thigh and shoulder, to fill in the choice of the bones.
læg Kødstykker i, alle Hånde gode Stykker, Kølle og Bov, fyld den med udsøgte Knogler;
5 To take the choice of the flock, And also to pile the bones under it, Boil it thoroughly, indeed, cook its bones in its midst.
tag af Hjordens bedste Dyr og læg en Stabel Brænde under den; kog Stykkerne, så også Knoglerne koges ud!
6 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Woe [to] the city of blood, A pot whose scum [is] in it, And its scum has not come out of it, By piece of it, by piece of it bring it out, a lot has not fallen on it.
Derfor, så siger den Herre HERREN: Ve Blodbyen, den rustne Kedel, hvis Rust ikke er gået af. Stykke efter Stykke giver den fra sig; der kastes ikke Lod om dem;
7 For her blood has been in her midst, She has set it on a clear place of a rock, She has not poured it on the earth, To cover it over with dust.
thi Blodet er endnu midti Byen; den hældte det på den nøgne Klippe og udgød det ikke på Jorden for at dække det med Muld.
8 To cause fury to come up to take vengeance, I have put her blood on a clear place of a rock—not to be covered.
For at fremkalde Vrede, for at tage Hævn hældte jeg Blodet på den nøgne klippe uden at dække det.
9 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Woe [to] the city of blood, indeed, I make the pile great.
Derfor, så siger den Herre HERREN: Ve Blodbyen! Nu vil også jeg gøre brændestabelen stor;
10 Make the wood abundant, Kindle the fire, consume the flesh, And make the compound, And let the bones be burned.
hent brænde i Mængde, lad Ilden lue og Kødet blive mørt, hæld Suppen ud og lad Benene brændes
11 And cause it to stand empty on its coals, So that its bronze is hot and burning, Its uncleanness has been melted in its midst, Its scum is consumed.
og sæt kedelen tom på de glødende kul, for at den kan blive så hed, at Kobberet gløder og Urenheden smelter; Rusten skal svinde!
12 She has wearied herself [with] sorrows, And the abundance of her scum does not go out of her, Her scum [is] in the fire.
Møje har den kostet, men den megen Rust gik ikke af. I Ilden med Rusten!
13 Wickedness [is] in your uncleanness, Because I have cleansed you, And you have not been cleansed, You are not cleansed from your uncleanness again, Until I have caused My fury to rest on you.
Fordi du er uren af Utugt, fordi du ikke kom af med din Urenhed, skønt jeg rensede dig, skal du ikke blive ren igen, før jeg har kølet min Harme på dig.
14 I, YHWH, have spoken, It has come, and I have done [it], I do not free, nor do I spare, nor do I regret, According to your ways, and according to your acts, They have judged you, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”
Jeg, HERREN, har talet, og det kommer! Jeg griber ind og opgiver det ikke, jeg skåner ikke og angre ej heller; efter dine Veje og dine Gerninger vil jeg dømme dig, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
15 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
16 “Son of man, behold, I am taking the desire of your eyes from you by a stroke, and you do not mourn, nor weep, nor let your tear come.
Menneskesøn! Se, jeg tager dine Øjnes Lyst fra dig ved en brat Død; men du skal ikke klage eller græde; du skal ikke fælde Tårer;
17 Cease to groan [and] make no mourning [for] the dead, bind your headdress on yourself, and put your shoes on your feet, and you do not cover over the upper lip, and you do not eat [the] bread of men.”
suk i Stilhed og hold ikke Døde klage, bind Huen på og tag Sko på Fødderne, tilhyl ikke dit Skæg og spis ikke Sørgebrød!
18 And I speak to the people in the morning, and my wife dies in the evening, and I do in the morning as I have been commanded.
Tal så om Morgenen til Folket! - Så døde min Hustru om Aftenen, og næste Morgen gjorde jeg, som mig var pålagt.
19 And the people say to me, “Do you not declare to us what these [are] to us, that you are doing?”
Og da Folket sagde til mig: "Vil du ikke lade os vide, hvad det, du der gør, skal sige os?"
20 And I say to them, “A word of YHWH has been to me, saying,
svarede jeg: "HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
21 Say to the house of Israel, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am defiling My sanctuary, The excellence of your strength, The desire of your eyes, and the pitied of your soul, And your sons and your daughters whom you have left, fall by sword.
Sig til Israels Hus: Så siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg vil vanhellige min Helligdom, eders Hovmods Stolthed, eders Øjnes Lyst, eders Sjæles Længsel; og de Sønner og Døtre, I lod tilbage, skal falde for Sværdet!
22 And you have done as I have done, You have not covered over the upper lip, And you do not eat [the] bread of men.
Og I skal gøre, som jeg nu gør: I skal ikke tilhylle eders Skæg eller spise Sørgebrød;
23 And your headdresses [are] on your heads, And your shoes [are] on your feet, You do not mourn nor do you weep, And you have wasted away for your iniquities, And you have howled to one another.
eders Huer skal blive på Hovederne og eders Sko på Fødderne; I skal ikke klage eller græde, men svinde hen i eders Synder og sukke for hverandre.
24 And Ezekiel has been for a type to you; according to all that he has done you do. In its coming in—you have known that I [am] Lord YHWH.”
Ezekiel skal være eder et Tegn; når det sker, skal I gøre, som han gør; og I skal kende, at jeg er den Herre HERREN,"
25 “And you, son of man, is it not in the day of My taking from them their strength, the joy of their beauty, the desire of their eyes, and the song of their soul—their sons and their daughters?
Og du, Menneskesøn! På den Dag jeg tager deres Værn, deres herlige Fryd, deres Øjnes Lyst og deres Sjæles Længsel, deres Sønner og Døtre fra dem,
26 In that day the escaped one comes to you to cause the ears to hear.
på den Dag skal en Flygtning komme til dig og melde det for dine Ører;
27 In that day your mouth is opened with the escaped and you speak, and are not silent anymore, and you have been for a type to them, and they have known that I [am] YHWH.”
på den Dag skal din Mund åbnes, når Flygtningen kommer, og du skal tale og ikke mere være stum; du skal være dem et Tegn; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
