< Ezekiel 30 >

1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
2 “Son of man, prophesy, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: Howl, Aah! For the day!
Du Menneskesøn! spaa og sig: Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Hyler, ak, den Dag!
3 For a day [is] near, a day [is] near to YHWH! It is a time of cloud [over] the nations.
Thi nær er Dagen, ja, nær er Herrens Dag, en skyfuld Dag, den skal være Hedningernes Tid.
4 And a sword has come into Egypt, And there has been great pain in Cush, In the falling of the wounded in Egypt, And they have taken its store, And its foundations have been broken down.
Og der skal komme et Sværd over Ægypten, og der skal komme en Forfærdelse over Morland, naar der falder ihjelslagne i Ægypten, og man tager dets Gods, og dets Grundvolde nedbrydes.
5 Cush, and Phut, and Lud, and all the mixture, and Chub, And the sons of the land of the covenant fall by sword with them,
Morland og Put og Lud og den hele Blandingshob og Kub og Forbundslandets Sønner, de skulle falde tillige med dem for Sværdet.
6 Thus said YHWH: And those supporting Egypt have fallen, And the arrogance of her strength has come down, From Migdol to Syene, they fall by sword in her, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
Saa siger Herren: De, som støtte Ægypten, skulle ogsaa falde, og dets Magts Stolthed skal synke; fra Migdol til Syene skulle de falde der ved Sværdet, siger den Herre, Herre.
7 And they have been desolated in the midst of desolate lands, And its cities are in the midst of cities [that are] laid waste.
Og de skulle ligge øde midt iblandt de ødelagte Lande, og dets Stæder skulle være midt iblandt de øde Stæder.
8 And they have known that I [am] YHWH, In My giving fire against Egypt, And all her helpers have been broken.
Og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren, naar jeg tænder en Ild i Ægypten, og alle dets Hjælpere knuses.
9 In that day messengers go forth from before Me in ships, To trouble confident Cush, And there has been great pain among them, As the day of Egypt, for behold, it has come.
Paa den Dag skal der udgaa Sendebud fra mig paa Skibe til at forfærde Morland, som er trygt, og der skal være en Forfærdelse iblandt dem som paa Ægyptens Dag; thi se, det kommer!
10 Thus said Lord YHWH: I have caused the multitude of Egypt to cease, By the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon,
Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Ja, jeg vil gøre Ende paa Ægyptens Gods ved Nebukadnezars, Kongen af Babels, Haand.
11 He and his people with him—the terrible of nations, Are brought in to destroy the land, And they have drawn their swords against Egypt, And have filled the land [with] the wounded.
Han og hans Folk med ham, de forfærdelige iblandt Folkene, ere førte ind for at ødelægge Landet; og de skulle drage deres Sværd imod Ægypten og fylde Landet med ihjelslagne.
12 And I have made floods a dry place, And I have sold the land into the hand of evildoers, And I have made the land desolate, And its fullness, by the hand of strangers, I, YHWH, have spoken.
Og jeg vil gøre Strømmene tørre og sælge Landet i de ondes Haand og ødelægge Landet og dets Fylde ved fremmedes Haand, jeg Herren, jeg har talt det.
13 Thus said Lord YHWH: And I have destroyed idols, And caused vain things to cease from Noph, And there is no longer a prince of the land of Egypt, And I give fear in the land of Egypt.
Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Ja, jeg vil tilintetgøre Afgudsbillederne og lade Afguderne forsvinde fra Nof, og der skal ikke ydermere være en Fyrste af Ægyptens Land, og jeg vil lægge en Frygt paa Ægyptens Land.
14 And I have made Pathros desolate, And I have given fire against Zoan, And I have done judgments in No,
Og jeg vil ødelægge Patros og tænde en Ild i Zoan og holde Ret over No.
15 And I have poured out My fury on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt, And I have cut off the multitude of No.
Og jeg vil udøse min Harme over Sin, Ægypternes Fæstning, og udrydde Mængden i No.
16 And I have given fire against Egypt, Sin is greatly pained, and No is to be broken, And Noph has daily distresses.
Og jeg vil tænde en Ild i Ægypten, Sin skal vaande sig i Smerte, og No skal blive til at søndersplittes, og Nof skal have Fjender ved højlys Dag.
17 The youths of Aven and Pi-Beseth fall by sword, And these go into captivity.
De unge Karle i Aven og Pibeset skulle falde for Sværdet, og de selv skulle gaa i Fangenskab.
18 And the day has been dark in Tehaphnehes, In My breaking the yokes of Egypt there, And the excellence of her strength has ceased in her, Her! A cloud covers her, And her daughters go into captivity.
Og i Thakpankes formørkes Dagen, naar jeg der sønderbryder Ægyptens Aag, og dets Magts Stolthed der hører opf en Sky skal bedække det selv, og dets Døtre skulle gaa i Fangenskab.
19 And I have done judgments in Egypt, And they have known that I [am] YHWH.”
Og jeg vil holde Ret over Ægypten, og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.
20 And it comes to pass, in the eleventh year, in the first [month], on the seventh of the month, a word of YHWH has been to me, saying, “Son of man,
Og det skete i det ellevte Aar, i den første Maaned, paa den syvende Dag i Maaneden, at Herrens Ord kom til mig saalunde:
21 I have broken the arm of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And behold, it has not been bound up to give healing, To put a bandage to bind it, To strengthen it—to lay hold on the sword.
Du Menneskesøn! jeg har sønderbrudt Faraos, Kongen af Ægyptens, Arm, og se, den bliver ikke forbunden, saa man anvender Lægedom og lægger Bind paa for at forbinde den for at gøre den stærk til at tage fat paa Sværdet.
22 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And I have broken his arms, The strong one and the broken one, And have caused the sword to fall out of his hand,
Derfor, saa siger den Herre, Herre: Se, jeg kommer imod Farao, Kongen i Ægypten, og sønderbryder hans Arme, baade den stærke og den sønderbrudte, og jeg vil gøre, at Sværdet skal falde ud af hans Haand.
23 And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And have spread them through lands,
Og jeg vil adsprede Ægypterne iblandt Folkene, og jeg vil udstrø dem i Landene.
24 And I have strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And have given My sword into his hand, And I have broken the arms of Pharaoh, And he has groaned the groans of a pierced one—before him.
Men jeg vil styrke Kongen af Babels Arme og give ham mit Sværd i Haand; og jeg vil sønderbryde Faraos Arme, og han skal stønne for hans Ansigt, som den stønner, der er dødeligt saaret.
25 And I have strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And the arms of Pharaoh fall down, And they have known that I [am] YHWH, In My giving My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he has stretched it out toward the land of Egypt.
Og jeg vil styrke Kongen af Babels Arme, men Faraos Arme skulle synke; og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren, naar jeg giver mit Sværd i Kongen af Babels Haand, og han udrækker det imod Ægyptens Land.
26 And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands, And they have known that I [am] YHWH!”
Og jeg vil adsprede Ægypterne iblandt Folkene og bortstrø dem i Landene; og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.
