Ezekiel 30
1 The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
2 "Son of man, prophesy, and say, 'Thus says the LORD: "Wail, 'Alas for the day.'
Menneskesøn, profeter og sig: Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Jamrer: Ak, hvilken Dag!
3 For the day is near, even the day of the LORD is near; it shall be a day of clouds, a time of the nations.
Thi nær er Dagen, ja nær er HERRENS Dag; det bliver en Mulmets Dag, Hedningernes Tid.
4 A sword shall come on Egypt, and anguish shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt; and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down.
Et Sværd kommer over Ægypten, og Ætiopien gribes af Skælven, naar de slagne segner i Ægypten, naar dets Rigdom bortføres og dets Grundvolde nedbrydes.
5 Ethiopia, and Put, and Lud, and all the mixed people, and Cub, and the children of the land that is allied with them, shall fall with them by the sword."'
Ætioperne, Put og Lud og alt Blandingsfolket, Kub og min Pagts Sønner skal falde for Sværdet med dem.
6 "Thus says the LORD: 'They also who uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword,' says the LORD.
Saa siger HERREN: Alle, som støtter Ægypten, skal falde og dets stolte Herlighed synke sammen; fra Migdol til Syene skal de falde for Sværdet, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
7 'They shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate; and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.
Det skal lægges øde blandt øde Lande, og Byerne skal ligge hen blandt tilintetgjorte Byer;
8 They shall know that I am the LORD, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and all her helpers are destroyed.
og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN, naar jeg sætter Ild paa Ægypten og alle dets Hjælpere knuses.
9 In that day shall messengers go forth from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid; and there shall be anguish on them, as in the day of Egypt; for, look, it comes.'
Paa hin Dag skal der udgaa Sendebud fra mig paa Skibe for at indjage det sorgløse Ætiopien Rædsel, og de skal gribes af Skælven over Ægyptens Dag; thi se, den kommer.
10 "Thus says the LORD: 'I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease, by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Jeg gør Ende paa Ægyptens Herlighed ved Kong Nebukadrezar af Babel.
11 He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall be brought in to destroy the land; and they shall draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
Han og hans Folk med ham, de grummeste blandt Folkene, skal hentes for at ødelægge Landet; de skal drage deres Sværd mod Ægypten og fylde Landet med slagne.
12 I will make the rivers dry, and will sell the land into the hand of evil men; and I will make the land desolate, and all that is in it, by the hand of strangers: I, the LORD, have spoken it.'
Jeg tørlægger Strømmene, sælger Landet til onde Folk, og ved fremmede ødelægger jeg det med alt, hvad der er deri. Jeg, HERREN, har talet.
13 "Thus says the LORD: 'I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause the images to cease from Memphis; and there shall be no more a prince from the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Jeg tilintetgør Afgudsbillederne og udrydder Høvdingerne af Nof og Fyrsterne af Ægypten; de skal ikke findes mere; og jeg indjager Ægypten Rædsel.
14 I will make Pathros desolate, and will set a fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments on No.
Jeg lægger Patros øde, sætter Ild paa Zoan og holder Dom over No.
15 I will pour my wrath on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt; and I will cut off the multitude of No.
Jeg udøser min Vrede over Sin, Ægyptens Bolværk, og udrydder Nos larmende Hob.
16 I will set a fire in Egypt: Sin shall be in great anguish, and No shall be broken up; and Memphis shall have adversaries in the daytime.
Jeg sætter Ild paa Ægypten, Syene skal skælve af Angst, der skal brydes Hul paa No, og dets Mure skal nedrives.
17 The young men of On and of Pi-beseth shall fall by the sword; and these cities shall go into captivity.
De unge Mænd i On og Pibeset skal falde for Sværdet og Kvinderne vandre i Fangenskab.
18 At Tehaphnehes also the day shall withdraw itself, when I shall break there the yokes of Egypt, and the pride of her power shall cease in her: as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go into captivity.
I Takpankes sortner Dagen, naar jeg der sønderbryder Ægyptens Herskerstav, og dets stolte Herlighed faar Ende der. Selv skal det skjules af Skyer og dets Smaabyer vandre i Fangenskab.
19 Thus will I execute judgments on Egypt; and they shall know that I am the LORD.'"
Jeg holder Dom over Ægypten; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
20 It happened in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
I det ellevte Aar paa den syvende Dag i den første Maaned kom HERRENS Ord til mig saaledes:
21 "Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and look, it has not been bound up, to apply healing medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it be strong to hold the sword.
Menneskesøn! Ægypterkongen Faraos Arm har jeg brudt; og se den skal ikke forbindes, ikke læges ved at der lægges Bind om den, saa den kunde faa Kræfter til atter at gribe Sværdet.
22 Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Look, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong arm, and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
Derfor, saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg kommer over Farao, Ægyptens Konge, og bryder hans Arme, baade den hele og den brudte, og lader Sværdet falde af hans Haand.
23 I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
Jeg spreder Ægypterne blandt Folkene og udstrør dem i Landene.
24 I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand: but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.
Men jeg styrker Babels Konges Arme og lægger mit Sværd i hans Haand; og jeg bryder Faraos Arme, og han skal stønne for ham paa saaredes Vis.
25 I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon; and the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it out on the land of Egypt.
Jeg styrker Babels Konges Arme, men Faraos skal synke; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN, naar jeg lægger mit Sværd i Babels Konges Haand og han svinger det imod Ægypten.
26 I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them through the countries; and they shall know that I am the LORD.'"
Og jeg spreder Ægypterne blandt Folkene og udstrør dem i Landene; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
