Ezekiel 34
1 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
2 "Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and tell them, even to the shepherds, 'Thus says the LORD: "Woe to the shepherds of Israel who feed themselves. Shouldn't the shepherds feed the sheep?
Menneskesøn, profeter mod Israels Hyrder, profeter og sig til dem: Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Ve Israels Hyrder, som røgtede sig selv! Skal Hyrderne ikke røgte Hjorden?
3 You eat the fat, and you clothe yourself with the wool, you kill the fatlings; but you do not feed the sheep.
I fortærede Mælken, med Ulden klædte I eder, de fede Dyr slagtede I, men Hjorden røgtede I ikke;
4 You haven't strengthened the diseased, neither have you healed that which was sick, neither have you bound up that which was broken, neither have you brought back that which was driven away, neither have you sought that which was lost; but with force and with rigor you have ruled over them.
de svage Dyr styrkede I ikke, de syge lægte I ikke, de saarede forbandt I ikke, de adsplittede bragte I ikke tilbage, de vildfarende opsøgte I ikke, men I styrede dem med Haardhed og Grumhed.
5 They were scattered, because there was no shepherd; and they became food to all the animals of the field.
Derfor spredtes de, eftersom der ingen Hyrde var, og blev til Æde for alle Markens vilde Dyr; ja, de spredtes.
6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and on every high hill: yes, my sheep were scattered on all the surface of the earth; and there was none who searched or sought."'
Min Hjord flakkede om paa alle Bjerge og paa hver en høj Banke, og over hele Jorden spredtes min Hjord, og ingen spurgte eller ledte efter dem.
7 "'"Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD:
Derfor, I Hyrder, hør HERRENS Ord!
8 'As I live,' says the LORD, 'surely because my sheep became a prey, and my sheep became food to all the animals of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my sheep, but the shepherds fed themselves, and didn't feed my sheep';
Saa sandt jeg lever, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN: Fordi min Hjord blev til Rov, fordi min Hjord blev til Æde for alle Markens vilde Dyr, eftersom der ingen Hyrde var, og Hyrderne ikke spurgte efter min Hjord, og fordi Hyrderne røgtede sig selv og ikke min Hjord,
9 therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the LORD:
derfor, I Hyrder, hør HERRENS Ord!
10 Thus says the LORD: 'Look, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my sheep at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the sheep; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; and I will deliver my sheep from their mouth, that they may not be food for them.'"
Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg, kommer over Hyrderne og kræver min Hjord af deres Haand, og jeg sætter dem fra at vogte min Hjord; Hyrderne skal ikke mere kunne røgte sig selv; jeg redder min Hjord af deres Gab, saa den ikke skal tjene dem til Æde.
11 "'For thus says the LORD: "Look, I myself, even I, will search for my sheep, and will seek them out.
Thi saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg vil selv spørge efter min Hjord og tage mig af den.
12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered abroad, so will I seek out my sheep; and I will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
Som en Hyrde tager sig af sin Hjord paa Stormvejrets Dag, saaledes tager jeg mig af min Hjord og redder den fra de Steder, hvorhen de spredtes paa Skyernes og Mulmets Dag;
13 I will bring them out from the peoples, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land; and I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the watercourses, and in all the inhabited places of the country.
jeg fører dem bort fra Folkeslagene, samler dem fra Landene og bringer dem til deres Land, og jeg, røgter dem paa Israels Bjerge, i Kløfterne og paa alle Landets beboede Steder.
14 I will feed them with good pasture; and on the mountains of the height of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie down in a good fold; and on fat pasture shall they feed on the mountains of Israel.
Paa gode Græsgange vil jeg vogte dem, og paa Israels Bjerghøjder skal deres Græsmarker være; der skal de lejre sig paa gode Græsmarker, og i fede Græsgange skal de græsse paa Israels Bjerge.
15 I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I will cause them to lie down," says the LORD.
Jeg vil selv røgte min Hjord og selv lade dem lejre sig, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
16 "I will seek that which was lost, and will bring back that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but the fat and the strong I will destroy; I will feed them in justice."
De vildfarende Dyr vil jeg opsøge, de adsplittede vil jeg bringe tilbage, de saarede vil jeg forbinde de svage vil jeg styrke, og de fede og kraftige vil jeg vogte; jeg vil røgte dem, som det er ret.
17 "'As for you, O my flock, thus says the LORD: "Look, I judge between sheep and sheep, the rams and the male goats.
Og I, min Hjord! Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg vil skifte. Ret mellem Faar og Faar, mellem Vædre og Bukke.
18 Does it seem a small thing to you to have fed on the good pasture, but you must tread down with your feet the residue of your pasture? And to have drunk of the clear waters, but you must foul the residue with your feet?
Er det eder ikke nok at græsse paa den bedste Græsgang, siden I nedtramper, hvad der er levnet af eders Græsgange? Er det eder ikke nok at drikke det klare Vand, siden I med eders Fødder plumrer, hvad der er levnet?
19 As for my sheep, they eat that which you have trodden with your feet, and they drink that which you have fouled with your feet."
Min Hjord maa græsse, hvad I har nedtrampet, og drikke, hvad I har plumret med eders Fødder!
20 "'Therefore thus says the LORD to them: "Look, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.
Derfor, saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg kommer for at skifte Ret mellem de fede og de magre Faar.
21 Because you thrust with side and with shoulder, and push all the diseased with your horns, until you have scattered them abroad;
Fordi I med Side og Skulder skubbede alle de svage Dyr bort og stangede dem med eders Horn, til I fik dem drevet ud,
22 therefore I will save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep.
derfor vil jeg hjælpe min Hjord, saa den ikke mere skal blive til Rov, og skifte Ret mellem Faar og Faar.
23 I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd.
Jeg sætter een Hyrde over dem, min Tjener David, og han skal vogte dem; han skal vogte dem, og han skal være deres Hyrde.
24 I, the LORD, will be their God, and my servant David prince among them;" I, the LORD, have spoken it.
Og jeg, HERREN, vil være deres Gud, og min Tjener David skal være Fyrste iblandt dem, saa sandt jeg, HERREN, har talet.
25 "'I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause evil animals to cease out of the land; and they shall dwell securely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
Jeg vil slutte en Fredspagt med dem og udrydde de vilde Dyr at Landet, saa de trygt kan bo i Ørkenen og sove i Skovene.
26 I will make them and the places around my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in its season; there shall be showers of blessing.
Og jeg gør dem og Landet rundt om min Høj til Velsignelse, og jeg sender Regn i rette Tid, mine Byger skal blive til Velsignelse.
27 The tree of the field shall yield its fruit, and the earth shall yield its increase, and they shall be secure in their land; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have broken the bars of their yoke, and have delivered them out of the hand of those who made slaves of them.
Markens Træer skal give deres Frugt og Landet sin Afgrøde; trygt skal de bo paa deres Jord, og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN, naar jeg bryder Stængerne paa deres Aag og frelser dem af deres Haand, som gjorde dem til Trælle.
28 They shall no more be a prey to the nations, neither shall the animals of the earth devour them; but they shall dwell securely, and none shall make them afraid.
Ikke mere skal de blive til Rov for Folkene, og Landets vilde Dyr skal ikke æde dem; trygt skal de bo, uden at nogen skræmmer dem.
29 I will raise up to them a plantation for renown, and they shall be no more consumed with famine in the land, neither bear the shame of the nations any more.
Jeg lader en Fredens Plantning vokse op for dem, og ingen skal rives bort af Hunger i Landet, og de skal ikke mere bære Folkenes Haan.
30 They shall know that I, the LORD, their God am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are my people," says the LORD.
De skal kende, at jeg, HERREN deres Gud, er med dem, og at de er mit Folk, Israels Hus, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
31 "You my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are men, and I am your God," says the LORD.'"
I er min Hjord, I er den Hjord, jeg røgter, og jeg er eders Gud, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
