Jeremiah 47
1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before that Pharaoh struck Gaza.
Herrens Ord, som kom til Profeten Jeremias imod Filisterne, førend Farao slog Gaza.
2 "Thus says the LORD: 'Look, waters rise up out of the north, and shall become an overflowing stream, and shall overflow the land and all that is in it, the city and those who dwell in it; and the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall wail.
Saa siger Herren: Se, der stige Vande op fra Norden, og de skulle vorde til en overskyllende Strøm, og de skulle overskylle Landet, og hvad der fylder det, Staden og dens Indbyggere; og Folkene skulle skrige, og alle Indbyggere i Landet hyle
3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers do not look back to their children for feebleness of hands;
for Lyden af hans vælige Hestes Hovslag, for hans Vognes Rumlen, for hans Hjuls Bulder; Fædrene se ikke tilbage efter Børnene, fordi de have ladet Hænderne synke,
4 because of the day that comes to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains: for the LORD will destroy the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Caphtor.
over den Dag, som kommer for at ødelægge alle Filister, for at udrydde hver Hjælper, som er tilbage for Tyrus og Sidon; thi Herren ødelægger Filisterne, de overblevne fra Øen Kafthor.
5 Baldness has come on Gaza; Ashkelon is brought to nothing, the remnant of their valley: how long will you cut yourself?
Gaza er bleven skaldet, Askalori er udryddet, de overblevne i deres Dal; hvor længe vil du saare dijg?
6 You sword of the LORD, "how long will it be before you be quiet? Put yourself into your sheath; rest, and be still."
Ve! du Herrens Sværd! hvor længe skal det vare, inden du vil holde dig rolig? far i din Skede, hvil og vær stille!
7 How can it be quiet, since the LORD has given you a command? Against Ashkelon, and against the seashore, there has he appointed it.'"
Hvorledes kan du holde dig rolig, da Herren har givet det Befaling? Imod Askalon og imod Havets Strand, derhen har han beskikket det.
