< Isaiah 27 >

1 In that day, Jehovah with his fierce and great and mighty sword will punish leviathan, the fleeing serpent, and leviathan the twisted serpent; and he will kill the serpent that is in the sea.
På den dagen skal Herren med sverdet sitt, det harde og store og sterke, heimsøkja Livjatan, den flogsnare ormen, og Livjatan, den krøkjande ormen, og han skal drepa sjøormen.
2 In that day, sing to her, "A pleasant vineyard.
På den dagen skal de finnast ein yndeleg vingard, syng um honom:
3 I, Jehovah, am its keeper. I will water it every moment. Lest anyone damage it, I will keep it night and day.
«Eg, Herren, er vaktaren hans. Kvar augneblink vatnar eg honom, at ikkje nokon skal heimsøkja honom, vaktar eg honom dag og natt.
4 Wrath is not in me, but if I should find briers and thorns, I would do battle. I would march on them and I would burn them together.
Vreide hev eg ikkje; men vilde tornar og tistlar reisa seg til krig, skulde eg gå laus på deim, brenna deim heilt upp -
5 Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me. Let him make peace with me."
utan so dei vilde fly til mi vern, gjera fred med meg, ja gjera fred med meg.»
6 In days to come, Jacob will take root. Israel will blossom and bud. They will fill the surface of the world with fruit.
I komande dagar skal Jakob røta seg, Israel bløma og få renningar og fylla jordheimen med si frukt.
7 Has he struck them as he struck those who struck them? Or have they been killed as their killers were killed?
Hev han slege honom liksom han slo plågaren hans? Eller vart han myrd liksom mordarane hans vart det?
8 In measure, when you send them away, you contend with them. He has removed them with his rough blast in the day of the east wind.
Med måte refste du henne, med du sende henne burt. Han dreiv henne burt med sitt harde ver, den dagen austanvinden bles.
9 Therefore, by this the iniquity of Jacob will be forgiven, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: that he makes all the stones of the altar as chalk stones that are beaten in pieces, so that the Asherim and the incense altars shall rise no more.
Difor vert og misgjerdi åt Jakob utsona, og det at syndi vert burtteki, fær gjeva fullmogi frukt, når alle altarsteinarne vert krasa som kalksteinar, og Astarte-bilæti og solstolparne ikkje reiser seg meir.
10 For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness. The calf will feed there, and there he will lie down, and consume its branches.
For den faste byen ligg i øyde, ein folketom bustad, aud som øydemarki. Kalvar beiter der og hev der si lega og et av kvisterne.
11 When its boughs are withered, they will be broken off. The women will come and set them on fire, for they are a people of no understanding. Therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them, and he who formed them will show them no favor.
Når greinerne hev vorte turre, bryt dei deim av, kvinnfolki nører upp eld med deim. For dette er ikkje noko vitugt folk. Difor miskunnar deira skapar deim ikkje, og han som laga deim, er deim ikkje nådig.
12 It will happen in that day, that Jehovah will thresh from the flowing stream of the Perath to the Wadi of Egypt; and you will be gathered one by one, children of Israel.
Og det skal henda på den dagen, at Herren skal halda ei frukthausting alt frå Storelvi til Egyptarlands-bekken, og de, Israels born, skal verte sanka, ein for ein.
13 It will happen in that day that a great trumpet will be blown; and those who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and those who were outcasts in the land of Egypt, shall come; and they will worship Jehovah in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
Og det skal henda på den dagen at dei skal blåsa i ein stor lur, og då skal dei koma dei burtkomne i Assurs land og dei burtdrivne i Egyptarlandet, og dei skal tilbeda Herren på det heilage fjellet i Jerusalem.
