Isaiah 27
1 In that day will Jehovah punish with his sword, His hard, and great, and strong sword, The leviathan, that fleet serpent, Even the leviathan, that winding serpent; Yea, he will slay the monster, that is in the sea.
Paa den Dag skal Herren med sit haarde og store og stærke Sværd hjemsøge Leviathan, den flygtende Slange, og Leviathan, den bugtede Slange, og han skal ihjelslaa. Uhyret, som er i Havet.
2 In that day, sing ye thus concerning the vineyard:
Paa den Dag synger om en lystelig Vingaard:
3 “I, Jehovah, am its guardian; I will water it every moment; That no one may assault it, I will watch it day and night.
Jeg, Herren, er dens Vogter, hvert Øjeblik vander jeg den; for at ingen skal hjemsøge den, vil jeg Dag og Nat vogte den.
4 There is no fury in me; But let me find the thorns and thistles in battle. I will go against them, And burn them up together,
Jeg har ikke Vrede; men lad Torne og Tidsler komme imod mig med Krig, da vil jeg falde ind paa dem og opbrænde dem til Hobe,
5 Unless they take hold of my protection, And with me make peace, And make peace with me.”
hvis man ikke vil tage sin Tilflugt til mig, slutte Fred med mig, slutte Fred med mig.
6 In coming days shall Jacob take root, And Israel flourish and bud forth, And fill the world with fruit.
I de kommende Dage skal Jakob slaa Rødder, Israel skal blomstre og faa Knopper; og de skulle fylde Jorderige med Frugt.
7 Did he smite Israel, as he smote those that smote him? Was he slain as those that slew him?
Mon han har slaget det, som han har slaget dets Drabsmænd? eller mon det være ihjelslaget, som de ere ihjelslagne, der ihjelslog det?
8 In measure, by sending her away, didst thou punish her, Taking her away in the rough tempest, in the day of the east wind.
Med Maade, med Udstødelse trættede du imod det; han bortrev det ved sit haarde Vejr, den Dag det var Østenstorm.
9 By this, therefore, is the iniquity of Jacob expiated, And this is wholly the fruit of the removal of his sin, That He has made the stones of the altar like limestones broken in pieces, And that the images of Astarte and the sun-pillars no more stand.
Derfor bliver herved Jakobs Ondskab udsonet, og Frugten af, at han borttager dets Synd, er alt dette: At han gør alle Alterets Stene som adspredte Kalkstene; Astartebilleder og Solbilleder skulle ikke rejse sig mere.
10 For the fortified city is desolate, A habitation forsaken, deserted like a wilderness; There doth the calf feed, and there doth he lie down, And consume her branches.
Thi den faste Stad ligger øde, en Bolig forkastet og forladt som Ørken; der skulle Kalve gaa i Græs, og der skulle de ligge og fortære dens Kviste.
11 When her boughs are withered, they are broken off; Women come, and burn them; For it was a people of no understanding; Therefore he that made him had not mercy on him, And he that formed him showed him no favor.
Naar dens Grene tørres, da skulle de sønderbrydes, Kvinder skulle komme og gøre Ild dermed; thi det er ikke et forstandigt Folk, derfor skal han, som skabte det, ikke forbarme sig over det, og han, som dannede det, skal ikke være det naadig.
12 But it shall come to pass in that day, That Jehovah shall gather fruit From the stream of the Euphrates to the river of Egypt, And ye shall be gathered, one by one, ye children of Israel!
Og det skal ske paa den Dag, at Herren skal afryste Frugter fra Flodens Strøm indtil Ægyptens Bæk; og I skulle opsankes, en for en, I Israels Børn!
13 In that day shall a great trumpet be sounded, And they shall come who are lost in the land of Assyria, And are outcasts in the land of Egypt, And shall worship Jehovah upon the holy mountain in Jerusalem.
Og det skal ske, paa den Dag skal man blæse i en stor Basun, saa skulle de fortabte i Assyriens Land og de bortdrevne i Ægyptens Land komme og tilbede Herren paa det hellige Bjerg i Jerusalem.
