Isaiah 27
1 In that day, will Yahweh With his sword—the hard and the great and the strong, Bring punishment Upon Leviathan, the fleeing serpent, And upon Leviathan, the crooked serpent, —And will slay the monster which 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, A Wine-Vineyard! sing ye unto her:
På den dagen skal de finnast ein yndeleg vingard, syng um honom:
3 I—Yahweh, am Watching over her, Every moment, will I water her, —Lest anyone injure her, Night and day, will I watch over her.
«Eg, Herren, er vaktaren hans. Kvar augneblink vatnar eg honom, at ikkje nokon skal heimsøkja honom, vaktar eg honom dag og natt.
4 Fury, have I none, —Oh that there were delivered to me briars and thorns, in battle! I would march in among them I would set fire to them one and all.
Vreide hev eg ikkje; men vilde tornar og tistlar reisa seg til krig, skulde eg gå laus på deim, brenna deim heilt upp -
5 Else, let one lay hold of my protection, Let him make peace with me, —Peace, let him make with me.
utan so dei vilde fly til mi vern, gjera fred med meg, ja gjera fred med meg.»
6 In coming times, shall Jacob strike root, Israel, shall blossom and bud, —Then shall they fill the face of the world with fruit.
I komande dagar skal Jakob røta seg, Israel bløma og få renningar og fylla jordheimen med si frukt.
7 Was it, with the smiting of his smiter, that he smote him? Or as with the slaying of his slayer, was he slain?
Hev han slege honom liksom han slo plågaren hans? Eller vart han myrd liksom mordarane hans vart det?
8 By driving her away—by dismissing her, wouldest thou contend with her? He removed her by his rough wind in, a day of 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 hereby, shall a propitiatory—covering be put over the iniquity of Jacob, And all, this, is the fruit of taking away his sin, —When he maketh all the stones of an altar like chalk-stones that soon crumble, Sacred Stems and Sun Images, shall not arise.
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, The dwelling forsaken and left as a wilderness, —There, shall the calf feed, And, there, lie down And shall consume the branches thereof:
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 the cut-off boughs thereof are dry, they shall be broken to pieces, Women, coming, are kindling it! For it is not a people of understanding, For this cause, Will he that made him, not have compassion upon him, And, he that formed him, will shew him no favour.
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 And it shall come to pass, in that day, That Yahweh will beat off his fruit from the stream of the River ["Euphrates"], unto the torrent-valley of Egypt, —And, ye, shall be picked up, one by one O sons 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 And it shall come to pass in that day, That there shall be a blowing with a great horn, Then shall come in Such as have wandered in the land of Assyria, And such as have been outcasts in the land of Egypt, —And they shall bow themselves down unto Yahweh In the holy mountain, In 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.
