< Ezra 9 >

1 And just as finished these [things] they drew near to me the leaders saying not they have separated themselves the people Israel and the priests and the Levites from [the] peoples of the lands according to abominations their to the Canaanite[s] the Hittite[s] the Perizzite[s] the Jebusite[s] the Ammonite[s] the Moabite[s] the Egyptian[s] and the Amorite[s].
Men da alt dette var gjort, kom Øversterne til mig og sagde: »Folket, Israel og Præsterne og Leviterne, har ikke skilt sig ud fra Hedningerne eller fra deres Vederstyggeligheder, Kana'anæerne, Hetiterne, Perizziterne, Jebusiterne, Ammoniterne, Moabiterne, Ægypterne og Amoriterne;
2 For they have taken some of daughters their for themselves and for sons their and they have mixed themselves [the] offspring of holiness with [the] peoples of the lands and [the] hand of the leaders and the officials it has been in the unfaithfulness this first.
thi af deres Døtre har de taget sig selv og deres Sønner Hustruer, saa at den hellige Sæd har blandet sig med Hedningerne; og Øversterne og Forstanderne var de første til at øve denne Troløshed!«
3 And just as heard I the matter this I tore garment my and robe my and I pulled out! some of [the] hair of head my and beard my and I sat down! appalled.
Da jeg hørte den Tale, sønderrev jeg min Kjortel og min Kappe, rev Haar af mit Hoved og Skæg og satte mig hen i stum Smerte.
4 And to me they gathered every [person] trembling at [the] words of [the] God of Israel on [the] unfaithfulness of the exile[s] and I [was] sitting appalled until [the] offering of the evening.
Da samlede sig omkring mig alle de, der bævede for Israels Guds Ord mod Troløsheden hos dem, der havde været i Landflygtighed; og jeg sad i stum Smerte til Aftenafgrødeofferets Tid.
5 And at [the] offering of the evening I arose from humiliation my and in tearing of my garment my and robe my and I bowed down! on knees my and I spread out! palms my to Yahweh God my.
Men ved Aftenafgrødeofferets Tid rejste jeg mig af min Selvydmygelse, og idet jeg sønderrev min Kjortel og min Kappe, kastede jeg mig paa Knæ og udbredte Hænderne til, HERREN min Gud
6 And I said! O God my I am ashamed and I am humiliated to lift up O God my face my to you for iniquities our they have increased upwards a head and guilt our it is great to the heavens.
og sagde: »Min Gud, jeg skammer mig og blues ved at løfte mit Ansigt til dig, min Gud, thi vore Misgerninger er vokset os over Hovedet, og vor Skyld er saa stor, at den rækker til Himmelen!
7 From [the] days of ancestors our we [have been] in guilt great until the day this and in iniquities our we have been given we kings our priests our in [the] hand of - [the] kings of the lands by sword by captivity and by plunder and by shame of face as the day this.
Fra vore Fædres Tid indtil denne Dag har vor Skyld været stor, og for vore Misgerninger blev vi, vore Konger og Præster givet til Pris for Landenes Konger, for Sværd, Fangenskab, Udplyndring og Vanære, saaledes som det er den Dag i Dag.
8 And now like a little of a moment it has come favor from with - Yahweh God our to leave to us an escaped remnant and to give to us a tent peg in [the] place of holiness his to light up eyes our God our and to give to us reviving a little in servitude our.
Og nu er der en føje Stund blevet os Naade til Del fra HERREN vor Gud, idet han har ladet os beholde en undsluppet Rest og givet os at slaa vor Teltpæl paa sit hellige Sted, for at vor Gud kan lade vore Øjne lyse og give os en Smule Livskraft i vor Trældom;
9 For [are] slaves we and in servitude our not he has abandoned us God our and he has extended towards us covenant loyalty before [the] kings of Persia by giving to us reviving to raise up [the] house of God our and to set up ruins its and by giving to us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
thi er vi end Trælle, har vor Gud dog ikke forladt os i vor Trældom, men vundet os Naade for Perserkongernes Aasyn, saa at han har givet os Livskraft til at rejse vor Guds Hus og opbygge dets Grushobe og givet os et Gærde i Juda og Jerusalem.
10 And therefore what? will we say O God our after this for we have forsaken commandments your.
Men hvad skal vi nu sige, vor Gud, efter alt dette? Vi har jo forladt dine Bud,
11 Which you commanded by [the] hand of servants your the prophets saying the land which you [are] going to take possession of it [is] a land of impurity it by [the] impurity of [the] peoples of the lands by abominations their which they have filled it from mouth to mouth with uncleanness their.
som du gav os ved dine Tjenere Profeterne, da du sagde: Det Land, I drager ind i og tager i Besiddelse, er et urent Land paa Grund af Hedningernes Urenhed, paa Grund af de Vederstyggeligheder, de i deres Urenhed har fyldt det med fra Ende til anden;
12 And therefore daughters your may not you give to sons their and daughters their may not you take for sons your and not you must seek peace their and good their until perpetuity so that you may be strong and you will eat [the] good thing[s] of the land and you will cause to inherit [it] sons your until perpetuity.
derfor maa I ikke give deres Sønner eders Døtre eller tage deres Døtre til Hustruer for eders Sønner og ingen Sinde søge deres Velfærd og Lykke, at I kan blive stærke og nyde Landets Goder og sikre eders Sønner Besiddelsen deraf for evigt!
13 And after every [thing which] has come on us by deeds our evil and by guilt our great for - you O God our you have withheld downwards from iniquity our and you have given to us an escaped remnant like this.
Efter alt, hvad der er vederfaret os paa Grund af vore onde Gerninger og vor svare Skyld — og endda har du vor Gud ikke i fuldt Maal tilregnet os vore Synder, men skænket os en saadan Flok undslupne —
14 ¿ Will we return to break commandments your and to intermarry with [the] peoples of the abominations these ¿ not will you be angry with us until make an end to there not [will be] a remnant and an escaped remnant.
skal vi da paa ny krænke dine Bud ved at besvogre os med Folk, der øver slige Vederstyggeligheder? Vil du da ikke vredes saaledes paa os, at du ødelægger os aldeles, saa der ikke levnes nogen Rest, og ingen undslipper?
15 O Yahweh [the] God of Israel [are] righteous you for we are left an escaped remnant as the day this here we [are] before you in guilt our for not to stand before you on this.
HERRE, Israels Gud! Du er retfærdig, derfor er vi nu en Rest tilbage, som er undsluppet; se, vi staar for dig i vor Syndeskyld; thi det er umuligt at bestaa for dit Aasyn, naar sligt kan ske!«
