Ezekiel 5
1 “Also, you human, [when you start doing those things, ] take a sharp sword and use it like [SIM] a razor to shave your head and your beard. Then put the hair that you shaved off on scales, and divide the [into three equal parts].
Og du Menneskesøn! tag dig et skarpt Sværd, som en Barbers Ragekniv skal du tage dig det, og lade det gaa over dit Hoved og over dit Skæg; og du skal tage dig Vægtskaale og dele dem.
2 When the time during [you will symbolize that] the city will be [by enemy troops] ends, put a third of the hair inside [drawing of the] city and burn it. Take another third of the hair, [scatter it] all [the drawing of] the city, and then strike it with your sword. That will symbolize that I will strike the people of Jerusalem [their enemies’] swords. Then allow the wind to scatter the other third of the hair. That will symbolize [even if they flee from the city], I will [cause their enemies to] pursue them and attack them with swords.
En Tredjedel skal du brænde i Ilden midt i Staden, naar Belejringens Dage ere udløbne; og den anden Tredjedel skal du tage og slaa med Sværdet trindt omkring den, og den sidste Tredjedel skal du sprede for Vinden; thi jeg vil uddrage Sværdet efter dem.
3 Take a few of your hairs and tuck them into the folds of your robe.
Og du skal tage et lidet Antal derfra og binde dem i dine Flige.
4 Then take a few of those hairs, throw them into the fire, and burn them up. [That will symbolize that] a fire will spread from Jerusalem [and destroy things] throughout Israel.
Men af dem skal du igen tage nogle og kaste dem midt i Ilden og opbrænde dem i Ilden; derfra skal udgaa en Ild imod hele Israels Hus.
5 This is what [I, ] Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘[drawing will represent] Jerusalem, [the city which] I have set in the center of the nations, with [other] countries around it.
Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Dette er Jerusalem; midt iblandt Folkene har jeg sat den og Landene trindt omkring den.
6 But the wicked people of Jerusalem rebelled against [obeying] my commands, and [they show that] they are more wicked than the people of the surrounding countries. They rejected my laws and refused to obey my commands.’
Men den var genstridig imod mine Bud indtil Ugudelighed mere end Hedningerne, og imod mine Skikke mere end Landene, som ere trindt omkring den; thi de forkastede mine Bud og vandrede ikke efter mine Skikke.
7 Therefore, this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘You people of Jerusalem have been more rebellious than the people of the nations around you; you have not obeyed any of my laws [DOU]. You have not even obeyed the laws of the nations around you!’
Derfor, saa siger den Herre, Herre: Efterdi I gøre Uro mere end Hedningerne, som ere trindt omkring eder, og vandre ikke efter mine Skikke og gøre ikke efter mine Bud og gøre heller ikke efter de Hedningers Bud, som ere trindt omkring eder:
8 Therefore, this is [I, ] Yahweh the Lord, say: ‘I am opposed to [you people of] Jerusalem. I will punish you, and the [people of other] nations will see it happen.
Derfor, saa siger den Herre, Herre: Se, jeg kommer over dig, ja, jeg, og jeg vil holde Ret i din Midte for Hedningernes Øjne.
9 Because of all your detestable [idols], I will punish [people of Jerusalem] like I have never done before and will never do again.
Og jeg vil gøre ved dig saaledes, som jeg endnu ikke har gjort, og saadant, som jeg heller ikke skal gøre ydermere, formedelst alle dine Vederstyggeligheder.
10 As a result, parents among you will eat their children, and children will eat their [because there will be nothing else to eat]. I will punish you [severely], and I will cause those who will still be alive to be scattered in all directions [IDM].’
Derfor skulle Forældrene æde deres Børn i din Midte og Børnene æde deres Forældre; og jeg vil holde Ret hos dig og adsprede alt det overblevne af dig for alle Vinde.
11 Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, because you have polluted my temple with all your disgusting [statues of idols] and by the other detestable things that you do, I will no longer bless you. I will not pity [you] or act mercifully [toward you].
Derfor, saa sandt jeg lever, siger den Herre, Herre: Efterdi du har besmittet min Helligdom med alle dine Afskyeligheder og med alle dine Vederstyggeligheder: Da vil ogsaa jeg drage mig tilbage, og mit Øje skal ikke spare, og jeg vil heller ikke skaane.
12 One-third of your people will die inside the city because of the plagues [they will experience] or by (famine/lack of food). One-third of your people will be killed [your enemies’] swords outside the city. And one-third I will cause to be scattered in all directions; [your enemies] will [still] pursue you and kill you with their swords.
En Tredjedel af dig skal dø i Pesten og fortæres ved Hungeren i din Midte, og den anden Tredjedel skal falde for Sværdet trindt omkring dig, og den sidste Tredjedel vil jeg sprede for alle Vinde og uddrage Sværdet efter dem.
13 Then I will no longer be angry with you; I will stop punishing [MTY] you after I have gotten revenge on you. And when I stop punishing you, you will know that I, Yahweh, have spoken to you because I have been very strongly concerned [what you have done].
Saa skal min Vrede fuldkommes, og jeg vil køle min Harme paa dem og tage Hævn; og de skulle kende, at jeg Herren har talt i min Nidkærhed, naar jeg har fuldkommet min Harme paa dem.
14 I will cause your [city] to be a ruins, with the result that [people of other] nations that are around you will pass by and see it and sneer at you.
Og jeg vil gøre dig til et øde Sted og til Forhaanelse iblandt Hedningerne, som ere trindt omkring dig, for enhvers Øjne, som gaar forbi.
15 They will make fun of you and taunt you. When I severely punish you because of my being very angry [DOU] with you, they will be horrified and they will be warned. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.
Og dette skal vorde til Spot og Forhaanelse, til Advarsel og Forskrækkelse for Hedningerne, sop ere trindt omkring dig, naar jeg holder Ret over dig i Vrede og i Harme og med Harmens Tugtelse; jeg Herren, jeg har talt det;
16 When I cut off your food supply and cause there to be more famine, [it will be as though] [MET] I am shooting at you with my arrows that will destroy you.
naar jeg udsender iblandt dem Hungerens onde Pile, som skulle være til Ødelæggelse, hvilke jeg vil sende til at ødelægge eder, og naar jeg fremdeles bringer Hunger over eder og formindsker Brøds Forraad for eder.
17 I will cause you to experience a famine, and I will send wild beasts to attack you and your children, and [all] your children will be killed. You will experience plagues and wars, and I will cause [your enemies] to attack you with their swords. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.”
Og jeg skal sende Hunger og vilde Dyr over eder, som skulle berøve dig dine Børn, og der skal gaa Pest og Blod over dig, og Sværd vil jeg føre over dig; jeg Herren, jeg har talt det.
