< Ezekiel 47 >
1 Afterward he brought me again to the door of the house; and, behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward: for the front of the house stood toward the east, and the waters came down from under from the right side of the house, at the south side of the altar.
Derpaa førte han mig tilbage til Tempelets Indgang, og se, Vand sprang ud under Tempelets Tærskel i østlig Retning, thi Templets Forside vendte mod Øst; og Vandet løb ned under Templets Sydside sønden for Alteret.
2 Then he brought me out of the way of the gate northward, and led me about the way outside to the outer gate by the way that looketh eastward; and, behold, there ran out waters on the right side.
Saa førte han mig ud gennem Nordporten og rundt udenom til den ydre Østport, og se, Vand rislede frem fra Sydsiden.
3 And when the man that had the line in his hand went forth eastward, he measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me through the waters; the waters were to the ankles.
Derpaa gik Manden ud mod Øst med en Maalesnor i Haanden, og da han havde maalt 1000 Alen, lod han mig gaa gennem Vandet, Vand til Anklerne.
4 Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through the waters; the waters were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through; the waters were to the loins.
Da han atter havde maalt 1000 Alen, lod han mig paa ny gaa gennem Vandet, Vand til Knæene; og da han atter havde maalt 1000 Alen, lod han mig paa ny gaa gennem Vandet, som der naaede til Hoften.
5 Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass over: for the waters had risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over.
Da han atter havde maalt 1000 Alen, var det en Strøm, som jeg ikke kunde vade over, thi Vandet gik saa højt, at man maatte svømme over; det var en Strøm, man ikke kunde vade over,
6 And he said to me, Son of man, hast thou seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of the river.
Da sagde han til mig: »Har du set det, Menneskesøn?« Og han førte mig tilbage langs Strømmens Bred.
7 Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
Da jeg kom tilbage, se, da var der ved Strømmens Bred en stor Mængde Træer paa begge Sider;
8 Then said he to me, These waters issue out toward the east country, and go down into the desert, and go into the sea: which being brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed.
og han sagde til mig: »Dette Vand løber ud i Østerkredsen og ned i Araba, og naar det falder ud i Havet, Salthavet, bliver Vandet der sundt;
9 And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, wherever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come there: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live where the river cometh.
alle de levende Væsener, hvoraf det vrimler, skal leve, overalt hvor Strømmen kommer hen, og der skal være en stor Mængde Fisk; thi naar dette Vand kommer derhen, bliver Havvandet sundt, og alt skal leve, hvor Strømmen kommer hen.
10 And it shall come to pass, that the fishermen shall stand upon it from Engedi even to Eneglaim; they shall be a place to spread forth nets; their fish shall be according to their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, very many.
Fiskere skal staa ved det fra En-Gedi til En-Eglajim; et Sted til at udspænde Fiskegarn skal det være; dets Fisk skal være som det store Havs Fisk, saare mange.
11 But its miry places and its marshes shall not be healed; they shall be given to salt.
Men dets Sumpe og Vandhuller skal ikke blive sunde; af dem skal udvindes Salt.
12 And by the river upon its bank, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for food, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall its fruit be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to its months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and its fruit shall be for food, and its leaf for medicine.
Paa begge Flodens Bredder skal der vokse alle Haande Frugttræer, hvis Blade ikke falder af, og hvis Frugter aldrig faar Ende; hver Maaned bærer de nye Frugter; thi dens Vand udspringer i Helligdommen. Frugterne skal tjene til Føde og Bladene til Lægedom.«
13 Thus saith the Lord GOD; This shall be the border, by which ye shall inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.
Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Dette er den Grænse, inden for hvilken I skal udskifte Landet imellem eder efter Israels tolv Stammer; Josef skal have to Lodder.
14 And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another: concerning which I lifted up my hand to give it to your fathers: and this land shall fall to you for inheritance.
I skal alle uden Undtagelse tage det Land i Eje, som jeg med løftet Haand svor at give eders Fædre; det skal nu tilfalde eder som Arvelod.
15 And this shall be the border of the land toward the north side, from the great sea, the way of Hethlon, as men go to Zedad;
Saaledes skal Landets Nordgrænse være: Fra det store Hav i Retning af Hetlon til det Sted, hvor Vejen gaar til Zedad,
16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazarhatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.
Hamat, Berota, Sibrajim, mellem Damaskus's og Hamats Omraader, Hazar-Enon ved Haurans Grænse.
17 And the border from the sea shall be Hazarenan, the border of Damascus, and the north northward, and the border of Hamath. And this is the north side.
Grænsen gaar fra det store Hav til Hazar-Enon, saaledes at Damaskus's Omraade ligger norden for ved Siden af Hamat. Det er Nordgrænsen.
18 And the east side ye shall measure from Hauran, and from Damascus, and from Gilead, and from the land of Israel by Jordan, from the border to the east sea. And this is the east side.
Østgrænsen: Fra Hazar-Enon mellem Hauran og Damaskus danner Jordan Grænse mellem Gilead og Israels Land til Havet i Øst, hen til Tamar. Det er Østgrænsen.
19 And the south side southward, from Tamar even to the waters of strife in Kadesh, the river to the great sea. And this is the south side southward.
Sydgrænsen: Fra Tamar over Meribas Vand ved Kadesj til Bækken, ud til det store Hav. Det er Sydgrænsen.
20 The west side also shall be the great sea from the border, till a man cometh opposite Hamath. This is the west side.
Vestgrænsen: Det store Hav danner Grænse til tværs over for det Sted, hvor Vejen gaar til Hamat. Det er Vestgrænsen.
21 So shall ye divide this land to you according to the tribes of Israel.
Dette Land skal I udskifte iblandt eder efter Israels Stammer;
22 And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, who shall beget children among you: and they shall be to you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
I skal ved Lodkastning udskifte det som Arvelod mellem eder og de fremmede, som bor iblandt eder og der har avlet Sønner og Døtre; de skal være eder som ind fødte Israeliter og kaste Lod med eder om Arvelod blandt Israels Stammer.
23 And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord GOD.
I den Stamme, hvor den fremmede bor, skal I give ham hans Arvelod, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
