< Ezekiel 14 >
1 And come in unto me do certain of the elders of Israel, and sit before me.
Og der kom Mænd af Israels Ældste til mig og sade for mit Ansigt.
2 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
3 'Son of man, these men have caused their idols to go up on their heart, and the stumbling-block of their iniquity they have put over-against their faces; am I inquired of at all by them?
Du Menneskesøn! disse Mænd have givet deres Afguder Plads i deres Hjerte, og hvad der var dem Anstød til at synde, have de stillet for deres Ansigt; skulde jeg vel lade mig adspørge for dem?
4 'Therefore, speak with them, and thou hast said unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Every one of the house of Israel who causeth his idols to go up unto his heart, and the stumbling-block of his iniquity setteth over-against his face, and hath gone in unto the prophet — I Jehovah have given an answer to him for this, for the abundance of his idols,
Derfor tal med dem, og sig til dem: Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Enhver Mand af Israels Hus, som giver sine Afguder Plads i sit Hjerte og stiller, hvad der var ham Anstød til at synde, for sit Ansigt og saa kommer til Profeten: For ham vil jeg, Herren, lade mig bringe til at svare desangaaende, nemlig angaaende hans Afguders Mangfoldighed,
5 in order to catch the house of Israel by their heart, in that they have become estranged from off me by their idols — all of them.
for at jeg kan gribe Israels Hus ved deres Hjerte, fordi de vege fra mig alle sammen ved deres Afguder.
6 'Therefore say unto the house of Israel: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Turn ye back, yea, turn ye back from your idols, and from all your abominations turn back your faces,
Derfor sig til Israels Hus: Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Omvender eder, og vender eder bort fra eders Afguder, ja, vender eders Ansigter bort fra alle eders Vederstyggeligheder!
7 for every one of the house of Israel, and of the sojourners who doth sojourn in Israel, who is separated from after Me, and doth cause his idols to go up unto his heart, and the stumbling-block of his iniquity setteth over-against his face, and hath come in unto the prophet to inquire of him concerning Me, I, Jehovah, have answered him for Myself;
Thi naar en Mand af Israels Hus eller af de fremmede, som opholde sig i Israel, skiller sig fra mig og giver sine Afguder Plads i sit Hjerte og stiller, hvad der var ham Anstød til at synde, for sit Ansigt og saa kommer til Profeten for at adspørge mig for sig: Ham vil jeg, Herren, lade mig bringe til at give et Svar fra mig selv.
8 and I have set My face against that man, and made him for a sign, and for similes, and I have cut him off from the midst of My people, and ye have known that I [am] Jehovah.
Og jeg vil rette mit Ansigt imod denne Mand og ødelægge ham, at han bliver til et Tegn og til et Ordsprog, og jeg vil udrydde ham af mit Folks Midte; og I skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.
9 'And the prophet, when he is enticed, and hath spoken a word — I, Jehovah, I have enticed that prophet, and have stretched out My hand against him, and have destroyed him from the midst of My people Israel.
Men naar Profeten lader sig overtale og taler noget, da har jeg, Herren, ladet denne Profet overtales; og jeg vil udrække min Haand over ham og ødelægge ham ud af mit Folk Israels Midte.
10 And they have borne their iniquity: as the iniquity of the inquirer, so is the iniquity of the prophet;
Og de skulle bære deres Misgerning; som hans Misgerning er, der adspørger, saa skal Profetens Misgerning være,
11 so that the house of Israel do not wander any more from after Me, nor are defiled any more with all their transgressions, and they have been to Me for a people, and I am to them for God — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
for at de af Israels Hus ikke mere skulle fare vild fra mig ej heller besmitte sig mere med nogen af deres Overtrædelser; men de skulle være mit Folk, og jeg skal være deres Gud, siger den Herre, Herre.
12 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
13 'Son of man, the land — when it sinneth against Me to commit a trespass, and I have stretched out My hand against it, and broken for it the staff of bread, and sent into it famine, and cut off from it man and beast —
Du Menneskesøn! naar et Land synder imod mig, saa at det bliver troløst imod mig, og jeg udrækker min Haand over det og formindsker Brøds Forraad for det, og jeg sender Hunger i det og udrydder Menneske og Fæ deraf,
14 and these three men have been in its midst, Noah, Daniel, and Job — they by their righteousness deliver their own soul — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
men der var disse tre Mænd, Noa, Daniel Og Job derudi: Da skulde disse alene redde deres Sjæl ved deres Retfærdighed, siger den Herre, Herre.
15 'If an evil beast I cause to pass through the land, and it hath bereaved, and it hath been a desolation, without any passing through because of the beast —
Naatr jeg lader vilde Dyr gaa igennem Landet, og de berøve Folk deres Børn, og det blev øde, saa at ingen gaar der igennem for Dyrenes Skyld,
16 these three men in its midst: I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah — neither sons nor daughters do they deliver; they alone are delivered, and the land is a desolation.
men hine tre Mænd vare derudi, saa sandt jeg lever, siger den Herre, Herre: De skulde hverken redde Sønner eller Døtre; de selv alene skulde reddes, men Landet vorde øde.
17 'Or — a sword I bring in against that land, and I have said: Sword, thou dost pass over through the land, and I have cut off from it man and beast —
Eller naar jeg lader Sværdet komme over det samme Land, og jeg siger: Sværd! du skal fare igennem Landet, og jeg udrydder Menneske og Fæ deraf,
18 and these three men in its midst: I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah — they deliver not sons and daughters, for they alone are delivered.
men hine tre Mænd vare derudi, saa sandt jeg lever, siger den Herre, Herre: De skulde ikke redde Sønner eller Døtre; men de alene skulde reddes.
19 'Or — pestilence I send unto that land, and I have poured out My fury against it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast —
Eller naar jeg sender Pest i det samme Land og udøser min Harme over det med Blod, saa at jeg udrydder Menneske og Fæ deraf,
20 and Noah, Daniel, and Job, in its midst: I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah — neither son nor daughter do they deliver; they, by their righteousness, deliver their own soul.
men Noa, Daniel og Job vare derudi, saa sandt jeg lever, siger den Herre, Herre: De skulde hverken redde Søn eller Datter; men de skulde redde deres egen Sjæl ved deres Retfærdighed.
21 'For thus said the Lord Jehovah: Although My four sore judgments — sword, and famine, and wild beast, and pestilence — I have sent unto Jerusalem, to cut off from it man and beast,
Thi saa siger den Herre, Herre: Meget mere, naar jeg sender mine fire grumme Straffedomme over Jerusalem, nemlig: Sværd og Hunger og vilde Dyr og Pest for at udrydde Menneske og Fæ deraf,
22 yet, lo, there hath been left in it an escape, who are brought forth, sons and daughters, lo, they are coming forth unto you, and ye have seen their way, and their doings, and have been comforted concerning the evil that I have brought in against Jerusalem, all that which I have brought in against it.
og se, der bliver nogle undkomne tilovers, som bortføres, Sønner og Døtre: Se, de skulle gaa ud til eder, og I skulle se deres Vej og deres Gerninger; og I skulle trøste eder over den Ulykke, som jeg lod komme over Jerusalem, ja, alt det, som jeg lod komme over den.
23 And they have comforted you, for ye see their way and their doings, and ye have known that not for nought have I done all that which I have done in her — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
Og de skulle trøste eder, naar I se deres Vej og deres Gerninger; og I skulle erkende, at jeg intet har gjort uden Grund af alt det, som jeg gjorde derudi, siger den Herre, Herre.
