Isaiah 11
1 And a rod hath come out from the stock of Jesse, And a branch from his roots is fruitful.
Men der skyder en Kvist af Isajs Stub, et Skud gror frem af hans Rod;
2 Rested on him hath the Spirit of Jehovah, The spirit of wisdom and understanding, The spirit of counsel and might, The spirit of knowledge and fear of Jehovah.
og HERRENS Aand skal hvile over ham, Visdoms og Forstands Aand, Raads og Styrkes Aand, HERRENS Kundskabs og Frygts Aand.
3 To refresh him in the fear of Jehovah, And by the sight of his eyes he judgeth not, Nor by the hearing of his ears decideth.
Hans Hu staar til HERRENS Frygt; han dømmer ej efter, hvad Øjnene ser, skønner ej efter, hvad Ørene hører.
4 And he hath judged in righteousness the poor, And decided in uprightness for the humble of earth, And hath smitten earth with the rod of his mouth, And with the breath of his lips he putteth the wicked to death.
Han dømmer de ringe med Retfærd, fælder redelig Dom over Landets arme. Voldsmanden slaar han med Mundens Ris, gudløse dræber han med Læbernes Aande.
5 And righteousness hath been the girdle of his loins, And faithfulness — the girdle of his reins.
Og Retfærd er Bæltet, han har om sin Lænd, Trofasthed Hofternes Bælte.
6 And a wolf hath sojourned with a lamb, And a leopard with a kid doth lie down, And calf, and young lion, and fatling [are] together, And a little youth is leader over them.
Og Ulven skal gaa hos Lammet, Panteren hvile hos Kiddet, Kalven og Ungløven græsse sammen, dem driver en lille Dreng.
7 And cow and bear do feed, Together lie down their young ones, And a lion as an ox eateth straw.
Kvien og Bjørnen bliver Venner, deres Unger ligger Side om Side, og Løven æder Straa som Oksen;
8 And played hath a suckling by the hole of an asp, And on the den of a cockatrice Hath the weaned one put his hand.
den spæde skal lege ved Øglens Hul, den afvante række sin Haand til Giftslangens Rede.
9 Evil they do not, nor destroy in all My holy mountain, For full hath been the earth with the knowledge of Jehovah, As the waters are covering the sea.
Der gøres ej ondt og voldes ej Men i hele mit hellige Bjergland; thi Landet er fuldt af HERRENS Kundskab, som Vandene dækker Havets Bund.
10 And there hath been, in that day, A root of Jesse that is standing for an ensign of peoples, Unto him do nations seek, And his rest hath been — honour!
Paa hin Dag skal Hedningerne søge til Isajs Rodskud, der staar som et Banner for Folkeslagene, og hans Bolig skal være herlig.
11 And it hath come to pass, in that day, The Lord addeth a second time his power, To get the remnant of His people that is left, From Asshur, and from Egypt, And from Pathros, and from Cush, And from Elam, and from Shinar, And from Hamath, and from isles of the sea,
Paa hin Dag skal Herren atter udrække sin Haand for at vinde, hvad der er til Rest af hans Folk, fra Assur og fra Ægypten, fra Patros, Ætiopien og Elam, fra Sinear, Hamat og Havets Strande.
12 And He hath lifted up an ensign to nations, And gathereth the driven away of Israel, And the scattered of Judah He assembleth, From the four wings of the earth.
For Folkene rejser han Banner, samler Israels bortdrevne Mænd, sanker Judas spredte Kvinder fra Verdens fire Hjørner.
13 And turned aside hath the envy of Ephraim, And the adversaries of Judah are cut off, Ephraim doth not envy Judah, And Judah doth not distress Ephraim.
Efraims Skinsyge viger, og Judas Avind svinder; Efraim er ikke skinsygt paa Juda, og Juda bærer ej Avind mod Efraim.
14 And they have flown on the shoulder of the Philistines westward, Together they spoil the sons of the east, Edom and Moab sending forth their hand, And sons of Ammon obeying them.
I Vest slaar de ned paa Filisternes Skulder, sammen plyndrer de Østens Sønner, mod Edom og Moab rækker de Haanden, Ammons Sønner lyder dem.
15 And Jehovah hath devoted to destruction The tongue of the sea of Egypt, And hath waved His hand over the river, In the terror of his wind, And hath smitten it at the seven streams, And hath caused [men] to tread [it] with shoes.
HERREN udtørrer Ægypterhavets Vig og svinger Haanden mod Floden i sin Aands Vælde; han kløver den i syv Bække, saa man kan gaa over med Sko;
16 And there hath been a highway, For the remnant of His people that is left, from Asshur, As there was for Israel in the day of his coming up out of the land of Egypt!
der bliver en banet Vej for dem af hans Folk, som levnes fra Assyrien, saaledes som der var for Israel, da det drog op fra Ægypten.
