< Ezekiel 47 >

1 Derpå 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.
And he turned me back to the gate of the house. And behold, waters went out, from under the threshold of the house, toward the east. For the face of the house looked toward the east. But the waters descended on the right side of the temple, toward the south of the altar.
2 Så førte han mig ud gennenm Nordporten og rundt udenom til den ydre Østport, og se, Vand rislede frem fra Sydsiden.
And he led me out, along the way of the north gate, and he turned me back toward the way outside the exterior gate, the way which looked toward the east. And behold, the waters overflowed on the right side.
3 Derpå gik Manden ud mod Øst med en Målesnor i Hånden, og da han havde målt 1000 Alen, lod han mig gå gennem Vandet, Vand til Anklerne.
Then the man who held the rope in his hand departed toward the east, and he measured one thousand cubits. And he led me forward, through the water, up to the ankles.
4 Da han atter havde målt 1000 Alen, lod han mig på ny gå gennem Vandet, Vand til Knæene; og da han atter havde målt 1000 Alen, lod han mig på ny gå gennem Vandet, som der nåede til Hoften.
And again he measured one thousand, and he led me forward, through the water, up to the knees.
5 Da han atter havde målt 1000 Alen, var det en Strøm, som jeg ikke kunde vade over, thi Vandet gik så højt, at man måtte svømme over; det var en Strøm, man ikke kunde vade over,
And he measured one thousand, and he led me forward, through the water, up to the waist. And he measured one thousand, into a torrent, through which I was not able to pass. For the waters had risen to become a profound torrent, which was not able to be crossed.
6 Da sagde han til mig: "Har du set det, Menneskesøn?" Og han førte mig tilbage langs Strømmens Bred.
And he said to me: “Son of man, certainly you have seen.” And he led me out, and he turned me back to the bank of the torrent.
7 Da jeg kom tilbage, se, da var der ved Strømmens Bred en stor Mængde Træer på begge Sider;
And when I had turned myself around, behold, on the bank of the torrent, there were very many trees on both sides.
8 og han sagde til mig: "Dette Vand løber ud i Østerkredsen og ned i Araba, og når det falder ud i Havet, Salthavet, bliver Vandet der sundt;
And he said to me: “These waters, which go forth toward the hillocks of sand to the east, and which descend to the plains of the desert, will enter the sea, and will go out, and the waters will be healed.
9 alle de levende Væsener, hvoraf det vrimler, skal leve, overalt hvor Strømmen kommer hen, og der skal være en stor Mængde Fisk; thi når dette Vand kommer derhen, bliver Havvandet sundt, og alt skal leve, hvor Strømmen kommer hen.
And every living soul that moves, wherever the torrent arrives, will live. And there will be more than enough fish, after these waters have arrived there, and they will be healed. And all things will live, where the torrent arrives.
10 Fiskere skal stå ved det fra En-Gedi til En-Eglajim; et Sted til at udspænde Fiskegarn skal det være; dels Fisk skal være som det store Havs Fisk, såre mange.
And fishermen will stand over these waters. There will be the drying of nets, from Engedi even to Eneglaim. There will be very many kinds of fish within it: a very great multitude, like the fish of the great sea.
11 Men dets Sumpe og Vandhuller skal ikke blive sunde; af dem skal udvindes Salt.
But on its shore and in the marshes, they will not be healed. For these will be made into salt pits.
12 På begge Flodens Bredder skal der vokse alle Hånde Frugttræer, hvis Blade ikke falder af, og hvis Frugter aldrig får Ende; hver Måned bærer de nye Frugter; thi dens Vand udspringer i Helligdommen. Frugterne skal tjene til Føde og Bladene til Lægedom."
And above the torrent, on its banks on both sides, every kind of fruit tree will rise up. Their foliage will not fall away, and their fruit will not fail. Every single month they will bring forth first-fruits. For its waters will go forth from the sanctuary. And its fruits will be for food, and its leaves will be for medicine.”
13 Så 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.
Thus says the Lord God: “This is the border, by which you shall possess the land, in accord with the twelve tribes of Israel. For Joseph shall have a double portion.
14 I skal alle uden Undtagelse tage det Land i Eje, som jeg med løftet Hånd svor at give eders Fædre; det skal nu tilfalde eder som Arvelod.
And you shall possess it, each one in equal manner as his brother. I lifted up my hand over it, so that I might give it to your fathers. And this land shall fall to you as a possession.
15 Således skal Landets Nordgrænse være: Fra det store Hav i Retning af Hetlon til det Sted, hvor Vejen går til Zedad,
Now this is the border of the land toward the northern region, from the great sea, by the way of Hethlon, arriving at Zedad:
16 Hamat, Berota, Sibrajim, mellem Damaskuss og Hamats Områder, Hazar-Enon ved Haurans Grænse.
Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the confines of Hamath, the house of Ticon, which is beside the border of Hauran,
17 Grænsen går fra det store Hav til Hazar-Enon, således at Damaskuss Område ligger norden for ved Siden af Hamat. Det er Nordgrænsen.
and the border will be from the sea, even to the entrance of Enon, at the border of Damascus, and from the north to the north, at the border of Hamath, on the northern side.
18 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 Øsfgrænsen.
Moreover, the eastern region will be from the midst of Hauran, and from the midst of Damascus, and from the midst of Gilead, and from the midst of the land of Israel, to the Jordan, marking the boundary to the eastern sea. For so shall you measure the eastern region.
19 Sydgrænsen: Fra Tamar over Meribas Vand ved Kadesj til Bækken, ud til det store Hav. Det er Sydgrænsen.
Now the southern region, toward the meridian, will be from Tamar, even to the Waters of Contradiction at Kadesh, and from the Torrent, even to the great sea. And this is the southern region, toward the meridian.
20 Vestgrænsen: Det store Hav danner Grænse til tværs over for det Sted, hvor Vejen går til Hamat. Det er Vestgrænsen.
And the region toward the sea will have its confines from the great sea continuing directly until one arrives at Hamath. This is the region of the sea.
21 Dette Land skal I udskifte iblandt eder efter Israels Stammer;
And you shall divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.
22 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.
And you shall distribute it by lot as an inheritance, for yourselves and for the new arrival who will be added to you, who will conceive sons in your midst. And they shall be to you as the indigenous among the sons of Israel. They shall divide the possession with you, in the midst of the tribes of Israel.
23 I den Stamme, hvor den fremmede bor, skal I give ham hans Arvelod, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
And in whatever tribe the new arrival will be, there you shall give a possession to him, says the Lord God.”
