Ezekiel 7
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Og HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
2 “And as for you, son of man: Thus says the Lord God to the land of Israel: The end is coming, the end is coming, over the four regions of the earth.
Du, Menneskesøn, sig: Saa siger den Herre HERREN til Israels Land: Enden kommer, Enden kommer over Landet vidt og bredt!
3 Now the end is over you, and I will send my fury upon you. And I will judge you according to your ways. And I will place all your abominations before you.
Nu kommer Enden over dig, og jeg sender min Vrede imod dig og dømmer dig efter dine Veje og gengælder dig alle dine Vederstyggeligheder.
4 And my eye will not be lenient over you, and I will not take pity. Instead, I will set your ways upon you, and your abominations will be in your midst. And you shall know that I am the Lord.”
Jeg viser dig ingen Medynk eller Skaansel, men gengælder dig dine Veje, og dine Vederstyggeligheder skal blive i din Midte; og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
5 Thus says the Lord God: “One affliction, behold, one affliction is approaching.
Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Ulykke følger paa Ulykke; se, det kommer!
6 The end is coming, the end is coming. It has been vigilant against you. Behold, it is approaching.
Enden kommer, Enden kommer; den er vaagnet og tager Sigte paa dig; se, det kommer!
7 Destruction is coming over you, who live upon the earth. The time is approaching, the day of slaughter is near, and it is not of the glory of the mountains.
Turen kommer til dig, som bor i Landet; Tiden er inde, Dagen er nær, en Dag med Rædsel og ikke med Frydeskrig paa Bjergene.
8 Now, very soon, I will pour out my wrath upon you, and I will fulfill my fury in you. And I will judge you according to your ways, and I will set upon you all your crimes.
Nu udøser jeg snart min Harme over dig og udtømmer min Vrede paa dig, dømmer dig efter dine Veje og gengælder dig alle dine Vederstyggeligheder.
9 And my eye will not be lenient, nor will I take pity. Instead, I will place your ways upon you, and your abominations will be in your midst. And you shall know that I am the Lord, who is striking.
Jeg viser dig ingen Medynk eller Skaansel, men gengælder dig dine Veje, og dine Vederstyggeligheder skal blive i din Midte; og I skal kende, at jeg, HERREN, er den, som slaar.
10 Behold, the day! Behold, it approaches! Destruction has gone forth, the rod has blossomed, arrogance has germinated.
Se, Dagen! Se, det kommer; Turen kommer til dig! Riset blomstrer, Overmodet grønnes.
11 Iniquity has risen up into a rod of impiety. There shall be nothing left of them, and of their people, and of the sound of them. And there shall be no rest for them.
Vold rejser sig til et Ris over Gudløshed; der bliver intet tilbage af dem, intet af deres larmende Hob, intet af deres Gods, og der er ingen Herlighed iblandt dem.
12 The time is approaching; the day is very near. Whoever buys should not rejoice. And whoever sells should not mourn. For wrath is over all of their people.
Tiden er inde, Dagen er nær; Køberen skal ikke glæde sig og Sælgeren ikke sørge, thi Vrede kommer over al den larmende Hob derinde.
13 For whoever sells will not return to what he has sold, but as yet their life will be among the living. For the vision concerning their entire multitude will not turn back. And man will not be strengthened in the iniquity of his life.
Thi Sælgeren skal ikke vende tilbage til det solgte, om han end bliver i Live; thi Synet om al den larmende Hob derinde tages ikke tilbage, og ingen skal styrke sit Liv ved sin Misgerning.
14 Sound the trumpet! Let everyone be prepared! And yet there is no one who may go to battle. For my wrath is over all their people.
Man støder i Hornet og gør alt rede, men ingen drager i krig; thi min Vrede kommer over al den larmende Hob derinde.
15 The sword is outside, and the pestilence and the famine are inside. Whoever is in the field will die by the sword. And whoever is in the city will be devoured by the pestilence and the famine.
Sværd ude og Pest og Hunger inde! De, der er i Marken, omkommer for Sværd, og dem, der er i Byen, fortærer Hunger og Pest.
16 And those who flee from among them will be saved. And they will be among the mountains, like doves in steep valleys, with every one of them trembling, each one because of his iniquity.
Og selv om nogle af dem undslipper og naar op i Bjergene som Kløfternes Duer, skal de alle dø, hver for sin Misgerning.
17 All hands will be weakened, and all knees will flow with water.
Alle Hænder er slappe, alle Knæ flyder som Vand.
18 And they will wrap themselves with haircloth, and dread will cover them. And shame will be upon every face, and baldness will be upon all of their heads.
De klæder sig i Sæk, og Rædsel omhyller dem; alle Ansigter er skamfulde, alle Hoveder skaldede.
19 Their silver will be thrown away, and their gold will be like a dunghill. Their silver and their gold will have no power to free them in the day of the fury of the Lord. They will not satisfy their soul, and their bellies will not be filled, because of the scandal of their iniquity.
Deres Sølv kaster de ud paa Gaden, deres Guld regnes for Snavs; deres Sølv og Guld kan ikke redde dem paa HERRENS Vredes Dag; de kan ikke stille deres Hunger eller fylde deres Bug dermed, thi det var dem Aarsag til Skyld.
20 And they have set arrogance as the ornament of their necklaces, and they have made images of their abominations and graven idols. Because of this, I have let it be an uncleanness for them.
I dets straalende Pragt satte de deres Stolthed, og deres vederstyggelige Billeder, deres væmmelige Guder, lavede de deraf: derfor gør jeg det til Snavs for dem.
21 And I will give it into the hands of foreigners as a spoil, and to the impious of the earth as a prey, and they will defile it.
Jeg giver det som Bytte i de fremmedes Haand og som Rov til de mest gudløse paa Jorden, og de skal vanhellige det.
22 And I will avert my face from them, and they will violate my place of mystery. And untamed persons will enter into it, and they will defile it.
Jeg vender mit Aasyn fra dem og man skal vanhellige mit Klenodie, Ransmænd skal trænge ind og vanhellige det.
23 Cause it to be closed. For the land has been filled with the judgment of blood, and the city is full of iniquity.
Gør Lænkerne rede! Thi Landet er fuldt af Blodskyld og Byen af Vold.
24 And I will lead in the most sinful among the Gentiles, and they will possess their houses. And I will cause the arrogance of the powerful to be quieted. And they will possess their sanctuaries.
Jeg henter de værste af Folkene, og de skal tage Husene i Eje; jeg gør Ende paa de mægtiges Stolthed, og deres Helligdomme skal vanhelliges.
25 When anguish overwhelms them, they will seek peace, and there will be none.
Der opstaar Angst; man søger Redning, men finder den ikke.
26 Disturbance will follow after disturbance, and rumor after rumor. And they will seek the vision of the prophet, and the law will perish from the priest, and counsel will perish from the elders.
Uheld følger paa Uheld, Rygte paa Rygte; man skal tigge Profeten om et Syn, Præsten kommer til kort med Vejledning og de Ældste med Raad.
27 The king will mourn, and the prince will be clothed with grief, and the hands of the people of the earth will be greatly disturbed. I will act toward them in accord with their own way, and I will judge them in accord with their own judgments. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
Kongen sørger, Fyrsten hyller sig i Rædsel, og Landboernes Hænder lammes af Forfærdelse. Jeg gør med dem efter deres Færd og dømmer dem, som de fortjener; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
