Esekiel 18

1 Og Herrens ord kom til meg; han sagde:

And it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.

2 Korleis kann de bruka dette ordtøket i Israels land og segja: «Federne åt sure druvor, og borni vart sårtennte.»

What? [is] to you you [are] speaking a proverb the proverb this on [the] land of Israel saying parents they eat sour grape[s] and [the] teeth of the children they are blunt.

3 So sant som eg liver, segjer Herren, Herren, de skal ikkje få bruka dette ordtøket meir i Israel.

[by] [the] life Of me [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh if it will belong to you again to speak a proverb the proverb this in Israel.

4 Sjå, alle sjælerne er mine, både sjæli åt faren og sjæli åt sonen; mine er dei; den sjæl som syndar, ho skal døy.

Here! all lives [belong] to me they as [the] life of the parent and as [the] life of the child [belong] to me they the soul which sins it it will die.

5 Og når ein mann er rettferdig og gjer rett og rettferd:

And anyone for he will be righteous and he will do justice and righteousness.

6 ikkje et offermat på fjelli og ikkje kaster augo sine på dei ufysne avgudarne åt Israels-lyden og ikkje skjemmer kona åt grannen sin og ikkje kjem nær ei kvinna medan ho er urein,

To the mountains not he has eaten and eyes his not he has lifted up to [the] idols of [the] house of Israel and [the] wife of neighbor his not he has defiled and to a woman menstruation not he drew near.

7 og ikkje er hard imot nokon, let skuldmannen få pantet sitt att, ikkje fer med ransverk, gjev den hungrige sitt brød og klæder den nakne,

And anyone not he oppressed pledge his a debt he returned robbery not he robbed food his to [the] hungry he gave and [the] naked he covered clothing.

8 ikkje låner ut for renta og ikkje tek yvermål, held si hand burte frå det som rangt er, dømer rett dom mann og mann imillom,

For interest not he lent and interest not he took from injustice he turned away hand his justice of faithfulness he did between a person and a person.

9 ferdast i mine bod og held mine lover, so han gjer det som rett er - han er rettferdig, liva skal han, segjer Herren, Herren.

In statutes my he walked and judgments my he has kept by doing faithfulness [is] righteous he certainly he will live [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.

10 Men han fær kann henda ein son som tek til med valdsverk, renner ut blod eller gjer eitkvart sovore

And he will father a son violent [who] sheds blood and he will do alas! any one of these [things].

11 - endå han ikkje gjorde noko slikt - for han et ogso offermat på fjelli, skjemmer kona åt grannen sin,

And he all these [things] not he did for also to the mountains he has eaten and [the] wife of neighbor his he has defiled.

12 er hard imot armingen og fatigmannen, fer med ransverk, gjev ikkje pant tilbake, kaster augo sine på dei ufysne avgudar, fer med styggedom,

[the] poor And [the] needy he has oppressed robberies he has robbed a pledge not he returned and to the idols he has lifted up eyes his abomination he has done.

13 låner ut for rente og tek yvermål - og so skulde han liva! Han skal ikkje liva. Alle desse styggjor gjorde han; banen hans skal det verta, blodet hans skal koma yver honom.

For interest he has lent and interest he has taken and will he live? not he will live all the abominations these he has done certainly he will be put to death blood his on him it will be.

14 Men sjå, so fær han ein son, og han ser alle synderne åt far sin som han gjorde, han ottast og gjer ikkje etter deim;

And there! he has fathered a child and he has seen all [the] sins of father his which he did and he saw and not he did like them.

15 han et ikkje offermat på fjelli og kastar ikkje augo sine dei ufysne avgudarne åt Israels-lyden, skjemmer ikkje kona åt grannen sin

On the mountains not he has eaten and eyes his not he has lifted up to [the] idols of [the] house of Israel [the] wife of neighbor his not he has defiled.

16 og er ikkje hard mot nokon, tek ikkje pant og fer ikkje med ransverk, gjev den hungrige sitt brød og klæder den nakne,

And anyone not he has oppressed a pledge not he has taken as pledge and robbery not he has robbed food his to [the] hungry he has given and [the] naked he has covered clothing.

17 held handi si tilbake frå armingen, tek ikkje renta og yvermål, gjer etter mine lover og ferdast i mine bod. Han skal ikkje døy for misgjerningi åt far sin, liva skal han.

From [the] poor he has turned away hand his interest and interest not he has taken judgments my he has done in statutes my he has walked he not he will die for [the] iniquity of father his certainly he will live.

18 Far hans som for med valdsverk og rana frå bror og gjorde det som ikkje er godt midt i lyden sin, sjå han laut døy for si misgjerning.

Father his for he has extorted extortion he has robbed robbery of a brother and [that] which not [was] good he has done in among people his and there! he will die for iniquity his.

19 Men de segjer: «Kvi skal ikkje sonen bera syndeskuldi åt far sin?» Sonen hev då gjort rett og rettferd alle mine bod hev han halde og gjort etter deim; liva skal han.

And you say why? not has he borne the child in [the] iniquity of the parent and the child justice and righteousness he has done all statutes my he has kept and he has done them certainly he will live.

20 Den sjæli som syndar, ho skal døy. Son skal ikkje bera syndeskuldi åt far sin, og far skal ikkje bera syndeskuldi åt son sin. Yver den rettferdige skal hans rettferd vera, og yver den gudlause skal hans gudløysa vera.

The soul which sins it it will die a child not he will bear - in [the] iniquity of the parent and a parent not he will bear in [the] iniquity of the child [the] righteousness of the righteous [person] on him it will be and [the] wickedness of (the wicked [person] *QK) on him it will be.

21 Men når den ugudlege vender um frå alle sine synder som han hev gjort, og held alle mine bod og gjer rett og rettferd, då skal han liva og ikkje døy.

And the wicked [person] if he will turn away from all (sins his *QK) which he has done and he will keep all statutes my and he will do justice and righteousness certainly he will live not he will die.

22 Alle hans misgjerningar som han hev gjort, skal vera gløymde; ved si rettferd som han gjorde, skal han liva.

All transgressions his which he has done not they will be remembered to him for righteousness his which he has done he will live.

23 Skulde eg hava hugnad i det, at den ugudlege døyr? segjer Herren, Herren. Måtte ikkje det fegna meg, at han vendar um frå sin veg og liver?

¿ Really do I take pleasure in [the] death of [the] wicked [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh ¿ not when turning back he from ways his and he will live.

24 Men når ein rettferdig vender um frå si rettferd og gjer urett, alle slike styggjor som den ugudlege gjer, skulde han gjera det og liva? All hans rettferd som han gjorde, skal verta gløymd. For den truløysa han for med, for det skal han døy.

And when turns away [the] righteous from righteousness his and he will do injustice according to all the abominations which he did the wicked [person] he will do and will he live? all (righteousness his *QK) which he did not they will be remembered for unfaithfulness his which he has acted unfaithfully and for sin his which he has sinned for them he will die.

25 Og de segjer: «Herrens åtferd er ikkje rett.» Høyr då, du Israels-lyd! Er ikkje mi åtferd rett? Er det ikkje dykkar åtferd som ikkje er rett?

And you say not it is correct [the] way of [the] Lord listen please O house of Israel ¿ way my not is it correct ¿ not ways your not are they correct.

26 Når ein rettferdig vender um frå si rettferd og gjer urett, so skal han difor døy; for sin urett som han gjorde, skal han døy.

When turns away [the] righteous from righteousness his and he will do injustice and he will die on them for injustice his which he has done he will die.

27 Og når ein ugudleg vender um frå si gudløysa, som han hev gjort, og gjer rett og rettferd, so skal han halda si sjæl i live.

And when turns away [the] wicked from wickedness his which he has done and he did justice and righteousness he life his he will preserve alive.

28 For han såg alle sine misgjerningar som han hadde gjort, og vende um frå deim; liva skal han, han skal ikkje døy.

And he saw (and he turned away *Qk) from all transgressions his which he had done certainly he will live not he will die.

29 Men Israels-lyden segjer: «Herrens åtferd er ikkje rett.» Er ikkje mi åtferd rett, du Israels lyd? Er det ikkje dykkar åtferd som ikkje er rett?

And they say [the] house of Israel not it is correct [the] way of [the] Lord ¿ ways my not are they correct O house of Israel ¿ not ways your not is it correct.

30 Difor vil eg døma dykk, du Israels lyd, ein og kvar etter hans åtferd, segjer Herren, Herren. Vend um og vend dykk burt frå alle dykkar misgjerningar, so ikkje skuld skal føra dykk til fall!

Therefore everyone according to ways his I will judge you O house of Israel [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh turn back and turn away from all transgressions your and not it will become for you a stumbling block iniquity.

31 Kasta frå dykk alle dykkar misgjerningar som de hev misfare dykk med, og få dykk eit nytt hjarta og ei ny ånd! For kvi vil de døy, du Israels lyd?

Throw away from with you all transgressions your which you have transgressed by them and make for yourselves a heart new and a spirit new and why? will you die O house of Israel.

32 For eg hev ikkje hugnad i dauden åt den som døyr, segjer Herren, Herren. So vend då um, so skal de liva!

For not I take pleasure in [the] death of the [one who] dies [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh and turn away and live.
