1 I det sjette År på den femte dag i den sjette måned da jeg sad i mit Hus og Judas Ældste sad hos mig, faldt den Herre HERRENs Hånd på mig.
1 It came about in the sixth year, on the fifth day of the sixth month, as I was sitting in my house with the elders of Judah sitting before me, that the hand of the Lord God fell on me there.
2 Og jeg skuede, og se, der var noget ligesom en Mand; fra hans Hofter og nedefter var der Ild, og fra Hofterne og opefter så det ud som strålende Lys, som funklende Malm.
2 Then I looked, and behold, a likeness as the appearance of a man; from His loins and downward there was the appearance of fire, and from His loins and upward the appearance of brightness, like the appearance of glowing metal.
3 Han rakte noget som en Hånd ud og greb mig ved en Lok af mit Hovedhår, og Ånden løftede mig op mellem Himmel og Jord og førte mig i Guds Syner til Jerusalem, til Indgangen til den indre Forgårds Nordport, hvor Nidkærhedsbilledet, som vakte Nidkærhed, stod.
3 He stretched out the form of a hand and caught me by a lock of my head; and the Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the entrance of the north gate of the inner court, where the seat of the idol of jealousy, which provokes to jealousy, was located.
5 Og han sagde til mig: "Menneskesøn, løft dit Blik mod Nord!" Jeg løftede mit Blik mod Nord, og se, norden for Alterporten stod Nidkærhedsbilledet, ved Indgangen.
5 Then He said to me, “Son of man, raise your eyes now toward the north.” So I raised my eyes toward the north, and behold, to the north of the altar gate was this idol of jealousy at the entrance.
6 Og han sagde til mig: "Menneskesøn, ser du, hvad de gør? Store er de Vederstyggeligheder, Israels Hus øver her, så jeg må vige langt bort fra min Helligdom. Men du skal få endnu større Vederstyggeligheder at se!"
6 And He said to me, “Son of man, do you see what they are doing, the great abominations which the house of Israel are committing here, so that I would be far from My sanctuary? But yet you will see still greater abominations.”
10 Og da jeg kom derind og skuede, se, da var alskens væmmelige Billeder af Kryb og kvæg og alle Israels Huses Afgudsbilleder indridset rundt om på Væggen.
10 So I entered and looked, and behold, every form of creeping things and beasts and detestable things, with all the idols of the house of Israel, were carved on the wall all around.
11 Og halvfjerdsindstyve af Israels Huses Ældste med Jaazanja, Sjafans Søn, i deres Midte stod foran dem, hver med sit Røgelsekar i Hånden, medens Røgelseskyens Duft steg op.
11 Standing in front of them were seventy elders of the house of Israel, with Jaazaniah the son of Shaphan standing among them, each man with his censer in his hand and the fragrance of the cloud of incense rising.
12 Da sagde han til mig: "Ser du, Menneskesøn, hvad Israels Huses Ældste øver i Mørke hver i sine Billedkamre? Thi de siger: HERREN ser intet, HERREN har forladt Landet!"
12 Then He said to me, “Son of man, do you see what the elders of the house of Israel are committing in the dark, each man in the room of his carved images? For they say, ‘The Lord does not see us; the Lord has forsaken the land.’”
16 Så førte han mig hen til HERRENs Huss indre Forgård, og se, ved Indgangen til HERRENs Helligdom mellem Forhallen og Alteret var der omtrent fem og tyve Mænd; med Ryggen mod HERRENs Helligdom og Ansigtet mod Øst tilbad de Solen.
16 Then He brought me into the inner court of the Lord’s house. And behold, at the entrance to the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about twenty-five men with their backs to the temple of the Lord and their faces toward the east; and they were prostrating themselves eastward toward the sun.
17 Og han sagde til mig: "Ser du det, Menneskesøn? Har Judas Hus ikke nok i at øve de Vederstyggeligheder her, siden de fylder Landet med Vold og krænker mig endnu mere? Se, hvor de sender Stank op i Næsen på mig"!
17 He said to me, “Do you see this, son of man? Is it too light a thing for the house of Judah to commit the abominations which they have committed here, that they have filled the land with violence and provoked Me repeatedly? For behold, they are putting the twig to their nose.
18 Men derfor vil også jeg handle med dem i Vrede; jeg viser dem ingen Medynk eller Skånsel, og selv om de højlydt råber mig ind i øret vil jeg ikke høre dem.
18 Therefore, I indeed will deal in wrath. My eye will have no pity nor will I spare; and though they cry in My ears with a loud voice, yet I will not listen to them.”
