Esajas bog 6 |
| 1992 | King James Version |
| 1 I kong Uzzijas dødsår så jeg Herren sidde på en højt ophøjet trone, og hans slæb fyldte templet. | 1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. |
| 2 Serafer stod omkring ham. De havde hver seks vinger; med de toskjute de ansigtet, med de to skjulte de fødderne, og med de to fløj de. | 2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. |
| 3 De råbte til hinanden: »Hellig, hellig, hellig er Hærskarers Herre, hele jorden er fuld af hans herlighed!« | 3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. |
| 4 Deres råb fik dørtappene til at ryste, og huset fyldtes med røg. | 4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. |
| 5 Da sagde jeg: »Ve mig, det er ude med mig, for jeg er en mand med urene læber, jeg bor i et folk med urene læber, og nu har mine øjne set kongen, Hærskarers Herre.« | 5 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts. |
| 6 Men en af seraferne fløj hen til mig; i hånden havde han et stykke gloende kul, som han havde taget fra alteret med en tang. | 6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar: |
| 7 Han berørte min mund og sagde: »Nu har dette rørt dine læber, din skyld er fjernet, og din synd er sonet.« | 7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged. |
| 8 Da hørte jeg Herren sige: »Hvem skal jeg sende? Hvem vil gå bud for os?« Jeg svarede: »Her er jeg, send mig!« | 8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me. |
| 9 Så sagde han: »Gå hen og sig til dette folk: I skal høre og høre, men intet fatte, I skal se og se, men intet forstå. | 9 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. |
| 10 Dæk dette folks hjerte med fedt, gør deres ører tunge, luk deres øjne til, for at de ikke skal se med øjnene, høre med ørerne og fatte med hjertet og vende om, så han må helbrede dem.« | 10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed. |
| 11 Jeg spurgte: »Hvor længe, Herre?« og han svarede: »Indtil byerne ligger øde uden indbyggere, husene uden mennesker ' og jorden er blevet en ørken.« | 11 Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate, |
| 12 Herren vil fjerne menneskene, og landet bliver øde og forladt. | 12 And the LORD have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land. |
| 13 Og er der endnu en tiendedel tilbage, skal også den udryddes, som når en terebinte eller en eg bliver fældet, og der bliver en stub tilbage. Dens stub er hellig sæd. | 13 But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof. |
