1 Og HE ENs Ord kom til mig således

2 Du, Menneskesøn, sig: Så siger den Herre HE EN til Israels Land: Enden kommer, Enden kommer over Landet vidt og bredt!

3 Nu kommer Enden over dig, og jeg sender min Vrede imod dig og dømmer dig efter dine Veje og gengælder dig alle dine Vederstyggeigheder.

4 Jeg viser dig ingen Medynk eller Skånsel, men gengælder dig dine Veje, og dine Vederstyggeligheder skal blive i din Midte; og du skal kende, at jeg er HE EN.

5 siger den Herre HE EN: Ulykke følger på Ulykke; se, det kommer!

6 Enden kommer, Enden kommer; den er vågnet og tager Sigte på dig; se, det kommer!

7 Turen kommer til dig, som bor i Landet; Tiden er inde, Dagen er nær, en Dag med ædsel og ikke med Frydeskrig på Bjergene.

8 Nu udøser jeg snart min Harme over dig og udtømmer min Vrede på dig, dømmer dig efter dine Veje og gengælder dig alle dine Vederstyggeligheder.

9 Jeg viser dig ingen Medynk eller Skånsel, men gengælder dig dine Veje, og dine Vederstyggeligheder skal blive i din Midte; og I skal kende, at jeg, HE EN, er den, som slår.

10 Se, Dagen! Se, det kommer; Turen kommer til dig"! iset blomstrer, Overmodet grønnes.

11 Vold rejser sig til et is 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 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 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 Man støder i Hornet og gør alt rede, men ingen drager i krig; thi min Vrede kommer over al den larmende Hob derinde.

15 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 Og selv om nogle af dem undslipper og når op i Bjergene som Kløfternes Duer, skal de alle dø, hver for sin Misgerning.

17 Alle Hænder er slappe, alle Knæ flyder som Vand.

18 De klæder sig i Sæk, og ædsel omhyller dem; alle Ansigter er skamfulde, alle Hoveder skaldede.

19 Deres Sølv kaster de ud på Gaden, deres Guld regnes for Snavs; deres Sølv og Guld kan ikke redde dem på HE ENs Vredes Dag; de kan ikke stille deres Hunger eller fylde deres Bug dermed, thi det var dem Årsag til Skyld.

20 I dets strålende Pragt satte de deres Stolthed, og deres vederstyggelige Billeder, deres væmmelige Guder, lavede de deraf: derfor gør jeg det til Snavs for dem.

21 Jeg giver det som Bytte i de fremmedes Hånd og som ov til de mest gudløse på Jorden, og de skal vanhellige det.

22 Jeg vender mit Åsyn fra dem og man skal vanhellige mit Kleodie, ansmænd skal trænge ind og vanhellige det.

23 Gør Lænkerne rede! Thi Landet er fuldt af Blodskyld og Byen af Vold.

24 Jeg henter de værste af Folkene, og de skal tage Husene i Eje; jeg gør Ende på de mægtiges Stolthed, og deres Helligdomme skal vanhelliges.

25 Der opstår Angst; man søger edning, men finder den ikke.

26 Uheld følger på Uheld, ygte på ygte; man skal tigge Profeten om et Syn, Præsten kommer til kort med Vejledning og de Ældste med åd.

27 Kongen sørger, Fyrsten hyller sig i ædsel, 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 HE EN.

623. It is clear from the Word that 'the earth' is said to be 'filled with violence' on account of their filthy desires, most of all on account of the desires constituting self-love, or extreme arrogance. It is called 'violence when people do violence to holy things by desecrating them, as those before the Flood did, who immersed doctrinal matters concerning faith in every possible kind of evil desire. As in Ezekiel,

I will turn My face 1 away from them, and they will profane My secret place. And let robbers come into it and they will profane it. Make the chain, for the land is full of the judgement of blood, and the city is full of violence. Ezekiel 7:22-24.

This describes who the violent are, and that they are such as mentioned. In the same prophet,

They will eat their bread in anxiety, and drink their waters in desolation, that her land may be devastated of the fullness that is in it, on account of the violence of all who dwell in it. Ezekiel 12:19.

'The bread which they will eat in anxiety' means celestial things, the waters which they will drink in desolation' the spiritual things, which they did violence to, that is, profaned.

[2] In Isaiah,

Their webs will not become clothing, nor will they be covered in their works. Their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands. Isaiah 59:6.

Here 'webs' and 'clothing' have reference to the things of the understanding or thought, while 'iniquity' and 'violence' have reference to those of the will or actions. In Jonah,

Let every one turn from his evil way, and from the violence which is in his hands. Jonah 3:8.

Here 'evil way' has reference to falsities constituting the understanding, and 'violence' to evils constituting the will. In Jeremiah,

There will come in a year, rumour and violence in the land. Jeremiah 51:46.

'Rumour' stands for things of the understanding, 'violence' for those of the will. In Isaiah,

He did no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth. Isaiah 53:9.

Here 'violence' concerns things of the will, 'deceit in his mouth' those of the understanding.

Ezekiel 12

Studija

   

1 The word of Yahweh also came to me, saying,

2 Son of man, you dwell in the midst of the rebellious house, who have eyes to see, and don't see, who have ears to hear, and don't hear; for they are a rebellious house.

3 Therefore, you son of man, prepare your stuff for moving, and move by day in their sight; and you shall move from your place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they are a rebellious house.

4 You shall bring forth your stuff by day in their sight, as stuff for moving; and you shall go forth yourself at even in their sight, as when men go forth into exile.

5 Dig through the wall in their sight, and carry your stuff out that way.

6 In their sight you shall bear it on your shoulder, and carry it forth in the dark; you shall cover your face, so that you don't see the land: for I have set you for a sign to the house of Israel.

7 I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for removing, and in the even I dug through the wall with my hand; I brought it forth in the dark, and bore it on my shoulder in their sight.

8 In the morning came the word of Yahweh to me, saying,

9 Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, What are you doing?

10 Say to them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: This burden [concerns] the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel among whom they are.

11 Say, I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done to them; they shall go into exile, into captivity.

12 The prince who is among them shall bear on his shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby: he shall cover his face, because he shall not see the land with his eyes.

13 My net also will I spread on him, and he shall be taken in my snare; and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, though he shall die there.

14 I will scatter toward every wind all who are around him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them.

15 They shall know that I am Yahweh, when I shall disperse them among the nations, and scatter them through the countries.

16 But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the nations where they come; and they shall know that I am Yahweh.

17 Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

18 Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink your water with trembling and with fearfulness;

19 and tell the people of the land, Thus says the Lord Yahweh concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread with fearfulness, and drink their water in dismay, that her land may be desolate, [and despoiled] of all that is therein, because of the violence of all those who dwell therein.

20 The cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be a desolation; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.

21 The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

22 Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?

23 Tell them therefore, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but Tell them, The days are at hand, and the fulfillment of every vision.

24 For there shall be no more any false vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.

25 For I am Yahweh; I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall be performed; it shall be no more deferred: for in your days, rebellious house, will I speak the word, and will perform it, says the Lord Yahweh.

26 Again the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

27 Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that he sees is for many day to come, and he prophesies of times that are far off.

28 Therefore tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: None of my words shall be deferred any more, but the word which I shall speak shall be performed, says the Lord Yahweh.
