Ezekiel, 14

1. Next, some elders of Israel visited me and while they were sitting with me,

1. Then came certain of the elders of Israel to me; and sat before me.

2. the word of Yahweh was addressed to me as follows,

2. And the word of the LORD came to me:

3. 'Son of man, these men have enshrined their foul idols in their hearts and placed the cause of their sinning right before their eyes. Why should I let myself be consulted by them?

3. "Son of man, these men have taken their idols into their hearts, and set the stumbling block of their iniquity before their faces; should I let myself be inquired of at all by them?

4. So speak to them; tell them this, "Lord Yahweh says this: Every member of the House of Israel who enshrines his foul idols in his heart and places the cause of his sinning right before his eyes, and who then approaches the prophet, will get this answer from me, Yahweh, as the multiplicity of his idols deserves,

4. Therefore speak to them, and say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: Any man of the house of Israel who takes his idols into his heart and sets the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and yet comes to the prophet, I the LORD will answer him myself because of the multitude of his idols,

5. and in this way I hope to win back the hearts of the House of Israel who have all been estranged from me by their foul idols."

5. that I may lay hold of the hearts of the house of Israel, who are all estranged from me through their idols.

6. 'So say to the House of Israel, "The Lord Yahweh says this: Come back, turn away from your foul idols, turn your backs on all your loathsome practices;

6. "Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord GOD: Repent and turn away from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.

7. for if any member of the House of Israel -- or any foreigner living in Israel -- deserts me to enshrine his foul idols in his heart and places the cause of his sinning right before his eyes and then approaches a prophet to consult me through him, he will get his answer from me, Yahweh.

7. For any one of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, who separates himself from me, taking his idols into his heart and putting the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and yet comes to a prophet to inquire for himself of me, I the LORD will answer him myself;

8. I shall set my face against that person; I shall make him an example and a byword; I shall rid my people of him, and you will know that I am Yahweh.

8. and I will set my face against that man, I will make him a sign and a byword and cut him off from the midst of my people; and you shall know that I am the LORD.

9. And if the prophet is seduced into saying something, I, Yahweh, shall have seduced that prophet; I shall point my finger at him and rid my people Israel of him.

9. And if the prophet be deceived and speak a word, I, the LORD, have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand against him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.

10. Both will be punished for their guilt; the prophet's punishment will be the same as that of the person who consults him,

10. And they shall bear their punishment -- the punishment of the prophet and the punishment of the inquirer shall be alike --

11. so that the House of Israel will never stray from me again or defile themselves again with these crimes, but be my people and I their God -- declares the Lord Yahweh." '

11. that the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, nor defile themselves any more with all their transgressions, but that they may be my people and I may be their God, says the Lord GOD."

12. The word of Yahweh was addressed to me:

12. And the word of the LORD came to me:

13. 'Son of man, when a country sins against me by being unfaithful and I point my finger at it and destroy its supply of food, inflicting famine on it and denuding it of human and animal,

13. "Son of man, when a land sins against me by acting faithlessly, and I stretch out my hand against it, and break its staff of bread and send famine upon it, and cut off from it man and beast,

14. even if the three men, Noah, Danel and Job, were living in it, they would save no one but themselves by their uprightness -- declares the Lord Yahweh.

14. even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they would deliver but their own lives by their righteousness, says the Lord GOD.

15. Were I to unleash wild beasts on that country to rob it of its children and reduce it to a desert which no one would dare to cross because of the animals,

15. If I cause wild beasts to pass through the land, and they ravage it, and it be made desolate, so that no man may pass through because of the beasts;

16. even if these three men were living there, as I live -- declares the Lord Yahweh -- they would not be able to save either son or daughter; they alone would be saved, and the country would become a desert.

16. even if these three men were in it, as I live, says the Lord GOD, they would deliver neither sons nor daughters; they alone would be delivered, but the land would be desolate.

17. Were I to bring the sword down on that country and say, "Sword, cross the country!" so as to denude it of human and animal,

17. Or if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Let a sword go through the land; and I cut off from it man and beast;

18. even if these three men were living there, as I live -- declares the Lord Yahweh -- they would not be able to save either son or daughter; they alone would be saved.

18. though these three men were in it, as I live, says the Lord GOD, they would deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they alone would be delivered.

19. If I were to send the plague on that country and vent my fury on it by bloodshed, so as to denude it of human and animal,

19. Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my wrath upon it with blood, to cut off from it man and beast;

20. even if Noah and Danel and Job were living there, as I live -- declares the Lord Yahweh -- they would be able to save neither son nor daughter, only themselves by their uprightness.

20. even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were in it, as I live, says the Lord GOD, they would deliver neither son nor daughter; they would deliver but their own lives by their righteousness.

21. 'The Lord Yahweh says this, "Even if I send my four dreadful scourges on Jerusalem-sword, famine, wild beasts and plague -- to denude it of human and animal,

21. "For thus says the Lord GOD: How much more when I send upon Jerusalem my four sore acts of judgment, sword, famine, evil beasts, and pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast!

22. even so, there will be a remnant left, a few men and women who come through; when they come to you and you see their conduct and actions, you will take comfort in spite of the disaster which I have brought on Jerusalem, in spite of all I have brought on her.

22. Yet, if there should be left in it any survivors to lead out sons and daughters, when they come forth to you, and you see their ways and their doings, you will be consoled for the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, for all that I have brought upon it.

23. They will comfort you, when you see their conduct and actions, and so you will know that I have not done in vain all I have done to her -- declares the Lord Yahweh." '

23. They will console you, when you see their ways and their doings; and you shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, says the Lord GOD."

Fußnoten:

14:1-5 - Der Herr offenbart, dass diejenigen, die in ihrem Herzen die Führung von Götzen suchen, von seiner Gegenwart abgeschnitten werden. Gott verlangt völlige Hingabe an ihn und verurteilt Götzendienst im Herzen (siehe auch 1. Johannes 5:21 und Jeremia 10:14-15).

14:6-11 - Der Herr ruft Israel zur Buße auf und betont, dass selbst wenn die Gerechten Fürsprache einlegen, nur diejenigen gerettet werden, die Buße tun. Die persönliche Verantwortung vor Gott wird betont (siehe auch Hesekiel 18:20 und Matthäus 4:17).

14:12-20 - Gott verkündet das Gericht über das Land und berücksichtigt dabei die Schlechtigkeit des Volkes. Durch Naturkatastrophen verspricht der Herr, Israel zu reinigen und zu echter Reue aufzurufen (siehe auch Amos 3,6 und Offenbarung 9,20-21).

Verse im Zusammenhang mit Ezekiel, 14:

Hesekiel Kapitel 14 befasst sich mit dem Götzendienst im Herzen und der Unvermeidlichkeit des Gerichts. Wie reagiert Gott auf die Heuchelei Israels? Dieser eindringliche Text warnt vor verstecktem Götzendienst und behauptet, dass nicht einmal die Anwesenheit rechtschaffener Männer das Gericht über Jerusalem verhindern könnte. Das Kapitel betont die individuelle Verantwortung und die Gerechtigkeit Gottes, selbst wenn er sein auserwähltes Volk bestraft. Ein Restversprechen bietet einen Hoffnungsschimmer. Betrachten Sie mit uns fünf Bibelstellen, die in diesem herausfordernden Kapitel mit den Themen Reue und Gerechtigkeit in Zusammenhang stehen.

1. Korinther 10:14: "Deshalb, mein Geliebter, fliehe vor dem Götzendienst." - Paulus warnt vor Götzendienst, einem zentralen Thema in Hesekiel 14:3-7.

Jakobus 1:14-15: "Jeder wird jedoch von seinem eigenen bösen Verlangen in Versuchung geführt und von ihm mitgerissen und verführt. Dann gebiert dieses Verlangen nach der Empfängnis die Sünde; und die Sünde erzeugt nach ihrer Vollendung den Tod." - Jakobus beschreibt den Prozess der Sünde im Zusammenhang mit der Warnung in Hesekiel 14:3 vor „Störungen, die zur Bosheit führen“.

Römer 1:25: "Sie tauschten die Wahrheit Gottes gegen eine Lüge ein und verehrten und dienten den geschaffenen Dingen und Wesen anstelle des Schöpfers, der für immer gesegnet ist. Amen." - Paulus beschreibt den Götzendienst auf ähnliche Weise wie Hesekiel 14:5.

Johannes 9:31: "Wir wissen, dass Gott nicht auf Sünder hört, sondern auf den Menschen, der ihn fürchtet und seinen Willen tut." - Dieser Vers spiegelt den Grundsatz in Hesekiel 14:14-20 wider, dass die Gerechtigkeit des Einzelnen andere nicht retten kann.

2. Petrus 2:5: "Er hat die antike Welt nicht verschont, als er die Sintflut über diese bösen Menschen brachte, aber er bewahrte Noah, einen Prediger der Gerechtigkeit, und sieben weitere Menschen." - Petrus erwähnt Noah, der auch in Hesekiel 14,14.20 als Beispiel für Gerechtigkeit angeführt wird.
