Ezekiel 28
1 I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 “Sine čovječji, kaži knezu tirskome: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Tvoje se srce uzoholi, ti reče: 'Ja sam bog! Na božjem prijestolju sjedim u srcu morskom.' Iako čovjek, a ne Bog, ti srce svoje izjednači s Božjim.
“Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre: Thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted, and you have said, ‘I am God, and I sit in the chair of God, in the heart of the sea,’ though you are a man, and not God, and because you have presented your heart as if it were the heart of God:
3 Bješe, eto, od Daniela mudriji, nijedna ti tajna ne bje skrivena!
Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is concealed from you.
4 Mudrošću svojom i razborom nateče bogatstva, riznicu napuni srebrom i zlatom!
By your wisdom and prudence, you have made yourself strong, and you have acquired gold and silver for your storehouses.
5 Mudar li bijaše trgovac, bogatstvo svoje namnoži! Al' ti se s bogatstva srce uzoholi.'
By the multitude of your wisdom, and by your business dealings, you have multiplied strength for yourself. And your heart has been exalted by your strength.
6 Stog ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Jer svoje srce s Božjim izjednači,
Therefore, thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted as if it were the heart of God,
7 dovest ću, evo, na te tuđince najnasilnije među narodima. Isukat će mačeve na mudrost ti divnu, i ljepotu će ti okaljati,
for this reason, behold, I will lead over you foreigners, the most robust among the Gentiles. And they will bare their swords over the beauty of your wisdom, and they will defile your beauty.
8 bacit će te u jamu da umreš nasilnijom smrću od onih što umiru na pučini morskoj!
They will destroy you and pull you down. And you will die the death of those slain in the heart of the sea.
9 Hoćeš li tada pred krvnikom reći: 'Ja sam bog'? Čovjek si, a ne bog, u ruci svojih ubojica.
So then, will you speak, in the presence of those who are destroying you, before the hand of those who are killing you, saying, ‘I am God,’ though you are a man, and not God?
10 Umrijet ćeš smrću neobrezanih od ruke tuđinske! Jer ja, Jahve, rekoh to' - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.”
You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hand of foreigners. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.”
11 I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: “Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre,
12 “Sine čovječji, zakukaj tužaljku nad tirskim kraljem. Reci mu: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Gle, ti bješe uzor savršenstva, pun mudrosti i čudesno lijep!
and you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord God: You were the seal of similitudes, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.
13 U Edenu, vrtu Božjem, ti življaše, resio te dragulj svaki, sard, topaz i dijamant, krizolit, oniks i jaspis, safir, smaragd i zlato. Načinjeni bjehu bubnjevi i frule, na dan ti rođenja bjehu pripravljeni.
You were with the delights of the Paradise of God. Every precious stone was your covering: sardius, topaz, and jasper, chrysolite, and onyx, and beryl, sapphire, and garnet, and emerald. The work of your beauty was of gold, and your fissures were ready in the day when you were formed.
14 Postavih te kao raskriljena keruba zaštitnika: bio si na svetoj gori Božjoj, hodio si posred ognjena kamenja.
You were a cherub, stretched out and protecting, and I stationed you on the holy mountain of God. You have walked in the midst of stones containing fire.
15 Savršen bješe na putima svojim od dana svojega rođenja dok ti se u srcu ne zače opačina.
You were perfect in your ways, from the day of your formation, until iniquity was found in you.
16 Obilno trgujući, napuni se nasiljem i sagriješi. Zato te zbacih s gore Božje, istrgoh te, kerube zaštitniče, isred ognjenoga kamenja.
By the multitude of your business dealings, your interior was filled with iniquity, and you sinned. And I cast you away from the mountain of God, and I perished you, O protecting cherub, from the midst of the stones containing fire.
17 Srce ti se uzoholi zbog ljepote tvoje, mudrost svoju odnemari zbog svojega blaga! Na zemlju te bacih i predah te zemaljskim kraljevima da te prezirno gledaju.
And your heart was exalted by your beauty; you have destroyed your own wisdom by your beauty. I have cast you to the ground. I have presented you before the face of kings, so that they may examine you.
18 Mnoštvom svog bezakonja, nepoštenim trgovanjem oskvrnu svoja svetišta! Pustih oganj posred tebe da te proždre. Pretvorih te na zemlji u pepeo na oči onih što te motre.
You have defiled your sanctuaries, by the multitude of your iniquities and by the iniquity of your business dealings. Therefore, I will produce a fire from your midst, which will consume you, and I will make you into ashes upon the earth, in the sight of all who are watching you.
19 Svi koji te poznaju među narodima zgroziše se nad tobom! Jer ti strašilo posta, nestade zauvijek.'”
All who gaze upon you among the Gentiles will be stupefied over you. You were made out of nothing, and you shall not be, forever.”
20 I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
21 “Sine čovječji, okreni lice k Sidonu, prorokuj protiv njega.
“Son of man, set your face against Sidon, and you shall prophesy about it.
22 Reci: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Evo me protiv tebe, Sidone, proslavit ću se usred tebe! I znat će se da sam ja Jahve kada nad njim sud izvršim i svetost svoju pokažem u njemu.
And you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Sidon, and I will be glorified in your midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have executed judgments in her, and when I will have been sanctified in her.
23 I poslat ću na nj kugu i krv po ulicama njegovim; i mrtvi će posred njega padati od mača, koji ti odasvud prijeti, i znat će se tada da sam ja Jahve.
And I will send a pestilence upon her, and there will be blood in her streets. And they will fall, slain by the sword, on every side in her midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
24 I više neće biti domu Izraelovu trna što ranjava nit' žaoke što razdire među svima uokolo koji ga preziru! I znat će se da sam ja Jahve!'”
And the house of Israel will no longer be a stumbling block of bitterness, nor a thorn bringing pain everywhere around them, to those who turn against them. And they shall know that I am the Lord God.”
25 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: “A kad skupim sav dom Izraelov između naroda po kojima su razasuti, očitovat ću u njima svoju svetost pred očima narodÄa. I nastanit će se u svojoj zemlji što je dadoh sluzi svome Jakovu.
Thus says the Lord God: “When I will have gathered together the house of Israel, from the peoples among whom they have been dispersed, I shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the Gentiles. And they shall live in their own land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
26 I u njoj će živjeti u miru, gradit će domove i saditi vinograde. Živjet će u pouzdanju dok budem izvršivao svoj sud nad svima koji ih naokolo prezirahu. I znat će da sam ja Jahve, Bog njihov.”
And they shall live within it securely. And they shall build houses and plant vineyards. And they shall live in confidence, when I will have executed judgments upon all those who turn against them on every side. And they shall know that I am the Lord their God.”
