Ezekiel 29
1 Godine desete, desetoga mjeseca, dvanaestoga dana, dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2 “Sine čovječji, okreni lice faraonu, kralju egipatskom, i prorokuj protiv njega i protiv sveg Egipta.
“Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him and against all Egypt.
3 Govori i reci: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Evo me protiv tebe, faraone, kralju egipatski, golemi krokodile što ležiš usred rijeka svojih. Ti reče: 'Rijeke su moje, sebi sam ih načinio.'
Speak and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great monster that lies in the middle of his rivers, that has said, ‘My river is my own, and I have made it for myself.’
4 I zato ću ti kuke zarit' u gubicu i sve ribe rijeka tvojih zalijepiti na krljušti tvoje. Izvući ću te isred rijeka tvojih sa svim ribama rijeka tvojih zalijepljenim na tvoje krljušti.
I will put hooks in your jaws, and I will make the fish of your rivers stick to your scales. I will bring you up out of the middle of your rivers, with all the fish of your rivers which stick to your scales.
5 Bacit ću u pustinju tebe i sve ribe iz rijeka tvojih. Na tlo ćeš poljsko pasti, nitko te neće podić' ni sahraniti, zvijerima zemaljskim i nebeskim pticama dat ću te za hranu!
I’ll cast you out into the wilderness, you and all the fish of your rivers. You’ll fall on the open field. You won’t be brought together or gathered. I have given you for food to the animals of the earth and to the birds of the sky.
6 I znat će svi stanovnici Egipta da sam ja Jahve. Jer ti bješe trska za oslonac domu Izraelovu!
“‘“All the inhabitants of Egypt will know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
7 Kad te u ruku uhvatiše, ti se slomi i rane im otvori; a kad se na te osloniše, ti prepuče i bedra im sva izrani.'
When they took hold of you by your hand, you broke and tore all their shoulders. When they leaned on you, you broke and paralysed all of their thighs.”
8 Stog ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Gle, dovest ću mač svoj na te, istrijebit ću iz tebe i ljude i stoku!
“‘Therefore the Lord GOD says: “Behold, I will bring a sword on you, and will cut off man and animal from you.
9 Sva će zemlja egipatska pustoš biti i razvalina, i oni će znati da sam ja Jahve!' Jer ti reče: 'Rijeka je moja, sebi je načinih.'
The land of Egypt will be a desolation and a waste. Then they will know that I am the LORD. “‘“Because he has said, ‘The river is mine, and I have made it,’
10 'Zato evo me na te i na rijeke tvoje da pretvorim zemlju egipatsku u pustinju i pustoš od Migdola do Sevana i do granice etiopske!
therefore, behold, I am against you and against your rivers. I will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from the tower of Seveneh even to the border of Ethiopia.
11 Neće njome više prolaziti noga ljudska ni noga životinjska, ostat će nenaseljena četrdeset godina.
No foot of man will pass through it, nor will any animal foot pass through it. It won’t be inhabited for forty years.
12 Od zemlje ću egipatske načiniti pustoš sred zemalja opustošenih, a gradovi njezini bit će četrdeset godina ruševine među razvaljenim gradovima. I raspršit ću Egipćane među narode i rasijat ću ih po zemljama.'
I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the middle of the countries that are desolate. Her cities amongst the cities that are laid waste will be a desolation forty years. I will scatter the Egyptians amongst the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.”
13 Jer, ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Kad mine četrdeset godina, sakupit ću opet sve Egipćane između naroda kamo bijahu raspršeni.
“‘For the Lord GOD says: “At the end of forty years I will gather the Egyptians from the peoples where they were scattered.
14 Vratit ću izgnanike egipatske, vratit ću ih opet u zemlju Patros, domovinu njihovu, da osnuju ondje slabo kraljevstvo.
I will reverse the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their birth. There they will be a lowly kingdom.
15 Ono će biti najmanje od svih kraljevstava, da se više nikad ne digne nad druge narode. Smanjit ću ga da više nikad ne podjarmi drugih naroda
It will be the lowest of the kingdoms. It won’t lift itself up above the nations any more. I will diminish them so that they will no longer rule over the nations.
16 i da više ne bude uzdanje domu Izraelovu. Nek' mu u pamet doziva grijehe koje bijaše počinio okrećući se za njima. I oni će spoznati da sam ja Jahve.'”
It will no longer be the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to memory, when they turn to look after them. Then they will know that I am the Lord GOD.”’”
17 Godine dvadeset i sedme, prvoga dana prvoga mjeseca, dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
It came to pass in the twenty-seventh year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
18 “Sine čovječji, kralj babilonski Nabukodonozor krenu s vojskom na velik pohod protiv grada Tira. I svaka glava ogolje i svako se rame odadrije. Ali ni on ni vojska mu ne imahu nikakve dobiti od toga što krenuše na Tir.
“Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre. Every head was made bald, and every shoulder was worn; yet he had no wages, nor did his army, from Tyre, for the service that he had served against it.
19 Stoga ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Gle, predat ću Nabukodonozoru, kralju babilonskome, zemlju egipatsku. Odnijet će joj blago, nagrabiti plijena i opljačkati je. To će biti plaća vojsci njegovoj.
Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I will give the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. He will carry off her multitude, take her plunder, and take her prey. That will be the wages for his army.
20 Za trud što na Tir krenu dat ću mu svu zemlju egipatsku, jer za me bijaše radio' - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.
I have given him the land of Egypt as his payment for which he served, because they worked for me,’ says the Lord GOD.
21 'U onaj ću dan učiniti da izraste rog domu Izraelovu, a tebi ću usta otvoriti među njima. I znat će da sam ja Jahve.'”
“In that day I will cause a horn to sprout for the house of Israel, and I will open your mouth amongst them. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”
