Ezekiel 36

1 Sine čovječji, prorokuj gorama Izraelovim i reci: “O gore Izraelove, čujte riječ Jahvinu:

And thou, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel, and say to the mountains of Israel, Hear ye the word of the Lord:

2 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Neprijatelji vaši govore o vama: 'Ha! Ha! Visine vječne postat će naš posjed!'

Thus saith the Lord God; Because the enemy has said against you, Aha, the old waste places are become a possession for us:

3 I zato prorokuj i reci: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Sa svih vas strana pustoše i plijene da budete posjed ostalim narodima i na jezike dođoste svjetini klevetničkoj.

therefore prophesy, and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Because ye have been dishonoured, and hated by those round about you, that ye might be a possession to the remainder of the nations, and ye became a by-word, and a reproach to the nations:

4 Zato, gore Izraelove, čujte riječ Jahvinu! Ovako govori Jahve Gospod gorama i brežuljcima, uvalama i dolinama, opustošenim razvalinama i napuštenim gradovima koji postadoše plijen i ruglo ostalim narodima uokolo -

therefore, ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord; Thus saith the Lord to the mountains, and to the hills, and to the streams, and to the valleys, and to [the places] that have been made desolate and destroyed, and to the cities that have been deserted, and have become a spoil and a trampling to the nations that were left round about;

5 ovako, dakle, govori Jahve Gospod: Zaista sam govorio o ognju ljubomore svoje protiv ostalih naroda, protiv sveg Edoma, koji s radošću u srcu i s mržnjom u duši sebi prisvoji u posjed zemlju moju da je oplijeni i opljačka.'

therefore, thus saith the Lord; Verily in the fire of my wrath have I spoken against the rest of the nations, and against all Idumea, because they have appropriated my land to themselves for a possession with joy, disregarding the lives [of the inhabitants], to destroy [it] by plunder:

6 Zato prorokuj o zemlji Izraelovoj! Reci gorama i brežuljcima, uvalama i dolinama: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod! Evo, govorim u ljubomori i jarosti jer moradoste podnositi rug naroda.'

therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and say to the mountains, and to the hills, and to the valleys, and to the forests, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I have spoken in my jealousy and in my wrath, because ye have borne the reproaches of the heathen:

7 Zato ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Evo, dižem ruku i kunem se: narodi koji su oko vas snosit će sami svoju sramotu!

therefore I will lift up my hand against the nations that are round about you; they shall bear their reproach.

8 A vi, gore Izraelove, razgranajte se i donesite rod narodu koji će skoro doći.

But your grapes and your fruits, O mountains of Israel, shall my people eat; for they are hoping to come.

9 Jer, evo me k vama! K vama se okrenuh, i gajit ću vas i zasijati!

For, behold, I am toward you, and I will have respect to you, and ye shall be tilled and sown:

10 Razmnožit ću ljude po vama - sav dom Izraelov - gradove vam napučiti, razvaline vaše opet podići!

and I will multiply men upon you, [even] all the house of Israel to the end: and the cities shall be inhabited, and the desolate land shall be built upon.

11 Razmnožit ću po vama ljude i stoku, oni će se namnožiti i naploditi - te ću vas napučiti kao nekoć i obasuti vas dobrima više nego prije! I znat ćete da sam ja Jahve!

And I will multiply men and cattle upon you; and I will cause you to dwell as at the beginning, and will treat you well, as in your former [times]: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

12 Dovest ću k vama ljude, narod svoj, Izraela, i zaposjest će te i bit ćeš im baština i nećeš im više djecu otimati.'”

And I will increase men upon you, [even] my people Israel; and they shall inherit you, and ye shall be to them for a possession; and ye shall no more be bereaved of them.

13 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: “A što se o tebi govori: 'Ti si zemlja koja ljude proždire i svojem narodu djecu otima' -

Thus saith the Lord God: Because they said to thee, Thou [land] devourest men, and hast been bereaved of thy nation;

14 ti više nećeš ljude proždirati ni narodu svome djece otimati - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.

therefore thou shalt no more devour men, and thou shalt no more bereave thy nation, saith the Lord God.

15 Ne dam da više slušaš rug pogana, ne dam da više budeš na sramotu narodima: nećeš više narodu svojem djece otimati” - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.

And there shall no more be heard against you the reproach of the nations, and ye shall no more bear the revilings of the peoples, saith the Lord God.

16 Dođe mi riječ Jahvina:

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

17 “Sine čovječji, kad dom Izraelov još življaše u svojoj zemlji, oskvrnu je svojim nedjelima i svojim putovima. Putovi njihovi bijahu preda mnom kao nečistoća žene nečiste.

Son of man, the house of Israel dwelt upon their land, and defiled it by their way, and with their idols, and with their uncleannesses; and their way was before me like the uncleanness of a removed woman.

18 I zato na njih izlih gnjev svoj zbog krvi što je proliše i zbog kumira kojima je oskvrnuše.

So I poured out my wrath upon them:

19 Rasprših ih među narode i rasijah po zemljama. Sudio sam im prema putovima i nedjelima njihovim.

and I dispersed them among the nations, and utterly scattered them through the countries: I judged them according to their way and according to their sin.

20 Ali u narodima među koje dođoše, među svim narodima u koje dospješe, oskvrnjivahu moje sveto ime, jer o njima se govorilo: 'To je Jahvin narod, a morade otići iz zemlje Jahvine!'

And they went in among the nations, among which they went, and they profaned my holy name, while it was said of them, These are the people of the Lord, and they came forth out of his land.

21 I meni se sažali moje sveto ime što ga dom Izraelov obeščasti u narodima među koje dođe.

But I spared them for the sake of my holy name, which the house of Israel profaned among the nations, among whom they went.

22 Reci zato domu Izraelovu: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Što činim, ne činim radi vas, dome Izraelov, nego radi svetoga imena svojega, koje vi oskvrnuste među narodima u koje dođoste.

Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord; I do not this, O house of Israel, for your sakes, but because of my holy name, which ye have profaned among the nations, among whom ye went.

23 Ja ću posvetiti ime svoje veliko koje vi oskvrnuste posred narodÄa u koje dođoste! I znat će narodi da sam ja Jahve - riječ je Jahve Gospoda - kad na vama, njima naočigled, pokažem svetost svoju.

And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the nations, which ye profaned in the midst of them; and the nations shall know that I am the Lord, when I am sanctified among you before their eyes.

24 Tada ću vas sabrati iz svih naroda i skupiti iz svih zemalja, natrag vas dovesti u vašu zemlju.

And I will take you out from the nations, and will gather you out of all the lands, and will bring you into your own land:

25 Poškropit ću vas vodom čistom da se očistite. Očistit ću vas od svih vaših nečistoća i od svih kumira vaših.

and I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be purged from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols, and I will cleanse you.

26 Dat ću vam novo srce, nov duh udahnut ću u vas! Izvadit ću iz tijela vašega srce kameno i dat ću vam srce od mesa.

And I will give you a new heart, and will put a new spirit in you: and I will take away the heart of stone out of your flesh, and will give you a heart of flesh.

27 Duh svoj udahnut ću u vas da hodite po mojim zakonima i da čuvate i vršite moje naredbe.

And I will put my Spirit in you, and will cause you to walk in mine ordinances, and to keep my judgments, and do [them].

28 I nastanit ćete se u zemlji koju dadoh vašim ocima, i bit ćete moj narod, a ja ću biti vaš Bog.

And ye shall dwell upon the land which I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be to me a people, and I will be to you a God.

29 Izbavit ću vas od svih vaših nečistoća i dozvat ću žito i umnožiti ga, i nikad vas više neću izvrći gladi.

And I will save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and multiply it, and will not bring famine upon you.

30 Umnožit ću plod drveća i rod njiva da ne podnosite više zbog gladi sramotu među narodima.

And I will multiply the fruit of the trees, and the produce of the field, that ye may not bear the reproach of famine among the nations.

31 I tada ćete se spomenuti zlih putova i nedjela svojih, i sami ćete sebe omrznuti zbog bezakonja i gadosti svojih.

And ye shall remember your evil ways and your practices that were not good, and ye shall be hateful in your own sight for your transgressions and for your abominations.

32 A što činim, znajte dobro, ne činim radi vas - riječ je Jahve Gospoda! Postidite se i posramite zbog putova svojih, dome Izraelov!'

Not for your sakes do I [this], saith the Lord God, [as] it is known to you: be ye ashamed and confounded for your ways, O house of Israel.

33 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'A kad vas očistim od svih bezakonja vaših, napučit ću opet vaše gradove i sagraditi razvaline;

Thus saith the Lord God; In the day wherein I shall cleanse you from all your iniquities I will also cause the cities to be inhabited, and the waste [places] shall be built upon:

34 opustjela zemlja, nekoć pustinja naočigled svakom prolazniku, bit će opet obrađena.

and the desolate land shall be cultivated, whereas it was desolate in the eyes of every one that passed by.

35 Tada će se reći: 'Evo zemlje što bijaše pusta, a postade kao vrt edenski! Gle gradova što bijahu pusti, same razvaline i ruševine, a sada su utvrđeni i napučeni!'

And they shall say, That desolate land is become like a garden of delight; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are inhabited.

36 I narodi oko vas koji preostanu znat će da ja, Jahve, razvaljeno opet gradim, i što bi opustošeno, opet sadim. Ja, Jahve, rekoh i učinit ću!'

And the nations, as many as shall have been left round about you, shall know that I the Lord have built the ruined [cities] and planted the waste [lands]: I the Lord have spoken, and will do [it].

37 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Još će ovo moliti dom Izraelov: da im ljudstvo namnožim kao stada.

Thus saith the Lord God; Yet [for] this will I be sought by the house of Israel, to establish them; I will multiply them [even] men as sheep;

38 Kao svetim stadima, kao stadima blagdanskih dana u Jeruzalemu, gradovi, nekoć razvaline, napučit će se ljudstvom. I znat će da sam ja Jahve.”

as holy sheep, as the sheep of Jerusalem in her feasts; thus shall the desert cities be full of flocks of men: and they shall know that I [am] the Lord.
