< Ezekiel 36 >
1 Sine čovječji, prorokuj gorama Izraelovim i reci: “O gore Izraelove, čujte riječ Jahvinu:
"You, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel, and say, 'You mountains of Israel, hear the word of the LORD.
2 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Neprijatelji vaši govore o vama: 'Ha! Ha! Visine vječne postat će naš posjed!'
Thus says the LORD: "Because the enemy has said against you, 'Aha.' and, 'The ancient high places are ours in possession'"';
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 says the LORD: "Because, even because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that you might be a possession to the residue of the nations, and you are taken up in the lips of talkers, and the evil report of the people";
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, you mountains of Israel, hear the word of the LORD: "Thus says the LORD to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys, to the desolate wastes and to the cities that are forsaken, which are become a prey and derision to the residue of the nations that are all around;
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 says the LORD: 'Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the nations, and against all Edom, that have appointed my land to themselves for a possession with the joy of all their heart, with despite of soul, to cast it out for a prey.'"'
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 tell the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys, 'Thus says the LORD: "Look, I have spoken in my jealousy and in my wrath, because you have borne the shame of the nations:
7 Zato ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Evo, dižem ruku i kunem se: narodi koji su oko vas snosit će sami svoju sramotu!
therefore thus says the Lord GOD: 'I have sworn, saying, "Surely the nations that are around you, they shall bear their shame."
8 A vi, gore Izraelove, razgranajte se i donesite rod narodu koji će skoro doći.
"'"'But you, mountains of Israel, you shall shoot forth your branches, and yield your fruit to my people Israel; for they are at hand to come.
9 Jer, evo me k vama! K vama se okrenuh, i gajit ću vas i zasijati!
For, look, I am for you, and I will turn into you, and you 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 on you, all the house of Israel, even all of it; and the cities shall be inhabited, and the waste places shall be built;
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 on you man and animal; and they shall increase and be fruitful; and I will cause you to be inhabited after your former estate, and will do better to you than at your beginnings: and you 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.'”
Yes, I will cause men to walk on you, even my people Israel; and they shall possess you, and you shall be their inheritance, and you shall no more henceforth bereave them of children.'"
13 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: “A što se o tebi govori: 'Ti si zemlja koja ljude proždire i svojem narodu djecu otima' -
"'Thus says the LORD: "Because they say to you, 'You are a devourer of men, and have been a bereaver of your nation';
14 ti više nećeš ljude proždirati ni narodu svome djece otimati - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.
therefore you shall devour men no more, neither bereave your nation any more," says the LORD;
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.
"neither will I let you hear any more the shame of the nations, neither shall you bear the reproach of the peoples any more, neither shall you cause your nation to stumble any more," says the LORD.'"
16 Dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
Moreover 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, when the house of Israel lived in their own land, they defiled it by their way and by their doings: their way before me was as the uncleanness of a woman in her impurity.
18 I zato na njih izlih gnjev svoj zbog krvi što je proliše i zbog kumira kojima je oskvrnuše.
Therefore I poured out my wrath on them for the blood which they had poured out on the land, and because they had defiled it with their idols;
19 Rasprših ih među narode i rasijah po zemljama. Sudio sam im prema putovima i nedjelima njihovim.
and I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.
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!'
When they came to the nations, where they went, they profaned my holy name; in that men said of them, 'These are the people of the LORD, and are gone 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 had respect for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the nations, where 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 tell the house of Israel, 'Thus says the LORD: "I do not do this for your sake, house of Israel, but for my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations, where you 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.
I will sanctify my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am the LORD when I magnify myself among you before their eyes.
24 Tada ću vas sabrati iz svih naroda i skupiti iz svih zemalja, natrag vas dovesti u vašu zemlju.
For I will take you from among the nations, and gather you out of all the countries, 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.
I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I 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 also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. And I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I 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.
I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and you shall keep my ordinances, 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.
You shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and you shall be my people, and I will be your God.
29 Izbavit ću vas od svih vaših nečistoća i dozvat ću žito i umnožiti ga, i nikad vas više neću izvrći gladi.
I will save you from all your uncleanness: and I will call for the grain, and will multiply it, and lay no famine on you.
30 Umnožit ću plod drveća i rod njiva da ne podnosite više zbog gladi sramotu među narodima.
I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that you may receive no more 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.
Then you shall remember your evil ways, and your doings that were not good; and you shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities 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!'
Nor for your sake do I this," says the LORD, "be it known to you: be ashamed and confounded for your ways, 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 says the LORD: 'In the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be inhabited, and the waste places shall be built.
34 opustjela zemlja, nekoć pustinja naočigled svakom prolazniku, bit će opet obrađena.
The land that was desolate shall be tilled, whereas it was a desolation in the sight of all who 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!'
They shall say, "This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are fortified and 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!'
Then the nations that are left around you shall know that I, the LORD, have built the ruined places, and planted that which was desolate: I, the LORD, have spoken it, and I will do it.'"
37 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Još će ovo moliti dom Izraelov: da im ljudstvo namnožim kao stada.
"Thus says the LORD: 'For this, moreover, will I be inquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them: I will increase them with men like a flock.
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 the flock for sacrifice, as the flock of Jerusalem in her appointed feasts, so shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men; and they shall know that I am the LORD.'"
