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 LORD’s word.
2 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Neprijatelji vaši govore o vama: 'Ha! Ha! Visine vječne postat će naš posjed!'
The Lord GOD says: ‘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, ‘The Lord GOD says: “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 GOD: The Lord GOD says 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 have 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 the Lord GOD says: “Surely in the fire of my jealousy I have 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 Eretz-Israel, and tell the mountains, the hills, the watercourses and the valleys, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, 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 the Lord GOD says: “I have sworn, ‘Surely the nations that are around you will 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 out 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, behold, I am for you, and I will come to you, and you will be tilled and sown.
10 Razmnožit ću ljude po vama - sav dom Izraelov - gradove vam napučiti, razvaline vaše opet podići!
I will multiply men on you, all the house of Israel, even all of it. The cities will be inhabited and the waste places will 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!
I will multiply man and animal on you. They will increase and be fruitful. I will cause you to be inhabited as you were before, and you will do better than at your beginnings. Then you will 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. They will possess you, and you will be their inheritance, and you will never again bereave them of their children.”
13 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: “A što se o tebi govori: 'Ti si zemlja koja ljude proždire i svojem narodu djecu otima' -
“‘The Lord GOD says: “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, and not bereave your nation any more,” says 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.
“I won’t let you hear the shame of the nations any more. You won’t bear the reproach of the peoples any more, and you won’t cause your nation to stumble any more,” says the Lord GOD.’”
16 Dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
Moreover the LORD’s word 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 ways and by their deeds. 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.
I scattered them among the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries. I judged them according to their way and according to their deeds.
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 LORD’s people, and have left 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, ‘The Lord GOD says: “I don’t 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 among them. Then the nations will know that I am the LORD,” says the Lord GOD, “when I am proven holy in 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 will be clean. I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols.
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.
I will also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. 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. You will 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 will dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers. You will 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. 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 will remember your evil ways, and your deeds that were not good; and you will 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!'
I don’t do this for your sake,” says the Lord GOD. “Let it be 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;
“‘The Lord GOD says: “In the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be inhabited and the waste places will be built.
34 opustjela zemlja, nekoć pustinja naočigled svakom prolazniku, bit će opet obrađena.
The land that was desolate will be tilled instead of being 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 will say, ‘This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden. The waste, 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 will 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.
“‘The Lord GOD says: “For this, moreover, I will 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 the waste cities will be filled with flocks of men. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
