Ezekiel 43
1 Zatim me povede k vratima što gledaju na istok.
Then [in the vision] the man brought me to the entrance on the east side.
2 I gle, Slava Boga Izraelova dolazi od istoka; šum joj kao šum velikih voda: i zemlja se sjala od slave njegove.
Suddenly I saw the glory/brightness of the God of Israel coming from the east. The sound of his coming was like the roar of a rushing river, and all that area shone with his glory.
3 To viđenje koje gledah bijaše kao viđenje što ga vidjeh kad dođoh da uništim grad i kao viđenje koje vidjeh na rijeci Kebaru. Padoh ničice.
What I saw in this vision was like what I saw in the visions that I had seen [previously, first] by the Kebar River and [later] when God came to destroy Jerusalem. I prostrated myself on the ground.
4 A Slava Jahvina uđe u Dom na vrata koja gledaju na istok.
The glory of Yahweh entered the temple through the east entrance.
5 Tada me duh podiže i odvede u unutrašnje predvorje. I gle: Dom bijaše pun Slave Jahvine.
Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner courtyard, and the glory of Yahweh filled the temple.
6 I čuh glas koji mi iz Doma govori, a kraj mene netko stajaše.
[Then] while the man was standing beside me, I heard someone speak to me from inside the temple.
7 I reče mi: “Sine čovječji, ovo je mjesto mojega prijestolja, ovo je mjesto stopa mojih nogu: ovdje ću, posred sinova Izraelovih, prebivati zauvijek. Izraelov dom neće više oskvrnjivati moje sveto ime - ni oni ni njihovi kraljevi - svojim bludništvom i truplima svojih kraljeva:
He said, “You human, this is [my temple], the place [I sit on] my throne and where I rest my feet. This is where I will live with the Israeli people forever. The Israeli people and their kings will never again disgrace me [SYN] by worshiping other gods [MET] at the shrines on their hilltops, or by [building] monuments to honor their kings who have died.
8 stavili su svoj prag do moga, svoje dovratnike do mojih, tako da je bio samo zid između mene i njih, i oskvrnjivali su moje sveto ime gnusobama koje počiniše. I zato ih zatrijeh u svojem gnjevu.
They placed their altars near mine, and the doorposts of their [temples] were next to the doorposts of my [temple]. There was only a wall between them. And they disgraced me by the detestable things that they did. So, being very angry with them, I got rid of them.
9 Sada će oni ukloniti daleko od mene svoje bludništvo i trupla svojih kraljeva, a ja ću zauvijek prebivati posred njih.
Now they must stop this disgusting worship of idols and these rituals to honor their kings who have died. If they stop doing those things, I will live among them forever.
10 Sine čovječji, pokaži domu Izraelovu ovaj Dom da se posrame sa svojih bezakonja. Neka mu izmjere razmjere.
You human, describe to the Israeli people what this temple that I have shown you [in a vision] is like, in order that they will be ashamed of the sins that they have committed [which resulted in their temple in Jerusalem being destroyed].
11 Ako se posrame zbog svega što učiniše, opiši im Dom i njegove razmjere, njegove izlaze i ulaze, sve njegovo obličje, sve propise i sve zakone; upoznaj ih i nacrtaj im da vide i da čuvaju i provedu sve njegovo obličje i sve propise o njemu.
If they are ashamed of all [the evil things] that they have done, tell them [all] about the temple [that I showed you]: its design/shape, the exits and entrances, [and everything else about it]. And tell them all my laws and regulations about worshiping me there. Write all these things down while they watch you, in order that they will be able to faithfully obey those laws.
12 A ovo je zakon za Dom: navrh gore, sav prostor uokolo, bit će najsvetija svetinja.
And this is the supreme law about the temple [DOU]: All of the area on top of the hill [where the temple will be built] must be kept sacred and holy.”
13 Ovo su mjere žrtvenika, na laktove - a lakat je ovdje jedan lakat i pedalj: podnožje žrtvenika lakat dugo, lakat široko; obrub kojim je obrubljen uokolo - jedan pedalj. Visina žrtvenika:
These are the measurements of the altar, using the same kind of measuring stick that was used for the temple area: There is a gutter around the altar that is (21 in./53 cm.) deep and (21 in./53 cm.) wide. There is a rim around it that is (9 in./23 cm.) wide.
14 od podnožja na zemlji do donjega pojasa žrtvenika - dva lakta, a u širinu jedan lakat; od manjeg pojasa do većega četiri lakta, a u širinu jedan lakat.
The lower part of the gutter is (3-1/2 feet/1.1 meters) high to the lower ledge/rim that surrounds the altar. The lower ledge is (21 in./53 cm.) wide. The upper part of the altar is (7 feet/2.1 meters) high, up to the upper ledge. That ledge is also (21 in./53 cm.) wide.
15 A samo žrtvište: četiri lakta visoko. A sa žrtvišta dižu se uvis četiri roga.
The (hearth/place where the sacrifices are burned) at the top of the altar is another (7 feet/2.2 meters) high, and there is a projection that juts/extends up from each of the four corners.
16 Žrtvište: dvanaest lakata dugo, dvanaest lakata široko, četvorina, na sve četiri strane.
That place at the top of the altar is square, (21 feet/6.4 meters) on each side.
17 A pojas: četrnaest lakata dug i četrnaest lakata širok, na četiri strane; njegov rub uokolo pol lakta, a podnožje oko njega uokolo jedan lakat; stepenice mu gledaju na istok.”
The upper ledge is also a square, (24-1/2 feet/7.4 meters) on each side. There is a (21 in./53 cm.) gutter [at the bottom of the altar], and a (10.5 in./26.6 cm.) rim all around it. There are steps up to the east side of the altar.”
18 I reče mi: “Sine čovječji, ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Ovo su propisi žrtveni po kojima se u svoje vrijeme mora podići žrtvenik da se na njemu prinose paljenice i da se po njemu škropi krvlju.
Then the man said to me, “You human, this is what Yahweh the Lord says: These are the regulations for sacrificing offerings that will be completely burned and for sprinkling the blood against the sides of the altar when it is built:
19 Svećenicima levitima, potomcima Sadokovim, koji pristupaju k meni da mi služe - riječ je Jahve Gospoda - dat ćeš june za žrtvu okajnicu.
You must present to the priests a young bull to be an offering to cause the altar to be acceptable to me. The priests are descendants of Levi, from the clan of Zadok, who come near to the altar to serve me.
20 Uzet ćeš njegove krvi i njome pomazati četiri roga žrtvišta i četiri ugla pojasa i obrub sve uokolo da okajnicom pomiriš žrtvenik.
You must take some of the blood [from the bull that is sacrificed], and smear it on the four projections of the altar and on the four corners of the upper ledge, and all around the rim, to cause the altar to be acceptable to me, and to consecrate it.
21 Zatim uzmi june i spali ga na odijeljenom mjestu Doma, izvan Svetišta.
You must burn that bull outside the temple in the part of the temple area [that I have] designated for that.
22 Sutradan prinesi jarca bez mane kao okajnicu, neka se njime okaje žrtvenik kao što je okajan junetom.
The next day, you must offer a male goat that has no defects, to be an offering to cause the altar to be acceptable to me. Then you must purify the altar again, like you did with the bull that was sacrificed.
23 A kad ga okaješ, prinesi junca bez mane i ovna bez mane iz stada:
When you have finished doing all that, you must offer a young bull and a ram, both of them without any defects.
24 prikaži ih pred Jahvom, a svećenici neka ih pospu solju i neka ih prinesu kao paljenicu Jahvi.
You must offer them to [me], Yahweh, and the priests must sprinkle salt on them and completely burn them [on the altar] for a sacrifice to me.
25 Sedam dana svaki dan prinesi jednog jarca za grijeh; i neka se prinese june i ovan iz stada, oba bez mane.
[Then], each day for seven days, you must bring [to the priest] a male goat [to be sacrificed] for an offering to cause the altar to be acceptable to me. You must also sacrifice a young bull and a ram, [each] without any defect.
26 Sedam dana neka se pomiruje žrtvenik i neka se čisti i posvećuje.
For seven days the priests will consecrate the altar and cause it to be acceptable to me. By doing that they will dedicate it to me.
27 Pošto se navrše ti dani, od osmoga dana unapredak neka svećenici žrtvuju na žrtveniku vaše paljenice i pričesnice; i omiljet ćete mi' - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.”
At the end of those seven days, starting on the following day, the priests will continue to put on the altar offerings to be completely burned and offerings to maintain fellowship with me. Then I will accept you. [That it what I], Yahweh the Lord, declare.”
