Ezekiel 5
1 A ti, sine čovječji, uzmi mač naoštren, uzmi ga kao britvu brijačku i obrij glavu i bradu. Zatim uzmi mjerice i porazdijeli.
And thou, son of man, take thee a sharp knife that shaveth the hair: and cause it to pass over thy head, and over thy beard: and take thee a balance to weigh in, and divide the hair.
2 Trećinu spali posred grada ognjem kad se navrše dani tvoje opsade; trećinu uzmi i sasijeci mačem oko grada; trećinu baci u vjetar - i svoj ću mač trgnuti na njih.
A third part thou shalt burn with fire in the midst of the city, according to the fulfilling of the days of the siege: and thou shalt take a third part, and cut it in pieces with the knife all round about: and the other third part thou shalt scatter in the wind, and I will draw out the sword after them.
3 Uzmi malo i zaveži u skute haljine.
And thou shalt take thereof a small number: and shalt bind them in the skirt of thy cloak.
4 Od toga opet nešto uzmi, baci u vatru i spali: odatle će se razgorjeti vatra svemu domu Izraelovu!”
And thou shalt take of them again, and shalt cast them in the midst of the fire, and shalt burn them with fire: and out of it shall come forth a fire into all the house of Israel.
5 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: “Ovo je Jeruzalem! Postavih ga u središte naroda, okružih ga zemljama!
Thus saith the Lord God: This is Jerusalem, I have set her in the midst of the nations, and the countries round about her.
6 Ali se on odupro mojim naredbama većma nego pogani, zakonima mojim većma nego zemlje koje ga okružuju.”
And she hath despised my judgments, so as to be more wicked than the Gentiles; and my commandments, more than the countries that are round about her: for they have cast off my judgments, and have not walked in my commandments.
7 Stoga ovako govori Jahve Gospod: “Buntovniji ste od naroda koji vas okružuju, ne hodite po mojim zakonima i ne vršite ni mojih naredaba ni naredaba okolnih naroda.”
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because you have surpassed the Gentiles that are round about you, and have not walked in my commandments, and have not kept my judgments, and have not done according to the judgments of the nations that are round about you:
8 Zato ovako govori Jahve Gospod: “Evo i mene protiv tebe! Izvršit ću sud svoj nad tobom na oči svih naroda.
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I come against thee, and I myself will execute judgments in the midst of thee in the sight of the Gentiles.
9 Zbog tvojih gadosti učinit ću s tobom što još ne učinih nikada nit ću ikad učiniti:
And I will do in thee that which I have not done: and the like to which I will do no more, because of all thy abominations.
10 posred tebe očevi će jesti sinove, a sinovi očeve; izvršit ću sud svoj nad tobom i sav ostatak tvoj predati svim vjetrovima!
Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst of thee, and the sons shall eat their fathers: and I will execute judgments in thee, and I will scatter thy whole remnant into every wind.
11 Života mi moga! - riječ je Jahve Gospoda - svakojakim grozotama i gadostima ti uistinu oskvrnu moje Svetište. I ja ću sada brijati i oko se moje neće sažaliti i neću se smilovati:
Therefore as I live, saith the Lord God: Because thou hast violated my sanctuary with all thy offences, and with ail thy abominations: I will also break thee in pieces, and my eye shall not spare, and I will not have any pity.
12 trećina će tvojih žitelja posred tebe od kuge skončati i od gladi umrijeti; trećina će oko tebe od mača pasti; trećinu ću predati vjetrovima - i mač ću svoj trgnuti na njih!
A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and shall be consumed with famine in the midst of thee: and a third part of thee shall fall by the sword round about thee: and a third part of thee will I scatter into every wind, and I will draw out a sword after them.
13 Tako ću iskaliti gnjev svoj i smirit će se jarost moja kad im se osvetim. I kad iskalim jarost svoju nad njima, spoznat će da sam to ja, Jahve, u ljubomori svojoj bio rekao.
And I will accomplish my fury, and will cause my indignation to rest upon them, and I will be comforted: and they shall know that I the Lord have spoken it in my zeal, when I shall have accomplished my indignation in them.
14 Opustošit ću te, izvrgnut ću te ruglu naroda koji te okružuju, na oči svim prolaznicima.
And I will make thee desolate, and a reproach among the nations that are round about thee, in the sight of every one that passeth by.
15 Da, bit ćeš na ruglo i sramotu, opomena i užas okolnim narodima kad izvršim protiv tebe sve svoje sudove kažnjavajući gnjevno, jarosno. Ja, Jahve, rekoh!
And thou shalt be a reproach, and a scoff, an example, and an astonishment amongst the nations that are round about thee, when I shall have executed judgments in thee in anger, and in indignation, and in wrathful rebukes.
16 I kad na vas pustim ljute strijele gladi što zatiru, koje ću pustiti na vas da vas uništim i glađu zatrem - uništit ću vam i posljednju pričuvu kruha.
I the Lord have spoken it: When I shall send upon them the grievous arrows of famine, which shall bring death, and which I will send to destroy you: and I will gather together famine against you: and I will break among you the staff of bread.
17 A povrh gladi pustit ću na vas i divlje zvijeri koje će ti djecu rastrgati; kuga će te i krv preplaviti: pod mač ću te svoj okrenuti. Ja, Jahve, rekoh!”
And I will send in upon you famine, and evil beasts unto utter destruction: and pestilence, and blood shall pass through thee, and I will bring in the sword upon thee. I the Lord have spoken it.
