< Ezechiel 37 >

1 Byla nade mnou ruka Hospodinova, a vyvedl mne Hospodin v duchu, a postavil mne u prostřed údolí, kteréž bylo plné kostí.
The hand of the Lord had been on me, and he took me out in the spirit of the Lord and put me down in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones;
2 I provedl mne skrze ně vůkol a vůkol, a aj, bylo jich velmi mnoho v tom údolí, a aj, byly velmi suché.
And he made me go past them round about: and I saw that there was a very great number of them on the face of the wide valley, and they were very dry.
3 I řekl mi: Synu člověčí, mohly-li by ožiti kosti tyto? I řekl jsem: Panovníče Hospodine, ty víš.
And he said to me, Son of man, is it possible for these bones to come to life? And I made answer, and said, It is for you to say, O Lord.
4 V tom řekl mi: Prorokuj o těch kostech a rci jim: Kosti suché, slyšte slovo Hospodinovo.
And again he said to me, Be a prophet to these bones, and say to them, O you dry bones, give ear to the word of the Lord.
5 Toto praví Panovník Hospodin kostem těmto: Aj, já uvedu do vás ducha, abyste ožily.
This is what the Lord has said to these bones: See, I will make breath come into you so that you may come to life;
6 A dám na vás žily, a učiním, že zroste na vás maso, a otáhnu vás koží; dám, pravím, do vás ducha, abyste ožily, i zvíte, že já jsem Hospodin.
And I will put muscles on you and make flesh come on you, and put skin over you, and breath into you, so that you may have life; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
7 Tedy prorokoval jsem tak, jakž mi rozkázáno bylo. I stal se zvuk, když jsem já prorokoval, a aj, hřmot, když se přibližovaly kosti jedna k druhé.
So I gave the word as I was ordered: and at my words there was a shaking of the earth, and the bones came together, bone to bone.
8 I viděl jsem, a aj, žily a maso na nich se ukázalo, i koží potaženy byly po vrchu, ale ducha žádného nebylo v nich.
And looking I saw that there were muscles on them and flesh came up, and they were covered with skin: but there was no breath in them.
9 I řekl mi: Prorokuj k duchu, prorokuj, synu člověčí, a rci duchu: Takto praví Panovník Hospodin: Ode čtyř větrů přiď, duchu, a věj na tyto zmordované, ať oživou.
And he said to me, Be a prophet to the wind, be a prophet, son of man, and say to the wind, The Lord has said: Come from the four winds, O wind, breathing on these dead so that they may come to life.
10 Tedy prorokoval jsem, jakž mi rozkázal. I všel do nich duch, a ožili, a postavili se na nohách svých, zástup velmi veliký.
And I gave the word at his orders, and breath came into them, and they came to life and got up on their feet, a very great army.
11 I řekl mi: Synu člověčí, kosti tyto jsou všecken dům Izraelský. Aj, říkají: Uschly kosti naše, a zhynula čáka naše, jižť jest po nás.
Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones are all the children of Israel: and see, they are saying, Our bones have become dry our hope is gone, we are cut off completely.
12 Protož prorokuj a rci jim: Takto praví Panovník Hospodin: Aj, já otevru hroby vaše, a vyvedu vás z hrobů vašich, lide můj, a uvedu vás do země Izraelské.
For this cause be a prophet to them, and say, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am opening the resting-places of your dead, and I will make you come up out of your resting-places, O my people; and I will take you into the land of Israel.
13 I zvíte, že já jsem Hospodin, když otevru hroby vaše, a vyvedu vás z hrobů vašich, lide můj.
And you will be certain that I am the Lord by my opening the resting-places of your dead and making you come up out of your resting-places, O my people.
14 A dám Ducha svého do vás, abyste ožili, a osadím vás v zemi vaší, i zvíte, že já Hospodin mluvím i činím, dí Hospodin.
And I will put my spirit in you, so that you may come to life, and I will give you a rest in your land: and you will be certain that I the Lord have said it and have done it, says the Lord.
15 Opět stalo se slovo Hospodinovo ke mně, řkoucí:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
16 Ty pak synu člověčí, vezmi sobě dřevo jedno, a napiš na něm: Judovi, a synům Izraelským, tovaryšům jeho. Zatím vezma dřevo druhé, napiš na něm: Jozefovi dřevo Efraimovo, a všechněm synům Izraelským, tovaryšům jeho.
And you, son of man, take one stick, writing on it, For Judah and for the children of Israel who are in his company: then take another stick, writing on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and all the children of Israel who are in his company:
17 I spojž je sobě jedno k druhému v jedno dřevo, aby byla jako jedno v ruce tvé.
Then, joining them one to another, make them one stick, so that they may be one in your hand.
18 A když mluviti budou k tobě synové lidu tvého, řkouce: Což nám neoznámíš, co ty věci znamenají:
And when the children of your people say to you, Will you not make clear to us what these things have to do with us?
19 Mluv k nim: Takto praví panovník Hospodin: Aj, já vezmu dřevo Jozefovo, kteréž jest v ruce Efraimově, a pokolení Izraelských, tovaryšů jeho, a přiložím je s ním k dřevu Judovu, a učiním je dřevem jedním, i budou jedno v ruce mé.
Then say to them, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am taking the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel who are in his company; and I will put it on the stick of Judah and make them one stick, and they will be one in my hand.
20 A když budou ta dřeva, na kterýchž jsi psal, v ruce tvé před očima jejich,
And the sticks with your writing on them will be in your hand before their eyes.
21 Tedy mluv k nim: Takto praví Panovník Hospodin: Aj, já vezmu syny Izraelské z prostřed národů těch, kamž odešli, a shromáždě je odevšad, uvedu je do země jejich.
And say to them, These are the words of the Lord: See, I am taking the children of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and will get them together on every side, and take them into their land:
22 A učiním je, aby byli národem jedním v té zemi na horách Izraelských, a král jeden bude nad nimi nade všemi králem. A nebudou více dva národové, aniž se již více děliti budou na dvoje království.
And I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king will be king over them all: and they will no longer be two nations, and will no longer be parted into two kingdoms:
23 Aniž se budou poškvrňovati více ukydanými bohy svými, a ohavnostmi svými, ani jakými přestoupeními svými, i vysvobodím je ze všech obydlí jejich, v nichž hřešili, a očistím je. I budou mým lidem, a já budu jejich Bohem.
And they will no longer make themselves unclean with their images or with their hated things or with any of their sins: but I will give them salvation from all their turning away in which they have done evil, and will make them clean; and they will be to me a people, and I will be to them a God.
24 A služebník můj David bude králem nad nimi, a pastýře jednoho všickni míti budou, aby v soudech mých chodili, a ustanovení mých ostříhali, i činili je.
And my servant David will be king over them; and they will all have one keeper: and they will be guided by my orders and will keep my rules and do them.
25 I budou bydliti v té zemi, kterouž jsem byl dal služebníku svému Jákobovi, v níž bydlili otcové vaši. Budou, pravím, v ní bydliti oni i synové jejich, i synové synů jejich až na věky, a David služebník můj knížetem jejich bude na věky.
And they will be living in the land which I gave to Jacob, my servant, in which your fathers were living; and they will go on living there, they and their children and their children's children, for ever: and David, my servant, will be their ruler for ever.
26 Nadto učiním s nimi smlouvu pokoje; smlouva věčná bude s nimi. A rozsadím je, i rozmnožím je, a postavím svatyni svou u prostřed nich na věky.
And I will make an agreement of peace with them: it will be an eternal agreement with them: and I will have mercy on them and make their numbers great, and will put my holy place among them for ever.
27 Bude i příbytek můj mezi nimi, a budu jejich Bohem, a oni budou lidem mým.
And my House will be over them; and I will be to them a God, and they will be to me a people.
28 I zvědí národové, že jsem já Hospodin, jenž posvěcuji Izraele, když bude svatyně má u prostřed nich na věky.
And the nations will be certain that I who make Israel holy am the Lord, when my holy place is among them for ever.
