< Ezechiel 4 >
1 Ty pak synu člověčí, vezmi sobě cihlu, a polože ji před sebe, vyrej na ní město Jeruzalém.
[Yahweh also said to me, ] “You human, take a large clay tablet/brick and put it in front of you. Then on the [engrave/draw] on it lines that represent Jerusalem.
2 A postav na ní obležení, a vzdělaje na ní šance, vysyp na ní násyp, a polož na ní vojska, a postav na ní berany válečné vůkol.
[draw figures around it to represent enemy soldiers who will] surround the city. Make mounds around it and a dirt ramp up against the [around the city]. [figures around it that represent] (battering rams/heavy logs that will break though the walls).
3 Potom vezmi sobě pánev železnou, a polož ji místo zdi železné, mezi tebou a mezi městem, a zatvrď tvář svou proti němu, ať jest obleženo, a oblehneš je. Toť bude znamením domu Izraelskému.
Then take an iron pan, and place it [to be] like an iron wall between you [the drawing of] the city. Then turn your face toward the drawing. It will symbolize [enemy troops will] surround the city to attack it. That will be a warning to the Israeli people [MTY].
4 Ty pak lehni na levý bok svůj, a vlož na něj nepravost domu Izraelského. Podlé počtu dnů, v němž ležeti budeš na něm, poneseš nepravost jejich.
Then lie on your left side, and stay like that for 390 days. That [symbolize that the Israeli people will be punished for] their sins; you must lie like that one day for each year during which they will be punished.
5 A já dávám tobě léta nepravosti jejich v počtu dnů, tři sta a devadesáte dnů, v nichž poneseš nepravost domu Izraelského.
6 Když je pak vyplníš, budeš ležeti na pravém boku podruhé, a poneseš nepravost domu Judova čtyřidceti dnů. Den za rok, den za rok dávám tobě.
After that, lie down again. This time, lie on your right side for 40 days. That [symbolize that the Israeli people will be punished more] for their sins, one day for each [during which they will be punished].
7 K obležení, pravím, Jeruzaléma zatvrď tvář svou, ohrna ruku svou, a prorokuje proti němu.
Turn your face [the drawing of] Jerusalem and bare your [like a soldier does who prepares to go into a battle] [MTY], and prophesy [what will happen to] the city.
8 A aj, dávám na tě provazy, abys se neobracel z boku jednoho na druhý, dokudž nevyplníš dnů obležení svého.
[You will not be able to move; it will be as though] I have tied you with ropes in order that you cannot turn from one side to the other until you have [symbolizing how many years the city] will be (besieged/surrounded by enemy soldiers).
9 Protož ty vezmi sobě pšenice a ječmene, též bobu, šočovice, i prosa, a špaldy, a dej to do jedné nádoby, abys sobě nastrojil z toho pokrmu podlé počtu dnů, v nichž ležeti budeš na boku svém. Za tři sta a devadesáte dnů jísti jej budeš.
[Before you do that, ] take some wheat and barley, beans, lentils, spelt and millet, and put them in a [storage] jar, and use that to bake [for yourself]. That is what you will eat during the 390 days while you lie on your [left] side.
10 Pokrmu pak tvého, kterýž jísti budeš, váha bude dvadceti lotů na den. Od času až do času jísti jej budeš.
You will eat (8 ounces/a small loaf) of bread each day.
11 Vodu také na míru píti budeš, šestý díl hin; od času do času píti budeš.
[Also] measure out (1.5 pints/0.6 liter) of water to drink each day.
12 Podpopelný pak chléb ječný, kterýž jísti budeš, ten lejny nečistoty lidské pec před očima jejich.
Eat that bread like you would eat a loaf of barley bread. But use your own dried dung for fuel to bake the bread while people are watching.
13 I řekl Hospodin: Tak budou jísti synové Izraelští chléb svůj nečistý pro pohany, kteréž tam shromáždím.
That will symbolize that the Israeli people will be forced to eat food that is unacceptable to me when they are living in the nations to which I will force them to go.”
14 Tedy řekl jsem: Ach, Panovníče Hospodine, aj, duše má není poškvrněna mrchami, a udáveného nejedl jsem od dětinství svého až podnes, aniž vešlo v ústa má maso ohavné.
Then I said, “No, Yahweh God![Do not force me to do that]! I have never caused myself to become unacceptable to you [by doing anything like that]. From the time when I was young, I have never eaten meat of any [animal] that was found dead or that had been killed by wild animals. And I have never eaten any meat that is unacceptable to you.”
15 Kterýž řekl mi: Aj, dávámť kravince místo lejn lidských, abys sobě jimi napekl chleba.
Yahweh replied, “Okay, I will allow you to bake your bread using dried cow manure instead of human [for fuel].”
16 Za tím řekl mi: Synu člověčí, aj, já zlámi hůl chleba v Jeruzalémě, tak že jísti budou chléb na váhu, a to s zámutkem, a vodu na míru píti, a to s předěšením,
Then he said to me, “You human, I will cause the supply of food to Jerusalem to be cut off. [Then] the people will eat the small amounts of food and drink the small amounts of [that the government permits them to have], and they will be [very] distressed and anxious as they do that,
17 Aby nedostatek majíce v chlebě a v vodě, děsili se jeden každý z nich, a svadli pro nepravost svou.
because water and food will be very scarce. They will see each other becoming extremely thin, and they will be appalled; [but this will happen] because they are being punished [for the sins that they have committed].”
