Ezekiel 21
1 And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
I doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
2 “Son of man, set your face against Jerusalem and preach against the sanctuaries. Prophesy against the land of Israel
Sine èovjeèji, okreni lice svoje prema Jerusalimu, i pokaplji prema svetijem mjestima, i prorokuj protiv zemlje Izrailjeve.
3 and tell her that this is what the LORD says: ‘I am against you, and I will draw My sword from its sheath and cut off from you both the righteous and the wicked.
I reci zemlji Izrailjevoj: ovako veli Gospod: evo me na te; izvuæi æu maè svoj iz korica, i istrijebiæu iz tebe pravednoga i bezbožnoga.
4 Because I will cut off both the righteous and the wicked, My sword will be unsheathed against everyone from south to north.
Da istrijebim iz tebe pravednoga i bezbožnoga, zato æe izaæi maè moj iz korica svojih na svako tijelo od juga do sjevera.
5 Then all flesh will know that I, the LORD, have taken My sword from its sheath, not to return it again.’
I poznaæe svako tijelo da sam ja Gospod izvukao maè svoj iz korica njegovijeh, neæe se više vratiti.
6 But you, son of man, groan! Groan before their eyes with a broken heart and bitter grief.
A ti, sine èovjeèji, uzdiši kao da su ti bedra polomljena, i gorko uzdiši pred njima.
7 And when they ask, ‘Why are you groaning?’ you are to say, ‘Because of the news that is coming. Every heart will melt, and every hand will go limp. Every spirit will faint, and every knee will turn to water.’ Yes, it is coming and it will surely happen, declares the Lord GOD.”
A kada ti reku: zašto uzdišeš? ti reci: za glas što ide, od kojega æe se rastopiti svako srce i klonuti sve ruke i svakoga æe duha nestati, i svaka æe koljena postati kao voda; evo, ide, i navršiæe se, govori Gospod Gospod.
8 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Potom doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
9 “Son of man, prophesy and tell them that this is what the Lord says: ‘A sword, a sword, sharpened and polished—
Sine èovjeèji, prorokuj i reci: ovako veli Gospod Gospod: reci: maè, maè je naoštren, i uglaðen je.
10 it is sharpened for the slaughter, polished to flash like lightning! Should we rejoice in the scepter of My son? The sword despises every such stick.
Naoštren je da kolje, uglaðen je da sijeva; hoæemo li se radovati kad prut sina mojega ne haje ni za kako drvo?
11 The sword is appointed to be polished, to be grasped in the hand. It is sharpened and polished, to be placed in the hand of the slayer.
Dao ga je da se ugladi da se uzme u ruku; maè je naoštren i uglaðen, da se da u ruku ubici.
12 Cry out and wail, O son of man, for the sword is wielded against My people; it is against all the princes of Israel! They are tossed to the sword with My people; therefore strike your thigh.
Vièi i ridaj, sine èovjeèji; jer on ide na narod moj, na sve knezove Izrailjeve; pod maè æe biti okrenuti s narodom mojim, zato udri se po bedru.
13 Surely testing will come! And what if even the scepter, which the sword despises, does not continue?’
Kad bješe karanje, šta bi? eda li ni od pruta koji ne haje neæe biti ništa? govori Gospod Gospod.
14 ‘So then, son of man, prophesy and strike your hands together. Let the sword strike two times, even three. It is a sword that slays, a sword of great slaughter closing in on every side!
Ti dakle, sine èovjeèji, prorokuj i pljeskaj rukama, jer æe maè doæi i drugom i treæom, maè koji ubija, maè koji velike ubija, koji prodire u klijeti.
15 So that their hearts may melt and many may stumble, I have appointed at all their gates a sword for slaughter. Yes, it is ready to flash like lightning; it is drawn for slaughter.
Da se rastope srca i umnoži pogibao, metnuo sam na sva vrata njihova strah od maèa; jaoh! pripravljen je da sijeva, naoštren da kolje.
16 Slash to the right; set your blade to the left— wherever your blade is directed.
Stegni se, udri nadesno, nalijevo, kuda se god obrneš.
17 I too will strike My hands together, and I will satisfy My wrath.’
Jer æu i ja pljeskati rukama, i namiriæu gnjev svoj. Ja Gospod rekoh.
18 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Još mi doðe rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
19 “Now you, son of man, mark out two roads for the sword of the king of Babylon to take, both starting from the same land. And make a signpost where the road branches off to each city.
A ti, sine èovjeèji, naèini dva puta, kuda æe doæi maè cara Vavilonskoga; iz jedne zemlje neka izlaze oba; i izberi stranu, gdje se poèinje put gradski, izberi.
20 Mark out one road for the sword to come against Rabbah of the Ammonites, and another against Judah into fortified Jerusalem.
Naèini put, kojim æe doæi maè na Ravu sinova Amonovijeh, i u Judeju na tvrdi Jerusalim.
21 For the king of Babylon stands at the fork in the road, at the junction of the two roads, to seek an omen: He shakes the arrows, he consults the idols, he examines the liver.
Jer æe car Vavilonski stati na rasputici, gdje poèinju dva puta, te æe vraèati, gladiæe strijele, pitaæe likove, gledaæe u jetru.
22 In his right hand appears the portent for Jerusalem, where he is to set up battering rams, to call for the slaughter, to lift a battle cry, to direct the battering rams against the gates, to build a ramp, and to erect a siege wall.
Nadesno æe mu vraèanje pokazati Jerusalim da namjesti ubojne sprave, da otvori usta na klanje, da podigne glas podvikujuæi, da namjesti ubojne sprave prema vratima, da naèini opkope, da pogradi kule.
23 It will seem like a false omen to the eyes of those who have sworn allegiance to him, but it will draw attention to their guilt and take them captive.
I uèiniæe se vraèanje zaludno zakletima, a to æe napomenuti bezakonje da se uhvate.
24 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have drawn attention to your guilt, exposing your transgressions, so that your sins are revealed in all your deeds—because you have come to remembrance—you shall be taken in hand.
Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: što napominjete svoje bezakonje, te se otkriva nevjera vaša i grijesi se vaši vide u svijem djelima vašim, zato što doðoste na pamet, biæete pohvatani rukom.
25 And you, O profane and wicked prince of Israel, the day has come for your final punishment.’
A ti, neèisti bezbožnièe, kneže Izrailjev, kome doðe dan kad bi na kraju bezakonje,
26 This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Remove the turban, and take off the crown. Things will not remain as they are: Exalt the lowly and bring low the exalted.
Ovako veli Gospod Gospod: skini tu kapu i svrzi taj vijenac, neæe ga biti; niskoga æu uzvisiti a visokoga æu poniziti.
27 A ruin, a ruin, I will make it a ruin! And it will not be restored until the arrival of Him to whom it belongs, to whom I have assigned the right of judgment.’
Uništiæu, uništiæu, uništiæu ga, i neæe ga biti, dokle ne doðe onaj kome pripada, i njemu æu ga dati.
28 Now prophesy, son of man, and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says concerning the Ammonites and their contempt: ‘A sword! A sword is drawn for slaughter, polished to consume, to flash like lightning—
A ti, sine èovjeèji, prorokuj i reci: ovako veli Gospod Gospod za sinove Amonove i za njihovu sramotu; reci dakle: maè, maè je izvuèen, uglaðen da kolje, da zatire, da sijeva,
29 while they offer false visions for you and lying divinations about you— to be placed on the necks of the wicked who are slain, whose day has come, the time of their final punishment.
Dokle ti viðaju taštinu, dokle ti gataju laž, da te metnu na vratove pobijenijem bezbožnicima, kojima doðe dan kad bi kraj bezakonju.
30 Return the sword to its sheath! In the place where you were created, in the land of your origin, I will judge you.
Ostavi maè u korice; na mjestu gdje si se rodio, u zemlji gdje si postao, sudiæu ti;
31 I will pour out My anger upon you; I will breathe the fire of My fury against you; I will hand you over to brutal men, skilled in destruction.
I izliæu na te gnjev svoj, ognjem gnjeva svojega dunuæu na te i predaæu te u ruke žestokim ljudma, vještim u zatiranju.
32 You will be fuel for the fire. Your blood will stain your own land. You will not be remembered, for I, the LORD, have spoken.’”
Ognju æeš biti hrana, krv æe ti biti posred zemlje, neæeš se spominjati, jer ja Gospod rekoh.
