< Ezekiel 30 >
1 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
2 “Son of man, prophesy and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Wail, ‘Alas for that day!’
“Sine čovječji, prorokuj i reci: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Kukajte: 'Jao dana!'
3 For the day is near, the Day of the LORD is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations.
Jer se bliži dan, bliži se dan Jahvin! Dan oblačan, vrijeme narodima određeno.
4 A sword will come against Egypt, and there will be anguish in Cush when the slain fall in Egypt, its wealth is taken away, and its foundations are torn down.
I mač će ući u Egipat, a strah će ophrvati Etiopiju kad mrtvi stanu padati po Egiptu i kad se razgrabi njegovo blago te kad mu temelje sve sruše.
5 Cush, Put, and Lud, and all the various peoples, as well as Libya and the men of the covenant land, will fall with Egypt by the sword.
Kuš, Put i Lud, sva Arabija i Libija, i sinovi zemlje Krete s njima od mača će izginuti'!
6 For this is what the LORD says: The allies of Egypt will fall, and her proud strength will collapse. From Migdol to Syene they will fall by the sword within her,
Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Past će koji podupiru Egipat i srozat će se ponos njegove moći. Od Migdola do Sevana sve će u njemu od mača pasti - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.
7 They will be desolate among desolate lands, and their cities will lie among ruined cities.
On će biti pustoš među opustošenim zemljama, a njegovi gradovi ruševine među razrušenim gradovima.
8 Then they will know that I am the LORD when I set fire to Egypt and all her helpers are shattered.
I znat će da sam ja Jahve kad zapalim svoj oganj u Egiptu i zatrem sve pomagače njegove.
9 On that day messengers will go out from Me in ships to frighten Cush out of complacency. Anguish will come upon them on the day of Egypt’s doom. For it is indeed coming.
U onaj će dan glasnici od mene na lađama isploviti da zastraše bezbrižnu Etiopiju. I strah će je ophrvati u dan egipatski. Jer, evo, bliži se!'
10 This is what the Lord GOD says: I will put an end to the hordes of Egypt by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Uništit ću mnoštvo egipatsko rukom Nabukodonozora, kralja babilonskoga!
11 He and his people with him, the most ruthless of the nations, will be brought in to destroy the land. They will draw their swords against Egypt and fill the land with the slain.
On i njegov narod s njime - najokrutniji među narodima - bit će dovedeni da zemlju zatru. I oni će isukati mač na Egipat i svu će mu zemlju truplima ispuniti.
12 I will make the streams dry up and sell the land to the wicked. By the hands of foreigners I will bring desolation upon the land and everything in it.
A ja ću isušiti rijeke i zemlju predati u ruke silnicima, opustošit ću zemlju i što je u njoj - rukom tuđinaca. Ja, Jahve, rekoh!'
13 This is what the Lord GOD says: I will destroy the idols and put an end to the images in Memphis. There will no longer be a prince in Egypt, and I will instill fear in that land.
Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Razorit ću kumire i ništavila istrijebiti iz Memfisa, i neće više biti knezova u egipatskoj zemlji, a strah ću posijati u zemlji egipatskoj.
14 I will lay waste Pathros, set fire to Zoan, and execute judgment on Thebes.
Opustošit ću Patros, zapaliti Soan, izvršiti sud na Tebi.
15 I will pour out My wrath on Pelusium, the stronghold of Egypt, and cut off the crowds of Thebes.
Iskalit ću gnjev nad Sinom, tvrđom egipatskom, istrijebit ću mnoštvo u Tebi.
16 I will set fire to Egypt, Pelusium will writhe in anguish, Thebes will be split open, and Memphis will face daily distress.
Zapalit ću oganj pod Egiptom: Sin će uzdrhtati od strave, Teba će biti osvojena, a Memfis u tjeskobi dan za danom.
17 The young men of On and Pi-beseth will fall by the sword, and those cities will go into captivity.
Mladići Heliopola i Pi-Beseta od mača će pasti. A oni će biti odvedeni u ropstvo!
18 The day will be darkened in Tahpanhes when I break the yoke of Egypt and her proud strength comes to an end. A cloud will cover her, and her daughters will go into captivity.
Nad Tafnisom pomrčat će dan kad ondje slomim jaram egipatski i kad se dokonča ponos moći u njemu! Nad njim će se nadviti oblak, i njegove će kćeri biti odvedene u ropstvo!
19 So I will execute judgment on Egypt, and they will know that I am the LORD.”
Tako ću izvršiti sud nad Egiptom, i znat će da sam ja Jahve.'”
20 In the eleventh year, on the seventh day of the first month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Godine jedanaeste, prvoga mjeseca, sedmoga dana dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
21 “Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. See, it has not been bound up for healing, or splinted for strength to hold the sword.
“Sine čovječji, gle, slomih mišicu faraonu, kralju egipatskom! I evo, nisu je ni povili: nisu metnuli lijekove niti su je povojima obavili da je okrijepe kako bi se opet mogla prihvatiti mača.
22 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt. I will break his arms, both the strong one and the one already broken, and will make the sword fall from his hand.
Stoga ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Evo me protiv faraona, kralja egipatskoga, da mu slomim obje ruke, i zdravu i slomljenu, i da mu mač izbijem iz ruke!
23 I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands.
Razagnat ću Egipćane među narode i rasijati ih po zemljama!
24 I will strengthen the arms of Babylon’s king and place My sword in his hand, but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, who will groan before him like a mortally wounded man.
Ojačat ću ruke kralju babilonskom i mač ću svoj staviti u njegovu ruku; a faraonu ću slomiti ruke te će stenjati pred neprijateljem kao ranjenik.
25 I will strengthen the arms of Babylon’s king, but Pharaoh’s arms will fall limp. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I place My sword in the hand of Babylon’s king, and he wields it against the land of Egypt.
Da, ojačat ću ruke kralju babilonskom, a ruke će faraonove klonuti. I znat će se da sam ja Jahve kad metnem mač svoj u ruke kralju babilonskom i on ga zavitla nad zemljom egipatskom.
26 I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”
Raspršit ću Egipćane među narode i rasijati ih po zemljama. I znat će da sam ja Jahve.'”
