Ezekiel 33
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Опет ми дође реч Господња говорећи:
2 “Son of man, speak to the sons of your people, and you shall say to them: Concerning the land, when I will have led the sword over it: if the people of the land take a man, one of their least, and appoint him over themselves as a watchman,
Сине човечји, говори синовима народа свог, и кажи им: Кад пустим на коју земљу мач, ако народ оне земље узме кога између себе, и поставе га себи за стражара,
3 and if he sees the sword approaching over the land, and he sounds the trumpet, and he announces to the people,
И он видевши мач где иде на земљу затруби у трубу, и опомене народ,
4 then, having heard the sound of the trumpet, whoever he is, if he also does not take care of himself, and the sword arrives and takes him: his blood will be upon his own head.
Ако се ко чувши трубу не узме на ум, и мач дошавши погуби га, крв ће његова бити на његовој глави.
5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, and he did not take care of himself, so his blood will be upon him. But if he guards himself, he will save his own life.
Јер чу глас трубни, и не узе се на ум, крв ће његова бити на њему; да се узе на ум, сачувао би душу своју.
6 And if the watchman sees the sword approaching, and he does not sound the trumpet, and so the people do not guard themselves, and the sword arrives and takes some of their lives, certainly these have been taken due to their own iniquity. But I will attribute their blood to the hand of the watchman.
Ако ли стражар видевши мач где иде не затруби у трубу и народ не буде опоменут, а мач дошав погуби кога између њих, тај ће погинути за своје безакоње, али ћу крв његову искати из руке стражареве.
7 And as for you, son of man, I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel. Therefore, having heard the word from my mouth, you shall announce it to them from me.
И тебе, сине човечји, тебе поставих стражарем дому Израиљевом; слушај дакле реч из мојих уста и опомињи их од мене.
8 When I say to the impious, ‘O impious man, you will die a death,’ if you have not spoken so that the impious man will keep himself from his way, then that impious man will die in his iniquity. But I will attribute his blood to your hand.
Кад кажем безбожнику: Безбожниче, погинућеш; а ти не проговориш и не опоменеш безбожника да се прође пута свог; тај ће безбожник погинути за своје безакоње; али ћу крв његову искати из твоје руке.
9 But if you have announced to the impious man, so that he may be converted from his ways, and he has not converted from his way, then he will die in his iniquity. Yet you will have freed your own soul.
Ако ли ти опоменеш безбожника да се врати са свог пута, а он се не врати са свог пута, он ће погинути за своје безакоње, а ти ћеш сачувати душу своју.
10 You, therefore, O son of man, say to the house of Israel: You have spoken in this way, saying: ‘Our iniquities and our sins are upon us, and we waste away in them. So then, how would we be able to live?’
Зато ти, сине човечји, реци дому Израиљевом: Ви говорите овако и кажете: Преступи наши и греси наши на нама су, и с њих пропадамо; како бисмо живели?
11 Say to them: As I live, says the Lord God, I do not desire the death of the impious, but that the impious should convert from his way and live. Be converted, be converted from your evil ways! For why should you die, O house of Israel?
Реци им: Тако био ја жив, говори Господ Господ, није ми мило да умре безбожник, него да се врати безбожник са свог пута и буде жив; вратите се, вратите се са злих путева својих, јер зашто да мрете, доме Израиљев?
12 And as for you then, son of man, say to the sons of your people: The justice of the just man will not deliver him, on whatever day he will have sinned. And the impiety of the impious man will not harm him, on whatever day he will have been converted from his impiety. And the just man will not be able to live by his justice, on whatever day he will have sinned.
Зато ти, сине човечји, реци синовима народа свог: Праведног неће избавити правда његова кад згреши, и безбожник неће пропасти са безбожности своје кад се врати од безбожности своје, као што праведник не може с ње живети кад згреши.
13 Even now, if I say to the just man that he shall certainly live, and so, with confidence in his justice, he commits iniquity, all his justices will be delivered into oblivion, and by his iniquity, which he has done, by this he shall die.
Кад кажем праведнику да ће доиста живети, а он се поузда у правду своју па учини неправду, од све правде његове ништа се неће споменути, него ће погинути с неправде своје коју учини.
14 And if I say to the impious man, ‘You shall certainly die,’ and yet he repents from his sin, and he does judgment and justice,
А кад кажем безбожнику: Доиста ћеш погинути, а он се обрати од грех свог и стане чинити суд и правду,
15 and if that impious man returns the collateral, and repays what he has taken by force, and if he walks in the commandments of life, and does not do anything unjust, then he shall certainly live, and he shall not die.
И врати безбожник залог, и врати шта је отео, и стане ходити по уредбама животним не чинећи безакоња, доиста ће бити жив, неће умрети.
16 None of his sins, which he has committed, will be imputed to him. He has done judgment and justice, so he shall certainly live.
Од свих греха што је згрешио ништа му се неће споменути; чинио је суд и правду, доиста ће жив бити.
17 And the sons of your people have said, ‘The way of the Lord is not a fair balance,’ even while their own way is unjust.
А синови народа твог говоре: Није прав пут Господњи; а њихов пут није прав.
18 For when the just man will have withdrawn from his justice, and committed iniquities, he shall die by these.
Кад се праведник одврати од правде своје и учини неправду, погинуће с тога.
19 And when the impious man will have withdrawn from his impiety, and have done judgment and justice, he shall live by these.
А кад се безбожник одврати од своје безбожности и учини суд и правду, он ће жив бити с тога.
20 And yet you say, ‘The way of the Lord is not right.’ But I shall judge each one of you according to his own ways, O house of Israel.”
А ви говорите: Није прав пут Господњи. Судићу вам, доме Израиљев, свакоме по путевима његовим.
21 And it happened that, in the twelfth year of our transmigration, in the tenth month, on the fifth of the month, one who had fled from Jerusalem arrived saying, “The city has been laid waste.”
А дванаесте године робовања нашег, десетог месеца, петог дана дође к мени један који утече из Јерусалима, и рече: Узе се град.
22 But the hand of the Lord had been upon me in the evening, before the one who had fled arrived. And he opened my mouth, until he came to me in the morning. And since my mouth had been opened, I was no longer silent.
А рука Господња дође нада ме увече пре него дође онај што побеже, и отвори ми уста докле онај дође к мени ујутру; отворише ми се уста, те више не ћутах.
23 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
И дође ми реч Господња говорећи:
24 “Son of man, as for those who live in these ruinous ways on the soil of Israel, when speaking, they say: ‘Abraham was one man, and he possessed the land as an inheritance. But we are many; the land has been given to us as a possession.’
Сине човечји, који живе у оним пустолинама у земљи Израиљевој говоре и кажу: Аврам беше један, и наследи ову земљу; а нас је много; нама је дата ова земља у наследство.
25 Therefore, you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord God: You who eat even the blood, and who lift up your eyes to your uncleannesses, and who shed blood: will you possess the land as an inheritance?
Зато им реци: Овако вели Господ Господ: Једете с крвљу, и очи своје подижете ка гадним боговима својим, и крв проливате, и хоћете да наследите земљу?
26 You stood by your swords, you committed abominations, and each one has defiled his neighbor’s wife. And will you possess the land as an inheritance?
Опирете се на мач свој, чините гадове, и скврните сваки жену ближњег свог, и хоћете да наследите земљу?
27 You shall say these things to them: So says the Lord God: As I live, those who live in ruinous ways will fall by the sword. And whoever is in the field will be delivered over to wild beasts to be devoured. But those who are in fortresses and in caves will die of the pestilence.
Овако им реци: Овако вели Господ Господ: Тако ја жив био, који су у пустолинама, пашће од мача; и који је у пољу, зверима ћу га дати да га изједу; а који су по градовима и по пећинама, од помора ће помрети.
28 And I will make the land into a wilderness and a desert. And its arrogant strength will fail. And the mountains of Israel will be desolate; for there will be no one who crosses through them.
Тако ћу сасвим опустети ту земљу, и нестаће поноса силе њене, и опустеће горе Израиљеве да неће нико пролазити.
29 And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have made their land desolate and deserted, because of all their abominations, which they have worked.
И они ће познати да сам ја Господ кад земљу сасвим опустим за све гадове њихове што чинише.
30 And as for you, O son of man: the sons of your people speak about you beside the walls and in the doorways of houses. And they speak to one another, each man to his neighbor, saying: ‘Come, and let us hear what may be the word going forth from the Lord.’
А о теби, сине човечји, синови народа твог казују о теби уза зидове и на вратима кућним, и говоре један другом, сваки брату свом, и веле: Ходите и чујте каква реч дође од Господа.
31 And they come to you, as if the people were entering, and my people sit before you. And they listen to your words, but they do not do them. For they turn them into a song for their mouth, but their heart pursues their own avarice.
И долазе к теби као кад се народ скупља, и народ мој седа пред тобом, и слуша речи твоје, али их не извршује; у устима су им љупке, а срце њихово иде за својим лакомством.
32 And you are to them like a verse set to music, which is sung with a sweet and pleasing voice. And they hear your words, but they do not do them.
И гле, ти си им као љупка песма, као човек лепог гласа и који добро свира; слушају речи твоје, али их не извршују.
33 And when what has been predicted occurs, for behold it is approaching, then they shall know that a prophet was among them.”
Али кад то дође, а ево иде, онда ће познати да је био пророк међу њима.
