< Ezekiel 7 >

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Opet mi dođe riječ Jahvina i reče:
2 “And as for you, son of man: Thus says the Lord God to the land of Israel: The end is coming, the end is coming, over the four regions of the earth.
“Ti, sine čovječji, reci: Ovako govori Jahve Gospod zemlji Izraelovoj: 'Primiče se kraj: bliži se konac zemlji na sve četiri strane svijeta!
3 Now the end is over you, and I will send my fury upon you. And I will judge you according to your ways. And I will place all your abominations before you.
Sada je i tebi kraj: gnjev ću svoj na te izliti, sudit ću ti prema putovima tvojim i na te ću oboriti sve gadosti tvoje!
4 And my eye will not be lenient over you, and I will not take pity. Instead, I will set your ways upon you, and your abominations will be in your midst. And you shall know that I am the Lord.”
I moje te oči neće požaliti, neću ti se smilovati, nego ću te nagraditi prema putovima tvojim, tvoje će gadosti u tebi ostati. I znat ćete da sam ja Jahve.'”
5 Thus says the Lord God: “One affliction, behold, one affliction is approaching.
Ovako govori Jahve: “Jedna nesreća, evo, dolazi!
6 The end is coming, the end is coming. It has been vigilant against you. Behold, it is approaching.
Kraj dolazi, dolazi ti kraj, evo, dolazi!
7 Destruction is coming over you, who live upon the earth. The time is approaching, the day of slaughter is near, and it is not of the glory of the mountains.
Kolo ti udesa dolazi, stanovniče zemlje! Dolazi tvoj čas, bliži se dan: strava je, a ne radost u gorama.
8 Now, very soon, I will pour out my wrath upon you, and I will fulfill my fury in you. And I will judge you according to your ways, and I will set upon you all your crimes.
Eto, uskoro ću na te izliti gnjev i iskalit ću na tebi srdžbu svoju! Sudit ću ti prema putovima tvojim i oborit ću na te sve gadosti tvoje.
9 And my eye will not be lenient, nor will I take pity. Instead, I will place your ways upon you, and your abominations will be in your midst. And you shall know that I am the Lord, who is striking.
I moje te oči neće požaliti, neću ti se smilovati, nego ću ti platiti prema putovima tvojim i tvoje će gadosti u tebi ostati! I spoznat ćete da sam ja Jahve koji bije.
10 Behold, the day! Behold, it approaches! Destruction has gone forth, the rod has blossomed, arrogance has germinated.
Evo, evo dolazi, kolo ti udesa dolazi, prut već cvjeta i oholost pupa,
11 Iniquity has risen up into a rod of impiety. There shall be nothing left of them, and of their people, and of the sound of them. And there shall be no rest for them.
a nasilje se podiže kao žezlo bezbožnosti! I nitko neće ostati od njih, nitko od njihova mnoštva. Ništa od njihove buke, nema u njima vrijednosti.
12 The time is approaching; the day is very near. Whoever buys should not rejoice. And whoever sells should not mourn. For wrath is over all of their people.
Ide vrijeme, bliži se dan! Tko kupuje, neka se ne raduje, a tko prodaje, neka ne tuguje, jer se gnjev izlijeva na sve bogatstvo njegovo.
13 For whoever sells will not return to what he has sold, but as yet their life will be among the living. For the vision concerning their entire multitude will not turn back. And man will not be strengthened in the iniquity of his life.
Jer tko proda, neće više dobiti što je prodao, i nitko neće bezakonjem ojačati život!
14 Sound the trumpet! Let everyone be prepared! And yet there is no one who may go to battle. For my wrath is over all their people.
Trube trublje i sve je spremno, ali nitko ne kreće u boj, jer gnjev se moj izlijeva na sve bučno mnoštvo.
15 The sword is outside, and the pestilence and the famine are inside. Whoever is in the field will die by the sword. And whoever is in the city will be devoured by the pestilence and the famine.
Vani - mač, a unutra - kuga i glad! I tko je u polju, od mača će poginuti, a tko u gradu, glad će ga i kuga uništiti.
16 And those who flee from among them will be saved. And they will be among the mountains, like doves in steep valleys, with every one of them trembling, each one because of his iniquity.
Koji uteku, sklonit će se u gore kao dolinski golubovi, a ja ću ih sve istrijebiti, svakoga zbog bezakonja njegova,
17 All hands will be weakened, and all knees will flow with water.
i sve će ruke klonuti, a koljena će svima malaksati.
18 And they will wrap themselves with haircloth, and dread will cover them. And shame will be upon every face, and baldness will be upon all of their heads.
U kostrijet će se odjenuti, trepet će ih obuzeti, sva će lica sramota pokriti, sve će im glave oćelavjeti!
19 Their silver will be thrown away, and their gold will be like a dunghill. Their silver and their gold will have no power to free them in the day of the fury of the Lord. They will not satisfy their soul, and their bellies will not be filled, because of the scandal of their iniquity.
Srebro svoje pobacat će na ulice, a zlato će smatrati izmetom: u dan srdžbe Jahvine ni srebro ni zlato neće ih izbaviti, duše im neće moći nasititi ni trbuha napuniti, jer se o to spotakoše na grijeh.
20 And they have set arrogance as the ornament of their necklaces, and they have made images of their abominations and graven idols. Because of this, I have let it be an uncleanness for them.
Uzoholiše se zbog divnoga nakita svojega; od njega napraviše kumire - grozote i gadosti svoje: zato im ga pretvorih u izmet.
21 And I will give it into the hands of foreigners as a spoil, and to the impious of the earth as a prey, and they will defile it.
Dat ću ga u ruke tuđincima da oplijene, razgrabe i oskvrnu.
22 And I will avert my face from them, and they will violate my place of mystery. And untamed persons will enter into it, and they will defile it.
Odvratit ću od njih lice svoje: i neka se samo oskvrnjuje moja dragocjenost, neka u nju uđu provalnici i neka je oskvrnu!
23 Cause it to be closed. For the land has been filled with the judgment of blood, and the city is full of iniquity.
Spremaj lance, jer je zemlja puna krvi i zločina koji zaslužuju smrt i grad prepun nasilja!
24 And I will lead in the most sinful among the Gentiles, and they will possess their houses. And I will cause the arrogance of the powerful to be quieted. And they will possess their sanctuaries.
Zato ću dovesti najgore narode da baštine njihove domove. Slomit ću oholost nasilnika, i svetišta njihova bit će oskvrnjena.
25 When anguish overwhelms them, they will seek peace, and there will be none.
Dolazi tjeskoba! Tražit će mir, a mira biti neće!
26 Disturbance will follow after disturbance, and rumor after rumor. And they will seek the vision of the prophet, and the law will perish from the priest, and counsel will perish from the elders.
Dolazit će nevolja za nevoljom, jedna zla vijest za drugom! I tražit će se viđenje u proroka; u svećenika neće više biti Zakona ni u starješina savjeta!
27 The king will mourn, and the prince will be clothed with grief, and the hands of the people of the earth will be greatly disturbed. I will act toward them in accord with their own way, and I will judge them in accord with their own judgments. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
Kralj će protužiti, a kneza će spopasti užas i ruke će puku zadrhtati, jer ću ih nagraditi prema putovima njihovim i sudit ću im prema sudovima njihovim. I znat će da sam ja Jahve.”
