Ezekiel 29
1 In the tenth year, in the tenth [month], on the twelfth of the month, the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
V desetem letu, v desetem mesecu, na dvanajsti dan meseca je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
2 Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against the whole of Egypt;
»Človeški sin, naravnaj svoj obraz proti faraonu, egiptovskemu kralju in prerokuj zoper njega in zoper ves Egipt.
3 speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great monster that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which saith, My river is mine own, and I made it for myself.
Govori in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Glej, jaz sem zoper tebe, faraon, egiptovski kralj, veliki zmaj, ki ležiš v sredi svojih rek, ki praviš: ›Moja reka je moja lastna in naredil sem jo zase.‹
4 And I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales;
Toda dal ti bom kavlje v čeljusti in ribam tvojih rek bom povzročil, da se prilepijo na tvoje luskine in izvlekel te bom iz srede tvojih rek in vse ribe tvojih rek se bodo prilepile na tvoje luskine.
5 and I will cast thee into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open field; thou shalt not be brought together nor gathered: I will give thee for meat to the beasts of the earth and to the fowl of the heavens.
In pustil te bom vreči v divjino, tebe in vse ribe tvojih rek. Padel boš na odprta polja; ne boš zbližan niti ne zbran. Dal sem te za hrano poljskim živalim in perjadi neba.
6 And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I [am] Jehovah, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
In vsi prebivalci Egipta bodo spoznali, da jaz sem Gospod, ker so bili trstična palica za Izraelovo hišo.‹
7 When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst give way and rend all their shoulder; and when they leaned upon thee, thou didst break, and didst make all their loins to tremble.
Kadar so te prijeli za tvojo roko, si se zlomil in raztrgal vso njihovo ramo, in ko so se oprli nate, si se zlomil in storil, da vsa njihova ledja odrevenijo.‹
8 Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast from thee.
Zato tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Glej, nadte bom privedel meč in iz tebe iztrebil človeka in žival.
9 And the land of Egypt shall be a desolation and a waste: and they shall know that I [am] Jehovah, because he saith, The river is mine, and I made it.
In egiptovska dežela bo zapuščena in opustošena; in spoznali bodo, da jaz sem Gospod, ker je rekel: ›Reka je moja in jaz sem jo naredil.‹
10 Therefore behold, I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt deserts of wasteness and desolation, from Migdol to Syene, even unto the border of Ethiopia.
Glej, zato sem zoper tebe in zoper tvoje reke in egiptovsko deželo bom naredil popolnoma opustošeno in zapuščeno od Siénskega stolpa celó do meje Etiopije.
11 No foot of man shall pass through it, nor shall foot of beast pass through it, nor shall it be inhabited, forty years.
Skoznjo ne bo šlo nobeno človeško stopalo niti ne bo šlo skozi živalsko stopalo niti štirideset let ne bo naseljena.
12 And I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the midst of the countries that are desolated, and her cities shall be, in the midst of the cities that are laid waste, a desolation forty years; and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
In egiptovsko deželo bom naredil zapuščeno v sredi pokrajin, ki so zapuščene in njena mesta, med mesti, ki so opustošena, bodo zapuščena štirideset let in Egipčane bom razkropil med narode in jih razpodil po pokrajinah.‹
13 Yet thus saith the Lord Jehovah: At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the peoples whither they were scattered;
Vendar tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Ob koncu štiridesetih let bom zbral Egipčane izmed ljudstev, kamor so bili razkropljeni,
14 and I will turn again the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return to the land of Pathros, into the land of their birth, and they shall there be a base kingdom.
in ponovno bom privedel ujetništvo Egipta in povzročil jim bom, da se vrnejo v deželo Patrós, v deželo svojega prebivališča; in tam bodo nizko kraljestvo.
15 It shall be the basest of kingdoms; neither shall it exalt itself any more above the nations; and I will diminish them, so that they shall no more rule over the nations.
To bo najnižje izmed kraljestev niti se ne bo več povzdigovalo nad narodi, kajti jaz jih bom zmanjšal, da ne bodo več vladali nad narodi.
16 And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to remembrance, when they turn after them: and they shall know that I [am] the Lord Jehovah.
In le-to ne bo več zaupanje Izraelove hiše, ki v spomin prinaša njihovo krivičnost, ko bodo gledali za njimi, toda spoznali bodo, da jaz sem Gospod Bog.‹«
17 And it came to pass in the twenty-seventh year, in the first [month], on the first of the month, [that] the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
Pripetilo se je v sedemindvajsetem letu, v prvem mesecu, na prvi dan meseca, [da] je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
18 Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to do hard service against Tyre; every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: yet had he from Tyre no wages, nor his army, for the service that he had served against it.
»Človeški sin, babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar je svoji vojski storil, da služi sijajno službo zoper Tir. Vsaka glava je bila narejena plešasto in vsaka rama je bila oluščena, vendar ni imel nobenih plačil niti njegova vojska za Tir, za službo, ki jo je opravil zoper njega.
19 Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall carry away her multitude, and seize her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
Zato tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Glej, egiptovsko deželo bom dal Nebukadnezarju, babilonskemu kralju; in on bo zajel njeno množico in vzel njeno ukradeno blago in vzel njen plen; in to bodo plačila za njegovo vojsko.
20 I have given him the land of Egypt for his labour wherewith he served against it, because they wrought for me, saith the Lord Jehovah.
Izročil sem mu egiptovsko deželo za njegov trud, s katerim je služil zoper njo, ker so delali zame, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.
21 In that day will I cause the horn of the house of Israel to bud forth, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them: and they shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
›Na tisti dan bom rogu Izraelove hiše povzročil, da vzbrsti in jaz ti bom dal odprtje ust v njihovi sredi, in spoznali bodo, da jaz sem Gospod.‹«
