Ezekiel 25

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:

2 Son of man, set thy face against the children of Ammon, and thou shalt prophesy of them.

“Sine čovječji, okreni lice k sinovima Amonovim te prorokuj protiv njih!

3 And thou shalt say to the children of Ammon: Hear ye the word of the Lord God: Thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast said: Ha, ha, upon my sanctuary, because it was profaned: and upon the land of Israel, because it was laid waste: and upon the house of Juda, because they are led into captivity:

Reci sinovima Amonovim: 'Poslušajte riječ Jahve Gospoda! Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Zato što vi klicaste 'ha, ha!' nad mojim Svetištem kad ono bijaše oskvrnuto, i nad zemljom Izraelovom kad ona bijaše opustošena, i nad domom Judinim kad odlažaše u izgnanstvo,

4 Therefore will I deliver thee to the men of the east for an inheritance, and they shall place their sheepcotes in thee, and shall set up their tents in thee: they shall eat thy fruits: and they shall drink thy milk.

predat ću vas, evo, u posjed sinovima Istoka da usred vas razapnu svoje šatore, udare svoja prebivališta. Oni neka jedu tvoje plodove i piju mlijeko tvoje!

5 And I will make Rabbath a stable for camels, and the children of Ammon a couching place for flocks: and you shall know that I am the Lord.

Od Rabe ću pašnjake za deve načiniti, a u zemlji Amonovih sinova torove ću za ovce podići. I znat ćete da sam ja Jahve!'

6 For thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast clapped thy hands and stamped with thy foot, and hast rejoiced with all thy heart against the land of Israel:

Jer ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Zato što si pljeskao rukama i udarao nogama i svom se dušom radovao nad zemljom Izraelovom,

7 Therefore behold I: will stretch forth my hand upon thee, and will deliver thee to be the spoil of nations, and will cut thee off from among the people, and destroy thee out of the lands, and break thee in pieces: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.

ja ću, evo, ruku na te podići i kao plijen te predati narodima! Istrijebit ću te iz narodÄa, iskorijeniti iz zemalja! Zatrijet ću te! I znat ćeš da sam ja Jahve!

8 Thus saith the Lord God: Because Moab and Seir have said: Behold the house of Juda is like all other nations:

Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Zato što Moab i Seir govorahu: 'Gle, dom je Judin poput svih naroda',

9 Therefore behold I will open the shoulder of Moab from the cities, from his cities, I say, and his borders, the noble cities of the land of Bethiesimoth, and Beelmeon, and Cariathaim,

otkrit ću, evo, obronke moapske, da s kraja na kraj ostane bez gradova što bijahu ukras zemlje: Bet Haješimot, Baal Meon i Kirjatajim.

10 To the people of the east with the children of Ammon, and I will give it them for an inheritance: that there may be no more any remembrance of the children of Ammon among the nations.

Dat ću ih u posjed sinovima Istoka, neprijateljima Amonaca, da se sinovi Amonovi među narodima više ne spominju!

11 And I will execute judgments in Moab: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

Tako ću izvršiti sud nad Moabom. I znat će da sam ja Jahve!'

12 Thus saith the Lord God: Because Edom hath taken vengeance to revenge herself of the children of Juda, and hath greatly offended, and hath sought revenge of them:

Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Zato što se Edom osveti domu Judinu i tom se osvetom teško ogriješi,

13 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: I will stretch forth my hand upon Edom, and will take away out of it man and beast, and will make it desolate from the south: and they that are in Dedan shall fall by the sword.

ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Podići ću ruku na Edom, istrijebit ću iz njega ljude i životinje! Pretvorit ću ga u pustinju: od Temana do Dedana svi će od mača izginuti.

14 And I will lay my vengeance upon Edom by the hand of my people Israel: and they shall do in Edom according to my wrath, and my fury: and they shall know my vengeance, saith the Lord God.

Tako ću se osvetiti Edomu rukom svojega naroda izraelskog. Oni će postupiti s Edomom prema mojem gnjevu i mojoj srdžbi. I spoznat će moju osvetu!' - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.

15 Thus saith the Lord God: Because the Philistines have taken vengeance, and have revenged themselves with all their mind, destroying and satisfying old enmities:

Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Zato što Filistejci izvršiše odmazdu, krvavo se osvećujući s mržnjom u srcu, razarajući sve zbog svojeg neprijateljstva,

16 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will stretch forth my hand upon the Philistines, and will kill the killers, and will destroy the remnant of the sea coast.

ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Evo, podižem ruku na Filistejce, istrijebit ću Kerećane, uništit ću sve što preostane na morskoj obali!

17 And I will execute great vengeance upon them, rebuking them in fury: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.

Tako ću im se strašno osvetiti kaznama jarosnim. I kad im se osvetim, znat će da sam ja Jahve.'”
