Ezekiel 29

1 In the tenth year, the tenth month, the eleventh day of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

Godine desete, desetoga mjeseca, dvanaestoga dana, doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:

2 Son of man, set thy face against Pharao king of Egypt: and thou shalt prophesy of him, and of all Egypt:

Sine èovjeèji, okreni lice svoje prema Faraonu caru Misirskom, i prorokuj protiv njega i protiv svega Misira.

3 Speak, and say: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I come against thee, Pharao king of Egypt, thou great dragon that liest in the midst of thy rivers, and sayest: The river is mine, and I made myself.

Govori i reci: ovako veli Gospod Gospod: evo me na te, Faraone care Misirski, zmaju veliki što ležiš usred rijeka svojih, koji reèe: moja je rijeka; ja sam je naèinio sebi.

4 But I will put a bridle in thy jaws: and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick to thy scales: and I will draw thee out of the midst of thy rivers, and all thy fish shall stick to thy scales.

Zato æu ti metnuti u èeljusti udicu, i uèiniæu da se ribe u rijekama tvojim nahvataju na krljušti tvoje; i izvuæi æu te iz rijeka tvojih i sve ribe iz rijeka tvojih nahvatane na krljušti tvoje.

5 And I will cast thee forth into the desert, and all the fish of thy river: thou shalt fall upon the face of the earth, thou shalt not be taken up, nor gathered together: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the earth, and to the fowls of the air.

I ostaviæu u pustinji tebe i sve ribe iz tvojih rijeka, i pašæeš na zemlju i neæeš se pokupiti ni sabrati, zvijerima zemaljskim i pticama nebeskim daæu te da te jedu.

6 And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the Lord: because thou hast been a staff of a reed to the house of Israel.

I svi æe stanovnici Misirski poznati da sam ja Gospod; jer su štap od trske domu Izrailjevu.

7 When they took hold of thee with the hand thou didst break, and rent all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brokest, and weakenest all their loins.

Kad te uhvatiše u ruku, ti se slomi i rasijeèe im sve rame; a kad se nasloniše na te, ti se prebi i probode im sva bedra.

8 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will bring the sword upon thee: and cut off man and beast out of thee.

Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: evo, ja æu pustiti na te maè, i istrijebiæu iz tebe ljude i stoku.

9 And the land of Egypt shall become a desert, and a wilderness: and they shall know that I am the Lord: because thou hast said: The river is mine, and I made it.

I zemlja æe se Misirska opustošiti i biti pusta, i poznaæe se da sam ja Gospod, jer reèe: moja je rijeka, i ja sam je naèinio.

10 Therefore, behold I come against thee, and thy rivers: and I will make the land of Egypt utterly desolate, and wasted by the sword, from the tower of Syene, even to the borders of Ethiopia.

Zato evo me na tebe i na rijeke tvoje, i obratiæu zemlju Misirsku u pustoš i samu pustinju, od kule Sinske do meðe Etiopske.

11 The foot of man shall not pass through it, neither shall the foot of beasts go through it: nor shall it be inhabited during forty years.

Neæe prelaziti preko nje nogom svojom èovjek, niti æe živinèe nogom svojom prelaziti preko nje, i neæe se živjeti u njoj èetrdeset godina.

12 And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the lands that are desolate, and the cities thereof in the midst of the cities that are destroyed, and they shall be desolate for forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.

I uèiniæu od zemlje Misirske pustoš meðu zemljama opustošenim, i gradovi æe njezini meðu pustijem gradovima biti pustoš èetrdeset godina, i rasijaæu Misirce meðu narode i razasuæu ih po zemljama.

13 For thus saith the Lord God: At the end of forty years I will gather the Egyptians from the people among whom they had been scattered.

Jer ovako veli Gospod Gospod: poslije èetrdeset godina skupiæu Misirce iz naroda u koje budu rasijani.

14 And I will bring back the captivity of Egypt, and will place them in the land of Phatures, in the land of their nativity, and they shall be there a low kingdom:

I povratiæu roblje Misirsko, i dovešæu ih opet u zemlju Patros, na postojbinu njihovu, i ondje æe biti malo carstvo.

15 It shall be the lowest among other kingdoms, and it shall no more be exalted over the nations, and I will diminish them that they shall rule no more over the nations.

Malo æe biti mimo ostala carstva, niti æe se više uzdignuti nad narode, jer æu ih smanjiti da ne vladaju narodima.

16 And they shall be no more a confidence to the house of Israel, teaching iniquity, that they may flee, and follow them: and they shall know that I am the Lord God.

I neæe više biti domu Izrailjevu uzdanica da napominje bezakonje kad bi gledali za njima; i poznaæe da sam ja Gospod Gospod.

17 And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first of the month: that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

A dvadeset sedme godine, prvoga mjeseca, prvoga dana, doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:

18 Son of man, Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon hath made his army to undergo hard service against Tyre: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled: and there hath been no reward given him, nor his army for Tyre, for the service that he rendered me against it.

Sine èovjeèji, Navuhodonosor car Vavilonski zadade vojsci svojoj tešku službu protiv Tira; svaka glava oæelavi i svako se rame odrije, a plate ne bi ni njemu ni vojsci njegovoj od Tira za službu kojom služiše protiv njega.

19 Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will set Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon in the land of Egypt: and he shall take her multitude, and take the booty thereof for a prey, and rifle the spoils thereof: and it shall be wages for his army.

Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: evo ja dajem Navuhodonosoru caru Vavilonskom zemlju Misirsku, i on æe odvesti narod i odnijeti plijen i pograbiti grabež, i to æe biti plata njegovoj vojsci.

20 And for the service that he hath done me against it: I have given him the land of Egypt, because he hath laboured for me, saith the Lord God.

Za trud kojim se trudio oko toga dadoh mu zemlju Misirsku, jer se za me trudiše, govori Gospod Gospod.

21 In that day a horn shall bud forth to the house of Israel, and I will give thee an open mouth in the midst of them: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

U onaj æu dan uèiniti da naraste rog domu Izrailjevu, i tebi æu otvoriti usta meðu njima, i znaæe da sam ja Gospod.
