Ezekiel 9
1 And he cried in my ears with a loud voice, saying: The visitations of the city are at hand, and every one hath a destroying weapon in his hand.
Потом повика гласно, те чух, и рече: Приступите који сте послани на град сваки с оружјем својим смртним у руци.
2 And behold six men came from the way of the upper gate, which looketh to the north: and each one had his weapon of destruction in his hand: and there was one man in the midst of them clothed with linen, with a writer’s inkhorn at his reins: and they went in, and stood by the brazen altar.
И гле, шест људи дође до високих врата, која гледају на север, сваки са својим оружјем смртним у руци, и међу њима беше један човек обучен у платно с оправом писарском уз бедрицу; и дошавши стадоше код олтара бронзаног.
3 And the glory of the Lord of Israel went up from the cherub, upon which he was, to the threshold of the house: and he called to the man that was clothed with linen, and had a writer’s inkhorn at his loins.
А слава Бога Израиљевог подиже се с херувима, на којима беше, на праг од дома, и викну човека обученог у платно који имаше уз бедрицу оправу писарску.
4 And the Lord said to him: Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem: and mark Thau upon the foreheads of the men that sigh, and mourn for all the abominations that are committed in the midst thereof.
И рече му Господ: Прођи посред града, посред Јерусалима, и забележи белегом чела оним људима који уздишу и који ридају ради свих гадова што се чине усред њега.
5 And to the others he said in my hearing: Go ye after him through the city, and strike: let not your eyes spare, nor be ye moved with pity.
А другима рече и чух: Прођите за њим по граду, и побијте, нека не жали око ваше нити се смилујте;
6 Utterly destroy old and young, maidens, children and women: but upon whomsoever you shall see Thau, kill him not, and begin ye at my sanctuary. So they began at the ancient men who mere before the house.
Старце и младиће, и девојке и децу и жене побијте да се истребе; али на коме год буде знак, к њему не приступајте; и почните од моје светиње. И почеше од моје светиње. И почеше од старешина што беху пред домом.
7 And he said to them: Defile the house, and ill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew them that were in the city.
И рече им: Оскврните дом, и напуните тремове побијених; идите. И изашавши стадоше убијати.
8 And the slaughter being ended I was left: and I fell upon my face, and crying, I said: Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, wilt thou then destroy all the remnant of Israel, by pouring out thy fury upon Jerusalem?
А кад убијаху и ја остах, падох на лице своје и повиках и рекох: Јаох Господе Господе, еда ли ћеш затрти сав остатак Израиљев изливши гнев свој на Јерусалим?
9 And he said to me: The iniquity of the house of Israel, and of Juda, is exceeding great, and the land is filled with blood, and the city is filled with perverseness: for they have said: The Lord hath forsaken the earth, and the Lord seeth not.
А Он ми рече: Безакоње дома Израиљевог и Јудиног превелико је, и пуна је земља крви, и град је пун опачине; јер рекоше: Господ је оставио земљу, и Господ не види.
10 Therefore neither shall my eye spare, nor will I have pity: I will requite their way upon their head.
Зато ни моје око неће жалити, нити ћу се смиловати; пут њихов обратићу на главу њихову.
11 And behold the man that was clothed with linen, that had the inkhorn at his back, returned the word, saying: I have done as thou hast commanded me.
И гле, човек обучени у платно, коме уз бедрицу беше оправа писарска, јави говорећи: Учинио сам како си ми заповедио.
