Ezekiel 21
1 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
In k meni je prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
2 “Son of man, face towards Jerusalem and condemn their places of worship. Prophesy against the people living in Israel
»Človeški sin, naravnaj svoj obraz proti Jeruzalemu in spusti svojo besedo proti svetim krajem in prerokuj zoper Izraelovo deželo
3 and tell them that this is what the Lord says: Watch out, because I'm going to attack you! I'm going to take out my sword and destroy you, both the good and the bad.
in reci Izraelovi deželi: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Glej, jaz sem zoper tebe in izvlekel bom svoj meč iz nožnice in iz tebe bom iztrebil pravičnega in zlobnega.
4 Because I'm going to destroy both the good and the bad, I will attack everyone from the north to the south.
Ker bom iz tebe iztrebil pravičnega in zlobnega, bo zato moj meč šel iz nožnice zoper vse meso od juga do severa,
5 Then the whole world will know that I, the Lord, have taken out my sword, and won't put it back again.
da bo lahko vse meso vedelo, da sem jaz, Gospod, izvlekel svoj meč iz nožnice. Ta se ne bo več vrnil.
6 You, son of man, you are to groan. Groan as if you're broken up inside, showing terrible sadness while they watch you.
Zdihuj torej, ti, človeški sin, s trganjem svojih ledij; in z grenkim vzdihom pred njihovimi očmi.
7 When they ask, ‘What are you groaning for?’ you are to tell them, ‘Because of the news that's coming. All of you will lose your courage and you'll be paralyzed with fear. All of you will be weak with worry—you won't be able to stand up!’ Watch out, because it's coming! It's going to happen! declares the Lord God.”
In zgodilo se bo, ko ti bodo rekli: ›Zakaj vzdihuješ?‹ da boš odgovoril: ›Zaradi novic, ker le-te prihajajo.‹ In vsako srce se bo stopilo in vse roke bodo slabotne in vsak duh bo medlel in vsa kolena bodo šibka kakor voda. Glej, to prihaja in se bo zgodilo, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.«
8 Another message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Ponovno je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
9 “Son of man, prophesy! Tell them this is what the Lord says: There's a sword, a sword that's being sharpened and polished.
»Človeški sin, prerokuj in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Reci: ›Meč, meč je nabrušen in tudi zglajen.
10 It's sharpened for killing and polished so it will flash like lightning! (Are we to be happy, saying, ‘The scepter of my son despises every other stick’?)
Nabrušen je, da naredi boleč pokol; zglajen je, da se lahko lesketa. Naj bi se mi potem razveseljevali? Ta zaničuje palico mojega sina kakor vsako drevo.
11 The sword is being polished right now, ready to be used. It's sharp and polished, ready to be handed over to the killer.
In on ga je dal zgladiti, da bi lahko z njim rokoval. Ta meč je nabrušen in zglajen, da ga da v roko ubijalca.
12 Weep and wail, son of man, and slap your thigh in grief, for the sword is going to be used to attack my people, to attack all the leaders of Israel! They will be thrown away, killed by the sword along with my people.
Jokaj in tuli, človeški sin, kajti ta bo nad mojim ljudstvom, ta bo nad Izraelovimi princi. Strahote zaradi meča bodo nad mojim ljudstvom. Udari torej na svoje stegno.
13 They will be tested. What if the scepter that despises others doesn't continue? declares the Lord God.
Ker je to preizkušnja in kaj če meč zaničuje celo palico? To ne bo več, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.
14 So son of man, prophesy and clap your hands. The sword will attack twice, and then a third time. It is a sword of death, killing many people by coming at them from every direction.
›Ti torej, človeški sin, prerokuj in zaploskaj s svojima rokama in naj bo meč tretjič podvojen, meč umorjenih. To je meč velikih ljudi, ki so umorjeni, ki vstopa v njihove skrivne sobe.
15 I have placed a sword at all the gates of their city so that they may lose their courage, and many may fall. Oh no! It's made to flash like lightning and used to kill.
Konico meča sem naravnal zoper vsa njihova velika vrata, da bo njihovo srce lahko slabelo in [bodo] njihovi propadi pomnoženi. Ah! Narejen je [da se] lesketa, zavit je za pokol.
16 Slash right and left, whichever way you're facing.
Pojdi eno pot ali drugo, ali na desno ali na levo, kamor je naravnan tvoj obraz.
17 I will also clap my hands, and then my anger will be over. I, the Lord, have spoken.”
Tudi jaz bom plosknil s svojima rokama in bom umiril svojo razjarjenost. Jaz, Gospod, sem to govoril.‹«
18 Another message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Ponovno je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
19 “Son of man, mark the two roads that the king of Babylon's army could take, beginning from the same country. Make a signpost where the road forks, leading to two different cities.
»Tudi ti, človeški sin, si določi dve poti, da bo lahko prišel meč babilonskega kralja. Obe bosta izšli iz ene dežele in izberi kraj, izberi ga ob začetku poti v mesto.
20 Have one sign point down the road for an attack on the Ammonite city of Rabbah, and another to attack Judah and the fortified city of Jerusalem.
Določi pot, da lahko pride meč v Rabo Amóncev in v Juda in zaščiteno [prestolnico] Jeruzalem.
21 The king of Babylon is standing at the fork in the road where the two roads meet looking for a prophetic sign: he casts lots using arrows, he asks advice from idols, and he examines the liver of sacrificial animals.
Kajti babilonski kralj je stal pri razpotju poti, ob začetku dveh poti, da uporabi vedeževanje. Svoje puščice je posvetlil, posvetoval se je z družinskimi maliki, gledal je v jetra.
22 He holds the sign for Jerusalem in his right hand. This is where he is going to set up battering rams, to give the command to attack, to shout the war-cry. There he will order the battering rams to smash the gates, set up an attack ramp, and build a siege wall.
Pri njegovi desni roki je bilo vedeževanje za [prestolnico] Jeruzalem, da določi častnike, da odpre usta v pokol, da povzdigne glas s kričanjem, da določi oblegovalne ovne proti velikim vratom, da nasuje nasip in da zgradi utrdbo.
23 To those who have sworn to be loyal to Nebuchadnezzar this will look like a false sign, but it will reveal their guilt and they will be taken prisoner.
In to jim bo kakor napačno vedeževanje v njihovem pogledu, tistim, ki so prisegli prisege, toda v spomin bo priklical krivičnost, da bodo lahko zajeti.‹
24 So this is what the Lord God says: Because you have revealed your guilt and demonstrated your rebellion, showing your sins in everything you've done, now that you've made all this clear, you will be taken prisoner.
Zato tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Ker ste storili, da se bo spominjalo vaše krivičnosti v tem, da so vaši prestopki odkriti, tako da se pri vseh vaših dejanjih pojavijo vaši grehi; ker jaz pravim, da ste prišli v spomin, boste zajeti z roko.
25 As for you, you unclean, wicked prince of Israel, the time has come to complete your punishment.
In ti, oskrunjen, zloben Izraelov princ, katerega dan je prišel, ko se krivičnosti naredi konec, ‹
26 This is what the Lord God says: Take off your turban, and your crown. Things won't continue as they were. Give power to the common people and bring down the powerful!
tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Odstrani diadem in snemi krono. To ne bo [več] isto. Povišaj tistega, ki je nizek in ponižaj tistega, ki je visok.
27 I'm going to destroy everything, make it all a ruin! It won't be restored until its owner arrives, the one I've given the authority to judge.
Jaz bom to preobrnil, preobrnil, preobrnil in tega ne bo nič več, dokler ne pride tisti, katerega pravica je to in njemu jo bom izročil.‹
28 Prophesy, son of man, and announce that this is what the Lord God says about the Ammonites and their insults: A sword! A sword is ready for killing, polished to destroy, to flash like lightning,
Ti pa, človeški sin, prerokuj in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog glede Amóncev in glede njihove graje; celo reci: ›Meč, meč je izvlečen. Za pokol je zglajen, da použiva zaradi lesketanja.
29 even as your prophets give you false visions and prophecies that are lies. This sword will cut the necks of the wicked, killing them—those whose day has come for their punishment to be completed.
Medtem ko zate vidijo ničnost, medtem ko ti vedežujejo laž, da te privedejo nad vratove tistih, ki so umorjeni izmed zlobnih, katerih dan je prišel, ko bo njihova krivičnost končana.
30 Sword, go back to where you came from! I'm going to judge you right where you were created, in your homeland.
Ali mu bom povzročil, da se vrne v svojo nožnico? Sodil te bom na kraju, kjer si bil ustvarjen, v deželi tvojega rojstva.
31 I will deal with you in my anger; I will breathe my fire of anger on you; I will hand you over to cruel men who are experts in destruction.
In nate bom izlil svoje ogorčenje in zoper tebe bom pihal v ognju svojega besa in te izročil v roko brutalnežev in veščih, da uničujejo.
32 You will be burned up like firewood. Your blood will be shed where you live. You will be forgotten, for I, the Lord, have spoken.”
Ti boš za gorivo ognju; tvoja kri bo v sredi dežele; ne bo se te več spominjalo, kajti jaz, Gospod, sem to govoril.‹«
