Ezekiel 3
1 “Son of man,” he told me, “eat what you find placed before you. Eat this scroll, then go and speak to the people of Israel.”
Poleg tega mi je rekel: »Človeški sin, jej, kar najdeš. Pojej ta zvitek in pojdi, govori Izraelovi hiši.«
2 I opened my mouth, and he gave me the scroll to eat.
Tako sem odprl svoja usta in dal mi je, da sem pojedel ta zvitek.
3 “Son of man,” he said to me, “eat and fill yourself up with this scroll I'm giving you.” So I ate the scroll, and it tasted as sweet as honey.
Rekel mi je: »Človeški sin, stôri svojemu trebuhu, da jé in svojo notranjost napolni s tem zvitkom, ki ti ga dajem.« Potem sem to pojedel in v mojih ustih je bil zaradi sladkosti kakor med.
4 Then he told me, “Son of man, now you are to go to the people of Israel and give my message to them.
Rekel mi je: »Človeški sin, pojdi, stopi k Izraelovi hiši in jim govori z mojimi besedami.
5 I'm not sending you to those whose language is foreign to you, to people that you don't know—but to the people of Israel.
Kajti nisi poslan k ljudstvu tujega govora in trdega jezika, temveč k Izraelovi hiši,
6 As I say, I'm not sending you to those whose language is foreign to you, to people that you don't know, whose words you don't understand. On the other hand, if I had sent you to foreigners, they would have listened to you.
ne k mnogim ljudstvom tujega govora in trdega jezika, katerih besed ne moreš razumeti. Zagotovo, če bi te poslal k njim, bi ti prisluhnili.
7 But the people of Israel won't want to listen to you, because they don't want to listen to me. All the Israelites are strong-minded and hard-hearted.
Toda Izraelova hiša ti ne bo hotela prisluhniti, kajti nočejo mi prisluhniti, kajti vsa Izraelova hiša je predrzna in trdosrčna.
8 Look! I'm going to make you as tough as them, and as strong-minded as them.
Glej, tvoj obraz sem otrdil zoper njihove obraze in tvoje čelo zoper njihova čela.
9 I will make your mind like adamant, harder than flint. Don't be afraid of what they say or discouraged by the way they look at you, even though they are a rebellious people.”
Kakor je diamant trši kakor kremen, [tako] sem naredil tvoje čelo. Ne boj se jih niti ne bodi zaprepaden ob njihovih pogledih, kajti uporna hiša so.«
10 “Son of man,” he added, “pay close attention to everything I tell you, and think deeply about it yourself.
Poleg tega mi je rekel: »Človeški sin, vse moje besede, ki ti jih bom govoril, sprejmi v svoje srce in poslušaj s svojimi ušesi.
11 Go to your people who are in exile. Tell them this is what the Lord God says, whether they listen or not.”
Pojdi, stopi k tistim iz ujetništva, k otrokom svojega ljudstva in jim govori ter jim povej: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog, bodisi bodo poslušali ali bodisi se bodo zadržali.‹«
12 The Spirit lifted me up, and I heard a really loud noise behind me that sounded like an earthquake. (Praise to the Lord's glory where he lives!)
Potem me je duh vzel gor in za seboj sem zaslišal glas velikega hitenja, rekoč: »Blagoslovljena bodi Gospodova slava iz njegovega kraja.«
13 It was the sound made by the wings of the beings as they brushed against each other and the noise made by the wheels next to them, a really loud noise that sounded like an earthquake.
Slišal sem tudi šum peruti živih ustvarjenih bitij, ki so se dotikala druga druge in hrup koles nasproti njih in šum velikega hitenja.
14 As I said, the Spirit lifted me up and carried me away. As I went I was feeling upset and angry; however the Lord's power had taken full control of me.
Tako me je duh dvignil in me odnesel in šel sem v grenkobi, v vročici svojega duha, toda Gospodova roka je bila močna nad menoj.
15 I arrived at the place where the exiles lived, Tel-abib by the River Kebar. I just sat with them, staying with them there for seven days. I was completely overcome with emotion.
Potem sem prišel k tistim iz ujetništva pri Tel Abíbu, ki prebivajo pri reki Kebár in se usedel, kjer so sedeli in osupel ostal tam med njimi sedem dni.
16 After the seven days had passed, a message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Pripetilo se je ob koncu sedmih dni, da je k meni prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
17 “Son of man, I have chosen you as a watchman for the people of Israel. Whenever I give you a message, then you must warn them for me.
»Človeški sin, naredil sem te stražarja Izraelovi hiši, zato poslušaj besedo pri mojih ustih in jim daj svarilo od mene.
18 For example, if I give a warning to someone who's wicked, saying, ‘You are going to die for sure,’ but you don't warn them, if you don't speak out to warn them to stop their wicked ways so they can go on living, then that wicked person will die in their sins, and I will hold you responsible for their death.
Ko rečem zlobnemu: ›Gotovo boš umrl, ‹ pa mu ne daješ svarila niti ne govoriš, da zlobnega posvariš pred njegovo zlobno potjo, da bi rešil njegovo življenje, bo ta isti zlobni človek umrl v svoji krivičnosti, toda njegovo kri bom zahteval iz tvoje roke.
19 But if you warn them, and they don't stop their wicked ways, they will die in their sins, but you will have saved yourself—you won't die.
Vendar če posvariš zlobnega, pa se ta ne odvrne od svoje zlobnosti niti od svoje zlobne poti, bo umrl v svoji krivičnosti, toda ti si osvobodil svojo dušo.«
20 Again, if someone who lives right stops doing so and sins and disregards my attempts to correct them, then they will die. If you didn't warn them, they will die in their sins, and the good things they did won't be remembered. In addition, I will hold you responsible for their death.
Ponovno: »Kadar se pravičen človek odvrne od svoje pravičnosti in zagreši krivičnost in predenj položim kamen spotike, bo umrl; ker mu nisi dal svarila, bo umrl v svojem grehu in njegove pravičnosti, ki jo je storil, se ne bo spominjalo, temveč bom njegovo kri zahteval iz tvoje roke.
21 However, if you warn those who are living right not to sin, and they don't sin, they will live for sure, because they paid attention to your warning, and you will have saved yourself—you won't die.”
Vendar če posvariš pravičnega človeka, da pravični ne greši in ta ne greši, bo zagotovo živel, ker je posvarjen; tudi ti si osvobodil svojo dušo.«
22 The Lord's power took control of me there, and he told me, “Get up! Go to the valley, and I will talk to you there.”
Tam je bila nad menoj Gospodova roka in rekel mi je: »Vstani, pojdi naprej na ravnino in tam bom govoril s teboj.«
23 So I got up and went to the valley, and there I saw the Lord's glory. It was like the glory I had seen by the River Kebar. I fell facedown on the ground.
Potem sem vstal in odšel naprej na ravnino. Glej, tam je stala Gospodova slava kakor slava, ki sem jo videl pri reki Kebár, in padel sem na svoj obraz.
24 Then the Spirit came into me and made me stand upright. He told me, “Go into your house and shut the door.
Potem je vame vstopil duh in me postavil na moja stopala in spregovoril z menoj ter mi rekel: »Pojdi, zapri se znotraj svoje hiše.
25 You will be tied up with ropes, son of man. You will be bound so that won't be able to go out among the people.
Toda ti, oh človeški sin, glej, nate bodo dali vezi in te zvezali z njimi in ne boš šel ven mednje,
26 I'll make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth. You won't be able to speak and complain to them, even though they are a rebellious people.
jaz pa bom tvoj jezik prilepil k nebu tvojih ust, da boš nem in jim ne boš grajavec, kajti uporna hiša so.
27 However, when I talk with you, I will open your mouth so you can tell them that this is what the Lord God says. Those who want to listen will listen, and those who want to refuse will refuse, for they are a rebellious people.”
Toda ko jaz spregovorim s teboj, bom odprl tvoja usta in ti jim boš rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Kdor posluša, naj sliši, in kdor se zadrži, naj se zadržuje, kajti uporna hiša so.‹«
