Ezekiel 21
1 The word of ye Lord came to me againe, saying,
In k meni je prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
2 Sonne of man, set thy face toward Ierusalem, and drop thy word toward the holy places, and prophecie against the land of Israel.
»Človeški sin, naravnaj svoj obraz proti Jeruzalemu in spusti svojo besedo proti svetim krajem in prerokuj zoper Izraelovo deželo
3 And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I come against thee, and will drawe my sword out of his sheath, and cut off from thee both the righteous and the wicked.
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 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee both the righteous and wicked, therefore shall my sworde goe out of his sheath against all flesh from the South to the North,
Ker bom iz tebe iztrebil pravičnega in zlobnega, bo zato moj meč šel iz nožnice zoper vse meso od juga do severa,
5 That all flesh may knowe that I the Lord haue drawen my sworde out of his sheath, and it shall not returne any more.
da bo lahko vse meso vedelo, da sem jaz, Gospod, izvlekel svoj meč iz nožnice. Ta se ne bo več vrnil.
6 Mourne therefore, thou sonne of man, as in the paine of thy reines, and mourne bitterly before them.
Zdihuj torej, ti, človeški sin, s trganjem svojih ledij; in z grenkim vzdihom pred njihovimi očmi.
7 And if they say vnto thee, Wherefore mournest thou? then answere, Because of the bruite: for it commeth, and euery heart shall melt, and all handes shall be weake, and all mindes shall faint, and all knees shall fall away as water: beholde, it commeth, and shall be done, saith 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 Againe, the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Ponovno je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
9 Sonne of man, prophecie, and say, Thus saith the Lord God, say, A sworde, a sworde both sharpe, and fourbished.
»Človeški sin, prerokuj in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Reci: ›Meč, meč je nabrušen in tudi zglajen.
10 It is sharpened to make a sore slaughter, and it is fourbished that it may glitter: how shall we reioyce? for it contemneth the rod of my sonne, as all other trees.
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 And he hath giuen it to be fourbished, that he may handle it: this sword is sharpe, and is fourbished, that he may giue it into ye hand of the slayer.
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 Cry, and houle, sonne of man: for this shall come to my people, and it shall come vnto all the princes of Israel: the terrours of the sword shall be vpon my people: smite therefore vpon thy thigh.
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 For it is a triall, and what shall this be, if the sworde contemne euen the rodde? It shall be no more, saith the Lord God.
Ker je to preizkušnja in kaj če meč zaničuje celo palico? To ne bo več, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.
14 Thou therefore, sonne of man, prophecie, and smite hand to hand, and let the sworde be doubled: let the sworde that hath killed, returne the third time: it is the sword of the great slaughter entring into their priuie chambers.
›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 haue brought the feare of the sword into all their gates to make their heart to faint, and to multiplie their ruines. Ah it is made bright, and it is dressed for the slaughter.
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 Get thee alone: goe to the right hande, or get thy selfe to the left hande, whithersoeuer thy face turneth.
Pojdi eno pot ali drugo, ali na desno ali na levo, kamor je naravnan tvoj obraz.
17 I wil also smite mine hands together, and wil cause my wrath to cease. I the Lord haue said it.
Tudi jaz bom plosknil s svojima rokama in bom umiril svojo razjarjenost. Jaz, Gospod, sem to govoril.‹«
18 The worde of the Lord came vnto mee againe, saying,
Ponovno je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
19 Also thou sonne of man, appoint thee two wayes, that the sworde of the King of Babel may come: both twaine shall come out of one lande, and chuse a place, and chuse it in the corner of the way of the citie.
»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 Appoint a way, that the sworde may come to Rabbath of the Ammonites, and to Iudah in Ierusalem the strong citie.
Določi pot, da lahko pride meč v Rabo Amóncev in v Juda in zaščiteno [prestolnico] Jeruzalem.
21 And the King of Babel stoode at the parting of the way, at the head of the two wayes, consulting by diuination, and made his arrowes bright: hee consulted with idoles, and looked in the liuer.
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 At his right hand was the diuination for Ierusalem to appoint captaines, to open their mouth in the slaughter, and to lift vp their voyce with shouting, to laye engines of warre against the gates, to cast a mount, and to builde a fortresse.
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 And it shalbe vnto them as a false diuination in their sight for the othes made vnto them: but hee will call to remembrance their iniquitie, to the intent they should be taken.
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 Therefore thus sayeth the Lord God, Because ye haue made your iniquitie to bee remembred, in discouering your rebellion, that in al your workes your sinnes might appeare: because, I say, that ye are come to remembrance, ye shall be taken with the hand.
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 And thou prince of Israel polluted, and wicked, whose day is come, when iniquitie shall haue an ende,
In ti, oskrunjen, zloben Izraelov princ, katerega dan je prišel, ko se krivičnosti naredi konec, ‹
26 Thus saith the Lord God, I will take away the diademe, and take off the crowne: this shalbe no more the same: I wil exalt the humble, and will abase him that is hie.
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 wil ouerturne, ouerturne, ouerturne it, and it shall be no more vntill he come, whose right it is, and I will giue it him.
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 And thou, sonne of man, prophecie, and say, Thus saith the Lord God to the children of Ammon, and to their blasphemie: say thou, I say, The sword, the sword is drawen foorth, and fourbished to the slaughter, to consume, because of the glittering:
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 Whiles they see vanitie vnto thee, and prophecied a lie vnto thee to bring thee vpon the neckes of the wicked that are slaine, whose day is come when their iniquitie shall haue an ende.
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 Shall I cause it to returne into his sheath? I will iudge thee in the place where thou wast created, euen in the land of thine habitation.
Ali mu bom povzročil, da se vrne v svojo nožnico? Sodil te bom na kraju, kjer si bil ustvarjen, v deželi tvojega rojstva.
31 And I wil powre out mine indignation vpon thee, and will blowe against thee in the fire of my wrath, and deliuer thee into the hand of beastly men, and skilfull to destroy.
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 Thou shalt bee in the fire to be deuoured: thy blood shall be in the middes of the lande, and thou shalt be no more remembred: for I the Lord haue spoken it.
Ti boš za gorivo ognju; tvoja kri bo v sredi dežele; ne bo se te več spominjalo, kajti jaz, Gospod, sem to govoril.‹«
