Ezekiel 18
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
Opet mi doðe rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
2 'What mean ye, that ye use this proverb in the land of Israel, saying: The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge?
Šta hoæete vi koji govorite prièu o zemlji Izrailjevoj govoreæi: oci jedoše kiselo grožðe, a sinovima trnu zubi?
3 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, ye shall not have occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel.
Tako ja bio živ, govori Gospod Gospod, neæete više govoriti te prièe u Izrailju.
4 Behold, all souls are Mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is Mine; the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
Gle, sve su duše moje, kako duša oèina tako i duša sinovlja moja je, koja duša zgriješi ona æe poginuti.
5 But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right,
Jer ako je ko pravedan i èini sud i pravdu,
6 and hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neither hath defiled his neighbour's wife, neither hath come near to a woman in her impurity;
Na gorama ne jede i oèiju svojih ne podiže ka gadnijem bogovima doma Izrailjeva, i ne skvrni žene bližnjega svojega i ne ide k ženi odvojenoj radi neèistote,
7 and hath not wronged any, but hath restored his pledge for a debt, hath taken nought by robbery, hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment;
I nikome ne èini nasilja, zalog dužniku svojemu vraæa, ništa ne otima, hljeb svoj daje gladnome i gologa odijeva,
8 he that hath not given forth upon interest, neither hath taken any increase, that hath withdrawn his hand from iniquity, hath executed true justice between man and man,
Ne daje na dobit i ne uzima pridavka, od nepravde usteže ruku svoju, i pravo sudi izmeðu jednoga èovjeka i drugoga,
9 hath walked in My statutes, and hath kept Mine ordinances, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord GOD.
Po uredbama mojim hodi, i drži zakone moje tvoreæi istinu; taj je pravedan, doista æe živjeti, govori Gospod Gospod.
10 If he beget a son that is a robber, a shedder of blood, and that doeth to a brother any of these things,
Ako rodi sina lupeža, koji bi krv proljevao ili bi èinio tako što,
11 whereas he himself had not done any of these things, for he hath even eaten upon the mountains, and defiled his neighbour's wife,
A ne bi èinio svega onoga, nego bi jeo na gorama, i ženu bližnjega svojega skvrnio,
12 hath wronged the poor and needy, hath taken by robbery, hath not restored the pledge, and hath lifted up his eyes to the idols, hath committed abomination,
Siromahu i ubogome nasilje èinio, otimao što, zaloga ne bi vraæao, i ka gadnijem bogovima podizao bi oèi svoje èineæi gad,
13 hath given forth upon interest, and hath taken increase; shall he then live? he shall not live — he hath done all these abominations; he shall surely be put to death, his blood shall be upon him.
Davao bi na dobit, i uzimao pridavak; hoæe li taj živjeti? Neæe živjeti; uèinio je sve te gadove, doista æe poginuti, krv æe njegova na njemu biti.
14 Now, lo, if he beget a son, that seeth all his father's sins, which he hath done, and considereth, and doeth not such like,
Ali gle, ako rodi sina koji bi vidio sve grijehe oca svojega što èini, i uzeo bi na um, te ne bi èinio onako,
15 that hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hath not defiled his neighbour's wife,
Ne bi jeo na gorama, niti bi oèiju svojih podizao ka gadnijem bogovima doma Izrailjeva, žene bližnjega svojega ne bi skvrnio,
16 neither hath wronged any, hath not taken aught to pledge, neither hath taken by robbery, but hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment,
I nikome ne bi èinio nasilja, zaloga ne bi uzimao i ne bi ništa otimao, davao bi hljeb svoj gladnome i gologa bi odijevao,
17 that hath withdrawn his hand from the poor, that hath not received interest nor increase, hath executed Mine ordinances, hath walked in My statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live.
Od siromaha bi ustezao ruku svoju, ne bi uzimao dobiti ni pridavka, zakone bi moje izvršivao i po uredbama mojim hodio; taj neæe poginuti za bezakonje oca svojega, doista æe živjeti.
18 As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, committed robbery on his brother, and did that which is not good among his people, behold, he dieth for his iniquity.
A otac njegov, što je èinio nasilje, otimao od brata svojega i èinio što nije dobro u narodu svom, gle, on æe poginuti za svoje bezakonje.
19 Yet say ye: Why doth not the son bear the iniquity of the father with him? When the son hath done that which is lawful and right, and hath kept all My statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live.
Ali govorite: zašto da ne nosi sin bezakonja oèina? Jer sin èini sud i pravdu, sve uredbe moje drži i izvršuje; doista æe živjeti.
20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die; the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father with him, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son with him; the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
Koja duša zgriješi ona æe umrijeti, sin neæe nositi bezakonja oèina niti æe otac nositi bezakonja sinovljega; na pravedniku æe biti pravda njegova, a na bezbožniku æe biti bezbožnost njegova.
21 But if the wicked turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all My statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
Ako li bi se bezbožnik obratio od svijeh grijeha svojih koje uèini, i držao bi sve uredbe moje i tvorio sud i pravdu, doista æe živjeti, neæe poginuti.
22 None of his transgressions that he hath committed shall be remembered against him; for his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.
Bezakonja njegova što ih je god uèinio neæe mu se više spominjati, u pravdi svojoj koju èini živjeæe.
23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD; and not rather that he should return from his ways, and live?
Eda li je meni milo da pogine bezbožnik? govori Gospod, a ne da se odvrati od putova svojih i bude živ?
24 But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? None of his righteous deeds that he hath done shall be remembered; for his trespass that he trespassed, and for his sin that he hath sinned, for them shall he die.
Ali kad bi se pravednik odvratio od pravde svoje i èinio nepravdu, i radio po svijem gadovima koje èini bezbožnik, hoæe li on živjeti? pravedna djela njegova, što je god èinio, neæe se spomenuti; za bezakonje svoje koje uèini i za grijeh svoj kojim zgriješi poginuæe.
25 Yet ye say: The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel: Is it My way that is not equal? is it not your ways that are unequal?
Još govorite: nije prav put Gospodnji. Èujte, dome Izrailjev, moj li put nije prav? nijesu li vaši putovi nepravi?
26 When the righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall die therefor; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die.
Kad se pravednik odvrati od pravde svoje i èini zlo i umre zato, umrijeæe za zlo svoje koje uèini.
27 Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive.
A kad se bezbožnik odvrati od bezbožnosti svoje koju je èinio, i èini sud i pravdu, on æe saèuvati u životu dušu svoju.
28 Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
Jer uzevši na um vrati se od svijeh bezakonja svojih koja uèini; doista æe živjeti, i neæe poginuti.
29 Yet saith the house of Israel: The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, is it My ways that are not equal? is it not your ways that are unequal?
Ali dom Izrailjev veli: put Gospodnji nije prav. Moji li putovi nijesu pravi? dome Izrailjev, nijesu li vaši putovi nepravi?
30 Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Return ye, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so shall they not be a stumblingblock of iniquity unto you.
Zato, dome Izrailjev, sudiæu vam svakome po putovima njegovijem, govori Gospod; obratite se i proðite se svijeh grijeha svojih, i neæe vam bezakonje biti na spoticanje.
31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, wherein ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Odbacite od sebe sva bezakonja koja èiniste, i naèinite sebi novo srce i nov duh; i zašto da mrete? dome Izrailjev.
32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD; wherefore turn yourselves, and live.
Jer mi nije mila smrt onoga koji mre, govori Gospod Gospod; obratite se dakle i budite živi.
