Ezekiel 29
1 In the tenth year, in the tenth month, in the twelfth day of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
V desetem letu, v desetem mesecu, na dvanajsti dan meseca je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
2 'Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt;
»Človeški sin, naravnaj svoj obraz proti faraonu, egiptovskemu kralju in prerokuj zoper njega in zoper ves Egipt.
3 speak, and say: Thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh King of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, that hath said: My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.
Govori in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Glej, jaz sem zoper tebe, faraon, egiptovski kralj, veliki zmaj, ki ležiš v sredi svojih rek, ki praviš: ›Moja reka je moja lastna in naredil sem jo zase.‹
4 And I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales; and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
Toda dal ti bom kavlje v čeljusti in ribam tvojih rek bom povzročil, da se prilepijo na tvoje luskine in izvlekel te bom iz srede tvojih rek in vse ribe tvojih rek se bodo prilepile na tvoje luskine.
5 And I will cast thee into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers; thou shalt fall upon the open field; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered; to the beasts of the earth and to the fowls of the heaven have I given thee for food.
In pustil te bom vreči v divjino, tebe in vse ribe tvojih rek. Padel boš na odprta polja; ne boš zbližan niti ne zbran. Dal sem te za hrano poljskim živalim in perjadi neba.
6 And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
In vsi prebivalci Egipta bodo spoznali, da jaz sem Gospod, ker so bili trstična palica za Izraelovo hišo.‹
7 When they take hold of thee with the hand, thou dost break, and rend all their shoulders; and when they lean upon thee, thou breakest, and makest all their loins to be at a stand.
Kadar so te prijeli za tvojo roko, si se zlomil in raztrgal vso njihovo ramo, in ko so se oprli nate, si se zlomil in storil, da vsa njihova ledja odrevenijo.‹
8 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and will cut off from thee man and beast.
Zato tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Glej, nadte bom privedel meč in iz tebe iztrebil človeka in žival.
9 And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste, and they shall know that I am the LORD; because he hath said: The river is mine, and I have made it.
In egiptovska dežela bo zapuščena in opustošena; in spoznali bodo, da jaz sem Gospod, ker je rekel: ›Reka je moja in jaz sem jo naredil.‹
10 Therefore, behold, I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from Migdol to Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.
Glej, zato sem zoper tebe in zoper tvoje reke in egiptovsko deželo bom naredil popolnoma opustošeno in zapuščeno od Siénskega stolpa celó do meje Etiopije.
11 No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
Skoznjo ne bo šlo nobeno človeško stopalo niti ne bo šlo skozi živalsko stopalo niti štirideset let ne bo naseljena.
12 And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years; and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
In egiptovsko deželo bom naredil zapuščeno v sredi pokrajin, ki so zapuščene in njena mesta, med mesti, ki so opustošena, bodo zapuščena štirideset let in Egipčane bom razkropil med narode in jih razpodil po pokrajinah.‹
13 For thus saith the Lord GOD: At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the peoples whither they were scattered;
Vendar tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Ob koncu štiridesetih let bom zbral Egipčane izmed ljudstev, kamor so bili razkropljeni,
14 and I will turn the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their origin; and they shall be there a lowly kingdom.
in ponovno bom privedel ujetništvo Egipta in povzročil jim bom, da se vrnejo v deželo Patrós, v deželo svojega prebivališča; in tam bodo nizko kraljestvo.
15 It shall be the lowliest of the kingdoms, neither shall it any more lift itself up above the nations; and I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
To bo najnižje izmed kraljestev niti se ne bo več povzdigovalo nad narodi, kajti jaz jih bom zmanjšal, da ne bodo več vladali nad narodi.
16 And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to remembrance, when they turn after them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD.'
In le-to ne bo več zaupanje Izraelove hiše, ki v spomin prinaša njihovo krivičnost, ko bodo gledali za njimi, toda spoznali bodo, da jaz sem Gospod Bog.‹«
17 And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:
Pripetilo se je v sedemindvajsetem letu, v prvem mesecu, na prvi dan meseca, [da] je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
18 'Son of man, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre; every head was made bald, and every shoulder was peeled; yet had he no wages, nor his army, from Tyre, for the service that he had served against it;
»Človeški sin, babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar je svoji vojski storil, da služi sijajno službo zoper Tir. Vsaka glava je bila narejena plešasto in vsaka rama je bila oluščena, vendar ni imel nobenih plačil niti njegova vojska za Tir, za službo, ki jo je opravil zoper njega.
19 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall carry off her abundance, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
Zato tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Glej, egiptovsko deželo bom dal Nebukadnezarju, babilonskemu kralju; in on bo zajel njeno množico in vzel njeno ukradeno blago in vzel njen plen; in to bodo plačila za njegovo vojsko.
20 I have given him the land of Egypt as his hire for which he served, because they wrought for Me, saith the Lord GOD.
Izročil sem mu egiptovsko deželo za njegov trud, s katerim je služil zoper njo, ker so delali zame, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.
21 In that day will I cause a horn to shoot up unto the house of Israel, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.'
›Na tisti dan bom rogu Izraelove hiše povzročil, da vzbrsti in jaz ti bom dal odprtje ust v njihovi sredi, in spoznali bodo, da jaz sem Gospod.‹«
