Ezekiel 3

1 And He said unto me: 'Son of man, eat that which thou findest; eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.'

I reče mi: “Sine čovječji, progutaj što je pred tobom! Pojedi taj svitak, te idi i propovijedaj domu Izraelovu!”

2 So I opened my mouth, and He caused me to eat that roll.

Otvorih usta, a on mi dade da progutam svitak

3 And He said unto me: 'Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I give thee.' Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.

i reče: “Sine čovječji, nahrani trbuh i nasiti utrobu svitkom što ti ga dajem!” I pojedoh ga, i bijaše mi u ustima sladak kao med.

4 And He said unto me: 'Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with My words unto them.

Reče mi: “Sine čovječji, idi domu Izraelovu i prenesi mu moju poruku.

5 For thou art not sent to a people of an unintelligible speech and of a slow tongue, but to the house of Israel;

Ne šaljem te k narodu nepoznata jezika i nerazumljiva govora, već te šaljem domu Izraelovu.

6 not to many peoples of an unintelligible speech and of a slow tongue, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, if I sent thee to them, they would hearken unto thee.

Ne šaljem te k mnogim narodima nepoznata jezika i nerazumljiva govora koje ti ne bi mogao razumjeti. A kad bih te k njima i poslao, oni bi te poslušali.

7 But the house of Israel will not consent to hearken unto thee; for they consent not to hearken unto Me; for all the house of Israel are of a hard forehead and of a stiff heart.

A dom te Izraelov neće poslušati, jer ni mene ne sluša, jer dom je Izraelov tvrde glave i okorjela srca.

8 Behold, I have made thy face hard against their faces, and thy forehead hard against their foreheads.

Evo, zato ću sada otvrdnuti tvoje lice kao što je i njihovo i glavu ću tvoju učiniti tvrdoglavom kao što je njihova.

9 As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead; fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, for they are a rebellious house.'

I ne boj ih se i ne plaši, jer oni su rod odmetnički!”

10 Moreover He said unto me: 'Son of man, all My words that I shall speak unto thee receive in thy heart, and hear with thine ears.

Reče mi: “Sine čovječji, sve riječi što ću ti reći uzmi k srcu i poslušaj ih svojim ušima.

11 And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and tell them: Thus saith the Lord GOD; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.'

I hajde izgnanicima, sinovima svojega naroda, i reci im: Ovako govori Jahve Gospod! - poslušali ili ne poslušali!”

12 Then a spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great rushing: 'Blessed be the glory of the LORD from His place';

Uto me duh podiže i ja za sobom čuh silnu tutnjavu. Slava se Jahvina podigla sa svojega mjesta.

13 also the noise of the wings of the living creatures as they touched one another, and the noise of the wheels beside them, even the noise of a great rushing.

Čuh lepet krila onih bića - udarahu jedno o drugo - i snažnu škripu točkova što se s njima kretahu i zaglušnu jeku jakoga glasa.

14 So a spirit lifted me up, and took me away; and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of the LORD was strong upon me.

Tada me duh prihvati i ponese. I ja iđah ogorčen i gnjevna srca, a ruka me Jahvina čvrsto pritisla.

15 Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel-abib, that dwelt by the river Chebar, and I sat where they sat; and I remained there appalled among them seven days.

Tako stigoh u Tel Abib, k izgnanicima koji življahu na rijeci Kebaru - onamo gdje se bijahu nastanili - te ostadoh među njima sedam dana kao omamljen.

16 And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:

Poslije sedam dana dođe mi opet riječ Jahvina:

17 'Son of man, I have appointed thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; and when thou shalt hear a word at My mouth, thou shalt give them warning from Me.

“Sine čovječji, postavljam te za čuvara doma Izraelova. I ti ćeš riječi iz mojih usta slušati i opominjat ćeš ih u moje ime.

18 When I say unto the wicked: Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood will I require at thy hand.

Kad bezbožniku reknem: 'Umrijet ćeš', a ti ga ne opomeneš i ne odvratiš od zla puta njegova kako bi mu život spasio, on će umrijeti sa svojega bezakonja, ali ću ja od tebe tražiti račun za krv njegovu.

19 Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.

A kad opomeneš bezbožnika, a on se ne odvrati od bezakonja i od zla puta svojega, on će umrijeti zbog svoje krivice, a ti ćeš spasiti svoj život.

20 Again, when a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, I will lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die; because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thy hand.

Isto tako, odvrati li se pravednik od svoje pravednosti i stane činiti nepravdu, postavit ću mu zamku i umrijet će jer ga ti ne opomenu zbog njegova grijeha; umrijet će, i njegova se pravedna djela više neće spominjati, ali ću od tebe tražiti račun za krv njegovu.

21 Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he took warning; and thou hast delivered thy soul.'

Ako li ti pravednika opomeneš da ne griješi, i on zaista prestane griješiti, živjet će jer je prihvatio opomenu, a i ti ćeš spasiti život svoj.”

22 And the hand of the LORD came there upon me; and He said unto me: 'Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there speak with thee.'

Ondje me opet zahvati ruka Jahvina i on mi reče: “Ustani i siđi u dolinu da ondje s tobom govorim!”

23 Then I arose, and went forth into the plain; and, behold, the glory of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.

Ustadoh tada i siđoh u dolinu, i gle: Slava Jahvina stajaše ondje, slična Slavi koju vidjeh na rijeci Kebaru te padoh ničice.

24 Then spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet; and He spoke with me, and said unto me: 'Go, shut thyself within thy house.

Jahvin duh uđe u me, osovi me na noge i reče: “Idi i zatvori se u domu svojemu!

25 But thou, son of man, behold, bands shall be put upon thee, and thou shalt be bound with them, and thou shalt not go out among them;

Na te ću, evo, sine čovječji, staviti užad i svezati te i više nećeš izlaziti.

26 and I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover; for they are a rebellious house.

I jezik ću ti zalijepiti za nepce te ćeš onijemjeti i nećeš ih više karati, jer su rod odmetnički.

27 But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them: Thus saith the Lord GOD; he that heareth, let him hear, and he that forbeareth, let him forbear; for they are a rebellious house.

A kad ti ja progovorim, otvorit ću ti usta i ti ćeš im reći: Ovako govori Jahve Gospod! I tko hoće slušati, neka sluša, a tko neće, neka ne sluša, jer su rod odmetnički.
