Ezekiel 14
1 Then came certain of the elders of Israel unto me, and sat before me.
Potem so prišli k meni nekateri izmed Izraelovih starešin in se usedli pred menoj.
2 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
In k meni je prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
3 Son of man, these men have taken their idols into their heart, and put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face: should I be inquired of at all by them?
»Človeški sin, ti možje so si v srcih postavljali malike in so si pred svoj obraz postavljali kamen spotike svoje krivičnosti; ali naj bi me oni potem sploh spraševali?«
4 Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD: Every man of the house of Israel that taketh his idols into his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I the LORD will answer him therein according to the multitude of his idols;
Zato jim govori in jim povej: »Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Vsak mož iz Izraelove hiše, ki si v svojem srcu postavlja malike in pred svoj obraz polaga kamen spotike svoje krivičnosti in prihaja k preroku; jaz, Gospod, bom odgovoril tistemu, ki prihaja, glede na množico njegovih malikov,
5 that I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols.
da bi Izraelovo hišo lahko ujel v njihovem lastnem srcu, ker so se zaradi svojih malikov vsi odtujili od mene.‹
6 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD: Return ye, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.
Zato reci Izraelovi hiši: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Pokesajte se in odvrnite se od svojih malikov; odvrnite svoje obraze od vseh svojih ogabnosti.‹
7 For every one of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, which separateth himself from me, and taketh his idols into his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet to inquire for himself of me; I the LORD will answer him by myself:
Kajti vsakomur izmed Izraelove hiše, ali izmed tujca, ki začasno biva v Izraelu, ki se ločuje od mene in si v svojem srcu postavlja svoje malike in polaga kamen spotike svoje krivičnosti pred svoj obraz in prihaja k preroku, da bi od njega povprašal glede mene, mu bom jaz, Gospod, sam odgovoril.
8 and I will set my face against that man, and will make him an astonishment, for a sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
Svoj obraz bom naravnal zoper tega moža in naredil ga bom za znamenje in pregovor in odrezal ga bom iz srede svojega ljudstva; in spoznali boste, da jaz sem Gospod.
9 And if the prophet be deceived and speaketh a word, I the LORD have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
Če pa je prerok zaveden, ko je govoril besedo, sem jaz, Gospod, zavedel tega preroka in jaz bom iztegnil svojo roko nanj in ga uničim iz srede svojega ljudstva Izraela.
10 And they shall bear their iniquity: the iniquity of the prophet shall be even as the iniquity of him that seeketh [unto him];
Nosila bosta kazen svoje krivičnosti. Kazen preroka bo celo kakor kazen tistega, ki poizveduje k njemu;
11 that the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, neither defile themselves any more with all their transgressions; but that they may be my people, and I may be their God, saith the Lord GOD.
da Izraelova hiša ne bo več zašla od mene niti ne bo več oskrunjena z vsemi svojimi prestopki; temveč da bodo lahko moje ljudstvo in bom jaz lahko njihov Bog, govori Gospod Bog.‹«
12 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Gospodova beseda je prišla ponovno k meni, rekoč:
13 Son of man, when a land sinneth against me by committing a trespass, and I stretch out mine hand upon it, and break the staff of the bread thereof, and send famine upon it, and cut off from it man and beast;
»Človeški sin, kadar dežela greši zoper mene z mučnimi prekršitvami, takrat bom nadnjo iztegnil svojo roko in zlomil bom njeno oporo kruha in nadnjo bom poslal lakoto in iz nje bom iztrebil človeka in žival.
14 though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD.
Čeprav bi bili v njej ti trije možje: Noe, Daniel in Job, bi s svojo pravičnostjo rešili zgolj svoje lastne duše, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.
15 If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts;
›Če povzročim ogabnim živalim, da gredo skozi deželo, jo oplenijo tako, da je ta zapuščena, da zaradi živali noben človek ne bo mogel iti skoznjo;
16 though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
čeprav bi bili ti trije možje v njej, kakor jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, ›ne bodo osvobodili niti sinov niti hčera; samo oni sami bodo osvobojeni, toda dežela bo zapuščena.
17 Or if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land; so that I cut off from it man and beast;
Ali če privedem meč nad to deželo in rečem: ›Meč, pojdi skozi to deželo; ‹ tako, da iz nje iztrebim ljudi in živali;
18 though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD; they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only shall be delivered themselves.
čeprav bi bili ti trije možje v njej, kakor jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, ›ne bi osvobodili niti sinov niti hčera; samo oni sami bi bili osvobojeni.
19 Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast:
Ali če pošljem v to deželo kužno bolezen in če nanjo v krvi izlijem svojo razjarjenost, da iztrebim iz nje človeka in žival;
20 though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall but deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
čeprav bi bili v njej Noe, Daniel in Job, kakor jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, ›ne bi osvobodili niti sinov niti hčera, temveč bodo po svoji pravičnosti osvobodili zgolj svoje lastne duše.‹
21 For thus saith the Lord GOD: How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beasts, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast?
Kajti tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Koliko bolj, ko pošljem svoje štiri boleče sodbe nad Jeruzalem: meč, lakoto in ogabno zver in kužno bolezen, da iztrebim iz nje ljudi in živali?
22 Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be carried forth, both sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it.
In vendar, glejte, bo tam ostal ostanek, ki bo izpeljan, tako sinov kakor hčera. Glejte, prišli bodo k vam in videli boste njihovo pot in njihova dejanja in potolaženi boste glede zla, ki sem ga privedel nad Jeruzalem, celó glede vsega, kar sem privedel nadenj.
23 And they shall comfort you, when ye see their way and their doings: and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith the Lord GOD.
In potolažili vas bodo, ko boste videli njihove poti in njihova dejanja, in spoznali boste, da nisem brez vzroka storil vsega, kar sem storil v njem, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.‹«
