Ezekiel 17
1 Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
K meni je prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
2 “You human, tell this story/parable [DOU] to the people [MTY] of Israel.
»Človeški sin, zastavi uganko in Izraelovi hiši spregovori prispodobo
3 [Say to them, ] ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: A huge eagle that had strong wings and long beautiful feathers of many colors flew to Lebanon. It grasped the top of a cedar [tree]
in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Velik orel, z velikimi perutmi, z dolgimi krili, polnimi peres, ki ima različne barve, je prišel k Libanonu in vzel najvišjo cedrovo mladiko.
4 and broke it off. Then the eagle carried it away to [Babylonia], a country that had many merchants/businessmen, and planted it in one of the cities there.
Odstrigel je vrh njenih mladih vej in ga prenesel v deželo preprodajanja; postavil ga je v mestu trgovcev.
5 Then that eagle took a seedling from [your] country and planted it in a fertile field. He planted it like people plant a willow tree, alongside [a stream that had] plenty of water.
Prav tako je vzel od semena dežele in ga zasadil na rodovitno polje. Namestil ga je ob velikih vodah in ga postavil kakor drevo vrbe.
6 It grew and became a low grapevine that spread [along the ground]. Its branches turned up towards the eagle, but its roots grew down into the ground. So it became a [good] vine and produced [lots of] branches and leaves.
To je raslo in postalo razraščajoča se trta nizke rasti, čigar mladike so se obrnile proti njemu in njene korenine so bile pod njim. Tako je postala trta in obrodila mladike in poganjala vejice.
7 But there was another huge eagle that had strong wings and beautiful feathers. And [some of] the roots of the vine grew toward that eagle, and its branches [also] turned toward it, hoping that the eagle would bring more water to it.
Tam je bil tudi drug velik orel, z velikimi perutmi in mnogimi peresi. In glej, ta trta je svoje korenine upognila proti njemu in svoje mladike poganjala proti njemu, da bi jo ta lahko zalival pri brazdah njenega nasada.
8 [That happened in spite of the fact that] the vine had [already] been planted in good soil, where there was plenty of water, with the result that it had produced branches and produced grapes and had become a very healthy/productive vine.’
Zasajena je bila v dobri zemlji, ob velikih vodah, da bi lahko pognala mladike in da bi lahko obrodila sad, da bi bila lahko čedna trta.‹
9 Then [after you have told that to the people, say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: That vine] will certainly not [RHQ] remain healthy/productive. It will be [RHQ] pulled up by its roots by the eagle [that planted it], and all its fruit will be stripped off and its leaves will wither. And it will not need someone with strong arms or many people to pull it out by its roots.
Reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Ali bo ta uspevala? Ali ji ne bo izruval njenih korenin in odrezal njen sad, da ovene? Ovenela bo pri vseh listih njenega izvira, celo brez velike moči ali mnogih ljudstev, da bi jo izruvali pri njenih koreninah.
10 Even if that vine is transplanted, it certainly will not continue to grow [RHQ]. When the hot wind from the east blows against it, it will completely wither, there where it was planted! [RHQ]’”
Da, glej, ko je vsajena, ali bo uspevala? Ali ne bo popolnoma ovenela, ko se je dotakne vzhodnik? Ovenela bo na brazdah, kjer je zrasla.‹«
11 Then Yahweh gave this message to me:
Poleg tega je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
12 “Ask these rebellious [Israeli] people, ‘Do you know what this parable/story means?’ Tell them that it signifies that the King of Babylon went to Jerusalem [with his army] and captured the King of Judah and his officials, and took them back to Babylon.
»Reci torej uporni hiši: ›Mar ne veste kaj pomenijo te stvari?‹ Povej jim: ›Glejte, babilonski kralj je prišel v [prestolnico] Jeruzalem in zajel njenega kralja in njene prince in jih s seboj odvedel v Babilon
13 Then he took one of the king’s close relatives [and appointed him to be the king], and made an agreement with him, forcing him to solemnly promise [to remain loyal]. The King of Babylon also took to Babylon the other important citizens of Judah,
in zajel od kraljevega semena in z njim sklenil zavezo in od njega vzel prisego. Prav tako je zajel mogočneže dežele,
14 in order that the kingdom of Judah would not be able to become powerful again. The King of Babylon intended that the kingdom [of Judah] would not continue to exist if the people did not obey that agreement [that he made with the King of Babylon].
da bi bilo kraljestvo lahko ponižano, da se ne bi povzdigovalo, temveč da bi z ohranjanjem njegove zaveze lahko obstalo.
15 But the King of Judah rebelled against the King of Babylon by sending officials to Egypt to request from them horses and a large army [to fight against the army of Babylonia]. But the King of Judah will certainly not [RHQ] be sucessful. Rulers who [rebel like that and] and refuse to obey solemn agreements will never [RHQ] escape.
Toda ta se je uprl zoper njega s pošiljanjem svojih predstavnikov v Egipt, da bi mu lahko dali konje in veliko ljudstva. Ali bo uspel? Ali bo pobegnil ta, ki dela takšne stvari? Mar bo prelomil zavezo in bo osvobojen?
16 [I], Yahweh the Lord, declare that [as surely] as I am alive, the King of Judah will die in Babylon, in the city where the King of Babylon appointed him to be the King [MTY] [of Judah]. He will die because he despised the solemn agreement and refused to do what he promised to do.
Kakor jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, ›zagotovo bo na kraju, kjer prebiva kralj, ki ga je postavil [za] kralja, čigar prisego je preziral in čigar zavezo je prelomil, celó pri njem bo umrl v sredi Babilona.
17 The King of Egypt with all his very huge army [DOU] will not [be able to] help the King of Judah: [The soldiers from Babylonia] will build ramps up against the walls of Jerusalem and set up devices to batter the walls. They will [enter Jerusalem and] kill many of its people.
Niti ne bo faraon s svojo mogočno vojsko in svojim velikim spremstvom delal zanj v vojni, s postavljanjem okopov in gradnjo trdnjav, da iztrebi mnogo oseb,
18 The King of Judah despised the solemn agreement by disregarding the treaty. Although he had solemnly promised to be under the control of the King of Babylon, [he sent officials to request help from Egypt]. Therefore he will not escape being punished [by the King of Babylon].
ker je preziral prisego s prelamljanjem zaveze, ko je, glej, dal svojo roko in [vendar] storil vse te stvari; ne bo pobegnil.‹
19 Therefore this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: 'Just as surely as I am alive, I will cause the King of Judah to be punished [IDM] for ignoring the solemn agreement that he made [with the King of Babylon] and then refusing to obey it.
Zato tako govori Gospod Bog: › Kakor jaz živim, zagotovo bo meni dano prisego, ki jo je preziral in mojo zavezo, ki jo je prelomil, celo to bom poplačal na njegovi lastni glavi.
20 [It will be as though] I will spread a net to capture him, and he will be caught in it. He will [be captured and] taken to Babylon and punished because he rebelled against me.
Svojo mrežo bom razširil nad njim in ujet bo v mojo zanko in privedel ga bom v Babilon in tam se bom z njim pravdal zaradi njegovega prekrška, ki ga je prekršil zoper mene.
21 Most [HYP] of his soldiers who try to escape will be killed by [their enemies’] swords, and those who survive will be scattered in all directions. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'”
Vsi njegovi ubežniki, z vsemi njegovimi četami, bodo padli pod mečem, tisti pa, ki preostanejo, bodo razkropljeni proti vsem vetrovom. In vedeli boste, da sem jaz, Gospod, to govoril.‹
22 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[It will be as though] I will take a shoot from the top of a very tall cedar [tree] and plant it [DOU] in another place. I will plant it on a very high [DOU] mountain.
Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Prav tako bom vzel od najvišje mladike na visoki cedri in jo bom posadil; od vrha njenih mladih vejic bom odstrigel eno nežno in jo zasadil na visoki in eminentni gori.
23 [It will be as though] I will plant it on a mountain in Israel, and it will grow and become a beautiful cedar [tree]. Many [HYP] kinds of birds will make their nests in the tree, and they will have shade in its branches.
Na gori Izraelove višine jo bom zasadil in pognala bo veje in obrodila sad in postane čedna cedra. Pod njo bo prebivala vsa perjad od vsakega krila; v senci njenih mladik bodo prebivale.
24 And [it will be as though] all the trees in the field will know that I, Yahweh, get rid of tall trees and make little ones grow. I cause [big] green trees to wither, and I cause dry trees to become green. I, Yahweh have said this, and I will [certainly] do what I have said that I will do.”
Vsa drevesa polja bodo vedela, da sem jaz, Gospod, ponižal visoko drevo, povišal nizko drevo, posušil zeleno drevo in suhemu drevesu storil, da cveti. Jaz, Gospod, sem govoril in sem to storil.‹«
