Ezekiel 8

1 On the fifth day of the sixth month [of that year], almost six years after we Israeli people had been (exiled/forced to go to Babylon), I was sitting in my house. The elders of Judah were sitting in front of me. Suddenly the power [MTY] of Yahweh the Lord came on me.

Pripetilo se je v šestem letu, v šestem mesecu, na peti dan meseca, ko sem sedèl v svoji hiši in so starešine Juda sedeli pred menoj, da je tam name padla roka Gospoda Boga.

2 [in a vision] I saw someone who resembled a man. Below his waist, [his body] was like fire, and above his waist [his body] was glowing like very hot metal.

Potem sem pogledal in glej, podoba kakor videz ognja. Od videza njenih ledij, celó navzdol, ogenj; in od njenih ledij, celó navzgor, kakor videz sijaja, kot barva jantarja.

3 He reached out what seemed to be a hand and grabbed me by the hair of my head. The Spirit lifted me up high above the earth, and in visions God took me [from Babylon] to Jerusalem. He took me [to the temple], to the north gate, to the place where there was an idol that caused Yahweh to be very disgusted and furious.

Iztegnil je obliko roke in me prijel za koder moje glave, in duh me je dvignil med zemljo in nebo in me v Božjih videnjih privedel k Jeruzalemu, k durim notranjih velikih vrat, ki gledajo proti severu, kjer je bil sedež podobe ljubosumnosti, ki izziva k ljubosumnosti.

4 And there in front of me was the brilliant light that indicated the presence of the God whom the Israeli [people previously worshiped. It was] like the vision that I had seen alongside the Kebar River/Canal.

Glej, tam je bila slava Izraelovega Boga, glede na videnje, ki sem ga videl na ravnini.

5 Yahweh said to me, “You human, look toward the north!” So I looked, and I saw in the entrance of the gate near the altar that idol that caused Yahweh to be disgusted and furious.

Potem mi je rekel: »Človeški sin, povzdigni sedaj svoje oči proti severu.« Tako sem povzdignil svoje oči proti severu in glej proti severu, pri velikih vratih oltarja, ta podoba ljubosumnosti na vhodu.

6 He said to me, “You human, do you see what those Israeli people [MTY] are doing? They are doing detestable things here, things that will cause me to abandon my temple. But you will see things that are even more detestable.”

Nadalje mi je rekel: »Človeški sin, ali vidiš, kaj počno? Celó velike ogabnosti, ki jih Izraelova hiša grešno počenja tukaj, da bi jaz moral oditi daleč proč od svojega svetišča? Toda ponovno se obrni in videl boš večje ogabnosti.«

7 Then he brought me to the entrance of the courtyard. I looked and saw a hole in the wall.

Privedel me je k dvornim vratom in ko sem pogledal, glej, luknja v zidu.

8 He said to me, “You human, dig through the wall here.” So I dug through the wall, and I saw a doorway inside.

Potem mi je rekel: »Človeški sin, koplji sedaj v steno.« In ko sem kopál v steno, sem zagledal vrata.

9 He said to me, “Go in and see the wicked and detestable things that they are doing there!”

In rekel mi je: »Vstopi in poglej zlobne ogabnosti, ki jih tukaj počno.«

10 So I went in through the doorway and looked, and I saw, all over the [of a big room, drawings of] all kinds of creatures that scurry across the ground and [other] detestable animals, and drawings of all the idols that the people of [were worshiping].

Tako sem vstopil in videl; in glej, vsakršne oblike plazečih stvari in gnusnih zveri in vseh malikov Izraelove hiše, upodobljenih po steni naokoli.

11 In front of them stood 70 elders of Israel. Jaazaniah, the son of Shaphan, was standing among them. Each of them was holding a pan in which incense was burning, and fragrant smoke of the burning incense was rising up.

In tam je pred njimi stalo sedemdeset mož, izmed starcev Izraelove hiše in v njihovi sredi je stal Jaazanjá, sin Šafána. Z vsakim moškim je bila v njegovi roki njegova kadilnica; in gost oblak kadila se je dvigal.

12 Yahweh said to me, “You human, look at [RHQ] what the Israeli elders are doing here in the darkness, each of them standing in front of the shrine of his own idol! They are saying, ‘Yahweh does not see us; Yahweh has deserted this country.’”

Potem mi je rekel: »Človeški sin, ali si videl kaj starci Izraelove hiše počno v temi, vsak mož v sobah svojih podob? Kajti pravijo: › Gospod nas ne vidi; Gospod je zapustil zemljo.‹«

13 He also said, “But you will see things that are even more detestable!”

Prav tako mi je rekel: »Ponovno se obrni in videl boš večje ogabnosti, ki jih počno.«

14 Then he took me to the entrance at the north gate of the temple. I saw women sitting there, mourning for [the death of the god of the people of Babylonia], Tammuz.

Potem me je privedel k durim velikih vrat Gospodove hiše, ki so bila proti severu; in glej, tam so sedele ženske, jokajoče za Tamúzom.

15 He said to me, “You human, you see this [RHQ], but you will see things that are more detestable than this!”

Potem mi je rekel: »Ali si videl to, oh človeški sin? Ponovno se obrni in videl boš večje ogabnosti, kot so te.«

16 Then he took me into the courtyard outside the temple. There at the entrance of the temple, between the porch and the altar, were about 25 men. Their backs were toward the temple and their faces were toward the east, and they were bowing down to [worship] the sun [as it rose] in the east.

In privedel me je na notranji dvor Gospodove hiše in glej, pri vratih Gospodovega templja, med preddverjem in oltarjem, je bilo okoli petindvajset mož, s svojimi hrbti proti Gospodovemu templju in svojimi obrazi proti vzhodu; in oboževali so sonce proti vzhodu.

17 He said to me, “You human, you see [RHQ] what they are doing. [Do you think that] it is not important that these men of Judah are doing these detestable things here? [But they are doing other terrible things]. They are acting violently throughout their country, and continually causing me to be angry. Look at them! They are insulting me by their actions [IDM]!

Potem mi je rekel: »Si videl to, oh človeški sin? Ali je lahka stvar za Judovo hišo, da zagrešijo ogabnosti, ki jih tukaj zagrešujejo? Kajti deželo so napolnili z nasiljem in vrnili so se, da me izzivajo k jezi. In glej, vejico dajejo pod svoj nos.

18 So I will show them that I am very angry. I will not pity them or act mercifully toward them. And even if they shout to me [to help them], I will not pay attention to them.”

Zatorej bom tudi jaz postopal v razjarjenosti. Moje oko ne bo prizanašalo niti ne bom imel usmiljenja, in četudi jokajo z močnim glasom v moja ušesa, jih vendar ne bom slišal.«
