< Ezekiel 3 >
1 He said to me, “Son of man, eat what you find. Eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”
Poleg tega mi je rekel: »Človeški sin, jej, kar najdeš. Pojej ta zvitek in pojdi, govori Izraelovi hiši.«
2 So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat the scroll.
Tako sem odprl svoja usta in dal mi je, da sem pojedel ta zvitek.
3 He said to me, “Son of man, eat this scroll that I give you and fill your belly and your bowels with it.” Then I ate it. It was as sweet as honey in my mouth.
Rekel mi je: »Človeški sin, stôri svojemu trebuhu, da jé in svojo notranjost napolni s tem zvitkom, ki ti ga dajem.« Potem sem to pojedel in v mojih ustih je bil zaradi sladkosti kakor med.
4 He said to me, “Son of man, go to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them.
Rekel mi je: »Človeški sin, pojdi, stopi k Izraelovi hiši in jim govori z mojimi besedami.
5 For you are not sent to a people of a strange speech and of a hard language, but to the house of Israel—
Kajti nisi poslan k ljudstvu tujega govora in trdega jezika, temveč k Izraelovi hiši,
6 not to many peoples of a strange speech and of a hard language, whose words you can’t understand. Surely, if I sent you to them, they would listen to you.
ne k mnogim ljudstvom tujega govora in trdega jezika, katerih besed ne moreš razumeti. Zagotovo, če bi te poslal k njim, bi ti prisluhnili.
7 But the house of Israel will not listen to you, for they will not listen to me; for all the house of Israel are obstinate and hard-hearted.
Toda Izraelova hiša ti ne bo hotela prisluhniti, kajti nočejo mi prisluhniti, kajti vsa Izraelova hiša je predrzna in trdosrčna.
8 Behold, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your forehead hard against their foreheads.
Glej, tvoj obraz sem otrdil zoper njihove obraze in tvoje čelo zoper njihova čela.
9 I have made your forehead as a diamond, harder than flint. Don’t be afraid of them, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.”
Kakor je diamant trši kakor kremen, [tako] sem naredil tvoje čelo. Ne boj se jih niti ne bodi zaprepaden ob njihovih pogledih, kajti uporna hiša so.«
10 Moreover he said to me, “Son of man, receive in your heart and hear with your ears all my words that I speak to you.
Poleg tega mi je rekel: »Človeški sin, vse moje besede, ki ti jih bom govoril, sprejmi v svoje srce in poslušaj s svojimi ušesi.
11 Go to them of the captivity, to the children of your people, and speak to them, and tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Yahweh says,’ whether they will hear, or whether they will refuse.”
Pojdi, stopi k tistim iz ujetništva, k otrokom svojega ljudstva in jim govori ter jim povej: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog, bodisi bodo poslušali ali bodisi se bodo zadržali.‹«
12 Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great rushing, saying, “Blessed be Yahweh’s glory from his place.”
Potem me je duh vzel gor in za seboj sem zaslišal glas velikega hitenja, rekoč: »Blagoslovljena bodi Gospodova slava iz njegovega kraja.«
13 I heard 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.
Slišal sem tudi šum peruti živih ustvarjenih bitij, ki so se dotikala druga druge in hrup koles nasproti njih in šum velikega hitenja.
14 So the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away; and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; and Yahweh’s hand was strong on me.
Tako me je duh dvignil in me odnesel in šel sem v grenkobi, v vročici svojega duha, toda Gospodova roka je bila močna nad menoj.
15 Then I came to them of the captivity at Tel Aviv who lived by the river Chebar, and to where they lived; and I sat there overwhelmed among them seven days.
Potem sem prišel k tistim iz ujetništva pri Tel Abíbu, ki prebivajo pri reki Kebár in se usedel, kjer so sedeli in osupel ostal tam med njimi sedem dni.
16 At the end of seven days, Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
Pripetilo se je ob koncu sedmih dni, da je k meni prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
17 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel. Therefore hear the word from my mouth, and warn them from me.
»Človeški sin, naredil sem te stražarja Izraelovi hiši, zato poslušaj besedo pri mojih ustih in jim daj svarilo od mene.
18 When I tell the wicked, ‘You will surely die;’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life, that wicked man will die in his iniquity; but I will require his blood at your hand.
Ko rečem zlobnemu: ›Gotovo boš umrl, ‹ pa mu ne daješ svarila niti ne govoriš, da zlobnega posvariš pred njegovo zlobno potjo, da bi rešil njegovo življenje, bo ta isti zlobni človek umrl v svoji krivičnosti, toda njegovo kri bom zahteval iz tvoje roke.
19 Yet if you warn the wicked, and he doesn’t turn from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he will die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul.”
Vendar če posvariš zlobnega, pa se ta ne odvrne od svoje zlobnosti niti od svoje zlobne poti, bo umrl v svoji krivičnosti, toda ti si osvobodil svojo dušo.«
20 “Again, when a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he will die. Because you have not given him warning, he will die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he has done will not be remembered; but I will require his blood at your hand.
Ponovno: »Kadar se pravičen človek odvrne od svoje pravičnosti in zagreši krivičnost in predenj položim kamen spotike, bo umrl; ker mu nisi dal svarila, bo umrl v svojem grehu in njegove pravičnosti, ki jo je storil, se ne bo spominjalo, temveč bom njegovo kri zahteval iz tvoje roke.
21 Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous not sin, and he does not sin, he will surely live, because he took warning; and you have delivered your soul.”
Vendar če posvariš pravičnega človeka, da pravični ne greši in ta ne greši, bo zagotovo živel, ker je posvarjen; tudi ti si osvobodil svojo dušo.«
22 Yahweh’s hand was there on me; and he said to me, “Arise, go out into the plain, and I will talk with you there.”
Tam je bila nad menoj Gospodova roka in rekel mi je: »Vstani, pojdi naprej na ravnino in tam bom govoril s teboj.«
23 Then I arose, and went out into the plain, and behold, Yahweh’s glory stood there, like the glory which I saw by the river Chebar. Then I fell on my face.
Potem sem vstal in odšel naprej na ravnino. Glej, tam je stala Gospodova slava kakor slava, ki sem jo videl pri reki Kebár, in padel sem na svoj obraz.
24 Then the Spirit entered into me and set me on my feet. He spoke with me, and said to me, “Go, shut yourself inside your house.
Potem je vame vstopil duh in me postavil na moja stopala in spregovoril z menoj ter mi rekel: »Pojdi, zapri se znotraj svoje hiše.
25 But you, son of man, behold, they will put ropes on you, and will bind you with them, and you will not go out among them.
Toda ti, oh človeški sin, glej, nate bodo dali vezi in te zvezali z njimi in ne boš šel ven mednje,
26 I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth so that you will be mute and will not be able to correct them, for they are a rebellious house.
jaz pa bom tvoj jezik prilepil k nebu tvojih ust, da boš nem in jim ne boš grajavec, kajti uporna hiša so.
27 But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Yahweh says.’ He who hears, let him hear; and he who refuses, let him refuse; for they are a rebellious house.”
Toda ko jaz spregovorim s teboj, bom odprl tvoja usta in ti jim boš rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Kdor posluša, naj sliši, in kdor se zadrži, naj se zadržuje, kajti uporna hiša so.‹«
