Ezekiel 21
1 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
In k meni je prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
2 “Son of man, set your face towards Jerusalem, and proclaim towards the sanctuaries, and prophesy against Eretz-Israel.
»Človeški sin, naravnaj svoj obraz proti Jeruzalemu in spusti svojo besedo proti svetim krajem in prerokuj zoper Izraelovo deželo
3 Tell Eretz-Israel, ‘The LORD says: “Behold, I am against you, and will draw my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.
in reci Izraelovi deželi: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Glej, jaz sem zoper tebe in izvlekel bom svoj meč iz nožnice in iz tebe bom iztrebil pravičnega in zlobnega.
4 Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore my sword will go out of its sheath against all flesh from the south to the north.
Ker bom iz tebe iztrebil pravičnega in zlobnega, bo zato moj meč šel iz nožnice zoper vse meso od juga do severa,
5 All flesh will know that I, the LORD, have drawn my sword out of its sheath. It will not return any more.”’
da bo lahko vse meso vedelo, da sem jaz, Gospod, izvlekel svoj meč iz nožnice. Ta se ne bo več vrnil.
6 “Therefore sigh, you son of man. You shall sigh before their eyes with a broken heart and with bitterness.
Zdihuj torej, ti, človeški sin, s trganjem svojih ledij; in z grenkim vzdihom pred njihovimi očmi.
7 It shall be, when they ask you, ‘Why do you sigh?’ that you shall say, ‘Because of the news, for it comes! Every heart will melt, all hands will be feeble, every spirit will faint, and all knees will be weak as water. Behold, it comes, and it shall be done, says the Lord GOD.’”
In zgodilo se bo, ko ti bodo rekli: ›Zakaj vzdihuješ?‹ da boš odgovoril: ›Zaradi novic, ker le-te prihajajo.‹ In vsako srce se bo stopilo in vse roke bodo slabotne in vsak duh bo medlel in vsa kolena bodo šibka kakor voda. Glej, to prihaja in se bo zgodilo, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.«
8 The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
Ponovno je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
9 “Son of man, prophesy, and say, ‘The LORD says: “A sword! A sword! It is sharpened, and also polished.
»Človeški sin, prerokuj in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Reci: ›Meč, meč je nabrušen in tudi zglajen.
10 It is sharpened that it may make a slaughter. It is polished that it may be as lightning. Should we then make mirth? The rod of my son condemns every tree.
Nabrušen je, da naredi boleč pokol; zglajen je, da se lahko lesketa. Naj bi se mi potem razveseljevali? Ta zaničuje palico mojega sina kakor vsako drevo.
11 It is given to be polished, that it may be handled. The sword is sharpened. Yes, it is polished to give it into the hand of the killer.”’
In on ga je dal zgladiti, da bi lahko z njim rokoval. Ta meč je nabrušen in zglajen, da ga da v roko ubijalca.
12 Cry and wail, son of man; for it is on my people. It is on all the princes of Israel. They are delivered over to the sword with my people. Therefore beat your thigh.
Jokaj in tuli, človeški sin, kajti ta bo nad mojim ljudstvom, ta bo nad Izraelovimi princi. Strahote zaradi meča bodo nad mojim ljudstvom. Udari torej na svoje stegno.
13 “For there is a trial. What if even the rod that condemns will be no more?” says the Lord GOD.
Ker je to preizkušnja in kaj če meč zaničuje celo palico? To ne bo več, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.
14 “You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and strike your hands together. Let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the fatally wounded. It is the sword of the great one who is fatally wounded, which enters into their rooms.
›Ti torej, človeški sin, prerokuj in zaploskaj s svojima rokama in naj bo meč tretjič podvojen, meč umorjenih. To je meč velikih ljudi, ki so umorjeni, ki vstopa v njihove skrivne sobe.
15 I have set the threatening sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied. Ah! It is made as lightning. It is pointed for slaughter.
Konico meča sem naravnal zoper vsa njihova velika vrata, da bo njihovo srce lahko slabelo in [bodo] njihovi propadi pomnoženi. Ah! Narejen je [da se] lesketa, zavit je za pokol.
16 Gather yourselves together. Go to the right. Set yourselves in array. Go to the left, wherever your face is set.
Pojdi eno pot ali drugo, ali na desno ali na levo, kamor je naravnan tvoj obraz.
17 I will also strike my hands together, and I will cause my wrath to rest. I, the LORD, have spoken it.”
Tudi jaz bom plosknil s svojima rokama in bom umiril svojo razjarjenost. Jaz, Gospod, sem to govoril.‹«
18 The LORD’s word came to me again, saying,
Ponovno je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
19 “Also, you son of man, appoint two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come. They both will come out of one land, and mark out a place. Mark it out at the head of the way to the city.
»Tudi ti, človeški sin, si določi dve poti, da bo lahko prišel meč babilonskega kralja. Obe bosta izšli iz ene dežele in izberi kraj, izberi ga ob začetku poti v mesto.
20 You shall appoint a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem the fortified.
Določi pot, da lahko pride meč v Rabo Amóncev in v Juda in zaščiteno [prestolnico] Jeruzalem.
21 For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination. He shook the arrows back and forth. He consulted the teraphim. He looked in the liver.
Kajti babilonski kralj je stal pri razpotju poti, ob začetku dveh poti, da uporabi vedeževanje. Svoje puščice je posvetlil, posvetoval se je z družinskimi maliki, gledal je v jetra.
22 In his right hand was the lot for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, and to build forts.
Pri njegovi desni roki je bilo vedeževanje za [prestolnico] Jeruzalem, da določi častnike, da odpre usta v pokol, da povzdigne glas s kričanjem, da določi oblegovalne ovne proti velikim vratom, da nasuje nasip in da zgradi utrdbo.
23 It will be to them as a false divination in their sight, who have sworn oaths to them; but he brings iniquity to memory, that they may be taken.
In to jim bo kakor napačno vedeževanje v njihovem pogledu, tistim, ki so prisegli prisege, toda v spomin bo priklical krivičnost, da bodo lahko zajeti.‹
24 “Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have caused your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doings your sins appear; because you have come to memory, you will be taken with the hand.
Zato tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Ker ste storili, da se bo spominjalo vaše krivičnosti v tem, da so vaši prestopki odkriti, tako da se pri vseh vaših dejanjih pojavijo vaši grehi; ker jaz pravim, da ste prišli v spomin, boste zajeti z roko.
25 “‘You, deadly wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day has come, in the time of the iniquity of the end,
In ti, oskrunjen, zloben Izraelov princ, katerega dan je prišel, ko se krivičnosti naredi konec, ‹
26 the Lord GOD says: “Remove the turban, and take off the crown. This will not be as it was. Exalt that which is low, and humble that which is high.
tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Odstrani diadem in snemi krono. To ne bo [več] isto. Povišaj tistega, ki je nizek in ponižaj tistega, ki je visok.
27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn it. This also will be no more, until he comes whose right it is; and I will give it.”’
Jaz bom to preobrnil, preobrnil, preobrnil in tega ne bo nič več, dokler ne pride tisti, katerega pravica je to in njemu jo bom izročil.‹
28 “You, son of man, prophesy and say, ‘The Lord GOD says this concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their reproach: “A sword! A sword is drawn! It is polished for the slaughter, to cause it to devour, that it may be as lightning;
Ti pa, človeški sin, prerokuj in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog glede Amóncev in glede njihove graje; celo reci: ›Meč, meč je izvlečen. Za pokol je zglajen, da použiva zaradi lesketanja.
29 while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies to you, to lay you on the necks of the wicked who are deadly wounded, whose day has come in the time of the iniquity of the end.
Medtem ko zate vidijo ničnost, medtem ko ti vedežujejo laž, da te privedejo nad vratove tistih, ki so umorjeni izmed zlobnih, katerih dan je prišel, ko bo njihova krivičnost končana.
30 Cause it to return into its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your birth, I will judge you.
Ali mu bom povzročil, da se vrne v svojo nožnico? Sodil te bom na kraju, kjer si bil ustvarjen, v deželi tvojega rojstva.
31 I will pour out my indignation on you. I will blow on you with the fire of my wrath. I will deliver you into the hand of brutish men, skilful to destroy.
In nate bom izlil svoje ogorčenje in zoper tebe bom pihal v ognju svojega besa in te izročil v roko brutalnežev in veščih, da uničujejo.
32 You will be for fuel to the fire. Your blood will be in the middle of the land. You will be remembered no more; for I, the LORD, have spoken it.”’”
Ti boš za gorivo ognju; tvoja kri bo v sredi dežele; ne bo se te več spominjalo, kajti jaz, Gospod, sem to govoril.‹«
