Jezekilj 1
1 Godine tridesete, mjeseca èetvrtoga, petoga dana, kad bijah meðu robljem na rijeci Hevaru, otvoriše se nebesa, i vidjeh utvare Božje.
Now it came to pass in the thirties year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, that I was in the midst of the captivity by the river of Chobar; and the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
2 Petoga dana toga mjeseca, pete godine otkako se zarobi car Joahin,
On the fifth day of the month; this was the fifth year of the captivity of king Joakim.
3 Doðe rijeè Gospodnja Jezekilju sinu Vuzijevu, svešteniku, u zemlji Haldejskoj na rijeci Hevaru, i ondje doðe ruka Gospodnja nada nj.
And the word of the Lord came to Jezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river of Chobar; and the hand of the Lord was upon me.
4 I vidjeh, i gle, silan vjetar dolažaše od sjevera, i velik oblak i oganj koji se razgorijevaše, i oko njega svjetlost, a isred ognja kao jaka svjetlost;
And I looked, and, behold, a sweeping wind came from the north, and a great cloud on it, and [there was] brightness round about it, and gleaming fire, and in the midst of it as it were the appearance of amber in the midst of the fire, and brightness in it.
5 Isred njega još kao èetiri životinje, koje na oèi bijahu nalik na èovjeka;
And in the midst as it were the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; the likeness of a man was upon them.
6 I u svake bijahu èetiri lica, i èetiri krila u svake;
And each one [had] four faces, and each one [had] four wings.
7 I noge im bijahu prave, a u stopalu bijahu im noge kao u teleta; i sijevahu kao uglaðena mjed.
And their legs were straight; and their feet were winged, and [there were] sparks, like gleaming brass, and their wings were light.
8 I ruke im bijahu èovjeèije pod krilima nad èetiri strane, i lica im i krila bijahu na èetiri strane.
And the hand of a man was under their wings on their four sides.
9 Sastavljena im bijahu krila jedno s drugim; i ne okretahu se iduæi, nego svaka iðaše naprema se.
And the faces of them four turned not when they went; they went everyone straight forward.
10 I lice bijaše u sve èetiri lice èovjeèije i lice lavovo s desne strane, a s lijeve strane lice volujsko i lice orlovo u sve èetiri.
And the likeness of their faces was the face of a man, and the face of a lion on the right of the four; and the face of a calf on the left of the four; and the face of an eagle to the four.
11 I lica im i krila bijahu razdijeljena ozgo; u svake se dva krila sastavljahu jedno s drugim, a dva pokrivahu im tijelo.
And the four had their wings spread out above; each one [had] two joined to one another, and two covered their bodies.
12 I svaka iðaše pravo naprema se; iðahu kuda duh iðaše, i ne okretahu se iduæi.
And each one went straight forward: wherever the spirit was going they went, and turned not back.
13 I na oèi bijahu te životinje kao živo ugljevlje, gorahu na oèi kao svijeæe; taj oganj prolažaše izmeðu životinja i svijetljaše se, i iz ognja izlažaše munja.
And in the midst of the living creatures [there was] an appearance as of burning coals of fire, as an appearance of lamps turning among the living creatures; and the brightness of fire, and out of the fire came forth lightning.
14 I životinje trèahu i vraæahu se kao munja.
15 I kad gledah životinje, gle, toèak jedan bijaše na zemlji uza svaku životinju prema èetiri lica njihova.
And I looked, and, behold, the four [had each] one wheel on the ground near the living creatures.
16 Oblièjem i napravom bijahu toèkovi kao boje hrisolitove, i sva èetiri bijahu jednaka, i oblièjem i napravom bijahu kao da je jedan toèak u drugom.
And the appearance of the wheels was as the appearance of beryl: and the four had one likeness: and their work was as it were a wheel in a wheel.
17 Kad iðahu, iðahu sva èetiri svaki na svoju stranu, i iduæi ne skretahu.
They went on their four sides: they turned not as they went;
18 I naplaci im bijahu visoki strahota; i bijahu naplaci puni oèiju unaokolo u sva èetiri.
neither did their backs [turn]: and they were high: and I saw them, and the backs of them four were full of eyes round about.
19 I kad iðahu životinje, iðahu i toèkovi uz njih; i kad se životinje podizahu od zemlje, podizahu se i toèkovi.
And when the living creatures went, the wheels went by them: and when the living creatures lifted themselves off the earth, the wheels were lifted off.
20 Kuda duh iðaše, onamo iðahu, i podizahu se toèkovi prema njima, jer duh životinjski bješe u toèkovima.
Wherever the cloud happened to be, there was the spirit ready to go: the wheels went and were lifted up with them; because the spirit of life was in the wheels.
21 Kad one iðahu, iðahu i oni; i kad one stajahu, stajahu i oni; i kad se one podizahu od zemlje, podizahu se i toèkovi prema njima, jer duh životinjski bješe u toèkovima.
When those went, [the wheels] went; and when those stood, [the wheels] stood; and when those lifted themselves off the earth, they were lifted off with them: for the spirit of life was in the wheels.
22 A nad glavama životinjama bijaše kao nebo, po viðenju kao kristal, strašno, razastrto ozgo nad glavama njihovijem.
And the likeness over the heads of the living creatures was as a firmament, as the appearance of crystal, spread out over their wings above.
23 A pod tijem nebom bijahu im krila pružena, jedno prema drugom, a dva krila svakoj pokrivahu tijelo.
And their wings were spread out under the firmament, reaching one to the other; two [wings] to each, covering their bodies.
24 I èujah huku krila njihovijeh kad iðahu kao da bješe huka velike vode, kao glas svemoguæega i kao graja u okolu; i kad stajahu, spuštahu krila.
And I heard the sound of their wings when they went, as the sound of much water: and when they stood, their wings were let down.
25 I kad stavši spuštahu krila, èujaše se glas ozgo iz neba, koje bijaše nad glavama njihovijem.
And behold! a voice from above the firmament
26 I ozgo na onom nebu što im bijaše nad glavama, bijaše kao prijesto, po viðenju kao kamen safir, i na prijestolu bijaše po oblièju kao èovjek.
that was over their head, [there was] as the appearance of a sapphire stone, [and] the likeness of a throne upon it: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as an appearance of a man above.
27 I vidjeh kao jaku svjetlost, i u njoj unutra kao oganj naokolo, od bedara gore, a od bedara dolje vidjeh kao oganj i svjetlost oko njega.
And I saw as it were the resemblance of amber from the appearance of the loins and upwards, and from the appearance of the loins and under I saw an appearance of fire, and the brightness thereof round about.
28 Kao duga u oblaku kad je kiša, taka na oèi bijaše svjetlost unaokolo. To bijaše viðenje slave Božje na oèima; i kad vidjeh, padoh na lice svoje, i èuh glas nekoga koji govoraše.
As the appearance of the bow when it is in the cloud in days of rain, so was the form of brightness round about.
