Jezekilj 1
1 Godine tridesete, mjeseca èetvrtoga, petoga dana, kad bijah meðu robljem na rijeci Hevaru, otvoriše se nebesa, i vidjeh utvare Božje.
Now in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was amongst the captives by the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
2 Petoga dana toga mjeseca, pete godine otkako se zarobi car Joahin,
In the fifth of the month, which was the fifth year of King Jehoiachin’s captivity,
3 Doðe rijeè Gospodnja Jezekilju sinu Vuzijevu, svešteniku, u zemlji Haldejskoj na rijeci Hevaru, i ondje doðe ruka Gospodnja nada nj.
the LORD’s word came to Ezekiel the priest, the son of Buzi, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Chebar; and the LORD’s hand was there on him.
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;
I looked, and behold, a stormy wind came out of the north: a great cloud, with flashing lightning, and a brightness around it, and out of the middle of it as it were glowing metal, out of the middle of the fire.
5 Isred njega još kao èetiri životinje, koje na oèi bijahu nalik na èovjeka;
Out of its centre came the likeness of four living creatures. This was their appearance: They had the likeness of a man.
6 I u svake bijahu èetiri lica, i èetiri krila u svake;
Everyone had four faces, and each one of them had four wings.
7 I noge im bijahu prave, a u stopalu bijahu im noge kao u teleta; i sijevahu kao uglaðena mjed.
Their feet were straight feet. The sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot; and they sparkled like burnished bronze.
8 I ruke im bijahu èovjeèije pod krilima nad èetiri strane, i lica im i krila bijahu na èetiri strane.
They had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides. The four of them had their faces and their wings like this:
9 Sastavljena im bijahu krila jedno s drugim; i ne okretahu se iduæi, nego svaka iðaše naprema se.
Their wings were joined to one another. They didn’t turn when they went. Each one went 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.
As for the likeness of their faces, they had the face of a man. The four of them had the face of a lion on the right side. The four of them had the face of an ox on the left side. The four of them also had the face of an eagle.
11 I lica im i krila bijahu razdijeljena ozgo; u svake se dva krila sastavljahu jedno s drugim, a dva pokrivahu im tijelo.
Such were their faces. Their wings were spread out above. Two wings of each one touched another, and two covered their bodies.
12 I svaka iðaše pravo naprema se; iðahu kuda duh iðaše, i ne okretahu se iduæi.
Each one went straight forward. Where the spirit was to go, they went. They didn’t turn when they went.
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.
As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches. The fire went up and down amongst the living creatures. The fire was bright, and lightning went out of the fire.
14 I životinje trèahu i vraæahu se kao munja.
The living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
15 I kad gledah životinje, gle, toèak jedan bijaše na zemlji uza svaku životinju prema èetiri lica njihova.
Now as I saw the living creatures, behold, there was one wheel on the earth beside the living creatures, for each of the four faces of it.
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.
The appearance of the wheels and their work was like a beryl. The four of them had one likeness. Their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel.
17 Kad iðahu, iðahu sva èetiri svaki na svoju stranu, i iduæi ne skretahu.
When they went, they went in their four directions. They didn’t turn when they went.
18 I naplaci im bijahu visoki strahota; i bijahu naplaci puni oèiju unaokolo u sva èetiri.
As for their rims, they were high and dreadful; and the four of them had their rims full of eyes all around.
19 I kad iðahu životinje, iðahu i toèkovi uz njih; i kad se životinje podizahu od zemlje, podizahu se i toèkovi.
When the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them. When the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
20 Kuda duh iðaše, onamo iðahu, i podizahu se toèkovi prema njima, jer duh životinjski bješe u toèkovima.
Wherever the spirit was to go, they went. The spirit was to go there. The wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creature 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, these went. When those stood, these stood. When those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up beside them; for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.
22 A nad glavama životinjama bijaše kao nebo, po viðenju kao kristal, strašno, razastrto ozgo nad glavama njihovijem.
Over the head of the living creature there was the likeness of an expanse, like an awesome crystal to look at, stretched out over their heads above.
23 A pod tijem nebom bijahu im krila pružena, jedno prema drugom, a dva krila svakoj pokrivahu tijelo.
Under the expanse, their wings were straight, one towards the other. Each one had two which covered on this side, and each one had two which covered their bodies on that side.
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.
When they went, I heard the noise of their wings like the noise of great waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a noise of tumult like the noise of an army. When they stood, they let down their wings.
25 I kad stavši spuštahu krila, èujaše se glas ozgo iz neba, koje bijaše nad glavama njihovijem.
There was a voice above the expanse that was over their heads. When they stood, they let down their wings.
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.
Above the expanse that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone. On the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man on it 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.
I saw as it were glowing metal, as the appearance of fire within it all around, from the appearance of his waist and upward; and from the appearance of his waist and downward I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and there was brightness around him.
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 rainbow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness all around. This was the appearance of the likeness of the LORD’s glory. When I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of one that spoke.
