Jezekilj 21
1 I doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
Then came the word of Yahweh unto me, saying:
2 Sine èovjeèji, okreni lice svoje prema Jerusalimu, i pokaplji prema svetijem mjestima, i prorokuj protiv zemlje Izrailjeve.
Son of man Set thy face against Jerusalem, And drop thy word against the holy places And prophesy against the soil of Israel.
3 I reci zemlji Izrailjevoj: ovako veli Gospod: evo me na te; izvuæi æu maè svoj iz korica, i istrijebiæu iz tebe pravednoga i bezbožnoga.
Thou shalt say then to the soil of Israel Thus saith Yahweh, Behold me against thee, Therefore will I bring forth my sword out of its sheath, —and will cut off from thee the righteous and the lawless.
4 Da istrijebim iz tebe pravednoga i bezbožnoga, zato æe izaæi maè moj iz korica svojih na svako tijelo od juga do sjevera.
Because I have cut off from thee the righteous and the lawless, Therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from south to north:
5 I poznaæe svako tijelo da sam ja Gospod izvukao maè svoj iz korica njegovijeh, neæe se više vratiti.
So shall all flesh know that, I, Yahweh have brought forth my sword out of its sheath, — it shall not return any more.
6 A ti, sine èovjeèji, uzdiši kao da su ti bedra polomljena, i gorko uzdiši pred njima.
Thou, therefore O son of man sigh, — In the sharp pain of thy loins and in bitterness, shalt thou sigh before their eyes.
7 A kada ti reku: zašto uzdišeš? ti reci: za glas što ide, od kojega æe se rastopiti svako srce i klonuti sve ruke i svakoga æe duha nestati, i svaka æe koljena postati kao voda; evo, ide, i navršiæe se, govori Gospod Gospod.
And it shall come to pass when they shall say unto thee, Wherefore art thou sighing? that thou shalt say, For the report because it cometh, When every heart shall melt. And all hands be unnerved And every spirit shall become faint. And all knees shall be weak as water, Lo! it cometh and shall be brought to pass, Saith My Lord, Yahweh.
8 Potom doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
And the word of Yahweh came unto me. saying:
9 Sine èovjeèji, prorokuj i reci: ovako veli Gospod Gospod: reci: maè, maè je naoštren, i uglaðen je.
Son of man, Prophesy and thou shalt say, Thus saith My Lord, — Say, A sword! a sword! Sharpened moreover also furbished:
10 Naoštren je da kolje, uglaðen je da sijeva; hoæemo li se radovati kad prut sina mojega ne haje ni za kako drvo?
To make a slaughter, is it sharpened, That it may flash as lightning, is it furbished. Or shall we flourish the royal rod of my son which despiseth every tree?
11 Dao ga je da se ugladi da se uzme u ruku; maè je naoštren i uglaðen, da se da u ruku ubici.
It hath. however been given to be furbished that it may be grasped by the hand: The same is a sword sharpened. Yea the same, is furbished, Ready to be given into the hand of the slayer.
12 Vièi i ridaj, sine èovjeèji; jer on ide na narod moj, na sve knezove Izrailjeve; pod maè æe biti okrenuti s narodom mojim, zato udri se po bedru.
Make an outcry and howl son of man, For the same hath come against my people, the same is against all the princes of Israel, - Who are thrown to the sword with my people, Therefore smite thou upon thy thigh.
13 Kad bješe karanje, šta bi? eda li ni od pruta koji ne haje neæe biti ništa? govori Gospod Gospod.
For trial hath been made, What then, even though the royal rod despiseth, shall it not be? Demandeth My Lord. Yahweh.
14 Ti dakle, sine èovjeèji, prorokuj i pljeskaj rukama, jer æe maè doæi i drugom i treæom, maè koji ubija, maè koji velike ubija, koji prodire u klijeti.
Thou, therefore, son of man, Prophesy, and smite thy hands together, And let the sword smite twice thrice the sword of the slain! the same is the great sword of the slain, that which hemmeth them in.
15 Da se rastope srca i umnoži pogibao, metnuo sam na sva vrata njihova strah od maèa; jaoh! pripravljen je da sijeva, naoštren da kolje.
That the heart may melt And the overthrow be multiplied at all their gates, I have recompensed a slaying by the sword: Surely it hath been made ready to flash like lightning, keen for slaughter.
16 Stegni se, udri nadesno, nalijevo, kuda se god obrneš.
One firm stroke to the right. Turn to the left, - Whithersoever thine edge is directed,
17 Jer æu i ja pljeskati rukama, i namiriæu gnjev svoj. Ja Gospod rekoh.
Yea even I myself, will smite my hands together, And will cause mine indignation to find rest, — I Yahweh, have spoken.
18 Još mi doðe rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
Then came the word of Yahweh unto me saying:
19 A ti, sine èovjeèji, naèini dva puta, kuda æe doæi maè cara Vavilonskoga; iz jedne zemlje neka izlaze oba; i izberi stranu, gdje se poèinje put gradski, izberi.
Thou, therefore son of man. Appoint thee two ways For the sword of the king of Babylon to enter, Out of one land shall those two ways come, — And a hand, engrave thou, At the head of the way to the city, engrave it.;
20 Naèini put, kojim æe doæi maè na Ravu sinova Amonovijeh, i u Judeju na tvrdi Jerusalim.
A way, shalt thou appoint, for the sword to enter. Even to Rabbah of the sons of Ammon, — And to Judah against Jerusalem, the defenced,
21 Jer æe car Vavilonski stati na rasputici, gdje poèinju dva puta, te æe vraèati, gladiæe strijele, pitaæe likove, gledaæe u jetru.
For the king of Babylon, hath come to a stand, At the parting of the way At the head of the two ways To divine a divination: He hath shaken with arrows He hath asked of the household gods, He hath inspected the liver.
22 Nadesno æe mu vraèanje pokazati Jerusalim da namjesti ubojne sprave, da otvori usta na klanje, da podigne glas podvikujuæi, da namjesti ubojne sprave prema vratima, da naèini opkope, da pogradi kule.
On his right hand, hath come the divination—Jerusalem! To plant battering-rams To open a hole by breach To lift up the voice with a war-shout, — To plant battering-rams against the gates, To cast up an earth-work To build a siege-wall.
23 I uèiniæe se vraèanje zaludno zakletima, a to æe napomenuti bezakonje da se uhvate.
Though it will become to them a veritably false divination in their eyes, even when bound by oaths to them Yet, he, calling to mind iniquity, [will determine] that it shall be captured.
24 Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: što napominjete svoje bezakonje, te se otkriva nevjera vaša i grijesi se vaši vide u svijem djelima vašim, zato što doðoste na pamet, biæete pohvatani rukom.
Therefore Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, Because ye have brought to mind your iniquity, by revealing your transgressions causing your sins to appear in all your doings, - Because ye have brought yourselves to mind By force shall ye be captured.
25 A ti, neèisti bezbožnièe, kneže Izrailjev, kome doðe dan kad bi na kraju bezakonje,
Thou therefore, O profane, lawless one, prince of Israel, - Whose day hath come, in a time of final iniquity:
26 Ovako veli Gospod Gospod: skini tu kapu i svrzi taj vijenac, neæe ga biti; niskoga æu uzvisiti a visokoga æu poniziti.
Thus, saith My Lord. Yahweh, Remove the turban, And lift off the crown, — This not that, The abased, exalt, And the exalted, abase.
27 Uništiæu, uništiæu, uništiæu ga, i neæe ga biti, dokle ne doðe onaj kome pripada, i njemu æu ga dati.
An overthrow overthrow overthrow, will I make it, — Even this, hath not befallen until the coming of One to whom belongeth the right Then will I bestow it.
28 A ti, sine èovjeèji, prorokuj i reci: ovako veli Gospod Gospod za sinove Amonove i za njihovu sramotu; reci dakle: maè, maè je izvuèen, uglaðen da kolje, da zatire, da sijeva,
Thou, therefore, son of man Prophesy and say, thus, saith My Lord. Yahweh, As to the sons of Ammon and as to their reproach Yea thou shalt say. A sword! a sword! Drawn for slaughter, Furbished, that when it beginneth, it may flash like lightning;
29 Dokle ti viðaju taštinu, dokle ti gataju laž, da te metnu na vratove pobijenijem bezbožnicima, kojima doðe dan kad bi kraj bezakonju.
Since they see for thee, false visions, Since they divine for thee lies, To stretch thee upon the necks of them who are the most profaned of lawless ones, Whose day hath come, in a time of final iniquity,
30 Ostavi maè u korice; na mjestu gdje si se rodio, u zemlji gdje si postao, sudiæu ti;
Put it back into its sheath! In the place where thou wast created In the land of thy nativity, will I judge thee
31 I izliæu na te gnjev svoj, ognjem gnjeva svojega dunuæu na te i predaæu te u ruke žestokim ljudma, vještim u zatiranju.
Then will I pour out upon thee mine indignation, With the fire of mine outburst, will I blow upon thee; and will deliver thee up into the hand of brutish men, skilled to destroy.
32 Ognju æeš biti hrana, krv æe ti biti posred zemlje, neæeš se spominjati, jer ja Gospod rekoh.
For the fire, shalt thou serve as fuel, Thy blood shall be in the midst of the land, - Thou shalt not be remembered, For I, Yahweh, have spoken.
