Jezekilj 24
1 Potom godine devete, desetoga mjeseca, desetoga dana, doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
In the ninth year, on the tenth day of the tenth month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 Sine èovjeèji, zapiši ime ovoga dana, ovoga istoga dana; u taj dan doðe car Vavilonski na Jerusalim.
“Son of man, write down today’s date, for on this very day the king of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem.
3 I kaži prièu tome domu odmetnièkom, i reci im: ovako veli Gospod Gospod: pristavi lonac, pristavi, i nalij u nj vode.
Now speak a parable to this rebellious house and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Put the pot on the fire; put it on and pour in the water.
4 Složi u nj dijelove, sve dobre dijelove, stegno i pleæe, i napuni ga najboljih kostiju.
Put in the pieces of meat, every good piece— thigh and shoulder— fill it with choice bones.
5 Uzmi najbolje iz stada, i naloži kosti ispod njega, i uzvari dobro da se i kosti raskuhaju u njemu.
Take the choicest of the flock and pile the fuel beneath it. Bring it to a boil and cook the bones in it.’
6 Jer ovako veli Gospod Gospod: teško gradu krvnièkom, loncu, na kom stoji zagorijel, s kojega neæe da siðe zagorijel; povadi dio po dio; ždrijeb da se ne baci za nj.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Woe to the city of bloodshed, to the pot now rusted, whose rust will not come off! Empty it piece by piece; cast no lots for its contents.
7 Jer je krv njegova usred njega; na go kamen metnu je, ne proli je na zemlju da se pokrije prahom.
For the blood she shed is still within her; she poured it out on the bare rock; she did not pour it on the ground to cover it with dust.
8 Raspalivši gnjev da uèinim osvetu, metnuæu krv njegovu na go kamen da se ne pokrije.
In order to stir up wrath and take vengeance, I have placed her blood on the bare rock, so that it would not be covered.’
9 Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: teško gradu krvnièkom! i ja æu naložiti velik oganj.
Yes, this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Woe to the city of bloodshed! I, too, will pile the kindling high.
10 Nanesi drva, i raspali oganj, neka se stroši meso, zaèini korijenjem, i kosti neka izgore.
Pile on the logs and kindle the fire; cook the meat well and mix in the spices; let the bones be burned.
11 Metni ga prazna na živo ugljevlje da se ugrije i izgori mjed njegova i da se stopi u njemu neèistota njegova i da nestane zagorijeli njegove.
Set the empty pot on its coals until it becomes hot and its copper glows. Then its impurity will melt within; its rust will be consumed.
12 Lažima dosadio mi je; zato neæe izaæi iz njega mnoga zagorijel njegova; u oganj æe zagorijel njegova.
It has frustrated every effort; its thick rust has not been removed, even by the fire.
13 U neèistoti je tvojoj grdilo tvoje; jer sam te èistio, ali se ti ne oèisti; neæeš se više èistiti od neèistote svoje, dokle ne namirim gnjev svoj nad tobom.
Because of the indecency of your uncleanness I tried to cleanse you, but you would not be purified from your filthiness. You will not be pure again until My wrath against you has subsided.
14 Ja Gospod govorih; doæi æe, i izvršiæu; neæu odustati niti æu žaliti niti æu se raskajati, po putovima tvojim i po djelima tvojim sudiæe ti, govori Gospod Gospod.
I, the LORD, have spoken; the time is coming, and I will act. I will not refrain or show pity, nor will I relent. I will judge you according to your ways and deeds,’
15 Opet mi doðe rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
16 Sine èovjeèji, evo ja æu ti uzeti želju oèiju tvojih zlom, ali ne tuži ni plaèi, niti suza roni.
“Son of man, behold, I am about to take away the desire of your eyes with a fatal blow. But you must not mourn or weep or let your tears flow.
17 Nemoj uzdisati, ne žali kako biva za mrtvijem, metni kapu na glavu, i obuæu svoju obuj na noge, i usta svojih nemoj pokriti i hljeba nièijega ne jedi.
Groan quietly; do not mourn for the dead. Put on your turban and strap your sandals on your feet; do not cover your lips or eat the bread of mourners.”
18 I govorih ujutru narodu, a uveèe mi umrije žena; i sjutradan uèinih kako mi bješe zapovjeðeno.
So I spoke to the people in the morning, and in the evening my wife died. And the next morning I did as I had been commanded.
19 I reèe mi narod: hoæeš li nam kazati šta nam je to što radiš?
Then the people asked me, “Won’t you tell us what these things you are doing mean to us?”
20 I odgovorih im: doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
So I answered them, “The word of the LORD came to me, saying:
21 Reci domu Izrailjevu: ovako veli Gospod Gospod: evo, ja æu oskvrniti svetinju svoju, velièanstvo sile vaše, želju oèiju vaših i što je milo duši vašoj; i sinovi æe vaši i kæeri vaše koje ostaviste pasti od maèa.
Tell the house of Israel that this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘I am about to desecrate My sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and the delight of your soul. And the sons and daughters you left behind will fall by the sword.’
22 I èiniæete kako ja èinim: usta neæete pokriti i hljeba nièijega neæete jesti;
Then you will do as I have done: You will not cover your lips or eat the bread of mourners.
23 I kape æe vam biti na glavama i obuæa na nogu; neæete tužiti ni plakati, nego æete sa bezakonja svojih èiljeti i uzdisaæete jedan s drugim.
Your turbans will remain on your heads and your sandals on your feet. You will not mourn or weep, but you will waste away because of your sins, and you will groan among yourselves.
24 I Jezekilj æe vam biti znak: èiniæete sve što on èini; kad to doðe, poznaæete da sam ja Gospod Gospod.
‘Thus Ezekiel will be a sign for you; you will do everything that he has done. When this happens, you will know that I am the Lord GOD.’
25 A ti, sine èovjeèji, u onaj dan kad im uzmem silu njihovu, radost slave njihove, želju oèiju njihovijeh i za èim teži duša njihova, sinove njihove i kæeri njihove,
And you, son of man, know that on the day I take away their stronghold, their pride and joy—the desire of their eyes which uplifted their souls—and their sons and daughters as well,
26 U taj dan ko uteèe, neæe li doæi k tebi da ti donese glas?
on that day a fugitive will come and tell you the news.
27 U taj æe se dan otvoriti usta tvoja prema onom ko uteèe, i govoriæeš i neæeš više biti nijem; i biæeš im znak, i oni æe poznati da sam ja Gospod.
On that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped; you will speak and no longer be mute. So you will be a sign to them, and they will know that I am the LORD.”
