Jezekilj 28
1 Opet mi doðe rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
[Then] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said]:
2 Sine èovjeèji, reci knezu Tirskomu: ovako veli Gospod Gospod: što se ponese srce tvoje, te veliš: ja sam Bog, sjedim na prijestolu Božjem usred mora; a èovjek si a ne Bog, i izjednaèuješ srce svoje sa srcem Božjim;
“You human, give to the king of Tyre this message from [me], Yahweh the Lord: ‘You have very proudly claimed, “I am a god! I sit on a throne of a god [in a city on an island] in the sea!” You boast that you are a god; but you are only a man, not a god.
3 Eto mudriji si od Danila, nikaka tajna nije sakrivena od tebe;
[You think that] you are wiser than Daniel was, [and you think that] you can understand every secret.
4 Stekao si blago mudrošæu svojom i razumom svojim, i nasuo si zlata i srebra u riznice svoje;
By being wise and understanding [a lot], you have become [very] rich; you have acquired much gold and silver for your treasuries.
5 Velièinom mudrosti svoje u trgovini svojoj umnožio si blago svoje, te se ponese srce tvoje blagom tvojim;
[Yes, it is true that] by trading wisely, you have been enabled to become very rich, and because you are rich, you have become very proud.
6 Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: što izjednaèuješ srce svoje sa srcem Božjim,
Therefore, this is what Yahweh the Lord says: “Because you think that you are as wise as a god,
7 Zato, evo, ja æu dovesti na tebe inostrance najljuæe izmeðu naroda, i oni æe istrgnuti maèeve svoje na ljepotu mudrosti tvoje, i ubiæe svjetlost tvoju.
I will [now] bring a foreign [army] to attack your [country], an army that causes other nations to be terrified. They will pull out their swords to strike you, [you who think that] [IRO] you have marvelous/great wisdom, and they will destroy all your beautiful things.
8 Svaliæe te u jamu, i umrijeæeš usred mora smræu pobijenijeh.
They will bring you down to your grave; you will die violently like [MET] those who died in the sea.
9 Hoæeš li pred krvnikom svojim kazati: ja sam Bog, kad si èovjek a ne Bog u ruci onoga koji æe te ubiti?
Then you will certainly not [RHQ] say to those who are killing you, 'I am a god!' [because they will know that] you are not a god; you are only a man.
10 Umrijeæeš smræu neobrezanijeh od ruke tuðinske; jer ja rekoh, govori Gospod Gospod.
You will die like other people who are unacceptable to me die, killed by foreigners.” [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.’”
11 Opet mi doðe rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
Yahweh also gave me this message:
12 Sine èovjeèji, narièi za carem Tirskim, i reci mu: ovako veli Gospod Gospod: ti si peèat savršenstva, pun si mudrosti, i sasvijem si lijep.
“You human, sing a sad/funeral song about the king of Tyre. Say to him, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: [“You thought that] [IRO] you were completely perfect, extremely wise and handsome.
13 Bio si u Edemu vrtu Božjem; pokrivalo te je svako drago kamenje: sarad, topaz, dijamanat, hrisolit, onih, jaspid, safir, karbunkul, smaragad i zlato; onaj dan kad si se rodio naèinjeni ti biše bubnji tvoji i svirale.
You [had a wonderful life, as though] you were in my [beautiful] garden in Eden. Your [clothes] were decorated with many [HYP] kinds of very valuable stones— ruby, topaz, emerald, chrysolite, onyx, jasper, turquoise, and beryl [stones]. Those stones were set/placed in gold [mountings]. They were prepared for you on the day that you were born.
14 Ti si bio heruvim, pomazan da zaklanjaš; i ja te postavih; ti bješe na svetoj gori Božijoj, hoðaše posred kamenja ognjenoga.
I appointed [DOU] you to be like [MET] a strong angel to guard the people. [It was as though I put] you on my holy mountain, and you walked among fiery stones.
15 Savršen bješe na putovima svojim od dana kad se rodi dokle se ne naðe bezakonje na tebi.
You were completely good in all that you did, from the day that you were created/born, until you [started to] do wicked things.
16 Od mnoštva trgovine svoje napunio si se iznutra nasilja, i griješio si; zato æu te baciti kao neèistotu s gore Božje, i zatræu te izmeðu kamenja ognjenoga, heruvime zaklanjaèu!
[Then] you became busy trading things, and you started to act violently, and you sinned. So I caused you to be disgraced; and the angel who was guarding you forced you to leave my holy mountain, forced you to leave your place among those fiery stones.
17 Srce se tvoje ponese ljepotom tvojom, ti pokvari mudrost svoju svjetlošæu svojom; baciæu te na zemlju, pred careve æu te položiti da te gledaju.
You were extremely proud because you were very handsome. Because you loved beautiful things, you did things that wise people do not do. [So] I threw you to the ground, and allowed [other] kings who saw you to laugh at you.
18 Od mnoštva bezakonja svojega, od nepravde u trgovini svojoj oskvrnio si svetinju svoju; zato æu izvesti oganj ispred tebe, koji æe te proždrijeti, i obratiæu te u pepeo na zemlji pred svjema koji te gledaju.
By committing many sins and by trading things dishonestly, you caused your places of worship to become unacceptable to me. So I caused a fire [to burn down your city]. [Your city] was burned completely; the people who were watching it saw that only ashes remained on the ground.
19 Svi koji te poznaju meðu narodima prepašæe se od tebe; biæeš strahota, i neæe te biti dovijeka.
All the people who knew what your [city was like previously] were appalled. Now [your city] has disappeared, and it will not exist any more.”’”
20 Opet mi doðe rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
[Then] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said],
21 Sine èovjeèji, okreni lice svoje prema Sidonu, i prorokuj protiv njega,
“You human, turn toward Sidon [city], and declare the terrible things that will happen to it.
22 I reci: ovako veli Gospod Gospod: evo me na tebe, Sidone, i proslaviæu se usred tebe, i poznaæe se da sam ja Gospod kad izvršim sudove na njemu i posvetim se u njemu.
Give [the people of Sidon] this message from [me], Yahweh the Lord: ‘I am your enemy, [you people of] Sidon, and by what I do to you, I will reveal that I am very great/glorious. When I punish you and reveal that I am holy, everyone who is watching that will know that it is I, Yahweh, [who have the power to do what I say that I will do].
23 I poslaæu pomor u nj, i krv na ulice njegove, i pobijeni æe padati usred njega od maèa, koji æe navaliti na njih sa svijeh strana, i poznaæe da sam ja Gospod.
I will send a plague upon you, and I will send [enemies to come and] kill [MTY] you in your streets. They will attack you from every direction, and your people will be slaughtered inside the walls of your city. Then everyone will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'
24 I neæe više biti domu Izrailjevu trn koji bode ni žalac koji zadaje bol više od svijeh susjeda njihovijeh, koji ih plijene; i poznaæe da sam ja Gospod Gospod.
No longer will those who live near you people of Israel [hurt you] like [MET] painful briers and sharp thorns [hurt people]. And then the Israeli people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
25 Ovako veli Gospod Gospod: kad skupim dom Izrailjev iz naroda meðu koje su rasijani, i posvetim se u njima pred narodima i nasele se u svojoj zemlji koju dadoh sluzi svojemu Jakovu,
And this is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “Some day the people of Israel will live in their own land [again], the land that I gave to Jacob, who [also] served me. I will gather them from [distant] countries where I have scattered them. And I will reveal to the nations that I am holy among my people.
26 Tada æe živjeti u njoj bez straha, i gradiæe kuæe, i sadiæe vinograde, i živjeæe bez straha kad izvršim sudove na svjema koji ih plijeniše sa svijeh strana, i poznaæe da sam ja Gospod Bog njihov.
My people will live safely in Israel; they will build houses and plant vineyards. And when I punish the nearby nations that despised them, they will know that it is I, Yahweh their God, [who has done it].”
