Jezekilj 3
1 I reèe mi: sine èovjeèji, pojedi što je pred tobom, pojedi ovu knjigu, pa idi, govori domu Izrailjevu.
He said to me, “You human, eat this scroll that is in front of you. Then go and speak to the Israeli people [MTY].”
2 I otvorih usta, i založi me onom knjigom.
So I opened my mouth, and he gave me the scroll to eat it.
3 I reèe mi: sine èovjeèji, nahrani trbuh svoj, i crijeva svoja napuni ovom knjigom koju ti dajem. I pojedoh je, i bješe mi u ustima slatka kao med.
Then he said to me, “You human, eat the scroll that I have given to you. Fill your stomach with it.” So I ate it, and in my mouth it tasted as sweet as honey.
4 Zatijem reèe mi: sine èovjeèji, idi k domu Izrailjevu, i govori im moje rijeèi.
Then he said to me, “You human, go to the Israeli people [MTY] and tell them my message.
5 Jer se ne šalješ k narodu nepoznata jezika i nerazumljiva govora, nego k domu Izrailjevu;
The people to whom I am sending you are not people whose language is very [to learn], a language which you do not understand. I am sending you to your Israeli people [MTY].
6 Ne k mnogim narodima nepoznata jezika i nerazumljiva govora, kojima rijeèi ne bi razumio; k njima da te pošljem, poslušali bi te.
I am sending you to people whose language you understand very well. If I were sending you to people whose language was difficult for you to understand, they [be surprised and] pay attention to what [say to them].
7 Ali dom Izrailjev neæe te poslušati, jer neæe mene da poslušaju; jer je sav dom Izrailjev tvrda obraza i uporna srca.
But the Israeli people do not want to listen to you because they do not want to listen to me. [They do not want to listen because] they are all very stubborn [DOU].
8 Evo dadoh tebi obraz tvrd prema njihovu obrazu, i èelo tvrdo prema njihovu èelu.
But I will enable you [SYN] to be as stubborn and tough as they are.
9 Kao kamen dijamanat, tvrðe od stijene dadoh ti èelo; ne boj ih se, niti se plaši od njih, zato što su dom odmetnièki.
I will cause you to be as firm/unbreakable as [SIM] the hardest stone, like flint. So, [even though] they are very rebellious people, do not be afraid of them; do not allow them to cause you to be afraid.”
10 Potom reèe mi: sine èovjeèji, sve rijeèi moje što æu ti govoriti primaj u srce svoje i slušaj ušima svojim.
He also said to me, “You human, listen very carefully to what I say, and keep thinking about it [IDM].
11 Idi k roblju, k sinovima naroda svojega, i govori im i reci im: tako veli Gospod Gospod; poslušali ili ne poslušali.
Go to your fellow Israelis who [here after being] (exiled/forced to leave their country), and speak to them. Say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says,’ [and then tell them my message], whether they want to hear it or whether they do not want to hear it.”
12 Tada podiže me duh, i èuh za sobom glas gdje se silno razliježe: blagoslovena slava Gospodnja s mjesta njegova;
[in the vision] the [of God] lifted me up, and I heard behind [someone speaking very loudly], like a loud rumbling sound. [I heard someone say, ] “Praise our glorious Yahweh in the place where he [in heaven]!”
13 I lupu krila onijeh životinja, koja udarahu jedno o drugo, i prasku toèkova prema njima, glas koji se silno razlijegaše.
[I heard] the sound of the wings of the four living creatures brushing against each other, [I also heard] the sound of the wheels that were beside them. It was a loud rumbling sound.
14 I duh me podiže i odnese, i iðah žalostan od srdnje u duhu svom; ali ruka Gospodnja silna bješe nada mnom.
The Spirit took me away. Within me I was very bitter and angry [DOU], but I felt Yahweh holding me very powerfully.
15 I doðoh k roblju u Telaviv, koje stanovaše na rijeci Hevaru, i sjedoh gdje oni sjeðahu, i sjedjeh ondje meðu njima sedam dana èudeæi se.
I came to the exiles who lived at Tel [town] near the Kebar River/ [south of Babylon]. Then, where they were living, I sat for seven days. I was [about everything that I had seen].
16 A poslije sedam dana doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
After those seven days had ended, Yahweh gave me this message:
17 Sine èovjeèji, postavih te stražarem domu Izrailjevu, da slušaš rijeèi iz mojih usta i opominješ ih od mene.
“You human, I am appointing [to be like] a watchman [MET] for the Israeli people [MTY]. [So] listen to these messages that I will give you, and tell them those messages to warn them.
18 Kad reèem bezbožniku: poginuæeš, a ti ga ne opomeneš i ne progovoriš mu da bi odvratio bezbožnika od bezbožnoga puta njegova, da bi ga saèuvao u životu, onaj æe bezbožnik poginuti sa svojega bezakonja; ali æu krv njegovu iskati iz tvojih ruku.
When I say about some wicked people, ‘They will surely [because of their sins],’ if you do not warn them or tell them that they must turn from their wicked behavior if they want to (save their lives/remain alive), those wicked people will die because of the sins that they have committed, but I will consider that you are responsible for their deaths [MTY].
19 A kad ti opomeneš bezbožnika, a on se i ne vrati od bezbožnosti svoje i sa zloga puta svojega, on æe poginuti s bezakonja svojega, a ti æeš saèuvati dušu svoju.
But if you warn the wicked people and they do not turn from all their wicked behavior [DOU], they will die because of their sins, but you will have saved [from my punishing you].
20 Ako li se pravednik odvrati od pravde svoje, i stane èiniti bezakonje, i ja mu podmetnem na što æe se spotaæi, te pogine, a ti ga ne opomenu, on æe poginuti sa svoga grijeha, i neæe se pomenuti pravedna djela njegova što je èinio, ali æu krv njegovu iskati iz tvoje ruke.
Similarly, when righteous people turn from their righteous behavior and do evil deeds, I will cause bad things to happen [IDM] to them. [But you must warn them. If you do not warn them], and if they do not stop their sinful behavior, they will die because of their sins; I will not think about the righteous things that they [previously], but I will consider that you are responsible for their deaths [MTY].
21 Ako li ti opomeneš pravednika da ne griješi pravednik, i on prestane griješiti, on æe živjeti, jer primi opomenu, i ti æeš saèuvati dušu svoju.
But if you warn righteous people not to sin, and they do not sin, they will surely remain alive because they [your] warning, and you will have saved [from my punishing you].”
22 I doðe ondje nada me ruka Gospodnja, i reèe mi: ustani, izidi u polje, i ondje æu govoriti s tobom.
[I felt] Yahweh take control [MTY] of me, and he said to me, “Get up and go [from the city down] to the plain/valley, and there I will speak to you.”
23 I ustavši otidoh u polje, a gle, slava Gospodnja stajaše ondje kao slava koju vidjeh na rijeci Hevaru, i padoh na lice svoje.
So I got up and went down to the valley. And I saw the glory of Yahweh there, like the glory that I had seen along the Kebar River/Canal. And I prostrated myself on the ground.
24 I uðe u me duh, i postavi me na noge; i progovori sa mnom i reèe mi: idi, zatvori se u kuæu svoju.
Then the [of God] entered me and enabled me to stand up. He said to me, “Go into your house and stay inside it.
25 Jer, sine èovjeèji, evo, metnuæe na te uzice, i svezaæe te njima, i neæeš izlaziti meðu njih.
People will tie you with ropes, with the result that you will be unable to go out among the people.
26 I ja æu uèiniti da ti se jezik prilijepi za grlo, te æeš onijemjeti, i neæeš ih karati, jer su dom odmetnièki.
[Even though] they are very rebellious people, I will cause your tongue to stick to the roof of your mouth, with the result that you will be unable to talk and to rebuke them.
27 Ali kad ti progovorim, otvoriæu ti usta, i kazaæeš im: ovako veli Gospod Gospod; ko æe slušati, neka sluša, a ko neæe slušati, neka ne sluša; jer su dom odmetnièki.
[then] when I speak to [again], I will enable you to talk [MTY], and you will say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says,’ [and you will tell them my message]. Those who are willing to [to what you say] will listen, [many] will refuse to listen, because they are rebellious people [MTY].”
