< Jezekilj 31 >
1 A jedanaeste godine, treæega mjeseca, prvoga dana, doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
And in the eleuenth yeere, in the third moneth, and in the first day of the moneth the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
2 Sine èovjeèji, kaži Faraonu caru Misirskom i narodu njegovu: na što si nalik u velièini svojoj?
Sonne of man, speake vnto Pharaoh King of Egypt, and to his multitude, Whom art thou like in thy greatnesse?
3 Eto, Asirac bješe kedar na Livanu, lijepijeh grana i debela hlada i visoka rasta, kojemu vrhovi bijahu meðu gustijem granama.
Beholde, Asshur was like a cedar in Lebanon with faire branches, and with thicke shadowing boughes, and shot vp very hye, and his toppe was among the thicke boughes.
4 Voda ga odgoji, bezdana ga uzvisi; ona rijekama svojim tecijaše oko njegova stabla i puštaše potoke svoje k svijem drvetima poljskim.
The waters nourished him, and the deepe exalted him on hie with her riuers running round about his plants, and sent out her litle riuers vnto all the trees of the fielde.
5 Zato rast njegov nadvisi sva drveta poljska, i umnožiše se grane njegove, i od mnoštva vode raširiše se odvode njegove kad ih puštaše.
Therefore his height was exalted aboue all the trees of the fielde, and his boughes were multiplied, and his branches were long, because of the multitude of the waters, which the deepe sent out.
6 Na granama njegovijem vijahu gnijezda sve ptice nebeske, i pod granama njegovijem sve zvijeri poljske lezijahu se, i u hladu njegovu sjeðahu svi veliki narodi.
All the foules of the heauen made their nestes in his boughes, and vnder his branches did all the beastes of the fielde bring foorth their yong, and vnder his shadowe dwelt all mightie nations.
7 I bijaše lijep velièinom svojom i dužinom grana svojih, jer mu korijen bijaše kod velike vode.
Thus was he faire in his greatnesse, and in the length of his branches: for his roote was neere great waters.
8 Kedri u vrtu Božijem ne mogahu ga zakloniti, jele ne mogahu se izjednaèiti s njegovijem granama, i javori ne bijahu kao ogranci njegovi; nijedno drvo u vrtu Božijem ne bješe na ljepotu tako kao on.
The cedars in the garden of God coulde not hide him: no firre tree was like his branches, and the chessenut trees were not like his boughes: all the trees in the garden of God were not like vnto him in his beautie.
9 Uèinih ga lijepa mnoštvom grana da mu zaviðahu sva drveta Edemska što bijahu u vrtu Božijem.
I made him faire by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, enuied him.
10 Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: što je visok narastao, i digao vrh svoj meðu guste grane, i srce se njegovo ponijelo visinom njegovom,
Therefore thus sayeth the Lord God, Because he is lift vp on high, and hath shot vp his toppe among the thicke boughes, and his heart is lift vp in his height,
11 Zato ga dadoh u ruku najsilnijemu meðu narodima da èini s njim što hoæe, odvrgoh ga za bezbožnost njegovu.
I haue therefore deliuered him into the handes of the mightiest among the heathen: he shall handle him, for I haue cast him away for his wickednesse.
12 I tuðinci, najljuæi izmeðu naroda, posjekoše ga i ostaviše ga; grane mu popadaše po gorama i po svijem dolinama, i ogranci mu se izlomiše po svijem potocima na zemlji; i svi narodi zemaljski otidoše iz hlada njegova i ostaviše ga.
And the strangers haue destroyed him, euen the terrible nations, and they haue left him vpon the mountaines, and in all the valleis his branches are fallen, and his boughes are broken by all the riuers of the land: and all the people of the earth are departed from his shadowe, and haue forsaken him.
13 Na izvaljenom panju njegovu stanuju sve ptice nebeske, i na granama su njegovijem sve zvijeri poljske,
Vpon his ruine shall all the foules of the heauen remaine, and all the beastes of the fielde shall be vpon his branches,
14 Da se ne ponosi visinom svojom nijedno drvo kraj vode i ne diže vrha svojega meðu guste grane, i od svijeh što se natapaju da se nijedno ne uzda u se radi svoje velièine; jer su svi predani na smrt, baèeni u najdonji kraj zemlje meðu sinove ljudske s onima koji slaze u jamu.
So that none of all the trees by the waters shalbe exalted by their height, neither shall shoote vp their toppe among the thicke boughes, neither shall their leaues stand vp in their height, which drinke so much water: for they are all deliuered vnto death in the nether partes of the earth in the middes of the children of men among them that goe downe to the pit.
15 Ovako veli Gospod Gospod: u koji dan side u grob, uèinih žalost, pokrih bezdanu njega radi, i ustavih rijeke njezine, i velika voda stade, i rascvijelih za njim Livan, i sva drveta poljska povenuše za njim. (Sheol )
Thus saith the Lord God, In the day when he went downe to hell, I caused them to mourne, and I couered the deepe for him, and I did restreine the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: I caused Lebanon to mourne for him, and all the trees of the fielde fainted. (Sheol )
16 Praskom padanja njegova ustresoh narode, kad ga svalih u grob s onima koji slaze u jamu; i utješiše se na najdonjoj strani zemlje sva drveta Edemska, što je najbolje i najljepše na Livanu, sva što se natapahu. (Sheol )
I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him downe to hell with them that descend into the pit, and all the excellent trees of Eden, and the best of Lebanon: euen all that are nourished with waters, shall be comforted in the nether partes of the earth. (Sheol )
17 I oni sidoše s njim u grob k onima što su pobijeni maèem, i mišica njegova, i koji sjeðahu u hladu njegovu meðu narodima. (Sheol )
They also went downe to hell with him vnto them that be slaine with the sworde, and his arme, and they that dwelt vnder his shadowe in the middes of the heathen. (Sheol )
18 Na koje si meðu drvetima Edemskim nalik slavom i velièinom? Ali æeš biti oboren s drvetima Edemskim u najdonji kraj zemlje, meðu neobrezanima æeš ležati s onima koji su pobijeni maèem. To je Faraon i sav narod njegov, govori Gospod Gospod.
To whom art thou thus like in glorie and in greatnesse among the trees of Eden? yet thou shalt be cast downe with the trees of Eden vnto the nether partes of the earth: thou shalt sleepe in the middes of the vncircumcised, with them that be slaine by the sworde: this is Pharaoh and all his multitude, sayth the Lord God.
