Jezekilj 9
1 Potom povika iza glasa, te èuh, i reèe: pristupite koji ste poslani na grad svaki s oružjem svojim smrtnijem u ruci.
And he cried in my ears with a loud voice, saying: The visitations of the city are at hand, and every one hath a destroying weapon in his hand.
2 I gle, šest ljudi doðe do visokih vrata, koja gledaju na sjever, svaki sa svojim oružjem smrtnijem u ruci, i meðu njima bješe jedan èovjek obuèen u platno s opravom pisarskom uz bedricu; i došavši stadoše kod oltara mjedenoga.
And behold six men came from the way of the upper gate, which looketh to the north: and each one had his weapon of destruction in his hand: and there was one man in the midst of them clothed with linen, with a writer’s inkhorn at his reins: and they went in, and stood by the brazen altar.
3 A slava Boga Izrailjeva podiže se s heruvima, na kojima bijaše, na prag od doma, i viknu èovjeka obuèenoga u platno koji imaše uz bedricu opravu pisarsku.
And the glory of the Lord of Israel went up from the cherub, upon which he was, to the threshold of the house: and he called to the man that was clothed with linen, and had a writer’s inkhorn at his loins.
4 I reèe mu Gospod: proði posred grada, posred Jerusalima, i zabilježi biljegom èela onijem ljudima koji uzdišu i koji ridaju radi svijeh gadova što se èine usred njega.
And the Lord said to him: Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem: and mark Thau upon the foreheads of the men that sigh, and mourn for all the abominations that are committed in the midst thereof.
5 A drugima reèe i èuh: proðite za njim po gradu, i pobijte, neka ne žali oko vaše niti se smilujte;
And to the others he said in my hearing: Go ye after him through the city, and strike: let not your eyes spare, nor be ye moved with pity.
6 Starce i mladiæe, i djevojke i djecu i žene pobijte da se istrijebe; ali na kome god bude znak, k njemu ne pristupajte; i poènite od moje svetinje. I poèeše od starješina što bjehu pred domom.
Utterly destroy old and young, maidens, children and women: but upon whomsoever you shall see Thau, kill him not, and begin ye at my sanctuary. So they began at the ancient men who mere before the house.
7 I reèe im: oskvrnite dom, i napunite trijemove pobijenijeh; idite. I izašavši stadoše ubijati.
And he said to them: Defile the house, and ill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew them that were in the city.
8 A kad ubijahu i ja ostah, padoh na lice svoje i povikah i rekoh: jaoh Gospode Gospode, eda li æeš zatrti sav ostatak Izrailjev izlivši gnjev svoj na Jerusalim?
And the slaughter being ended I was left: and I fell upon my face, and crying, I said: Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God, wilt thou then destroy all the remnant of Israel, by pouring out thy fury upon Jerusalem?
9 A on mi reèe: bezakonje doma Izrailjeva i Judina preveliko je, i puna je zemlja krvi, i grad je pun opaèine; jer rekoše: Gospod je ostavio zemlju, i Gospod ne vidi.
And he said to me: The iniquity of the house of Israel, and of Juda, is exceeding great, and the land is filled with blood, and the city is filled with perverseness: for they have said: The Lord hath forsaken the earth, and the Lord seeth not.
10 Zato ni moje oko neæe žaliti, niti æu se smilovati; put njihov obratiæu na glavu njihovu.
Therefore neither shall my eye spare, nor will I have pity: I will requite their way upon their head.
11 I gle, èovjek, obuèen u platno, kojemu uz bedricu bijaše oprava pisarska, javi govoreæi: uèinio sam kako si mi zapovjedio.
And behold the man that was clothed with linen, that had the inkhorn at his back, returned the word, saying: I have done as thou hast commanded me.
