< Jezekilj 9 >
1 Potom povika iza glasa, te èuh, i reèe: pristupite koji ste poslani na grad svaki s oružjem svojim smrtnijem u ruci.
Then he cried in my hearing with a loud voice, and said, “Let the guards come up to the city, each with his weapon of destruction 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.
Then behold! Six men came from the pathway of the upper gate that faces north, each with his weapon of slaughter in his hand. There was a man in their midst dressed in linen with a scribe's equipment at his side. So they went in and stood beside the bronze 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.
Then the glory of the God of Israel went up from the cherubim where it had been to the threshold of the house. He called to the man dressed in linen who had the scribe's equipment at his side.
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.
Yahweh said to him, “Pass through the midst of the city—the midst of Jerusalem—and make a mark on the foreheads of those who groan and sigh about all the abominations being performed in the midst of the city.”
5 A drugima reèe i èuh: proðite za njim po gradu, i pobijte, neka ne žali oko vaše niti se smilujte;
Then he spoke to the others within my hearing, “Pass through the city after him and kill. Do not let your eyes have compassion, and do not spare
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.
either old man, young man, virgin, little children or women. Kill all of them! But do not approach anyone who has the mark on his head. Begin at my sanctuary!” So they began with the elders who were in front of the house.
7 I reèe im: oskvrnite dom, i napunite trijemove pobijenijeh; idite. I izašavši stadoše ubijati.
He said to them, “Defile the house, and fill its courtyards with the dead. Proceed!” So they went out and attacked 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?
As they were attacking it, I found myself alone and I fell on my face and cried out and said, “Ah, Lord Yahweh, will you destroy all the remnant of Israel in the outpouring of your wrath on 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.
He said to me, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great. The land is full of blood and the city full of perversions, since they say, 'Yahweh has forgotten the land,' and 'Yahweh does not see!'
10 Zato ni moje oko neæe žaliti, niti æu se smilovati; put njihov obratiæu na glavu njihovu.
So then, my eye will not look with compassion, and I will not spare them. I will instead bring it all on their heads.”
11 I gle, èovjek, obuèen u platno, kojemu uz bedricu bijaše oprava pisarska, javi govoreæi: uèinio sam kako si mi zapovjedio.
Behold! The man dressed in linen who had the scribe's equipment by his side came back. He reported and said, “I have done all that you have commanded.”
