< 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 ears with a loud voice, saying, “Cause those who are in charge of the city to draw near, each man with his 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.
Behold, six men came from the way of the upper gate, which lies towards the north, every man with his slaughter weapon in his hand. One man in the middle of them was clothed in linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side. 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.
The glory of the God of Israel went up from the cherub, whereupon it was, to the threshold of the house; and he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer’s inkhorn by 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.
The LORD said to him, “Go through the middle of the city, through the middle of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry over all the abominations that are done within it.”
5 A drugima reèe i èuh: proðite za njim po gradu, i pobijte, neka ne žali oko vaše niti se smilujte;
To the others he said in my hearing, “Go through the city after him, and strike. Don’t let your eye spare, neither have 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.
Kill utterly the old man, the young man, the virgin, little children and women; but don’t come near any man on whom is the mark. Begin at my sanctuary.” Then they began at the old men who were before 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 the courts with the slain. Go out!” They went out, and struck 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?
While they were killing, and I was left, I fell on my face, and cried, and said, “Ah Lord GOD! Will you destroy all the residue of Israel in your pouring out 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.
Then he said to me, “The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perversion; for they say, ‘The LORD has forsaken the land, and the LORD doesn’t see.’
10 Zato ni moje oko neæe žaliti, niti æu se smilovati; put njihov obratiæu na glavu njihovu.
As for me also, my eye won’t spare, neither will I have pity, but I will bring their way on their head.”
11 I gle, èovjek, obuèen u platno, kojemu uz bedricu bijaše oprava pisarska, javi govoreæi: uèinio sam kako si mi zapovjedio.
Behold, the man clothed in linen, who had the inkhorn by his side, reported the matter, saying, “I have done as you have commanded me.”
