Jezekilj 1
1 Godine tridesete, mjeseca èetvrtoga, petoga dana, kad bijah meðu robljem na rijeci Hevaru, otvoriše se nebesa, i vidjeh utvare Božje.
And it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was in the midst of the exiles by the river Kebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw divine visions.
2 Petoga dana toga mjeseca, pete godine otkako se zarobi car Joahin,
On the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of the exile of king Jehoyachin,
3 Doðe rijeè Gospodnja Jezekilju sinu Vuzijevu, svešteniku, u zemlji Haldejskoj na rijeci Hevaru, i ondje doðe ruka Gospodnja nada nj.
Came the word of the Lord expressly unto Ezekiel the son of Buzi, the priest, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Kebar; and there came upon him there the inspiration of the Lord.
4 I vidjeh, i gle, silan vjetar dolažaše od sjevera, i velik oblak i oganj koji se razgorijevaše, i oko njega svjetlost, a isred ognja kao jaka svjetlost;
And I saw, and behold, a storm-wind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a flaming fire, and a brightness was on it round about; and out of the midst of it was like the glitter of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
5 Isred njega još kao èetiri životinje, koje na oèi bijahu nalik na èovjeka;
And out of the midst thereof [I saw] the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: They had the likeness of a man.
6 I u svake bijahu èetiri lica, i èetiri krila u svake;
And every one had four faces, and every one of them had four wings.
7 I noge im bijahu prave, a u stopalu bijahu im noge kao u teleta; i sijevahu kao uglaðena mjed.
And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot: and they sparkled like the glitter of burnished copper.
8 I ruke im bijahu èovjeèije pod krilima nad èetiri strane, i lica im i krila bijahu na èetiri strane.
And hands of man [were visible] from beneath their wings on their four sides: and their faces and their wings [were alike] on all these four.
9 Sastavljena im bijahu krila jedno s drugim; i ne okretahu se iduæi, nego svaka iðaše naprema se.
Their wings were joined one to the other: they turned not about in their going; they went every one in the direction of one of their faces.
10 I lice bijaše u sve èetiri lice èovjeèije i lice lavovo s desne strane, a s lijeve strane lice volujsko i lice orlovo u sve èetiri.
And the likeness of their faces was the face of a man; and the face of a lion, on the right side for all four of them; and the face of an ox on the left side for all four of them; and the face of an eagle for all four of them.
11 I lica im i krila bijahu razdijeljena ozgo; u svake se dva krila sastavljahu jedno s drugim, a dva pokrivahu im tijelo.
Thus were their faces: and their wings were spread out upward; every one had two joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.
12 I svaka iðaše pravo naprema se; iðahu kuda duh iðaše, i ne okretahu se iduæi.
And they went every one in the direction of one of his faces: whither the spirit was directed to go, they went; they turned not about in their going.
13 I na oèi bijahu te životinje kao živo ugljevlje, gorahu na oèi kao svijeæe; taj oganj prolažaše izmeðu životinja i svijetljaše se, i iz ognja izlažaše munja.
As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like coals of fire, burning as with the appearance of torches; this [fire] it was which passed along between the living creatures: and a brightness was about the fire, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
14 I životinje trèahu i vraæahu se kao munja.
And the living creatures ran backward and forward like the appearance of a flash of lightning.
15 I kad gledah životinje, gle, toèak jedan bijaše na zemlji uza svaku životinju prema èetiri lica njihova.
And I looked on the living creatures, and, behold, there was one wheel upon the earth close by the living creatures, by their four front faces.
16 Oblièjem i napravom bijahu toèkovi kao boje hrisolitove, i sva èetiri bijahu jednaka, i oblièjem i napravom bijahu kao da je jedan toèak u drugom.
The appearance of the wheels and their work was like the color of a chrysolite; and all four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as though it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.
17 Kad iðahu, iðahu sva èetiri svaki na svoju stranu, i iduæi ne skretahu.
Toward their four sides they went in their going: they turned not round in their going.
18 I naplaci im bijahu visoki strahota; i bijahu naplaci puni oèiju unaokolo u sva èetiri.
As for their circumferences, they were so high that they excited fear: and their felloes were full of eyes round about on all these four.
19 I kad iðahu životinje, iðahu i toèkovi uz njih; i kad se životinje podizahu od zemlje, podizahu se i toèkovi.
And when the living creatures went, the wheels went near to them: and when the living creatures lifted themselves up from the earth, the wheels lifted themselves up.
20 Kuda duh iðaše, onamo iðahu, i podizahu se toèkovi prema njima, jer duh životinjski bješe u toèkovima.
Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went; [for] thither was [their] spirit to go: and the wheels lifted themselves up at the same time with them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
21 Kad one iðahu, iðahu i oni; i kad one stajahu, stajahu i oni; i kad se one podizahu od zemlje, podizahu se i toèkovi prema njima, jer duh životinjski bješe u toèkovima.
When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those lifted themselves up from the earth, the wheels lifted themselves up at the same time with them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
22 A nad glavama životinjama bijaše kao nebo, po viðenju kao kristal, strašno, razastrto ozgo nad glavama njihovijem.
And the likeness of a vault was over the head of the living creatures, [shining] like the glitter of the purest crystal, stretched forth over their heads above.
23 A pod tijem nebom bijahu im krila pružena, jedno prema drugom, a dva krila svakoj pokrivahu tijelo.
And under the vault their wings were straight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which covered them, and every one had two, which covered them, —[namely, ] their bodies.
24 I èujah huku krila njihovijeh kad iðahu kao da bješe huka velike vode, kao glas svemoguæega i kao graja u okolu; i kad stajahu, spuštahu krila.
And I heard the sound of their wings, like the sound of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, when they went, the sound of [their] speech, as the noise of an army: when they stood still, they let down their wings.
25 I kad stavši spuštahu krila, èujaše se glas ozgo iz neba, koje bijaše nad glavama njihovijem.
And there was a voice from the vault that was over their head: when they stood still, they let down their wings.
26 I ozgo na onom nebu što im bijaše nad glavama, bijaše kao prijesto, po viðenju kao kamen safir, i na prijestolu bijaše po oblièju kao èovjek.
And above the vault that was over their head was like the appearance of a sapphire-stone, the likeness of a throne: and upon the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.
27 I vidjeh kao jaku svjetlost, i u njoj unutra kao oganj naokolo, od bedara gore, a od bedara dolje vidjeh kao oganj i svjetlost oko njega.
And I saw as if it were the glitter of amber, as the appearance of fire within it round about, from the appearance of his loins upward; and from the appearance of his loins downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about.
28 Kao duga u oblaku kad je kiša, taka na oèi bijaše svjetlost unaokolo. To bijaše viðenje slave Božje na oèima; i kad vidjeh, padoh na lice svoje, i èuh glas nekoga koji govoraše.
Like the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud on the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about: this was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard the voice of one that spoke.
