Ezekiel 11
1 Poleg tega me je duh dvignil navzgor in me privedel k vzhodnim velikim vratom Gospodove hiše, ki so gledala proti vzhodu. Glej, pri vratih velikih vrat sem zagledal petindvajset mož; med njimi sem videl Jaazanjá, Azúrjevega sina in Pelatjája, Benajájevega sina, princa ljudstva.
Moreover the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the east gate of the LORD’s house, which looks eastward. Behold, twenty-five men were at the door of the gate; and I saw among them Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
2 Potem mi je rekel: »Človeški sin, to so možje, ki snujejo vragolijo in dajejo zloben nasvet v tem mestu,
He said to me, “Son of man, these are the men who devise iniquity, and who give wicked counsel in this city;
3 ki pravijo: › To ni blizu; dajmo, gradimo hiše; to mesto je kotel in mi smo meso.‹
who say, ‘The time is not near to build houses. This is the cauldron, and we are the meat.’
4 Zato prerokuj zoper njih, prerokuj, oh človeški sin.«
Therefore prophesy against them. Prophesy, son of man.”
5 In Gospodov Duh je padel name ter mi rekel: »Govori: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Tako ste rekli, oh Izraelova hiša; kajti poznam besede, ki pridejo v vaš um, vsako izmed njih.
The LORD’s Spirit fell on me, and he said to me, “Speak, ‘The LORD says: “Thus you have said, house of Israel; for I know the things that come into your mind.
6 Pomnožili ste svoje umorjene v tem mestu in njegove ulice ste napolnili z umorjenimi.‹
You have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled its streets with the slain.”
7 Zato tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Vaši umorjeni, ki ste jih položili v njegovi sredi, oni so meso in to mesto je kotel, toda jaz vas bom privedel iz njegove srede.
“‘Therefore the Lord GOD says: “Your slain whom you have laid in the middle of it, they are the meat, and this is the cauldron; but you will be brought out of the middle of it.
8 Bali ste se meča; pa bom nad vas privedel meč, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.
You have feared the sword; and I will bring the sword on you,” says the Lord GOD.
9 ›Privedel vas bom iz njegove srede in vas izročil v roke tujcem in med vami bom izvršil sodbe.
“I will bring you out of the middle of it, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
10 Pod mečem boste padli; sodil vas bom na Izraelovi meji, in spoznali boste, da jaz sem Gospod.
You will fall by the sword. I will judge you in the border of Israel. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
11 To mesto ne bo vaš kotel niti ne boste meso v njegovi sredi; temveč vas bom jaz sodil na Izraelovi meji
This will not be your cauldron, neither will you be the meat in the middle of it. I will judge you in the border of Israel.
12 in spoznali boste, da jaz sem Gospod, kajti niste živeli po mojih zakonih niti izvrševali mojih sodb, temveč ste počeli po navadah poganov, ki so naokoli vas.‹«
You will know that I am the LORD, for you have not walked in my statutes. You have not executed my ordinances, but have done after the ordinances of the nations that are around you.”’”
13 In pripetilo se je, ko sem prerokoval, da je Benajájev sin Pelatjája umrl. Potem sem padel na svoj obraz in jokal z močnim glasom ter rekel: »Ah, Gospod Bog! Ali hočeš narediti popoln konec Izraelovemu preostanku?«
When I prophesied, Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then I fell down on my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, “Ah Lord GOD! Will you make a full end of the remnant of Israel?”
14 Ponovno je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
15 »Človeški sin, tvoji bratje, celó tvoji bratje, možje tvojega sorodstva in vsa celotna Izraelova hiša, ali so oni tisti, ki so jim prebivalci [prestolnice] Jeruzalem rekli: ›Spravite se daleč od Gospoda. Nam je dana ta dežela v posest.‹
“Son of man, your brothers, even your brothers, the men of your relatives, and all the house of Israel, all of them, are the ones to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, ‘Go far away from the LORD. This land has been given to us for a possession.’
16 Zato reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Čeprav sem jih vrgel daleč proč med pogane in čeprav sem jih razkropil med dežele, vendar jim bom kakor majhno svetišče v deželah, v katere bodo prišli.‹
“Therefore say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Whereas I have removed them far off among the nations, and whereas I have scattered them among the countries, yet I will be to them a sanctuary for a little while in the countries where they have come.”’
17 Zato reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Jaz vas bom celo zbral izmed ljudstev in vas zbral izmed dežel, kamor ste bili razkropljeni in jaz vam bom dal Izraelovo deželo.
“Therefore say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “I will gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.”
18 In prišli bodo tja in od tam bodo odvzeli vse njene ostudne stvari in vse njene ogabnosti.
“‘They will come there, and they will take away all its detestable things and all its abominations from there.
19 Dal jim bom eno srce in znotraj vas bom položil novega duha; in odvzel bom kamnito srce iz njihovega mesa in jim dal meseno srce,
I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them. I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh,
20 da se bodo lahko ravnali po mojih zakonih in se držali mojih odredb in jih izvajali in bodo moje ljudstvo in jaz bom njihov Bog.
that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them. They will be my people, and I will be their God.
21 Toda glede tistih, čigar srce hodi za srcem njihovih ostudnih stvari in njihovih ogabnosti, bom njihovo pot poplačal na njihovih lastnih glavah, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.«
But as for them whose heart walks after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will bring their way on their own heads,’ says the Lord GOD.”
22 Potem so kerubi dvignili svoje peruti in kolesa poleg njih; in slava Izraelovega Boga je bila zgoraj nad njimi.
Then the cherubim lifted up their wings, and the wheels were beside them. The glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
23 In Gospodova slava se je vzdignila iz srede mesta in se ustavila nad goro, ki je na vzhodni strani mesta.
The LORD’s glory went up from the middle of the city, and stood on the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
24 Potem me je duh vzel gor in me v videnju, po Božjem Duhu, privedel v Kaldejo, k tem iz ujetništva. Tako se je videnje, ki sem ga videl, dvignilo od mene.
The Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to the captives. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.
25 Potem sem tistim iz ujetništva, spregovoril vse stvari, ki mi jih je Gospod pokazal.
Then I spoke to the captives all the things that the LORD had shown me.
