Ezekiel 14
1 Potem so prišli k meni nekateri izmed Izraelovih starešin in se usedli pred menoj.
Some of the elders of Israel came to me and sat before me.
2 In k meni je prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
3 »Človeški sin, ti možje so si v srcih postavljali malike in so si pred svoj obraz postavljali kamen spotike svoje krivičnosti; ali naj bi me oni potem sploh spraševali?«
“Son of man, these men have taken their idols into their hearts and have put the stumbling block of their iniquity before their own faces. Should I be inquired of at all by them?
4 Zato jim govori in jim povej: »Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Vsak mož iz Izraelove hiše, ki si v svojem srcu postavlja malike in pred svoj obraz polaga kamen spotike svoje krivičnosti in prihaja k preroku; jaz, Gospod, bom odgovoril tistemu, ki prihaja, glede na množico njegovih malikov,
Therefore announce this to them and say to them, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Every man of the house of Israel who takes his idols into his heart, or who puts the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and who then comes to a prophet—I, Yahweh, will answer him according to the number of his idols.
5 da bi Izraelovo hišo lahko ujel v njihovem lastnem srcu, ker so se zaradi svojih malikov vsi odtujili od mene.‹
I will do this so that I may take back the house of Israel in their hearts that have been driven far from me through their idols.'
6 Zato reci Izraelovi hiši: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Pokesajte se in odvrnite se od svojih malikov; odvrnite svoje obraze od vseh svojih ogabnosti.‹
Therefore say to the house of Israel, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Repent and turn away from your idols! Turn back your faces from all your abominations.
7 Kajti vsakomur izmed Izraelove hiše, ali izmed tujca, ki začasno biva v Izraelu, ki se ločuje od mene in si v svojem srcu postavlja svoje malike in polaga kamen spotike svoje krivičnosti pred svoj obraz in prihaja k preroku, da bi od njega povprašal glede mene, mu bom jaz, Gospod, sam odgovoril.
For every one from the house of Israel and every one of the foreigners staying in Israel who deserts me, who takes his idols into his heart and puts the stumbling block of his iniquity before his own face, and who then comes to a prophet to seek me—I, Yahweh, will answer him myself.
8 Svoj obraz bom naravnal zoper tega moža in naredil ga bom za znamenje in pregovor in odrezal ga bom iz srede svojega ljudstva; in spoznali boste, da jaz sem Gospod.
So I will set my face against that man and make him a sign and a proverb, for I will cut him off from the midst of my people, and you will know that I am Yahweh.
9 Če pa je prerok zaveden, ko je govoril besedo, sem jaz, Gospod, zavedel tega preroka in jaz bom iztegnil svojo roko nanj in ga uničim iz srede svojega ljudstva Izraela.
If a prophet is deceived and speaks a message, then I, Yahweh, will deceive that prophet; I will reach out with my hand against him and destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
10 Nosila bosta kazen svoje krivičnosti. Kazen preroka bo celo kakor kazen tistega, ki poizveduje k njemu;
They will carry their own iniquity; the iniquity of the prophet will be the same as the iniquity of the one who inquires from him.
11 da Izraelova hiša ne bo več zašla od mene niti ne bo več oskrunjena z vsemi svojimi prestopki; temveč da bodo lahko moje ljudstvo in bom jaz lahko njihov Bog, govori Gospod Bog.‹«
Because of this, the house of Israel will no longer wander away from following me nor defile themselves any longer through all their transgressions. They will be my people, and I will be their God—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
12 Gospodova beseda je prišla ponovno k meni, rekoč:
Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
13 »Človeški sin, kadar dežela greši zoper mene z mučnimi prekršitvami, takrat bom nadnjo iztegnil svojo roko in zlomil bom njeno oporo kruha in nadnjo bom poslal lakoto in iz nje bom iztrebil človeka in žival.
“Son of man, when a land sins against me by committing a sin so that I reach out with my hand against it and break the staff of its bread, and send out over it a famine and cut off both man and beast from the land;
14 Čeprav bi bili v njej ti trije možje: Noe, Daniel in Job, bi s svojo pravičnostjo rešili zgolj svoje lastne duše, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.
then even if these three men—Noah, Daniel, and Job—were in the land's midst, they could only rescue their own lives by their righteousness—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
15 ›Če povzročim ogabnim živalim, da gredo skozi deželo, jo oplenijo tako, da je ta zapuščena, da zaradi živali noben človek ne bo mogel iti skoznjo;
If I send evil beasts through the land and make it barren so that it becomes a wasteland where no man may pass through because of the beasts,
16 čeprav bi bili ti trije možje v njej, kakor jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, ›ne bodo osvobodili niti sinov niti hčera; samo oni sami bodo osvobojeni, toda dežela bo zapuščena.
then even if these same three men were in it—as I live, declares the Lord Yahweh—they would not be able to rescue even their own sons or daughters; only their own lives would be rescued, but the land would become a wasteland.
17 Ali če privedem meč nad to deželo in rečem: ›Meč, pojdi skozi to deželo; ‹ tako, da iz nje iztrebim ljudi in živali;
Or if I bring a sword against that land and say, 'Sword, go through the land and cut off both man and beast from it',
18 čeprav bi bili ti trije možje v njej, kakor jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, ›ne bi osvobodili niti sinov niti hčera; samo oni sami bi bili osvobojeni.
then even if these three men were in the midst of the land—as I live, declares the Lord Yahweh—they would not be able to rescue even their own sons or daughters; only their own lives would be rescued.
19 Ali če pošljem v to deželo kužno bolezen in če nanjo v krvi izlijem svojo razjarjenost, da iztrebim iz nje človeka in žival;
Or if I send a plague against this land and pour out my fury against it through bloodshed, in order to cut off both man and beast,
20 čeprav bi bili v njej Noe, Daniel in Job, kakor jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, ›ne bi osvobodili niti sinov niti hčera, temveč bodo po svoji pravičnosti osvobodili zgolj svoje lastne duše.‹
then even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were in that land—as I live, declares the Lord Yahweh—they would not be able to rescue even their own sons or daughters; only their own lives would be rescued by their righteousness.
21 Kajti tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Koliko bolj, ko pošljem svoje štiri boleče sodbe nad Jeruzalem: meč, lakoto in ogabno zver in kužno bolezen, da iztrebim iz nje ljudi in živali?
For the Lord Yahweh says this: I will certainly make things worse by sending my four punishments—famine, sword, wild animals, and plague—against Jerusalem to cut off both man and beast from her.
22 In vendar, glejte, bo tam ostal ostanek, ki bo izpeljan, tako sinov kakor hčera. Glejte, prišli bodo k vam in videli boste njihovo pot in njihova dejanja in potolaženi boste glede zla, ki sem ga privedel nad Jeruzalem, celó glede vsega, kar sem privedel nadenj.
Yet, behold! A remnant will be left in her, survivors who will go out with sons and daughters. Behold! They will go out to you, and you will see their ways and actions and be comforted concerning the punishment that I have sent to Jerusalem, and about everything else that I have sent against the land.
23 In potolažili vas bodo, ko boste videli njihove poti in njihova dejanja, in spoznali boste, da nisem brez vzroka storil vsega, kar sem storil v njem, ‹ govori Gospod Bog.‹«
The survivors will comfort you when you see their ways and their actions, so you will know all these things I have done against her, that I have not done them in vain!—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
