Ezekiel 2

1 Rekel mi je: »Človeški sin, vstani na svoja stopala in spregovoril ti bom.«

This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And I saw and fell upon my face, and heard the voice of one speaking: and he said to me, Son of man, stand upon your feet, and I will speak to you.

2 Ko mi je spregovoril, je vame vstopil duh in me postavil na moja stopala, da sem slišal tistega, ki mi je spregovoril.

And the Spirit came upon me, and took me up, and raised me, and set me on my feet: and I heard him speaking to me.

3 Rekel mi je: »Človeški sin, pošiljam te k Izraelovim otrokom, k upornemu narodu, ki se je uprl zoper mene. Oni in njihovi očetje so se pregrešili zoper mene, celó do točno tega dne.

And he said to me, Son of Man, I send you forth to the house of Israel, them that provoke me; who have provoked me, they and their fathers to this day.

4 Kajti predrzni otroci so in trdega srca in jaz te pošljem k njim, ti pa jim boš rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog.‹

And you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord.

5 In oni, bodisi bodo slišali, bodisi se bodo zadržali (kajti uporna hiša so ), bodo vendar vedeli, da je bil med njimi prerok.

Whether then indeed they shall hear or fear, (for it is a provoking house, ) yet they shall know that you are a prophet in the midst of them.

6 Ti pa, človeški sin, se jih ne boj niti se ne boj njihovih besed, čeprav bodo s teboj osat in trnje in prebivaš med škorpijoni. Ne boj se njihovih besed niti ne bodi zaprepaden ob njihovih pogledih, čeprav so uporna hiša.

And you, son of man, fear them not, nor be dismayed at their face; (for they will madden and will rise up against you round about, and you dwell in the midst of scorpions): be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their countenance, for it is a provoking house.

7 Govoril jim boš moje besede, bodisi bodo slišali, bodisi se bodo zadržali, kajti najbolj uporni so.

And you shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear or fear: for it is a provoking house.

8 Toda ti, človeški sin, poslušaj, kaj ti povem: ›Ne bodi uporen kakor ta uporna hiša. Odpri svoja usta in pojej, kar ti dajem.‹«

And you, son of man, hear him that speaks to you; be not you provoking, as the provoking house: open your mouth, and eat what I give you.

9 Ko sem pogledal, glej, je bila k meni poslana roka, in glej, zvitek knjige je bil v njej

And I looked, and behold, a hand stretched out to me, and in it a volume of a book.

10 in razprostrl ga je pred menoj. Popisan je bil znotraj in zunaj in na njem so bile zapisane žalostinke, žalovanja in gorje.

And he unrolled it before me: and in it the front and the back were written [upon]: and there was written [in it] Lamentation, and mournful song, and woe.
