< Ezekiel 33 >
1 Ponovno je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
Again the word of YHWH came unto me, saying,
2 »Človeški sin, spregovori otrokom svojega ljudstva in jim reci: ›Ko privedem meč nad deželo, če ljudstvo dežele vzame človeka iz svojih obal in ga postavi za svojega stražarja.
Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman:
3 Če ta zatrobi na šofar in posvari ljudstvo, kadar vidi nad deželo prihajati meč;
If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;
4 potem kdorkoli sliši zvok šofarja in ne sprejme svarila; če pride meč in ga vzame, bo njegova kri na njegovi lastni glavi.
Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.
5 Slišal je zvok šofarja in ni sprejel svarila; njegova kri bo nad njim. Toda kdor sprejme svarilo, bo rešil svojo dušo.
He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul.
6 Toda če stražar vidi prihajati meč, pa ne zatrobi na šofar in ljudstvo ni posvarjeno, če pride meč in vzame kateregakoli človeka izmed njih, je ta odvzet v svoji krivičnosti; toda njegovo kri bom zahteval iz stražarjeve roke.
But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand.
7 Tako sem tebe, oh človeški sin, postavil [za] stražarja Izraelovi hiši; zato boš slišal besedo pri mojih ustih in jih posvaril v mojem imenu.
So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.
8 Ko rečem zlobnemu: ›Oh zlobni človek, zagotovo boš umrl; ‹ če ne spregovoriš, da zlobnega posvariš pred njegovo potjo, bo ta zloben človek umrl v svoji krivičnosti, toda njegovo kri bom zahteval pri tvoji roki.
When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou shalt surely die; if thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
9 Vendar če posvariš zlobnega o njegovi poti, da se odvrne od nje; če se ta ne odvrne iz svoje poti, bo umrl v svoji krivičnosti; toda ti si rešil svojo dušo.
Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to turn from it; if he do not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
10 Zato, oh ti, človeški sin, spregovori Izraelovi hiši: ›Tako govorite, rekoč: ›Če so naši prestopki in naši grehi nad nami in v njih hiramo, kako bi potem živeli?‹
Therefore, O thou son of man, speak unto the house of Israel; Thus ye speak, saying, If our transgressions and our sins be upon us, and we pine away in them, how should we then live?
11 Reci jim: › Kakor jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, ›nobenega zadovoljstva nimam v smrti zlobnega; temveč, da se zlobni odvrne od svoje poti in živi. Obrnite se, obrnite se od svojih zlih poti; kajti zakaj hočete umreti, oh hiša Izraelova?‹
Say unto them, As I live, saith the Sovereign YHWH, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
12 Zato ti, človeški sin, reci otrokom svojega ljudstva: ›Pravičnost pravičnega ga ne bo rešila na dan njegovega prestopka. Glede zlobnosti zlobnega, on s tem ne bo padel na dan, ko se obrne od svoje zlobnosti; niti pravični ne bo zmožen živeti po svoji pravičnosti na dan, ko greši.
Therefore, thou son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression: as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall the righteous be able to live for his righteousness in the day that he sinneth.
13 Ko bom rekel pravičnemu, da bo zagotovo živel; če ta zaupa svoji lastni pravičnosti in zagreši krivičnost, se vse njegove pravičnosti ne bo spominjalo; toda zaradi svoje krivičnosti, ki jo je zagrešil, bo zaradi nje umrl.‹
When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it.
14 Ponovno, kadar rečem zlobnemu: ›Ti boš zagotovo umrl; ‹ če se ta obrne od svojega greha in dela to, kar je zakonito in pravilno;
Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;
15 če zlobni povrne jamstvo, ponovno da, kar je naropal, se ravna po zakonih življenja, ne da bi zagrešil krivičnost; zagotovo bo živel, ne bo umrl.
If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die.
16 Nobeden izmed njegovih grehov, ki jih je zagrešil, mu ne bo omenjen. Storil je to, kar je zakonito in pravilno; zagotovo bo živel.‹
None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned unto him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.
17 Vendar otroci tvojega ljudstva pravijo: ›Gospodova pot ni enakovredna.‹ Toda kar se tiče njih, njihova pot ni enakovredna.
Yet the children of thy people say, The way of YHWH is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal.
18 Ko se pravični obrne od svoje pravičnosti in grešno zagreši krivičnost, bo s tem torej umrl.
When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall even die thereby.
19 Toda če se zlobni odvrne od svoje zlobnosti in počne to, kar je zakonito in pravilno, bo s tem živel.
But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.
20 Vendar vi pravite: ›Gospodova pot ni enakovredna.‹ Oh vi, hiša Izraelova, vsakogar bom sodil po njegovih poteh.‹«
Yet ye say, The way of YHWH is not equal. O ye house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.
21 In pripetilo se je v dvanajstem letu našega ujetništva, v desetem mesecu, na peti dan meseca, da je tisti, ki je pobegnil iz [prestolnice] Jeruzalem, prišel k meni, rekoč: »Mesto je udarjeno.«
And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth month, in the fifth day of the month, that one that had escaped out of Jerusalem came unto me, saying, The city is smitten.
22 Torej Gospodova roka je bila nad menoj zvečer, prej, preden je prišel ta, ki je pobegnil. Odprl je moja usta, dokler ni oni zjutraj prišel k meni; in moja usta so bila odprta in nisem bil več nem.
Now the hand of YHWH was upon me in the evening, afore he that was escaped came; and had opened my mouth, until he came to me in the morning; and my mouth was opened, and I was no more dumb.
23 Potem je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
Then the word of YHWH came unto me, saying,
24 »Človeški sin, tisti, ki poseljujejo opustošenosti dežele Izrael, govorijo, rekoč: ›Abraham je bil en in je podedoval deželo, toda nas je mnogo. Dežela nam je dana v dediščino.‹
Son of man, they that inhabit those wastes of the land of Israel speak, saying, Abraham was one, and he inherited the land: but we are many; the land is given us for inheritance.
25 Zato jim reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Vi jeste s krvjo in svoje oči povzdigujete k svojim malikom in prelivate kri; in ali boste vzeli v last deželo?
Wherefore say unto them, Thus saith the Sovereign YHWH; Ye eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes toward your idols, and shed blood: and shall ye possess the land?
26 Stojite na svojem meču, počnete ogabnost in omadežujete, vsak ženo svojega soseda; in ali boste vzeli v last deželo?‹
Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye defile every one his neighbour's wife: and shall ye possess the land?
27 Tako jim reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: › Kakor jaz živim, zagotovo bodo tisti, ki so v opustošenostih, padli pod mečem in kdor je na odprtem polju, ga bom izročil živalim, da bo požrt in tisti, ki so v utrdbah in votlinah, bodo umrli od kužne bolezni.
Say thou thus unto them, Thus saith the Sovereign YHWH; As I live, surely they that are in the wastes shall fall by the sword, and him that is in the open field will I give to the beasts to be devoured, and they that be in the forts and in the caves shall die of the pestilence.
28 Kajti jaz bom deželo naredil najbolj zapuščeno in pomp njene moči bo prenehal; in gore Izraelove bodo zapuščene, da nihče ne bo šel čeznje.
For I will lay the land most desolate, and the pomp of her strength shall cease; and the mountains of Israel shall be desolate, that none shall pass through.
29 Potem bodo vedeli, da jaz sem Gospod, ko sem deželo naredil najbolj zapuščeno zaradi vseh njihovih ogabnosti, ki so jih zagrešili.
Then shall they know that I am YHWH, when I have laid the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed.
30 Tudi ti, človeški sin, otroci tvojega ljudstva še vedno govorijo zoper tebe pri zidovih in v vratih hiš in drug drugemu govorijo, vsak svojemu bratu, rekoč: ›Pridi, prosim te in poslušaj, kakšna je beseda, ki prihaja od Gospoda.‹
Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from YHWH.
31 In k tebi pridejo kakor prihajajo ljudje in sedijo pred teboj kakor moje ljudstvo in slišijo tvoje besede, toda nočejo jih izpolnjevati, kajti s svojimi usti so pokazali mnogo ljubezni, toda njihovo srce gre za njihovo pohlepnostjo.
And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee as my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they shew much love, but their heart goeth after their covetousness.
32 In glej, ti si jim kakor zelo očarljiva pesem nekoga, ki ima prijeten glas in lahko dobro igra na glasbilo, kajti slišijo tvoje besede, toda po njih se ne ravnajo.
And, lo, thou art unto them as a very lovely song of one that hath a pleasant voice, and can play well on an instrument: for they hear thy words, but they do them not.
33 In ko se to zgodi (glej, to bo prišlo), potem bodo vedeli, da je bil med njimi prerok.‹«
And when this cometh to pass, (lo, it will come, ) then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them.
