Ezekiel 35

1 Poleg tega je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:

Yahweh gave me another message. He said,

2 »Človeški sin, naravnaj svoj obraz proti gori Seír in prerokuj zoper njo

“You human, turn toward Edom and prophesy what will happen to its people. Say that this is what Yahweh says to them:

3 ter ji reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Glej, oh gora Seír, jaz sem zoper tebe in zoper tebe bom iztegnil svojo roko in naredil te bom najbolj zapuščeno.

‘You who live near Seir Mountain [in Edom], I am opposed to you, and I will use my power [MTY] to strike you and cause your country to become a wasteland.

4 Tvoja mesta bom opustošil in zapuščena boš in vedela boš, da jaz sem Gospod.

I will cause your country to be ruined and desolate. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].

5 Ker si imela neprestano sovraštvo in si s silo meča prelila kri Izraelovih otrok v času njihove katastrofe, v času, ko je njihova krivičnost imela konec.

You have always been enemies of the Israeli people. You [rejoiced] when they experienced a great disaster: [their enemies attacked them with] swords, when I punished them [for the sins that they had committed].

6 Zato kakor jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, ›te bom pripravil za kri in kri te bo zasledovala. Ker nisi sovražila krvi, te bo celo kri zasledovala.

Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, I will allow [your enemies] to slaughter [MTY] you and continue to slaughter you. You were happy when [LIT] others were slaughtered;

7 Tako bom goro Seír naredil najbolj zapuščeno in iz nje iztrebil tistega, ki gre skozi in tistega, ki se vrača.

so I will cause Seir Mountain to be abandoned/deserted, and I will get rid of anyone who enters it or leaves it.

8 Njene gore bom napolnil z njenimi umorjenimi možmi. Na tvojih hribih in v tvojih dolinah in v vseh tvojih rekah bodo padli, ki so umorjeni z mečem.

I will cause your mountains to be filled with [the corpses of] those who have been killed. The corpses of those who have been killed by [your enemies’] swords will lie on your hills and in your valleys and in all your ravines.

9 Naredil te bom za neprestana opustošenja in tvoja mesta se ne bodo vrnila. In spoznali boste, da jaz sem Gospod.‹

I will cause your land to be deserted forever. No one will live in your towns again. When that happens, you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].

10 Ker si rekla: ›Ta dva naroda in ti dve deželi bosta moji in mi bomo to vzeli v last; medtem ko je bil tam Gospod.

You people said, “Israel and Judah will become ours. We will take over their territory!” You said that even though I, Yahweh, was still there [and protecting them].

11 Zatorej, kakor jaz živim, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, ›storil bom celo glede na tvojo jezo in glede na tvojo zavist, ki si jo uporabila iz svojega sovraštva zoper njih; in jaz se bom med njimi dal spoznati, ko sem te sodil.

Therefore, I, Yahweh the Lord, declare that as surely as I am alive, I will punish [MTY] you for being angry with my people, envying them, and hating them.

12 Vedela boš, da jaz sem Gospod in da sem slišal vsa tvoja bogokletja, ki si jih govorila zoper Izraelove gore, rekoč: ›Zapuščene so, dane so nam, da jih použijemo.‹

Then you will know that I, Yahweh, have heard all the disgusting things that you have said about the mountains in Israel. You said that they have been ruined/devastated, and that they have been given to you to occupy [MET].

13 Tako ste se s svojimi usti bahali zoper mene in pomnožili svoje besede zoper mene. Jaz sem jih slišal. ‹

When you insulted me, I heard all that you said about me.

14 Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Ko se vsa zemlja razveseljuje, bom jaz tebe naredil zapuščeno.

So this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: You people who live on Seir Mountain and in all the other places in Edom, when I cause your land to become desolate, everyone in the entire world will rejoice.

15 Kakor si se ti razveseljeval ob dediščini Izraelove hiše, ker je bila zapuščena, tako bom jaz storil tebi. Zapuščena boš, oh gora Seír in ves Edóm, celó ves. In spoznali bodo, da jaz sem Gospod.‹«

You were happy when the land [MTY] of the Israeli people became desolate, so I will cause your land to become desolate. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
