< Ezekiel 38 >
1 In k meni je prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:
2 »Človeški sin, naravnaj svoj obraz zoper Gog, deželo Magóg, glavnega princa Mešeha in Tubála in prerokuj zoper njega
Son of man, set thy face against Gog, of the land of Magog, prince of Resh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him,
3 in reci: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Glej, jaz sem zoper tebe, oh Gog, glavni princ Mešeha in Tubála.
and say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, prince of Resh, Meshech, and Tubal!
4 Obrnil te bom nazaj in vtaknil kavlje v tvoje čeljusti in te privedel naprej in vso tvojo vojsko, konje in konjenike, vse izmed njih oblečene z vsemi vrstami bojne opreme, celo veliko družbo z majhnimi ščiti in ščiti; vsi izmed njih rokujejo z meči:
And I will turn thee about, and put rings into thy jaws; and I will bring thee forth, thee and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed in gorgeous apparel, even a great multitude with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords.
5 Perzija, Etiopija in Libija z njimi; vsi izmed njih s ščitom in čelado:
Persians, Ethiopians, and Lybians are with them, all of them with shields and helmets.
6 Gomer in vse njegove čete; hiša Togarmá od severnih četrti in vse njegove čete in mnogo ljudstva s teboj.
Gomer and all his bands, the house of Togarmah from the north quarters, and all their hosts, many nations are with thee.
7 Bodi pripravljen in pripravi zase, ti in vsa tvoja skupina, ki so zbrani k tebi in ti jim bodi stražar.
Be prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou and all thy host that are assembled unto thee, and be thou their leader!
8 Po mnogih dneh boš obiskan. V zadnjih letih boš prišel v deželo, ki je privedena nazaj pred mečem in je zbrana izmed številnih ljudstev zoper Izraelove gore, ki so bile vedno opustošene, toda ta je privedena izmed narodov in vsi izmed njih bodo varno prebivali.
After many days shalt thou be appointed over them. In the latter years shalt thou come into a land that is brought back from the sword, gathered out of many nations upon the mountains of Israel, which had been long desolate; but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell securely, all of them.
9 Povzpel se boš in prišel kakor vihar, podoben boš oblaku, da pokriješ deželo, ti in vse tvoje čete in mnogo ljudstev s teboj.‹
Thou shalt go up like a storm, thou shalt come like a cloud, to cover the land, thou and all thy bands, and many nations with thee.
10 Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Zgodilo se bo tudi to, da bodo ob istem času v tvoj um prišle stvari, ti pa boš mislil zlo misel.‹
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: At the same time shall thoughts come into thy mind, and thou shalt meditate an evil design,
11 Rekel boš: ›Šel bom gor k deželi neobzidanih vasi; šel bom k tem, ki so v miru, ki varno prebivajo, vsi izmed njih prebivajo zunaj zidov in nimajo niti zapahov niti velikih vrat,
and shalt say, “I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell securely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 da vzamem ukradeno blago in da vzamem plen; da svojo roko obrnem nad zapuščene kraje, ki so sedaj naseljeni in nad ljudstva, ki so zbrana izmed narodov, ki so pridobili živino in dobrine, ki prebivajo v sredi dežele.‹
to take a spoil and to divide a prey, to turn my hand against the desolated places that have become inhabited, and against a people gathered out of the nations, possessing cattle and goods, dwelling in the heights of the earth.”
13 Saba in Dedán in trgovci iz Taršíša, z vsemi njihovimi mladimi levi, ti bodo govorili: ›Ali si prišel, da vzameš plen? Ali si zbral svojo družbo, da vzameš plen? Da odneseš srebro in zlato, da odneseš govedo in dobrine, da vzameš velik plen?‹
Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, and all the chiefs thereof, shall say to thee, “Art thou come to take a spoil? Hast thou gathered thy company to divide a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, and to divide great spoil?”
14 Zatorej, človeški sin, prerokuj in reci Gogu: ›Tako govori Gospod Bog: ›Na tisti dan, ko bo moje ljudstvo Izrael varno prebivalo, mar tega ne boš vedel?
Therefore prophesy, son of man, and say to Gog, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: In that day when my people Israel dwelleth securely, thou shalt observe it,
15 In prišel boš iz svojega kraja, iz severnih delov, ti in številna ljudstva s teboj, vsi izmed njih bodo jahali na konjih, velika družba in mogočna vojska
and thou shalt come up from the regions of the North, thou and many nations with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty host;
16 in prišel boš gor zoper moje ljudstvo Izraela kakor oblak, da pokriješ deželo; to bo v zadnjih dneh in privedel te bom zoper mojo deželo, da me bodo pogani lahko spoznali, ko bom posvečen v tebi, oh Gog, pred njihovimi očmi.‹
thou shalt come up against my people Israel like a cloud, to cover the land; in the latter days it shall come to pass, that I will bring thee against my land, that the nations may know me, when I shall be sanctified in regard to thee, before their eyes, O Gog!
17 Tako govori Gospod Bog: › Ali si ti tisti, o katerem sem govoril v starih časih po svojih služabnikih, Izraelovih prerokih, ki so prerokovali v tistih dneh mnoga leta, da te bom privedel zoper njih?
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Art thou not he of whom I spoke in old time by my servants, the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days and years, that I would bring thee against them?
18 In zgodilo se bo ob istem času, ko bo proti Izraelovi deželi prišel Gog, ‹ govori Gospod Bog, › da bo na moj obraz prišla moja razjarjenost.
And it shall come to pass in that day, in the day when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord Jehovah, that my anger shall ascend in fury.
19 Kajti v svojem ljubosumju in v ognju svojega besa sem govoril: ›Zagotovo bo na ta dan v Izraelovi deželi veliko tresenje;
For in my jealousy, in the fire of my wrath, have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel,
20 tako da bodo ribe morja in perjad neba in poljske živali in vse plazeče stvari, ki se plazijo po zemlji in vsi ljudje, ki so na obličju zemlje, trepetali ob moji prisotnosti in gore bodo zrušene in strmi kraji bodo padli in vsak zid bo padel na tla.‹
so that the fishes of the sea, and the birds of the heavens, and the beasts of the field; and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the ground, and all the men that are upon the face of the earth, shall shake at my presence; and the mountains shall be thrown down, and the steep places shall fall, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21 In proti njemu bom prek vseh svojih gora poklical meč, ‹ govori Gospod Bog. ›Vsakogar meč bo zoper svojega brata.
And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Lord Jehovah, and they shall all turn their swords against each other,
22 In jaz bom navajal dokaze zoper njega s kužno boleznijo in s krvjo, in deževal bom nanj in na njegove čete in na mnoga ljudstva, ki so z njim, preplavljajoč dež in velika zrna toče, ogenj in žveplo.
And I will contend against him with pestilence, and with blood; and overflowing showers, and great hailstones, fire and brimstone, will I rain upon him and his hosts, and the many nations that are with him.
23 Tako se bom poveličal in se posvetil; in znan bom v očeh mnogih narodov in spoznali bodo, da jaz sem Gospod.‹
Thus will I show myself in my greatness and glory, and make myself known before the eyes of many nations, and they shall know that I am Jehovah.
