< Ezekiel 38 >
1 In k meni je prišla Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
The LORD’s word 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 your face toward Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, 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, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I am against you, Gog, prince of Rosh, 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:
I will turn you around, and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you out, with all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed in full armor, a great company with buckler and shield, all of them handling swords;
5 Perzija, Etiopija in Libija z njimi; vsi izmed njih s ščitom in čelado:
Persia, Cush, and Put with them, all of them with shield and helmet;
6 Gomer in vse njegove čete; hiša Togarmá od severnih četrti in vse njegove čete in mnogo ljudstva s teboj.
Gomer, and all his hordes; the house of Togarmah in the uttermost parts of the north, and all his hordes—even many peoples with you.
7 Bodi pripravljen in pripravi zase, ti in vsa tvoja skupina, ki so zbrani k tebi in ti jim bodi stražar.
“‘“Be prepared, yes, prepare yourself, you, and all your companies who are assembled to you, and be a guard to them.
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 you will be visited. In the latter years you will come into the land that is brought back from the sword, that is gathered out of many peoples, on the mountains of Israel, which have been a continual waste; but it is brought out of the peoples and they will 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.‹
You will ascend. You will come like a storm. You will be like a cloud to cover the land, you and all your hordes, and many peoples with you.”
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.‹
“‘The Lord GOD says: “It will happen in that day that things will come into your mind, and you will devise an evil plan.
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,
You will say, ‘I will go up to the land of unwalled villages. I will go to those who are at rest, who 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 the plunder and to take prey; to turn your hand against the waste places that are inhabited, and against the people who are gathered out of the nations, who have gotten livestock and goods, who dwell in the middle 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, Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all its young lions, will ask you, ‘Have you come to take the plunder? Have you assembled your company to take the prey, to carry away silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to take great plunder?’”’
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, son of man, prophesy, and tell Gog, ‘The Lord GOD says: “In that day when my people Israel dwells securely, will you not know 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
You will come from your place out of the uttermost parts of the north, you, and many peoples with you, all of them riding on horses, a great company and a mighty army.
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.‹
You will come up against my people Israel as a cloud to cover the land. It will happen in the latter days that I will bring you against my land, that the nations may know me when I am sanctified in you, Gog, before their eyes.”
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?
“‘The Lord GOD says: “Are you he of whom I spoke in old time by my servants the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days for years that I would bring you 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.
It will happen in that day, when Gog comes against Eretz-Israel,” says the Lord GOD, “that my wrath will come up into my nostrils.
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 and in the fire of my wrath I have spoken. Surely in that day there will be a great shaking in Eretz-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 fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, the animals of the field, all creeping things who creep on the earth, and all the men who are on the surface of the earth will shake at my presence. Then the mountains will be thrown down, the steep places will fall, and every wall will fall to the ground.
21 In proti njemu bom prek vseh svojih gora poklical meč, ‹ govori Gospod Bog. ›Vsakogar meč bo zoper svojega brata.
I will call for a sword against him to all my mountains,” says the Lord GOD. “Every man’s sword will be against his brother.
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.
I will enter into judgment with him with pestilence and with blood. I will rain on him, on his hordes, and on the many peoples who are with him, torrential rains with great hailstones, fire, and sulfur.
23 Tako se bom poveličal in se posvetil; in znan bom v očeh mnogih narodov in spoznali bodo, da jaz sem Gospod.‹
I will magnify myself and sanctify myself, and I will make myself known in the eyes of many nations. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”’
