Ezekiel 5

1 'And thou, son of man, take to thee a sharp weapon, the barber's razor thou dost take to thee, and thou hast caused [it] to pass over thy head, and over thy beard, and thou hast taken to thee weighing scales, and apportioned them.

»Ti pa, človeški sin, si vzemi oster nož, vzemi si brivčevo britev in ji povzroči, da gre čez tvojo glavo in po tvoji bradi. Potem si vzemi tehtnico, da stehtaš in razdeliš lase.

2 A third part with fire thou dost burn in the midst of the city, at the fulness of the days of the siege; and thou hast taken the third part, thou dost smite with a weapon round about it; and the third part thou dost scatter to the wind, and a weapon I draw out after them.

Z ognjem boš sežgal tretjino v sredi mesta, ko se dopolnijo dnevi obleganja. Vzel boš tretjino in okoli nje udarjal z nožem. Tretjino boš raztrosil v vetru, jaz pa bom za njimi izvlekel meč.

3 And thou hast taken thence a few in number — and hast bound them in thy skirts;

Od teh boš vzel malo po številu in jih povezal v krajce svojega oblačila.

4 and of them thou dost take again, and hast cast them unto the midst of the fire, and hast burned them in the fire — out of it cometh forth a fire unto all the house of Israel.

Potem ponovno vzemi od teh in jih vrzi v sredo ognja in jih sežgi v ognju, kajti od teh bo prišel ogenj v vso Izraelovo hišo.«

5 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: this [is] Jerusalem, In the midst of the nations I have set her, And round about her [are] the lands.

Tako govori Gospod Bog: »To je [prestolnica] Jeruzalem. Postavil sem jo v sredo narodov in dežel, ki so naokoli nje.

6 And she changeth My judgments into wickedness more than the nations, And My statutes more than the lands that [are] round about her, For against My judgments they have kicked, And My statutes — they have not walked in them.

Moje sodbe je spremenila v zlobnost bolj kakor narodi in moje zakone bolj kakor dežele, ki so okoli nje, kajti zavrnili so moje sodbe in moje zakone; niso hodili v njih.«

7 Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of your multiplying above the nations that [are] around you, In My statutes ye have not walked, And My judgments ye have not done, According to the judgments of the nations That [are] round about you ye have not done.

Zato tako govori Gospod Bog: »Ker ste se pomnožili bolj kakor narodi, ki so okoli vas in niste hodili po mojih zakonih niti se niste držali mojih sodb niti niste delali glede na sodbe narodov, ki so naokoli vas, «

8 Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against thee, even I, And I have done in thy midst judgments, Before the eyes of the nations.

zato tako govori Gospod Bog: »Glej jaz, celo jaz, sem zoper tebe in v tvoji sredi bom izvršil sodbe pred očmi narodov.

9 And I have done in thee that which I have not done, And that which I do not its like again, Because of all thine abominations.

V tebi bom storil to, česar nisem storil in ne bom več storil temu podobnega, zaradi vseh tvojih ogabnosti.

10 Therefore fathers do eat sons in thy midst, And sons eat their fathers, And I have done in thee judgments, And have scattered all thy remnant to every wind.

Zato bodo v tvoji sredi očetje jedli sinove in sinovi bodo jedli svoje očete. Izvršil bom sodbe v tebi in tvoj celotni preostanek bom razkropil na vse vetrove.

11 Therefore, I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah: Because My sanctuary thou hast defiled, With all thy detestable things, And with all thine abominations, Mine eye pitieth not, and I also spare not. Do not even I also diminish?

Zato, kakor jaz živim, « govori Gospod Bog, »zagotovo, ker si moje svetišče omadeževala z vsemi svojimi ostudnimi stvarmi in z vsemi svojimi ogabnostmi, zato bom tudi jaz tebe zmanjšal; niti moje oko ne bo prizaneslo, niti ne bom imel nobenega usmiljenja.

12 Thy third part — by pestilence they die, And by famine are consumed in thy midst, And the third part, by sword they fall round about thee, And the third part, to every wind I scatter, And a sword I draw out after them.

Tvoja tretjina bo umrla s kužno boleznijo in z lakoto bodo použiti v tvoji sredi. Tretjina bo padla pod mečem naokoli tebe, tretjino pa bom razkropil na vse vetrove in za njimi bom izvlekel meč.

13 And completed hath been Mine anger, And I have caused My fury to rest on them, And I have been comforted, And they have known that I, Jehovah, have spoken in My zeal, In My completing My fury on them.

Tako bo moja jeza dovršena in svoji razjarjenosti bom povzročil, da počiva nad njimi, jaz pa bom potolažen. Oni pa bodo vedeli, da sem jaz, Gospod, to govoril v svoji gorečnosti, ko sem svojo razjarjenost dovršil v njih.

14 And I give thee for a waste, And for a reproach among nations that [are] round about thee, Before the eyes of every passer by.

Poleg tega te bom naredil opustošenje in grajo med narodi, ki so naokoli tebe, pred očmi vseh, ki hodijo mimo.

15 And it hath been a reproach and a reviling, An instruction and an astonishment, To nations that [are] round about thee, In My doing in thee judgments, In anger and fury, and in furious reproofs, I, Jehovah, have spoken.

Tako bo to graja in zbadljivka, poučevanje in osuplost narodom, ki so naokoli tebe, ko bom v tebi izvršil sodbe v jezi, v razjarjenosti in v besnih ukorih. Jaz, Gospod, sem to govoril.

16 In My sending the evil arrows of famine among them, That have been for destruction, That I send to destroy you, And famine I am adding upon you, And I have broken to you the staff of bread.

Ko bom nanje poslal zle puščice lakote, ki bodo za njihovo uničenje in ki jih bom poslal, da vas uničijo; in jaz bom razširil lakoto nad vami in zlomil vašo oporo kruha.

17 And I have sent on you famine and evil beasts, And they have bereaved thee, And pestilence and blood pass over on thee, And a sword I do bring in against thee, I, Jehovah, have spoken!'

Tako bom nad vas poslal lakoto in zle živali in te te bodo oropale in kužna bolezen in kri bosta šla skozte in nadte bom privedel meč. Jaz, Gospod, sem to govoril.«
