Jezekilj 33

1 Opet mi doðe rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:

Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

2 Sine èovjeèji, govori sinovima naroda svojega, i kaži im: kad pustim na koju zemlju maè, ako narod one zemlje uzme koga izmeðu sebe, i postave ga sebi za stražara,

Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say to them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their borders, and set him for their watchman:

3 I on vidjevši maè gdje ide na zemlju zatrubi u trubu, i opomene narod,

If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he shall blow the trumpet, and warn the people;

4 Ako se ko èuvši trubu ne uzme na um, i maè došavši pogubi ga, krv æe njegova biti na njegovoj glavi.

Then whoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword shall come and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.

5 Jer èu glas trubni, i ne uze se na um, krv æe njegova biti na njemu; da se uze na um, saèuvao bi dušu svoju.

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 Ako li stražar vidjevši maè gdje ide ne zatrubi u trubu i narod ne bude opomenut, a maè došav pogubi koga izmeðu njih, taj æe poginuti za svoje bezakonje, ali æu krv njegovu iskati iz ruke stražareve.

But if the watchman shall see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword shall 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 I tebe, sine èovjeèji, tebe postavih stražarem domu Izrailjevu; slušaj dakle rijeè iz mojih usta i opominji ih od mene.

So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman to the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.

8 Kad reèem bezbožniku: bezbožnièe, poginuæeš; a ti ne progovoriš i ne opomeneš bezbožnika da se proðe puta svojega; taj æe bezbožnik poginuti za svoje bezakonje; ali æu krv njegovu iskati iz tvoje ruke.

When I say to 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 thy hand.

9 Ako li ti opomeneš bezbožnika da se vrati sa svoga puta, a on se ne vrati sa svoga puta, on æe poginuti za svoje bezakonje, a ti æeš saèuvati dušu svoju.

Nevertheless, if thou shalt warn the wicked of his way to turn from it; if he shall not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.

10 Zato ti, sine èovjeèji, reci domu Izrailjevu: vi govorite ovako i kažete: prijestupi naši i grijesi naši na nama su, i s njih propadamo; kako bismo živjeli?

Therefore, O thou son of man, speak to the house of Israel; Thus ye speak, saying, If our transgressions and our sins [are] upon us, and we pine away in them, how should we then live?

11 Reci im: tako bio ja živ, govori Gospod Gospod, nije mi milo da umre bezbožnik, nego da se vrati bezbožnik sa svoga puta i bude živ; vratite se, vratite se sa zlijeh putova svojih, jer zašto da mrete, dome Izrailjev?

Say to them, [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked should 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, sine èovjeèji, reci sinovima naroda svojega: pravednoga neæe izbaviti pravda njegova kad zgriješi, i bezbožnik neæe propasti sa bezbožnosti svoje kad se vrati od bezbožnosti svoje, kao što pravednik ne može s nje živjeti kad zgriješi.

Therefore, thou son of man, say to 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 by it 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 Kad reèem pravedniku da æe doista živjeti, a on se pouzda u pravdu svoju pa uèini nepravdu, od sve pravde njegove ništa se neæe spomenuti, nego æe poginuti s nepravde svoje koju uèini.

When I shall say to the righteous, [that] he shall surely live; if he shall 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 A kad reèem bezbožniku: doista æeš poginuti, a on se obrati od grijeha svojega i stane èiniti sud i pravdu,

Again, when I say to the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he shall turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;

15 I vrati bezbožnik zalog, i vrati što je oteo, i stane hoditi po uredbama životnijem ne èineæi bezakonja, doista æe biti živ, neæe umrijeti.

[If] the wicked shall restore the pledge, give again that which he had robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die.

16 Od svijeh grijeha što je zgriješio ništa mu se neæe spomenuti; èinio je sud i pravdu, doista æe živ biti.

None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned to him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.

17 A sinovi naroda tvojega govore: nije prav put Gospodnji; a njihov put nije prav.

Yet the children of thy people say, The way of the LORD is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal.

18 Kad se pravednik odvrati od pravde svoje i uèini nepravdu, poginuæe s toga.

When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, for that he shall even die.

19 A kad se bezbožnik odvrati od svoje bezbožnosti i uèini sud i pravdu, on æe živ biti s toga.

But if the wicked shall turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, for that he shall live.

20 A vi govorite: nije prav put Gospodnji. Sudiæu vam, dome Izrailjev, svakome po putovima njegovijem.

Yet ye say, The way of the LORD is not equal. O ye house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.

21 A dvanaeste godine robovanja našega, desetoga mjeseca, petoga dana doðe k meni jedan koji uteèe iz Jerusalima, i reèe: uze se grad.

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 to me, saying, The city is smitten.

22 A ruka Gospodnja doðe nada me uveèe prije nego doðe onaj što uteèe, i otvori mi usta dokle onaj doðe k meni ujutru; otvoriše mi se usta, te više ne muèah.

Now the hand of the LORD was upon me in the evening, before he that had 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 I doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:

Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

24 Sine èovjeèji, koji žive u onijem pustolinama u zemlji Izrailjevoj govore i kažu: Avram bijaše jedan, i naslijedi ovu zemlju; a nas je mnogo; nama je data ova zemlja u našljedstvo.

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 to us for inheritance.

25 Zato im reci: ovako veli Gospod Gospod: jedete s krvlju, i oèi svoje podižete ka gadnijem bogovima svojim, i krv proljevate, i hoæete da naslijedite zemlju?

Wherefore say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Ye eat with the blood, and lift up your eyes towards your idols, and shed blood: and shall ye possess the land?

26 Opirete se na maè svoj, èinite gadove, i skvrnite svaki ženu bližnjega svojega, i hoæete da naslijedite zemlju?

Ye stand upon your sword, ye work abomination, and ye defile every one his neighbor's wife: and shall ye possess the land?

27 Ovako im reci: ovako veli Gospod Gospod: tako ja živ bio, koji su u pustolinama, pašæe od maèa; i koji je u polju, zvijerima æu ga dati da ga izjedu; a koji su po gradovima i po peæinama, od pomora æe pomrijeti.

Say thou thus to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; [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 [are] in the forts and in the caves shall die by the pestilence.

28 Tako æu sasvijem opustiti tu zemlju, i nestaæe ponosa sile njezine, i opustjeæe gore Izrailjeve da neæe niko prolaziti.

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 I oni æe poznati da sam ja Gospod kad zemlju sasvijem opustim za sve gadove njihove što èiniše.

Then shall they know that I [am] the LORD, when I have laid the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed.

30 A o tebi, sine èovjeèji, sinovi naroda tvojega kazuju o tebi uza zidove i na vratima kuænijem, i govore jedan drugomu, svaki bratu svojemu, i vele: hodite i èujte kaka rijeè doðe 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 the LORD.

31 I dolaze k tebi kao kad se narod skuplja, i narod moj sjeda pred tobom, i sluša rijeèi tvoje, ali ih ne izvršuje; u ustima su im ljupke a srce njihovo ide za svojim lakomstvom.

And they come to thee as the people come, and they sit before thee [as] my people, and they hear thy words, but they will not do them: for with their mouth they show much love, [but] their heart goeth after their covetousness.

32 I gle, ti si im kao ljupka pjesma, kao èovjek lijepa glasa i koji dobro svira; slušaju rijeèi tvoje, ali ih ne izvršuju.

And lo, thou [art] to 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 not perform them.

33 Ali kad to doðe, a evo ide, onda æe poznati da je bio prorok meðu njima.

And when this cometh to pass, (lo, it will come, ) then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them.
