Ezekiel 4

1 »Tudi ti, človeški sin, si vzemi opeko in jo položi pred seboj in na njej upodobi mesto, celó [prestolnico] Jeruzalem,

“And as for you, son of man, take up for yourself a tablet, and you shall set it before you. And you shall draw upon it the city of Jerusalem.

2 in postavi obleganje zoper njo in zgradi utrdbo zoper njo in nasuj nasip zoper njo. Postavi tudi tabor zoper njo in naokoli zoper njo razpostavi oblegovalne ovne.

And you shall set up a blockade against it, and you shall build fortifications, and you shall put together a rampart, and you shall encamp opposite it, and you shall place battering rams around it.

3 Poleg tega si vzemi železno ponev in jo postavi za železen zid med seboj in mestom, in naravnaj svoj obraz zoper njo in ta bo oblegana, ti pa boš postavil oblegovanje zoper njo. To bo znamenje Izraelovi hiši.

And you shall take up for yourself an iron frying pan, and place it as an iron wall between you and the city. And harden your face against it, and it shall be under a siege, and you shall surround it. This is a sign to the house of Israel.

4 Lezi tudi na svojo levo stran in nanjo položi krivičnost Izraelove hiše. Glede na število dni, ko boš ležal na tej, boš nosil njihovo krivičnost.

And you shall sleep on your left side. And you shall place the iniquities of the house of Israel on it by the number of days that you will sleep on it. And you shall take upon yourself their iniquity.

5 Kajti nate sem položil leta njihove krivičnosti, glede na število dni, tristo devetdeset dni. Tako boš nosil krivičnost Izraelove hiše.

For I have given to you the years of their iniquity, by the number of the days: three hundred and ninety days. And you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

6 Ko jih dopolniš, ponovno lezi na svojo desno stran in štirideset dni boš nosil krivičnost Judove hiše. Določil sem ti vsak dan za leto.

And when you will have completed this, you shall sleep a second time, on your right side, and you shall assume the iniquity of the house of Judah for forty days: one day for each year; one day, I say, for each year, have I given to you.

7 Zato boš svoj obraz naravnal proti obleganju [prestolnice] Jeruzalem in tvoj laket bo odkrit in prerokoval boš zoper njo.

And you shall turn your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and your arm shall be extended. And you shall prophesy against it.

8 Glej, nate bom položil vezi in ne boš se obrnil iz ene strani na drugo, dokler ne dokončaš dni svojega obleganja.

Behold, I have surrounded you with chains. And you shall not turn yourself from one side to the other side, until you have completed the days of your siege.

9 K sebi vzemi tudi pšenico, ječmen, fižol, lečo, proso in piro ter jih stresi v eno posodo in iz tega zamesi kruh; glede na število dni, ki jih boš preležal na svoji strani, tristo devetdeset dni boš jedel od tega.

And you shall take for yourself wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and vetch. And you shall set them in one vessel, and you shall make for yourself bread by the number of days that you will sleep upon your side: three hundred and ninety days shall you shall eat from it.

10 Tvoja hrana, ki jo boš jedel, bo po teži, dvajset šeklov na dan. Od časa do časa jo boš jedel.

But your food, which you will eat, shall be in weight twenty staters a day. You shall eat it from time to time.

11 Tudi vodo boš pil po meri, šesti del vrča. Od časa do časa [jo] boš pil.

And you shall drink water by measure, one sixth part of a hin. You shall drink it from time to time.

12 To boš jedel kakor ječmenove kolače in to boš spekel z iztrebkom, ki prihaja iz človeka, v njihovem pogledu.«

And you shall eat it like barley bread baked under ashes. And you shall cover it, in their sight, with the dung that goes out of a man.”

13 Gospod je rekel: »Celo tako bodo Izraelovi otroci jedli svoj omadeževani kruh med pogani, kamor jih bom pognal.«

And the Lord said: “So shall the sons of Israel eat their bread, polluted among the Gentiles, to whom I will cast them out.”

14 Potem sem rekel: »Ah, Gospod Bog! Glej, moja duša ni bila oskrunjena, kajti od svoje mladosti, celo do sedaj, nisem jedel od tega, kar samo umre ali je raztrgano na koščke; niti v moja usta ni prišlo gnusno meso.«

And I said: “Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God! Behold, my soul has not been polluted, and from my infancy even until now, I have not eaten anything that has died of itself, nor that which has been torn up by beasts, and no unclean flesh at all has entered into my mouth.”

15 Potem mi je rekel: »Glej! Dajem ti kravji iztrebek za človeški iztrebek in svoj kruh boš pripravil s tem.«

And he said to me: “Behold, I have given to you cow manure in place of human dung, and you shall make your bread with it.”

16 Poleg tega mi je rekel: »Človeški sin, glej, zlomil bom oporo kruha v [prestolnici] Jeruzalem. Kruh bodo jedli po teži in s skrbnostjo in vodo bodo pili po meri in z osuplostjo,

And he said to me: “Son of man, behold: I will crush the staff of bread in Jerusalem. And they will eat bread by weight and with anxiety. And they will drink water by measure and with anguish.

17 da jim bo lahko primanjkovalo kruha in vode in bodo osupli eden z drugim in shirali zaradi svoje krivičnosti.«

So then, when bread and water fail, each one may fall against his brother. And they shall waste away in their iniquities.”
