Ezekiel 2

1 I reče mi: “Sine čovječji, na noge se, da s tobom govorim!”

And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee.

2 OI uđe u me duh, kako mi progovori, te me podiže na noge i ja čuh glas onoga koji mi govoraše.

And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me.

3 I reče mi: “Sine čovječji, šaljem te k sinovima Izraelovim, k narodu odmetničkom što se odvrže od mene. Oni i oci njihovi griješili su protiv mene sve do dana današnjega.

And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, [even] unto this very day.

4 Šaljem te k sinovima tvrdokorna pogleda i okorjela srca. Reci im: Ovako govori Jahve Gospod!

For [they are] impudent children and stiffhearted. I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD.

5 I poslušali oni ili ne poslušali - rod su odmetnički - neka znaju da je prorok među vama.

And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they [are] a rebellious house, ) yet shall know that there hath been a prophet among them.

6 A ti, sine čovječji, ne boj ih se i ne plaši se riječi njihovih: 'Trnje te okružuje i sjediš među samim skorpijama.' Ne plaši se riječi njihovih i ne boj se nimalo njihova pogleda jer oni su rod odmetnički.

And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns [be] with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they [be] a rebellious house.

7 Govori im moje riječi, poslušali oni ili ne poslušali, jer rod su odmetnički.

And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear: for they [are] most rebellious.

8 A ti, sine čovječji, poslušaj što ću ti sada reći: Ne budi odmetnik kao što su oni rod odmetnički! Otvori usta i progutaj što ću ti sada dati!”

But thou, son of man, hear what I say unto thee; Be not thou rebellious like that rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat that I give thee.

9 I pogledah, a to ruka k meni ispružena i u njoj, gle, svitak knjige.

And when I looked, behold, an hand [was] sent unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book [was] therein;

10 I razvi se knjiga preda mnom: bijaše ispisana izvana i iznutra, a u njoj napisano: “Naricanje! Jecanje! Jauk!”

And he spread it before me; and it [was] written within and without: and [there was] written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
