Ezekiel 22
1 I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
2 “Sine čovječji, hoćeš li suditi, hoćeš li suditi gradu krvničkom? Pokaži mu sve gnusobe njegove!
“And you, son of man, do you judge? Do you judge the city of blood? Then you have caused it to know all its abominations,
3 Reci: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Grade što u sebi krv toliku prolijevaš i što svuda sebi kumire praviš da se okaljaš, kucnu čas tvoj:
and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: The city is shedding blood in its midst, For the coming in of its time, And it has made idols on it for defilement.
4 krvlju što je proli ti sagriješi i kumirima koje napravi ti se okalja, skrativši tako dane svoje i ubrzavši svoje godine. I zato ću te sada učiniti sramotom među narodima, ruglom po svim zemljama.
You have been guilty by your blood that you have shed, And you have been defiled by your idols that you have made, And you cause your days to draw near, And have come to your years, Therefore I have given you [for] a reproach to nations, And a derision to all the lands.
5 I koji su ti blizu i koji su ti daleko, podrugivat će se tebi: 'O sramotno ime, grade pokvareni!'
The near and the far-off from you scoff at you, O defiled of name—abounding in trouble.
6 Eto, knezovi izraelski - svaki na svoju ruku - u tebi krv prolijevaju.
Behold, princes of Israel—each according to his arm Have been in you to shed blood.
7 I u tebi se više ne poštuje ni otac ni majka, došljake tlače, siročad i udovice u tebi zlostavljaju!
They have made light of father and mother in you, They dealt oppressively to a sojourner in your midst, They oppressed fatherless and widow in you.
8 Svetinje moje prezireš, subote oskvrnjuješ.
You have despised My holy things, And you have defiled My Sabbaths.
9 U tebi su klevetnici zbog kojih se krv prolijeva; u tebi se po gorama blaguje, posred tebe čine sramote.
Men of slander have been in you to shed blood, And they have eaten on the mountains in you, They have done wickedness in your midst.
10 U tebi se raskriva sramota očeva, u tebi siluju žene dok su nečiste.
One has uncovered the nakedness of a father in you, They humbled the menstruous woman in you.
11 Jedan čini gadost sa ženom susjeda svoga, drugi djelom sramotnim oskvrnjuje snahu svoju, a treći u tebi siluje sestru, kćerku oca svoga.
And each has done abomination with the wife of his neighbor, And each has defiled his daughter-in-law through wickedness, And each has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter, in you.
12 Ima ih koji i mito primaju da krv proliju. Uzimaš ujam i pridatak, od bližnjega silom otimaš, a mene zaboravljaš - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.
They have taken a bribe to shed blood in you, You have taken usury and increase, And cut off your neighbor by oppression, And you have forgotten Me, A declaration of Lord YHWH!
13 Zato, evo, ja rukama plješćem nad plijenom što ga ti napljačka i nad krvlju što se lije u tebi.
And behold, I have struck My hand, Because of your dishonest gain that you have gained, And for your blood that has been in your midst.
14 Jer, hoće li srce tvoje izdržati i hoće li ruke tvoje odoljeti u dane kad ja na te ustanem? Ja, Jahve, rekoh i učinit ću!
Does your heart stand—are your hands strong, For the days that I am dealing with you? I, YHWH, have spoken and have done [it].
15 Zato ću te raspršiti među narode, rasijat' te po zemljama, da uklonim iz tebe svu nečistoću!
And I have scattered you among nations, And have spread you out among lands, And consumed your uncleanness out of you.
16 I bit ćeš opet moja baština naočigled naroda. I znat ćeš da sam ja Jahve!'”
And you have been defiled in yourself Before the eyes of nations, And you have known that I [am] YHWH.”
17 Dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
18 “Sine čovječji, dom Izraelov troska mi postade: bakar, srebro, kositar, željezo i olovo u peći - svi su oni troska!
“Son of man, the house of Israel has been for dross to Me, All of them [are] bronze, and tin, and iron, and lead, In the midst of a furnace—silver has been dross,
19 Stoga ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Jer mi troska postadoste, skupit ću vas, evo, u Jeruzalemu.
Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Because you have all become dross, Therefore, behold, I am gathering you into the midst of Jerusalem,
20 Kao što se skuplja srebro, bakar, željezo, olovo i kositar u peći te se okolo oganj potpiri da se sve rastali, tako ću i ja vas skupiti u svojem gnjevu i u svojoj jarosti, složiti vas i rastaliti.
A gathering of silver, and bronze, and iron, and lead, and tin, Into the midst of a furnace—to blow fire on it, to melt it, So I gather in My anger and in My fury, And I have let rest, and have melted you.
21 Jest, skupit ću vas i potpiriti oko vas oganj svoje jarosti da se usred grada rastalite.
And I have heaped you up, And blown on you in the fire of My wrath, And you have been melted in its midst.
22 Kao što se srebro u peći topi, tako ćete se i vi u njemu rastopiti. I znat ćete da ja, Jahve, gnjev svoj na vas izlijevam!'”
As the melting of silver in the midst of a furnace, So you are melted in its midst, And you have known that I, YHWH, have poured out My fury on you.”
23 Dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
24 “Sine čovječji, reci još: 'Ti si zemlja još neočišćena, koju još ne opra kiša dana jarosnoga!
“Son of man, say to it, You [are] a land, It [is] not cleansed nor rained on in a day of indignation.
25 Knezovi njezini, poput lavova što riču i plijen razdiru, ljude proždiru, otimlju im blago i dragocjenosti, množeći udovice usred nje.
A conspiracy of its prophets [is] in its midst, As a roaring lion tearing prey; They have devoured the soul, They have taken wealth and glory, Its widows have multiplied in its midst.
26 Svećenici njezini ne poštuju mog Zakona i oskvrnjuju moje svetinje, ne razlikujući sveto od nesvetoga, ne učeći se lučiti nečisto od čistoga. Zanemarili su subote moje, bez časti sam u njihovoj sredini.
Its priests have wronged My law, And they defile My holy things, They have not made separation between holy and common, And they have not made known [the difference] between the unclean and the clean, And they have hidden their eyes from My Sabbaths, And I am pierced in their midst.
27 Starješine njezine, poput vukova što plijen razdiru i krv prolijevaju, upropašćuju ljude, lakomi na dobitak.
Its princes [are] as wolves in its midst, Tearing prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, For the sake of gaining dishonest gain.
28 A proroci njezini sve to premazuju bjelilom i prekrivaju ispraznim viđenjima i lažnim proricanjima zboreći: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod!' - a Jahve to ne reče.
And its prophets have coated with chalk for them, Seeing a vain thing, and divining a lie for them, Saying, Thus said Lord YHWH, And YHWH has not spoken.
29 Imućnici pak čine svakojaka nasilja i otimačine, siromaha i bijednika ugnjetavaju, a došljaka bespravno tlače.
The people of the land have used oppression, And have taken plunder away violently, And have oppressed humble and needy, And oppressed the sojourner without judgment.
30 Tražio sam među njima nekoga da podigne zidine i stane na proboje preda me u obranu zemlje, da je ne zatrem, i ne nađoh nikoga.
And I seek from them a man making a wall, And standing in the breach before Me, In behalf of the land—not to destroy it, And I have found none.
31 I zato izlih na njih gnjev svoj pa ih zatrijeh ognjem svoje jarosti; putove im njihove na glavu oborih' - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.”
And I pour out My indignation on them, I have consumed them by [the] fire of My wrath, I have put their way on their own head, A declaration of Lord YHWH!”
