Ezekiel 35
1 I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 “Sine čovječji, okreni lice k Seirskoj gori i prorokuj protiv nje!
“Son of man, set your face against mount Seir, and you shall prophesy about it, and you shall say to it:
3 Reci joj: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Evo me na te, Goro seirska! Ruku ću podići na te i pretvoriti te u pustoš i pustinju.
Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, mount Seir, and I will extend my hand over you, and I will make you desolate and deserted.
4 Gradove ću tvoje razvaliti i postat ćeš pustinjom. I znat ćeš da sam ja Jahve!
I will tear down your cities, and you will be deserted. And you shall know that I am the Lord.
5 Vječnu si mržnju gojila i maču predavala sinove Izraelove kad bi ih nesreća pogodila i kad bi im kucnuo čas posljednjega grijeha.
For you have been a continual adversary, and you have enclosed the sons of Israel, by the hands of the sword, in the time of their affliction, in the time of extreme iniquity.
6 Zato, života mi moga - riječ je Jahve Gospoda - krvi ću te predati i krv će te progoniti: od krvi nisi prezala, krv će te progoniti!
Because of this, as I live, says the Lord God, I will hand you over to blood, and blood will pursue you. Even though you have hated blood, blood will pursue you.
7 Od Gore seirske učinit ću pustoš i pustinju, istrijebit ću iz nje polaznika i povratnika.
And I will make mount Seir desolate and deserted. And I will take away from it the one who departs and the one who returns.
8 Gore njezine napunit ću truplima: po tvojim brežuljcima, po tvojim dolinama i po tvojim uvalama padat će mačem pokošeni.
And I will fill up its mountains with its slain. In your hills, and in your valleys, as well as in your torrents, the slain will fall by the sword.
9 Učinit ću od tebe vječnu pustinju, gradovi se tvoji neće napučiti. I znat ćete da sam ja Jahve!'
I will hand you over to everlasting desolations, and your cities will not be inhabited. And you shall know that I am the Lord God.
10 Ti reče: 'Ova dva naroda i ove dvije zemlje bit će moji; mi ćemo ih zaposjesti, ako i jest Jahve bio ondje!'
For you have said, ‘Two nations and two lands will be mine, and I will possess them as an inheritance,’ though the Lord was in that place.
11 'Zato, života mi moga - riječ je Jahve Gospoda - postupit ću s tobom prema gnjevu i ljubomori s kojom ti postupi u svojoj mržnji s njima! Upoznat ćeš me po tome kako ću ti suditi!
Because of this, as I live, says the Lord God, I will act in accord with your own wrath, and in accord with your own zeal, by which you have acted with hatred toward them. And I will be made known by them, when I will have judged you.
12 I znat ćeš da sam ja, Jahve, čuo sve tvoje hule što ih izreče na gore Izraelove govoreći: 'Opustješe, nama su dane za hranu!'
And you shall know that I, the Lord, have heard all your disgraces, which you have spoken about the mountains of Israel, saying: ‘They are deserted. They have been given to us to devour.’
13 Razmetali ste se, protiv mene govorili i gomilali protiv mene riječi; čuo sam ja!'
And you rose up against me with your mouth, and you disparaged against me with your words. I have heard.
14 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Na radost sve zemlje, od tebe ću učiniti pustoš.
Thus says the Lord God: When the whole earth will rejoice, I will reduce you to solitude.
15 Kako si se ti radovala što opustje baština doma Izraelova, tako ću učiniti s tobom: opustjet ćeš, Goro seirska, a s tobom i sav Edom! I znat će se da sam ja Jahve!”
Just as you have rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel, when it was laid waste, so will I act toward you. You will be laid waste, O mount Seir, with all of Idumea. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
