¹A ty, synu človeka, vezmi si tehlu a polož ju pred seba a vyryješ na ňu mesto, Jeruzalem.

¹You also, son of man, take a tile, and lay it before yourself, and portray on it a city, even Jerusalem:

²Dáš proti nemu obľahnutie a vystavíš proti nemu hradby a nasypeš proti nemu val a rozložíš proti nemu tábory vojska a postav proti nemu dobývacích baranov dookola.

²and lay siege against it, and build forts against it, and cast up a mound against it; set camps also against it, and plant battering rams against it all around.

³A ty si vezmi železnú paňvu a postavíš ju ako železný múr medzi seba a medzi mesto a obrátiš pevne svoju tvár proti nemu, a bude obľahnuté, a obľahneš ho. To bude znamením domu Izraelovmu.

³Take for yourself an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between you and the city: and set your face toward it, and it shall be besieged, and you shall lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.

⁴A ty si ľahni na svoj ľavý bok a položíš neprávosť domu Izraelovho naň; toľko dní, koľko budeš ležať na ňom, ponesieš ich neprávosť.

⁴Moreover lie on your left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel on it; according to the number of the days that you shall lie on it, you shall bear their iniquity.

⁵A ja ti dám roky ich neprávosti v počte dní, tristo deväťdesiat dní, a ponesieš neprávosť domu Izraelovho.

⁵For I have appointed the years of their iniquity to be to you a number of days, even three hundred ninety days: so you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

⁶Keď tie dokončíš, ľahneš a budeš ležať na svojom pravom boku, po druhé, a ponesieš neprávosť domu Júdovho štyridsať dní; každý deň ti dávam za rok.

⁶Again, when you have accomplished these, you shall lie on your right side, and shall bear the iniquity of the house of Judah: forty days, each day for a year, have I appointed it to you.

⁷A proti obľahnutiu Jeruzalema obrátiš rázne svoju tvár a svoje obnažené rameno a budeš prorokovať proti nemu, proti Jeruzalemu.

⁷You shall set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with your arm uncovered; and you shall prophesy against it.

⁸A hľa, dávam na teba povrazy, a neobrátiš sa so svojho boku na druhý svoj bok, dokiaľ nedokončíš dní svojho obliehania.

⁸Behold, I lay bands on you, and you shall not turn you from one side to the other, until you have accomplished the days of your siege.

⁹A ty si vezmi pšenice, jačmeňa, bôbu, šošovice, pšena a viky a dáš to do jednej nádoby a pripravíš si z toho chlieb na počet dní, ktoré budeš ležať na svojom boku; tristo deväťdesiat dní to budeš jesť.

⁹Take for yourself also wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make bread of it; according to the number of the days that you shall lie on your side, even three hundred ninety days, you shall eat of it.

¹⁰A tvojho pokrmu, ktorý budeš jesť, bude na váhu, dvadsať šeklov na deň. Od času do času ho budeš jesť.

¹⁰Your food which you shall eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time you shall eat it.

¹¹Aj vodu budeš piť na mieru, šestinu hína; od času do času budeš piť.

¹¹You shall drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from time to time you shall drink.

¹²A budeš to jesť pripravené jako jačmenný koláč, a budeš to piecť na lajne, ktoré vyšlo z človeka, pred ich očami.

¹²You shall eat it as barley cakes, and you shall bake it in their sight with dung that comes out of man.

¹³A Hospodin riekol: Tak budú jesť synovia Izraelovi svoj chlieb nečistý medzi pohanmi, kam ich zaženiem.

¹³Yahweh said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations where I will drive them.

¹⁴Vtedy som povedal: Ach, Pane, Hospodine, hľa, moja duša nie je ničím poškvrnená, a zdochliny a roztrhaného od zveri som nejedol nikdy, od svojej mladosti až doteraz, ani ešte nevošlo do mojich úst ohavné mäso poškvrnené.

¹⁴Then I said, Ah Lord Yahweh! behold, my soul has not been polluted; for from my youth up even until now have I not eaten of that which dies of itself, or is torn of animals; neither came there abominable flesh into my mouth.

¹⁵A riekol mi: Vidz, dal som ti kravský trus miesto lajna človeka, a teda pripravíš svoj chlieb na tom.

¹⁵Then he said to me, Behold, I have given you cow’s dung for man’s dung, and you shall prepare your bread thereon.

¹⁶A riekol mi: Synu človeka, hľa, ja polámem opornú palicu chleba v Jeruzaleme, a budú jesť chlieb na váhu a v starosti a vodu budú piť na mieru a v predesení,

¹⁶Moreover he said to me, Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight, and with fearfulness; and they shall drink water by measure, and in dismay:

¹⁷aby mali nedostatok chleba a vody a desili sa druh s druhom a aby chradnúc vymizli pre svoju neprávosť.

¹⁷that they may want bread and water, and be dismayed one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.
