1Še mi pride beseda GOSPODOVA, govoreč:
1Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
2In ti, sin človečji, hočeš li soditi, hočeš li soditi mesto, ki je prelivalo kri? tedaj mu oznani vse gnusobe njegove
2You, son of man, will you judge, will you judge the bloody city? then cause her to know all her abominations.
3in reci: Tako pravi Gospod Jehova: Mesto, ki preliva kri v svoji sredi, da pride njegov čas, in ki si dela malike zoper sebe, da se ognuša!
3You shall say, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: A city that sheds blood in the midst of her, that her time may come, and that makes idols against herself to defile her!
4Krivdo si nadse spravilo s krvjo, ki si jo prelilo, in ognusilo si se z grdimi maliki svojimi, ki si jih naredilo; in storilo si, da so se približali dnevi tvoji, in dospelo si v leta svoja. Zato sem te postavil v zasramovanje vsem narodom in v zasmeh po vseh deželah.
4You have become guilty in your blood that you have shed, and are defiled in your idols which you have made; and you have caused your days to draw near, and have come even to your years: therefore have I made you a reproach to the nations, and a mocking to all the countries.
5Bodisi, da so blizu ali daleč od tebe, zasmehovali te bodo, ker si umazanega imena in obilo v zmešnjavi.
5Those who are near, and those who are far from you, shall mock you, you infamous one and full of tumult.
6Glej, v tebi so bivali knezi Izraelovi, vsak po moči svoji, da bi prelivali kri.
6Behold, the princes of Israel, everyone according to his power, have been in you to shed blood.
7Očeta in mater so zaničevali v tebi; sredi tebe so delali silo tujcu, siroto in vdovo so žalili v tebi.
7In you have they set light by father and mother; in the midst of you have they dealt by oppression with the foreigner; in you have they wronged the fatherless and the widow.
8Svetinje moje si zaničevalo in sobote moje si skrunilo.
8You have despised my holy things, and have profaned my Sabbaths.
9Opravljivci so bili v tebi, da prelivajo kri; in izmed tebe so jedli mališke žrtve po gorah; sredi tebe so počenjali nesramnosti.
9Slanderous men have been in you to shed blood; and in you they have eaten on the mountains: in the midst of you they have committed lewdness.
10V tebi so odkrivali očetov svojih nagoto; v tebi so se pečali ž njo, ki je ločena zavoljo nesnage svoje.
10In you have they uncovered their fathers’ nakedness; in you have they humbled her who was unclean in her impurity.
11In eden je počenjal gnusobo z ženo bližnjega svojega, in drugi je nesramno oskrunil snaho svojo, še drugi pa je v tebi posilil sestro svojo, očeta svojega hčer.
11One has committed abomination with his neighbor’s wife; and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law; and another in you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter.
12V tebi so darila jemali, da prelivajo kri; obresti in namečke si jemalo in s silo si dobičkarilo na svojih bližnjih. Mene pa si pozabilo, govori Gospod Jehova.
12In you have they taken bribes to shed blood; you have taken interest and increase, and you have greedily gained of your neighbors by oppression, and have forgotten me, says the Lord Yahweh.
13Zato, glej, sem udaril v svojo roko v jezi nad dobičkaželjnostjo tvojo, s katero si ravnalo, in nad krivdo krvi, ki se je prelila sredi tebe.
13Behold, therefore, I have struck my hand at your dishonest gain which you have made, and at your blood which has been in the midst of you.
14Bo li tvoje srce preneslo to, ali bodo roke tvoje zadosti močne v dneh, ko bom obračunjal? Jaz, GOSPOD, sem govoril in tudi storim to.
14Can your heart endure, or can your hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with you? I, Yahweh, have spoken it, and will do it.
15In razkropim te med poganske narode in razženem te po deželah in docela odpravim nesnažnost tvojo iz tebe.
15I will scatter you among the nations, and disperse you through the countries; and I will consume your filthiness out of you.
16In oskruniš se samo po sebi pred očmi narodov; in spoznaš, da sem jaz GOSPOD.
16You shall be profaned in yourself, in the sight of the nations; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.
17In beseda GOSPODOVA mi je prišla, govoreč:
17The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
18Sin človečji, hiša Izraelova mi je postala v žlindro: vsi izmed njih so bron in kositer in železo in svinec sredi peči; srebrna žlindra so.
18Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to me: all of them are brass and tin and iron and lead, in the midst of the furnace; they are the dross of silver.
19Zatorej pravi tako Gospod Jehova: Ker ste vsi postali žlindra, zato, glejte, vas zberem sredi Jeruzalema.
19Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Because you have all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.
20kakor spravijo srebro in bron in železo in svinec in kositer v peč in ogenj spodaj podpihajo, da to raztope: tako vas skopičim v jezi in togoti svoji in vas vsadim v ogenj ter vas raztopim.
20As they gather silver and brass and iron and lead and tin into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire on it, to melt it; so will I gather you in my anger and in my wrath, and I will lay you there, and melt you.
21Da, zberem vas in ogenj jeze svoje bom pihal zoper vas, in raztapljali se boste sredi Jeruzalema.
21Yes, I will gather you, and blow on you with the fire of my wrath, and you shall be melted in its midst.
22Kakor se srebro topi sredi peči, tako se boste topili sredi njega. In spoznate, da sem jaz, GOSPOD, izlil srd svoj nad vas.
22As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so you will be melted in its midst; and you will know that I, Yahweh, have poured out my wrath on you.
23In beseda GOSPODOVA mi pride, govoreč:
23The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
24Sin človečji, reci ji: Ti si dežela, ki nisi oplaknjena, ki si ostala brez dežja v dan jeze.
24Son of man, tell her, You are a land that is not cleansed, nor rained on in the day of indignation.
25Njeni proroki so napravili zaroto v njej: kakor rjoveči lev, ki trga plen, žro duše, jemljejo zaklade in dragotine, vdove pomnožujejo v njej.
25There is a conspiracy of her prophets in its midst, like a roaring lion ravening the prey: they have devoured souls; they take treasure and precious things; they have made her widows many in its midst.
26Duhovniki njeni delajo silo postavi moji in skrunijo svetinje moje; med svetim in nesvetim ne delajo razločka, tudi ne uče razločevati med nečistim in čistim; in zagrinjajo si oči pred sobotami mojimi in mene onečaščujejo med seboj.
26Her priests have done violence to my law, and have profaned my holy things: they have made no distinction between the holy and the common, neither have they caused men to discern between the unclean and the clean, and have hidden their eyes from my Sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
27Knezi njeni v njej so kakor volkovi, ki trgajo plen, da prelivajo kri, v pogubo spravljajo duše, samo da dobe krivičen dobiček.
27Her princes in its midst are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, that they may get dishonest gain.
28In proroki njeni jim mažejo vse z belilom s tem, da gledajo ničemurne prikazni in jim vedežujejo laži, govoreč: Tako pravi Gospod Jehova, ko vendar GOSPOD ni govoril.
28Her prophets have plastered for them with whitewash, seeing false visions, and divining lies to them, saying, Thus says the Lord Yahweh, when Yahweh has not spoken.
29Ljudstvo na deželi je zabredlo v nasilstvo in goji grabež; ubožca in potrebnega tlačijo in tujcem delajo silo in krivico.
29The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery; yes, they have troubled the poor and needy, and have oppressed the foreigner wrongfully.
30In iskal sem moža med njimi, ki bi zazidal zid in stopil proti meni v razpoko za deželo, a nisem ga našel.Zato izlije nadnje srd svoj, z ognjem jeze svoje jih pokončam; njih dejanje jim spravim na glavo, govori Gospod Jehova.
30I sought for a man among them, who should build up the wall, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found none.
31Zato izlije nadnje srd svoj, z ognjem jeze svoje jih pokončam; njih dejanje jim spravim na glavo, govori Gospod Jehova.
31Therefore have I poured out my indignation on them; I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath: their own way have I brought on their heads, says the Lord Yahweh.
