1The hand of Yahweh was on me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of Yahweh, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones.
1Bola nado mnou ruka Hospodinova, a vyviedol ma von v duchu Hospodinovom a postavil ma a nechal prostred údolia, ktoré bolo plné kostí.
2He caused me to pass by them all around: and behold, there were very many in the open valley; and behold, they were very dry.
2A previedol ma popri nich kolom dookola. A hľa, bolo ich veľmi mnoho na tvári údolia, a hľa, boly veľmi suché.
3He said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? I answered, Lord Yahweh, you know.
3A riekol mi: Synu človeka, či ožijú tieto kosti? A ja som povedal: Pane, Hospodine, ty vieš.
4Again he said to me, Prophesy over these bones, and tell them, you dry bones, hear the word of Yahweh.
4Vtedy mi riekol: Prorokuj o týchto kostiach a povieš im: Vy, suché kosti, počujte slovo Hospodinovo!
5Thus says the Lord Yahweh to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live.
5Takto hovorí Pán Hospodin týmto kostiam: Hľa, ja uvediem do vás ducha, a ožijete.
6I will lay sinews on you, and will bring up flesh on you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.
6A dám na vás žily a spôsobím to, aby na vás vystúpilo telo a potiahnem vás kožou, dám do vás ducha a ožijete a zviete, že ja som Hospodin.
7So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, an earthquake; and the bones came together, bone to its bone.
7Vtedy som prorokoval, ako mi bolo rozkázané. Tu povstal zvuk, keď som prorokoval, a hľa, bolo počuť hrkot, a kosti sa približovaly, kosť ku svojej kosti.
8I saw, and, behold, there were sinews on them, and flesh came up, and skin covered them above; but there was no breath in them.
8A videl som, že hľa, ukázaly sa na nich žily, a vystúpilo mäso, a koža ich potiahla po vrchu, ale ducha v nich nebolo.
9Then he said to me, Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and tell the wind, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Come from the four winds, breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live.
9A riekol mi: Prorokuj k duchu, prorokuj, synu človeka, a povieš duchu: Takto hovorí Pán Hospodin: Od štyroch vetrov prijdi, duchu, a vej na týchto pobitých, aby ožili!
10So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up on their feet, an exceedingly great army.
10Nuž prorokoval som tak, ako mi rozkázal. A vošiel do nich duch, a ožili a postavili sa na svoje nohy, zástup vojska, veliký náramne.
11Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off.
11A riekol mi: Synu človeka, tieto kosti sú celý dom Izraelov. Hľa, hovoria: Naše kosti uschly, a zahynula naša nádej, už je po nás!
12Therefore prophesy, and tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, my people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel.
12Preto prorokuj a povieš im: Takto hovorí Pán Hospodin: Hľa, ja otvorím vaše hroby a vyvediem vás z vašich hrobov, môj ľude, a dovediem vás do zeme Izraelovej.
13You shall know that I am Yahweh, when I have opened your graves, and caused you to come up out of your graves, my people.
13A zviete, že ja som Hospodin, keď otvorím vaše hroby a keď vás vyvediem z vašich hrobov, môj ľude.
14I will put my Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land: and you shall know that I, Yahweh, have spoken it and performed it, says Yahweh.
14A dám do vás svojho ducha, a ožijete, a osadím vás na vašej zemi, a zviete, že ja Hospodin som hovoril aj učiním, hovorí Hospodin.
15The word of Yahweh came again to me, saying,
15A stalo sa slovo Hospodinovo ku mne povediac:
16You, son of man, take one stick, and write on it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions:
16A ty, synu človeka, vezmi si jedno drevo a napíš naň: Júdovi a synom Izraelovým, jeho spoločníkom. Potom vezmi druhé drevo a napíš naň: Jozefovi. Drevo Efraimovo a celého domu Izraelovho, jeho spoločníkov.
17and join them for you one to another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand.
17A priblíž si ich jedno k druhému v jedno drevo, aby boly jedno v tvojej ruke.
18When the children of your people shall speak to you, saying, Will you not show us what you mean by these?
18Keď ti potom povedia synovia tvojho ľudu a rieknu: Či nám neoznámiš, načo ti je to?
19tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions; and I will put them with it, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in my hand.
19Hovor im: Takto hovorí Pán Hospodin: Hľa, ja vezmem drevo Jozefovo, ktoré je v ruke Efraimovej, a pokolenia Izraelove, jeho spoločníkov, a dám ich aj s ním k drevu Júdovmu a učiním ich jedným drevom, a budú jedno v mojej ruke.
20The sticks whereon you write shall be in your hand before their eyes.
20A drevá, na ktoré napíšeš svojou rukou, budú pred ich očami.
21Say to them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, where they are gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
21A hovor im: Takto hovorí Pán Hospodin: Hľa, ja vezmem synov Izraelových zpomedzi národov, kam odišli, a shromaždím ich zo všetkých strán a dovediem ich do ich zeme.
22and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all; and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all;
22A učiním ich jedným národom v zemi, na vrchoch Izraelových, a jeden kráľ bude im všetkým za kráľa, a nebudú viacej dvoma národami ani sa už nebudú viacej deliť na dve kráľovstvá, nikdy.
23neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions; but I will save them out of all their dwelling places, in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
23A nebudú sa viacej zanečisťovať svojimi ukydanými bohmi a svojimi mrzkosťami ani niktorými svojimi všelijakými prestúpeniami, a zachránim ich zo všetkých ich bydlísk, v ktorých hrešili, a očistím ich, a budú mi ľudom, a ja im budem Bohom.
24My servant David shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my ordinances, and observe my statutes, and do them.
24A môj služobník Dávid bude kráľom nad nimi, a všetci budú mať jedného pastiera, budú chodiť v mojich súdoch a budú ostríhať moje ustanovenia a budú ich činiť.
25They shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob my servant, in which your fathers lived; and they shall dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children’s children, forever: and David my servant shall be their prince for ever.
25Budú bývať na zemi, ktorú som dal svojmu služobníkovi Jakobovi, v ktorej bývali vaši otcovia, a budú bývať na nej oni aj ich synovia i synovia ich synov až na veky, a Dávid, môj služobník, im bude kniežaťom na veky.
26Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in their midst forevermore.
26A učiním s nimi smluvu pokoja; bude to večná smluva s nimi. A dám ich ta a rozmnožím ich a dám svoju svätyňu do ich stredu, a bude tak až na veky.
27My tent also shall be with them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
27A môj príbytok bude nad nimi, a budem im Bohom, a oni mi budú ľudom.
28The nations shall know that I am Yahweh who sanctifies Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in their midst forevermore.
28A tak zvedia národy, že ja som Hospodin, ktorý posväcujem Izraela, keď bude moja svätyňa v ich strede na veky.
