Ezekiel, 30

1. And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

1. I doðe mi rijeè Jahvina:

2. “Son of man, prophesy and say: Thus says the Lord God: Wail: ‘Woe, woe to the day!’

2. "Sine èovjeèji, prorokuj i reci: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Kukajte: 'Jao dana!'

3. For the day is near, and the day of the Lord is approaching! It is a day of gloom; it will be the time of the Gentiles.

3. Jer se bliži dan, bliži se dan Jahvin! Dan oblaèan, vrijeme narodima odreðeno.

4. And the sword will come to Egypt. And there will be dread in Ethiopia, when the wounded will have fallen in Egypt, and its multitude will have been taken away, and its foundations will have been destroyed.

4. I maè æe uæi u Egipat, a strah æe ophrvati Etiopiju kad mrtvi stanu padati po Egiptu i kad se razgrabi njegovo blago te kad mu temelje sve sruše.

5. Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the rest of the common people, and Chub, and the sons of the land of the covenant, will fall with them by the sword.

5. Kuš, Put i Lud, sva Arabija i Libija, i sinovi zemlje Krete s njima od maèa æe izginuti'!

6. Thus says the Lord God: And those who prop up Egypt will fall, and the arrogance of its reign will be brought down. They will fall in it by the sword, before the tower of Syene, says the Lord, the God of hosts.

6. Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Past æe koji podupiru Egipat i srozat æe se ponos njegove moæi. Od Migdola do Sevana sve æe u njemu od maèa pasti - rijeè je Jahve Gospoda.

7. And they will be scattered into the midst of desolate lands, and its cities will be in the midst of cities that have been deserted.

7. On æe biti pustoš meðu opustošenim zemljama, a njegovi gradovi ruševine meðu razrušenim gradovima.

8. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have brought a fire into Egypt, and when all its helpers will have been worn away.

8. I znat æe da sam ja Jahve kad zapalim svoj oganj u Egiptu i zatrem sve pomagaèe njegove.

9. In that day, messengers will go forth from my face in Greek warships, in order to crush the confidence of Ethiopia. And there will be dread among them in the day of Egypt; for without doubt, it will happen.

9. U onaj æe dan glasnici od mene na laðama isploviti da zastraše bezbrižnu Etiopiju. I strah æe je ophrvati u dan egipatski. Jer, evo, bliži se!'

10. Thus says the Lord God: By the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, I will cause the multitude of Egypt to cease.

10. Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Uništit æu mnoštvo egipatsko rukom Nabukodonozora, kralja babilonskoga!

11. He, and his people with him, the strongest of the Gentiles, will be brought forth in order to destroy the land. And they will draw their swords over Egypt. And they will fill the land with the slain.

11. On i njegov narod s njime - najokrutniji meðu narodima - bit æe dovedeni da zemlju zatru. I oni æe isukati maè na Egipat i svu æe mu zemlju truplima ispuniti.

12. And I will cause the channels of the rivers to dry up. And I will deliver the land into the hand of the most wicked. And by the hands of foreigners, I will utterly destroy the land and its plenitude. I, the Lord, have spoken.

12. A ja æu isušiti rijeke i zemlju predati u ruke silnicima, opustošit æu zemlju i što je u njoj - rukom tuðinaca. Ja, Jahve, rekoh!'

13. Thus says the Lord God: And I will destroy the graven images, and I will cause the idols of Memphis to cease. And there will no longer be a commander of the land of Egypt. And I will send terror upon the land of Egypt.

13. Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Razorit æu kumire i ništavila istrijebiti iz Memfisa, i neæe više biti knezova u egipatskoj zemlji, a strah æu posijati u zemlji egipatskoj.

14. And I will destroy the land of Pathros, and I will send a fire upon Tahpanhes, and I will execute judgments in Alexandria.

14. Opustošit æu Patros, zapaliti Soan, izvršiti sud na Tebi.

15. And I will pour out my indignation upon Pelusium, the strength of Egypt, and I will kill the multitude of Alexandria.

15. Iskalit æu gnjev nad Sinom, tvrðom egipatskom, istrijebit æu mnoštvo u Tebi.

16. And I will send a fire upon Egypt. Pelusium will be in pain, like a woman giving birth. And Alexandria will be utterly destroyed. And in Memphis, there will be anguish every day.

16. Zapalit æu oganj pod Egiptom: Sin æe uzdrhtati od strave, Teba æe biti osvojena, a Memfis u tjeskobi dan za danom.

17. The young men of Heliopolis and Pibeseth will fall by the sword, and the young women will be led into captivity.

17. Mladiæi Heliopola i Pi-Beseta od maèa æe pasti. A oni æe biti odvedeni u ropstvo!

18. And in Tahpanhes, the day will grow black, when, in that place, I will break the scepters of Egypt. And the arrogance of her authority will fail within her; a gloom will cover her. Then her daughters will be led into captivity.

18. Nad Tafnisom pomrèat æe dan kad ondje slomim jaram egipatski i kad se dokonèa ponos moæi u njemu! Nad njim æe se nadviti oblak, i njegove æe kæeri biti odvedene u ropstvo!

19. And I will execute judgments in Egypt. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”

19. Tako æu izvršiti sud nad Egiptom, i znat æe da sam ja Jahve.'"

20. And it happened that, in the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh of the month, the word of the Lord came, me, saying:

20. Godine jedanaeste, prvoga mjeseca, sedmoga dana doðe mi rijeè Jahvina:

21. “Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. And behold, it has not been wrapped, so that it might be restored to health; it has not been bound with cloths, or bandaged with linen, so that, having recovered strength, it would be able to hold the sword.

21. "Sine èovjeèji, gle, slomih mišicu faraonu, kralju egipatskom! I evo, nisu je ni povili: nisu metnuli lijekove niti su je povojima obavili da je okrijepe kako bi se opet mogla prihvatiti maèa.

22. Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and I will shatter his strong arm, which has already been broken. And I will cast the sword away from his hand.

22. Stoga ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Evo me protiv faraona, kralja egipatskoga, da mu slomim obje ruke, i zdravu i slomljenu, i da mu maè izbijem iz ruke!

23. And I will disperse Egypt among the nations, and I will scatter them among the lands.

23. Razagnat æu Egipæane meðu narode i rasijati ih po zemljama!

24. And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon. And I will put my sword into his hand. And I will break the arms of Pharaoh. And they will groan acutely, when they are slain before his face.

24. Ojaèat æu ruke kralju babilonskom i maè æu svoj staviti u njegovu ruku; a faraonu æu slomiti ruke te æe stenjati pred neprijateljem kao ranjenik.

25. And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon. And the arms of Pharaoh will fall. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have given my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and when he will have extended it over the land of Egypt.

25. Da, ojaèat æu ruke kralju babilonskom, a ruke æe faraonove klonuti. I znat æe se da sam ja Jahve kad metnem maè svoj u ruke kralju babilonskom i on ga zavitla nad zemljom egipatskom.

26. And I will disperse Egypt among the nations, and I will scatter them among the lands. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”

26. Raspršit æu Egipæane meðu narode i rasijati ih po zemljama. I znat æe da sam ja Jahve.'"

30:1-3 - The word of judgment on Egypt is expanded, indicating that God will bring destruction upon the entire Egyptian land. This chapter highlights the scope of God's judgment, which extends to all nations that oppose His will (see also Jeremiah 46:10 and Isaiah 19:16).

30:4-5 - God promises to attack not only Egypt but also its allies, including Ethiopia, Libya, and other neighboring nations. This divine judgment shows that God's sovereignty encompasses all lands and peoples without exception (see also Amos 1:2 and Jeremiah 46:1-12).

30:6-9 - Egypt's neighboring nations will suffer along with it. Egypt's destruction will profoundly affect the region, symbolizing the impact of a crumbling empire, affecting all the nations that depended on it (see also Ezekiel 32:10 and Jeremiah 48:39).

30:10-12 - God declares that He will use Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, to conquer Egypt, symbolizing that nations cannot escape God's will. This highlights the instrumentalization of pagan empires to accomplish God's purposes (see also Isaiah 10:5-7 and Jeremiah 25:9).

30:18-19 - The desolation of Egypt extends to its capital, Memphis, and the surrounding cities. This radical judgment underscores God's absolute power over all civilizations and His control over the destinies of nations (see also Ezekiel 32:15 and Jeremiah 43:12).

Jeremiah 46:2: "About Egypt. Against the army of Pharaoh Neco, king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish and which Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, defeated in the fourth year of the reign of Jehoiakim, son of Josiah, king of Judah:" - This passage relates to Ezekiel's prophecy against Egypt, showing how other prophets also announced God's judgment on this nation.

Isaiah 19:1: "Warning against Egypt: Lo! The Lord rides on a swift cloud that goes to Egypt. The idols of Egypt tremble before him, and the hearts of the Egyptians melt within." - Like Ezekiel, Isaiah also prophesies against Egypt, demonstrating the consistency of the prophetic message.

Joel 3:19: "But Egypt will become a desolation, and Edom a devastated desert, because of the violence done to the people of Judah, in whose land they shed innocent blood." - Joel also prophesies the judgment of Egypt, echoing the themes of Ezekiel 30.

Zechariah 10:11: "They will pass through the sea of affliction; the waves of the sea will be stilled, and the depths of the Nile will dry up. The pride of Assyria will be humbled, and the scepter of Egypt will depart." - This prophecy of Zechariah complements that of Ezekiel, speaking about the end of Egypt's power.

Revelation 11:8: "Their corpses will be exposed on the main street of the great city, which is figuratively called Sodom and Egypt, where their Lord was also crucified." - This passage uses Egypt as a symbol of opposition to God, reflecting the judgment prophesied in Ezekiel 30.
