Ezekiel, 24

1. And the word of the Lord came to me, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, saying:

1. Godine devete, devetoga mjeseca, desetoga dana, doðe mi rijeè Jahvina:

2. “Son of man, write for yourself the name of this day, on which the king of Babylon was confirmed against Jerusalem today.

2. "Sine èovjeèji, zapiši ovaj dan: upravo danas kralj babilonski zaposjede Jeruzalem.

3. And you shall speak, through a proverb, a parable to the inciting house. And you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord God: Set out a cooking pot; set it out, I say, and put water into it.

3. Pripovijedaj domu odmetnièkom prispodobu. Reci im: Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Pristavi lonac, pristavi i nalij vode u nj!

4. Pile together within it every morsel, every good piece, the thigh and the shoulder, the choice pieces and those full of bones.

4. Baci u nj komade, sve najbolje komade mesa, but i pleæe! Napuni ga ponajboljim kostima!

5. Take the fattest from the flock, and arrange also a heap of bones under it. Its cooking has boiled over, and its bones in its midst have been thoroughly cooked.

5. Uzmi najbolje od stada. Pod loncem vatru naloži. Neka dobro uzavri, neka se u njemu skuhaju i kosti.'

6. Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Woe to the city of blood, to the cooking pot that has rust in it, and whose rust has not gone out of it! Cast it out piece by piece! No lot has fallen upon it.

6. Jer ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Jao gradu krvnièkom, zahrðalu loncu s kojega se hrða ne skida! A zatim komad po komad iz njega izvadi, ali za nj ne bacaj kÓockÄe!

7. For her blood is in her midst; she has shed it upon the smoothest rock. She has not shed it upon the ground, so that it could be covered with dust.

7. Jer krv je njegova u njemu - na golu je kamenu ostavi, po zemlji je ne razlij gdje bi je prašina mogla prekriti!

8. So shall I bring my indignation over her, and take my vengeance. I have presented her blood upon the smoothest rock, so that it would not be covered.

8. Da se gnjev moj raspali, da mu odmazdim, ostavih krv njegovu na kamenu golom, da se ne pokrije.'

9. Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Woe to the city of blood, out of which I will make a great funeral pyre.

9. Stoga ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Jao gradu krvnièkome, jer æu veliku lomaèu naložiti!

10. Pile together the bones, which I will burn with fire. The flesh shall be consumed, and the entire composition shall be boiled, and the bones shall deteriorate.

10. Skupi drva, vatru potpali, skuhaj meso, primiješaj zaèina, nek' izgore i kosti!

11. Also, place it empty on burning coals, so that it may be heated, and its brass may melt. And let the filth of it be melted in its midst, and let its rust be consumed.

11. A zatim ga prazna na žeravicu pristavi da mjed mu se usija i neèistoæa njegova sva se rastopi, da se uništi hrða na njemu!

12. There has been much sweat and labor, and yet its extensive rust has not gone out of it, not even by fire.

12. Grdne li muke! Ali se velika hrða ne dade s njega skinuti: i vatri odolje.

13. Your uncleanness is execrable. For I wanted to cleanse you, and you have not been cleansed from your filth. So then, neither will you be cleansed before I cause my indignation over you to cease.

13. Sramotan je grijeh tvoj: htjedoh te oèistiti, ali se ti ne htjede od grijeha oèistiti; i zbog toga se više neæeš oèistiti dok nad tobom ne iskalim gnjev svoj!

14. I, the Lord, have spoken. It shall happen, and I will act. I will not pass over, nor be lenient, nor be placated. I will judge you according to your ways and according to your intentions, says the Lord.”

14. Ja, Jahve, rekoh! I rijeè æu ispuniti; neæu popustiti: I neæu se smilovati niti æu se pokajati! Sudit æu te po putovima tvojim i po djelima tvojim! - rijeè je Jahve Gospoda."

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

15. I doðe mi rijeè Jahvina:

16. “Son of man, behold, I am taking away from you, with a stroke, the desire of your eyes. And you shall not lament, and you shall not weep. And your tears shall not flow down.

16. "Sine èovjeèji, evo, nenadanom smræu oduzet æu ti radost oèinju! Ne tuguj, ne plaèi i ne roni suza!

17. Groan silently; you shall make no mourning for the dead. Let the band of your crown be on you, and let your shoes be on your feet. And you shall not cover your face, nor shall you eat the food of those who mourn.”

17. Jecaj tiho, ali ne žali kao što se za mrtvima žali! I povij oko glave povez, a na noge obuj sandale. Ne prekrivaj brade i ne jedi žalobnièke pogaèe."

18. Therefore, I spoke to the people in the morning. And my wife died in the evening. And in the morning, I did just as he had instructed me.

18. Ujutro tako prorokovah narodu, a uveèe mi žena umrije te sutradan uradih kao što mi bijaše zapovjeðeno.

19. And the people said to me: “Why won’t you explain to us what these things signify, which you are doing?”

19. Narod me na to zapita: "Neæeš li nam reæi što znaèi za nas to što ti radiš?"

20. And I said to them: “The word of the Lord came to me, saying:

20. Ja im odgovorih: "Doðe mi rijeè Jahvina:

21. ‘Speak to the house of Israel: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will defile my sanctuary, the pride of your realm, and the desire of your eyes, and the dread of your soul. Your sons and your daughters, whom you have forsaken, will fall by the sword.’

21. "Reci domu Izraelovu: Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Evo, oskvrnut æu svoje Svetište, vaš ponos snažni, radost vam oèinju i èežnju duše vaše! I sinovi i kæeri koje ostaviste, od maèa æe pasti!

22. And so, you shall do just as I have done. You shall not cover your faces, and you shall not eat the food of those who mourn.

22. Tada æete uraditi kao što i ja uradih: neæete prekrivati brade i neæete jesti žalobnièke pogaèe!

23. You shall have crowns on your heads, and shoes on your feet. You shall not lament, and you shall not weep. Instead, you will waste away in your iniquities, and each one will groan to his brother.

23. Povit æete povez oko glave i obuti na noge sandale! I neæete više tugovati ni plakati, nego æete èiljeti zbog svojih nedjela i jecati jedan za drugim!

24. ‘And Ezekiel shall be a portent for you. In accord with all that he has done, so shall you do, when this will happen. And you shall know that I am the Lord God.’ ”

24. A Ezekiel æe vam biti primjer: uèinit æete sve što je i on èinio. Kad se to zbude, spoznat æete da sam ja Jahve!'

25. “And as for you, son of man, behold, in the day when I will take away from them their strength, and the joy of their dignity, and the desire of their eyes, in which their souls find rest: their sons and their daughters,

25. A ti, sine èovjeèji, doista u dan kad im oduzmem snagu, diènu radost njihovu, radost im oèinju, slast duše njihove, sinove i kæeri njihove -

26. in that day, when one who is fleeing will come to you, so that he may report to you,

26. u taj æe dan k tebi stiæi bjegunac da ti to dojavi!

27. in that day, I say, your mouth shall be opened to him who has fled. And you shall speak, and you shall no longer be silent. And you shall be for them a portent. And you shall know that I am the Lord.”

27. U taj æe se dan tvoja usta otvoriti, i ti æeš tom bjeguncu progovoriti; neæeš više biti nijem. I tako æeš im biti znak. I oni æe spoznati da sam ja Jahve!"

24:1-2 - God commands Ezekiel to prophesy about the city of Jerusalem, which is about to be besieged and destroyed. This event marks the beginning of a period of suffering for Israel, but also of judgment on their disobedience (see also Jeremiah 34:1-7 and Revelation 18:2-10).

24:3-14 - The allegory of the cauldron and the meat is used to illustrate God's judgment on Jerusalem. The city will be purified through the fire of judgment, but the destruction will be profound and painful, demonstrating the unrelenting nature of God's wrath against sin (see also Jeremiah 7:30-34 and Revelation 20:15).

24:15-18 - The death of Ezekiel's wife is a sign to the people of Judah, symbolizing the mourning that will follow the destruction of Jerusalem. God instructs Ezekiel not to mourn, showing that pain and suffering are part of God's plan to purify His people (see also 2 Samuel 12:15-23 and Matthew 24:2).

24:19-24 - The people of Israel question Ezekiel about the meaning of their lack of lamentation, and he explains that it symbolizes the pain that will be felt by all the inhabitants of Jerusalem after its fall (see also Lamentations 1:1-2 and Luke 23:28-31).

24:25-27 - God promises to bring new hope after the judgment. He announces that the prophet will be restored as a sign to the people, and the truth will be revealed when Jerusalem falls, making it clear that judgment is not the end but part of a redemptive plan (see also Jeremiah 31:16-17 and Matthew 24:30-31).

Kapcsolódó versek Ezekiel, 24:

Ezekiel chapter 24 marks the beginning of the siege of Jerusalem. How does God communicate this crucial event? This powerful text uses two parables: the boiling pot and the death of Ezekiel's wife. The chapter covers themes such as inevitable judgment, purification through suffering, and the need for total submission to God. Ezekiel 24 also highlights the prophetic role of symbolic actions. Ponder with us five biblical passages that relate to the impactful messages of this symbolic chapter.

2 Kings 25:1: "So in the ninth year of Zedekiah's reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, marched against Jerusalem with his entire army. He camped in front of the city and built attack ramps around it." - This verse describes the beginning of the siege of Jerusalem, which is symbolized by the parable of the pot in Ezekiel 24.

Lamentations 4:11: "The Lord gave vent to his anger and poured out his burning indignation; He set a fire in Zion that consumed its foundations." - Lamentations describes the destruction of Jerusalem, which is prophesied in Ezekiel 24.

Jeremiah 16:5-7: "For thus says the Lord: 'Do not enter a house where there is mourning; do not cry or show sympathy, because I have withdrawn my blessing, my love and my compassion from these people,' declares the Lord. 'Both the great and the small will die in this land. They will not be buried or mourned, and no one will cut their bodies or shave their heads because of them. No one will offer food to comfort those who mourn the dead; not even for the loss of father or mother will the cup of consolation be offered'." - This passage from Jeremiah has parallels with the command given to Ezekiel not to mourn the death of his wife in Ezekiel 24.

Amos 8:10: "I will turn your parties into a wake and all your songs into lamentation. I will make you all wear mourning clothes and shave your heads. I will make that day a time of mourning for an only son, and his end will be a terrible day." - Amos prophesies a time of mourning, similar to the symbolism used in Ezekiel 24.

1 Peter 4:17: "For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and, if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?" - This verse reflects the theme of judgment beginning with the house of God, which is central to Ezekiel 24.
