Ezekiel, 2

1. This was the vision of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And I saw, and I fell on my face, and I heard the voice of someone speaking. And he said to me: “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you.”

1. I reèe mi: "Sine èovjeèji, na noge se, da s tobom govorim!"

2. And after this was spoken to me, the Spirit entered into me, and he set me on my feet. And I heard him speaking to me,

2. OI uðe u me duh, kako mi progovori, te me podiže na noge i ja èuh glas onoga koji mi govoraše.

3. and saying: “Son of man, I am sending you to the sons of Israel, to an apostate nation, which has withdrawn from me. They and their fathers have betrayed my covenant, even to this day.

3. I reèe mi: "Sine èovjeèji, šaljem te k sinovima Izraelovim, k narodu odmetnièkom što se odvrže od mene. Oni i oci njihovi griješili su protiv mene sve do dana današnjega.

4. And those to whom I am sending you are sons with a hard face and an unyielding heart. And you shall say to them: ‘Thus says the Lord God.’

4. Šaljem te k sinovima tvrdokorna pogleda i okorjela srca. Reci im: Ovako govori Jahve Gospod!

5. Perhaps it may be that they will hear, and perhaps they may be quieted. For they are a provoking house. And they shall know that there has been a prophet in their midst.

5. I poslušali oni ili ne poslušali - rod su odmetnièki - neka znaju da je prorok meðu vama.

6. But as for you, son of man, you should not fear them, and you should not dread their words. For you are among unbelievers and subversives, and you are living with scorpions. You should not fear their words, and you should not dread their faces. For they are a provoking house.

6. A ti, sine èovjeèji, ne boj ih se i ne plaši se rijeèi njihovih: 'Trnje te okružuje i sjediš meðu samim skorpijama.' Ne plaši se rijeèi njihovih i ne boj se nimalo njihova pogleda jer oni su rod odmetnièki.

7. Therefore, you shall speak my words to them, so that perhaps they may hear and be quieted. For they are provoking.

7. Govori im moje rijeèi, poslušali oni ili ne poslušali, jer rod su odmetnièki.

8. But as for you, son of man, listen to all that I say to you. And do not choose to be provoking, as that house is a provoker. Open your mouth, and eat whatever I give to you.”

8. A ti, sine èovjeèji, poslušaj što æu ti sada reæi: Ne budi odmetnik kao što su oni rod odmetnièki! Otvori usta i progutaj što æu ti sada dati!"

9. And I looked, and behold: a hand was put forth toward me; there was a scroll rolled up in it. And he spread it out before me, and there was writing on the inside and on the outside. And there were written in it lamentations, and verses, and woes.

9. I pogledah, a to ruka k meni ispružena i u njoj, gle, svitak knjige.

10.

10. I razvi se knjiga preda mnom: bijaše ispisana izvana i iznutra, a u njoj napisano: "Naricanje! Jecanje! Jauk!"
