Chapter 17
1
Dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
2
“Sine čovječji, smisli zagonetku i iznesi prispodobu domu Izraelovu! Reci:
3
'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Velik orao, velikih krila, duga perja, gusta, šarena paperja, doletje na Libanon i zgrabi cedrov vrh;
4
odlomi mu najvišu grančicu, odnese je u zemlju trgovaca i spusti je u grad prodavača.
5
Onda uze izdanak iz zemlje, u plodnu ga njivu posadi, kraj obilnih voda stavi, kao vrbu usadi.
6
Izdanak proklija, bujan izbi čokot, onizak izraste, mladice mu k orlu segnuše, a pod njim mu žilje bješe; u bujan se razvi čokot, potjera izdanke, mladice razgrana.
7
Bijaše i drugi orao, velik i velikih krila, gusta perja. I gle, čokot k njemu žilje pruži, k njemu upravi grančice svoje da ga natapa bolje od tla u koje bi zasađen.
8
Na plodnoj njivi, kraj obilnih voda, bješe zasađen: mogao je tjerat' mladice, uroditi rodom, k'o veličanstveni trs izrasti.'
9
Reci: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Hoće l' uspijevati? Neće l' mu orao sve žilje izguliti? Neće l' mu sve plodove potrgati? Neće l' mu sve mladice, čim izbiju, sasušiti? Da, i bez snažne mišice, i bez mnoštva naroda, iščupat će ga iz korijena!
10
Gle, zasađen je! Hoće l' uspijevati? Čim ga takne istočnjak, neće l' sav usahnuti? Da, na lijehama iz kojih niče uvenut će.'”
11
Dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
12
“Reci domu odmetničkome: 'Zar ne znate što ovo znači?' Reci im: 'Eto, dođe kralj babilonski u Jeruzalem, zarobi mu kralja i sve knezove, odvede ih k sebi u Babilon.
13
Odvede i izdanak iz kraljevskoga koljena, sklopi s njima savez i zakletvom se obveza, pošto odvede sve mogućnike iz zemlje,
14
da će kraljevstvo ostati neznatno i da se neće dizati, nego će čuvati i držati savez s njime.
15
Ali se on od njega odmetnu; poslanike uputi u Egipat, tražeći od njega konje i jaku vojsku. Hoće li uspjeti? Može li umaći onaj tko tako radi? Raskinu savez, pa da umakne?
16
Života mi moga, riječ je Jahve Gospoda: jer prezre zakletvu kralja koji ga na prijestolje posadi i razvrže savez s njime, u njegovoj će zemlji umrijeti, usred Babilona!
17
Svojom silnom vojskom i mnoštvom naroda faraon mu neće pomoći u boju kad onaj digne nasipe i sagradi kule opsadne da mu zatre mnogo ljudstvo.
18
Prezreo je zakletvu, razvrgao savez. Da, iako ruku bijaše dao, sve to učini! Ne, neće umaći!'
19
Stoga ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Života mi moga, zakletvu što je prezre i savez što ga razvrže oborit ću na glavu njegovu!
20
Mrežu ću nad njim razapeti i uhvatit će se u moju zamku, pa ću ga odvesti u Babilon i ondje mu suditi zbog nevjere kojom mi se iznevjeri.
21
Cvijet vojske njegove od mača će pasti, a ostatak se raspršiti u sve vjetrove. I spoznat ćete da ja, Jahve, tako rekoh.'
22
Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'S vrha cedra velikoga, s vrška mladih grana njegovih, odlomit ću grančicu i posadit' je na gori visokoj, najvišoj.
23
Na najvišoj gori izraelskoj nju ću zasaditi: razgranat će se ona, plodom uroditi.
24
I sve će poljsko drveće znati da ja sam Jahve koji visoko drvo ponizujem, a nisko uzvisujem; zeleno drvo sušim, a drvu suhu dajem da rodi. Ja, Jahve, rekoh i učinit ću!'”
Ezekiel
Chapter 17
1
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2
Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable unto the house of Israel;
3
And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; A great eagle with great wings, longwinged, full of feathers, which had divers colours, came unto Lebanon, and took the highest branch of the cedar:
4
He cropped off the top of his young twigs, and carried it into a land of traffick; he set it in a city of merchants.
5
He took also of the seed of the land, and planted it in a fruitful field; he placed it by great waters, and set it as a willow tree.
6
And it grew, and became a spreading vine of low stature, whose branches turned toward him, and the roots thereof were under him: so it became a vine, and brought forth branches, and shot forth sprigs.
7
There was also another great eagle with great wings and many feathers: and, behold, this vine did bend her roots toward him, and shot forth her branches toward him, that he might water it by the furrows of her plantation.
8
It was planted in a good soil by great waters, that it might bring forth branches, and that it might bear fruit, that it might be a goodly vine.
9
Say thou, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Shall it prosper? shall he not pull up the roots thereof, and cut off the fruit thereof, that it wither? it shall wither in all the leaves of her spring, even without great power or many people to pluck it up by the roots thereof.
10
Yea, behold, being planted, shall it prosper? shall it not utterly wither, when the east wind toucheth it? it shall wither in the furrows where it grew.
11
¶ Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
12
Say now to the rebellious house, Know ye not what these things mean? tell them, Behold, the king of Babylon is come to Jerusalem, and hath taken the king thereof, and the princes thereof, and led them with him to Babylon;
13
And hath taken of the king’s seed, and made a covenant with him, and hath taken an oath of him: he hath also taken the mighty of the land:
14
That the kingdom might be base, that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping of his covenant it might stand.
15
But he rebelled against him in sending his ambassadors into Egypt, that they might give him horses and much people. Shall he prosper? shall he escape that doeth such things? or shall he break the covenant, and be delivered?
16
As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely in the place where the king dwelleth that made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he brake, even with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die.
17
Neither shall Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company make for him in the war, by casting up mounts, and building forts, to cut off many persons:
18
Seeing he despised the oath by breaking the covenant, when, lo, he had given his hand, and hath done all these things, he shall not escape.
19
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; As I live, surely mine oath that he hath despised, and my covenant that he hath broken, even it will I recompense upon his own head.
20
And I will spread my net upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will plead with him there for his trespass that he hath trespassed against me.
21
And all his fugitives with all his bands shall fall by the sword, and they that remain shall be scattered toward all winds: and ye shall know that I the LORD have spoken it.
22
¶ Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also take of the highest branch of the high cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the top of his young twigs a tender one, and will plant it upon an high mountain and eminent:
23
In the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it: and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a goodly cedar: and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing; in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell.
24
And all the trees of the field shall know that I the LORD have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree, have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish: I the LORD have spoken and have done it.
