Ezekiel 15

KING JAMES BIBLE	Biblija Hrvatski
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,	1 I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
2 Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the forest?	2 »Sine čovječji! U čemu je trs loze bolji od drugih šumskih drveta?
3 Shall wood be taken thereof to do any work? or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?	3 Služi li da se od njega štogod načini? Djelja li se od njega klin da se o njega što objesi?
4 Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire devoureth both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned. Is it meet for any work?	4 Gle, baca se u oganj da izgori: kad mu oganj sažeže oba kraja i sredinu spali, može li još čemu poslužiti?
5 Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work: how much less shall it be meet yet for any work, when the fire hath devoured it, and it is burned?	5 Eto, ni onda kad bijaše čitav ništa se od njega ne mogaše načiniti. Pa kako će, dakle, čemu poslužiti kad ga plamen sažga?«
6 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.	6 Zato ovako govori Jahve Gospod: »Kao što sam trs loze, među drugim drvetima, bacio u oganj da izgori, tako ću postupati i s Jeruzalemcima!
7 And I will set my face against them; they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I set my face against them.	7 Upravit ću lice svoje na njih, i kada se iz jednog ognja izbave, drugi će ih proždrijeti. I spoznat ćete da sam ja Jahve kad lice svoje upravim na njih
8 And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass, saith the Lord GOD.	8 i svu im zemlju opustošim jer mi bijahu nevjerni!« – riječ je Jahve Gospoda.
