Ezekiel 16
1 Again the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
2 Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,
Fili hominis notas fac Ierusalem abominationes suas:
3 and say, Thus says the lord Jehovah to Jerusalem: Thy birth and thy nativity is from the land of the Canaanite. The Amorite was thy father, and thy mother was a Hittite.
et dices: Haec dicit Dominus Deus Ierusalem: Radix tua, et generatio tua de terra Chanaan: pater tuus Amorrhaeus, et mater tua Cethaea.
4 And as for thy nativity, in the day thou were born thy navel was not cut, nor were thou washed in water to cleanse thee. Thou were not salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
Et quando nata es in die ortus tui non est praecisus umbilicus tuus, et aqua non es lota in salutem, nec sale salita, nec involuta pannis.
5 No eye pitied thee, to do any of these things to thee, to have compassion upon thee, but thou were cast out in the open field. For thy person was abhorred, in the day that thou were born.
Non pepercit super te oculus ut faceret tibi unum de his, misertus tui: sed proiecta es super faciem terrae in abiectione animae tuae, in die qua nata es.
6 And when I passed by thee, and saw thee weltering in thy blood, I said to thee, in thy blood, Live! Yea, I said to thee, in thy blood, Live!
Transiens autem per te, vidi te conculcari in sanguine tuo. et dixi tibi cum esses in sanguine tuo: Vive. dixi, inquam, tibi: In sanguine tuo vive.
7 I caused thee to multiply as that which grows in the field, and thou increased and grew great. And thou attained to excellent ornament, thy breasts were fashioned, and thy hair was grown. Yet thou were naked and bare.
Multiplicatam quasi germen agri dedi te: et multiplicata es, et grandis effecta, et ingressa es, et pervenisti ad mundum muliebrem: ubera tua intumuerunt, et pilus tuus germinavit: et eras nuda, et confusione plena.
8 Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love. And I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness. Yea, I swore to thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, says the lord Jehovah, and thou became mine.
Et transivi per te, et vidi te: et ecce tempus tuum, tempus amantium: et expandi amictum meum super te, et operui ignominiam tuam. Et iuravi tibi, et ingressus sum pactum tecum: ait Dominus Deus: et facta es mihi.
9 Then I washed thee with water. Yea, I thoroughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.
Et lavi te aqua, et emundavi sanguinem tuum ex te: et unxi te oleo.
10 I also clothed thee with embroidered work, and shod thee with a certain skin. And I girded thee around with fine linen, and covered thee with silk.
Et vestivi te discoloribus, et calceavi te hyacintho: et cinxi te bysso, et indui te subtilibus.
11 And I decked thee with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck.
Et ornavi te ornamento, et dedi armillas in manibus tuis, et torquem circa collum tuum.
12 And I put a ring upon thy nose, and earrings in thine ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.
Et dedi inaurem super os tuum, et circulos auribus tuis, et coronam decoris in capite tuo.
13 Thus thou were decked with gold and silver, and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and embroidered work. Thou ate fine flour, and honey, and oil. And thou were very beautiful, and thou prospered to royalty.
Et ornata es auro, et argento, et vestita es bysso, et polymito, similam, et mel, et oleum comedisti, et decora facta es vehementer nimis: et profecisti in regnum.
14 And thy renown went forth among the nations for thy beauty. For it was perfect, through my majesty which I had put upon thee, says the lord Jehovah.
Et egressum est nomen tuum in Gentes propter speciem tuam: quia perfecta eras in decore meo, quem posueram super te, dicit Dominus Deus.
15 But thou trusted in thy beauty, and played the harlot because of thy renown, and poured out thy whoredoms on everyone who passed by; his it was.
Et habens fiduciam in pulchritudine tua fornicata es in nomine tuo: et exposuisti fornicationem tuam omni transeunti ut eius fieres.
16 And thou took of thy garments, and made high places for thee, decked with various colors, and played the harlot upon them, things which should not come, nor should it be.
Et sumens de vestimentis meis fecisti tibi excelsa hinc inde consuta: et fornicata es super eis, sicut non est factum, neque futurum est.
17 Thou also took thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and made for thee images of men, and played the harlot with them.
Et tulisti vasa decoris tui de auro meo, atque argento meo, quae dedi tibi: et fecisti tibi imagines masculinas, et fornicata es in eis.
18 And thou took thy embroidered garments, and covered them, and set my oil and my incense before them.
Et sumpsisti vestimenta tua multicoloria, et restita es eis: et oleum meum, et thymiama meum posuisti coram eis.
19 My bread also which I gave thee, fine flour and oil and honey, with which I fed thee, thou even set it before them for a sweet savor, and thus it was, says the lord Jehovah.
Et panem meum, quem dedi tibi, similam, et oleum, et mel, quibus enutrivi te, posuisti in conspectu eorum in odorem suavitatis, et factum est, ait Dominus Deus.
20 Moreover thou have taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou have borne to me, and thou have sacrificed these to them to be devoured. Were thy whoredoms a small matter,
Et tulisti filios tuos, et filias tuas, quas generasti mihi: et immolasti eis ad devorandum. Numquid parva est fornicatio tua?
21 that thou have slain my children, and delivered them up, in causing them to pass through the fire to them?
Immolasti filios meos, et dedisti, illos consecrans, eis.
22 And in all thine abominations and thy whoredoms thou have not remembered the days of thy youth when thou were naked and bare, and were weltering in thy blood.
Et post omnes abominationes tuas, et fornicationes, non es recordata dierum adolescentiae tuae, quando eras nuda, et confusione plena, conculcata in sanguine tuo.
23 And it has come to pass according to all thy wickedness, (woe, woe to thee! says the lord Jehovah),
Et accidit post omnem malitiam tuam (vae, vae tibi, ait Dominus Deus)
24 that thou have built thyself a vaulted place, and have made thee a lofty place in every street.
et aedificasti tibi lupanar, et fecisti tibi prostibulum in cunctis plateis.
25 Thou have built thy lofty place at the head of every way, and have made thy beauty an abomination. And have opened thy feet to everyone who passed by, and multiplied thy whoredom.
Ad omne caput viae aedificasti signum prostitutionis tuae: et abominabilem fecisti decorem tuum: et divisisti pedes tuos omni transeunti, et multiplicasti fornicationes tuas.
26 Thou have also committed fornication with the Egyptians, thy neighbors, great of flesh, and have multiplied thy whoredom, to provoke me to anger.
Et fornicata es cum filiis Aegypti vicinis tuis magnarum carnium: et multiplicasti fornicationem tuam ad irritandum me.
27 Behold therefore, I have stretched out my hand over thee, and have diminished thy portion, and delivered thee to the will of those who hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of thy lewd way.
Ecce ego extendam manum meam super te, et auferam iustificationem tuam: et dabo te in animas odientium te filiarum Palaestinarum, quae erubescunt in via tua scelerata.
28 Thou have played the harlot also with the Assyrians, because thou were insatiable. Yea, thou have played the harlot with them, and yet thou were not satisfied.
Et fornicata es in filiis Assyriorum, eo quod necdum fueris expleta: et postquam fornicata es, nec sic es satiata.
29 Thou have moreover multiplied thy whoredom to the land of traffic, to Chaldea, and yet thou were not satisfied with this.
Et multiplicasti fornicationem tuam in Terra Chanaan cum Chaldaeis: et nec sic satiata es.
30 How weak is thy heart, says the lord Jehovah, seeing thou do all these things, the work of an impudent harlot,
In quo mundabo cor tuum, ait Dominus Deus; cum facias omnia haec opera mulieris meretricis, et procacis?
31 in that thou build thy vaulted place at the head of every way, and make thy lofty place in every street. And have not even been as a harlot, in that thou scorn hire.
Quia fabricasti lupanar tuum in capite omnis viae, et excelsum tuum fecisti in omni platea: nec facta es quasi meretrix fastidio augens pretium,
32 A wife who commits adultery, who takes strangers instead of her husband!
sed quasi mulier adultera, quae super virum suum inducit alienos.
33 They give gifts to all harlots, but thou give thy gifts to all thy lovers, and bribe them, that they may come to thee on every side for thy whoredoms.
Omnibus meretricibus dantur mercedes: tu autem dedisti mercedes cunctis amatoribus tuis, et dona donabas eis vi intrarent ad te undique ad fornicandum tecum.
34 And thou are different from other women in thy whoredoms, in that none follows thee to play the harlot. And whereas thou give a wage, and no wage is given to thee, therefore thou are different.
Factumque est in te contra consuetudinem mulierum in fornicationibus tuis, et post te non erit fornicatio: in eo enim quod dedisti mercedes, et mercedes non accepisti, factum est in te contrarium.
35 Therefore, O harlot, hear the word of Jehovah.
Propterea meretrix audi verbum Domini.
36 Thus says the lord Jehovah: Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness uncovered through thy whoredoms with thy lovers, and because of all the idols of thy abominations, and for the blood of thy sons, that thou gave to them,
Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Quia effusum est aes tuum, et revelata est ignominia tua in fornicationibus tuis super amatores tuos, et super idola abominationum tuarum in sanguine filiorum tuorum, quos dedisti eis:
37 therefore, behold, I will gather all thy lovers, with whom thou have taken pleasure, and all those whom thou have loved, with all those whom thou have hated, I will even gather them against thee on every side. And I will uncover thy nakedness to them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
Ecce ego congregabo omnes amatores tuos, quibus commixta es, et omnes, quos dilexisti cum universis, quos oderas: et congregabo eos super te undique, et nudabo ignominiam tuam coram eis, et videbunt omnem turpitudinem tuam.
38 And I will judge thee, as women who break wedlock and shed blood are judged. And I will bring upon thee the blood of wrath and jealousy.
Et iudicabo te iudiciis adulterarum, et effundentium sanguinem: et dabo te in sanguinem furoris et zeli.
39 I will also give thee into their hand, and they shall throw down thy vaulted place, and break down thy lofty places. And they shall strip thee of thy clothes, and take thy fair jewels, and they shall leave thee naked and bare.
Et dabo te in manus eorum, et destruent lupanar tuum: et demolientur prostibulum tuum: et denudabunt te vestimentis tuis, et auferent vasa decoris tui: et derelinquent te nudam, plenamque ignominia:
40 They shall also bring up a company against thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords.
et adducent super te multitudinem, et lapidabunt te lapidibus, et trucidabunt te gladiis suis.
41 And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women. And I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou shall also give no wage any more.
Et comburent domos tuas igne, et facient in te iudicia in oculis mulierum plurimarum: et desines fornicari, et mercedes ultra non dabis.
42 So I will cause my wrath toward thee to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will no more be angry.
Et requiescet indignatio mea in te: et auferetur zelus meus a te, et quiescam, nec irascar amplius.
43 Because thou have not remembered the days of thy youth, but have raged against me in all these things, therefore, behold, I also will bring thy way upon thy head, says the lord Jehovah. And thou shall not commit this lewdness with all thine abominations.
Eo quod non fueris recordata dierum adolescentiae tuae, et provocasti me in omnibus his: quapropter et ego vias tuas in capite tuo dedi, ait Dominus Deus, et non feci iuxta scelera tua in omnibus abominationibus tuis.
44 Behold, everyone who uses proverbs shall use this proverb against thee, saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter.
Ecce omnis, qui dicit vulgo proverbium, in te assumet illud, dicens: Sicut mater, ita et filia eius.
45 Thou are the daughter of thy mother, who loathes her husband and her sons. And thou are the sister of thy sisters, who loathed their husbands and their sons. Your mother was a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
Filia matris tuae es tu, quae proiecit virum suum, et filios suos: et soror sororum tuarum es tu, quae proiecerunt viros suos, et filios suos: mater vestra Cethaea, et pater vester Amorrhaeus.
46 And thine elder sister is Samaria, who dwells at thy left hand, she and her daughters. And thy younger sister, who dwells at thy right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
Et soror tua maior, Samaria, ipsa et filiae eius, quae habitant ad sinistram tuam: soror autem tua minor te, quae habitat a dextris tuis, Sodoma, et filiae eius.
47 Yet thou have not walked in their ways, nor done according to their abominations, but, like it was a very little thing, thou were more corrupt than they in all thy ways.
Sed nec in viis earum ambulasti, neque secundum scelera earum fecisti pauxillum minus: pene sceleratiora fecisti illis in omnibus viis tuis.
48 As I live, says the lord Jehovah, Sodom thy sister has not done, she nor her daughters, as thou have done, thou and thy daughters.
Vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus, quia non fecit Sodoma soror tua ipsa, et filiae eius, sicut fecisti tu, et filiae tuae.
49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom: pride, fullness of bread, and prosperous ease was in her and in her daughters, and she did not strengthen the hand of a poor and needy man.
Ecce haec fuit iniquitas Sodomae sororis tuae, superbia, saturitas panis et abundantia, et otium ipsius, et filiarum eius: et manum egeno, et pauperi non porrigebant.
50 And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me. Therefore I took them away as I saw fit.
Et elevatae sunt, et fecerunt abominationes coram me: et abstuli eas sicut vidisti.
51 Neither has Samaria committed half of thy sins, but thou have multiplied thine abominations more than they, and have justified thy sisters by all thine abominations which thou have done.
Et Samaria dimidium peccatorum tuorum non peccavit: sed vicisti eas sceleribus tuis, et iustificasti sorores tuas in omnibus abominationibus tuis, quas operata es.
52 Thou also, bear thou thine own shame, in that thou have given judgment for thy sisters, through thy sins that thou have committed more abominable than they. They are more righteous than thou. Yea, be thou also confounded, and bear thy shame, in that thou have justified thy sisters.
Ergo et tu porta confusionem tuam, quae vicisti sorores tuas peccatis tuis, sceleratius agens ab eis: iustificatae sunt enim a te: ergo et tu confundere, et porta ignominiam tuam, quae iustificasti sorores tuas.
53 And I will turn back again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and the captivity of thy captives in the midst of them,
Et convertam restituens eas conversione Sodomorum cum filiabus suis, et conversione Samariae, et filiarum eius: et convertam reversionem tuam in medio earum,
54 that thou may bear thine own shame, and may be ashamed because of all that thou have done, in that thou are a comfort to them.
ut portes ignominiam tuam, et confundaris in omnibus, quae fecisti consolans eas.
55 And thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former estate, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate, and thou and thy daughters shall return to your former estate.
Et soror tua Sodoma, et filiae eius revertentur ad antiquitatem suam: et Samaria, et filiae eius revertentur ad antiquitatem suam: et tu, et filiae tuae revertemini ad antiquitatem vestram.
56 For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride,
Non fuit autem Sodoma soror tua audita in ore tuo, in die superbiae tuae,
57 before thy wickedness was uncovered, as at the time of the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all who are round about her, the daughters of the Philistines, who do despite to thee round about.
antequam revelaretur malitia tua: sicut hoc tempore in opprobrium filiarum Syriae, et cunctarum in circuitu tuo filiarum Palaesthinarum, quae ambiunt te per gyrum.
58 Thou have borne thy lewdness and thine abominations, says Jehovah.
scelus tuum, et ignominiam tuam tu portasti, ait Dominus Deus.
59 For thus says the lord Jehovah: I will also deal with thee as thou have done, who have despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
Quia haec dicit Dominus Deus: Et faciam tibi sicut despexisti iuramentum, ut irritum faceres pactum:
60 Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish to thee an everlasting covenant.
et recordabor ego pacti mei tecum in diebus adolescentiae tuae: et suscitabo tibi pactum sempiternum.
61 Then thou shall remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when thou shall receive thy sisters, thine elder sisters and thy younger, and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.
Et recordaberis viarum tuarum, et confunderis: cum receperis sorores tuas te maiores cum minoribus tuis: et dabo eas tibi in filias, sed non ex pacto tuo.
62 And I will establish my covenant with thee, and thou shall know that I am Jehovah,
Et suscitabo ego pactum meum tecum: et scies quia ego Dominus,
63 that thou may remember, and be confounded, and never open thy mouth any more, because of thy shame, when I have forgiven thee all that thou have done, says the lord Jehovah.
ut recorderis, et confundaris, et non sit tibi ultra aperire os prae confusione tua, cum placatus tibi fuero in omnibus, quae fecisti, ait Dominus Deus.
