< Ezekiel 5 >

1 And thou, son of man, take thee a sharp sword. As a barber's razor thou shall take it to thee, and shall cause it to pass upon thy head and upon thy beard. Then take thee balances to weigh and divide the hair.
Et tu fili hominis sume tibi gladium acutum, radentem pilos: et assumes eum, et duces per caput tuum, et per barbam tuam: et assumes tibi stateram ponderis, et divides eos.
2 A third part thou shall burn in the fire in the midst of the city when the days of the siege are fulfilled, and thou shall take a third part, and smite with the sword round about it, and a third part thou shall scatter to the wind. And I will draw out a sword after them.
Tertiam partem igne combures in medio civitatis, iuxta completionem dierum obsidionis: et assumes tertiam partem, et concides gladio in circuitu eius: tertiam vero aliam disperges in ventum, et gladium nudabo post eos.
3 And thou shall take from it a few in number, and bind them in thy skirts.
Et sumes inde parvum numerum: et ligabis eos in summitate pallii tui.
4 And of these again thou shall take, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire. From there a fire shall come forth into all the house of Israel.
Et ex eis rursum tolles, et proiicies eos in medio ignis, et combures eos igne: et ex eo egredietur ignis in omnem domum Israel.
5 Thus says the lord Jehovah: This is Jerusalem. I have set her in the midst of the nations, and countries are round about her.
Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ista est Ierusalem, in medio Gentium posui eam, et in circuitu eius terras.
6 And she has rebelled against my ordinances in doing wickedness more than the nations, and against my statutes more than the countries that are round about her, for they have rejected my ordinances, and as for my statutes, they have not walked in them.
Et contempsit iudicia mea, ut plus esset impia quam Gentes: et praecepta mea ultra quam terrae, quae in circuitu eius sunt. iudicia enim ea proiecerunt, et in praeceptis meis non ambulaverunt.
7 Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Because ye are more disorderly than the nations that are round about you, and have not walked in my statutes, nor have kept my ordinances, no, ye have not even done according to the ordinances of the nations that are round about you,
Idcirco haec dicit Dominus Deus: Quia superastis Gentes, quae in circuitu vestro sunt, et in praeceptis meis non ambulastis, et iudicia mea non fecistis, et iuxta iustitias Gentium, quae in circuitu vestro sunt, non estis operati;
8 therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I, even I, am against thee, and I will execute judgments in the midst of thee in the sight of the nations.
Ideo haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ad te, et ipse ego faciam in medio tui iudicia in oculis Gentium.
9 And I will do in thee that which I have not done, and of which I will not do any more the like, because of all thine abominations.
et faciam in te quod non feci, et quibus similia ultra non faciam propter omnes abominationes tuas.
10 Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst of thee, and the sons shall eat their fathers. And I will execute judgments on thee, and I will scatter to all the winds the whole remnant of thee.
Ideo patres comedent filios suos in medio tui, et filii comedent patres suos, et faciam in te iudicia, et ventilabo universas reliquias tuas in omnem ventum.
11 Therefore, as I live, says the lord Jehovah, surely, because thou have defiled my sanctuary with all thy detestable things, and with all thine abominations, therefore I also will diminish thee, nor shall my eye spare. And I also will have no pity.
Idcirco vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus: Nisi pro eo quod sanctum meum violasti in omnibus offensionibus tuis, et in cunctis abominationibus tuis: ego quoque confringam, et non parcet oculus meus, et non miserebor.
12 A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and they shall be consumed with famine in the midst of thee, and a third part shall fall by the sword round about thee, and a third part I will scatter to all the winds, and will draw out a sword after them.
Tertia pars tui peste morietur, et fame consumetur in medio tui: et tertia pars tui in gladio cadet in circuitu tuo: tertiam vero partem tuam in omnem ventum dispergam, et gladium evaginabo post eos.
13 Thus my anger shall be accomplished, and I will cause my wrath toward them to rest, and I shall be comforted. And they shall know that I, Jehovah, have spoken in my zeal, when I have accomplished my wrath upon them.
Et complebo furorem meum, et requiescere faciam indignationem meam in eis, et consolabor: et scient quia ego Dominus locutus sum in zelo meo, cum implevero indignationem meam in eis.
14 Moreover I will make thee a desolation and a reproach among the nations that are round about thee, in the sight of all who pass by.
Et dabo te in desertum, et in opprobrium Gentibus, quae in circuitu tuo sunt, in conspectu omnis praetereuntis.
15 So it shall be a reproach and a taunt, a lesson and an astonishment, to the nations that are round about thee, when I shall execute judgments on thee in anger and in wrath, and in wrathful rebukes-I, Jehovah, have spoken it-
Et eris opprobrium, et blasphemia, exemplum, et stupor in Gentibus, quae in circuitu tuo sunt, cum fecero in te iudicia in furore, et in indignatione, et in increpationibus irae.
16 when I shall send upon them the evil arrows of famine that are for destruction, which I will send to destroy you. And I will increase the famine upon you, and will break your staff of bread.
Ego Dominus locutus sum: Quando misero sagittas famis pessimas in eos: quae erunt mortiferae, et quas mittam ut disperdam vos: et famem congregabo super vos, et conteram in vobis baculum panis.
17 And I will send upon you famine and evil beasts, and they shall bereave thee. And pestilence and blood shall pass through thee. And I will bring the sword upon thee. I, Jehovah, have spoken it.
Et immittam in vos famem, et bestias pessimas usque ad internecionem: et pestilentia, et sanguis transibunt per te, et gladium inducam super te. ego Dominus locutus sum.
