Ezekiel 14
1 And there came certain of the elders of Israel unto me, and sat before me.
et venerunt ad me viri seniorum Israhel et sederunt coram me
2 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
3 Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumbling-block of their iniquity before their face: should I be inquired of at all by them?
fili hominis viri isti posuerunt inmunditias suas in cordibus suis et scandalum iniquitatis suae statuerunt contra faciem suam numquid interrogatus respondebo eis
4 Therefore speak to them, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet, I Jehovah will answer him according to this, according to the multitude of his idols:
propter hoc loquere eis et dices ad eos haec dicit Dominus Deus homo homo de domo Israhel qui posuerit inmunditias suas in corde suo et scandalum iniquitatis suae statuerit contra faciem suam et venerit ad prophetam interrogans per eum me ego Dominus respondebo ei in multitudine inmunditiarum suarum
5 that I may take the house of Israel by their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols.
ut capiatur domus Israhel in corde suo quo recesserunt a me in cunctis idolis suis
6 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Return ye, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.
propterea dic ad domum Israhel haec dicit Dominus Deus convertimini et recedite ab idolis vestris et ab universis contaminationibus vestris avertite facies vestras
7 For every one of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, who separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet to inquire of me by him, I Jehovah will answer him by myself;
quia homo homo de domo Israhel et de proselytis quicumque advena fuerit in Israhel si alienatus fuerit a me et posuerit idola sua in corde suo et scandalum iniquitatis suae statuerit contra faciem suam et venerit ad prophetam ut interroget per eum me ego Dominus respondebo ei per me
8 and I will set my face against that man, and will make him desolate, [so that he shall be] for a sign and for proverbs, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people: and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
et ponam faciem meam super hominem illum et faciam eum in exemplum et in proverbium et disperdam eum de medio populi mei et scietis quia ego Dominus
9 And if the prophet be enticed and shall speak a word, I Jehovah have enticed that prophet; and I will stretch out my hand against him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
et propheta cum erraverit et locutus fuerit verbum ego Dominus decepi prophetam illum et extendam manum meam super eum et delebo eum de medio populi mei Israhel
10 And they shall bear their iniquity: the iniquity of the prophet shall be even as the iniquity of the inquirer;
et portabunt iniquitatem suam iuxta iniquitatem interrogantis sic iniquitas prophetae erit
11 that the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, neither make themselves any more unclean with all their transgressions; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God, saith the Lord Jehovah.
ut non erret ultra domus Israhel a me neque polluatur in universis praevaricationibus suis sed sit mihi in populum et ego sim eis in Deum ait Dominus exercituum
12 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
13 Son of man, when a land sinneth against me by working unfaithfulness, and I stretch out my hand upon it, and break the staff of the bread thereof, and send famine upon it, and cut off man and beast from it;
fili hominis terra cum peccaverit mihi ut praevaricetur praevaricans extendam manum meam super eam et conteram virgam panis eius et inmittam in eam famem et interficiam de ea hominem et iumentum
14 though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, should be in it, they should deliver [but] their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord Jehovah.
et si fuerint tres viri isti in medio eius Noe Danihel et Iob ipsi iustitia sua liberabunt animas suas ait Dominus exercituum
15 If I cause evil beasts to pass through the land, and they bereave it, and it become a desolation, so that no one passeth through because of the beasts;
quod si et bestias pessimas induxero super terram ut vastem eam et fuerit invia eo quod non sit pertransiens propter bestias
16 — though these three men should be in it, [as] I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, they should deliver neither sons nor daughters: they only should be delivered, and the land should be a desolation.
tres viri isti qui fuerint in ea vivo ego dicit Dominus Deus quia nec filios nec filias liberabunt sed ipsi soli liberabuntur terra autem desolabitur
17 Or [if] I bring the sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land, so that I cut off man and beast from it,
vel si gladium induxero super terram illam et dixero gladio transi per terram et interfecero de ea hominem et iumentum
18 and these three men should be in it, [as] I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, they should deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only themselves should be delivered.
et tres viri isti fuerint in medio eius vivo ego dicit Dominus Deus non liberabunt filios neque filias sed ipsi soli liberabuntur
19 Or [if] I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast,
si autem et pestilentiam inmisero super terram illam et effudero indignationem meam super eam in sanguine ut auferam ex ea hominem et iumentum
20 and Noah, Daniel, and Job should be in it, [as] I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, they should deliver neither son nor daughter: they should [but] deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
et Noe et Danihel et Iob fuerint in medio eius vivo ego dicit Dominus Deus quia filium et filiam non liberabunt sed ipsi iustitia sua liberabunt animas suas
21 For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the evil beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast!
quoniam haec dicit Dominus Deus quod si et quattuor iudicia mea pessima gladium et famem et bestias malas et pestilentiam misero in Hierusalem ut interficiam de ea hominem et pecus
22 But behold, there shall be left in it those that escape, who shall be brought out of [it], sons and daughters. Behold, they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings; and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, as to all that I have brought upon it.
tamen relinquetur in ea salvatio educentium filios et filias ecce ipsi egredientur ad vos et videbitis viam eorum et adinventiones eorum et consolabimini super malo quod induxi in Hierusalem in omnibus quae inportavi super eam
23 And they shall comfort you, when ye see their way and their doings; and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith the Lord Jehovah.
et consolabuntur vos cum videritis viam eorum et adinventiones eorum et cognoscetis quod non frustra fecerim omnia quae feci in ea ait Dominus Deus
