< Ezekiel 2 >
1 This was the vision of the likeness of the glory of the Lord. And I saw, and I fell upon my face, and I heard the voice of one that spoke. And he said to me: Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak to thee.
Y díjome: Hijo del hombre, está sobre tus pies, y hablaré contigo.
2 And the spirit entered into me after that he spoke to me, and he set me upon my feet: and I heard him speaking to me,
Y entró espíritu en mí después que me habló; y me afirmó sobre mis pies, y oí al que me hablaba.
3 And saying: Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious people, that hath revolted from me, they, and their fathers, have transgressed my covenant even unto this day.
Y díjome: Hijo del hombre, yo te envió a los hijos de Israel, a gentes rebeldes, que se rebelaron contra mí: ellos y sus padres se rebelaron contra mí, hasta este mismo día.
4 And they to whom I send thee are children of a hard face, and of an obstinate heart: and thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord God:
Y a hijos duros de rostros, y fuertes de corazón yo te envío; y decirles has: Así dijo el Señor Jehová.
5 If so be they at least will hear, and if so be they will forbear, for they are a provoking house: and they shall know that there hath been a prophet in the midst of them.
Y ellos no oirán, ni cesarán, porque son casa rebelde: mas conocerán que hubo profeta entre ellos.
6 And thou, O son of man, fear not, neither be thou afraid of their words: for thou art among unbelievers and destroyers, and thou dwellest with scorpions. Fear not their words, neither be thou dismayed at their looks: for they are a provoking house.
Y tú, o! hijo del hombre, no temas de ellos, ni hayas miedo de sus palabras, porque son rebeldes; y espinos viven contigo, y tu moras con abrojos: no hayas miedo de sus palabras, ni temas delante de ellos, porque son casa rebelde.
7 And thou shalt speak my words to them, if perhaps they will hear, and forbear: for they provoke me to anger.
Hablarles has mis palabras, mas no oirán, ni cesarán, porque son rebeldes.
8 But thou, O son of man, hear all that I say to thee: and do not thou provoke me, as that house provoketh me: open thy mouth, and eat what I give thee.
Mas tú, hijo del hombre, oye lo que yo te hablo: No seas rebelde como la casa rebelde: abre tu boca, y come lo que yo te doy.
9 And I looked, and behold, a hand was sent to me, wherein was a book rolled up:
Y miré, y, he aquí, una mano me fue enviada, y en ella había un libro envuelto.
10 and he spread it before me, and it was written within and without: and there were written in it lamentations, and canticles, and woe.
Y extendióle delante de mí, y estaba escrito delante y detrás; y estaban en él escritas endechas, y lamentación, y ayes.
