Ezekiel 11
1 And a spirit bore me up, and brought me unto the east gate of the house of the Lord, which looketh eastward: and behold, there were at the entrance of the gate five and twenty men; and I saw in the midst of them Yaazanyah the son of 'Azzur, and Pelatyahu the son of Benayahu, princes of the people.
Et elevavit me spiritus, et introduxit me ad portam domus Domini orientalem, quae respicit ad solis ortum: et ecce in introitu portae viginti quinque viri: et vidi in medio eorum Iezoniam filium Azur, et Pheltiam filium Banaiae, principes populi.
2 Then said he unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise wickedness, and give evil counsel in this city;
Dixitque ad me: Fili hominis, hi sunt viri, qui cogitant iniquitatem, et tractant consilium pessimum in urbe ista,
3 Who say, [The evil] is not near; so let us build houses: this [city] is the pot, and we are the flesh.
dicentes: Nonne dudum aedificatae sunt domus? haec est lebes, nos autem carnes.
4 Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man.
Idcirco vaticinare de eis, vaticinare fili hominis.
5 And the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak, Thus hath said the Lord, Thus have ye said, O house of Israel; and whatever cometh into your mind, do I know full well.
Et irruit in me spiritus Domini, et dixit ad me: Loquere: Haec dicit Dominus: Sic locuti estis domus Israel, et cogitationes cordis vestri ego novi.
6 Ye have multiplied those slain by you in this city, and ye have filled its streets with the slain.
Plurimos occidistis in urbe hac, et implestis vias eius interfectis.
7 Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Those slain by you whom ye have struck down in the midst of it, —they are the flesh, and this place is the pot; but you are to be removed out of the midst of it.
Propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus: Interfecti vestri, quos posuistis in medio eius, hi sunt carnes, et haec est lebes: et educam vos de medio eius.
8 The sword have ye feared: and the sword will I bring over you, saith the Lord Eternal.
Gladium metuistis, et gladium inducam super vos, ait Dominus Deus.
9 And I will remove you out of the midst of it, and I will give you up into the hand of strangers, and will execute punishments among you.
Et eiiciam vos de medio eius, daboque vos in manu hostium, et faciam in vobis iudicia.
10 By the sword shall ye fall; on the boundary of Israel will I judge you: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
Gladio cadetis: in finibus Israel iudicabo vos, et scietis quia ego Dominus.
11 This place shall not be unto you as a pot, so that you should be as flesh in the midst of it; but on the boundary of Israel will I judge you.
Haec non erit vobis in lebetem, et vos non eritis in medio eius in carnes: in finibus Israel iudicabo vos.
12 And ye shall know that I am the Lord: because in my statutes have ye not walked, and my ordinances have ye not executed; but ye have done after the ordinances of the nations that are round about you.
Et scietis quia ego Dominus: quia in praeceptis meis non ambulastis, et iudicia mea non fecistis, sed iuxta iudicia Gentium, quae in circuitu vestro sunt, estis operati.
13 And it came to pass, as I was prophesying, that Pelatyahu the son of Benayah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah Lord Eternal! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?
Et factum est, cum prophetarem, Pheltias filius Banaiae mortuus est: et cecidi in faciem meam clamans voce magna, et dixi: Heu, heu, heu Domine Deus: consummationem tu facis reliquiarum Israel?
14 Then came the word of the Lord unto me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
15 Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and the whole house of Israel altogether, are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Remain you far from the Lord: unto us is this land given for a possession.
Fili hominis, fratres tui, viri propinqui tui, et omnis domus Israel, universi, quibus dixerunt habitatores Ierusalem: Longe recedite a Domino, nobis data est terra in possessionem.
16 Therefore say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Although I have removed them far away among the nations, and although I have scattered them among the countries: yet will I be to them as a minor sanctuary in the countries whither they are come.
Propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus, quia longe feci eos in Gentibus, et quia dispersi eos in terris: ero eis in sanctificationem modicam in terris, ad quas venerunt.
17 Therefore say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will both gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries whether ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
Propterea loquere: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Congregabo vos de populis, et adunabo de terris, in quibus dispersi estis, daboque vobis humum Israel.
18 And they shall come thither, and they shall remove all its detestable things, and all its abominations out of it.
Et ingredientur illuc, et auferent omnes offensiones, cunctasque abominationes eius de illa.
19 And I will give them one single heart, and a new spirit will I put within you; and I will remove the heart of stone out of their body, and I will give unto them a heart of flesh:
Et dabo eis cor unum, et spiritum novum tribuam in visceribus eorum: et auferam cor lapideum de carne eorum, et dabo eis cor carneum:
20 In order that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them; and they shall be unto me for a people, and I will indeed be unto them for a God.
Ut in praeceptis meis ambulent, et iudicia mea custodiant, faciantque ea: et sint mihi in populum, et ego sim eis in Deum.
21 But as for those whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, their way do I bring upon their own head, saith the Lord Eternal.
Quorum cor post offendicula et abominationes suas ambulat, horum viam in capite suo ponam, dicit Dominus Deus.
22 Then did the cherubim lift up their wings, and the wheels at the same time with them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
Et elevaverunt cherubim alas suas, et rotae cum eis: et gloria Dei Israel erat super ea.
23 And the glory of the Lord ascended from the midst of the city, and halted upon the mount which is on the east side of the city.
Et ascendit gloria Domini de medio civitatis, stetitque super montem, qui est ad Orientem urbis.
24 But a spirit bore me up, and brought me into Chaldea, to those in exile, in the appearance through the spirit of God: and then ascended away from me the appearance which I had seen.
Et spiritus levavit me, adduxitque in Chaldaeam ad transmigrationem, in visione in spiritu Dei: et sublata est a me visio, quam videram.
25 Then did I speak unto those in exile all the things that the Lord had shown me.
Et locutus sum ad transmigrationem omnia verba Domini, quae ostenderat mihi.
