Ezekiel 11

1 And [the] Spirit lifts me up, and it brings me to the east gate of the house of YHWH, that is facing the east, and behold, at the opening of the gate [are] twenty-five men, and I see in their midst Jaazaniah son of Azzur, and Pelatiah son of Benaiah, heads of the people.

Et elevavit me spiritus, et introduxit me ad portam domus Domini orientalem, quæ respicit ad solis ortum: et ecce in introitu portæ viginti quinque viri: et vidi in medio eorum Jezoniam filium Azur, et Pheltiam filium Banaiæ, principes populi.

2 And He says to me, “Son of man, these [are] the men who are devising iniquity, and who are giving 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 are saying, It [is] not near—to build houses, it [is] the pot, and we [are] the flesh.

dicentes: Nonne dudum ædificatæ sunt domus? hæc est lebes, nos autem carnes.

4 Therefore prophesy concerning them, prophesy, son of man.”

Idcirco vaticinare de eis, vaticinare, fili hominis.

5 And [the] Spirit of YHWH falls on me, and He says to me, “Say, Thus said YHWH: You have said correctly, O house of Israel, And I have known the steps of your spirit.

Et irruit in me spiritus Domini, et dixit ad me: Loquere: Hæc dicit Dominus: Sic locuti estis, domus Israël, et cogitationes cordis vestri ego novi.

6 You multiplied your wounded in this city, And filled its out-places with the wounded.

Plurimos occidistis in urbe hac, et implestis vias ejus interfectis.

7 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Your wounded whom you placed in its midst, They [are] the flesh, and it [is] the pot, And He has brought you out from its midst.

Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Interfecti vestri, quos posuistis in medio ejus, hi sunt carnes, et hæc est lebes: et educam vos de medio ejus.

8 You have feared a sword, And I bring in a sword against you, A declaration of Lord YHWH.

Gladium metuistis, et gladium inducam super vos, ait Dominus Deus.

9 And I have brought you out of its midst, And given you into the hand of strangers, And I have done judgments among you.

Et ejiciam vos de medio ejus, daboque vos in manu hostium, et faciam in vobis judicia.

10 You fall by the sword, I judge you on the border of Israel, And you have known that I [am] YHWH.

Gladio cadetis: in finibus Israël judicabo vos, et scietis quia ego Dominus.

11 It is not for a pot for you, Nor are you for flesh in its midst, I judge you at the border of Israel.

Hæc non erit vobis in lebetem, et vos non eritis in medio ejus in carnes: in finibus Israël judicabo vos,

12 And you have known that I [am] YHWH, For you have not walked in My statutes, And you have not done My judgments, And according to the judgments of the nations Who are around you, you have done!”

et scietis quia ego Dominus: quia in præceptis meis non ambulastis, et judicia mea non fecistis, sed juxta judicia gentium quæ in circuitu vestro sunt estis operati.

13 And it comes to pass, at my prophesying, that Pelatiah son of Benaiah is dying, and I fall on my face, and cry—a loud voice—and say, “Aah! Lord YHWH, You are making an end of the remnant of Israel.”

Et factum est cum prophetarem, Pheltias filius Banaiæ mortuus est: et cecidi in faciem meam clamans voce magna, et dixi: Heu! heu! heu! Domine Deus, consummationem tu facis reliquiarum Israël?

14 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,

Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:

15 “Son of man, your brothers, your brothers, men of your family, and all the house of Israel—all of it—[are] they to whom inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Keep far off from YHWH;

Fili hominis, fratres tui, fratres tui, viri propinqui tui, et omnis domus Israël, universi quibus dixerunt habitatores Jerusalem: Longe recedite a Domino: nobis data est terra in possessionem.

16 it [is] ours, the land has been given for an inheritance; therefore say, Thus said Lord YHWH: Because I put them far off among nations, And because I scattered them through lands, I am also for a little sanctuary to them, In lands to where they have gone in.

Propterea hæc 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 said Lord YHWH: And I have assembled you from the peoples, And I have gathered you from the lands, Into which you have been scattered, And I have given the ground of Israel to you.

Propterea loquere: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Congregabo vos de populis, et adunabo de terris in quibus dispersi estis, daboque vobis humum Israël.

18 And they have gone in there, And turned aside all its detestable things, And all its abominations—out of it.

Et ingredientur illuc, et auferent omnes offensiones, cunctasque abominationes ejus de illa.

19 And I have given one heart to them, And I give a new spirit in your midst, And I have turned the heart of stone out of their flesh, And I have given a heart of flesh to them.

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 So that they walk in My statutes, And keep My judgments, and have done them, And they have been to Me for a people, And I am to them for God.

ut in præceptis meis ambulent, et judicia mea custodiant, faciantque ea, et sint mihi in populum, et ego sim eis in Deum.

21 As for those whose heart is going to the heart Of their detestable things and their abominations, I have put their way on their head, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”

Quorum cor post offendicula et abominationes suas ambulat, horum viam in capite suo ponam, dicit Dominus Deus.

22 And the cherubim lift up their wings, and the wheels [are] alongside them, and the glory of the God of Israel [is] over them above.

Et elevaverunt cherubim alas suas, et rotæ cum eis, et gloria Dei Israël erat super ea:

23 And the glory of YHWH goes up from off the midst of the city, and stands on the mountain, that [is] on the east of the city.

et ascendit gloria Domini de medio civitatis, stetitque super montem qui est ad orientem urbis.

24 And [the] Spirit has lifted me up, and brings me to Chaldea, to the expulsion, in a vision, by [the] Spirit of God, and the vision that I have seen goes up from off me;

Et spiritus levavit me, adduxitque in Chaldæam ad transmigrationem, in visione, in spiritu Dei: et sublata est a me visio quam videram.

25 and I speak to the expulsion all the matters of YHWH that He has showed me.

Et locutus sum ad transmigrationem omnia verba Domini quæ ostenderat mihi.
