Ezekiel 36
1 “And you, son of man, prophesy to mountains of Israel, and you have said, O mountains of Israel, hear a word of YHWH!
Tu autem, fili hominis, propheta super montes Israël, et dices: Montes Israël, audite verbum Domini.
2 Thus said Lord YHWH: Because the enemy said against you, Aha! The high places of old have also become our possession,
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Eo quod dixerit inimicus de vobis: Euge, altitudines sempiternæ in hæreditatem datæ sunt nobis:
3 therefore, prophesy, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: Because, even because, of desolating, And of swallowing you up from all around, For your being a possession to the remnant of the nations, And you are taken up on the tip of the tongue, And [are] an evil report to the people.
propterea vaticinare, et dic: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod desolati estis, et conculcati per circuitum, et facti in hæreditatem reliquis gentibus, et ascendistis super labium linguæ et opprobrium populi,
4 Therefore, O mountains of Israel, Hear a word of Lord YHWH! Thus said Lord YHWH, to mountains, and to hills, To streams, and to valleys, And to ruins that [are] desolate, And to cities that are forsaken, That have been for a prey, And for a scorn, to the remnant of the surrounding nations,
propterea, montes Israël, audite verbum Domini Dei. Hæc dicit Dominus Deus montibus et collibus, torrentibus, vallibusque et desertis, parietinis et urbibus derelictis, quæ depopulatæ sunt et subsannatæ a reliquis gentibus per circuitum.
5 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Have I not, in the fire of My jealousy, Spoken against the remnant of the nations, And against Edom—all of it, Who gave My land to themselves for a possession, With the joy of the whole heart—with despite of soul, For the sake of casting it out for a prey?
Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Quoniam in igne zeli mei locutus sum de reliquis gentibus, et de Idumæa universa, quæ dederunt terram meam sibi in hæreditatem cum gaudio, et toto corde et ex animo, et ejecerunt eam ut vastarent:
6 Therefore, prophesy concerning the ground of Israel, And you have said to mountains, and to hills, To streams, and to valleys, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I, in My jealousy and in My fury, have spoken, Because you have borne the shame of nations.
idcirco vaticinare super humum Israël, et dices montibus et collibus, jugis et vallibus: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego in zelo meo et in furore meo locutus sum, eo quod confusionem gentium sustinueritis.
7 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: I have lifted up My hand, Do the nations who [are] surrounding you not bear their own shame?
Idcirco hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ego levavi manum meam, ut gentes quæ in circuitu vestro sunt, ipsæ confusionem suam portent.
8 And you, O mountains of Israel, You give out your branch, And you bear your fruits for My people Israel, For they have drawn near to come.
Vos autem, montes Israël, ramos vestros germinetis, et fructum vestrum afferatis populo meo Israël: prope enim est ut veniat.
9 For behold, I [am] for you, and have turned to you, And you have been tilled and sown.
Quia ecce ego ad vos, et convertar ad vos: et arabimini, et accipietis sementem.
10 And I have multiplied men on you, All the house of Israel—all of it, And the cities have been inhabited, And the ruins are built.
Et multiplicabo in vobis homines, omnemque domum Israël: et habitabuntur civitates, et ruinosa instaurabuntur.
11 And I have multiplied man and beast on you, And they have multiplied and been fruitful, And I have caused you to dwell according to your former states, And I have done better than at your beginnings, And you have known that I [am] YHWH.
Et replebo vos hominibus et jumentis, et multiplicabuntur, et crescent: et habitare vos faciam sicut a principio, bonisque donabo majoribus quam habuistis ab initio: et scietis quia ego Dominus.
12 And I have caused man to walk over you—My people Israel, And they possess you, and you have been their inheritance, And you no longer add to bereave them.
Et adducam super vos homines, populum meum Israël, et hæreditate possidebunt te: et eris eis in hæreditatem, et non addes ultra ut absque eis sis.
13 Thus said Lord YHWH: Because they are saying to you, You [are] a devourer of men, And you have been a bereaver of your nations,
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod dicunt de vobis: Devoratrix hominum es, et suffocans gentem tuam:
14 Therefore, you no longer devour man, And you do not cause your nations to stumble anymore, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
propterea homines non comedes amplius, et gentem tuam non necabis ultra, ait Dominus Deus.
15 And I do not proclaim the shame of the nations to you anymore, And you no longer bear the reproach of peoples, And your nations do not stumble anymore, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”
Nec auditam faciam in te amplius confusionem gentium, et opprobrium populorum nequaquam portabis: et gentem tuam non amittes amplius, ait Dominus Deus.
16 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
17 “Son of man, The house of Israel are dwelling on their land, And they defile it by their way and by their doings, Their way has been as the uncleanness of a separated one before Me.
Fili hominis, domus Israël habitaverunt in humo sua, et polluerunt eam in viis suis et in studiis suis: juxta immunditiam menstruatæ facta est via eorum coram me.
18 And I pour out My fury on them For the blood that they shed on the land, And they have defiled it with their idols.
Et effudi indignationem meam super eos pro sanguine quem fuderunt super terram, et in idolis suis polluerunt eam.
19 And I scatter them among nations, And they are spread through lands, According to their way, and according to their doings, I have judged them.
Et dispersi eos in gentes, et ventilati sunt in terras: juxta vias eorum et adinventiones eorum judicavi eos.
20 And one goes to the nations to where they have gone, And they defile My holy Name by saying to them, These [are] the people of YHWH, And they have gone forth from His land.
Et ingressi sunt ad gentes ad quas introierunt: et polluerunt nomen sanctum meum, cum diceretur de eis: Populus Domini iste est, et de terra ejus egressi sunt.
21 And I have pity on My holy Name, That the house of Israel has defiled Among the nations to where they have gone in.
Et peperci nomini sancto meo, quod polluerat domus Israël in gentibus ad quas ingressi sunt.
22 Therefore, say to the house of Israel, Thus said Lord YHWH: I am not working for your sake, O house of Israel, but for My holy Name That you have defiled Among the nations to where you have gone in.
Idcirco dices domui Israël: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Non propter vos ego faciam, domus Israël, sed propter nomen sanctum meum, quod polluistis in gentibus ad quas intrastis.
23 And I have sanctified My great Name, That is profaned among the nations, That you have defiled in your midst, And the nations have known that I [am] YHWH, A declaration of Lord YHWH, In My being sanctified in you before your eyes.
Et sanctificabo nomen meum magnum quod pollutum est inter gentes, quod polluistis in medio earum: ut sciant gentes quia ego Dominus, ait Dominus exercituum, cum sanctificatus fuero in vobis coram eis.
24 And I have taken you out of the nations, And have gathered you out of all the lands, And I have brought you into your land,
Tollam quippe vos de gentibus, et congregabo vos de universis terris, et adducam vos in terram vestram.
25 And I have sprinkled clean water over you, And you have been clean; I cleanse you from all your uncleannesses, And from all your idols.
Et effundam super vos aquam mundam, et mundabimini ab omnibus inquinamentis vestris, et ab universis idolis vestris mundabo vos.
26 And I have given a new heart to you, And I give a new spirit in your midst, And I have turned aside the heart of stone out of your flesh, And I have given a heart of flesh to you.
Et dabo vobis cor novum, et spiritum novum ponam in medio vestri: et auferam cor lapideum de carne vestra, et dabo vobis cor carneum.
27 And I give My Spirit in your midst, And I have done this, so that you walk in My statutes, And you keep My judgments, and have done them.
Et spiritum meum ponam in medio vestri: et faciam ut in præceptis meis ambuletis, et judicia mea custodiatis et operemini.
28 And you have dwelt in the land that I have given to your fathers, And you have been to Me for a people, And I am to you for God.
Et habitabitis in terra quam dedi patribus vestris: et eritis mihi in populum, et ego ero vobis in Deum.
29 And I have saved you from all your uncleannesses, And I have called to the grain, and multiplied it, And I have put no famine on you.
Et salvabo vos ex universis inquinamentis vestris: et vocabo frumentum et multiplicabo illud, et non imponam vobis famem.
30 And I have multiplied the fruit of the tree, And the increase of the field, So that you do not receive a reproach of famine among nations anymore.
Et multiplicabo fructum ligni, et genimina agri, ut non portetis ultra opprobrium famis in gentibus.
31 And you have remembered your ways that [are] evil, And your doings that [are] not good, And have been loathsome in your own faces, For your iniquities, and for your abominations.
Et recordabimini viarum vestrarum pessimarum, studiorumque non bonorum: et displicebunt vobis iniquitates vestræ et scelera vestra.
32 I am not working for your sake, A declaration of Lord YHWH, Be it known to you, Be ashamed and confounded, because of your ways, O house of Israel.
Non propter vos ego faciam, ait Dominus Deus, notum sit vobis: confundimini, et erubescite super viis vestris, domus Israël.
33 Thus said Lord YHWH: In the day of My cleansing you from all your iniquities, I have caused the cities to be inhabited, And the ruins have been built,
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: In die qua mundavero vos ex omnibus iniquitatibus vestris, et inhabitari fecero urbes, et instauravero ruinosa,
34 And the desolate land is tilled, Instead of which it was a desolation before the eyes of everyone passing by,
et terra deserta fuerit exculta, quæ quondam erat desolata in oculis omnis viatoris,
35 And they have said: This land, that was desolated, Has been as the Garden of Eden, And the cities—the dried up, And the desolated, and the broken down, [And the] fortified have remained.
dicent: Terra illa inculta facta est ut hortus voluptatis: et civitates desertæ, et destitutæ atque suffossæ, munitæ sederunt.
36 And the nations who are left around you have known That I, YHWH, have built the thrown down, I have planted the desolated: I, YHWH, have spoken, and I have done [it].
Et scient gentes quæcumque derelictæ fuerint in circuitu vestro, quia ego Dominus ædificavi dissipata, plantavique inculta: ego Dominus locutus sim, et fecerim.
37 Thus said Lord YHWH: Yet this I am inquired of by the house of Israel to do for them: I multiply them as a flock of men,
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Adhuc in hoc invenient me domus Israël, ut faciam eis: multiplicabo eos sicut gregem hominum,
38 As a flock of holy ones, as a flock of Jerusalem, In her appointed times, So the dried up cities are full of flocks of man, And they have known that I [am] YHWH!”
ut gregem sanctum, ut gregem Jerusalem in solemnitatibus ejus: sic erunt civitates desertæ, plenæ gregibus hominum: et scient quia ego Dominus.
