Ezekiel 4
1 “And you, son of man, take a brick for yourself, and you have put it before you, and have carved a city on it—Jerusalem,
Et tu fili hominis sume tibi laterem, et pones eum coram te: et describes in eo civitatem Ierusalem.
2 and have placed a siege against it, and built a fortification against it, and poured out a mound against it, and placed camps against it, indeed, set battering-rams against it all around.
Et ordinabis adversus eam obsidionem, et aedificabis munitiones, et comportabis aggerem, et dabis contra eam castra, et pones arietes in gyro.
3 And you, take an iron pan for yourself, and you have made it a wall of iron between you and the city; and you have prepared your face against it, and it has been in a siege, indeed, you have laid siege against it. It [is] a sign to the house of Israel.
Et tu sume tibi sartaginem ferream, et pones eam in murum ferreum inter te, et inter civitatem: et obfirmabis faciem tuam ad eam, et erit in obsidionem, et circumdabis eam: signum est domui Israel.
4 And you, lie on your left side, and you have placed the iniquity of the house of Israel on it; the number of the days that you lie on it, you bear their iniquity.
Et tu dormies super latus tuum sinistrum, et pones iniquitates domus Israel super eo numero dierum, quibus dormies super illud, et assumes iniquitatem eorum.
5 And I have laid the years of their iniquity on you, the number of days, three hundred and ninety days; and you have borne the iniquity of the house of Israel.
Ego autem dedi tibi annos iniquitatis eorum, numero dierum trecentos et nonaginta dies: et portabis iniquitatem domus Israel.
6 And you have completed these, and have lain on your right side, a second time, and have borne the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days—a day for a year—a day for a year I have appointed to you.
Et cum compleveris haec, dormies super latus tuum dexterum secundo: et assumes iniquitatem domus Iuda quadraginta diebus. diem pro anno, diem, inquam, pro anno dedi tibi.
7 And to the siege of Jerusalem you prepare your face, and your arm [is] uncovered, and you have prophesied concerning it.
Et ad obsidionem Ierusalem convertes faciem tuam, et brachium tuum erit extentum: et prophetabis adversus eam.
8 And behold, I have put thick bands on you, and you do not turn from side to side until your completing the days of your siege.
Ecce circumdedi te vinculis: et non te convertes a latere tuo in latus aliud, donec compleas dies obsidionis tuae.
9 And you, take for yourself wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and spelt, and you have put them in one vessel, and made them for bread for yourself; the number of the days that you are lying on your side—three hundred and ninety days—you eat it.
Et tu sume tibi frumentum, et hordeum, et fabam, et lentem, et milium, et viciam: et mittes ea in vas unum, et facies tibi panes numero dierum, quibus dormies super latus tuum: trecentis et nonaginta diebus comedes illud.
10 And your food that you eat [is] by weight, twenty shekels daily; from time to time you eat it.
Cibus autem tuus, quo vesceris, erit in pondere viginti stateres in die: a tempore usque ad tempus comedes illud.
11 And you drink water by measure, a sixth part of the hin; from time to time you drink [it].
Et aquam in mensura bibes, sextam partem hin: a tempore usque ad tempus bibes illud.
12 And you eat it [as] barley-cake, and it with dung—the filth of man—you bake before their eyes.”
Et quasi subcinericium hordeaceum comedes illud: et stercore, quod egreditur de homine, operies illud in oculis eorum.
13 And YHWH says, “Thus the sons of Israel eat their defiled bread among the nations to where I drive them.”
Et dixit Dominus: Si comedent filii Israel panem suum pollutum inter Gentes, ad quas eiiciam eos.
14 And I say, “Aah! Lord YHWH, behold, my soul is not defiled, and carcass, and torn thing, I have not eaten from my youth, even until now; nor has abominable flesh come into my mouth.”
Et dixi: Ah, ah, ah, Domine Deus, ecce anima mea non est polluta, et morticinum, et laceratum a bestiis non comedi ab infantia mea usque nunc, et non est ingressa in os meum omnis caro immunda.
15 And He says to me, “See, I have given to you bullock’s dung instead of man’s dung, and you have made your bread by it.”
Et dixit ad me: Ecce dedi tibi fimum boum pro stercoribus humanis: et facies panem tuum in eo.
16 And He says to me, “Son of man, behold, I am breaking the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they have eaten bread by weight and with fear; and water by measure and with astonishment, they drink;
Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis: Ecce ego conteram baculum panis in Ierusalem: et comedent panem in pondere, et in solicitudine: et aquam in mensura, et in angustia bibent:
17 so that they lack bread and water, and have been astonished with one another, and been consumed in their iniquity.”
Ut deficientibus pane et aqua, corruat unusquisque ad fratrem suum: et contabescent in iniquitatibus suis.
