Ezekiel 3
1 He said to me, "Son of man, eat that which you find. Eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel."
Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis quodcumque inveneris comede: comede volumen istud, et vadens loquere ad filios Israel.
2 So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat the scroll.
Et aperui os meum, et cibavit me volumine illo:
3 He said to me, "Son of man, cause your belly to eat, and fill your belly with this scroll that I give you." Then I ate it; and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth.
et dixit ad me: Fili hominis venter tuus comedet, et viscera tua complebuntur volumine isto, quod ego do tibi. Et comedi illud: et factum est in ore meo sicut mel dulce.
4 He said to me, "Son of man, go to the house of Israel, and speak my words to them.
Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis vade ad domum Israel, et loqueris verba mea ad eos.
5 For you are not sent to a people of a strange speech and of a hard language, but to the house of Israel;
Non enim ad populum profundi sermonis, et ignotæ linguæ tu mitteris ad domum Israel:
6 not to many peoples of a strange speech and of a hard language, whose words you can not understand. Surely, if I sent you to them, they would listen to you.
neque ad populos multos profundi sermonis, et ignotæ linguæ, quorum non possis audire sermones: et si ad illos mittereris, ipsi audirent te.
7 But the house of Israel will not listen to you; for they will not listen to me: for all the house of Israel are obstinate and hard-hearted.
Domus autem Israel nolunt audire te: quia nolunt audire me. omnis quippe domus Israel attrita fronte est, et duro corde.
8 Look, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your forehead hard against their foreheads.
Ecce dedi faciem tuam valentiorem faciebus eorum, et frontem tuam duriorem frontibus eorum.
9 As an adamant harder than flint have I made your forehead. Do not be afraid of them, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house."
Ut adamantem, et ut silicem dedi faciem tuam: ne timeas eos, neque metuas a facie eorum: quia domus exasperans est.
10 Moreover he said to me, "Son of man, all my words that I shall speak to you receive in your heart, and hear with your ears.
Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis omnes sermones meos, quos ego loquor ad te, assume in corde tuo, et auribus tuis audi:
11 And go to the exiles, to the children of your people, and speak to them, and tell them, 'Thus says Jehovah'; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.
Et vade ingredere ad transmigrationem, ad filios populi tui, et loqueris ad eos, et dices eis: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: si forte audiant, et quiescant.
12 Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great rushing, saying, "Blessed be the glory of Jehovah from his place."
Et assumpsit me spiritus, et audivi post me vocem commotionis magnæ: Benedicta gloria Domini de loco suo,
13 I heard the noise of the wings of the living creatures as they touched one another, and the noise of the wheels beside them, even the noise of a great rushing.
et vocem alarum animalium percutientium alteram ad alteram, et vocem rotarum sequentium animalia, et vocem commotionis magnæ.
14 So the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away; and I went in bitterness, in the anger of my spirit; and the hand of Jehovah was strong on me.
Spiritus quoque levavit me, et assumpsit me: et abii amarus in indignatione spiritus mei: manus enim Domini erat mecum, confortans me.
15 Then I came to them of the exiles at Tel Aviv, that lived by the river Chebar, and to where they lived; and I sat there overwhelmed among them seven days.
Et veni ad transmigrationem, ad acervum novarum frugum, ad eos, qui habitabant iuxta flumen Chobar, et sedi ubi illi sedebant: et mansi ibi septem diebus mœrens in medio eorum.
16 It happened at the end of seven days, that the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Cum autem pertransissent septem dies, factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
17 "Son of man, I have made you a watchman to the house of Israel: therefore hear the word from my mouth, and give them warning from me.
Fili hominis speculatorem dedi te domui Israel: et audies de ore meo verbum, et annunciabis eis ex me.
18 When I tell the wicked, 'You shall surely die'; and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at your hand.
Si dicente me ad impium: Morte morieris: non annunciaveris ei, neque locutus fueris ut avertatur a via sua impia, et vivat: ipse impius in iniquitate sua morietur, sanguinem autem eius de manu tua requiram.
19 Yet if you warn the wicked, and he doesn't turn from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul.
Si autem tu annunciaveris impio, et ille non fuerit conversus ab impietate sua, et a via sua impia: ipse quidem in iniquitate sua morietur, tu autem animam tuam liberasti.
20 "Again, when a righteous man does turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die: because you have not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous deeds which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at your hand.
Sed et si conversus iustus a iustitia sua fuerit, et fecerit iniquitatem: ponam offendiculum coram eo, ipse morietur, quia non annunciasti ei: in peccato suo morietur, et non erunt in memoria iustitiæ eius, quas fecit: sanguinem vero eius de manu tua requiram.
21 Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous not sin, and he does not sin, he shall surely live, because he took warning; and you have delivered your soul."
Si autem tu annunciaveris iusto ut non peccet iustus, et ille non peccaverit: vivens vivet, quia annunciasti ei, et tu animam tuam liberasti.
22 The hand of Jehovah was there on me; and he said to me, "Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with you."
Et facta est super me manus Domini, et dixit ad me: Surgens egredere in campum, et ibi loquar tecum.
23 Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and look, the glory of Jehovah stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.
Et surgens egressus sum in campum: et ecce ibi gloria Domini stabat quasi gloria, quam vidi iuxta fluvium Chobar: et cecidi in faciem meam.
24 Then the Spirit entered into me, and set me on my feet; and he spoke with me, and said to me, "Go, shut yourself inside your house.
Et ingressus est in me spiritus, et statuit me super pedes meos: et locutus est mihi, et dixit ad me: Ingredere, et includere in medio domus tuæ.
25 But you, son of man, look, they shall lay bands on you, and shall bind you with them, and you shall not go out among them:
Et tu fili hominis, ecce data sunt super te vincula, et ligabunt te in eis: et non egredieris de medio eorum.
26 and I will make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth, that you shall be mute, and shall not be to them a reprover; for they are a rebellious house.
Et linguam tuam adhærere faciam palato tuo, et eris mutus, nec quasi vir obiurgans: quia domus exasperans est.
27 But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall tell them, 'Thus says Jehovah': He who hears, let him hear; and he who forbears, let him forbear: for they are a rebellious house.
Cum autem locutus fuero tibi, aperiam os tuum, et dices ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Qui audit, audiat: et qui quiescit, quiescat: quia domus exasperans est.
