Ezekiel 23
1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
2 Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother:
fili hominis duae mulieres filiae matris unius fuerunt
3 and they committed whoredoms in Egypt; they committed whoredoms in their youth: there were their breasts pressed, and there they bruised the teats of their virginity.
et fornicatae sunt in Aegypto in adulescentia sua fornicatae sunt ibi subacta sunt ubera earum et fractae sunt mammae pubertatis earum
4 And the names of them were Oholah the elder, and Oholibah her sister: and they became mine, and they bare sons and daughters. And as for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem Oholibah.
nomina autem earum Oolla maior et Ooliba soror eius et habui eas et pepererunt filios et filias porro earum nomina Samaria Oolla et Hierusalem Ooliba
5 And Oholah played the harlot when she was mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians [her] neighbours,
fornicata est igitur Oolla super me et insanivit in amatores suos in Assyrios propinquantes
6 which were clothed with blue, governors and rulers, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding upon horses.
vestitos hyacintho principes et magistratus iuvenes cupidinis universos equites ascensores equorum
7 And she bestowed her whoredoms upon them, the choicest men of Assyria all of them: and on whomsoever she doted, with all their idols she defiled herself.
et dedit fornicationes suas super eos electos filios Assyriorum universos et in omnibus in quos insanivit in inmunditiis eorum polluta est
8 Neither hath, she left her whoredoms since [the days of] Egypt; for in her youth they lay with her, and they bruised the teats of her virginity: and they poured out their whoredom upon her.
insuper et fornicationes suas quas habuerat in Aegypto non reliquit nam et illi dormierant cum ea in adulescentia eius et illi confregerant ubera pubertatis eius et effuderant fornicationem suam super eam
9 Wherefore I delivered her into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the Assyrians, upon whom she doted.
propterea tradidi eam in manu amatorum suorum in manus filiorum Assur super quorum insanivit libidinem
10 These discovered her nakedness: they took her sons and her daughters, and her they slew with the sword: and she became a byword among women; for they executed judgments upon her.
ipsi discoperuerunt ignominiam eius filios et filias illius tulerunt et ipsam occiderunt gladio et factae sunt famosae mulieres et iudicia perpetrarunt in ea
11 And her sister Oholibah saw this, yet was she more corrupt in her doting than she, and in her whoredoms which were more than the whoredoms of her sister.
quod cum vidisset soror eius Ooliba plus quam illa insanivit libidine et fornicationem suam super fornicationem sororis suae
12 She doted upon the Assyrians, governors and rulers, [her] neighbours, clothed most gorgeously, horsemen riding upon horses, all of them desirable young men.
ad filios Assyriorum praebuit inpudenter ducibus et magistratibus ad se venientibus indutis veste varia equitibus qui vectabantur equis et adulescentibus forma cunctis egregia
13 And I saw that she was defiled; they both took one way.
et vidi quod polluta esset via una ambarum
14 And she increased her whoredoms; for she saw men pourtrayed upon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans pourtrayed with vermilion,
et auxit fornicationes suas cumque vidisset viros depictos in pariete imagines Chaldeorum expressas coloribus
15 girded with girdles upon their loins, exceeding in dyed attire upon their heads, all of them princes to look upon, after the likeness of the Babylonians in Chaldea, the land of their nativity.
et accinctos balteis renes et tiaras tinctas in capitibus eorum formam ducum omnium similitudinem filiorum Babylonis terraeque Chaldeorum in qua orti sunt
16 And as soon as she saw them she doted upon them, and sent messengers unto them into Chaldea.
et insanivit super eos concupiscentia oculorum suorum et misit nuntios ad eos in Chaldeam
17 And the Babylonians came to her into the bed of love; and they defiled her with their whoredom, and she was polluted with them, and her soul was alienated from them.
cumque venissent ad eam filii Babylonis ad cubile mammarum polluerunt eam stupris suis et polluta est ab eis et saturata est anima eius ab illis
18 So she discovered her whoredoms, and discovered her nakedness: then my soul was alienated from her, like as my soul was alienated from her sister.
denudavit quoque fornicationes suas et discoperuit ignominiam suam et recessit anima mea ab ea sicut recesserat anima mea a sorore eius
19 Yet she multiplied her whoredoms, remembering the days of her youth, wherein she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt.
multiplicavit enim fornicationes suas recordans dies adulescentiae suae quibus fornicata est in terra Aegypti
20 And she doted upon their paramours, whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose issue is like the issue of horses.
et insanivit libidine super concubitu eorum quorum carnes sunt ut carnes asinorum et sicut fluxus equorum fluxus eorum
21 Thus thou calledst to remembrance the lewdness of thy youth, in the bruising of thy teats by the Egyptians for the breasts of thy youth.
et visitasti scelus adulescentiae tuae quando subacta sunt in Aegypto ubera tua et confractae mammae pubertatis tuae
22 Therefore, O Oholibah, thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will raise up thy lovers against thee, from whom thy soul is alienated, and I will bring them against thee on every side;
propterea Ooliba haec dicit Dominus Deus ecce ego suscitabo omnes amatores tuos contra te de quibus satiata est anima tua et congregabo eos adversum te in circuitu
23 the Babylonians and all the Chaldeans, Pekod and Shoa and Koa, [and] all the Assyrians with them: desirable young men, governors and rulers all of them, princes and men of renown, all of them riding upon horses.
filios Babylonis et universos Chaldeos nobiles tyrannosque et principes omnes filios Assyriorum iuvenes forma egregia duces et magistratus universos principes principum et nominatos ascensores equorum
24 And they shall come against thee with weapons, chariots, and wagons, and with an assembly of peoples; they shall set themselves against thee with buckler and shield and helmet round about: and I will commit the judgment unto them, and they shall judge thee according to their judgments.
et venient super te instructi curru et rota multitudo populorum lorica et clypeo et galea armabuntur contra te undique et dabo coram eis iudicium et iudicabunt te iudiciis suis
25 And I will set my jealousy against thee, and they shall deal with thee in fury: they shall take away thy nose and thine ears; and thy residue shall fall by the sword: they shall take thy sons and thy daughters; and thy residue shall be devoured by the fire.
et ponam zelum meum in te quem exercent tecum in furore nasum tuum et aures tuas praecident et quae remanserint gladio concident ipsi filios tuos et filias tuas capient et novissimum tuum devorabitur igni
26 They shall also strip thee of thy clothes, and take away thy fair jewels.
et denudabunt te vestimentis tuis et tollent vasa gloriae tuae
27 Thus will I make thy lewdness to cease from thee, and thy whoredom [brought] from the land of Egypt: so that thou shalt not lift up thine eyes unto them, nor remember Egypt any more.
et requiescere faciam scelus tuum de te et fornicationem tuam de terra Aegypti nec levabis oculos tuos ad eos et Aegypti non recordaberis amplius
28 For thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I will deliver thee into the hand of them whom thou hatest, into the hand of them from whom thy soul is alienated:
quia haec dicit Dominus Deus ecce ego tradam te in manu eorum quos odisti in manu de quibus satiata est anima tua
29 and they shall deal with thee in hatred, and shall take away all thy labour, and shall leave thee naked and bare: and the nakedness of thy whoredoms shall be discovered, both thy lewdness and thy whoredoms.
et agent tecum in odio et tollent omnes labores tuos et dimittent te nudam et ignominia plenam revelabitur ignominia fornicationum tuarum scelus tuum et fornicationes tuae
30 These things shall be done unto thee, for that thou hast gone a whoring after the heathen, and because thou art polluted with their idols.
fecerunt haec tibi quia fornicata es post gentes inter quas polluta es in idolis eorum
31 Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister; therefore will I give her cup into thine hand.
in via sororis tuae ambulasti et dabo calicem eius in manu tua
32 Thus saith the Lord GOD: Thou shalt drink of thy sister’s cup, which is deep and large: thou shalt be laughed to scorn and had in derision; it containeth much.
haec dicit Dominus Deus calicem sororis tuae bibes profundum et latum eris in derisum et in subsannationem quae es capacissima
33 Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness and sorrow, with the cup of astonishment and desolation, with the cup of thy sister Samaria.
ebrietate et dolore repleberis calice maeroris et tristitiae calice sororis tuae Samariae
34 Thou shalt even drink it and drain it out, and thou shalt gnaw the sherds thereof, and shalt tear thy breasts: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.
et bibes illum et epotabis usque ad feces et fragmenta eius devorabis et ubera tua lacerabis quia ego locutus sum ait Dominus Deus
35 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Because thou hast forgotten me, and cast me behind thy back, therefore bear thou also thy lewdness and thy whoredoms.
propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus quia oblita es mei et proiecisti me post corpus tuum tu quoque porta scelus tuum et fornicationes tuas
36 The LORD said moreover unto me: Son of man, wilt thou judge Oholah and Oholibah? then declare unto them their abominations.
et ait Dominus ad me dicens fili hominis numquid iudicas Oollam et Oolibam et adnuntias eis scelera earum
37 For they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands, and with their idols have they committed adultery; and they have also caused their sons, whom they bare unto me, to pass through [the fire] unto them to be devoured.
quia adulterae sunt et sanguis in manibus earum et cum idolis suis fornicatae sunt insuper et filios suos quos genuerunt mihi obtulerunt eis ad devorandum
38 Moreover this they have done unto me: they have defiled my sanctuary in the same day, and have profaned my sabbaths.
sed et hoc fecerunt mihi polluerunt sanctuarium meum in die illa et sabbata mea profanaverunt
39 For when they had slain their children to their idols, then they came the same day into my sanctuary to profane it; and, lo, thus have they done in the midst of mine house.
cumque immolarent filios suos idolis suis et ingrederentur sanctuarium meum in die illa ut polluerent illud etiam haec fecerunt in medio domus meae
40 And furthermore ye have sent for men that come from far: unto whom a messenger was sent, and, lo, they came; for whom thou didst wash thyself, paintedst thine eyes, and deckedst thyself with ornaments;
miserunt ad viros venientes de longe ad quos nuntium miserant itaque ecce venerunt quibus te lavisti et circumlevisti stibio oculos tuos et ornata es mundo muliebri
41 and satest upon a stately bed. with a table prepared before it, whereupon thou didst set mine incense and mine oil.
sedisti in lecto pulcherrimo et mensa ordinata est ante te thymiama meum et unguentum meum posuisti super eam
42 And the voice of a multitude being at ease was with her: and with men of the common sort were brought drunkards from the wilderness; and they put bracelets upon the hands of them [twain], and beautiful crowns upon their heads.
et vox multitudinis exultantis erat in ea et in viris qui de multitudine hominum adducebantur et veniebant de deserto posuerunt armillas in manibus eorum et coronas speciosas in capitibus eorum
43 Then said I of her that was old in adulteries, Now will they commit whoredoms with her, and she [with them].
et dixi ei quae adtrita est in adulteriis nunc fornicabitur in fornicatione sua etiam haec
44 And they went in unto her, as they go in unto an harlot: so went they in unto Oholah and unto Oholibah, the lewd women.
et ingressi sunt ad eam quasi ad mulierem meretricem sic ingrediebantur ad Oollam et ad Oolibam mulieres nefarias
45 And righteous men, they shall judge them with the judgment of adulteresses, and with the judgment of women that shed blood; because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.
viri ergo iusti sunt hii iudicabunt eas iudicio adulterarum et iudicio effundentium sanguinem quia adulterae sunt et sanguis in manibus earum
46 For thus saith the Lord GOD: I will bring up an assembly against them, and will give them to be tossed to and fro and spoiled.
haec enim dicit Dominus Deus adduc ad eas multitudinem et trade eas in tumultum et in rapinam
47 And the assembly shall stone them with stones, and despatch them with their swords; they shall slay their sons and their daughters, and burn up their houses with fire.
et lapidentur lapidibus populorum et confodiantur gladiis eorum filios et filias earum interficient et domos earum igne succendent
48 Thus will I cause lewdness to cease out of the land, that all women may be taught not to do after your lewdness.
et auferam scelus de terra et discent omnes mulieres ne faciant secundum scelus earum
49 And they shall recompense your lewdness upon you, and ye shall bear the sins of your idols: and ye shall know that I am the Lord GOD.
et dabunt scelus vestrum super vos et peccata idolorum vestrorum portabitis et scietis quia ego Dominus Deus
