Ezekiel 13
1 Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
2 “You human, [a warning] against the prophets in Israel who are prophesying. Some of them are prophesying things that they themselves have imagined/thought. Say to them: 'Listen to what Yahweh says!
Fili hominis, vaticinare ad prophetas Israel, qui prophetant: et dices prophetantibus de corde suo: Audite verbum Domini.
3 He says, “Terrible things will happen to those wicked prophets who proclaim their own ideas and have not seen [visions from me].
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Væ prophetis insipientibus, qui sequuntur spiritum suum, et nihil vident.
4 You Israeli people, your prophets [as useless] as [SIM] jackals/wolves [that only dig] through the [of a city].
Quasi vulpes in desertis, prophetæ tui Israel erant.
5 Those prophets have not helped you Israeli people [MTY] to repair the places where [city] walls have (been broken/crumbled). That needs to be done in order that the walls will be strong at the time when I, Yahweh, [allow your enemies] to attack you.
Non ascendistis ex adverso, neque opposuistis murum pro domo Israel, ut staretis in prælio in die Domini.
6 The visions and prophecies of those prophets are false. They say, 'Yahweh told me this,' but I have not sent [to you to be my prophets]. But they expect that what they prophesy will truly happen!
Vident vana, et divinant mendacium, dicentes: Ait Dominus: cum Dominus non miserit eos: et perseveraverunt confirmare sermonem.
7 They say that they have seen visions, but those visions are false, and the things that they prophesy are lies [RHQ]. They say, 'Yahweh told me this,' but I have told them nothing!”
Numquid non visionem cassam vidistis, et divinationem mendacem locuti estis? et dicitis, ait Dominus: cum ego non sim locutus.
8 Therefore, this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: “Because you prophets have said what is false, and because your visions are lies, I am opposed to you.
Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Quia locuti estis vana, et vidistis mendacium: ideo ecce ego ad vos, dicit Dominus Deus:
9 I will strike/punish all you prophets who falsely say that you have seen visions and prophesy things that are lies. You will not have any place among my people, your names will not be listed in the records of the Israeli people, and you will never return to Israel. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Et erit manus mea super prophetas, qui vident vana, et divinant mendacium: in consilio populi mei non erunt, et in scriptura domus Israel non scribentur, nec in terram Israel ingredientur: et scietis quia ego Dominus Deus:
10 They deceive my people, saying “Things will go well for us,” when things will not go well. [It as though] [MET] the people have built a shaky/weak wall, and the prophets cover it with (whitewash/white paint) [to make people think that it is a very strong wall].
Eo quod deceperint populum meum, dicentes: Pax, et non est pax: et ipse ædificabat parietem, illi autem liniebant eum luto absque paleis.
11 So, tell those prophets who cover the wall with whitewash that the wall will surely fall down. It will rain very hard. I will send big hailstones to fall. Very strong winds will blow against it.
Dic ad eos, qui liniunt absque temperatura, quod casurus sit: erit enim imber inundans, et dabo lapides prægrandes desuper irruentes, et ventum procellæ dissipantem.
12 When the wall falls down, the people will certainly say to those prophets, “The white paint certainly did not [RHQ] make the wall strong!”
Si quidem ecce cecidit paries: numquid non dicetur vobis: Ubi est litura, quam linistis?
13 So this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: “Because I am very angry with you, [I will send enemy armies to destroy Jerusalem. It will be as though] [MET] I will send a very strong wind and hailstones and very heavy rains to destroy you.”
Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Et erumpere faciam spiritum tempestatum in indignatione mea, et imber inundans in furore meo erit: et lapides grandes in ira in consumptionem.
14 [The false prophecies of your prophets are like] [MET] a wall that they have covered with whitewash, but I will break it down, and shatter it down to the ground, with the result that people can see its foundations. When the wall collapses, you also will be killed, and everyone will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
Et destruam parietem, quem linistis absque temperamento: et adæquabo eum terræ, et revelabitur fundamentum eius: et cadet, et consumetur in medio eius: et scietis quia ego sum Dominus.
15 In that way I will show that I am very angry [the people who built] the wall and those who covered it with (whitewash/white paint). Then I will say to you, “The wall is destroyed/gone, and those prophets who put (whitewash/white paint) on it have been killed.”
Et complebo indignationem meam in pariete, et in his, qui liniunt eum absque temperamento, dicamque vobis: Non est paries, et non sunt qui liniunt eum.
16 Those are the prophets who prophesied that things would go well for the people in Jerusalem, when things would not go well for them.
Prophetæ Israel, qui prophetant ad Ierusalem, et vident ei visionem pacis: et non est pax, ait Dominus Deus.
17 So, you human, show that you are angry with [IDM] the women of Jerusalem who prophesy things that they themselves have imagined.
Et tu fili hominis, pone faciem tuam contra filias populi tui, quæ prophetant de corde suo: et vaticinare super eas,
18 Tell them, “This is what Yahweh the Lord says: Terrible things will happen to you women who fasten magic charms on your wrists and make veils of various sizes to put on your heads in order to deceive the people. [You think that] [RHQ] you will deceive [by telling them that you know what will happen in the future], and that you will save your own lives.
et dic: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Væ quæ consuunt pulvillos sub omni cubito manus: et faciunt cervicalia sub capite universæ ætatis ad capiendas animas: et cum caperent animas populi mei, vivificabant animas eorum.
19 You dishonored [by telling lies] in order to get from my people a few handfuls of barley and a few pieces of bread. My people listen to lies; and you women who are lying to them have caused to be killed people who did not deserve to die and have (spared/allowed to remain alive) those who should not continue to live.”
Et violabant me ad populum meum propter pugillum hordei, et fragmen panis, ut interficerent animas, quæ non moriuntur, et vivificarent animas, quæ non vivunt, mentientes populo meo credenti mendaciis.
20 Therefore, this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, [to those women]: “I detest your magic charms by which you deceive people like [SIM] [people trap] birds. I will tear those charms off your wrists, and I will cause the people whom you have deceived to no longer be deceived by you.
Propter hoc hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ad pulvillos vestros, quibus vos capitis animas volantes: et dirumpam eos de brachiis vestris: et dimittam animas, quas vos capitis, animas ad volandum.
21 I will also tear off your veils and rescue my people from continuing to be deceived by you, and they will no longer be under your control. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
Et dirumpam cervicalia vestra, et liberabo populum meum de manu vestra, neque erunt ultra in manibus vestris ad prædandum: et scietis quia ego Dominus.
22 You have discouraged righteous people by telling them lies when I did not [do things to] cause them to be sad. And you have encouraged wicked people to not turn away from their wicked behavior; if they had done that, they would have continued to remain alive.
Pro eo quod mœrere fecistis cor iusti mendaciter, quem ego non contristavi: et confortastis manus impii, ut non reverteretur a via sua mala, et viveret:
23 Therefore, you will no longer falsely say that you have seen visions or tell people what will happen in the future [in order to please them]. I will rescue my people from being deceived by you. And then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].” '”
propterea vana non videbitis, et divinationes non divinabitis amplius, et eruam populum meum de manu vestra: et scietis quia ego Dominus.
