Ezekiel 14
1 Some of the elders of Israel came to me and sat before me.
et venerunt ad me viri seniorum Israhel et sederunt coram me
2 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
3 “Son of man, these men have taken their idols into their hearts and have put the stumbling block of their iniquity before their own faces. Should I be inquired of at all by them?
fili hominis viri isti posuerunt inmunditias suas in cordibus suis et scandalum iniquitatis suae statuerunt contra faciem suam numquid interrogatus respondebo eis
4 Therefore announce this to them and say to them, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Every man of the house of Israel who takes his idols into his heart, or who puts the stumbling block of his iniquity before his face, and who then comes to a prophet—I, Yahweh, will answer him according to the number of his idols.
propter hoc loquere eis et dices ad eos haec dicit Dominus Deus homo homo de domo Israhel qui posuerit inmunditias suas in corde suo et scandalum iniquitatis suae statuerit contra faciem suam et venerit ad prophetam interrogans per eum me ego Dominus respondebo ei in multitudine inmunditiarum suarum
5 I will do this so that I may take back the house of Israel in their hearts that have been driven far from me through their idols.'
ut capiatur domus Israhel in corde suo quo recesserunt a me in cunctis idolis suis
6 Therefore say to the house of Israel, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Repent and turn away from your idols! Turn back your faces from all your abominations.
propterea dic ad domum Israhel haec dicit Dominus Deus convertimini et recedite ab idolis vestris et ab universis contaminationibus vestris avertite facies vestras
7 For every one from the house of Israel and every one of the foreigners staying in Israel who deserts me, who takes his idols into his heart and puts the stumbling block of his iniquity before his own face, and who then comes to a prophet to seek me—I, Yahweh, will answer him myself.
quia homo homo de domo Israhel et de proselytis quicumque advena fuerit in Israhel si alienatus fuerit a me et posuerit idola sua in corde suo et scandalum iniquitatis suae statuerit contra faciem suam et venerit ad prophetam ut interroget per eum me ego Dominus respondebo ei per me
8 So I will set my face against that man and make him a sign and a proverb, for I will cut him off from the midst of my people, and you will know that I am Yahweh.
et ponam faciem meam super hominem illum et faciam eum in exemplum et in proverbium et disperdam eum de medio populi mei et scietis quia ego Dominus
9 If a prophet is deceived and speaks a message, then I, Yahweh, will deceive that prophet; I will reach out with my hand against him and destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
et propheta cum erraverit et locutus fuerit verbum ego Dominus decepi prophetam illum et extendam manum meam super eum et delebo eum de medio populi mei Israhel
10 They will carry their own iniquity; the iniquity of the prophet will be the same as the iniquity of the one who inquires from him.
et portabunt iniquitatem suam iuxta iniquitatem interrogantis sic iniquitas prophetae erit
11 Because of this, the house of Israel will no longer wander away from following me nor defile themselves any longer through all their transgressions. They will be my people, and I will be their God—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
ut non erret ultra domus Israhel a me neque polluatur in universis praevaricationibus suis sed sit mihi in populum et ego sim eis in Deum ait Dominus exercituum
12 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
13 “Son of man, when a land sins against me by committing a sin so that I reach out with my hand against it and break the staff of its bread, and send out over it a famine and cut off both man and beast from the land;
fili hominis terra cum peccaverit mihi ut praevaricetur praevaricans extendam manum meam super eam et conteram virgam panis eius et inmittam in eam famem et interficiam de ea hominem et iumentum
14 then even if these three men—Noah, Daniel, and Job—were in the land's midst, they could only rescue their own lives by their righteousness—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
et si fuerint tres viri isti in medio eius Noe Danihel et Iob ipsi iustitia sua liberabunt animas suas ait Dominus exercituum
15 If I send evil beasts through the land and make it barren so that it becomes a wasteland where no man may pass through because of the beasts,
quod si et bestias pessimas induxero super terram ut vastem eam et fuerit invia eo quod non sit pertransiens propter bestias
16 then even if these same three men were in it—as I live, declares the Lord Yahweh—they would not be able to rescue even their own sons or daughters; only their own lives would be rescued, but the land would become a wasteland.
tres viri isti qui fuerint in ea vivo ego dicit Dominus Deus quia nec filios nec filias liberabunt sed ipsi soli liberabuntur terra autem desolabitur
17 Or if I bring a sword against that land and say, 'Sword, go through the land and cut off both man and beast from it',
vel si gladium induxero super terram illam et dixero gladio transi per terram et interfecero de ea hominem et iumentum
18 then even if these three men were in the midst of the land—as I live, declares the Lord Yahweh—they would not be able to rescue even their own sons or daughters; only their own lives would be rescued.
et tres viri isti fuerint in medio eius vivo ego dicit Dominus Deus non liberabunt filios neque filias sed ipsi soli liberabuntur
19 Or if I send a plague against this land and pour out my fury against it through bloodshed, in order to cut off both man and beast,
si autem et pestilentiam inmisero super terram illam et effudero indignationem meam super eam in sanguine ut auferam ex ea hominem et iumentum
20 then even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were in that land—as I live, declares the Lord Yahweh—they would not be able to rescue even their own sons or daughters; only their own lives would be rescued by their righteousness.
et Noe et Danihel et Iob fuerint in medio eius vivo ego dicit Dominus Deus quia filium et filiam non liberabunt sed ipsi iustitia sua liberabunt animas suas
21 For the Lord Yahweh says this: I will certainly make things worse by sending my four punishments—famine, sword, wild animals, and plague—against Jerusalem to cut off both man and beast from her.
quoniam haec dicit Dominus Deus quod si et quattuor iudicia mea pessima gladium et famem et bestias malas et pestilentiam misero in Hierusalem ut interficiam de ea hominem et pecus
22 Yet, behold! A remnant will be left in her, survivors who will go out with sons and daughters. Behold! They will go out to you, and you will see their ways and actions and be comforted concerning the punishment that I have sent to Jerusalem, and about everything else that I have sent against the land.
tamen relinquetur in ea salvatio educentium filios et filias ecce ipsi egredientur ad vos et videbitis viam eorum et adinventiones eorum et consolabimini super malo quod induxi in Hierusalem in omnibus quae inportavi super eam
23 The survivors will comfort you when you see their ways and their actions, so you will know all these things I have done against her, that I have not done them in vain!—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
et consolabuntur vos cum videritis viam eorum et adinventiones eorum et cognoscetis quod non frustra fecerim omnia quae feci in ea ait Dominus Deus
