< Ezekiel 37 >
1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which [was] full of bones,
Facta est super me manus Domini, et eduxit me in spiritu Domini: et dimisit me in medio campi, qui erat plenus ossibus:
2 And caused me to pass by them around: and behold, [there were] very many in the open valley; and lo, [they were] very dry.
Et circumduxit me per ea in gyro: erant autem multa valde super faciem campi, siccaque vehementer.
3 And he said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? and I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.
Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis putasne vivent ossa ista? Et dixi: Domine Deus, tu nosti.
4 Again he said to me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say to them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
Et dixit ad me: Vaticinare de ossibus istis: et dices eis: Ossa arida audite verbum Domini.
5 Thus saith the Lord GOD to these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus ossibus his: Ecce ego intromittam in vos spiritum, et vivetis.
6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
Et dabo super vos nervos, et succrescere faciam super vos carnes, et superextendam in vobis cutem: et dabo vobis spiritum, et vivetis, et scietis quia ego Dominus.
7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
Et prophetavi sicut præceperat mihi: factus est autem sonitus, prophetante me, et ecce commotio: et accesserunt ossa ad ossa, unumquodque ad iuncturam suam.
8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but [there was] no breath in them.
Et vidi, et ecce super ea nervi, et carnes ascenderunt: et extenta est in eis cutis desuper, et spiritum non habebant.
9 Then said he to me, Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
Et dixit ad me: Vaticinare ad spiritum, vaticinare fili hominis, et dices ad spiritum: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: A quattuor ventis veni spiritus, et insuffla super interfectos istos, et reviviscant.
10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
Et prophetavi sicut præceperat mihi: et ingressus est in ea spiritus, et vixerunt: steteruntque super pedes suos exercitus grandis nimis valde.
11 Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis, ossa hæc universa, domus Israel est: ipsi dicunt: Aruerunt ossa nostra, et periit spes nostra, et abscissi sumus.
12 Therefore prophesy and say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
Propterea vaticinare, et dices ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego aperiam tumulos vestros, et educam vos de sepulchris vestris populus meus: et inducam vos in terram Israel.
13 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you out of your graves,
Et scietis quia ego Dominus, cum aparuero sepulchra vestra, et eduxero vos de tumulis vestris popule meus:
14 And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken [it], and performed [it], saith the LORD.
Et dedero spiritum meum in vobis, et vixeritis, et requiescere vos faciam super humum vestram: et scietis quia ego Dominus locutus sum, et feci, ait Dominus Deus.
15 The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel his companions:
Et tu fili hominis sume tibi lignum unum: et scribe super illud: Iudæ, et filiorum Israel sociorum eius: et tolle lignum alterum, et scribe super illud: Ioseph ligno Ephraim, et cunctæ domui Israel, sociorumque eius.
17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thy hand.
Et adiunge illa, unum ad alterum tibi in lignum unum: et erunt in unionem in manu tua.
18 And when the children of thy people shall speak to thee, saying, Wilt thou not show us what thou [meanest] by these?
Cum autem dixerint ad te filii populi tui loquentes: Nonne indicas nobis quid in his tibi velis?
19 Say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, [even] with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in my hand.
loqueris ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego assumam lignum Ioseph, quod est in manu Ephraim, et tribus Israel, quæ sunt ei adiunctæ: et dabo eas pariter cum ligno Iuda, et faciam eas in lignum unum: et erunt unum in manu eius.
20 And the sticks on which thou writest shall be in thy hand before their eyes.
Erunt autem ligna, super quæ scripseris in manu tua, in oculis eorum.
21 And say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they are gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
Et dices ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego assumam filios Israel de medio nationum, ad quas abierunt: et congregabo eos undique, et adducam eos ad humum suam.
22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:
Et faciam eos in gentem unam in terra in montibus Israel, et rex unus erit omnibus imperans: et non erunt ultra duæ gentes, nec dividentur amplius in duo regna.
23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwelling-places, in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
Neque polluentur ultra in idolis suis, et abominationibus suis, et cunctis iniquitatibus suis: et salvos eos faciam de universis sedibus, in quibus peccaverunt, et emundabo eos: et erunt mihi populus, et ego ero eis Deus.
24 And David my servant [shall be] king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.
Et servus meus David rex super eos, et pastor unus erit omnium eorum: in iudiciis meis ambulabunt, et mandata mea custodient, et facient ea.
25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob my servant, in which your fathers have dwelt, and they shall dwell in it, [even] they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David [shall be] their prince for ever.
Et habitabunt super terram, quam dedi servo meo Iacob, in qua habitaverunt patres vestri: et habitabunt super eam ipsi, et filii eorum, et filii filiorum eorum, usque in sempiternum: et David servus meus princeps eorum in perpetuum.
26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.
Et percutiam illis fœdus pacis, pactum sempiternum erit eis: et fundabo eos, et multiplicabo, et dabo sanctificationem meam in medio eorum in perpetuum.
27 My tabernacle also shall be with them: and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Et erit tabernaculum meum in eis: et ero eis Deus, et ipsi erunt mihi populus.
28 And the heathen shall know that I the LORD do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for ever.
Et scient Gentes quia ego Dominus sanctificator Israel, cum fuerit sanctificatio mea in medio eorum in perpetuum.
