Ezekiel 22
1 Moreover Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
2 “You, son of man, will you judge? Will you judge the bloody city? Then cause her to know all her abominations.
Et tu fili hominis nonne iudicas, nonne iudicas civitatem sanguinum?
3 You shall say, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “A city that sheds blood within herself, that her time may come, and that makes idols against herself to defile her!
et ostendes ei omnes abominationes suas, et dices: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Civitas effundens sanguinem in medio sui ut veniat tempus eius: et quae fecit idola contra semetipsam ut pollueretur.
4 You have become guilty in your blood that you have shed, and are defiled in your idols which you have made! You have caused your days to draw near, and have come to the end of your years. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations, and a mocking to all the countries.
In sanguine tuo, qui a te effusus est, deliquisti: et in idolis tuis, quae fecisti, polluta es: et appropinquare fecisti dies tuos, et adduxisti tempus annorum tuorum: propterea dedi te opprobrium Gentibus, et irrisionem universis terris.
5 Those who are near and those who are far from you will mock you, you infamous one, full of tumult.
Quae iuxta sunt, et quae procul a te, triumphabunt de te: sordida, nobilis, grandis interitu.
6 “‘“Behold, the princes of Israel, everyone according to his power, have been in you to shed blood.
Ecce principes Israel singuli in brachio suo fuerunt in te ad effundendum sanguinem.
7 In you have they treated father and mother with contempt. Among you they have oppressed the foreigner. In you they have wronged the fatherless and the widow.
Patrem, et matrem contumeliis affecerunt in te, advenam calumniati sunt in medio tui, pupillum et viduam contristaverunt apud te:
8 You have despised my holy things, and have profaned my Sabbaths.
Sanctuaria mea sprevistis, et sabbata mea polluistis.
9 Slanderous men have been in you to shed blood. In you they have eaten on the mountains. They have committed lewdness among you.
Viri detractores fuerunt in te ad effundendum sanguinem, et super montes comederunt in te, scelus operati sunt in medio tui.
10 In you have they uncovered their fathers’ nakedness. In you have they humbled her who was unclean in her impurity.
Verecundiora patris discooperuerunt in te, immunditiam menstruatae humiliaverunt in te.
11 One has committed abomination with his neighbor’s wife, and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law. Another in you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter.
Et unusquisque in uxorem proximi sui operatus est abominationem, et socer nurum suam polluit nefarie, frater sororem suam filiam patris sui oppressit in te.
12 In you have they taken bribes to shed blood. You have taken interest and increase, and you have greedily gained of your neighbors by oppression, and have forgotten me,” says the Lord Yahweh.
Munera acceperunt apud te ad effundendum sanguinem: usuram, et superabundantiam accepisti, et avare proximos tuos calumniabaris: meique oblita es, ait Dominus Deus.
13 “‘“Behold, therefore I have struck my hand at your dishonest gain which you have made, and at the blood which has been shed within you.
Ecce complosi manus meas super avaritiam tuam, quam fecisti, et super sanguinem, qui effusus est in medio tui.
14 Can your heart endure, or can your hands be strong, in the days that I will deal with you? I, Yahweh, have spoken it, and will do it.
Numquid sustinebit cor tuum, aut praevalebunt manus tuae in diebus, quos ego faciam tibi? ego Dominus locutus sum, et faciam.
15 I will scatter you among the nations, and disperse you through the countries. I will purge your filthiness out of you.
Et dispergam te in nationes, et ventilabo te in terras, et deficere faciam immunditiam tuam a te.
16 You will be profaned in yourself in the sight of the nations. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.”’”
Et possidebo te in conspectu Gentium: et scies quia ego Dominus.
17 Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
18 “Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to me. All of them are bronze, tin, iron, and lead in the middle of the furnace. They are the dross of silver.
Fili hominis, versa est mihi domus Israel in scoriam: omnes isti aes, et stannum, et ferrum, et plumbum in medio fornacis: scoria argenti facti sunt.
19 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: ‘Because you have all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the middle of Jerusalem.
Propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus: Eo quod versi estis omnes in scoriam, propterea ecce ego congregabo vos in medio Ierusalem,
20 As they gather silver, bronze, iron, lead, and tin into the middle of the furnace, to blow the fire on it, to melt it, so I will gather you in my anger and in my wrath, and I will lay you there and melt you.
congregatione argenti, et aeris, et stanni, et ferri, et plumbi in medio fornacis: ut succendam in ea ignem ad conflandum. sic congregabo in furore meo, et in ira mea, et requiescam: et conflabo vos.
21 Yes, I will gather you, and blow on you with the fire of my wrath, and you will be melted in the middle of it.
Et congregabo vos, et succendam vos in igne furoris mei, et conflabimini in medio eius.
22 As silver is melted in the middle of the furnace, so you will be melted in the middle of it; and you will know that I, Yahweh, have poured out my wrath on you.’”
Ut conflatur argentum in medio fornacis, sic eritis in medio eius: et scietis quia ego Dominus, cum effuderim indignationem meam super vos.
23 Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
24 “Son of man, tell her, ‘You are a land that is not cleansed nor rained on in the day of indignation.’
Fili hominis, dic ei: Tu es terra immunda, et non compluta in die furoris.
25 There is a conspiracy of her prophets within it, like a roaring lion ravening the prey. They have devoured souls. They take treasure and precious things. They have made many widows within it.
Coniuratio prophetarum in medio eius, sicut leo rugiens, rapiensque praedam, animas devoraverunt, opes et pretium acceperunt, viduas eius multiplicaverunt in medio illius.
26 Her priests have done violence to my law and have profaned my holy things. They have made no distinction between the holy and the common, neither have they caused men to discern between the unclean and the clean, and have hidden their eyes from my Sabbaths. So I am profaned among them.
Sacerdotes eius contempserunt legem meam, et polluerunt sanctuaria mea: inter sanctum et profanum non habuerunt distantiam: et inter pollutum et mundum non intellexerunt: et a sabbatis meis averterunt oculos suos, et coinquinabar in medio eorum.
27 Her princes within it are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood and to destroy souls, that they may get dishonest gain.
Principes eius in medio illius, quasi lupi rapientes praedam ad effundendum sanguinem, et ad perdendas animas, et avare ad sectanda lucra.
28 Her prophets have plastered for them with whitewash, seeing false visions, and divining lies to them, saying, ‘The Lord Yahweh says,’ when Yahweh has not spoken.
Prophetae autem eius liniebant eos absque temperamento, videntes vana, et divinantes eis mendacium, dicentes: Haec dicit Dominus Deus, cum Dominus non sit locutus.
29 The people of the land have used oppression and exercised robbery. Yes, they have troubled the poor and needy, and have oppressed the foreigner wrongfully.
Populi terrae calumniabantur calumniam, et rapiebant violenter: egenum, et pauperem affligebant, et advenam opprimebant calumnia absque iudicio.
30 “I sought for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I would not destroy it; but I found no one.
Et quaesivi de eis virum, qui interponeret sepem, et staret oppositus contra me pro terra, ne dissiparem eam: et non inveni.
31 Therefore I have poured out my indignation on them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have brought their own way on their heads,” says the Lord Yahweh.
Et effudi super eos indignationem meam, in igne irae meae consumpsi eos: viam eorum in caput eorum reddidi, ait Dominus Deus.
