Ezekiel 16
1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
2 'Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations, and thou hast said:
Fili hominis notas fac Ierusalem abominationes suas:
3 Thus said the Lord Jehovah to Jerusalem: Thy birth and thy nativity [Are] of the land of the Canaanite, Thy father the Amorite, and thy mother a Hittite.
et dices: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Ierusalem: Radix tua, et generatio tua de terra Chanaan: pater tuus Amorrhæus, et mater tua Cethæa.
4 As to thy nativity, in the day thou wast born, Thou — thy navel hath not been cut, And in water thou wast not washed for ease, And thou hast not been salted at all, And thou hast not been swaddled at all.
Et quando nata es in die ortus tui non est præcisus umbilicus tuus, et aqua non es lota in salutem, nec sale salita, nec involuta pannis.
5 No eye hath had pity on thee, to do to thee any of these, To have compassion on thee, And thou art cast on the face of the field, With loathing of thy person. In the day thou hast been born — thou!
Non pepercit super te oculus ut faceret tibi unum de his, misertus tui: sed proiecta es super faciem terræ in abiectione animæ tuæ, in die qua nata es.
6 And I do pass over by thee, And I see thee trodden down in thy blood, And I say to thee in thy blood, Live, And I say to thee in thy blood, Live.
Transiens autem per te, vidi te conculcari in sanguine tuo. Et dixi tibi cum esses in sanguine tuo: Vive: dixi, inquam, tibi in sanguine tuo: Vive.
7 A myriad — as the shoot of the field I have made thee, And thou art multiplied, and art great, And comest in with an excellent adornment, Breasts have been formed, and thy hair hath grown — And thou, naked and bare!
Multiplicatam quasi germen agri dedi te: et multiplicata es, et grandis effecta, et ingressa es, et pervenisti ad mundum muliebrem: ubera tua intumuerunt, et pilus tuus germinavit: et eras nuda, et confusione plena.
8 And I pass over by thee, and I see thee, And lo, thy time [is] a time of loves, And I spread My skirt over thee, And I cover thy nakedness, And I swear to thee, and come in to a covenant with thee, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And thou dost become Mine.
Et transivi per te, et vidi te: et ecce tempus tuum, tempus amantium: et expandi amictum meum super te, et operui ignominiam tuam. Et iuravi tibi, et ingressus sum pactum tecum: ait Dominus Deus: et facta es mihi.
9 And I do wash thee with water, And I wash away thy blood from off thee, And I anoint thee with perfume.
Et lavi te aqua, et emundavi sanguinem tuum ex te: et unxi te oleo.
10 And I clothe thee with embroidery, And I shoe thee with badger's skin, And I gird thee with fine linen, And I cover thee with figured silk.
Et vestivi te discoloribus, et calceavi te ianthino: et cinxi te bysso, et indui te subtilibus.
11 And I adorn thee with adornments, And I give bracelets for thy hands, And a chain for thy neck.
Et ornavi te ornamento, et dedi armillas in manibus tuis, et torquem circa collum tuum.
12 And I give a ring for thy nose, And rings for thine ears, And a crown of beauty on thy head.
Et dedi inaurem super os tuum, et circulos auribus tuis, et coronam decoris in capite tuo.
13 And thou dost put on gold and silver, And thy clothing [is] fine linen, And figured silk and embroidery, Fine flour, and honey, and oil thou hast eaten, And thou art very very beautiful, And dost go prosperously to the kingdom.
Et ornata es auro, et argento, et vestita es bysso, et polymito, et multicoloribus: similam, et mel, et oleum comedisti, et decora facta es vehementer nimis: et profecisti in regnum.
14 And go forth doth thy name among nations, Because of thy beauty — for it [is] complete, In My honour that I have set upon thee, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
Et egressum est nomen tuum in Gentes propter speciem tuam: quia perfecta eras in decore meo, quem posueram super te, dicit Dominus Deus.
15 And thou dost trust in thy beauty, And goest a-whoring because of thy renown, And dost pour out thy whoredoms On every passer by — to him it is.
Et habens fiduciam in pulchritudine tua fornicata es in nomine tuo: et exposuisti fornicationem tuam omni transeunti ut eius fieres.
16 And thou dost take of thy garments, And dost make to thee spotted high-places, And dost go a-whoring upon them, They are not coming in — nor shall it be!
Et sumens de vestimentis tuis fecisti tibi excelsa hinc inde consuta: et fornicata es super eis, sicut non est factum, neque futurum est.
17 And thou dost take thy beauteous vessels Of My gold and My silver that I gave to thee, And dost make to thee images of a male, And dost go a-whoring with them,
Et tulisti vasa decoris tui de auro meo, atque argento meo, quæ dedi tibi: et fecisti tibi imagines masculinas, et fornicata es in eis.
18 And dost take the garments of thy embroidery, And thou dost cover them, And My oil and My perfume thou hast set before them.
Et sumpsisti vestimenta tua multicoloria, et operuisti illas: et oleum meum, et thymiama meum posuisti coram eis.
19 And My bread, that I gave to thee, Fine flour, and oil, and honey, that I caused thee to eat. Thou hast even set it before them, For a sweet fragrance — thus it is, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
Et panem meum, quem dedi tibi, similam, et oleum, et mel, quibus enutrivi te, posuisti in conspectu eorum in odorem suavitatis, et factum est, ait Dominus Deus.
20 And thou dost take thy sons and thy daughters Whom thou hast born to Me, And dost sacrifice them to them for food. Is it a little thing because of thy whoredoms,
Et tulisti filios tuos, et filias tuas, quas generasti mihi: et immolasti eis ad devorandum. Numquid parva est fornicatio tua?
21 That thou dost slaughter My sons, And dost give them up in causing them to pass over to them?
Immolasti filios meos, et dedisti, illos consecrans, eis.
22 And with all thine abominations and thy whoredoms, Thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, When thou wast naked and bare, Trodden down in thy blood thou wast!
Et post omnes abominationes tuas, et fornicationes, non es recordata dierum adolescentiæ tuæ, quando eras nuda, et confusione plena, conculcata in sanguine tuo.
23 And it cometh to pass, after all thy wickedness, (Woe, woe, to thee — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah),
Et accidit post omnem malitiam tuam (væ, væ tibi, ait Dominus Deus)
24 That thou dost build to thee an arch, And dost make to thee a high place in every broad place.
et ædificasti tibi lupanar, et fecisti tibi prostibulum in cunctis plateis.
25 At every head of the way thou hast built thy high place, And thou dost make thy beauty abominable, And dost open wide thy feet to every passer by, And dost multiply thy whoredoms,
Ad omne caput viæ ædificasti signum prostitutionis tuæ: et abominabilem fecisti decorem tuum: et divisisti pedes tuos omni transeunti, et multiplicasti fornicationes tuas.
26 And dost go a-whoring unto sons of Egypt, Thy neighbours — great of appetite! And thou dost multiply thy whoredoms, To provoke Me to anger.
Et fornicata es cum filiis Ægypti vicinis tuis magnarum carnium: et multiplicasti fornicationem tuam ad irritandum me.
27 And lo, I have stretched out My hand against thee, And I diminish thy portion, And give thee to the desire of those hating thee, The daughters of the Philistines, Who are ashamed of thy wicked way.
Ecce ego extendam manum meam super te, et auferam iustificationem tuam: et dabo te in animas odientium te filiarum Palæstinarum, quæ erubescunt in via tua scelerata.
28 And thou goest a-whoring unto sons of Asshur, Without thy being satisfied, And thou dost go a-whoring with them, And also — thou hast not been satisfied.
Et fornicata es in filiis Assyriorum, eo quod necdum fueris expleta: et postquam fornicata es, nec sic es satiata.
29 And thou dost multiply thy whoredoms On the land of Canaan — toward Chaldea, And even with this thou hast not been satisfied.
Et multiplicasti fornicationem tuam in Terra Chanaan cum Chaldæis: et nec sic satiata es.
30 How weak [is] thy heart, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, In thy doing all these, The work of a domineering whorish woman.
In quo mundabo cor tuum, ait Dominus Deus; cum facias omnia hæc opera mulieris meretricis, et procacis?
31 In thy building thine arch at the head of every way, Thy high place thou hast made in every broad place, And — hast not been as a whore deriding a gift.
Quia fabricasti lupanar tuum in capite omnis viæ, et excelsum tuum fecisti in omni platea: nec facta es quasi meretrix fastidio augens pretium,
32 The wife who committeth adultery — Under her husband — doth receive strangers.
sed quasi mulier adultera, quæ super virum suum inducit alienos.
33 To all whores they give a gift, And — thou hast given thy gifts to all thy lovers, And dost bribe them to come in unto thee, From round about — in thy whoredoms.
Omnibus meretricibus dantur mercedes: tu autem dedisti mercedes cunctis amatoribus tuis, et dona donabas eis ut intrarent ad te undique ad fornicandum tecum.
34 And the contrary is in thee from women in thy whoredoms, That after thee none doth go a-whoring; And in thy giving a gift, And a gift hath not been given to thee; And thou art become contrary.
Factumque est in te contra consuetudinem mulierum in fornicationibus tuis, et post te non erit fornicatio: in eo enim quod dedisti mercedes, et mercedes non accepisti, factum est in te contrarium.
35 Therefore, O whore, hear a word of Jehovah,
Propterea meretrix audi verbum Domini.
36 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of thy brass being poured forth, And thy nakedness is revealed in thy whoredoms near thy lovers, And near all the idols of thy abominations, And according to the blood of thy sons, Whom thou hast given to them;
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Quia effusum est æs tuum, et revelata est ignominia tua in fornicationibus tuis super amatores tuos, et super idola abominationum tuarum in sanguine filiorum tuorum, quos dedisti eis:
37 Therefore, lo, I am assembling all thy lovers, To whom thou hast been sweet, And all whom thou hast loved, Besides all whom thou hast hated; And I have assembled them by thee round about, And have revealed thy nakedness to them, And they have seen all thy nakedness.
Ecce ego congregabo omnes amatores tuos, quibus commista es, et omnes, quos dilexisti cum universis, quos oderas: et congregabo eos super te undique, et nudabo ignominiam tuam coram eis, et videbunt omnem turpitudinem tuam.
38 And I have judged thee — judgments of adulteresses, And of women shedding blood, And have given thee blood, fury, and jealousy.
Et iudicabo te iudiciis adulterarum, et effundentium sanguinem: et dabo te in sanguinem furoris et zeli.
39 And I have given thee into their hand, And they have thrown down thine arch, And they have broken down thy high places, And they have stript thee of thy garments, And they have taken thy beauteous vessels, And they have left thee naked and bare.
Et dabo te in manus eorum, et destruent lupanar tuum: et demolientur prostibulum tuum: et denudabunt te vestimentis tuis, et auferent vasa decoris tui: et derelinquent te nudam, plenamque ignominia:
40 And have caused an assembly to come up against thee, And stoned thee with stones, And thrust thee through with their swords,
et adducent super te multitudinem, et lapidabunt te lapidibus, et trucidabunt te gladiis suis.
41 And burnt thy houses with fire, And done in thee judgments before the eyes of many women, And I have caused thee to cease from going a-whoring, And also a gift thou givest no more.
Et comburent domos tuas igni, et facient in te iudicia in oculis mulierum plurimarum: et desines fornicari, et mercedes ultra non dabis.
42 And I have caused My fury against thee to rest, And My jealousy hath turned aside from thee, And I have been quiet, and I am not angry any more.
Et requiescet indignatio mea in te: et auferetur zelus meus a te, et quiescam, nec irascar amplius.
43 Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, And dost give trouble to Me in all these, Lo, even I also thy way at first gave up, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, And I did not this thought for all thine abominations.
Eo quod non fueris recordata dierum adolescentiæ tuæ, et provocasti me in omnibus his: quapropter et ego vias tuas in capite tuo dedi, ait Dominus Deus, et non feci iuxta scelera tua in omnibus abominationibus tuis.
44 Lo, every one using a simile, Doth use a simile concerning thee, saying: As the mother — her daughter!
Ecce omnis, qui dicit vulgo proverbium, in te assumet illud, dicens: Sicut mater, ita et filia eius.
45 Thy mother's daughter thou [art], Loathing her husband and her sons, And thy sisters' sister thou [art], Who loathed their husbands and their sons, Your mother [is] a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
Filia matris tuæ es tu, quæ proiecit virum suum, et filios suos: et soror sororum tuarum es tu, quæ proiecerunt viros suos, et filios suos: mater vestra Cethæa, et pater vester Amorrhæus.
46 And thine elder sister [is] Samaria, she and her daughters, Who is dwelling at thy left hand, And thy younger sister, who is dwelling on thy right hand, [is] Sodom and her daughters.
Et soror tua maior, Samaria, ipsa et filiæ eius, quæ habitant ad sinistram tuam: soror autem tua minor te, quæ habitat a dextris tuis, Sodoma, et filiæ eius.
47 And — in their ways thou hast not walked, And according to their abominations done, As a little thing it hath been loathed, And thou dost more corruptly than they in all thy ways.
Sed nec in viis earum ambulasti, neque secundum scelera earum fecisti pauxillum minus: pene sceleratiora fecisti illis in omnibus viis tuis.
48 I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Sodom thy sister hath not done — she and her daughters — As thou hast done — thou and thy daughters.
Vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus, quia non fecit Sodoma soror tua ipsa, et filiæ eius, sicut fecisti tu, et filiæ tuæ.
49 Lo, this hath been the iniquity of Sodom thy sister, Arrogancy, fulness of bread, and quiet ease, Have been to her and to her daughters, And the hand of the afflicted and needy She hath not strengthened.
Ecce hæc fuit iniquitas Sodomæ sororis tuæ, superbia, saturitas panis et abundantia, et otium ipsius, et filiarum eius: et manum egeno, et pauperi non porrigebant.
50 And they are haughty and do abomination before Me, And I turn them aside when I have seen.
Et elevatæ sunt, et fecerunt abominationes coram me: et abstuli eas sicut vidisti.
51 As to Samaria, as the half of thy sins — she hath not sinned, And thou dost multiply thine abominations more than they, And dost justify thy sisters by all thy abominations that thou hast done.
Et Samaria dimidium peccatorum tuorum non peccavit: sed vicisti eas sceleribus tuis, et iustificasti sorores tuas in omnibus abominationibus tuis, quas operata es.
52 Thou also — bear thy shame, That thou hast adjudged to thy sisters, Because of thy sins that thou hast done more abominably than they, They are more righteous than thou, And thou, also, be ashamed and bear thy shame, In thy justifying thy sisters.
Ergo et tu porta confusionem tuam, quæ vicisti sorores tuas peccatis tuis, scelerantius agens ab eis: iustificatæ sunt enim a te: ergo et tu confundere, et porta ignominiam tuam, quæ iustificasti sorores tuas.
53 And I have turned back [to] their captivity, The captivity of Sodom and her daughters, And the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, And the captivity of thy captives in their midst,
Et convertam restituens eas conversione Sodomorum cum filiabus suis, et conversione Samariæ, et filiarum eius: et convertam reversionem tuam in medio earum,
54 So that thou dost bear thy shame, And hast been ashamed of all that thou hast done, In thy comforting them.
ut portes ignominiam tuam, et confundaris in omnibus, quæ fecisti consolans eas.
55 And thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, Do turn back to their former state, And Samaria and her daughters Do turn back to their former state, And thou and thy daughters do turn back to your former state.
Et soror tua Sodoma, et filiæ eius revertentur ad antiquitatem suam: et Samaria, et filiæ eius revertentur ad antiquitatem suam: et tu, et filiæ tuæ revertemini ad antiquitatem vestram.
56 And thy sister Sodom hath not been for a report in thy mouth, In the day of thine arrogancy,
Non fuit autem Sodoma soror tua audita in ore tuo, in die superbiæ tuæ,
57 Before thy wickedness is revealed, As [at] the time of the reproach of the daughters of Aram, And of all her neighbours, the daughters of the Philistines, Who are despising thee round about.
antequam revelaretur malitia tua: sicut hoc tempore in opprobrium filiarum Syriæ, et cunctarum in circuitu tuo filiarum Palæstinarum, quæ ambiunt te per gyrum.
58 Thy devices and thine abominations, Thou hast borne them, an affirmation of Jehovah.
Scelus tuum, et ignominiam tuam tu portasti, ait Dominus Deus.
59 For thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have dealt with thee as thou hast done, In that thou hast despised an oath — to break covenant.
Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Et faciam tibi sicut despexisti iuramentum, ut irritum faceres pactum:
60 And I — I have remembered My covenant with thee, In the days of thy youth, And I have established for thee a covenant age-during.
et recordabor ego pacti mei tecum in diebus adolescentiæ tuæ: et suscitabo tibi pactum sempiternum.
61 And thou hast remembered thy ways, And thou hast been ashamed, In thy receiving thy sisters — Thine elder with thy younger, And I have given them to thee for daughters, And not by thy covenant.
Et recordaberis viarum tuarum, et confunderis: cum receperis sorores tuas te maiores cum minoribus tuis: et dabo eas tibi in filias, sed non ex pacto tuo.
62 And I — I have established My covenant with thee, And thou hast known that I [am] Jehovah.
Et suscitabo ego pactum meum tecum: et scies quia ego Dominus,
63 So that thou dost remember, And thou hast been ashamed, And there is not to thee any more an opening of the mouth because of thy shame, In My receiving atonement for thee, For all that thou hast done, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'
ut recorderis, et confundaris, et non sit tibi ultra aperire os præ confusione tua, cum placatus tibi fuero in omnibus, quæ fecisti, ait Dominus Deus.
