< Ezekiel 22 >
1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
2 'And thou, son of man, dost thou judge? dost thou judge the city of blood? then thou hast caused it to know all its abominations,
Et tu fili hominis nonne iudicas, nonne iudicas civitatem sanguinum?
3 and thou hast said: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: The city is shedding blood in its midst, For the coming in of its time, And it hath made idols on it for defilement.
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 By thy blood that thou hast shed thou hast been guilty, And by thine idols that thou hast made thou hast been defiled, And thou causest thy days to draw near, And art come in unto thine years, Therefore I have given thee a reproach to nations, And a derision to all the lands.
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 The near and the far-off from thee scoff at thee, O defiled of name — abounding in trouble.
Quae iuxta sunt, et quae procul a te, triumphabunt de te: sordida, nobilis, grandis interitu.
6 Lo, princes of Israel — each according to his arm Have been in thee to shed blood.
Ecce principes Israel singuli in brachio suo fuerunt in te ad effundendum sanguinem.
7 Father and mother made light of in thee, To a sojourner they dealt oppressively in thy midst, Fatherless and widow they oppressed in thee.
Patrem, et matrem contumeliis affecerunt in te, advenam calumniati sunt in medio tui, pupillum et viduam contristaverunt apud te:
8 My holy things thou hast despised, And My sabbaths thou hast polluted.
Sanctuaria mea sprevistis, et sabbata mea polluistis.
9 Men of slander have been in thee to shed blood, And on the mountains they have eaten in thee, Wickedness they have done in thy midst.
Viri detractores fuerunt in te ad effundendum sanguinem, et super montes comederunt in te, scelus operati sunt in medio tui.
10 The nakedness of a father hath one uncovered in thee, The defiled of impurity they humbled in thee.
Verecundiora patris discooperuerunt in te, immunditiam menstruatae humiliaverunt in te.
11 And each with the wife of his neighbour hath done abomination, And each his daughter-in-law hath defiled through wickedness, And each his sister, his father's daughter, hath humbled in thee.
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 A bribe they have taken in thee to shed blood, Usury and increase thou hast taken, And cuttest off thy neighbour by oppression, And Me thou hast forgotten, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!
Munera acceperunt apud te ad effundendum sanguinem: usuram, et superabundantiam accepisti, et avare proximos tuos calumniabaris: meique oblita es, ait Dominus Deus.
13 And lo, I have smitten My hand, Because of thy dishonest gain that thou hast gained, And for thy blood that hath been in thy midst.
Ecce complosi manus meas super avaritiam tuam, quam fecisti, et super sanguinem, qui effusus est in medio tui.
14 Doth thy heart stand — are thy hands strong, For the days that I am dealing with thee? I, Jehovah, have spoken and have done [it].
Numquid sustinebit cor tuum, aut praevalebunt manus tuae in diebus, quos ego faciam tibi? ego Dominus locutus sum, et faciam.
15 And I have scattered thee among nations, And have spread thee out among lands, And consumed thy uncleanness out of thee.
Et dispergam te in nationes, et ventilabo te in terras, et deficere faciam immunditiam tuam a te.
16 And thou hast been polluted in thyself Before the eyes of nations, And thou hast known that I [am] Jehovah.'
Et possidebo te in conspectu Gentium: et scies quia ego Dominus.
17 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, 'Son of man,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
18 The house of Israel hath been to Me for dross, All of them [are] brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, In the midst of a furnace — dross hath silver been,
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, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because of your all becoming dross, Therefore, lo, I am gathering you unto the midst of Jerusalem,
Propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus: Eo quod versi estis omnes in scoriam, propterea ecce ego congregabo vos in medio Ierusalem,
20 A gathering of silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, Unto the midst of a furnace — to blow on it fire, to melt it, So do I gather in Mine anger and in My fury, And I have let rest, and have melted 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 And I have heaped you up, And blown on you in the fire of My wrath, And ye have been melted in its midst.
Et congregabo vos, et succendam vos in igne furoris mei, et conflabimini in medio eius.
22 As the melting of silver in the midst of a furnace, So are ye melted in its midst, And ye have known that I, Jehovah, I have poured out My fury upon you.'
Ut conflatur argentum in medio fornacis, sic eritis in medio eius: et scietis quia ego Dominus, cum effuderim indignationem meam super vos.
23 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
24 'Son of man, say to it, Thou [art] a land, It [is] not cleansed nor rained on in a day of indignation.
Fili hominis, dic ei: Tu es terra immunda, et non compluta in die furoris.
25 A conspiracy of its prophets [is] in its midst, as a roaring lion tearing prey; The soul they have devoured, Wealth and glory they have taken, Its widows have multiplied in its midst.
Coniuratio prophetarum in medio eius, sicut leo rugiens, rapiensque praedam, animas devoraverunt, opes et pretium acceperunt, viduas eius multiplicaverunt in medio illius.
26 Its priests have wronged My law, And they pollute My holy things, Between holy and common they have not made separation, And between the unclean and the clean they have not made known, And from my sabbaths they have hidden their eyes, And I am pierced in their midst.
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 Its princes in its midst [are] as wolves, Tearing prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, For the sake of gaining dishonest gain.
Principes eius in medio illius, quasi lupi rapientes praedam ad effundendum sanguinem, et ad perdendas animas, et avare ad sectanda lucra.
28 And its prophets have daubed for them with chalk, Seeing a vain thing, and divining for them a lie, Saying, 'Thus said the Lord Jehovah:' And Jehovah hath 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 have taken plunder violently away, And humble and needy have oppressed, And the sojourner oppressed — without judgment.
Populi terrae calumniabantur calumniam, et rapiebant violenter: egenum, et pauperem affligebant, et advenam opprimebant calumnia absque iudicio.
30 And I seek of them a man making a fence, And standing in the breach before Me, In behalf of the land — not to destroy it, And I have not found.
Et quaesivi de eis virum, qui interponeret sepem, et staret oppositus contra me pro terra, ne dissiparem eam: et non inveni.
31 And I pour out on them mine indignation, By fire of My wrath I have consumed them, Their way on their own head I have put, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'
Et effudi super eos indignationem meam, in igne irae meae consumpsi eos: viam eorum in caput eorum reddidi, ait Dominus Deus.
