Hiezechielis Prophetæ 11
1 et elevavit me spiritus et introduxit me ad portam domus Domini orientalem quae respicit solis ortum et ecce in introitu portae viginti quinque viri et vidi in medio eorum Hiezoniam filium Azur et Pheltiam filium Banaiae principes populi
And the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of Jehovah's house, which looketh eastward; and behold, at the door of the gate were five and twenty men; and I saw in the midst of them Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
2 dixitque ad me fili hominis hii viri qui cogitant iniquitatem et tractant consilium pessimum in urbe ista
And he said unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise iniquity, and give wicked counsel in this city:
3 dicentes nonne dudum aedificatae sunt domus haec est lebes nos autem carnes
who say, It is not the time to build houses: this is the cauldron, and we are the flesh.
4 idcirco vaticinare de eis vaticinare fili hominis
Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, son of man.
5 et inruit in me spiritus Domini et dixit ad me loquere haec dicit Dominus sic locuti estis domus Israhel et cogitationes cordis vestri ego novi
And the Spirit of Jehovah fell on me, and said unto me, Speak, Thus saith Jehovah: Thus have ye said, O house of Israel; and the things that come into your mind, I know them.
6 plurimos occidistis in urbe hac et implestis vias eius interfectis
Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain.
7 propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus interfecti vestri quos posuistis in medio eius hii sunt carnes et haec est lebes et educam vos de medio eius
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Your slain whom ye have laid in the midst of it, they are the flesh, and it is the cauldron; but you will I bring forth out of the midst of it.
8 gladium metuistis et gladium inducam super vos ait Dominus Deus
Ye have feared the sword, and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the Lord Jehovah.
9 et eiciam vos de medio eius daboque vos in manu hostium et faciam in vobis iudicia
And I will bring you out of the midst of it, and give you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
10 gladio cadetis in finibus Israhel iudicabo vos et scietis quia ego Dominus
Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the borders of Israel; and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
11 haec non erit vobis in lebetem et vos non eritis in medio eius in carnes in finibus Israhel iudicabo vos
This shall not be your cauldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst of it: I will judge you in the borders of Israel;
12 et scietis quia ego Dominus qui in praeceptis meis non ambulastis et iudicia mea non fecistis sed iuxta iudicia gentium quae in circuitu vestro sunt estis operati
and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah, in whose statutes ye have not walked, neither have done mine ordinances, but have done after the ordinances of the nations that are round about you.
13 et factum est cum prophetarem Pheltias filius Banaiae mortuus est et cecidi in faciem meam clamans voce magna et dixi heu heu heu Domine Deus consummationem tu facis reliquiarum Israhel
And it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. And I fell down on my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah, Lord Jehovah! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?
14 et factum est verbum Domini ad me dicens
And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
15 fili hominis fratres tui fratres tui viri propinqui tui et omnis domus Israhel universi quibus dixerunt habitatores Hierusalem longe recedite a Domino nobis data est terra in possessionem
Son of man, [it is] thy brethren, thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel, the whole of it, unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem say, Get you far from Jehovah: unto us is this land given for a possession.
16 propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus quia longe feci eos in gentibus et quia dispersi eos in terris ero eis in sanctificationem modicam in terris ad quas venerunt
Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Although I have removed them far off among the nations, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries whither they are come.
17 propterea loquere haec dicit Dominus Deus congregabo vos de populis et adunabo de terris in quibus dispersi estis daboque vobis humum Israhel
Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will even gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where ye are scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
18 et ingredientur illuc et auferent omnes offensiones cunctasque abominationes eius de illa
And they shall come thither, and they shall take away from thence all its detestable things and all its abominations.
19 et dabo eis cor unum et spiritum novum tribuam in visceribus eorum et auferam cor lapideum de carne eorum et dabo eis cor carneum
And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take away the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh;
20 ut in praeceptis meis ambulent et iudicia mea custodiant faciantque ea et sint mihi in populum et ego sim eis in Deum
that they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them; and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
21 quorum cor post offendicula et abominationes suas ambulat horum viam in capite suo ponam dicit Dominus Deus
But as for them whose heart walketh well-pleased with their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their heads, saith the Lord Jehovah.
22 et elevaverunt cherubin alas suas et rotae cum eis et gloria Dei Israhel erat super ea
And the cherubim lifted up their wings, and the wheels were beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
23 et ascendit gloria Domini de medio civitatis stetitque super montem qui est ad orientem urbis
And the glory of Jehovah went up from the midst of the city, and stood upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
24 et spiritus levavit me adduxitque in Chaldeam ad transmigrationem in visione in spiritu Dei et sublata est a me visio quam videram
And the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity; and the vision that I had seen went up from me.
25 et locutus sum ad transmigrationem omnia verba Domini quae ostenderat mihi
And I spoke unto them of the captivity all the things that Jehovah had shewn me.
