Hiezechielis Prophetæ 12
1 et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
2 fili hominis in medio domus exasperantis tu habitas qui oculos habent ad videndum et non vident et aures ad audiendum et non audiunt quia domus exasperans est
“Son of man, you are dwelling in the midst of the house of rebellion, that have eyes to see, and they have not seen; they have ears to hear, and they have not heard; for they [are] a house of rebellion.
3 tu ergo fili hominis fac tibi vasa transmigrationis et transmigrabis per diem coram eis transmigrabis autem de loco tuo ad locum alterum in conspectu eorum si forte aspiciant quia domus exasperans est
And you, son of man, make your vessels of removal, and remove by day before their eyes, and you have removed from your place to another place before their eyes, it may be they consider, for they [are] a house of rebellion.
4 et efferes foras vasa tua quasi vasa transmigrantis per diem in conspectu eorum tu autem egredieris vespere coram eis sicut egreditur migrans
And you have brought forth your vessels as vessels of removal by day before their eyes, and you go forth in the evening before their eyes, as the goings forth of a removal.
5 ante oculos eorum perfodi tibi parietem et egredieris per eum
You dig through the wall before their eyes, and you have brought forth by it.
6 in conspectu eorum in umeris portaberis in caligine effereris faciem tuam velabis et non videbis terram quia portentum dedi te domui Israhel
Carry on the shoulder before their eyes, bring forth in the darkness, cover your face, and you do not see the earth, for I have given you [as] a sign to the house of Israel.”
7 feci ergo sicut praeceperat mihi vasa mea protuli quasi vasa transmigrantis per diem et vespere perfodi mihi parietem manu in caligine egressus sum et in umeris portatus in conspectu eorum
And I do so, as I have been commanded; I have brought forth my vessels as vessels of removal by day, and I have dug through the wall with my hand in the evening; I have brought forth in the darkness, I have carried away on the shoulder, before their eyes.
8 et factus est sermo Domini ad me mane dicens
And there is a word of YHWH to me, in the morning, saying,
9 fili hominis numquid non dixerunt ad te domus Israhel domus exasperans quid tu facis
“Son of man, have they not said to you—the house of Israel—the house of rebellion—What are you doing?
10 dic ad eos haec dicit Dominus Deus super ducem onus istud qui est in Hierusalem et super omnem domum Israhel quae est in medio eorum
Say to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: This burden [concerns] the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel who are in their midst.
11 dic ego portentum vestrum quomodo feci sic fiet illis in transmigrationem et captivitatem ibunt
Say: I [am] your sign; as I have done so it is done to them, into a removal, into a captivity, they go.
12 et dux qui est in medio eorum in umeris portabitur in caligine egredietur parietem perfodient ut educant eum facies eius operietur ut non videat oculo terram
As for the prince who [is] in their midst, he carries on the shoulder in the darkness, and he goes forth; they dig through the wall to bring forth by it; he covers his face that he may not look on the very surface of the land.
13 et extendam rete meum super illum et capietur in sagena mea et adducam eum in Babylonem in terram Chaldeorum et ipsam non videbit ibique morietur
And I have spread My net for him, and he has been caught in My snare, and I have brought him to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, and he does not see it—and he dies there.
14 et omnes qui circa eum sunt praesidium eius et agmina eius dispergam in omnem ventum et gladium evaginabo post eos
And all who are around him to help him, and all his bands, I scatter to every wind, and I draw out a sword after them.
15 et scient quia ego Dominus quando dispersero illos in gentibus et disseminavero eos in terris
And they have known that I [am] YHWH, in My scattering them among nations, and I have spread them through lands;
16 et relinquam ex eis viros paucos a gladio et fame et pestilentia ut narrent omnia scelera eorum in gentibus ad quas ingredientur et scient quia ego Dominus
and I have left of them, a few in number, from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence, so that they recount all their abominations among the nations to where they have come, and they have known that I [am] YHWH.”
17 et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
18 fili hominis panem tuum in conturbatione comede sed et aquam tuam in festinatione et maerore bibe
“Son of man, eat your bread in haste, and drink your water with trembling and with fear;
19 et dices ad populum terrae haec dicit Dominus Deus ad eos qui habitant in Hierusalem in terra Israhel panem suum in sollicitudine comedent et aquam suam in desolatione bibent ut desoletur terra a multitudine sua propter iniquitatem omnium qui habitant in ea
and you have said to the people of the land, Thus said Lord YHWH concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, concerning the land of Israel: They eat their bread with fear, and drink their water with astonishment, because its land is desolate, because of its fullness, because of the violence of all who are dwelling in it.
20 et civitates quae nunc habitantur desolatae erunt terraque deserta et scietis quia ego Dominus
And the cities that are inhabited are laid waste, and the land is a desolation, and you have known that I [am] YHWH.”
21 et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
22 fili hominis quod est proverbium istud vobis in terra Israhel dicentium in longum differentur dies et peribit omnis visio
“Son of man, what [is] this allegory to you, concerning the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision has perished?
23 ideo dic ad eos haec dicit Dominus Deus quiescere faciam proverbium istud neque vulgo dicetur ultra in Israhel et loquere ad eos quod adpropinquaverint dies et sermo omnis visionis
Therefore say to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: I have caused this allegory to cease, And they do not use it as an allegory in Israel again, But speak to them: The days have drawn near, And every vision has spoken.
24 non enim erit ultra omnis visio cassa neque divinatio ambigua in medio filiorum Israhel
For there is no longer any vain vision, and flattering divination, In the midst of the house of Israel.
25 quia ego Dominus loquar quodcumque locutus fuero verbum et fiet non prolongabitur amplius sed in diebus vestris domus exasperans loquar verbum et faciam illud dicit Dominus Deus
For I, YHWH, speak, The word that I speak—it is done, It is not prolonged anymore, For in your days, O house of rebellion, I speak a word, and I have done it, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”
26 et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
27 fili hominis ecce domus Israhel dicentium visio quam hic videt in dies multos et in tempora longa iste prophetat
“Son of man, behold, the house of Israel is saying, The vision that he is seeing [is not] for many days, and he is prophesying of far-off times,
28 propterea dic ad eos haec dicit Dominus Deus non prolongabitur ultra omnis sermo meus verbum quod locutus fuero conplebitur dicit Dominus Deus
therefore say to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: None of My words are prolonged anymore, When I speak a word—it is done, A declaration of Lord YHWH!”
