Ezequiel 3

1 Entonces me dijo: Hijo de hombre, come lo que hallas. Come este rollo y vé a hablar a la Casa de Israel.

Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, eat that you find; eat this roll, and go speak unto the house of Israel.

2 Entonces abrí mi boca y Él me dio a comer el rollo.

So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll.

3 Me dijo: Hijo de hombre, alimenta tu estómago y llena tu cuerpo con este rollo que te doy. Entonces lo comí, y fue dulce como miel en mi boca.

And he said unto me, Son of man, cause your belly to eat, and fill your bowels with this roll that I give you. Then did I eat it; and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.

4 Entonces me dijo: Hijo de hombre, vé a la Casa de Israel y háblales mis Palabras.

And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get you unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.

5 Porque no eres enviado a un pueblo de habla incomprensible ni de lenguaje difícil, sino a la Casa de Israel.

For you are not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language, but to the house of Israel;

6 No [eres enviado] a muchos pueblos de habla incomprensible ni de lenguaje difícil, cuyas palabras no entiendes. Si te enviara a ellos, sí te escucharían.

Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard language, whose words you can not understand. Surely, had I sent you to them, they would have hearkened unto you.

7 Sin embargo, la Casa de Israel no estará dispuesta a escucharte, porque no quieren escucharme a Mí. Ciertamente la Casa de Israel es indómita y obstinada.

But the house of Israel will not hearken unto you; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel are shameless and hardhearted.

8 Mira, yo endurezco tu cara como las caras de ellos, y tu frente como las frentes de ellos.

Behold, I have made your face strong against their faces, and your forehead strong against their foreheads.

9 Hice tu frente como diamante, más dura que pedernal. No temas ni desmayes ante ellos.

As an adamant harder than flint have I made your forehead: fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.

10 Además me dijo: Hijo de hombre, recibe en tu corazón todas mis Palabras que te hablo, y escúchalas con tus oídos.

Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak unto you receive in your heart, and hear with your ears.

11 Y vé a los cautivos, a los hijos de tu pueblo. Háblales: Así dice ʼAdonay Yavé, si te escuchan o te rechazan.

And go, get you to them of the captivity, unto the children of your people, and speak unto them, and tell them, Thus says the Lord GOD; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.

12 Entonces el Espíritu me levantó, y oí detrás de mí un estruendo tumultuoso: Bendita sea la gloria de Yavé desde su morada.

Then the spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, saying, Blessed be the glory of the LORD from his place.

13 El sonido de las alas de los seres vivientes y el sonido de las ruedas que iban junto a ellos formaban un gran estruendo.

I heard also the noise of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the noise of the wheels opposite to them, and a noise of a great rushing.

14 El Espíritu me levantó y me llevó. Yo iba amargado y airado. La mano de Yavé pesaba sobre mí.

So the spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit; but the hand of the LORD was strong upon me.

15 Fui a los cautivos que vivían junto al río Quebar en Tel-Abib y estuve allí siete días asombrado entre ellos.

Then I came to them of the captivity at Telabib, that dwelt by the river of Chebar, and I sat where they sat, and remained there astonished among them seven days.

16 Al terminar los siete días aconteció que la Palabra de Yavé vino a mí:

And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

17 Hijo de hombre, Yo te designé como centinela para la Casa de Israel. Cuando oigas una Palabra de mi boca, les advertirás de parte mía.

Son of man, I have made you a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.

18 Cuando Yo diga al perverso: Ciertamente morirás, y tú no se lo adviertas ni le hables, para que el perverso se aparte de su mal camino a fin de que viva, el perverso morirá por su perversidad, pero Yo demandaré su sangre de tu mano.

When I say unto the wicked, You shall surely die; and you give him not warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at your hand.

19 Pero si tú amonestas al perverso, y él no se convierte de su perversidad y de su perverso camino, él morirá por su perversidad, pero tú librarás tu vida.

Yet if you warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul.

20 Si algún justo se aparta de su justicia y comete maldad, pondré un tropiezo delante de él y morirá, porque tú no se lo advertiste. Por su pecado morirá y las obras de justicia que hizo no serán tomadas en cuenta, pero Yo demandaré su sangre de tu mano.

Again, When a righteous man does turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die: because you have not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at your hand.

21 Pero si adviertes al justo para que no peque, y él no peca, ciertamente vivirá porque recibió advertencia, y tú te librarás.

Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he does not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also you have delivered your soul.

22 Y la mano de Yavé estuvo allí sobre mí, y me dijo: Levántate, vé a la llanura. Allí hablaré contigo.

And the hand of the LORD was there upon me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the plain, and I will there talk with you.

23 Me levanté y fui a la llanura. Allí estaba la gloria de Yavé, como la gloria que vi junto al río Quebar, y caí sobre mi rostro.

Then I arose, and went forth into the plain: and, behold, the glory of the LORD stood there, as the glory which I saw by the river of Chebar: and I fell on my face.

24 Entonces el Espíritu entró en mí, me puso en pie, y habló conmigo: Vé, enciérrate en tu casa.

Then the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet, and spoke with me, and said unto me, Go, shut yourself within your house.

25 En cuanto a ti, hijo de hombre, ciertamente te pondrán sogas y te atarán con ellas, para que no salgas a ellos.

But you, O son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon you, and shall bind you with them, and you shall not go out among them:

26 Yo pegaré tu lengua a tu paladar y quedarás mudo. Ya no podrás reprenderlos, porque son una casa rebelde.

And I will make your tongue cleave to the roof of your mouth, that you shall be dumb, and shall not be to them a reprover: for they are a rebellious house.

27 Pero cuando Yo te hable, abriré tu boca y les dirás: ʼAdonay Yavé dice: El que oye, que escuche y el que rechaza, que rechace, porque ellos son una casa rebelde.

But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; He that hears, let him hear; and he that forbears, let him forbear: for they are a rebellious house.
