1Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis, quodcumque inveneris, comede: comede volumen istud, et vadens loquere ad filios Israël.
And he said to me: Son of man, eat all that thou shalt find: eat this book, and go speak to the children of Israel.
Et dic ad me: filio de homine, omni inveni, comede: comede volumine isto, et vade loque ad filios Israële.
2Et aperui os meum, et cibavit me volumine illo:
And I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that book:
Et aperi ore meo, et ciba me volumine illo:
3et dixit ad me: Fili hominis, venter tuus comedet, et viscera tua complebuntur volumine isto quod ego do tibi. Et comedi illud, et factum est in ore meo sicut mel dulce.
And he said to me: Son of man, thy belly shall eat, and thy bowels shall be filled with this book, which I give thee, and I did eat it: and it was sweet as honey in my mouth.
Et dic ad me: filio de homine, ventre tuo comede, et visceras tuo comple volumine isto me da quod ad te. Et ad comedo illo, et facto es in ore meo sicut melle dulci.
4Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis, vade ad domum Israël, et loqueris verba mea ad eos.
And he said to me: Son of man, go to the house of Israel, and thou shalt speak my words to them.
Et filio ad me: de homine dic, vade ad domo Israële, et loque verbos meo ad illos.
5Non enim ad populum profundi sermonis et ignotæ linguæ tu mitteris ad domum Israël:
For thou art not sent to a people of a profound speech, and of an unknown tongue, but to the house of Israel:
Non nam ad populo de profundo de sermone et ignoto de lingua te mitte ad domo Israële:
6neque ad populos multos profundi sermonis et ignotæ linguæ, quorum non possis audire sermones: et si ad illos mittereris, ipsi audirent te:
Nor to many nations of a strange speech, and of an unknown tongue, whose words thou canst not understand: and if thou wert sent to them, they would hearken to thee.
Neque ad populos multo de profundo de sermone et ignoto de lingua, de que non pote audire sermones: et si ad illos mitte, ipso audi te:
7domus autem Israël nolunt audire te, quia nolunt audire me: omnis quippe domus Israël attrita fronte est, et duro corde.
But the house of Israel will not hearken to thee: because they will not hearken to me: for all the house of Israel are of a hard forehead and an obstinate heart.
Domo autem Israële ne vol audire te, quia ne vol audire me: omni quippe domo Israële attrita fronte es, et duro corde.
8Ecce dedi faciem tuam valentiorem faciebus eorum, et frontem tuam duriorem frontibus eorum:
Behold I have made thy face stronger than their faces: and thy forehead harder than their foreheads.
Ecce da facie tuo valente ad facies de illos, et fronte tuo duro ad frontes de illos:
9ut adamantem et ut silicem dedi faciem tuam: ne timeas eos, neque metuas a facie eorum, quia domus exasperans est.
I have made thy face like an adamant and like flint: fear them not, neither be thou dismayed at their presence: for they are a provoking house.
Ut adama et ut silice da facie tuo: ne time illos, neque metue ab facie de illos, quia domo exaspera es.
10Et dixit ad me: Fili hominis, omnes sermones meos quos ego loquor ad te, assume in corde tuo, et auribus tuis audi:
And he said to me: Son of man, receive in thy heart, and hear with thy ears, all the words that I speak to thee:
Et dic ad me: filio de homine, omni sermones meo me loque que ad te, abes in corde tuo, et aures tuo audi:
11et vade, ingredere ad transmigrationem, ad filios populi tui, et loqueris ad eos: et dices eis: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: si forte audiant et quiescant.
And go get thee in to them of the captivity, to the children of thy people, and thou shalt speak to them, and shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord: If so be they will hear, and will forbear.
Et vade, ingredior ad transmigratione, ad filios de populo tuo, et loque ad illos: et dic ad illos: Domino Deo dic hoc: si forte audi et quiesce.
12Et assumpsit me spiritus, et audivi post me vocem commotionis magnæ: Benedicta gloria Domini de loco suo:
And the spirit took me up, and I heard behind me the voice of a great commotion, saying: Blessed be the glory of the Lord, from his place.
Et spiritu assume me, et audi post me voce de commotione magna: menedica gloria de Domino de loco suo:
13et vocem alarum animalium percutientium alteram ad alteram, et vocem rotarum sequentium animalia, et vocem commotionis magnæ.
The noise of the wings of the living creatures striking one against another, and the noise of the wheels following the living creatures, and the noise of a great commotion.
Et voce de alas de animales percute altero ad altero, et voce de rotas seque animales, et voce de commotione magna.
14Spiritus quoque levavit me, et assumpsit me: et abii amarus in indignatione spiritus mei: manus enim Domini erat mecum, confortans me.
The spirit also lifted me, and took me up: and I went away in bitterness in the indignation of my spirit: for the hand of the Lord was with me, strengthening me.
Spiritu etiam leva me, et assume me: et i ab amaro in indignatione de spiritu meo: manu nam de Domino es mecum, conforta me.
15Et veni ad transmigrationem, ad acervum novarum frugum, ad eos qui habitabant juxta flumen Chobar: et sedi ubi illi sedebant, et mansi ibi septem diebus mœrens in medio eorum.
And I came to them of the captivity, to the heap of new corn, to them that dwelt by the river Chobar, and I sat where they sat: and I remained there seven days mourning in the midst of them.
Et veni ad transmigratione, ad acervo novo de fruges, ad illos qui habita juxta flumine Chobare: et ad sede ubi illo sede, et mane ibi septeme die moere in medio de illos.
16Cum autem pertransissent septem dies, factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
And at the end of seven days the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Cum autem septeme die pertransi, facto es verbo de Domino ad me, dicente:
17Fili hominis, speculatorem dedi te domui Israël, et audies de ore meo verbum, et annuntiabis eis ex me.
Son of man, I have made thee a watchman to the house of Israel: and thou shalt hear the word out of my mouth, and shalt tell it them from me.
Filio de homine, speculatore da te ad domo Israële, et audi de ore meo verbo, et annuntia ad illos ex me.
18Si, dicente me ad impium: Morte morieris, non annuntiaveris ei, neque locutus fueris ut avertatur a via sua impia et vivat, ipse impius in iniquitate sua morietur, sanguinem autem ejus de manu tua requiram.
If, when I say to the wicked, Thou shalt surely die: thou declare it not to him, nor speak to him, that he may be converted from his wicked way, and live: the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but I will require his blood at thy hand.
Si, dic me ad impio: morte more, non annuntia ad illo, neque locuto es ut averte ab via suo impio et vive, ipso impio in iniquitate suo more, sanguine autem de illo de manu tuo require.
19Si autem tu annuntiaveris impio, et ille non fuerit conversus ab impietate sua et a via sua impia, ipse quidem in iniquitate sua morietur: tu autem animam tuam liberasti.
But if thou give warning to the wicked, and he be not converted from his wickedness, and from his evil way: he indeed shall die in his iniquity, but thou hast delivered thy soul.
Si autem te annuntia impio, et illo non es converte ab impietate suo et ab via suo impio, ipso quidem in iniquitate suo more: te autem libera anima tuo.
20Sed et si conversus justus a justitia sua fuerit, et fecerit iniquitatem, ponam offendiculum coram eo: ipse morietur quia non annuntiasti ei. In peccato suo morietur, et non erunt in memoria justitiæ ejus quas fecit: sanguinem vero ejus de manu tua requiram.
Moreover if the just man shall turn away from his justice, and shall commit iniquity: I will lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die, because thou hast not given him warning: he shall die in his sin, and his justices which he hath done, shall not be remembered: but I will require his blood at thy hand.
Sed et si converte iusto ab iustitia suo es, et fac iniquitate, pone offendiculo coram eo: ipso more quia non annuntia ad illo. In peccato suo more, et non es in memoria de iustitia de illo que fac: sanguine vero de illo de manu tuo require.
21Si autem tu annuntiaveris justo ut non peccet justus, et ille non peccaverit, vivens vivet, quia annuntiasti ei, et tu animam tuam liberasti.
But if thou warn the just man, that the just may not sin, and he doth not sin: living he shall live, because thou hast warned him, and thou hast delivered thy soul.
Si autem te annuntia iusto ut non iusto pecca, et illo non pecca, vivente vive, quia annuntia ad illo, et te libera anima tuo.
22Et facta est super me manus Domini, et dixit ad me: Surgens egredere in campum, et ibi loquar tecum.
And the hand of the Lord was upon me, and he said to me: Rise and go forth into the plain, and there I will speak to thee.
Et facto es super me manu de Domino, et dic ad me: surgente egredior in campo, et ibi loque tecum.
23Et surgens egressus sum in campum: et ecce ibi gloria Domini stabat, quasi gloria quam vidi juxta fluvium Chobar: et cecidi in faciem meam.
And I rose up, and went forth into the plain: and behold the glory of the Lord stood there, like the glory which I saw by the river Chobar: and I fell upon my face.
Et surge egredior es in campo: et ecce ibi gloria de Domino sta, quasi gloria quam vide juxta fluvio Chobare: et caede in facie meo.
24Et ingressus est in me spiritus, et statuit me super pedes meos, et locutus est mihi, et dixit ad me: Ingredere, et includere in medio domus tuæ.
And the spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet: and he spoke to me, and said to me: Go in; and shut thyself up in the midst of thy house.
Et ingredior es in me spiritu, et statue me super pedes meo, et locuto es ad me, et dic ad me: ingredior, et include in medio de domo tuo.
25Et tu, fili hominis, ecce data sunt super te vincula, et ligabunt te in eis, et non egredieris de medio eorum.
And thou, O son of man, behold they shall put bands upon thee, and they shall bind thee with them: and thou shalt not go forth from the midst of them.
Et te, filio de homine, ecce da es super te vinculos, et ligo te in illos, et non egredior de medio de illos.
26Et linguam tuam adhærere faciam palato tuo, et eris mutus, nec quasi vir objurgans, quia domus exasperans est.
And I will make thy tongue stick fast to the roof of thy mouth, and thou shalt be dumb, and not as a man that reproveth: because they are a provoking house.
Et lingua tuo adhaere fac ad palato tuo, et es muto, nec quasi viro obiurga, quia domo exaspera es.
27Cum autem locutus fuero tibi, aperiam os tuum, et dices ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Qui audit, audiat, et qui quiescit, quiescat: quia domus exasperans est.
But when I shall speak to thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: He that heareth, let him hear: and he that forbeareth, let him forbear: for they are a provoking house.
Cum autem locuto es ad te, aperi ore tuo, et dic ad illos: hoc dic Domino Deo: qui audi, audi, et qui quiesce, quiesce: quia domo exaspera es.
