| 1 καὶ ἀνέλαβέν με πνεῦμα καὶ ἤγαγέν με ἐπὶ τὴν πύλην τοῦ οἴκου κυρίου τὴν κατέναντι τὴν βλέπουσαν κατὰ ἀνατολάς καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐπὶ τῶν προθύρων τῆς πύλης ὡς εἴκοσι καὶ πέντε ἄνδρες καὶ εἶδον ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν τὸν Ιεζονιαν τὸν τοῦ Εζερ καὶ Φαλτιαν τὸν τοῦ Βαναιου τοὺς ἀφηγουμένους τοῦ λαοῦ 2 καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρός με υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου οὗτοι οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ λογιζόμενοι μάταια καὶ βουλευόμενοι βουλὴν πονηρὰν ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ 3 οἱ λέγοντες οὐχὶ προσφάτως ᾠκοδόμηνται αἱ οἰκίαι αὕτη ἐστὶν ὁ λέβης ἡμεῖς δὲ τὰ κρέα 4 διὰ τοῦτο προφήτευσον ἐ{P'} αὐτούς προφήτευσον υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου | 1 Thereupon a transport seized me, carrying me off to the gate of the temple that looks eastward; and here were twenty-five men at the gate’s threshold, with two nobles, Jezonias son of Azur and Pheltias son of Benaias, plain to be seen among them. 2 Son of man, the divine voice said to me, here are folk that plot mischief, and give the city ruinous counsel. 3 What, say they, have we not houses here newly built? We may lie as snug here as meat in a cooking-pot.[1] 4 Tell them of their doom, son of man, tell them of their doom. | 1 Et elevavit me spiritus, et introduxit me ad portam domus Domini orientalem, quæ respicit ad solis ortum: et ecce in introitu portæ viginti quinque viri: et vidi in medio eorum Jezoniam filium Azur, et Pheltiam filium Banaiæ, principes populi. 2 Dixitque ad me: Fili hominis, hi sunt viri qui cogitant iniquitatem, et tractant consilium pessimum in urbe ista, 3 dicentes: Nonne dudum ædificatæ sunt domus? hæc est lebes, nos autem carnes. 4 Idcirco vaticinare de eis, vaticinare, fili hominis. |
| 5 καὶ ἔπεσεν ἐ{P'} ἐμὲ πνεῦμα κυρίου καὶ εἶπεν πρός με λέγε τάδε λέγει κύριος οὕτως εἴπατε οἶκος Ισραηλ καὶ τὰ διαβούλια τοῦ πνεύματος ὑμῶν ἐγὼ ἐπίσταμαι 6 ἐπληθύνατε νεκροὺς ὑμῶν ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ καὶ ἐνεπλήσατε τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῆς τραυματιῶν 7 διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει κύριος τοὺς νεκροὺς ὑμῶν οὓς ἐπατάξατε ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς οὗτοί εἰσιν τὰ κρέα αὐτὴ δὲ ὁ λέβης ἐστίν καὶ ὑμᾶς ἐξάξω ἐκ μέσου αὐτῆς 8 ῥομφαίαν φοβεῖσθε καὶ ῥομφαίαν ἐπάξω ἐ{F'} ὑμᾶς λέγει κύριος 9 καὶ ἐξάξω ὑμᾶς ἐκ μέσου αὐτῆς καὶ παραδώσω ὑμᾶς εἰς χεῖρας ἀλλοτρίων καὶ ποιήσω ἐν ὑμῖν κρίματα 10 ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ πεσεῖσθε ἐπὶ τῶν ὁρίων τοῦ Ισραηλ κρινῶ ὑμᾶς καὶ ἐπιγνώσεσθε ὅτι ἐγὼ κύριος 11 αὐτὴ ὑμῖν οὐκ ἔσται εἰς λέβητα καὶ ὑμεῖς οὐ μὴ γένησθε ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς εἰς κρέα ἐπὶ τῶν ὁρίων τοῦ Ισραηλ κρινῶ ὑμᾶς 12 καὶ ἐπιγνώσεσθε διότι ἐγὼ κύριος | 5 With that, the spirit of the Lord came full upon me, and bade me speak. This message I gave them from the Lord of hosts, These are your own words, men of Israel; can I not read your hearts? 6 So many done to death in this city, you have filled all the streets of it with bodies of the slain! 7 You have peopled it with the dead, says the Lord God; their flesh it is shall line yonder cooking-pot; as for you, I will fetch you out of it. 8 The sword it is you dread, and to the sword I doom you, the Lord God says; 9 out of it you shall come, and fall into the enemy’s hands, and be punished as you deserve. 10 Doomed to fall by the sword, up and down the countryside of Israel; then you shall learn what manner of God the Lord is! 11 Cooking-pot is none here to shelter you; up and down the country-side you shall meet your sentence, 12 and learn what manner of God it is whose paths you have left untrodden, whose will you have disobeyed, to follow the ill customs of your neighbours! | 5 Et irruit in me spiritus Domini, et dixit ad me: Loquere: Hæc dicit Dominus: Sic locuti estis, domus Israël, et cogitationes cordis vestri ego novi. 6 Plurimos occidistis in urbe hac, et implestis vias ejus interfectis. 7 Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Interfecti vestri, quos posuistis in medio ejus, hi sunt carnes, et hæc est lebes: et educam vos de medio ejus. 8 Gladium metuistis, et gladium inducam super vos, ait Dominus Deus. 9 Et ejiciam vos de medio ejus, daboque vos in manu hostium, et faciam in vobis judicia. 10 Gladio cadetis: in finibus Israël judicabo vos, et scietis quia ego Dominus. 11 Hæc non erit vobis in lebetem, et vos non eritis in medio ejus in carnes: in finibus Israël judicabo vos, 12 et scietis quia ego Dominus: quia in præceptis meis non ambulastis, et judicia mea non fecistis, sed juxta judicia gentium quæ in circuitu vestro sunt estis operati. |
| 13 καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ προφητεύειν με καὶ Φαλτιας ὁ τοῦ Βαναιου ἀπέθανεν καὶ πίπτω ἐπὶ πρόσωπόν μου καὶ ἀνεβόησα φωνῇ μεγάλῃ καὶ εἶπα οἴμμοι οἴμμοι κύριε εἰς συντέλειαν σὺ ποιεῖς τοὺς καταλοίπους τοῦ Ισραηλ 14 καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων 15 υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου οἱ ἀδελφοί σου καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας σου καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἶκος τοῦ Ισραηλ συντετέλεσται οἷς εἶπαν αὐτοῖς οἱ κατοικοῦντες Ιερουσαλημ μακρὰν ἀπέχετε ἀπὸ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῖν δέδοται ἡ γῆ εἰς κληρονομίαν 16 διὰ τοῦτο εἰπόν τάδε λέγει κύριος ὅτι ἀπώσομαι αὐτοὺς εἰς τὰ ἔθνη καὶ διασκορπιῶ αὐτοὺς εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν καὶ ἔσομαι αὐτοῖς εἰς ἁγίασμα μικρὸν ἐν ταῖς χώραις οὗ ἂν εἰσέλθωσιν ἐκεῖ 17 διὰ τοῦτο εἰπόν τάδε λέγει κύριος καὶ εἰσδέξομαι αὐτοὺς ἐκ τῶν ἐθνῶν καὶ συνάξω αὐτοὺς ἐκ τῶν χωρῶν οὗ διέσπειρα αὐτοὺς ἐν αὐταῖς καὶ δώσω αὐτοῖς τὴν γῆν τοῦ Ισραηλ 18 καὶ εἰσελεύσονται ἐκεῖ καὶ ἐξαροῦσιν πάντα τὰ βδελύγματα αὐτῆς καὶ πάσας τὰς ἀνομίας αὐτῆς ἐξ αὐτῆς 19 καὶ δώσω αὐτοῖς καρδίαν ἑτέραν καὶ πνεῦμα καινὸν δώσω ἐν αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐκσπάσω τὴν καρδίαν τὴν λιθίνην ἐκ τῆς σαρκὸς αὐτῶν καὶ δώσω αὐτοῖς καρδίαν σαρκίνην 20 ὅπως ἐν τοῖς προστάγμασίν μου πορεύωνται καὶ τὰ δικαιώματά μου φυλάσσωνται καὶ ποιῶσιν αὐτά καὶ ἔσονταί μοι εἰς λαόν καὶ ἐγὼ ἔσομαι αὐτοῖς εἰς θεόν 21 καὶ εἰς τὴν καρδίαν τῶν βδελυγμάτων αὐτῶν καὶ τῶν ἀνομιῶν αὐτῶν ὡς ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν ἐπορεύετο τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτῶν εἰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν δέδωκα λέγει κύριος | 13 So, in my vision, I prophesied, and while I was prophesying, Pheltias the son of Banaias sank down dead. Thereupon I fell face to earth, crying aloud, Alas, alas, Lord God, wilt thou take full toll of the remnant left to Israel? 14 But the Lord’s answer came to me: 15 Thou hast brethren, son of man, thou hast brethren still. They are nearest of kin to thee that are far away, exiled sons of Israel. What though these dwellers at Jerusalem cry, Keep your distance, the land is ours? 16 Not such is the message the Lord God sends them; Far away I have banished them, says he, widely scattered them; yet, go they where they will, a sanctuary in little they shall find in my companionship. 17 Tell them this, from the Lord God, Lost among the peoples, I will gather you, scattered over the world, I will muster you, and give you the land of Israel for your home. 18 To it they shall find their way, and rid it of all that is foul, all that is abominable there; 19 one mind they shall have, and a new spirit shall fill their inmost being; gone the heart of stone, and a human heart theirs in place of it. 20 My paths they shall tread, my will jealously obey, they my people, and I their God. 21 Only where men’s hearts are set on their own foul abominations, the Lord God says, they shall bear their punishment. | 13 Et factum est cum prophetarem, Pheltias filius Banaiæ mortuus est: et cecidi in faciem meam clamans voce magna, et dixi: Heu! heu! heu! Domine Deus, consummationem tu facis reliquiarum Israël? 14 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens: 15 Fili hominis, fratres tui, fratres tui, viri propinqui tui, et omnis domus Israël, universi quibus dixerunt habitatores Jerusalem: Longe recedite a Domino: nobis data est terra in possessionem. 16 Propterea hæc 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. 17 Propterea loquere: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Congregabo vos de populis, et adunabo de terris in quibus dispersi estis, daboque vobis humum Israël. 18 Et ingredientur illuc, et auferent omnes offensiones, cunctasque abominationes ejus de illa. 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, 20 ut in præceptis meis ambulent, et judicia mea custodiant, faciantque ea, et sint mihi in populum, et ego sim eis in Deum. 21 Quorum cor post offendicula et abominationes suas ambulat, horum viam in capite suo ponam, dicit Dominus Deus. |
| 22 καὶ ἐξῆραν τὰ χερουβιν τὰς πτέρυγας αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ τροχοὶ ἐχόμενοι αὐτῶν καὶ ἡ δόξα θεοῦ Ισραηλ ἐ{P'} αὐτὰ ὑπεράνω αὐτῶν 23 καὶ ἀνέβη ἡ δόξα κυρίου ἐκ μέσης τῆς πόλεως καὶ ἔστη ἐπὶ τοῦ ὄρους ὃ ἦν ἀπέναντι τῆς πόλεως 24 καὶ ἀνέλαβέν με πνεῦμα καὶ ἤγαγέν με εἰς γῆν Χαλδαίων εἰς τὴν αἰχμαλωσίαν ἐν ὁράσει ἐν πνεύματι θεοῦ καὶ ἀνέβην ἀπὸ τῆς ὁράσεως ἧς εἶδον 25 καὶ ἐλάλησα πρὸς τὴν αἰχμαλωσίαν πάντας τοὺς λόγους τοῦ κυρίου οὓς ἔδειξέν μοι | 22 And now the cherubim spread their wings for flight, the wheels beside them, the bright presence of the Lord above them; 23 and that presence, withdrawn from the city’s midst, came to rest upon the mountain height eastwards of it. 24 With that, a fresh transport seized me, and I was back among the exiles in Chaldaea, still in a trance, still full of the divine impulse. So the vision faded from my eyes, 25 and I told the exiles all the Lord had made known to me. | 22 Et elevaverunt cherubim alas suas, et rotæ cum eis, et gloria Dei Israël erat super ea: 23 et ascendit gloria Domini de medio civitatis, stetitque super montem qui est ad orientem urbis. 24 Et spiritus levavit me, adduxitque in Chaldæam ad transmigrationem, in visione, in spiritu Dei: et sublata est a me visio quam videram. 25 Et locutus sum ad transmigrationem omnia verba Domini quæ ostenderat mihi. |
[1] The attitude here condemned is perhaps that of the citizens who refused to surrender, trusting in the strength of their walls; cf. Jer. 21.9. For the metaphor of the cooking-pot, cf. 4.3 above.
