Ezekiel 3

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	Peshitta
1 And he said to me, "Son of man, eat what is offered to you; eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel."	1 ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܡܫܟܚ ܐܢܬ ܐܟܘܠ ܐܟܘܠܝܗܝ ܠܟܪܟܐ ܗܢܐ ܘܙܠ ܡܠܠ ܥܡ ܕܒܝܬ ܐܝܣܪܐܝܠ
2 So I opened my mouth, and he gave me the scroll to eat.	2 ܘܦܬܚ̇ܬ ܦܘܡܝ ܘܐܘܟܠܢܝ ܟܪܟܐ ܗ̇ܘ
3 And he said to me, "Son of man, eat this scroll that I give you and fill your stomach with it." Then I ate it; and it was in my mouth as sweet as honey.	3 ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܡܠܝ ܟܪܣܟ ܘܡ̈ܥܝܟ ܡܢ ܟܪܟܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܝܗ̇ܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܘܐܟ̇ܠܬܗ ܘܗܘܐ ܒܦܘܡܝ ܐܝܟ ܕܒܫܐ ܚܠܝܐ
4 And he said to me, "Son of man, go, get you to the house of Israel, and speak with my words to them.	4 ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܙܠ ܥܘܠ ܠܫܒܝܬܐ ܠܘܬ ܒܢ̈ܝ ܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܦܬ̈ܓܡܝ
5 For you are not sent to a people of foreign speech and a hard language, but to the house of Israel--	5 ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܥܠ ܥܡܐ ܥܡܝܩ ܡܡܠܠܐ ܘܠܥܓ ܠܫܢܐ ܫܕܪܬܟ ܥܠ ܕܒܝܬ ܐܝܣܪܐܝܠ
6 not to many peoples of foreign speech and a hard language, whose words you cannot understand. Surely, if I sent you to such, they would listen to you.	6 ܘܐܦ ܠܐ ܥܠ ܥܡ̈ܡܐ ܣܓܝܐ̈ܐ ܕܠܐ ܫܡ̇ܥ ܐܢܬ ܡܡܠܠܗܘܢ ܘܐܠܘ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܫܕܪܬܟ ܫܡ̇ܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܟ
7 But the house of Israel will not listen to you; for they are not willing to listen to me; because all the house of Israel are of a hard forehead and of a stubborn heart.	7 ܕܒܝܬ ܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܫܡ̇ܥܝܢ ܠܟ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܨ̇ܒܝܢ ܠܡܫܡܥܢܝ ܕܟܠܗ ܓܝܪ ܒܝܬ ܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܥܫܝܢ ܒܝܬ ܥܝܢ̈ܝܗܘܢ ܘܩܫܐ ܠܒܗܘܢ
8 Behold, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your forehead hard against their foreheads.	8 ܗܐ ܐܥܫ̇ܢܬ ܐ̈ܦܝܟ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܐ̈ܦܝܗܘܢ ܘܒܝܬ ܥܝܢ̈ܝܟ ܐ̇ܫܪܬ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܒܝܬ ܥܝܢ̈ܝܗܘܢ
9 Like adamant harder than flint have I made your forehead; fear them not, nor be dismayed at their looks, for they are a rebellious house."	9 ܐܝܟ ܫܡܝܪܐ ܕܥܫܝܢ ܡܢ ܛܪܢܐ ܥܒ̇ܕܬ ܒܝܬ ܥܝܢ̈ܝܟ ܠܐ ܬܕܚܠ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܬܙܘܥ ܡܢ ܩܕܡܝܗܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܒܝܬܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܡܪܡܪܢܐ
10 Moreover he said to me, "Son of man, all my words that I shall speak to you receive in your heart, and hear with your ears.	10 ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܟܠ ܦܬ̈ܓܡܝ ܕܐܡ̇ܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܩܒ̇ܠ ܒܠܒܟ ܘܫܡܥ ܒܐ̈ܕܢܝܟ
11 And go, get you to the exiles, to your people, and say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD'; whether they hear or refuse to hear."	11 ܘܙܠ ܥܘܠ ܠܫܒܝܬܐ ܠܘܬ ܒܢ̈ܝ ܥܡܟ ܘܡܠܠ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܗܟܢܐ ܐܡ̇ܪ ܡܪܐ ܡܪ̈ܘܬܐ ܟܒܪ ܢܫܡܥܘܢ ܘܢܙܘܥܘܢ
12 Then the Spirit lifted me up, and as the glory of the LORD arose from its place, I heard behind me the sound of a great earthquake;	12 ܘܫܩܠܬܢܝ ܪܘܚܐ ܘܫܡ̇ܥܬ ܒܬܪܝ ܩܠܐ ܕܙܘܥܐ ܪܒܐ ܕܐܡ̇ܪ ܒܪܝܟ ܗܘ ܐܝܩܪܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܡܢ ܐܬܪܗ
13 it was the sound of the wings of the living creatures as they touched one another, and the sound of the wheels beside them, that sounded like a great earthquake.	13 ܘܩܠܐ ܕܓܦ̈ܐ ܕܚ̈ܝܘܬܐ ܕܛ̇ܪܦܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܘܩܠܐ ܕܓܝ̈ܓܠܐ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܘܩܠܐ ܕܙܘܥܐ ܪܒܐ
14 The Spirit lifted me up and took me away, and I went in bitterness in the heat of my spirit, the hand of the LORD being strong upon me;	14 ܘܫܩܠܬܢܝ ܪܘܚܐ ܘܐܘܒܠܬܢܝ ܘܐ̇ܙܠܬ ܒܚܐܦܐ ܕܪܘܚܝ ܘܐܝܕܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܥܫܢܬ ܥܠܝ
15 and I came to the exiles at Tel-abib, who dwelt by the river Chebar. And I sat there overwhelmed among them seven days.	15 ܘܥ̇ܠܬ ܠܫܒܝܬܐ ܠܬܠܐܟܝܒ ܕܝܬ̇ܒ ܥܠ ܢܗܪܟܒܪ ܘܝܬܒ̇ܬ ܬܡܢ ܫܒܥܐ ܝܘܡ̈ܝܢ ܟܕ ܬܡܝܗ ܐܢܐ ܒܝܢܬܗܘܢ
16 And at the end of seven days, the word of the LORD came to me:	16 ܘܡܢ ܒܬܪ ܫܒܥܐ ܝܘܡ̈ܝܢ ܗܘܐ ܥܠܝ ܦܬܓܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܠܡܐܡܪ
17 "Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me.	17 ܒܪܢܫܐ ܕܘܩܐ ܝܗ̇ܒܬܟ ܠܕܒܝܬ ܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܕܬܗܘܐ ܫܡ̇ܥ ܡܢ ܦܘܡܝ ܦܬ̈ܓܡܐ ܘܬܙܗܪ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢܝ
18 If I say to the wicked, 'You shall surely die,' and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, in order to save his life, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at your hand.	18 ܡܐ ܕܐܡ̇ܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܚܛܝܐ ܕܡܡܬ ܬܡܘܬ ܘܠܐ ܙܗܪܬܝܗܝ ܘܠܐ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܗ ܠܚܛܝܐ ܕܢܙܕܗܪ ܡܢ ܐܘܪܚܗ ܘܢܚܐ ܗ̇ܘ ܚܛܝܐ ܒܥܘ̣ܠܗ ܢܡܘܬ ܘܕܡܗ ܡܢ ܐ̈ܝܕܝܟ ܐܬܒܥ
19 But if you warn the wicked, and he does not turn from his wickedness, or from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you will have saved your life.	19 ܐܢ ܬܙܗܪ ܕܝܢ ܠܚܛܝܐ ܘܠܐ ܢܗܦܘܟ ܡܢ ܚܛܝܬܗ ܘܡܢ ܐܘܪܚܗ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܗܘ ܒܚ̈ܛܗܘܗܝ ܢܡܘܬ ܘܐܢܬ ܢܦܫܟ ܬܦܨܐ
20 Again, if a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die; because you have not warned him, he shall die for his sin, and his righteous deeds which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood I will require at your hand.	20 ܘܟܕ ܙܕܝܩܐ ܢܗܦܘܟ ܡܢ ܙܕܝܩܘܬܗ ܘܢܥܒܕ ܥܘ̣ܠܐ ܐܬܠ ܬܘܩܠܬܐ ܩܕܡܘܗܝ ܘܢܡܘܬ ܥܠ ܕܠܐ ܙܗܪܬܝܗܝ ܒܚ̈ܛܗܘܗܝ ܢܡܘܬ ܘܠܐ ܬܬܕܟܪ ܠܗ ܙܕܝܩܘܬܗ ܕܥܒܕ ܘܕܡܗ ܡܢ ܐ̈ܝܕܝܟ ܐܬܒܥ
21 Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man not to sin, and he does not sin, he shall surely live, because he took warning; and you will have saved your life."	21 ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܬܙܗܪ ܠܙܕܝܩܐ ܕܠܐ ܢܚܛܐ ܘܠܐ ܚܛܐ ܙܕܝܩܐ ܢܚܐ ܕܐܙܕܗܪ ܘܐܢܬ ܢܦܫܟ ܬܦܨܐ
22 And the hand of the LORD was there upon me; and he said to me, "Arise, go forth into the plain, and there I will speak with you."	22 ܘܗܘܬ ܥܠܝ ܬܡܢ ܐܝܕܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܩܘܡ ܦܘܩ ܠܦܩܥܬܐ ܘܬܡܢ ܐܡܠܠ ܥܡܟ
23 So I arose and went forth into the plain; and, lo, the glory of the LORD stood there, like the glory which I had seen by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.	23 ܘܩ̇ܡܬ ܢܦܩ̇ܬ ܠܦܩܥܬܐ ܘܬܡܢ ܩܐ̇ܡ ܗܘܐ ܫܘܒܚܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܝܣܪܝܠ ܐܝܟ ܫܘܒܚܐ ܕܚ̇ܙܝܬ ܥܠ ܢܗܪܟܒܪ ܘܢܦܠ̇ܬ ܥܠ ܐ̈ܦܝ
24 But the Spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet; and he spoke with me and said to me, "Go, shut yourself within your house.	24 ܘܥܠܬ ܒܝ ܪܘܚܐ ܘܐܩܝܡܬܢܝ ܥܠ ܪ̈ܓܠܝ ܘܡܠܠ ܥܡܝ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܥܘܠ ܐܬܚܒܫ ܒܒܝܬܟ
25 And you, O son of man, behold, cords will be placed upon you, and you shall be bound with them, so that you cannot go out among the people;	25 ܘܐܢܬ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܗܐ ܪܡ̇ܝܢ ܥܠܝܟ ܫܫ̈ܠܬܐ ܘܐܣ̇ܪܝܢ ܠܟ ܒܗܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܬܦܘܩ ܒܝܢܬܗܘܢ
26 and I will make your tongue cleave to the roof of your mouth, so that you shall be dumb and unable to reprove them; for they are a rebellious house.	26 ܘܠܫܢܟ ܐܕܒܩ ܠܫܡܝ ܚܟܟ ܘܬܚܪܫ ܘܠܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܡܟܣܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܒܝܬܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܡܪܡܪܢܐ
27 But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD'; he that will hear, let him hear; and he that will refuse to hear, let him refuse; for they are a rebellious house.	27 ܘܡܐ ܕܡܡܠܠ ܐܢܐ ܥܡܟ ܦܬ̇ܚ ܐܢܐ ܦܘܡܟ ܕܬܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܗܟܢܐ ܐܡ̇ܪ ܡܪܐ ܡܪ̈ܘܬܐ ܕܫܡ̇ܥ ܢܫܡܥ ܘܕܙܐ̇ܥ ܢܙܘܥ ܡܛܠ ܕܒܝܬܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܡܪܡܪܢܐ
