Ezechiele 3

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Et dixit ad me: “ Fili hominis, quodcumque inveneris, comede; comedevolumen istud et vadens loquere ad filios Israel ”.	1 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.
2 Et aperui os meum, etcibavit me volumine illo	2 And I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that book :
3 et dixit ad me: “ Fili hominis, venter tuuscomedet, et viscera tua complebuntur volumine isto, quod ego do tibi ”. Etcomedi illud, et factum est in ore meo sicut mel dulce.	3 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.
4 Et dixit ad me: “Fili hominis, vade ad domum Israel et loqueris verba mea ad eos.	4 And he said to me: Son of man, go to the house of Israel, and thou shalt speak my words to them.
5 Non enim adpopulum profundi sermonis et ignotae linguae tu mitteris, ad domum Israel;	5 For thou art not sent to a people of a profound speech, and of an unknown tongue, but to the house of Israel:
6 neque ad populos multos profundi sermonis et ignotae linguae, quorum non possisaudire sermones; et si ad illos mittereris, ipsi audirent te.	6 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.
7 Domus autemIsrael nolunt audire te, quia nolunt audire me; omnis quippe domus Israel durafronte est et obstinato corde.	7 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.
8 Ecce dedi faciem tuam valentiorem faciebuseorum et frontem tuam duriorem frontibus eorum;	8 Behold I have made thy face stronger than their faces: and thy forehead harder than their foreheads.
9 ut adamantem et durioremsilice dedi faciem tuam: ne timeas eos neque metuas a facie eorum, quia domusexasperans est ”.	9 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.
10 Et dixit ad me: “ Fili hominis, omnes sermones meos,quos loquor ad te, assume in corde tuo et auribus tuis audi.	10 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:
11 Et vade,ingredere ad transmigrationem, ad filios populi tui, et loqueris ad eos et diceseis: Haec dicit Dominus Deus; sive audiant, sive contemnant ”.	11 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.
12 Et assumpsit me spiritus, et audivi post me vocem commotionis magnae, cumelevaretur gloria Domini de loco suo;	12 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.
13 et vocem alarum animalium percutientiumalteram ad alteram et vocem rotarum sequentium animalia et vocem commotionismagnae.	13 And 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.
14 Spiritus quoque levavit me et assumpsit me; et abii amarus inindignatione spiritus mei: manus enim Domini erat super me gravis.	14 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.
15 Et veni adtransmigrationem, ad Telabib, ad eos, qui habitabant iuxta flumen Chobar; etsedi, ubi illi sedebant, et mansi ibi septem diebus obstupefactus in medioeorum.	15 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.
16 Cum autem pertransissent septem dies, factum est verbum Domini ad me dicens:	16 And at the end of seven days the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
17 “ Fili hominis, speculatorem dedi te domui Israel; et audies de ore meoverbum et commonebis eos ex me.	17 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.
18 Si, dicente me ad impium: Morte morieris, noncommonueris eum neque locutus fueris ei, ut avertatur a via sua impia et vivat,ipse impius in iniquitate sua morietur, sanguinem autem eius de manu tuarequiram.	18 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.
19 Si autem tu commonueris impium, et ille non fuerit conversus abimpietate sua et a via sua impia, ipse quidem in iniquitate sua morietur, tuautem animam tuam liberasti.	19 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.
20 Sed et si conversus iustus a iustitia sua,fecerit iniquitatem, ponam offendiculum coram eo; ipse morietur, quia noncommonuisti eum: in peccato suo morietur, et non erunt in memoria iustitiaeeius, quas fecit; sanguinem vero eius de manu tua requiram.	20 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.
21 Si autem tucommonueris iustum, ut non peccet iustus, et ille non peccaverit, vivens vivet,quia commonuisti eum et tu animam tuam liberasti ”.	21 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.
22 Et facta est super me manus Domini, et dixit ad me: “ Surgens egredere incampum, et ibi loquar tecum ”.	22 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.
23 Et surgens egressus sum in campum, et ecceibi gloria Domini stabat quasi gloria, quam vidi iuxta fluvium Chobar, et cecidiin faciem meam.	23 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.
24 Et ingressus est in me spiritus et statuit me super pedesmeos et locutus est mihi et dixit ad me: “ Ingredere et includere in mediodomus tuae.	24 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.
25 Et tu, fili hominis, ecce data sunt super te vincula, et ligabuntte in eis, et non egredieris in medio eorum;	25 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.
26 et linguam tuam adhaerere faciampalato tuo, et eris mutus nec quasi vir obiurgans, quia domus exasperans est.	26 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.
27 Cum autem locutus fuero tibi, aperiam os tuum, et dices ad eos: Haec dicitDominus Deus. Qui audit, audiat; et, qui contemnit, contemnat, quia domusexasperans est ”.	27 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.
