17 “ Filihominis, domus Israel habitaverunt in humo sua et polluerunt eam in viis suis etin operibus suis; iuxta immunditiam menstruatae facta est via eorum coram me.	17 'Son of man, the members of the House of Israel used to live in their own territory, but they defiled itby their conduct and actions; to me their conduct was as unclean as a woman's menstruation.
18 Et effudi indignationem meam super eos pro sanguine, quem fuderunt super terram,et in idolis suis polluerunt eam.	18 I then vented my fury on them because of the blood they shed in the country and the foul idols withwhich they defiled it.
19 Et dispersi eos in gentes, et ventilatisunt in terras; iuxta vias eorum et iuxta opera eorum iudicavi eos.	19 I scattered them among the nations and they were dispersed throughout the countries. I sentencedthem as their conduct and actions deserved.
20 Etingressi sunt ad gentes, ad quas introierunt, et polluerunt nomen sanctum meum,cum diceretur de eis: “Populus Domini iste est, et de terra eius egressi sunt”.	20 They have profaned my holy name among the nations where they have gone, so that people say ofthem, "These are the people of Yahweh; they have been exiled from his land."
21 Et peperci nomini meo sancto, quod polluerat domus Israel in gentibus, adquas ingressi sunt.	21 But I have been concerned about my holy name, which the House of Israel has profaned among thenations where they have gone.
22 Idcirco dices domui Israel: Haec dicit Domihus Deus: Non propter vos egofaciam, domus Israel, sed propter nomen sanctum meum, quod polluistis ingentibus, ad quas intrastis;	22 And so, say to the House of Israel, "The Lord Yahweh says this: I am acting not for your sake, Houseof Israel, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations where you have gone.
23 et sanctificabo nomen meum magnum, quod pollutumest inter gentes, quod polluistis in medio earum, ut sciant gentes quia egoDominus, ait Dominus Deus, cum sanctificatus fuero in vobis coram eis.	23 I am going to display the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations,which you have profaned among them. And the nations will know that I am Yahweh -- declares the Lord Yahweh-- when in you I display my holiness before their eyes.
24 Tollamquippe vos de gentibus et congregabo vos de universis terris et adducam vos interram vestram;	24 For I shall take you from among the nations and gather you back from al the countries, and bring youhome to your own country.
25 et effundam super vos aquam mundam, et mundabimini ab omnibusinquinamentis vestris, et ab universis idolis vestris mundabo vos.	25 I shal pour clean water over you and you wil be cleansed; I shal cleanse you of all your filth and ofal your foul idols.

31 Et recordabimini viarum vestrarumpessimarum operumque non bonorum, et displicebunt vobis iniquitates vestrae etscelera vestra.	31 Then you wil remember your evil conduct and actions. You will loathe yourselves for your guilt andyour loathsome practices.
32 Non propter vos ego faciam, ait Dominus Deus, notum sitvobis; confundimini et erubescite super viis vestris, domus Israel.	32 I assure you that I am not doing this for your sake -- declares the Lord Yahweh. Be ashamed andblush for your conduct, House of Israel.
33 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: In die, qua mundavero vos ex omnibus iniquitatibusvestris et inhabitari fecero urbes et instauravero ruinosa,	33 "The Lord Yahweh says this: On the day I cleanse you from all your guilt, I shall repopulate the citiesand cause the ruins to be rebuilt.

35 dicent:“Terra illa inculta facta est ut hortus Eden, et civitates desertae etdestitutae atque destructae munitae inhabitantur”.	35 And people wil say: This land, so recently a waste, is now like a garden of Eden, and the ruinedcities once abandoned and levelled to the ground are now strongholds with people living in them.
36 Et scient gentes,quaecumque derelictae fuerint in circuitu vestro, quia ego Dominus aedificavidissipata plantavique inculta; ego Dominus locutus sum et facio.	36 And the nations left round you wil know that I, Yahweh, have rebuilt what was levelled and replantedwhat was ruined. I, Yahweh, have spoken and shall do it.
37 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Adhuc in hoc exorabor a domo Israel, ut faciam eis:multiplicabo eos sicut gregem hominum,	37 "The Lord Yahweh says this: As a further mark of favour, I shal let myself be consulted by the Houseof Israel; I shal increase their numbers like a human flock,
38 ut gregem sanctum, ut gregem Ierusalemin sollemnitatibus eius; sic erunt civitates desertae plenae gregibus hominum,et scient quia ego Dominus ”.	38 like a flock of sacrificial animals, like the flock in Jerusalem on her solemn feasts. So your ruinedcities will be fil ed with human flocks, and they wil know that I am Yahweh." '
