Ezekiel 12

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 Thus the word of the LORD came to me:	1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens:
2 Son of man, you live in the midst of a rebellious house; they have eyes to see but do not see, and ears to hear but do not hear, for they are a rebellious house.	2 “ Fili hominis, in mediodomus exasperantis tu habitas, qui oculos habent ad videndum et non vident, etaures ad audiendum et non audiunt, quia domus exasperans est.
3 Now, son of man, during the day while they are looking on, prepare your baggage as though for exile, and again while they are looking on, migrate from where you live to another place; perhaps they will see that they are a rebellious house.	3 Tu ergo, filihominis, fac tibi vasa transmigrationis et transmigrabis per diem coram eis;transmigrabis autem de loco tuo ad locum alterum in conspectu eorum, si forteaspiciant, quia domus exasperans est.
4 You shall bring out your baggage like an exile in the daytime while they are looking on; in the evening, again while they are looking on, you shall go out like one of those driven into exile;	4 Et efferes foras vasa tua quasi vasatransmigrantis per diem in conspectu eorum; tu autem egredieris vespere corameis, sicut egreditur migrans.
5 while they look on, dig a hole in the wall and pass through it;	5 Ante oculos eorum perfode tibi parietem etefferes per eum;
6 while they look on, shoulder the burden and set out in the darkness; cover your face that you may not see the land, for I have made you a sign for the house of Israel.	6 in conspectu eorum in umeris portabis, in caligine efferes:faciem tuam velabis et non videbis terram, quia portentum dedi te domui Israel”.
7 I did as I was told. During the day I brought out my baggage as though it were that of an exile, and at evening I dug a hole through the wall with my hand and, while they looked on, set out in the darkness, shouldering my burden.	7 Feci ergo, sicut praeceperat mihi Dominus: vasa mea protuli quasi vasatransmigrantis per diem et vespere perfodi mihi parietem manu; et in caligineextuli in umeris portans in conspectu eorum.
8 Then, in the morning, the word of the LORD came to me:	8 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me mane dicens:
9 Son of man, did not the house of Israel, that rebellious house, ask you what you were doing?	9 “ Fili hominis, numquid nondixerunt ad te domus Israel, domus exasperans: “Quid tu facis?”.
10 Tell them: Thus says the Lord GOD: This oracle concerns Jerusalem and the whole house of Israel within it.	10 Dic adeos: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Super ducem onus istud, qui est in Ierusalem, etsuper omnem domum Israel, quae est in medio eius.
11 I am a sign for you: as I have done, so shall it be done to them; as captives they shall go into exile.	11 Dic: Ego portentum vestrum.Quomodo feci, sic fiet illis: in transmigrationem et in captivitatem ibunt.
12 The prince who is among them shall shoulder his burden and set out in darkness, going through a hole that he has dug in the wall, and covering his face lest he be seen by anyone.	12 Et dux, qui est in medio eorum, in umeris portabit, in caligine, et egredietur;parietem perfodient, ut transitus fiat per eum; faciem suam operiet, ut nonvideat oculo terram.
13 But I will spread my net over him, and he shall be taken in my snare. I will bring him to Babylon, into the land of the Chaldeans--but he shall not see it--and there he shall die.	13 Et extendam rete meum super illum, et capietur intendicula mea; et adducam eum in Babylonem in terram Chaldaeorum, et ipsam nonvidebit ibique morietur.
14 All his retinue, his aides, and his troops I will scatter in every direction, and pursue them with the sword.	14 Et omnes, qui circa eum sunt, praesidium eius etagmina eius, dispergam in omnem ventum; et gladium evaginabo post eos.
15 Then shall they know that I am the LORD, when I disperse them among the nations and scatter them over foreign lands.	15 Etscient quia ego Dominus, quando dispersero illos in gentibus et disseminaveroeos in terris.
16 Yet I will leave a few of them to escape the sword, famine and pestilence, so that they may tell of all their abominations among the nations to which they will come; thus they shall know that I am the LORD.	16 Et relinquam ex eis viros paucos a gladio et fame etpestilentia, ut narrent omnia scelera eorum in gentibus, ad quas ingredientur,et scient quia ego Dominus ”.
17 Thus the word of the LORD came to me:	17 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens:
18 Son of man, eat your bread trembling, and drink your water shaking with anxiety.	18 “ Fili hominis, panem tuum inconturbatione comede; sed et aquam tuam in trepidatione et sollicitudine bibe.
19 Then say to the people of the land: Thus says the Lord GOD of the inhabitants of Jerusalem (to the land of Israel): They shall eat their bread in anxiety and drink their water in horror, that their land may be emptied of the violence of all its inhabitants that now fills it.	19 Et dices ad populum terrae: Haec dicit Dominus Deus ad eos, qui habitant inIerusalem in terra Israel: Panem suum in sollicitudine comedent et aquam suam indesolatione bibent, quia desolabitur terra a plenitudine sua propter violentiamomnium, qui habitant in ea;
20 Inhabited cities shall be in ruins, and the land shall be a waste; thus you shall know that I am the LORD.	20 et civitates, quae nunc habitantur, desolataeerunt, terraque deserta, et scietis quia ego Dominus ”.
21 Thus the word of the LORD came to me:	21 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens:
22 Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel: "The days drag on, and no vision ever comes to anything"?	22 “ Fili hominis, quod estproverbium istud vobis in terra Israel dicentibus: “In longum differenturdies, et peribit omnis visio”?
23 Say to them therefore: Thus says the Lord GOD: I will put an end to this proverb; they shall never quote it again in Israel. Rather, say to them: The days are at hand, and also the fulfillment of every vision.	23 Ideo dic ad eos: Haec dicit Dominus Deus:Quiescere faciam proverbium istud, neque vulgo dicetur ultra in Israel; etloquere ad eos quod appropinquaverint dies et sermo omnis visionis.
24 There shall no longer be any false visions or deceitful divinations within the house of Israel, because it is I, the LORD, who will speak.	24 Non enimerit ultra omnis visio vana neque divinatio ambigua in medio filiorum Israel,
25 Whatever I speak is final, and it shall be done without further delay. In your days, rebellious house, whatever I speak I will bring about, says the Lord GOD.	25 quia ego Dominus loquar; quodcumque locutus fuero verbum, et fiet: nonprolongabitur amplius, sed in diebus vestris, domus exasperans, loquar verbum etfaciam illud ”, dicit Dominus Deus.
26 Thus the word of the LORD came to me:	26 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens:
27 Son of man, listen to the house of Israel saying, "The vision he sees is a long way off; he prophesies of the distant future!"	27 “ Fili hominis, ecce domusIsrael dicentium: “Visio, quam hic videt, in dies multos et in tempora longaiste prophetat”;
28 Say to them therefore: Thus says the Lord GOD: None of my words shall be delayed any longer; whatever I speak is final, and it shall be done, says the Lord GOD.	28 propterea dic ad eos: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Nondifferetur ultra omnis sermo meus; verbum, quod locutus fuero, complebitur ”,dicit Dominus Deus.
