< Ezekiel 4 >

1 “You also, son of man, take a tile, and lay it before yourself, and portray on it a city, even Jerusalem.
et tu fili hominis sume tibi laterem et pones eum coram te et describes in eo civitatem Hierusalem
2 Lay siege against it, build forts against it, and cast up a mound against it. Also set camps against it and plant battering rams against it all around.
et ordinabis adversus eam obsidionem et aedificabis munitiones et conportabis aggerem et dabis contra eam castra et pones arietes in gyro
3 Take for yourself an iron pan and set it for a wall of iron between you and the city. Then set your face toward it. It will be besieged, and you shall lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.
et tu sume tibi sartaginem ferream et pones eam murum ferreum inter te et inter civitatem et obfirmabis faciem tuam ad eam et erit in obsidionem et circumdabis eam signum est domui Israhel
4 “Moreover lie on your left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel on it. According to the number of the days that you shall lie on it, you shall bear their iniquity.
et tu dormies super latus tuum sinistrum et pones iniquitates domus Israhel super eo numero dierum quibus dormies super illud et adsumes iniquitatem eorum
5 For I have appointed the years of their iniquity to be to you a number of days, even three hundred ninety days. So you shall bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
ego autem dedi tibi annos iniquitatis eorum numero dierum trecentos et nonaginta dies et portabis iniquitatem domus Israhel
6 “Again, when you have accomplished these, you shall lie on your right side, and shall bear the iniquity of the house of Judah. I have appointed forty days, each day for a year, to you.
et cum conpleveris haec dormies super latus tuum dextrum secundo et adsumes iniquitatem domus Iuda quadraginta diebus diem pro anno diem inquam pro anno dedi tibi
7 You shall set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with your arm uncovered; and you shall prophesy against it.
et ad obsidionem Hierusalem convertes faciem tuam et brachium tuum erit exertum et prophetabis adversus eam
8 Behold, I put ropes on you, and you shall not turn yourself from one side to the other, until you have accomplished the days of your siege.
ecce circumdedi te vinculis et non te convertes a latere tuo in latus aliud donec conpleas dies obsidionis tuae
9 “Take for yourself also wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel. Make bread of it. According to the number of the days that you will lie on your side, even three hundred ninety days, you shall eat of it.
et tu sume tibi frumentum et hordeum et fabam et lentem et milium et viciam et mittes ea in vas unum et facies tibi panes numero dierum quibus dormies super latus tuum trecentis et nonaginta diebus comedes illud
10 Your food which you shall eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day. From time to time you shall eat it.
cibus autem tuus quo vesceris erit in pondere viginti stateres in die a tempore usque ad tempus comedes illud
11 You shall drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin. From time to time you shall drink.
et aquam in mensura bibes sextam partem hin a tempore usque ad tempus bibes illud
12 You shall eat it as barley cakes, and you shall bake it in their sight with dung that comes out of man.”
et quasi subcinericium hordiacium comedes illud et stercore quod egredietur de homine operies illud in oculis eorum
13 The LORD said, “Even thus will the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations where I will drive them.”
et dixit Dominus sic comedent filii Israhel panem suum pollutum inter gentes ad quas eiciam eos
14 Then I said, “Ah Lord GOD! Behold, my soul has not been polluted; for from my youth up even until now I have not eaten of that which dies of itself, or is torn of animals. No abominable meat has come into my mouth!”
et dixi ha ha ha Domine Deus ecce anima mea non est polluta et morticinum et laceratum a bestiis non comedi ab infantia mea usque nunc et non est ingressa os meum omnis caro inmunda
15 Then he said to me, “Behold, I have given you cow’s dung for man’s dung, and you shall prepare your bread on it.”
et dixit ad me ecce dedi tibi fimum boum pro stercoribus humanis et facies panem tuum in eo
16 Moreover he said to me, “Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem. They will eat bread by weight, and with fearfulness. They will drink water by measure, and in dismay;
et dixit ad me fili hominis ecce ego conteram baculum panis in Hierusalem et comedent panem in pondere et in sollicitudine et aquam in mensura et in angustia bibent
17 that they may lack bread and water, be dismayed one with another, and pine away in their iniquity.
ut deficientibus pane et aqua corruat unusquisque ad fratrem suum et contabescant in iniquitatibus suis
