< Ezekiel 4 >

1 Thou also, son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it before thee, and portray upon it a city, even Jerusalem:
et tu fili hominis sume tibi laterem et pones eum coram te et describes in eo civitatem Hierusalem
2 and lay siege against it, and build forts against it, and cast up a mound against it; set camps also against it, and plant battering rams against it round about.
et ordinabis adversus eam obsidionem et aedificabis munitiones et conportabis aggerem et dabis contra eam castra et pones arietes in gyro
3 And take thou unto thee an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face toward it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt 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 thou upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it; [according to] the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it, thou shalt 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 unto thee a number of days, even three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou 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 And again, when thou hast accomplished these, thou shalt lie on thy right side, and shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah: forty days, each day for a year, have I appointed it unto thee.
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 And thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with thine arm uncovered; and thou shalt prophesy against it.
et ad obsidionem Hierusalem convertes faciem tuam et brachium tuum erit exertum et prophetabis adversus eam
8 And, behold, I lay bands upon thee, and thou shalt not turn thee from one side to the other, till thou hast accomplished the days of thy siege.
ecce circumdedi te vinculis et non te convertes a latere tuo in latus aliud donec conpleas dies obsidionis tuae
9 Take thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof; [according to] the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side, even three hundred and ninety days, shalt thou eat thereof.
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 And thy food which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shalt thou eat it.
cibus autem tuus quo vesceris erit in pondere viginti stateres in die a tempore usque ad tempus comedes illud
11 And thou shalt drink water by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from time to time shalt thou drink.
et aquam in mensura bibes sextam partem hin a tempore usque ad tempus bibes illud
12 And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it in their sight with dung that cometh out of man.
et quasi subcinericium hordiacium comedes illud et stercore quod egredietur de homine operies illud in oculis eorum
13 And Jehovah said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations whither I will drive them.
et dixit Dominus sic comedent filii Israhel panem suum pollutum inter gentes ad quas eiciam eos
14 Then said I, Ah Lord Jehovah! behold, my soul hath not been polluted; for from my youth up even till now have I not eaten of that which dieth of itself, or is torn of beasts; neither came there abominable flesh 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 unto me, See, I have given thee cow’s dung for man’s dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread thereon.
et dixit ad me ecce dedi tibi fimum boum pro stercoribus humanis et facies panem tuum in eo
16 Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight, and with fearfulness; and they shall 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 want bread and water, and 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
