Ezequiel 11
Louis Segond 1910
1L’esprit m’enleva, et me transporta à la porte orientale de la maison de l’Éternel, à celle qui regarde l’orient. Et voici, à l’entrée de la porte, il y avait vingt-cinq hommes; et je vis au milieu d’eux Jaazania, fils d’Azzur, et Pelathia, fils de Benaja, chefs du peuple.
2Et l’Éternel me dit: Fils de l’homme, ce sont les hommes qui méditent l’iniquité, et qui donnent de mauvais conseils dans cette ville.
3Ils disent: Ce n’est pas le moment! Bâtissons des maisons! La ville est la chaudière, et nous sommes la viande.
4C’est pourquoi prophétise contre eux, prophétise, fils de l’homme!
5Alors l’esprit de l’Éternel tomba sur moi. Et il me dit: Dis: Ainsi parle l’Éternel: Vous parlez de la sorte, maison d’Israël! Et ce qui vous monte à la pensée, je le sais.
6Vous avez multiplié les meurtres dans cette ville, Vous avez rempli les rues de cadavres.
7C’est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Vos morts que vous avez étendus au milieu d’elle, C’est la viande, et elle, c’est la chaudière; Mais vous, on vous en fera sortir.
8Vous avez peur de l’épée, Et je ferai venir sur vous l’épée, Dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel.
9Je vous ferai sortir du milieu d’elle, Je vous livrerai entre les mains des étrangers, Et j’exercerai contre vous mes jugements.
10Vous tomberez par l’épée, Je vous jugerai sur la frontière d’Israël, Et vous saurez que je suis l’Éternel.
11La ville ne sera pas pour vous une chaudière, Et vous ne serez pas la viande au milieu d’elle: C’est sur la frontière d’Israël que je vous jugerai.
12Et vous saurez que je suis l’Éternel, Dont vous n’avez pas suivi les ordonnances Et pratiqué les lois; Mais vous avez agi selon les lois des nations qui vous entourent.
13Comme je prophétisais, Pelathia, fils de Benaja, mourut. Je tombai sur ma face, et je m’écriai à haute voix: Ah! Seigneur Éternel, anéantiras-tu ce qui reste d’Israël?
14Et la parole de l’Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:
15Fils de l’homme, ce sont tes frères, tes frères, Ceux de ta parenté, et la maison d’Israël tout entière, A qui les habitants de Jérusalem disent: Restez loin de l’Éternel, Le pays nous a été donné en propriété.
16C’est pourquoi tu diras: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Si je les tiens éloignés parmi les nations, Si je les ai dispersés en divers pays, Je serai pour eux quelque temps un asile Dans les pays où ils sont venus.
17C’est pourquoi tu diras: Ainsi parle le Seigneur, l’Éternel: Je vous rassemblerai du milieu des peuples, Je vous recueillerai des pays où vous êtes dispersés, Et je vous donnerai la terre d’Israël.
18C’est là qu’ils iront, Et ils en ôteront toutes les idoles et toutes les abominations.
19Je leur donnerai un même cœur, Et je mettrai en vous un esprit nouveau; J’ôterai de leur corps le cœur de pierre, Et je leur donnerai un cœur de chair,
20Afin qu’ils suivent mes ordonnances, Et qu’ils observent et pratiquent mes lois; Et ils seront mon peuple, et je serai leur Dieu.
21Mais pour ceux dont le cœur se plaît à leurs idoles et à leurs abominations, Je ferai retomber leurs œuvres sur leur tête, Dit le Seigneur, l’Éternel.
22Les chérubins déployèrent leurs ailes, accompagnés des roues; et la gloire du Dieu d’Israël était sur eux, en haut.
23La gloire de l’Éternel s’éleva du milieu de la ville, et elle se plaça sur la montagne qui est à l’orient de la ville.
24L’esprit m’enleva, et me transporta en Chaldée auprès des captifs, en vision par l’esprit de Dieu; et la vision que j’avais eue disparut au-dessus de moi.
25Je dis aux captifs toutes les paroles de l’Éternel, qu’il m’avait révélées.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Y EL espíritu me elevó, y metióme por la puerta oriental de la casa de Jehová, la cual mira hacia el oriente: y he aquí á la entrada de la puerta veinticinco varones, entre los cuales vi á Jaazanías hijo de Azur, y á Pelatías hijo de Benaías, príncipes del pueblo.
2Y díjome: Hijo del hombre, estos son los hombres que maquinan perversidad, y dan en esta ciudad mal consejo;
3Los cuales dicen: No será tan presto: edifiquemos casas: ésta será la caldera, y nosotros la carne.
4Por tanto profetiza contra ellos, profetiza, hijo del hombre.
5Y cayó sobre mí el espíritu de Jehová, y díjome: Di: Así ha dicho Jehová: Así habéis hablado, oh casa de Israel, y las cosas que suben á vuestro espíritu, yo las he entendido.
6Habéis multiplicado vuestros muertos en esta ciudad, y habéis henchido de muertos sus calles.
7Por tanto, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Vuestros muertos que habéis puesto en medio de ella, ellos son la carne, y ella es la caldera; mas yo os sacaré á vosotros de en medio de ella.
8Cuchillo habéis temido, y cuchillo traeré sobre vosotros, dice el Señor Jehová.
9Y os sacaré de en medio de ella, y os entregaré en manos de extraños, y yo haré juicios en vosotros.
10A cuchillo caeréis; en el término de Israel os juzgaré, y sabréis que yo soy Jehová.
11Esta no os será por caldera, ni vosotros seréis en medio de ella la carne: en el término de Israel os tengo de juzgar.
12Y sabréis que yo soy Jehová: porque no habéis andado en mis ordenanzas, ni habéis hecho mis juicios, sino según los juicios de las gentes que están en vuestros alrededores habéis hecho.
13Y aconteció que, estando yo profetizando, Pelatías hijo de Benaías murió. Entonces caí sobre mi rostro, y clamé con grande voz, y dije: ¡Ah, Señor Jehová! ¿harás tú consumación del resto de Israel?
14Y fué á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:
15Hijo del hombre, tus hermanos, tus hermanos, los hombres de tu parentesco y toda la casa de Israel, toda ella son aquellos á quienes dijeron los moradores de Jerusalem: Alejaos de Jehová; á nosotros es dada la tierra en posesión.
16Por tanto di: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Aunque los he echado lejos entre las gentes, y los he esparcido por las tierras, con todo eso les seré por un pequeño santuario en las tierras á donde llegaren.
17Di por tanto: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Yo os recogeré de los pueblos, y os allegaré de las tierras en las cuales estáis esparcidos, y os daré la tierra de Israel.
18Y vendrán allá, y quitarán de ella todas sus torpezas, y todas sus abominaciones.
19Y darles he un corazón, y espíritu nuevo daré en sus entrañas; y quitaré el corazón de piedra de su carne, y daréles corazón de carne;
20Para que anden en mis ordenanzas, y guarden mis juicios y los cumplan, y me sean por pueblo, y yo sea á ellos por Dios.
21Mas á aquellos cuyo corazón anda tras el deseo de sus torpezas y de sus abominaciones, yo tornaré su camino sobre sus cabezas, dice el Señor Jehová.
22Después alzaron los querubines sus alas, y las ruedas en pos de ellos; y la gloria del Dios de Israel estaba sobre ellos encima.
23Y la gloria de Jehová se fué de en medio de la ciudad, y paró sobre el monte que está al oriente de la ciudad.
24Luego me levantó el espíritu, y volvióme á llevar en visión del espíritu de Dios á la tierra de los Caldeos, á los trasportados. Y partióse de mí la visión que había visto.
25Y hablé á los trasportados todas las palabras de Jehová que él me había mostrado.
King James Version
1Moreover the spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of the LORD’s house, which looketh eastward: and behold at the door of the gate five and twenty men; among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
2Then said he unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city:
3Which say, It is not near; let us build houses: this city is the caldron, and we be the flesh.
4Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man.
5And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them.
6Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain.
7Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Your slain whom ye have laid in the midst of it, they are the flesh, and this city is the caldron: but I will bring you forth out of the midst of it.
8Ye have feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the Lord GOD.
9And I will bring you out of the midst thereof, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
10Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
11This city shall not be your caldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst thereof; but I will judge you in the border of Israel:
12And ye shall know that I am the LORD: for ye have not walked in my statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after the manners of the heathen that are round about you.
13And it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?
14Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
15Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel wholly, are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Get you far from the LORD: unto us is this land given in possession.
16Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall come.
17Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
18And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the detestable things thereof and all the abominations thereof from thence.
19And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
20That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
21But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Lord GOD.
22Then did the cherubims lift up their wings, and the wheels beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
23And the glory of the LORD went up from the midst of the city, and stood upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
24Afterwards the spirit took me up, and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.
25Then I spake unto them of the captivity all the things that the LORD had shewed me.

1Moreover the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the east gate of the LORD’s house, which looks eastward. Behold, twenty-five men were at the door of the gate; and I saw among them Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
2He said to me, “Son of man, these are the men who devise iniquity, and who give wicked counsel in this city;
3who say, ‘The time is not near to build houses. This is the cauldron, and we are the meat.’
4Therefore prophesy against them. Prophesy, son of man.”
5The LORD’s Spirit fell on me, and he said to me, “Speak, ‘The LORD says: “Thus you have said, house of Israel; for I know the things that come into your mind.
6You have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled its streets with the slain.”
7“‘Therefore the Lord GOD says: “Your slain whom you have laid in the middle of it, they are the meat, and this is the cauldron; but you will be brought out of the middle of it.
8You have feared the sword; and I will bring the sword on you,” says the Lord GOD.
9“I will bring you out of the middle of it, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
10You will fall by the sword. I will judge you in the border of Israel. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
11This will not be your cauldron, neither will you be the meat in the middle of it. I will judge you in the border of Israel.
12You will know that I am the LORD, for you have not walked in my statutes. You have not executed my ordinances, but have done after the ordinances of the nations that are around you.”’”
13When I prophesied, Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then I fell down on my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, “Ah Lord GOD! Will you make a full end of the remnant of Israel?”
14The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
15“Son of man, your brothers, even your brothers, the men of your relatives, and all the house of Israel, all of them, are the ones to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, ‘Go far away from the LORD. This land has been given to us for a possession.’
16“Therefore say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Whereas I have removed them far off among the nations, and whereas I have scattered them among the countries, yet I will be to them a sanctuary for a little while in the countries where they have come.”’
17“Therefore say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “I will gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.”
18“‘They will come there, and they will take away all its detestable things and all its abominations from there.
19I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them. I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh,
20that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them. They will be my people, and I will be their God.
21But as for them whose heart walks after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will bring their way on their own heads,’ says the Lord GOD.”
22Then the cherubim lifted up their wings, and the wheels were beside them. The glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
23The LORD’s glory went up from the middle of the city, and stood on the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
24The Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to the captives. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.
25Then I spoke to the captives all the things that the LORD had shown me.
