| 12:1 | The word of the LORD also came unto me, saying, | And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, |
| 12:2 | Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a rebellious house. | `Son of man, in the midst of the rebellious house thou art dwelling, that have eyes to see, and they have not seen; ears they have to hear, and they have not heard; for a rebellious house `are' they. |
| 12:3 | Therefore, thou son of man, prepare thee |
And thou, son of man, make to thee vessels of removal, and remove by day before their eyes, and thou hast removed from thy place unto another place before their eyes, it may be they consider, for a rebellious house they `are'. |
| 12:4 | Then shalt thou bring forth thy stuff by day in their sight, as stuff for removing: and thou shalt go forth at even in their sight, |
And thou hast brought forth thy vessels as vessels of removal by day before their eyes, and thou, thou dost go forth at even before their eyes, as the goings forth of a removal. |
| 12:5 | Before their eyes dig for thee through the wall, and thou hast brought forth by it. | |
| 12:6 | In their sight shalt thou bear it upon thy shoulders, and carry it forth in the twilight: thou shalt cover thy face, that thou see not the ground: for I have set thee for a sign unto the house of Israel. | Before their eyes on the shoulder thou dost bear, in the darkness thou dost bring forth, thy face thou dost cover, and thou dost not see the earth, for a type I have given thee to the house of Israel.' |
| 12:7 | And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for captivity, and in the even |
And I do so, as I have been commanded; my vessels I have brought forth as vessels of removal by day, and at even I have dug for me through the wall with the hand; in the darkness I have brought forth, on the shoulder I have borne away, before their eyes. |
| 12:8 | And in the morning came the word of the LORD unto me, saying, | And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, in the morning, saying, |
| 12:9 | Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said unto thee, What doest thou? | `Son of man, have they not said unto thee -- the house of Israel -- the rebellious house -- What art thou doing? |
| 12:10 | Say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; This burden concerneth the prince in |
say unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: `The prince `is' this burden in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel who are in their midst. |
| 12:11 | Say, I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: they shall remove and go into captivity. | Say: I `am' your type; as I have done so it is done to them, into a removal, into a captivity, they do go. |
| 12:12 | And the prince that is among them shall bear upon his shoulder in the twilight, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby: he shall cover his face, that he see not the ground with his eyes. | As to the prince who `is' in their midst, on the shoulder he beareth in the darkness, and he goeth forth, through the wall they dig to bring forth by it, his face he covereth, that he may not look on the very surface of the land. |
| 12:13 | My net also will I spread upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare: and I will bring him to |
And I have spread My net for him, and he hath been caught in My snare, and I have brought him in to Babylon, the land of the Chaldeans, and it he doth not see -- and there doth he die. |
| 12:14 | And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them. | `And all who are round about him to help him, and all his bands, I do scatter to every wind, and a sword I draw out after them. |
| 12:15 | And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries. | And they have known that I `am' Jehovah, in My scattering them among nations, and I have spread them through lands; |
| 12:16 | But I will leave |
and I have left of them, a few in number, from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence, so that they recount all their abominations among the nations whither they have come, and they have known that I `am' Jehovah.' |
| 12:17 | Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying, | And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, |
| 12:18 | Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with trembling and with carefulness; | `Son of man, thy bread in haste thou dost eat, and thy water with trembling and with fear thou dost drink; |
| 12:19 | And say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord GOD of the inhabitants of |
and thou hast said unto the people of the land, Thus said the Lord Jehovah concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, concerning the land of Israel: Their bread with fear they do eat, and their water with astonishment drink, because its land is desolate, because of its fulness, because of the violence of all who are dwelling in it. |
| 12:20 | And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate; and ye shall know that I am the LORD. | And the cities that are inhabited are laid waste, and the land is a desolation, and ye have known that I `am' Jehovah.' |
| 12:21 | And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, | And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, |
| 12:22 | Son of man, what is that proverb that ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth? | `Son of man, what `is' this simile to you, concerning the land of Israel, saying, Prolonged are the days, and perished hath every vision? |
| 12:23 | Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the effect of every vision. | therefore say unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: I have caused this simile to cease, And they use it not as a simile again in Israel, But speak to them: Drawn near have the days, And spoken hath every vision. |
| 12:24 | For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel. | For there is no more any vain vision, and flattering divination, In the midst of the house of Israel. |
| 12:25 | For I am the LORD: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall come to pass; it shall be no more prolonged: for in your days, O rebellious house, will I say the word, and will perform it, saith the Lord GOD. | For I `am' Jehovah, I speak, The word that I speak -- it is done, It is not prolonged any more, For, in your days, O rebellious house, I speak a word, and I have done it, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.' |
| 12:26 | Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying, | And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying: |
| 12:27 | Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that he seeth is for many days to come, and he prophesieth of the times that are far off. | `Son of man, lo, the house of Israel are saying, The vision that he is seeing `is' for many days, and of times far off he is prophesying, |
| 12:28 | Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; There shall none of my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord GOD. | therefore say unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: None of my words are prolonged any more, When I speak a word -- it is done, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!' |
