Ezekiel 15

The Message Bible MSG

1 God's Message came to me:

2 "Son of man, how would you compare the wood of a vine with the branches of any tree you'd find in the forest?

3 Is vine wood ever used to make anything? Is it used to make pegs to hang things from?

4 "I don't think so. At best it's good for fuel. Look at it: a flimsy piece of vine, thrown in the fire and then rescued - the ends burned off and the middle charred. Now is it good for anything?

5 "Hardly. When it was whole it wasn't good for anything. Half-burned is no improvement. What's it good for?

6 "So here's the Message of God, the Master: Like the wood of the vine I selected from among the trees of the forest and used as fuel for the fire, just so I'll treat those who live in Jerusalem.

7 I am dead set against them. Even though at one time they got out of the fire charred, the fire's going to burn them up. When I take my stand against them, you'll realize that I am God.

8 I'll turn this country into a wilderness because they've been faithless." Decree of God, the Master.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens

2 fili hominis quid fiet ligno vitis ex omnibus lignis nemorum quae sunt inter ligna silvarum

3 numquid tolletur de ea lignum ut fiat opus aut fabricabitur de ea paxillus ut dependeat in eo quodcumque vas

4 ecce igni datum est in escam utramque partem eius consumpsit ignis et medietas eius redacta est in favillam numquid utile erit ad opus

5 etiam cum esset integrum non erat aptum ad opus quanto magis cum ignis illud devoraverit et conbuserit nihil ex eo fiet operis

6 propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus quomodo lignum vitis inter ligna silvarum quod dedi igni ad devorandum sic tradidi habitatores Hierusalem

7 et ponam faciem meam in eos de igne egredientur et ignis consumet eos et scietis quia ego Dominus cum posuero faciem meam in eos

8 et dedero terram inviam et desolatam eo quod praevaricatores extiterint dicit Dominus Deus
