New Century Version NCV
The Latin Vulgate VUL
1 The Lord spoke his word to me, saying:
1
et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens
2 "Human, is the wood of the vine better than the wood of any tree in the forest?
2
fili hominis quid fiet ligno vitis ex omnibus lignis nemorum quae sunt inter ligna silvarum
3 Can wood be taken from the vine to make anything? Can you use it to make a peg on which to hang something?
3
numquid tolletur de ea lignum ut fiat opus aut fabricabitur de ea paxillus ut dependeat in eo quodcumque vas
4 If the vine is thrown into the fire for fuel, and the fire burns up both ends and starts to burn the middle, is it useful for anything?
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 When the vine was whole, it couldn't be made into anything. When the fire has burned it completely, it certainly cannot be made into anything."
5
etiam cum esset integrum non erat aptum ad opus quanto magis cum ignis illud devoraverit et conbuserit nihil ex eo fiet operis
6 So this is what the Lord God says: "Out of all the trees in the forest, I have given the wood of the vine as fuel for fire. In the same way I have given up the people who live in Jerusalem
6
propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus quomodo lignum vitis inter ligna silvarum quod dedi igni ad devorandum sic tradidi habitatores Hierusalem
7 and will turn against them. Although they came through one fire, fire will still destroy them. When I turn against them, you will know that I am the Lord.
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 So I will make the land empty, because the people have not been loyal, says the Lord God."
8
et dedero terram inviam et desolatam eo quod praevaricatores extiterint dicit Dominus Deus
