Revised Standard Version RSV
The Latin Vulgate VUL
1 "And you, O son of man, take a brick and lay it before you, and portray upon it a city, even Jerusalem;
1
et tu fili hominis sume tibi laterem et pones eum coram te et describes in eo civitatem Hierusalem
2 and put siegeworks against it, and build a siege wall against it, and cast up a mound against it; set camps also against it, and plant battering rams against it round about.
2
et ordinabis adversus eam obsidionem et aedificabis munitiones et conportabis aggerem et dabis contra eam castra et pones arietes in gyro
3 And take an iron plate, and place it as an iron wall between you and the city; and set your face toward it, and let it be in a state of siege, and press the siege against it. This is a sign for the house of Israel.
3
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 "Then lie upon your left side, and I will lay the punishment of the house of Israel upon you; for the number of the days that you lie upon it, you shall bear their punishment.
4
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 assign to you a number of days, three hundred and ninety days, equal to the number of the years of their punishment; so long shall you bear the punishment of the house of Israel.
5
ego autem dedi tibi annos iniquitatis eorum numero dierum trecentos et nonaginta dies et portabis iniquitatem domus Israhel
6 And when you have completed these, you shall lie down a second time, but on your right side, and bear the punishment of the house of Judah; forty days I assign you, a day for each year.
6
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 you shall set your face toward the siege of Jerusalem, with your arm bared; and you shall prophesy against the city.
7
et ad obsidionem Hierusalem convertes faciem tuam et brachium tuum erit exertum et prophetabis adversus eam
8 And, behold, I will put cords upon you, so that you cannot turn from one side to the other, till you have completed the days of your siege.
8
ecce circumdedi te vinculis et non te convertes a latere tuo in latus aliud donec conpleas dies obsidionis tuae
9 "And you, take wheat and barley, beans and lentils, millet and spelt, and put them into a single vessel, and make bread of them. During the number of days that you lie upon your side, three hundred and ninety days, you shall eat it.
9
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 the food which you eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day; once a day you shall eat it.
10
cibus autem tuus quo vesceris erit in pondere viginti stateres in die a tempore usque ad tempus comedes illud
11 And water you shall drink by measure, the sixth part of a hin; once a day you shall drink.
11
et aquam in mensura bibes sextam partem hin a tempore usque ad tempus bibes illud
12 And you shall eat it as a barley cake, baking it in their sight on human dung."
12
et quasi subcinericium hordiacium comedes illud et stercore quod egredietur de homine operies illud in oculis eorum
13 And the LORD said, "Thus shall the people of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations whither I will drive them."
13
et dixit Dominus sic comedent filii Israhel panem suum pollutum inter gentes ad quas eiciam eos
14 Then I said, "Ah Lord GOD! behold, I have never defiled myself; from my youth up till now I have never eaten what died of itself or was torn by beasts, nor has foul flesh come into my mouth."
14
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 to me, "See, I will let you have cow's dung instead of human dung, on which you may prepare your bread."
15
et dixit ad me ecce dedi tibi fimum boum pro stercoribus humanis et facies panem tuum in eo
16 Moreover he said to me, "Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem; they shall eat bread by weight and with fearfulness; and they shall drink water by measure and in dismay.
16
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 I will do this that they may lack bread and water, and look at one another in dismay, and waste away under their punishment.
17
ut deficientibus pane et aqua corruat unusquisque ad fratrem suum et contabescant in iniquitatibus suis
