Listen to Ezechiele 14:19
19 O se contro quel paese mandassi la peste, e riversassi su d’esso il mio furore fino al sangue, per sterminare uomini e bestie,

Ezechiele 14:19 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 14:19

Or [if] I send a pestilence into that land
Or the plague, which is the destruction that wastes at noon day; this is from the Lord, and a sore judgment it is: and pour out my fury upon it in blood;
or, "by blood" F25; by corrupting the blood, which is done when a man is seized with the pestilence. The Targum renders it, "with slaughter"; by slaying a great number of persons by that disease, as a token of fury and wrath, because of their transgressions. It may be rendered, "because of blood" F26; and so express the cause and reason of the judgment, the shedding of innocent blood: to cut off from it man and beast;
man by the pestilence, and beast by some contagious distemper or another.

Ezechiele 14:19 In-Context

17 O se io facessi venire la spada contro quel paese, e dicessi: Passi la spada per il paese! in guisa che ne sterminasse uomini e bestie,
18 se in mezzo ad esso si trovassero quei tre uomini, com’è vero ch’io vivo, dice il Signore, l’Eterno, essi non salverebbero né figliuoli né figliuole, ma essi soltanto sarebbero salvati.
19 O se contro quel paese mandassi la peste, e riversassi su d’esso il mio furore fino al sangue, per sterminare uomini e bestie,
20 se in mezzo ad esso si trovassero Noè, Daniele e Giobbe, com’è vero ch’io vivo, dice il Signore, l’Eterno, essi non salverebbero né figliuoli né figliuole; non salverebbero che le loro persone, per la loro giustizia.
21 Poiché così parla il Signore, l’Eterno: Non altrimenti avverrà quando manderò contro Gerusalemme i miei quattro tremendi giudizi: la spada, la fame, le male bestie e la peste, per sterminare uomini e bestie.
