Ezekiel 12

1The word of the LORD also came unto me, saying,

וַיְהִי דְבַר־יְהוָה אֵלַי לֵאמֹר׃ (575)

2Son 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.

בֶּן־אָדָם בְּתֹוךְ בֵּית־הַמֶּרִי אַתָּה יֹשֵׁב אֲשֶׁר עֵינַיִם לָהֶם לִרְאֹות וְלֹא רָאוּ אָזְנַיִם לָהֶם לִשְׁמֹעַ וְלֹא שָׁמֵעוּ כִּי בֵּית מְרִי הֵם׃ (5360)

3Therefore, thou son of man, prepare thee stuff for removing, and remove by day in their sight; and thou shalt remove from thy place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they be a rebellious house.

וְאַתָּה בֶן־אָדָם עֲשֵׂה לְךָ כְּלֵי גֹולָה וּגְלֵה יֹומָם לְעֵינֵיהֶם וְגָלִיתָ מִמְּקֹומְךָ אֶל־מָקֹום אַחֵר לְעֵינֵיהֶם אוּלַי יִרְאוּ כִּי בֵּית מְרִי הֵמָּה׃ (3735)

4Then 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, as they that go forth into captivity.

וְהֹוצֵאתָ כֵלֶיךָ כִּכְלֵי גֹולָה יֹומָם לְעֵינֵיהֶם וְאַתָּה תֵּצֵא בָעֶרֶב לְעֵינֵיהֶם כְּמֹוצָאֵי גֹּולָה׃ (2626)

5Dig thou through the wall in their sight, and carry out thereby.

לְעֵינֵיהֶם חֲתָר־לְךָ בַקִּיר וְהֹוצֵאתָ בֹּו׃ (1701)

6In 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.

לְעֵינֵיהֶם עַל־כָּתֵף תִּשָּׂא בָּעֲלָטָה תֹוצִיא פָּנֶיךָ תְכַסֶּה וְלֹא תִרְאֶה אֶת־הָאָרֶץ כִּי־מֹופֵת נְתַתִּיךָ לְבֵית יִשְׂרָאֵל׃ (6543)

7And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for captivity, and in the even I digged through the wall with mine hand; I brought it forth in the twilight, and I bare it upon my shoulder in their sight.

וָאַעַשׂ כֵּן כַּאֲשֶׁר צֻוֵּיתִי כֵּלַי הֹוצֵאתִי כִּכְלֵי גֹולָה יֹומָם וּבָעֶרֶב חָתַרְתִּי־לִי בַקִּיר בְּיָד בָּעֲלָטָה הֹוצֵאתִי עַל־כָּתֵף נָשָׂאתִי לְעֵינֵיהֶם׃ (6146)

8And in the morning came the word of the LORD unto me, saying,

וַיְהִי דְבַר־יְהוָה אֵלַי בַּבֹּקֶר לֵאמֹר׃ (879)

9Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said unto thee, What doest thou?

בֶּן־אָדָם הֲלֹא אָמְרוּ אֵלֶיךָ בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל בֵּית הַמֶּרִי מָה אַתָּה עֹשֶׂה׃ (2887)

10Say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; This burden concerneth the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.

אֱמֹר אֲלֵיהֶם כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהֹוִה הַנָּשִׂיא הַמַּשָּׂא הַזֶּה בִּירוּשָׁלַם וְכָל־בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר־הֵמָּה בְתֹוכָם׃ (4029)

11Say, I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: they shall remove and go into captivity.

אֱמֹר אֲנִי מֹופֶתְכֶם כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשִׂיתִי כֵּן יֵעָשֶׂה לָהֶם בַּגֹּולָה בַשְּׁבִי יֵלֵכוּ׃ (3155)

12And 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.

וְהַנָּשִׂיא אֲשֶׁר־בְּתֹוכָם אֶל־כָּתֵף יִשָּׂא בָּעֲלָטָה וְיֵצֵא בַּקִּיר יַחְתְּרוּ לְהֹוצִיא בֹו פָּנָיו יְכַסֶּה יַעַן אֲשֶׁר לֹא־יִרְאֶה לַעַיִן הוּא אֶת־הָאָרֶץ׃ (5480)

13My net also will I spread upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare: and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, though he shall die there.

וּפָרַשְׂתִּי אֶת־רִשְׁתִּי עָלָיו וְנִתְפַּשׂ בִּמְצוּדָתִי וְהֵבֵאתִי אֹתֹו בָבֶלָה אֶרֶץ כַּשְׂדִּים וְאֹותָהּ לֹא־יִרְאֶה וְשָׁם יָמוּת׃ (6813)

14And 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.

וְכֹל אֲשֶׁר סְבִיבֹתָיו [עֶזְרֹה כ] (עֶזְרֹו ק) וְכָל־אֲגַפָּיו אֱזָרֶה לְכָל־רוּחַ וְחֶרֶב אָרִיק אַחֲרֵיהֶם׃ (3186)

15And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries.

וְיָדְעוּ כִּי־אֲנִי יְהוָה בַּהֲפִיצִי אֹותָם בַּגֹּויִם וְזֵרִיתִי אֹותָם בָּאֲרָצֹות׃ (2697)

16But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the heathen whither they come; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

וְהֹותַרְתִּי מֵהֶם אַנְשֵׁי מִסְפָּר מֵחֶרֶב מֵרָעָב וּמִדָּבֶר לְמַעַן יְסַפְּרוּ אֶת־כָּל־תֹּועֲבֹותֵיהֶם בַּגֹּויִם אֲשֶׁר־בָּאוּ שָׁם וְיָדְעוּ כִּי־אֲנִי יְהוָה׃ (5727)

17Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,

וַיְהִי דְבַר־יְהוָה אֵלַי לֵאמֹר׃ (575)

18Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with trembling and with carefulness;

בֶּן־אָדָם לַחְמְךָ בְּרַעַשׁ תֹּאכֵל וּמֵימֶיךָ בְּרָגְזָה וּבִדְאָגָה תִּשְׁתֶּה׃ (2687)

19And say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord GOD of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and of the land of Israel; They shall eat their bread with carefulness, and drink their water with astonishment, that her land may be desolate from all that is therein, because of the violence of all them that dwell therein.

וְאָמַרְתָּ אֶל־עַם הָאָרֶץ כֹּה־אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה לְיֹושְׁבֵי יְרוּשָׁלִַם אֶל־אַדְמַת יִשְׂרָאֵל לַחְמָם בִּדְאָגָה יֹאכֵלוּ וּמֵימֵיהֶם בְּשִׁמָּמֹון יִשְׁתּוּ לְמַעַן תֵּשַׁם אַרְצָהּ מִמְּלֹאָהּ מֵחֲמַס כָּל־הַיֹּשְׁבִים בָּהּ׃ (6821)

20And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

וְהֶעָרִים הַנֹּושָׁבֹות תֶּחֱרַבְנָה וְהָאָרֶץ שְׁמָמָה תִהְיֶה וִידַעְתֶּם כִּי־אֲנִי יְהוָה׃ (3519)

21And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

וַיְהִי דְבַר־יְהוָה אֵלַי לֵאמֹר׃ (575)
