Notes on this text (2)
- The Old Testament is translated from the Hebrew, not from the Septuagint read in the Orthodox Church; there are no deuterocanonical books.
- Katharevousa (learned 19th-century Greek), as in the CrossWire module (text from theword.gr).
1 Και με ανέλαβε το πνεύμα και με έφερεν εις την ανατολικήν πύλην του οίκου του Κυρίου, την βλέπουσαν προς ανατολάς· και ιδού, εν τη θύρα της πύλης εικοσιπέντε άνδρες, και μεταξύ αυτών είδον τον Ιααζανίαν υιόν του Αζώρ και τον Φελατίαν υιόν του Βεναΐα, άρχοντας του λαού.
1 Moreover the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the east gate of Yahweh’s house, which looks eastward. Behold, twenty-five men were at the door of the gate; and I saw among them Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
2 Και είπε Κύριος προς εμέ, Υιέ ανθρώπου, ούτοι είναι οι άνδρες οι διαλογιζόμενοι αδικίαν και συμβουλεύοντες κακήν συμβουλήν εις την πόλιν ταύτην,
2 He said to me, “Son of man, these are the men who devise iniquity, and who give wicked counsel in this city;
3 οι λέγοντες, Δεν είναι πλησίον· ας κτίσωμεν οικίας· αύτη η πόλις είναι ο λέβης και ημείς το κρέας.
3 who say, ‘The time is not near to build houses. This is the cauldron, and we are the meat.’
4 Διά τούτο προφήτευσον εναντίον αυτών, προφήτευσον, υιέ ανθρώπου.
4 Therefore prophesy against them. Prophesy, son of man.”
5 Και πνεύμα Κυρίου έπεσεν επ' εμέ και μοι είπε, Λάλησον Ούτω λέγει Κύριος· κατά τούτον τον τρόπον ελαλήσατε, οίκος Ισραήλ διότι τα διαβούλια του πνεύματός σας, εγώ εξεύρω αυτά.
5 Yahweh’s Spirit fell on me, and he said to me, “Speak, ‘Yahweh says: “Thus you have said, house of Israel; for I know the things that come into your mind.
6 Επληθύνατε τους πεφονευμένους σας εν τη πόλει ταύτη, και εγεμίσατε τας οδούς αυτής από πεφονευμένων.
6 You have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled its streets with the slain.”
7 Όθεν ούτω λέγει Κύριος ο Θεός οι πεφονευμένοι σας, τους οποίους εθέσατε εν μέσω αυτής, ούτοι είναι το κρέας και αύτη η πόλις ο λέβης· σας όμως θέλω εκβάλει εκ μέσου αυτής.
7 “‘Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: “Your slain whom you have laid in the middle of it, they are the meat, and this is the cauldron; but you will be brought out of the middle of it.
8 Την μάχαιραν εφοβήθητε· και μάχαιραν θέλω φέρει εφ' υμάς, λέγει Κύριος ο Θεός.
8 You have feared the sword; and I will bring the sword on you,” says the Lord Yahweh.
9 Και θέλω σας εκβάλει εκ μέσου αυτής και θέλω σας παραδώσει εις χείρας αλλοφύλων· και θέλω εκτελέσει εφ' υμάς κρίσεις.
9 “I will bring you out of the middle of it, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
10 Υπό ρομφαίας θέλετε πέσει· εν τοις ορίοις του Ισραήλ θέλω σας κρίνει· και θέλετε γνωρίσει ότι εγώ είμαι ο Κύριος.
10 You will fall by the sword. I will judge you in the border of Israel. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.
11 Η πόλις αύτη δεν θέλει είσθαι εις εσάς ο λέβης ουδέ σεις θέλετε είσθαι εν μέσω αυτής το κρέας εν τοις ορίοις του Ισραήλ θέλω σας κρίνει
11 This will not be your cauldron, neither will you be the meat in the middle of it. I will judge you in the border of Israel.
12 και θέλετε γνωρίσει ότι εγώ είμαι ο Κύριος· διότι δεν περιεπατήσατε εν τοις διατάγμασί μου ουδέ εξετελέσατε τας κρίσεις μου, αλλ' επράξατε κατά τας κρίσεις των εθνών των κύκλω υμών.
12 You will know that I am Yahweh, for you have not walked in my statutes. You have not executed my ordinances, but have done after the ordinances of the nations that are around you.”’”
13 Ενώ δ' εγώ προεφήτευον, απέθανεν ο Φελατίας ο υιός του Βεναΐα. Τότε έπεσον επί πρόσωπόν μου και ανεβόησα μετά φωνής μεγάλης και είπα, Οίμοι, Κύριε Θεέ συντέλειαν θέλεις να κάμης συ του υπολοίπου του Ισραήλ;
13 When I prophesied, Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then I fell down on my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, “Ah Lord Yahweh! Will you make a full end of the remnant of Israel?”
14 Και έγεινε λόγος Κυρίου προς εμέ, λέγων,
14 Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,
15 Υιέ ανθρώπου, οι αδελφοί σου, οι αδελφοί σου, οι άνδρες της συγγενείας σου, και σύμπας ο οίκος Ισραήλ, είναι εκείνοι προς τους οποίους είπον οι κατοικούντες την Ιερουσαλήμ, Απομακρύνθητε από του Κυρίου εις ημάς εδόθη αύτη η γη διά κληρονομίαν.
15 “Son of man, your brothers, even your brothers, the men of your relatives, and all the house of Israel, all of them, are the ones to whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, ‘Go far away from Yahweh. This land has been given to us for a possession.’
16 Διά τούτο ειπέ, Ούτω λέγει Κύριος ο Θεός· Αν και απέρριψα αυτούς μακράν μεταξύ των εθνών, αν και διεσκόρπισα αυτούς εις τους τόπους, θέλω είσθαι όμως εις αυτούς ως μικρόν αγιαστήριον, εν τοις τόποις όπου υπάγωσι.
16 “Therefore say, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “Whereas I have removed them far off among the nations, and whereas I have scattered them among the countries, yet I will be to them a sanctuary for a little while in the countries where they have come.”’
17 Διά τούτο ειπέ, Ούτω λέγει Κύριος ο Θεός· Και θέλω σας συναθροίσει από των λαών και θέλω σας συνάξει εκ των τόπων όπου ήσθε διεσκορπισμένοι και θέλω σας δώσει την γην Ισραήλ.
17 “Therefore say, ‘The Lord Yahweh says: “I will gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.”
18 Και ελθόντες εκεί θέλουσι σηκώσει απ' αυτής πάντα τα βδελύγματα αυτής και πάντα τα μιαρά αυτής.
18 “‘They will come there, and they will take away all its detestable things and all its abominations from there.
19 Και θέλω δώσει εις αυτούς καρδίαν μίαν και πνεύμα νέον θέλω βάλει εν υμίν· και αποσπάσας την λιθίνην καρδίαν από της σαρκός αυτών θέλω δώσει εις αυτούς καρδίαν σαρκίνην,
19 I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within them. I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh,
20 διά να περιπατώσιν εν τοις διατάγμασί μου και να φυλάττωσι τας κρίσεις μου και να εκτελώσιν αυτάς· και θέλουσιν είσθαι λαός μου και εγώ θέλω είσθαι Θεός αυτών.
20 that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them. They will be my people, and I will be their God.
21 Εκείνων δε των οποίων η καρδία περιπατεί κατά την επιθυμίαν των βδελυγμάτων αυτών και των μιαρών αυτών, τας οδούς τούτων θέλω ανταποδώσει κατά της κεφαλής αυτών, λέγει Κύριος ο Θεός.
21 But as for them whose heart walks after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will bring their way on their own heads,’ says the Lord Yahweh.”
22 Τότε τα χερουβείμ ύψωσαν τας πτέρυγας αυτών και οι τροχοί ανέβαινον πλησίον αυτών· και η δόξα του Θεού του Ισραήλ ήτο επ' αυτών υπεράνωθεν.
22 Then the cherubim lifted up their wings, and the wheels were beside them. The glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
23 Και η δόξα του Κυρίου ανέβη εκ μέσου της πόλεως και εστάθη επί το όρος το προς ανατολάς της πόλεως.
23 Yahweh’s glory went up from the middle of the city, and stood on the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
24 Και με ανέλαβε το πνεύμα και δι' οράματος με έφερεν εν πνεύματι Θεού εις την γην των Χαλδαίων, προς τους αιχμαλώτους. Τότε το όραμα, το οποίον είδον, απήλθεν απ' εμού.
24 The Spirit lifted me up, and brought me in the vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to the captives. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.
25 Και ελάλησα προς τους αιχμαλώτους πάντα τα πράγματα όσα έδειξεν ο Κύριος εις εμέ.
25 Then I spoke to the captives all the things that Yahweh had shown me.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Ezekiel also speaks thus, The Spirit of the Lord came upon me, and said unto me, Thus saith the Lord.

Also thou hast in Ezekiel (if thou be not now weary of listening), what has already been quoted, And the Spirit fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the Lord.

And again in Ezekiel, And he brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldæa, to them of the captivity.
