| 5 | 1 | And thou, son of man, take thee a sharp knife that shaveth the hair: and cause it to pass over thy head, and over thy beard: and take thee a balance to weigh in, and divide the hair. | et tu fili hominis sume tibi gladium acutum radentem pilos adsumes eum et duces per caput tuum et per barbam tuam et adsumes tibi stateram ponderis et divides eos |
| 5 | 2 | A third part thou shalt burn with fire in the midst of the city, according to the fulfilling of the days of the siege: and thou shalt take a third part, and cut it in pieces with the knife all round about: and the other third part thou shalt scatter in the wind, and I will draw out the sword after them. | tertiam partem igni conbures in medio civitatis iuxta conpletionem dierum obsidionis et adsumens tertiam partem concides gladio in circuitu eius tertiam vero aliam disperges in ventum et gladium nudabo post eos |
| 5 | 3 | And thou shalt take thereof a small number: and shalt bind them in the skirt of thy cloak. | et sumes inde parvum numerum et ligabis eos in summitate pallii tui |
| 5 | 4 | And thou shalt take of them again, and shalt cast them in the midst of the fire, and shalt burn them with fire: and out of it shall come forth a fire into all the house of Israel. | et ex eis rursum tolles et proicies in medio ignis et conbures eos igni ex eo egredietur ignis in omnem domum Israhel |
| 5 | 5 | Thus saith the Lord God: This is Jerusalem, I have set her in the midst of the nations, and the countries round about her. | haec dicit Dominus Deus ista est Hierusalem in medio gentium posui eam et in circuitu eius terras |
| 5 | 6 | And she hath despised my judgments, so as to be more wicked than the Gentiles; and my commandments, more than the countries that are round about her: for they have cast off my judgments, and have not walked in my commandments. | et contempsit iudicia mea ut plus esset impia quam gentes et praecepta mea ultra quam terrae quae in circuitu eius sunt iudicia enim mea proiecerunt et in praeceptis meis non ambulaverunt |
| 5 | 7 | Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because you have surpassed the Gentiles that are round about you, and have not walked in my commandments, and have not kept my judgments, and have not done according to the judgments of the nations that are round about you: | idcirco haec dicit Dominus Deus quia superastis gentes quae in circuitu vestro sunt in praeceptis meis non ambulastis et iudicia mea non fecistis et iuxta iudicia gentium quae in circuitu vestro sunt non estis operati |
| 5 | 8 | Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I come against thee, and I myself will execute judgments in the midst of thee in the sight of the Gentiles. | ideo haec dicit Dominus Deus ecce ego ad te et ipse ego faciam in medio tui iudicia in oculis gentium |
| 5 | 9 | And I will do in thee that which I have not done: and the like to which I will do no more, because of all thy abominations. | et faciam in te quae non feci et quibus similia ultra non faciam propter omnes abominationes tuas |
| 5 | 10 | Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst of thee, and the sons shall eat their fathers: and I will execute judgments in thee, and I will scatter thy whole remnant into every wind. | ideo patres comedent filios in medio tui et filii comedent patres suos et faciam in te iudicia et ventilabo universas reliquias tuas in omnem ventum |
| 5 | 11 | Therefore as I live, saith the Lord God: Because thou hast violated my sanctuary with all thy offences, and with all thy abominations: I will also break thee in pieces, and my eye shall not spare, and I will not have any pity. | idcirco vivo ego dicit Dominus Deus nisi pro eo quod sanctum meum violasti in omnibus offensionibus tuis et in omnibus abominationibus tuis ego quoque confringam et non parcet oculus meus et non miserebor |
| 5 | 12 | A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and shall be consumed with famine in the midst of thee: and a third part of thee shall fall by the sword round about thee: and a third part of thee will I scatter into every wind, and I will draw out a sword after them. | tertia tui pars peste morietur et fame consumetur in medio tui et tertia tui pars gladio cadet in circuitu tuo tertiam vero partem tuam in omnem ventum dispergam et gladium evaginabo post eos |
| 5 | 13 | And I will accomplish my fury, and will cause my indignation to rest upon them, and I will be comforted: and they shall know that I the Lord have spoken it in my zeal, when I shall have accomplished my indignation in them. | et conpleam furorem meum et requiescere faciam indignationem meam in eis et consolabor et scient quia ego Dominus locutus sum in zelo meo cum implevero indignationem meam in eis |
| 5 | 14 | And I will make thee desolate, and a reproach among the nations that are round about thee, in the sight of every one that passeth by. | et dabo te in desertum et in obprobrium in gentibus quae in circuitu tuo sunt in conspectu omnis praetereuntis |
| 5 | 15 | And thou shalt be a reproach, and a scoff, an example, and an astonishment amongst the nations that are round about thee, when I shall have executed judgments in thee in anger, and in indignation, and in wrathful rebukes. | et eris obprobrium et blasphemia exemplum et stupor in gentibus quae in circuitu tuo sunt cum fecero in te iudicia in furore et in indignatione et in increpationibus irae |
| 5 | 16 | I the Lord have spoken it: When I shall send upon them the grievous arrows of famine, which shall bring death, and which I will send to destroy you: and I will gather together famine against you: and I will break among you the staff of bread. | ego Dominus locutus sum quando misero sagittas famis pessimas in eos quae erunt mortiferae et quas mittam ut disperdam vos et famem congregabo super vos et conteram vobis baculum panis |
| 5 | 17 | And I will send in upon you famine, and evil beasts unto utter destruction: and pestilence, and blood shall pass through thee, and I will bring in the sword upon thee. I the Lord have spoken it. | et inmittam in vos famem et bestias pessimas usque ad internicionem et pestilentia et sanguis transibunt per te et gladium inducam super te ego Dominus locutus sum |
