1  And the word¹⁶⁹⁷ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ came¹⁹⁶¹ unto⁴¹³ me, saying,⁵⁵⁹

2  Son¹¹²¹ of man,¹²⁰ put forth²³³⁰ a riddle,²⁴²⁰ and speak⁴⁹¹¹ a parable⁴⁹¹² unto⁴¹³ the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Israel;³⁴⁷⁸

3  And say,⁵⁵⁹ Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the Lord¹³⁶ GOD;³⁰⁶⁹ A great¹⁴¹⁹ eagle⁵⁴⁰⁴ with great¹⁴¹⁹ wings,³⁶⁷¹ long-winged,^{750 83} full⁴³⁹² of feathers,⁵¹³³ which⁸³⁴ had divers colors,⁷⁵⁵³ came⁹³⁵ unto⁴¹³ Lebanon,³⁸⁴⁴ and took^{3947 853} the highest branch⁶⁷⁸⁸ of the cedar:⁷³⁰

4  He cropped off^{6998 853} the top⁷²¹⁸ of his young twigs,³²⁴² and carried⁹³⁵ it into⁴¹³ a land⁷⁷⁶ of traffic;³⁶⁶⁷ he set⁷⁷⁶⁰ it in a city⁵⁸⁹² of merchants.⁷⁴⁰²

5  He took³⁹⁴⁷ also of the seed^{4480 2233} of the land,⁷⁷⁶ and planted⁵⁴¹⁴ it in a fruitful²²³³ field;⁷⁷⁰⁴ he placed³⁹⁴⁷ it by⁵⁹²¹ great⁷²²⁷ waters,⁴³²⁵ and set⁷⁷⁶⁰ it as a willow tree.⁶⁸⁵¹

6  And it grew,⁶⁷⁷⁹ and became¹⁹⁶¹ a spreading⁵⁶²⁸ vine¹⁶¹² of low⁸²¹⁷ stature,⁶⁹⁶⁷ whose branches¹⁸⁰⁸ turned⁶⁴³⁷ toward⁴¹³ him, and the roots⁸³²⁸ thereof were¹⁹⁶¹ under⁸⁴⁷⁸ him: so it became¹⁹⁶¹ a vine,¹⁶¹² and brought forth⁶²¹³ branches,⁹⁰⁵ and shot forth⁷⁹⁷¹ sprigs.⁶²⁸⁸

7  There was¹⁹⁶¹ also another²⁵⁹ great¹⁴¹⁹ eagle⁵⁴⁰⁴ with great¹⁴¹⁹ wings³⁶⁷¹ and many⁷²²⁷ feathers:⁵¹³³ and, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ this²⁰⁶³ vine¹⁶¹² did bend³⁷¹⁹ her roots⁸³²⁸ toward him, and shot forth⁷⁹⁷¹ her branches¹⁸⁰⁸ toward⁵⁹²¹ him, that he might water⁸²⁴⁸ it by the furrows^{4480 6170} of her plantation.⁴³⁰²

8  It¹⁹³¹ was planted⁸³⁶² in⁴¹³ a good²⁸⁹⁶ soil⁷⁷⁰⁴ by⁴¹³ great⁷²²⁷ waters,⁴³²⁵ that it might bring forth⁶²¹³ branches,⁶⁰⁵⁷ and that it might bear⁵³⁷⁵ fruit,⁶⁵²⁹ that it might be¹⁹⁶¹ a goodly¹⁵⁵ vine.¹⁶¹²

9  Say⁵⁵⁹ thou, Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the Lord¹³⁶ GOD;³⁰⁶⁹ Shall it prosper?⁶⁷⁴³ shall he not³⁸⁰⁸ pull up^{5423 853} the roots⁸³²⁸ thereof, and cut off⁷⁰⁸² the fruit⁶⁵²⁹ thereof, that it wither?³⁰⁰¹ it shall wither³⁰⁰¹ in all³⁶⁰⁵ the leaves²⁹⁶⁵ of her spring,⁶⁷⁸⁰ even without³⁸⁰⁸ great¹⁴¹⁹ power²²²⁰ or many⁷²²⁷ people⁵⁹⁷¹ to pluck it up^{5375 853} by the roots^{4480 8328} thereof.

10  Yea, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ being planted,⁸³⁶² shall it prosper?⁶⁷⁴³ shall it not³⁸⁰⁸ utterly wither,^{3001 3001} when the east⁶⁹²¹ wind⁷³⁰⁷ toucheth⁵⁰⁶⁰ it? it shall wither³⁰⁰¹ in⁵⁹²¹ the furrows⁶¹⁷⁰ where it grew.⁶⁷⁸⁰

11  Moreover the word¹⁶⁹⁷ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ came¹⁹⁶¹ unto⁴¹³ me, saying,⁵⁵⁹

12  Say⁵⁵⁹ now⁴⁹⁹⁴ to the rebellious⁴⁸⁰⁵ house,¹⁰⁰⁴ Know³⁰⁴⁵ ye not³⁸⁰⁸ what⁴¹⁰⁰ these⁴²⁸ things mean? tell⁵⁵⁹ them, Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Babylon⁸⁹⁴ is come⁹³⁵ to Jerusalem,³³⁸⁹ and hath taken^{3947 853} the king⁴⁴²⁸ thereof, and the princes⁸²⁶⁹ thereof, and led⁹³⁵ them with⁴¹³ him to Babylon;⁸⁹⁴

13  And hath taken³⁹⁴⁷ of the king's⁴⁴¹⁰ seed,^{4480 2233} and made³⁷⁷² a covenant¹²⁸⁵ with⁸⁵⁴ him, and hath taken⁹³⁵ an oath⁴²³ of him: he hath also taken³⁹⁴⁷ the mighty³⁵² of the land:⁷⁷⁶

14  That the kingdom⁴⁴⁶⁷ might be¹⁹⁶¹ base,⁸²¹⁷ that it might not¹¹¹⁵ lift itself up,⁵³⁷⁵ but that by keeping^{8104 853} of his covenant¹²⁸⁵ it might stand.⁵⁹⁷⁵

15  But he rebelled⁴⁷⁷⁵ against him in sending⁷⁹⁷¹ his ambassadors⁴³⁹⁷ into Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ that they might give⁵⁴¹⁴ him horses⁵⁴⁸³ and much⁷²²⁷ people.⁵⁹⁷¹ Shall he prosper?⁶⁷⁴³ shall he escape⁴⁴²² that doeth⁶²¹³ such⁴²⁸ things? or shall he break⁶⁵⁶⁵ the covenant,¹²⁸⁵ and be delivered?⁴⁴²²

16  As I⁵⁸⁹ live,²⁴¹⁶ saith⁵⁰⁰² the Lord¹³⁶ GOD,³⁰⁶⁹ surely^{518 3808} in the place⁴⁷²⁵ where the king⁴⁴²⁸ dwelleth that made him king,^{4427 853} whose^{834 853} oath⁴²³ he despised,⁹⁵⁹ and whose^{834 853} covenant¹²⁸⁵ he broke,⁶⁵⁶⁵ even with⁸⁵⁴ him in the midst⁸⁴³² of Babylon⁸⁹⁴ he shall die.⁴¹⁹¹

17  Neither³⁸⁰⁸ shall Pharaoh⁶⁵⁴⁷ with his mighty¹⁴¹⁹ army²⁴²⁸ and great⁷²²⁷ company⁶⁹⁵¹ make⁶²¹³ for him in the war,⁴⁴²¹ by casting up⁸²¹⁰ mounts,⁵⁵⁵⁰ and building¹¹²⁹ forts,¹⁷⁸⁵ to cut off³⁷⁷² many⁷²²⁷ persons:⁵³¹⁵

18  Seeing he despised⁹⁵⁹ the oath⁴²³ by breaking⁶⁵⁶⁵ the covenant,¹²⁸⁵ when, lo,²⁰⁰⁹ he had given⁵⁴¹⁴ his hand,³⁰²⁷ and hath done⁶²¹³ all³⁶⁰⁵ these⁴²⁸ things, he shall not³⁸⁰⁸ escape.⁴⁴²²

19  Therefore³⁶⁵¹ thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the Lord¹³⁶ GOD;³⁰⁶⁹ As I⁵⁸⁹ live,²⁴¹⁶ surely^{518 3808} mine oath⁴²³ that⁸³⁴ he hath despised,⁹⁵⁹ and my covenant¹²⁸⁵ that⁸³⁴ he hath broken,⁶⁵⁶⁵ even it will I recompense⁵⁴¹⁴ upon his own head.⁷²¹⁸

20  And I will spread⁶⁵⁶⁶ my net⁷⁵⁶⁸ upon⁵⁹²¹ him, and he shall be taken⁸⁶¹⁰ in my snare,⁴⁶⁸⁶ and I will bring⁹³⁵ him to Babylon,⁸⁹⁴ and will plead⁸¹⁹⁹ with⁸⁵⁴ him there⁸⁰³³ for his trespass⁴⁶⁰³ that⁸³⁴ he hath trespassed⁴⁶⁰³ against me.

21  And all³⁶⁰⁵ his fugitives⁴⁰¹⁵ with all³⁶⁰⁵ his bands¹⁰² shall fall⁵³⁰⁷ by the sword,²⁷¹⁹ and they that remain⁷⁶⁰⁴ shall be scattered⁶⁵⁶⁶ toward all³⁶⁰⁵ winds:⁷³⁰⁷ and ye shall know³⁰⁴⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ I⁵⁸⁹ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ have spoken¹⁶⁹⁶ it.

22  Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the Lord¹³⁶ GOD;³⁰⁶⁹ I⁵⁸⁹ will also take³⁹⁴⁷ of the highest branch^{4480 6788} of the high⁷³¹¹ cedar,⁷³⁰ and will set⁵⁴¹⁴ it; I will crop off⁶⁹⁹⁸ from the top^{4480 7218} of his young twigs³¹²⁷ a tender one,⁷³⁹⁰ and will plant⁸³⁶² it upon⁵⁹²¹ a high¹³⁶⁴ mountain²⁰²² and eminent:⁸⁵²⁴

23  In the mountain²⁰²² of the height⁴⁷⁹¹ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ will I plant⁸³⁶² it: and it shall bring forth⁵³⁷⁵ boughs,⁶⁰⁵⁷ and bear⁶²¹³ fruit,⁶⁵²⁹ and be¹⁹⁶¹ a goodly¹¹⁷ cedar:⁷³⁰ and under⁸⁴⁷⁸ it shall dwell⁷⁹³¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ fowl⁶⁸³³ of every³⁶⁰⁵ wing;³⁶⁷¹ in the shadow⁶⁷³⁸ of the branches¹⁸⁰⁸ thereof shall they dwell.⁷⁹³¹

24  And all³⁶⁰⁵ the trees⁶⁰⁸⁶ of the field⁷⁷⁰⁴ shall know³⁰⁴⁵ that³⁵⁸⁸ I⁵⁸⁹ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ have brought down⁸²¹³ the high¹³⁶⁴ tree,⁶⁰⁸⁶ have exalted¹³⁶¹ the low⁸²¹⁷ tree,⁶⁰⁸⁶ have dried up³⁰⁰¹ the green³⁸⁹² tree,⁶⁰⁸⁶ and have made the dry³⁰⁰² tree⁶⁰⁸⁶ to flourish:⁶⁵²⁴ I⁵⁸⁹ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ have spoken¹⁶⁹⁶ and have done⁶²¹³ it.

1 καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων

2 υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου διήγησαι διήγημα καὶ εἰπὸν παραβολὴν πρὸς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Ισραηλ

3 καὶ ἐρεῖς τάδε λέγει κύριος ὁ ἀετὸς ὁ μέγας ὁ μεγαλοπτέρυγος ὁ μακρὸς τῇ ἐκτάσει πλήρης ὀνύχων ὃς ἔχει τὸ ἥγημα εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὸν Λίβανον καὶ ἔλαβε τὰ ἐπίλεκτα τῆς κέδρου

4 τὰ ἄκρα τῆς ἁπαλότητος ἀπέκνισεν καὶ ἤνεγκεν αὐτὰ εἰς γῆν Χανααν εἰς πόλιν τετειχισμένην ἔθετο αὐτά

5 καὶ ἔλαβεν ἀπὸ τοῦ σπέρματος τῆς γῆς καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸ εἰς τὸ πεδίον φυτὸν ἐφ᾽ ὕδατι πολλῷ ἐπιβλεπόμενον ἔταξεν αὐτό

6 καὶ ἀνέτειλεν καὶ ἐγένετο εἰς ἄμπελον ἀσθενοῦσαν καὶ μικρὰν τῷ μεγέθει τοῦ ἐπιφαίνεσθαι αὐτήν τὰ κλήματα αὐτῆς ἐπ᾽ αὐτὴν καὶ αἱ ῥίζαι αὐτῆς ὑποκάτω αὐτῆς ἦσαν καὶ ἐγένετο εἰς ἄμπελον καὶ ἐποίησεν ἀπώρυγας καὶ ἐξέτεινεν τὴν ἀναδενδράδα αὐτῆς

7 καὶ ἐγένετο ἀετὸς ἕτερος μέγας μεγαλοπτέρυγος πολὺς ὄνυξιν καὶ ἰδοὺ ἡ ἄμπελος αὕτη περιπεπλεγμένη πρὸς αὐτόν καὶ αἱ ῥίζαι αὐτῆς πρὸς αὐτόν καὶ τὰ κλήματα αὐτῆς ἐξαπέστειλεν αὐτῷ τοῦ ποτίσαι αὐτὴν σὺν τῷ βώλῳ τῆς φυτείας αὐτῆς

8 εἰς πεδίον καλὸν ἐφ᾽ ὕδατι πολλῷ αὕτη πιαίνεται τοῦ ποιεῖν βλαστοὺς καὶ φέρειν καρπὸν τοῦ εἶναι εἰς ἄμπελον μεγάλην

9 διὰ τοῦτο εἰπόν τάδε λέγει κύριος εἰ κατευθυνεῖ οὐχὶ αἱ ῥίζαι τῆς ἁπαλότητος αὐτῆς καὶ ὁ καρπὸς σαπήσεται καὶ ξηρανθήσεται πάντα τὰ προανατέλλοντα αὐτῆς καὶ οὐκ ἐν βραχίονι μεγάλῳ οὐδ᾽ ἐν λαῷ πολλῷ τοῦ ἐκσπάσαι αὐτὴν ἐκ ῥιζῶν αὐτῆς

10 καὶ ἰδοὺ πιαίνεται μὴ κατευθυνεῖ οὐχ ἅμα τῷ ἅψασθαι αὐτῆς ἄνεμον τὸν καύσωνα ξηρανθήσεται ξηρασίᾳ σὺν τῷ βώλῳ ἀνατολῆς αὐτῆς ξηρανθήσεται

11 καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων

12 υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου εἰπὸν δὴ πρὸς τὸν οἶκον τὸν παραπικραίνοντα οὐκ ἐπίστασθε τί ἦν ταῦτα εἰπόν ὅταν ἔλθῃ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐπὶ Ιερουσαλημ καὶ λήμψεται τὸν βασιλέα αὐτῆς καὶ τοὺς ἄρχοντας αὐτῆς καὶ ἄξει αὐτοὺς πρὸς ἑαυτὸν εἰς Βαβυλῶνα

13 καὶ λήμψεται ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματος τῆς βασιλείας καὶ διαθήσεται πρὸς αὐτὸν διαθήκην καὶ εἰσάξει αὐτὸν ἐν ἀρᾷ καὶ τοὺς ἡγουμένους τῆς γῆς λήμψεται

14 τοῦ γενέσθαι εἰς βασιλείαν ἀσθενῆ τὸ καθόλου μὴ ἐπαίρεσθαι τοῦ φυλάσσειν τὴν διαθήκην αὐτοῦ καὶ ἱστάνειν αὐτήν

15 καὶ ἀποστήσεται ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ τοῦ ἐξαποστέλλειν ἀγγέλους ἑαυτοῦ εἰς Αἴγυπτον τοῦ δοῦναι αὐτῷ ἵππους καὶ λαὸν πολύν εἰ κατευθυνεῖ εἰ διασωθήσεται ὁ ποιῶν ἐναντία καὶ παραβαίνων διαθήκην εἰ σωθήσεται

16 ζῶ ἐγώ λέγει κύριος ἐὰν μὴ ἐν ᾧ τόπῳ ὁ βασιλεὺς ὁ βασιλεύσας αὐτόν ὃς ἠτίμωσεν τὴν ἀράν μου καὶ ὃς παρέβη τὴν διαθήκην μου μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ ἐν μέσῳ Βαβυλῶνος τελευτήσει

17 καὶ οὐκ ἐν δυνάμει μεγάλῃ οὐδ᾽ ἐν ὄχλῳ πολλῷ ποιήσει πρὸς αὐτὸν Φαραω πόλεμον ἐν χαρακοβολίᾳ καὶ ἐν οἰκοδομῇ βελοστάσεων τοῦ ἐξᾶραι ψυχάς

18 καὶ ἠτίμωσεν ὁρκωμοσίαν τοῦ παραβῆναι διαθήκην καὶ ἰδοὺ δέδωκεν τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα ταῦτα ἐποίησεν αὐτῷ μὴ σωθήσεται

19 διὰ τοῦτο εἰπόν τάδε λέγει κύριος ζῶ ἐγὼ ἐὰν μὴ τὴν διαθήκην μου ἣν παρέβη καὶ τὴν ὁρκωμοσίαν μου ἣν ἠτίμωσεν καὶ δώσω αὐτὰ εἰς κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ

20 καὶ ἐκπετάσω ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν τὸ δίκτυόν μου καὶ ἁλώσεται ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ αὐτοῦ

21 ἐν πάσῃ παρατάξει αὐτοῦ ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ πεσοῦνται καὶ τοὺς καταλοίπους εἰς πάντα ἄνεμον διασπερῶ καὶ ἐπιγνώσεσθε διότι ἐγὼ κύριος λελάληκα

22 διότι τάδε λέγει κύριος καὶ λήμψομαι ἐγὼ ἐκ τῶν ἐπιλέκτων τῆς κέδρου ἐκ κορυφῆς καρδίας αὐτῶν ἀποκνιῶ καὶ καταφυτεύσω ἐγὼ ἐπ᾽ ὄρος ὑψηλόν καὶ κρεμάσω αὐτὸν

23 ἐν ὄρει μετεώρῳ τοῦ Ισραηλ καὶ καταφυτεύσω καὶ ἐξοίσει βλαστὸν καὶ ποιήσει καρπὸν καὶ ἔσται εἰς κέδρον μεγάλην καὶ ἀναπαύσεται ὑποκάτω αὐτοῦ πᾶν θηρίον καὶ πᾶν πετεινὸν ὑπὸ τὴν σκιὰν αὐτοῦ ἀναπαύσεται τὰ κλήματα αὐτοῦ ἀποκατασταθήσεται

24 καὶ γνώσονται πάντα τὰ ξύλα τοῦ πεδίου διότι ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ ταπεινῶν ξύλον ὑψηλὸν καὶ ὑψῶν ξύλον ταπεινὸν καὶ ξηραίνων ξύλον χλωρὸν καὶ ἀναθάλλων ξύλον ξηρόν ἐγὼ κύριος λελάληκα καὶ ποιήσω

1 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:

2 Fili hominis, propone ænigma, et narra parabolam ad domum Israël,

3 et dices: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Aquila grandis magnarum alarum, longo membrorum ductu, plena plumis et varietate, venit ad Libanum, et tulit medullam cedri.

4 Summitatem frondium ejus avulsit, et transportavit eam in terram Chanaan: in urbe negotiatorum posuit illam.

5 Et tulit de semine terræ, et posuit illud in terra pro semine, ut firmaret radicem super aquas multas: in superficie posuit illud.

6 Cumque germinasset, crevit in vineam latiorem, humili statura, respicientibus ramis ejus ad eam, et radices ejus sub illa erant: facta est ergo vinea, et fructificavit in palmites, et emisit propagines.

7 Et facta est aquila altera grandis, magnis alis, multisque plumis: et ecce vinea ista quasi mittens radices suas ad eam, palmites suos extendit ad illam, ut irrigaret eam de areolis germinis sui.

8 In terra bona super aquas multas plantata est, ut faciat frondes, et portet fructum, ut sit in vineam grandem.

9 Dic: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ergone prosperabitur? nonne radices ejus evellet, et fructus ejus distringet, et siccabit omnes palmites germinis ejus, et arescet, et non in brachio grandi, neque in populo multo, ut evelleret eam radicitus?

10 Ecce plantata est: ergone prosperabitur? nonne, cum tetigerit eam ventus urens, siccabitur, et in areis germinis sui arescet?

11 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:

12 Dic ad domum exasperantem: Nescitis quid ista significent? Dic: Ecce venit rex Babylonis in Jerusalem, et assumet regem et principes ejus, et adducet eos ad semetipsum in Babylonem.

13 Et tollet de semine regni, ferietque cum eo fœdus, et ab eo accipiet jusjurandum. Sed et fortes terræ tollet,

14 ut sit regnum humile, et non elevetur, sed custodiat pactum ejus, et servet illud.

15 Qui recedens ab eo misit nuntios ad Ægyptum, ut daret sibi equos et populum multum: numquid prosperabitur, vel consequetur salutem, qui fecit hæc? et qui dissolvit pactum, numquid effugiet?

16 Vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus, quoniam in loco regis qui constituit eum regem, cujus fecit irritum juramentum, et solvit pactum quod habebat cum eo, in medio Babylonis morietur.

17 Et non in exercitu grandi, neque in populo multo, faciet contra eum Pharao prælium: in jactu aggeris, et in exstructione vallorum, ut interficiat animas multas.

18 Spreverat enim juramentum, ut solveret fœdus, et ecce dedit manum suam: et cum omnia hæc fecerit, non effugiet.

19 Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Vivo ego, quoniam juramentum quod sprevit, et fœdus quod prævaricatus est, ponam in caput ejus.

20 Et expandam super eum rete meum, et comprehendetur in sagena mea: et adducam eum in Babylonem, et judicabo eum ibi in prævaricatione qua despexit me.

21 Et omnes profugi ejus, cum universo agmine suo, gladio cadent: residui autem in omnem ventum dispergentur: et scietis quia ego Dominus locutus sum.

22 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Et sumam ego de medulla cedri sublimis, et ponam: de vertice ramorum ejus tenerum distringam, et plantabo super montem excelsum et eminentem.

23 In monte sublimi Israël plantabo illud, et erumpet in germen, et faciet fructum, et erit in cedrum magnam: et habitabunt sub ea omnes volucres, et universum volatile sub umbra frondium ejus nidificabit:

24 et scient omnia ligna regionis quia ego Dominus humiliavi lignum sublime, et exaltavi lignum humile; et siccavi lignum viride, et frondere feci lignum aridum. Ego Dominus locutus sum, et feci.
