Ezekiel 11
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)
Pinatay ang Masasamang Pinuno
11 Pagkatapos, dinala ako ng Espiritu sa pintuan ng Templo sa gawing silangan. May dalawampu't limang tao roon, kasama si Jaazanias na anak ni Azur, at si Pelatia na anak ni Benaias; sila'y mga pinuno ng bayan. 2 Sinabi sa akin ni Yahweh, “Ezekiel, anak ng tao, sila ang nagpupunla ng masamang kaisipan sa lunsod na ito. 3 Sinasabi nila sa mga tao na hindi na dapat magtayo muli ng mga bahay sapagkat ang siyudad na ito ang matibay na tanggulan. 4 Kaya, magpahayag ka laban sa kanila.”
5 Nilukuban ako ng Espiritu[a] ni Yahweh at sinabi sa akin, “Sabihin mong ipinapasabi ni Yahweh: Mga Israelita, hindi lingid sa akin ang inyong mga pinagsasabi. Alam ko ang binabalak ninyo. 6 Patuloy ang patayan ninyo sa lunsod na ito at nagkalat ang bangkay sa mga lansangan. 7 Kaya, ito ang sinasabi ko: Ang lunsod ay natulad sa kaldero at ang karne ay ang mga bangkay. Hindi kayo dapat manatili rito. 8 Takot kayo sa tabak kaya ipasasalakay ko kayo sa mga taong bihasa sa paggamit ng tabak. 9 Iaalis ko kayo sa lunsod na ito at ipapabihag sa mga taga-ibang bayan bilang parusa. 10 Mamamatay kayo sa tabak sa may hangganan ng Israel. Sa gayon, makikilala ninyong ako si Yahweh. 11 Kailanma'y hindi ninyo magiging tanggulan ang Jerusalem at hindi kayo magiging ligtas sa loob nito. Paparusahan ko kayo kahit saan kayo magpunta. 12 Ipapakilala ko sa inyo kung sino ako sapagkat hindi kayo lumakad ayon sa aking mga tuntunin at hindi ninyo sinunod ang aking mga utos. Sa halip, namuhay kayo ayon sa tuntunin ng mga bansang nakapaligid sa inyo.”
13 Nang kasalukuyan akong nagpapahayag, patay na bumagsak si Pelatia. Dahil dito'y tumatangis akong nagpatirapa. Itinanong ko, “Panginoong Yahweh, uubusin mo rin ba ang natitira pang Israelita?”
Muling Titipunin ang mga Natirang Israelita
14 Sinabi sa akin ni Yahweh, 15 “Ezekiel, anak ng tao, ang mga kapatid mo at mga dinalang-bihag tulad mo, ang buong sambahayan ni Israel, ay pinagsabihan ng mga nakatira ngayon sa Jerusalem ng, ‘Lumayo kayo kay Yahweh, ang lupaing ito'y ibinigay na sa amin.’ 16 Kaya, ganito ang sabihin mo sa kanila: ‘Pinangalat ko sila sa iba't ibang dako kaya maaari nila akong sambahing pansamantala saanman sila napatapon.’ 17 Sabihin mo na muli ko silang titipunin mula sa mga bansang kinatapunan nila at ibibigay kong muli sa kanila ang lupain. 18 At pagbalik nila roon, aalisin nila ang mga kasuklam-suklam na mga bagay roon. 19 Bibigyan(A) ko sila ng bagong puso at bagong espiritu. Ang masuwayin nilang puso ay papalitan ko ng pusong masunurin 20 upang lumakad sila ayon sa aking mga tuntunin at sumunod sa aking mga utos. Sa gayon, magiging bayan ko sila at ako ang kanilang magiging Diyos. 21 Ngunit pagbabayarin ko ang mga gumawa ng karumal-dumal at kasuklam-suklam na bagay.” Ito ang sabi ng Panginoong Yahweh.
Inalis ng Panginoong Yahweh ang Kanyang Kaluwalhatian sa Jerusalem
22 Pumaitaas(B) ang mga kerubin, kasama ang mga gulong, at ang kaluwalhatian ng Diyos ng Israel ay nasa itaas nila. 23 Ang kaluwalhatian ni Yahweh ay umalis sa lunsod at nagpunta sa ibabaw ng bundok sa gawing silangan. 24 Inilipad ako ng Espiritu[b] at sa pamamagitan ng pangitain ay dinala ako sa Babilonia, sa lugar ng mga dinalang-bihag. Doon natapos ang pangitain. 25 At sinabi ko sa mga dinalang-bihag ang lahat ng ipinakita sa akin ni Yahweh sa pamamagitan ng pangitain.

God’s Sure Judgment on Jerusalem
11 Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the gate of the house of the Lord that faces east. There at the entrance of the gate were twenty-five men, and I saw among them Jaazaniah son of Azzur and Pelatiah(A) son of Benaiah, leaders(B) of the people.(C) 2 The Lord said to me, “Son of man, these are the men who are plotting evil(D) and giving wicked advice in this city.(E) 3 They say, ‘Haven’t our houses been recently rebuilt? This city is a pot,(F) and we are the meat in it.’(G) 4 Therefore prophesy(H) against them; prophesy, son of man.”
5 Then the Spirit of the Lord came on me, and he told me to say: “This is what the Lord says: That is what you are saying, you leaders in Israel, but I know what is going through your mind.(I) 6 You have killed many people in this city and filled its streets with the dead.(J)
7 “Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: The bodies you have thrown there are the meat and this city is the pot,(K) but I will drive you out of it.(L) 8 You fear the sword,(M) and the sword is what I will bring against you, declares the Sovereign Lord.(N) 9 I will drive you out of the city and deliver you into the hands(O) of foreigners and inflict punishment on you.(P) 10 You will fall by the sword, and I will execute judgment on you at the borders of Israel.(Q) Then you will know that I am the Lord. 11 This city will not be a pot(R) for you, nor will you be the meat in it; I will execute judgment on you at the borders of Israel. 12 And you will know that I am the Lord,(S) for you have not followed my decrees(T) or kept my laws but have conformed to the standards of the nations around you.(U)”
13 Now as I was prophesying, Pelatiah(V) son of Benaiah died. Then I fell facedown and cried out in a loud voice, “Alas, Sovereign Lord! Will you completely destroy the remnant of Israel?(W)”
The Promise of Israel’s Return
14 The word of the Lord came to me: 15 “Son of man, the people of Jerusalem have said of your fellow exiles and all the other Israelites, ‘They are far away from the Lord; this land was given to us as our possession.’(X)
16 “Therefore say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Although I sent them far away among the nations and scattered them among the countries, yet for a little while I have been a sanctuary(Y) for them in the countries where they have gone.’
17 “Therefore say: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will gather you from the nations and bring you back from the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you back the land of Israel again.’(Z)
18 “They will return to it and remove all its vile images(AA) and detestable idols.(AB) 19 I will give them an undivided heart(AC) and put a new spirit in them; I will remove from them their heart of stone(AD) and give them a heart of flesh.(AE) 20 Then they will follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws.(AF) They will be my people,(AG) and I will be their God.(AH) 21 But as for those whose hearts are devoted to their vile images and detestable idols,(AI) I will bring down on their own heads what they have done, declares the Sovereign Lord.(AJ)”
22 Then the cherubim, with the wheels beside them, spread their wings, and the glory(AK) of the God of Israel was above them.(AL) 23 The glory(AM) of the Lord went up from within the city and stopped above the mountain(AN) east of it. 24 The Spirit(AO) lifted me up and brought me to the exiles in Babylonia[a] in the vision(AP) given by the Spirit of God.
Then the vision I had seen went up from me, 25 and I told the exiles everything the Lord had shown me.(AQ)

Judgment on Wicked Counselors
11 Then (A)the Spirit lifted me up and brought me to (B)the East Gate of the Lord’s house, which faces eastward; and there (C)at the door of the gate were twenty-five men, among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azzur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people. 2 And He said to me: “Son of man, these are the men who devise iniquity and give wicked [a]counsel in this city, 3 who say, ‘The time is not (D)near to build houses; (E)this city is the [b]caldron, and we are the meat.’ 4 Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man!”
5 Then (F)the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said to me, “Speak! ‘Thus says the Lord: “Thus you have said, O house of Israel; for (G)I know the things that come into your mind. 6 (H)You have multiplied your slain in this city, and you have filled its streets with the slain.” 7 Therefore thus says the Lord God: (I)“Your slain whom you have laid in its midst, they are the meat, and this city is the caldron; (J)but I shall bring you out of the midst of it. 8 You have (K)feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you,” says the Lord God. 9 “And I will bring you out of its midst, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and (L)execute judgments on you. 10 (M)You shall fall by the sword. I will judge you at (N)the border of Israel. (O)Then you shall know that I am the Lord. 11 (P)This city shall not be your [c]caldron, nor shall you be the meat in its midst. I will judge you at the border of Israel. 12 And you shall know that I am the Lord; for you have not walked in My statutes nor executed My judgments, but (Q)have done according to the customs of the Gentiles which are all around you.” ’ ”
13 Now it happened, while I was prophesying, that (R)Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then (S)I fell on my face and cried with a loud voice, and said, “Ah, Lord God! Will You make a complete end of the remnant of Israel?”
God Will Restore Israel
14 Again the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 15 “Son of man, your brethren, your relatives, your countrymen, and all the house of Israel in its entirety, are those about whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, ‘Get far away from the Lord; this land has been given to us as a possession.’ 16 Therefore say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Although I have cast them far off among the Gentiles, and although I have scattered them among the countries, (T)yet I shall be a little [d]sanctuary for them in the countries where they have gone.” ’ 17 Therefore say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: (U)“I will gather you from the peoples, assemble you from the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.” ’ 18 And they will go there, and they will take away all its (V)detestable things and all its abominations from there. 19 Then (W)I will give them one heart, and I will put (X)a new spirit within [e]them, and take (Y)the stony heart out of their flesh, and give them a heart of flesh, 20 (Z)that they may walk in My statutes and keep My judgments and do them; (AA)and they shall be My people, and I will be their God. 21 But as for those whose hearts follow the desire for their detestable things and their abominations, (AB)I will recompense their deeds on their own heads,” says the Lord God.
22 So the cherubim (AC)lifted up their wings, with the wheels beside them, and the glory of the God of Israel was high above them. 23 And (AD)the glory of the Lord went up from the midst of the city and stood (AE)on the mountain, (AF)which is on the east side of the city.
24 Then (AG)the Spirit took me up and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into [f]Chaldea, to those in captivity. And the vision that I had seen went up from me. 25 So I spoke to those in captivity of all the things the Lord had shown me.

Judgment on Wicked Counselors
11 (A)The Spirit lifted me up and brought me to (B)the east gate of the house of the Lord, which faces east. And behold, at the entrance of the gateway there were (C)twenty-five men. And I saw among them Jaazaniah (D)the son of Azzur, and (E)Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people. 2 And he said to me, (F)“Son of man, these are the men who devise iniquity and who give wicked counsel in this city; 3 (G)who say, (H)‘The time is not near[a] to build houses. (I)This city is the cauldron, and we are the meat.’ 4 Therefore prophesy against them; prophesy, O son of man.”
5 And (J)the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and he said to me, “Say, Thus says the Lord: So you think, O house of Israel. (K)For I know the things that come into your mind. 6 (L)You have multiplied your slain in this city and have filled its streets with the slain. 7 Therefore thus says the Lord God: (M)Your slain whom you have laid in the midst of it, (N)they are the meat, and (O)this city is the cauldron, but you shall be brought out of the midst of it. 8 (P)You have feared the sword, and I will bring the sword upon you, declares the Lord God. 9 And I will bring you out of the midst of it, and (Q)give you into the hands of foreigners, and (R)execute judgments upon you. 10 (S)You shall fall by the sword. I will judge you at the border of Israel, (T)and you shall know that I am the Lord. 11 (U)This city shall not be your cauldron, nor shall you be the meat in the midst of it. I will judge you at the border of Israel, 12 and you shall know that I am the Lord. For you have not walked in my statutes, nor obeyed my rules, (V)but have acted according to the rules of the nations that are around you.”
13 And it came to pass, while I was prophesying, (W)that (X)Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. (Y)Then I fell down on my face and cried out with a loud voice and said, (Z)“Ah, Lord God! (AA)Will you make a full end of the remnant of Israel?”
Israel's New Heart and Spirit
14 And the word of the Lord came to me: 15 (AB)“Son of man, your brothers, even your brothers, your kinsmen,[b] the whole house of Israel, all of them, are those of whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, (AC)‘Go far from the Lord; to us this land is given for a possession.’ 16 Therefore say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: Though I removed them far off among the nations, and though I scattered them among the countries, yet (AD)I have been a sanctuary to them for a while[c] in the countries where they have gone.’ 17 Therefore say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: (AE)I will gather you from the peoples and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, (AF)and I will give you the land of Israel.’ 18 And when they come there, (AG)they will remove from it all its (AH)detestable things and all its abominations. 19 (AI)And I will give them one heart, and (AJ)a new spirit I will put within them. (AK)I will remove the heart of stone from their flesh (AL)and give them a heart of flesh, 20 (AM)that they may walk in my statutes and keep my rules and obey them. (AN)And they shall be my people, and I will be their God. 21 (AO)But as for those whose heart goes after their detestable things and their abominations, (AP)I will[d] bring their deeds upon their own heads, declares the Lord God.”
22 (AQ)Then the cherubim lifted up their wings, with the wheels beside them, (AR)and the glory of the God of Israel was over them. 23 And the glory of the Lord went up from the midst of the city and (AS)stood on the mountain that is on the east side of the city. 24 (AT)And the Spirit lifted me up and brought me (AU)in the vision by the Spirit of God (AV)into Chaldea, to the exiles. Then the vision that I had seen went up from me. 25 And I told the exiles all the things that the Lord had shown me.
