以西结书 3
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
3 祂对我说：“人子啊，你要把得到的吃下去，要吃下这书卷，然后去向以色列人传讲。” 2 我张开口，祂就给我吃那书卷， 3 对我说：“吃下我赐你的这书卷，让它充满你的肚腹。”我便吃了，书卷在我嘴里甘甜如蜜。
4 祂又对我说：“人子啊，现在你要到以色列人那里，把我的话传给他们。 5 你不是奉命去语言不通的民族那里，而是到以色列人当中。 6 我不是派你到那些语言陌生、难懂、你听不明白的民族中。我若果真派你到他们那里，他们一定会听你的话。 7 然而以色列人却不肯听从你，因为他们顽固不化，不肯听从我。 8 不过，我要使你的脸像他们的脸一样硬，使你的额像他们的额一样硬。 9 我要使你的额比火石更硬，如同金刚石。他们虽然是一群叛逆的人，你不要害怕，也不要因为他们的脸色而惊慌。” 10 祂又说：“人子啊，你要留心听我说的一切话，牢记在心。 11 你要到你那些被掳的同胞那里，不论他们听不听，你都要向他们宣告，‘主耶和华这样说。’”
12 那时，灵把我举起，我听见后面有隆隆的声音说：“耶和华的荣耀在祂的居所当受称颂！” 13 我听见活物的翅膀相碰的声音，以及他们旁边的轮子发出的隆隆声。 14 灵把我举起带走了。我心里苦闷，充满愤怒，耶和华大能的手在我身上。 15 我来到住在提勒·亚毕的被掳的人中，在迦巴鲁河边。我感到无比震惊，在他们中间坐了七天。
告诫以色列人
16 过了七天，耶和华对我说： 17 “人子啊，我立你做以色列人的守望者，你要把我告诫他们的话告诉他们。 18 当我说某个恶人必灭亡时，如果你不告诫他，劝告他痛改前非，挽救他的性命，他必死在自己的罪中，而我要追究你的责任。 19 如果你已经告诫他，他还是不肯离开自己的邪恶和罪行，他必死在罪恶之中，而你必免于罪责。 20 如果一个义人偏离正道、犯罪作恶，我会使他跌倒，他必死亡。如果你不告诫他，他必死在罪恶之中，他以前的义行也不会被记念，而我要追究你的责任。 21 如果你告诫他不要犯罪，他听了你的告诫不再犯罪，他必保住性命，你也必免于罪责。”
22 在那里，耶和华的手按在我身上，对我说：“你起来前往平原，我要在那里对你说话。” 23 我到了平原，看见耶和华的荣耀停在那里，那荣耀和我在迦巴鲁河边所见的一样，我就俯伏在地。 24 这时灵进入我里面，使我站立起来。耶和华对我说：“你要把自己关在房子里。 25 人子啊，他们必把你捆绑起来，使你不能到百姓当中。 26 同时，我要使你的舌头紧贴上膛，使你不能开口责备他们，因为他们是一群叛逆的人。 27 但当我对你说话的时候，我必开启你的口，你要向他们宣告，‘主耶和华这样说。’肯听的就让他听，不肯听的就由他不听，因为他们是一群叛逆的人。”

Ezekiel 3
Common English Bible
3 Then he said to me: Human one, eat this thing that you’ve found. Eat this scroll and go, speak to the house of Israel. 2 So I opened my mouth, and he fed me the scroll. 3 He said to me: Human one, feed your belly and fill your stomach with this scroll that I give you. So I ate it, and in my mouth it became as sweet as honey.
4 Then he said to me: Human one, go! Go to the house of Israel and speak my words to them. 5 You aren’t being sent to a people whose language and speech are difficult and obscure but to the house of Israel. 6 No, not to many peoples who speak difficult and obscure languages, whose words you wouldn’t understand. If I did send you to them, they would listen to you. 7 But the house of Israel—they will refuse to listen to you because they refuse to listen to me. The whole house of Israel is hardheaded and hard-hearted too. 8 I’ve now hardened your face so that you can meet them head-on. 9 I’ve made your forehead like a diamond, harder than stone. Don’t be afraid of them or shrink away from them, because they are a household of rebels.
10 He said to me: Human one, listen closely, and take to heart every word I say to you. 11 Then go to the exiles, to your people’s children. Whether they listen or not, speak to them and say: The Lord God proclaims!
12 Then a wind lifted me up, and I heard behind me a great quaking sound from his place. Blessed is the Lord’s glory! 13 The sound was the creatures’ wings beating against each other and the sound of the wheels beside them; it was a great rumbling noise. 14 Then the wind picked me up and took me away. With the Lord’s power pressing down against me I went away, bitter and deeply angry, 15 and I came to the exiles who lived beside the Chebar River at Tel-abib. I stayed there among them for seven desolate days.
16 At the end of the seven days, the Lord’s word came to me: 17 Human one, I’ve made you a lookout for the house of Israel. When you hear a word from me, deliver my warning. 18 If I declare that the wicked will die but you don’t warn them, if you say nothing to warn them from their wicked ways so that they might live, they will die because of their guilt, but I will hold you accountable for their deaths. 19 If you do warn the wicked and they don’t turn from their wickedness or their wicked ways, they will die because of their guilt, but you will save your life.
20 Or suppose righteous people turn away from doing the right thing. If they act dishonestly, and I make them stumble because of it, they will die because you didn’t warn them of their sin. Their righteous deeds won’t be remembered, and I will hold you accountable for their deaths. 21 But if you do warn the righteous not to sin, and they don’t sin, they will be declared righteous. Their lives will be preserved because they heeded the warning, and you will save your life.
22 The Lord’s power overcame me, and he said to me: Get up! Go out to the valley, and I’ll speak to you there. 23 So I got up and went out to the valley. Suddenly, the Lord’s glory stood there, like the glory that I had seen at the Chebar River, and I fell on my face. 24 When a wind came to me and stood me on my feet, he spoke to me and said: Go, shut yourself up inside your house. 25 Look at you, human one! They’ve now put cords on you and bound you up so that you can’t go out among them. 26 I’ll make your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth and take away your ability to speak. You won’t be able to correct them, because they are a household of rebels. 27 But whenever I speak to you, I’ll open your mouth, and you will say to them: The Lord God proclaims. Those who hear will understand, but those who refuse will not. They are just a household of rebels.

Ezechiele 3
Conferenza Episcopale Italiana
3 Mi disse: «Figlio dell'uomo, mangia ciò che hai davanti, mangia questo rotolo, poi và e parla alla casa d'Israele». 2 Io aprii la bocca ed egli mi fece mangiare quel rotolo, 3 dicendomi: «Figlio dell'uomo, nutrisci il ventre e riempi le viscere con questo rotolo che ti porgo». Io lo mangiai e fu per la mia bocca dolce come il miele. 4 Poi egli mi disse: «Figlio dell'uomo, và, recati dagli Israeliti e riferisci loro le mie parole, 5 poiché io non ti mando a un popolo dal linguaggio astruso e di lingua barbara, ma agli Israeliti: 6 non a grandi popoli dal linguaggio astruso e di lingua barbara, dei quali tu non comprendi le parole: se a loro ti avessi inviato, ti avrebbero ascoltato; 7 ma gli Israeliti non vogliono ascoltar te, perché non vogliono ascoltar me: tutti gli Israeliti sono di dura cervice e di cuore ostinato. 8 Ecco io ti do una faccia tosta quanto la loro e una fronte dura quanto la loro fronte. 9 Come diamante, più dura della selce ho reso la tua fronte. Non li temere, non impaurirti davanti a loro; sono una genìa di ribelli».
10 Mi disse ancora: «Figlio dell'uomo, tutte le parole che ti dico accoglile nel cuore e ascoltale con gli orecchi: 11 poi và, recati dai deportati, dai figli del tuo popolo, e parla loro. Dirai: Così dice il Signore, ascoltino o non ascoltino».
12 Allora uno spirito mi sollevò e dietro a me udii un grande fragore: «Benedetta la gloria del Signore dal luogo della sua dimora!». 13 Era il rumore delle ali degli esseri viventi che le battevano l'una contro l'altra e contemporaneamente il rumore delle ruote e il rumore di un grande frastuono. 14 Uno spirito dunque mi sollevò e mi portò via; io ritornai triste e con l'animo eccitato, mentre la mano del Signore pesava su di me. 15 Giunsi dai deportati di Tel-Avìv, che abitano lungo il canale Chebàr, dove hanno preso dimora, e rimasi in mezzo a loro sette giorni come stordito.
Il profeta come sentinella
16 Al termine di questi sette giorni mi fu rivolta questa parola del Signore: «Figlio dell'uomo, ti ho posto per sentinella alla casa d'Israele. 17 Quando sentirai dalla mia bocca una parola, tu dovrai avvertirli da parte mia. 18 Se io dico al malvagio: Tu morirai! e tu non lo avverti e non parli perché il malvagio desista dalla sua condotta perversa e viva, egli, il malvagio, morirà per la sua iniquità, ma della sua morte io domanderò conto a te. 19 Ma se tu ammonisci il malvagio ed egli non si allontana dalla sua malvagità e dalla sua perversa condotta, egli morirà per il suo peccato, ma tu ti sarai salvato.
20 Così, se il giusto si allontana dalla sua giustizia e commette l'iniquità, io porrò un ostacolo davanti a lui ed egli morirà; poiché tu non l'avrai avvertito, morirà per il suo peccato e le opere giuste da lui compiute non saranno più ricordate; ma della morte di lui domanderò conto a te. 21 Se tu invece avrai avvertito il giusto di non peccare ed egli non peccherà, egli vivrà, perché è stato avvertito e tu ti sarai salvato».
I. PRIMA DELL'ASSEDIO DI GERUSALEMME
Ezechiele privato della parola
22 Anche là venne sopra di me la mano del Signore ed egli mi disse: «Alzati e và nella valle; là ti voglio parlare». 23 Mi alzai e andai nella valle; ed ecco la gloria del Signore era là, simile alla gloria che avevo vista sul canale Chebàr, e caddi con la faccia a terra. 24 Allora uno spirito entrò in me e mi fece alzare in piedi ed egli mi disse: «Và e rinchiuditi in casa. 25 Ed ecco, figlio dell'uomo, ti saranno messe addosso delle funi, sarai legato e non potrai più uscire in mezzo a loro. 26 Ti farò aderire la lingua al palato e resterai muto; così non sarai più per loro uno che li rimprovera, perché sono una genìa di ribelli. 27 Ma quando poi ti parlerò, ti aprirò la bocca e tu riferirai loro: Dice il Signore Dio: chi vuole ascoltare ascolti e chi non vuole non ascolti; perché sono una genìa di ribelli».

Ezekiel 3
New International Version
3 And he said to me, “Son of man, eat what is before you, eat this scroll; then go and speak to the people of Israel.” 2 So I opened my mouth, and he gave me the scroll to eat.
3 Then he said to me, “Son of man, eat this scroll I am giving you and fill your stomach with it.” So I ate(A) it, and it tasted as sweet as honey(B) in my mouth.
4 He then said to me: “Son of man, go now to the people of Israel and speak my words to them.(C) 5 You are not being sent to a people of obscure speech and strange language,(D) but to the people of Israel— 6 not to many peoples of obscure speech and strange language, whose words you cannot understand. Surely if I had sent you to them, they would have listened to you.(E) 7 But the people of Israel are not willing to listen(F) to you because they are not willing to listen to me, for all the Israelites are hardened and obstinate.(G) 8 But I will make you as unyielding and hardened as they are.(H) 9 I will make your forehead(I) like the hardest stone, harder than flint.(J) Do not be afraid of them or terrified by them, though they are a rebellious people.(K)”
10 And he said to me, “Son of man, listen carefully and take to heart(L) all the words I speak to you. 11 Go(M) now to your people in exile and speak to them. Say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says,’(N) whether they listen or fail to listen.(O)”
12 Then the Spirit lifted me up,(P) and I heard behind me a loud rumbling sound as the glory of the Lord rose from the place where it was standing.[a] 13 It was the sound of the wings of the living creatures(Q) brushing against each other and the sound of the wheels beside them, a loud rumbling sound.(R) 14 The Spirit(S) then lifted me up(T) and took me away, and I went in bitterness and in the anger of my spirit, with the strong hand of the Lord(U) on me. 15 I came to the exiles who lived at Tel Aviv near the Kebar River.(V) And there, where they were living, I sat among them for seven days(W)—deeply distressed.
Ezekiel’s Task as Watchman
16 At the end of seven days the word of the Lord came to me:(X) 17 “Son of man, I have made you a watchman(Y) for the people of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me.(Z) 18 When I say to a wicked person, ‘You will surely die,(AA)’ and you do not warn them or speak out to dissuade them from their evil ways in order to save their life, that wicked person will die for[b] their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.(AB) 19 But if you do warn the wicked person and they do not turn(AC) from their wickedness(AD) or from their evil ways, they will die(AE) for their sin; but you will have saved yourself.(AF)
20 “Again, when a righteous person turns(AG) from their righteousness and does evil, and I put a stumbling block(AH) before them, they will die. Since you did not warn them, they will die for their sin. The righteous things that person did will not be remembered, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.(AI) 21 But if you do warn the righteous person not to sin and they do not sin, they will surely live because they took warning, and you will have saved yourself.(AJ)”
22 The hand of the Lord(AK) was on me there, and he said to me, “Get up and go(AL) out to the plain,(AM) and there I will speak to you.” 23 So I got up and went out to the plain. And the glory of the Lord was standing there, like the glory I had seen by the Kebar River,(AN) and I fell facedown.(AO)
24 Then the Spirit came into me and raised me(AP) to my feet. He spoke to me and said: “Go, shut yourself inside your house.(AQ) 25 And you, son of man, they will tie with ropes; you will be bound so that you cannot go out among the people.(AR) 26 I will make your tongue stick to the roof(AS) of your mouth so that you will be silent and unable to rebuke them, for they are a rebellious people.(AT) 27 But when I speak to you, I will open your mouth and you shall say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says.’(AU) Whoever will listen let them listen, and whoever will refuse let them refuse; for they are a rebellious people.(AV)
