Castigo de los gobernantes
11 Entonces el Espíritu me levantó y me llevó a la puerta oriental de la casa del Señor que mira al oriente(A). Y he aquí, a la entrada de la puerta había veinticinco hombres, y entre ellos vi a Jaazanías, hijo de Azur, y a Pelatías, hijo de Benaía(B), jefes del pueblo. 2 Y Él me dijo: Hijo de hombre, estos son los hombres que maquinan iniquidad y dan malos consejos en esta ciudad(C), 3 los cuales dicen: «¿No está cerca el tiempo[a] de edificar casas? Esta ciudad es la olla y nosotros la carne(D)». 4 Por tanto, profetiza contra ellos, profetiza, hijo de hombre(E).
5 Entonces el Espíritu del Señor cayó sobre mí, y me dijo: Di: «Así dice el Señor: “Así habéis dicho, casa de Israel, yo conozco vuestros pensamientos[b](F). 6 Habéis multiplicado vuestros muertos en esta ciudad, habéis llenado sus calles de muertos(G)”. 7 Por tanto, así dice el Señor Dios[c]: “Vuestros muertos, los que habéis dejado en medio de la ciudad[d], son la carne, y ella es la olla(H); pero yo os sacaré[e] de ella(I). 8 Habéis temido la espada, y espada traeré sobre vosotros(J)” —declara el Señor Dios. 9 “Y os sacaré de en medio de la ciudad[f], os entregaré en manos de extraños(K) y traeré juicios contra vosotros(L). 10 A espada caeréis(M); en los confines de Israel os juzgaré; y sabréis que yo soy el Señor(N). 11 Esta ciudad no será olla para vosotros, ni vosotros seréis carne en medio de ella(O); hacia los confines de Israel os juzgaré. 12 Y sabréis que yo soy el Señor; porque no habéis andado en mis estatutos ni habéis ejecutado mis ordenanzas(P), sino que habéis obrado conforme a las costumbres de las naciones que os rodean(Q)”».
13 Y sucedió que mientras yo profetizaba, Pelatías, hijo de Benaía(R), murió. Entonces caí sobre mi rostro, y clamé a gran voz y dije: ¡Ah, Señor Dios! ¿Vas a acabar por completo con el remanente de Israel(S)?
14 Entonces vino a mí la palabra del Señor, diciendo: 15 Hijo de hombre, tus hermanos, tus parientes[g], los hombres en el destierro contigo[h] y toda la casa de Israel, todos ellos, son aquellos a quienes los habitantes de Jerusalén han dicho: «Alejaos del Señor; a nosotros se nos ha dado esta tierra en posesión(T)». 16 Por tanto, di: «Así dice el Señor Dios: “Aunque yo los había echado lejos entre las naciones, y aunque yo los había dispersado por las tierras, sin embargo fui para ellos un santuario(U) por poco tiempo en las tierras adonde habían ido”». 17 Por tanto di: «Así dice el Señor Dios: “Yo os recogeré de entre los pueblos y os reuniré de las tierras entre las cuales habéis sido dispersados, y os daré la tierra de Israel(V)”». 18 Cuando lleguen allí, quitarán de ella todas sus cosas detestables y todas sus abominaciones(W). 19 Yo les daré un solo corazón y pondré un espíritu nuevo dentro de ellos[i]. Y quitaré de su carne el corazón de piedra(X) y les daré un corazón de carne(Y), 20 para que anden en mis estatutos, guarden mis ordenanzas(Z) y los cumplan. Entonces serán mi pueblo y yo seré su Dios(AA). 21 Pero en cuanto a aquellos cuyo corazón va detrás de sus cosas detestables y abominaciones[j](AB), haré recaer su conducta sobre su cabeza —declara el Señor Dios(AC).
22 Entonces los querubines alzaron sus alas con las ruedas a su lado(AD), y la gloria del Dios de Israel estaba por encima, sobre ellos(AE). 23 La gloria del Señor se elevó de en medio de la ciudad(AF), y se detuvo sobre el monte que está al oriente de la ciudad(AG). 24 Y el Espíritu me levantó(AH) y me llevó a Caldea[k], a los desterrados, en visión por el Espíritu de Dios. Y se alejó[l] de mí la visión que había visto(AI). 25 Entonces hablé a los desterrados de todas las cosas que el Señor me había mostrado(AJ).

Juicio contra los líderes de Israel
11 El Espíritu me levantó y me llevó hasta la entrada oriental del Templo del Señor. A la entrada vi a veinticinco hombres, entre los cuales estaban Jazanías, hijo de Azur, y Pelatías, hijo de Benaías, que eran líderes del pueblo. 2 El Señor me dijo: «Hijo de hombre, estos son los que están tramando maldades y dando malos consejos en esta ciudad. 3 Dicen: “Todavía no es el momento de reconstruir las casas. La ciudad es la olla y nosotros somos la carne”. 4 Por eso, hijo de hombre, profetiza contra ellos; ¡sí, profetiza!».
5 El Espíritu del Señor vino sobre mí y me ordenó proclamar: «Así dice el Señor: “Ustedes, pueblo de Israel, han dicho esto y yo conozco sus pensamientos. 6 Han matado a mucha gente en esta ciudad y han llenado las calles de cadáveres.
7 »”Por eso yo, el Señor y Dios, les digo: Los cadáveres que ustedes han arrojado son la carne y la ciudad es la olla, pero yo los sacaré de ahí. 8 ¿Temen a la espada? Pues bien, yo, el Señor y Dios, declaro que con espadas iré contra ustedes. 9 Los sacaré de la ciudad, los entregaré en manos de extranjeros y los juzgaré con justicia. 10 Morirán a filo de espada; yo los juzgaré en las mismas fronteras de Israel y así sabrán que yo soy el Señor. 11 La ciudad no les servirá de olla ni serán ustedes la carne dentro de ella. Yo los juzgaré en la frontera misma de Israel. 12 Entonces sabrán que yo soy el Señor. No han seguido mis estatutos ni han cumplido con mis leyes, sino que han adoptado las costumbres de las naciones que los rodean”».
13 Mientras yo profetizaba, Pelatías, hijo de Benaías, cayó muerto. Entonces caí rostro en tierra y clamé a gritos: «¡Ay, mi Señor y Dios! ¿Vas a exterminar al remanente de Israel?».
14 La palabra del Señor vino a mí y me dijo: 15 «Hijo de hombre, esto es lo que dicen los habitantes de Jerusalén en cuanto a tus hermanos, tus parientes y todo el pueblo de Israel: “Ellos se han alejado del Señor, y por eso se nos ha dado esta tierra en posesión”.
16 »Por tanto, adviérteles que así dice el Señor y Dios: “Aunque los desterré a naciones lejanas y los dispersé por países extraños, por un tiempo les he servido de santuario en las tierras adonde han ido”.
17 »Adviérteles también que así dice el Señor y Dios: “Yo los reuniré de entre las naciones; los juntaré de los países donde han estado dispersos y les daré la tierra de Israel.
18 »”Ellos volverán a su tierra y echarán de allí a los ídolos detestables y pondrán fin a todas las abominaciones. 19 Yo les daré un corazón sincero y pondré en ellos un espíritu renovado. Les arrancaré el corazón de piedra que ahora tienen y pondré en ellos un corazón de carne, 20 para que cumplan mis estatutos y pongan en práctica mis leyes. Entonces ellos serán mi pueblo, y yo seré su Dios. 21 Pero a los que van tras esos ídolos detestables y siguen prácticas abominables, yo les pediré cuentas de su conducta”», afirma el Señor y Dios.
La gloria del Señor abandona Jerusalén
22 Los querubines desplegaron sus alas. Las ruedas estaban junto a ellos y la gloria del Dios de Israel estaba por encima de ellos. 23 La gloria del Señor se elevó de en medio de la ciudad y se detuvo sobre la montaña que está al oriente de Jerusalén. 24 En una visión, el Espíritu me levantó y me trasladó hasta donde estaban los exiliados en Babilonia;[a] y la visión terminó. 25 Entonces comuniqué a los exiliados todo lo que el Señor me había revelado.

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)

11 Moreover the spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of the Lord's house, which looketh eastward: and behold at the door of the gate five and twenty men; among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
2 Then said he unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city:
3 Which say, It is not near; let us build houses: this city is the caldron, and we be the flesh.
4 Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man.
5 And the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the Lord; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, every one of them.
6 Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain.
7 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Your slain whom ye have laid in the midst of it, they are the flesh, and this city is the caldron: but I will bring you forth out of the midst of it.
8 Ye have feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the Lord God.
9 And I will bring you out of the midst thereof, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
10 Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
11 This city shall not be your caldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst thereof; but I will judge you in the border of Israel:
12 And ye shall know that I am the Lord: for ye have not walked in my statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after the manners of the heathen that are round about you.
13 And it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah Lord God! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?
14 Again the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
15 Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel wholly, are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Get you far from the Lord: unto us is this land given in possession.
16 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God; Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall come.
17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God; I will even gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the detestable things thereof and all the abominations thereof from thence.
19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
20 That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
21 But as for them whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Lord God.
22 Then did the cherubims lift up their wings, and the wheels beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them above.
23 And the glory of the Lord went up from the midst of the city, and stood upon the mountain which is on the east side of the city.
24 Afterwards the spirit took me up, and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.
25 Then I spake unto them of the captivity all the things that the Lord had shewed me.

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.
