Ezekiel 158 verses, each with its tree and pragmatics: Hebrew, Aramaic (Targum Jonathan) and English (JPS 1917), the English sentence by sentence.15:1וַיְהִי דְבַר־יְהוָה אֵלַי לֵאמֹֽר׃And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying:15:2בֶּן־אָדָם מַה־יִּֽהְיֶה עֵץ־הַגֶּפֶן מִכָּל־עֵץ הַזְּמוֹרָה אֲשֶׁר הָיָה בַּעֲצֵי הַיָּֽעַר׃'Son of man, what is the vine-tree more than any tree, the vine branch which grew up among the trees of the forest?15:3הֲיֻקַּח מִמֶּנּוּ עֵץ לַעֲשׂוֹת לִמְלָאכָה אִם־יִקְחוּ מִמֶּנּוּ יָתֵד לִתְלוֹת עָלָיו כָּל־כֶּֽלִי׃Shall wood be taken thereof to make any work? or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?15:4הִנֵּה לָאֵשׁ נִתַּן לְאָכְלָה אֵת שְׁנֵי קְצוֹתָיו אָכְלָה הָאֵשׁ וְתוֹכוֹ נָחָר הֲיִצְלַח לִמְלָאכָֽה׃Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire hath devoured both the ends of it, and the midst of it is singed; is it profitable for any work?15:5הִנֵּה בִּֽהְיוֹתוֹ תָמִים לֹא יֵֽעָשֶׂה לִמְלָאכָה אַף כִּי־אֵשׁ אֲכָלַתְהוּ וַיֵּחָר וְנַעֲשָׂה עוֹד לִמְלָאכָֽה׃סBehold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work; how much less, when the fire hath devoured it, and it is singed, shall it yet be meet for any work?15:6לָכֵן כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה כַּאֲשֶׁר עֵץ־הַגֶּפֶן בְּעֵץ הַיַּעַר אֲשֶׁר־נְתַתִּיו לָאֵשׁ לְאָכְלָה כֵּן נָתַתִּי אֶת־יֹשְׁבֵי יְרוּשָׁלִָֽם׃Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: As the vine-tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so do I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.15:7וְנָתַתִּי אֶת־פָּנַי בָּהֶם מֵהָאֵשׁ יָצָאוּ וְהָאֵשׁ תֹּֽאכְלֵם וִֽידַעְתֶּם כִּֽי־אֲנִי יְהוָה בְּשׂוּמִי אֶת־פָּנַי בָּהֶֽם׃And I will set My face against them; out of the fire are they come forth, and the fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I set My face against them.15:8וְנָתַתִּי אֶת־הָאָרֶץ שְׁמָמָה יַעַן מָעֲלוּ מַעַל נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יְהוִֽה׃פAnd I will make the land desolate, because they have acted treacherously, saith the Lord GOD.'← previousEzekiel 14next →Ezekiel 16↑ back to EzekielThis page in Markdown → https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/EZK/15/
