1 LA parola del Signore mi fu ancora indirizzata, dicendo:

2 E tu, figliuol d’uomo, non giudicherai tu, non giudicherai tu la città di sangue, e non le farai tu conoscere tutte le sue abbominazioni? Di’ adunque:

3 Così ha detto il Signore Iddio: Il tempo della città che spande il sangue dentro di sè, e che fa degl’idoli contro a sè stessa, per contaminarsi, viene.

4 Tu ti sei resa colpevole per lo tuo sangue, che tu hai sparso; e ti sei contaminata per li tuoi idoli, che tu hai fatti; ed hai fatti avvicinare i tuoi giorni, e sei giunta alla fine de’ tuoi anni; perciò, ti ho messa in vituperio appo le nazioni, e in derizione appo tutti i paesi.

5 I paesi che son vicini, e quelli che son lontani di te, si faran beffe di te, o tu contaminata di fama, grande in ruina.

6 Ecco, i principi d’Israele, dentro di te, si son dati a spandere il sangue, ciascuno secondo il suo potere.

7 Si è sprezzato in te padre, e madre; si è usata storsione contra il forestiere in mezzo di te; si è oppressato in te l’orfano, e la vedova.

8 Tu hai sprezzate le mie cose sante, ed hai profanati i miei sabati.

9 Uomini sparlatori, e calunniatori sono stati in mezzo di te, per ispandere il sangue; e si è mangiato in te sopra i monti; si son commesse scelleratezze in mezzo di te.

10 Le vergogne del padre si sono scoperte in te; si è sforzata in te la donna appartata per la sua immondizia.

11 L’uno ha commessa abbominazione con la moglie del suo prossimo; l’altro ha contaminata la sua nuora con iscelleratezza; e l’altro ha violata la sua sorella, figliuola di suo padre, dentro di te.

12 Si son presi presenti in te, per ispandere il sangue; tu hai presa usura, e vantaggio, ed hai frodati i tuoi prossimi con oppressione, e mi hai dimenticato, dice il Signore Iddio.

13 Laonde ecco, io mi son battuto a palme, per la tua avarizia, che hai usata; e per lo tuo sangue che è stato in mezzo di te.

14 Potrà il cuor tuo esser fermo, o le tue mani esser forti al tempo che io opererò contro a te? Io, il Signore, ho parlato, ed altresì opererò.

15 E ti dispergerò fra le nazioni, io ti sventolerò per i paesi, e farò venir meno in te la tua immondizia.

16 E tu sarai profanata dentro di te, nel cospetto delle nazioni; e conoscerai che io sono il Signore.

17 La parola del Signore mi fu ancora indirizzata, dicendo:

18 Figliuol d’uomo, la casa d’Israele mi è divenuta schiuma; tutti quanti son rame, e stagno, e ferro, e piombo, in mezzo d’un fornello; son divenuti schiuma d’argento.

19 Perciò, così ha detto il Signore Iddio: Perciocchè voi tutti siete divenuti schiume, però, ecco, io vi raduno in mezzo di Gerusalemme.

20 Come si raduna l’argento, e il rame, e il ferro, e il piombo, e lo stagno, in mezzo d’un fornello, per soffiarvi su il fuoco per fonder quelle cose: così vi raccorrò nella mia ira, e nel mio cruccio, e vi porrò quivi, e vi struggerò.

21 Così vi radunerò, e soffierò sopra voi nel fuoco della mia indegnazione; e voi sarete strutti in mezzo di quella.

22 Come l’argento si strugge nel fornello, così sarete strutti in mezzo di quella; e voi conoscerete che io, il Signore, avrò versata l’ira mia sopra voi.

23 La parola del Signore mi fu ancora indirizzata, dicendo:

24 Figliuol d’uomo, dille: Tu sei un paese che non sei stato nettato, che non sei stato bagnato d’alcuna pioggia nel giorno del cruccio.

25 Vi è una cospirazione de’ suoi profeti in mezzo di lei; han divorate le anime come un leone ruggente, che rapisce la preda; han tolte le facoltà, e le cose preziose; han moltiplicate le vedove in mezzo di essa.

26 I suoi sacerdoti han violata la mia Legge, ed han profanate le mie cose sante; non han posta differenza tra la cosa santa, e la profana, e non hanno insegnato a discerner tra la cosa monda, e l’immonda; e si sono turati gli occhi, per non prender guardia a’ miei sabati, ed io sono stato profanato nel mezzo di loro.

27 I suoi principi sono stati dentro di essa come lupi che rapiscono la preda, spandendo il sangue, e distruggendo le anime, per saziar la loro avarizia.

28 E i suoi profeti han fatto loro uno smalto mal tegnente; hanno avute visioni di vanità, ed hanno loro indovinata menzogna, dicendo: Così ha detto il Signore Iddio; benchè il Signore non avesse parlato.

29 Il popolo del paese ha fatte delle storsioni, e rapine, ed han fatta violenza al povero, ed al bisognoso; hanno oppressato il forestiere, senza che gli si sia fatta ragione.

30 Ed io ho cercato d’infra loro alcuno che facesse alcun riparo; e che si presentasse davanti a me alla rottura, per lo paese; acciocchè io non lo desertassi; ma non ne ho trovato alcuno.

31 Perciò, io spanderò sopra loro l’ira mia; io li consumerò col fuoco della mia indegnazione; io renderò loro la lor via in sul capo, dice il Signore Iddio.

   


To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.

Daughters

  

In Genesis 19:8, they signify the affections of good and truth, and the blessedness perceivable from the enjoyment thereof by people who do not violate the divine and holy principle of the Lord.

Genesis第19章

1 The two angels came to Sodom at evening. Lot sat in the gate of Sodom. Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them. He bowed himself with his face to the earth,

2 and he said, "See now, my lords, please turn aside into your servant's house, stay all night, wash your feet, and you can rise up early, and go on your way." They said, "No, but we will stay in the street all night."

3 He urged them greatly, and they came in with him, and entered into his house. He made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.

4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, surrounded the house, both young and old, all the people from every quarter.

5 They called to Lot, and said to him, "Where are the men who came in to you this night? Bring them out to us, that we may have sex with them."

6 Lot went out to them to the door, and shut the door after him.

7 He said, "Please, my brothers, don't act so wickedly.

8 See now, I have two virgin daughters. Please let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them what seems good to you. Only don't do anything to these men, because they have come under the shadow of my roof."

9 They said, "Stand back!" Then they said, "This one fellow came in to live as a foreigner, and he appoints himself a judge. Now will we deal worse with you, than with them!" They pressed hard on the man Lot, and drew near to break the door.

10 But the men put forth their hand, and brought Lot into the house to them, and shut the door.

11 They struck the men who were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they wearied themselves to find the door.

12 The men said to Lot, "Do you have anybody else here? Sons-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whoever you have in the city, bring them out of the place:

13 for we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before Yahweh that Yahweh has sent us to destroy it."

14 Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were pledged to marry his daughters, and said, "Get up! Get out of this place, for Yahweh will destroy the city." But he seemed to his sons-in-law to be joking.

15 When the morning came, then the angels hurried Lot, saying, "Get up! Take your wife, and your two daughters who are here, lest you be consumed in the iniquity of the city."

16 But he lingered; and the men grabbed his hand, his wife's hand, and his two daughters' hands, Yahweh being merciful to him; and they took him out, and set him outside of the city.

17 It came to pass, when they had taken them out, that he said, "Escape for your life! Don't look behind you, and don't stay anywhere in the plain. Escape to the mountains, lest you be consumed!"

18 Lot said to them, "Oh, not so, my lord.

19 See now, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have magnified your loving kindness, which you have shown to me in saving my life. I can't escape to the mountain, lest evil overtake me, and I die.

20 See now, this city is near to flee to, and it is a little one. Oh let me escape there (isn't it a little one?), and my soul will live."

21 He said to him, "Behold, I have granted your request concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which you have spoken.

22 Hurry, escape there, for I can't do anything until you get there." Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.

23 The sun had risen on the earth when Lot came to Zoar.

24 Then Yahweh rained on Sodom and on Gomorrah sulfur and fire from Yahweh out of the sky.

25 He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew on the ground.

26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

27 Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before Yahweh.

28 He looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and looked, and saw that the smoke of the land went up as the smoke of a furnace.

29 It happened, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the middle of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot lived.

30 Lot went up out of Zoar, and lived in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he was afraid to live in Zoar. He lived in a cave with his two daughters.

31 The firstborn said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in to us in the way of all the earth.

32 Come, let's make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve our father's seed."

33 They made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father. He didn't know when she lay down, nor when she arose.

34 It came to pass on the next day, that the firstborn said to the younger, "Behold, I lay last night with my father. Let us make him drink wine again, tonight. You go in, and lie with him, that we may preserve our father's seed."

35 They made their father drink wine that night also. The younger went and lay with him. He didn't know when she lay down, nor when she got up.

36 Thus both of Lot's daughters were with child by their father.

37 The firstborn bore a son, and named him Moab. He is the father of the Moabites to this day.

38 The younger also bore a son, and called his name Ben Ammi. He is the father of the children of Ammon to this day.
