Ezekiel, 15

1. And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

1. La parole de l`Éternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:

2. “Son of man, what can be made from the stalk of a vine, compared to all the plants of the woods that are among the trees of the forests?

2. Fils de l`homme, le bois de la vigne, qu`a-t-il de plus que tout autre bois, Le sarment qui est parmi les arbres de la forêt?

3. Can any wood be taken from it, so that it may be made into a work, or formed into a peg so as to hang some kind of vessel upon it?

3. Prend-on de ce bois pour fabriquer un ouvrage? En tire-t-on une cheville pour y suspendre un objet quelconque?

4. Behold, it is used in the fire as fuel. The fire consumes both its ends; and its middle is reduced to ashes. So how can it be useful for any work?

4. Voici, on le met au feu pour le consumer; Le feu en consume les deux bouts, et le milieu brûle: Sera-t-il bon à quelque chose?

5. Even when it was whole, it was unsuitable for a work. How much more so, when fire has devoured it and burned it up, will nothing of it be useful?

5. Voici, lorsqu`il était entier, on n`en faisait aucun ouvrage; Combien moins, lorsque le feu l`a consumé et qu`il est brûlé, En pourra-t-on faire quelque ouvrage?

6. Therefore, thus says the Lord God: Like the stalk of the vine among the trees of the forests, which I have given to be devoured by fire, so will I deliver the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

6. C`est pourquoi ainsi parle le Seigneur, l`Éternel: Comme le bois de la vigne parmi les arbres de la forêt, Ce bois que je livre au feu pour le consumer, Ainsi je livrerai les habitants de Jérusalem.

7. And I will set my face against them. They will go away from fire, and yet fire will consume them. And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have set my face against them,

7. Je tournerai ma face contre eux; Ils sont sortis du feu, et le feu les consumera. Et vous saurez que je suis l`Éternel, Quand je tournerai ma face contre eux.

8. and when I will have made their land impassable and desolate. For they have stood forth as transgressors, says the Lord God.”

8. Je ferai du pays un désert, Parce qu`ils ont été infidèles, Dit le Seigneur, l`Éternel.

Versi relativi a Ezekiel, 15:

Ezekiel 15 compares the city of Jerusalem to a useless vine and warns of God's judgment. The verses chosen in order of proximity to the theme of the chapter are:

John 15:5: "I am the vine; you are the sticks. Who remains in me and me in him, gives a lot of fruit; for without me you can do it." Jesus uses the vine metaphor to teach that believers need to remain in it to bear fruit. Just as the vine needs support to grow, believers need Jesus to bear fruit that remains.

Matthew 7:19: "Every tree that does not produce good fruit is cut and thrown into fire." Jesus talks about the importance of producing good fruits and warns that any tree that does not produce good fruits will be cut and burned, similar to Ezekiel's useless vine.

John 15:1-2: "I am the true vine, and my father is the farmer. Every branch that, being in me, does not bear fruit, he cuts him; and all that gives the clean fruit, so that he produces more fruit yet." Jesus teaches that God is the farmer and He is the true vine. He also states that any branch that gives no fruit is cut, as is the useless vine of Ezekiel 15.

Matthew 3:10: "And the ax is already put to the root of the trees; the whole tree, for, which does not produce good fruit, is cut and thrown into fire." John the Baptist warns people to produce good fruits and states that any tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut and thrown into fire, similar to the judgment described in Ezekiel 15.

Luke 13:6-9: "Also said this parable: a man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and going to the fruit of it, he did not find any. He said to the vineyard: behold, I have been looking for fruit for three years in this fig tree, and I don't think any. Cut it; why the earth is still in use? He answered him: Lord, leave it this year, until I fall around it and put it fertilizer; if it fruit next season, too much Well; if not, you will cut her. " This parable of Jesus talks about the importance of giving fruit and the patience of God. The man who owned the fig tree was about to cut it, but the vineyard asked for a time to fertilize and try to make it bear fruit, as well as the judgment described in Ezekiel 15.
