Prophetia Ezechielis

Ezekiel

1

Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:

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

Et facto es sermone de Domino ad me, dicente:

2

Fili hominis, pone faciem tuam ad Jerusalem, et stilla ad sanctuaria, et propheta contra humum Israël.

Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and let thy speech flow towards the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel:

Filio de homine, pone facie tuo ad Ierusalem, et stilla ad sanctuario, et propheta contra humo Israële.

3

Et dices terræ Israël: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ad te, et ejiciam gladium meum de vagina sua, et occidam in te justum et impium.

And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I come against thee, and I will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off in thee the just, and the wicked.

Et dic de terra Israële: Domino Deo dic hoc: ecce me ad te, et eiice gladio meo de vagina suo, et occide in te iusto et impio.

4

Pro eo autem quod occidi in te justum et impium, idcirco egredietur gladius meus de vagina sua ad omnem carnem, ab austro usque ad aquilonem:

And forasmuch as I have cut off in thee the just and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh, from the south even to the north.

Pro eo autem quod occide in te iusto et impio, ergo gladio meo egredior de vagina suo ad omni carne, ab austro usque ad aquilone:

5

ut sciat omnis caro quia ego Dominus, eduxi gladium meum de vagina sua irrevocabilem.

That all flesh may know that I the Lord have drawn my sword out of its sheath not to be turned back.

Ut omni carne sci quia me Domino, educe gladio meo de vagina suo irrevocabile.

6

Et tu, fili hominis, ingemisce in contritione lumborum, et in amaritudinibus ingemisce coram eis.

And thou, son of man, mourn with the breaking of thy loins, and with bitterness sigh before them.

Et te, filio de homine, ingemisce in contritione de lumbos, et in amaritudines ingemisce coram illos.

7

Cumque dixerint ad te: Quare tu gemis? dices: Pro auditu: quia venit, et tabescet omne cor, et dissolventur universæ manus, et infirmabitur omnis spiritus, et per cuncta genua fluent aquæ: ecce venit, et fiet, ait Dominus Deus.

And when they shall say to thee: Why mournest thou? thou shalt say: For that which I hear: because it cometh, and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be made feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and water shall run down every knee: behold it cometh, and it shall be done, saith the Lord God.

Cumque dic ad te: quare te geme? Dic: pro auditu: quia veni, et omni corde tabesce, et universa manus dissolve, et omni spiritu infirma, et per cuncta genus flue de aqua: ecce veni, et i fi, Domino Deo dic.

8

Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:

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

Et facto es sermone de Domino ad me, dicente:

9

Fili hominis, propheta, et dices: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: loquere: Gladius, gladius exacutus est, et limatus:

Son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord God: Say: The sword, the sword is sharpened, and furbished.

Filio de homine, propheta, et dic: Domino Deo dic hoc: loque: gladio, gladio exacuscor es, et lima:

10

ut cædat victimas, exacutus est: ut splendeat, limatus est: qui moves sceptrum filii mei, succidisti omne lignum.

It is sharpened to kill victims: it is furbished that it may glitter: thou removest the sceptre of my son, thou hast cut down every tree.

Ut caede victimas, exacuscor es: ut splende, lima es: qui move sceptro de filio meo, succide omni ligno.

11

Et dedi eum ad levigandum, ut teneatur manu: iste exacutus est gladius, et iste limatus est, ut sit in manu interficientis.

And I have given it to be furbished, that it may be handled: this sword is sharpened, and it is furbished, that it may be in the hand of the slayer.

Et da illo ad leviga, ut tene manu: isto exacuscor es gladio, et isto lima es, ut es in manu interfice.

12

Clama et ulula, fili hominis, quia hic factus est in populo meo, hic in cunctis ducibus Israël qui fugerant: gladio traditi sunt cum populo meo: idcirco plaude super femur,

Cry, and howl, O son of man, for this sword is upon my people, it is upon all the princes of Israel, that are fled: they are delivered up to the sword with my people, strike therefore upon thy thigh,

Clama et ululo, filio de homine, quia hoc facto es in populo meo, hoc in cuncta duces Israële qui fuge: gladio trade es cum populo meo: ergo plaude super femore,

13

quia probatus est: et hoc, cum sceptrum subverterit, et non erit, dicit Dominus Deus.

Because it is tried: and that when it shall overthrow the sceptre, and it shall not be, saith the Lord God.

Quia proba es: et hoc, cum sceptro subverte, et non es, Domino Deo dic.

14

Tu ergo, fili hominis, propheta, et percute manu ad manum: et duplicetur gladius, ac triplicetur gladius interfectorum: hic est gladius occisionis magnæ, qui obstupescere eos facit

Thou therefore, O son of man, prophesy, and strike thy hands together, and let the sword be doubled, and let the sword of the slain be tripled: this is the sword of a great slaughter, that maketh them stand amazed,

Te ergo, filio de homine, propheta, et percute manu ad manu: et gladio duplice, et gladio interfice triplica: hoc es gladio de occisione magna, qui obstupesce fac illos

15

et corde tabescere, et multiplicat ruinas. In omnibus portis eorum dedi conturbationem gladii acuti, et limati ad fulgendum, amicti ad cædem.

And languish in heart, and that multiplieth ruins. In all their gates I have set the dread of the sharp sword, the sword that is furbished to glitter, that is made ready for slaughter.

Et corde tabesce, et multiplica ruinas. In omni portas de illos da conturbatione de gladio acuta, et lima ad fulge, amicie ad caede.

16

Exacuere, vade ad dexteram sive ad sinistram, quocumque faciei tuæ est appetitus.

Be thou sharpened, go to the right hand, or to the left, which way soever thou hast a mind to set thy face.

Exacue, vade ad dextera sive ad sinistra, quocumque de facie tuo es appetitu.

17

Quin et ego plaudam manu ad manum, et implebo indignationem meam: ego Dominus locutus sum.

And I will clap my hands together, and will satisfy my indignation: I the Lord have spoken.

Quin et me plaude manu ad manu, et imple indignatione meo: me Domino locuto es.

18

Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:

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

Et facto es sermone de Domino ad me, dicente:

19

Et tu, fili hominis, pone tibi duas vias, ut veniat gladius regis Babylonis: de terra una egredientur ambæ: et manu capiet conjecturam; in capite viæ civitatis conjiciet.

And thou son of man, set thee two ways, for the sword of the king of Babylon to come: both shall come forth out of one land: and with his hand he shall draw lots, he shall consult at the head of the way of the city.

Et te, filio de homine, pone ad te duo via, ut gladio de rege de Babylone que veni: de terra uno ambo egredior: et manu cape coniectura; in capite de via de civitate coniice.

20

Viam pones ut veniat gladius ad Rabbath filiorum Ammon, et ad Judam in Jerusalem munitissimam.

Thou shalt make a way that the sword may come to Rabbath of the children of Ammon, and to Juda unto Jerusalem the strong city.

Via pone ut gladio que veni ad Rabbath de filios Ammone, et ad Iudase in Ierusalem munito.

21

Stetit enim rex Babylonis in bivio, in capite duarum viarum, divinationem quærens, commiscens sagittas: interrogavit idola, exta consuluit.

For the king of Babylon stood in the highway, at the head of two ways, seeking divination, shuffling arrows: he inquired of the idols, and consulted entrails.

Rege nam de Babylone sta in bivio, in capite duo de via, divinatione quaere, commisce sagittates: interroga idolas, extos consule.

22

Ad dexteram ejus facta est divinatio super Jerusalem, ut ponat arietes, ut aperiat os in cæde, ut elevet vocem in ululatu, ut ponat arietes contra portas, ut comportet aggerem, ut ædificet munitiones.

On his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in slaughter, to lift up the voice in howling, to set engines against the gates, to cast up a mount, to build forts.

Ad dextera de illo facto es divinatione super Ierusalem, ut pone arietes, ut aperi ore in caede, ut ele voce in ululatu, ut pone arietes contra portas, ut comporta aggere, ut aedifica munitiones.

23

Eritque quasi consulens frustra oraculum in oculis eorum, et sabbatorum otium imitans: ipse autem recordabitur iniquitatis ad capiendum.

And he shall be in their eyes as one consulting the oracle in vain, and imitating the leisure of sabbaths: but he will call to remembrance the iniquity that they may be taken.

Et es quasi consule frustra oraculo in oculos de illos, et de sabbatos otio imita: ipso autem recordor de iniquitate ad cape.

24

Idcirco hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod recordati estis iniquitatis vestræ, et revelastis prævaricationes vestras, et apparuerunt peccata vestra in omnibus cogitationibus vestris, pro eo, inquam, quod recordati estis, manu capiemini.

Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because you have remembered your iniquity, and have discovered your prevarications, and your sins have appeared in all your devices: because, I say, You have remembered, you shall be taken with the hand.

Ergo Domino Deo dic hoc: pro eo quod recordor es de iniquitate vestro, et revela praevaricationes vestro, et peccatos vestro appare in omni cogitationes vestro, pro eo, dic, quod recordor es, manu cape.

25

Tu autem, profane, impie dux Israël, cujus venit dies in tempore iniquitatis præfinita:

But thou profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come that hath been appointed in the time of iniquity:

Te autem, profane, impie duce Israële, de que veni die in tempore de iniquitate praefinie:

26

hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Aufer cidarim, tolle coronam: nonne hæc est quæ humilem sublevavit, et sublimem humiliavit?

Thus saith the Lord God: Remove the diadem, take off the crown: is it not this that hath exalted the low one, and brought down him that was high?

Domino Deo dic hoc: aufer cidaremse, tolle corona: nonne hoc es que subleva humili, et sublime humilia?

27

Iniquitatem, iniquitatem, iniquitatem ponam eam: et hoc non factum est, donec veniret cujus est judicium, et tradam ei.

I will shew it to be iniquity, iniquity, iniquity: but this was not done till he came to whom judgment belongeth, and I will give it him.

Iniquitate, iniquitate, iniquitate pone illa: et hoc non facto es, usque que de que es iudicio veni, et trade ad illo.

28

Et tu, fili hominis, propheta, et dic: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus ad filios Ammon, et ad opprobrium eorum: et dices: Mucro, mucro, evaginate ad occidendum: limate ut interficias et fulgeas:

And thou son of man, prophesy, and say: Thus saith the Lord God concerning the children of Ammon, and concerning their reproach, and thou shalt say: O sword, O sword, come out of the scabbard to kill, be furbished to destroy, and to glitter,

Et te, filio de homine, propheta, et dic: Domino Deo dic hoc ad filios Ammone, et ad opprobrio de illos: et dic: mucro, muco, evagina ad occide: lima ut interfice et fulge:

29

cum tibi viderentur vana, et divinarentur mendacia, ut dareris super colla vulneratorum impiorum, quorum venit dies in tempore iniquitatis præfinita.

Whilst they see vain things in thy regard, and they divine lies: to bring thee upon the necks of the wicked that are wounded, whose appointed day is come in the time of iniquity.

Cum ad te vide vana, et mendacias divina, ut da super collas vulnera impio, de que veni die in tempore de iniquitate praefinie.

30

Revertere ad vaginam tuam, in loco in quo creatus es: in terra nativitatis tuæ judicabo te.

Return into thy sheath. I will judge thee in the place wherein thou wast created, in the land of thy nativity.

Reverte ad vagina tuo, in loco in quo crea es: in terra de nativitate tuo iudica te.

31

Et effundam super te indignationem meam; in igne furoris mei sufflabo in te: daboque te in manus hominum insipientium, et fabricantium interitum.

And I will pour out upon thee my indignation: in the fire of my rage will I blow upon thee, and will give thee into the hands of men that are brutish and contrive thy destruction.

Et effunde super te indignatione meo; in igni de furore meo suffla in te: et da te in manus de homines insipiente, et fabrica interitu.

32

Igni eris cibus; sanguis tuus erit in medio terræ; oblivioni traderis: quia ego Dominus locutus sum.

Thou shalt be fuel for the fire, thy blood shall be in the midst of the land, thou shalt be forgotten: for I the Lord have spoken it.

Igni es cibo; sanguine tuo es in medio de terra; ad oblivione trade: quia me Domino locuto es.
