Prophetia Zachariae

Et conversus sum, et levavi oculos meos, et vidi, et ecce volumen volans.

And I turned and lifted up my eyes: and I saw, and behold a volume flying.

Et converte es, et leva oculos meo, et vide, et ecce volumine vol.

Et dixit ad me: Quid tu vides? Et dixi: Ego video volumen volans: longitudo ejus viginti cubitorum, et latitudo ejus decem cubitorum.

And he said to me: What seest thou? And I said: I see a volume flying: the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits.

Et dic ad me: te vide quid? Et dic: me vide volumine vol: longitudine de illo viginti de cubitos, et latitudine de illo deceme de cubito.

Et dixit ad me: Hæc est maledictio quæ egreditur super faciem omnis terræ: quia omnis fur, sicut ibi scriptum est, judicabitur, et omnis jurans ex hoc similiter judicabitur.

And he said to me: This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the earth: for every thief shall be judged as is there written: and every one that sweareth in like manner shall be judged by it.

Et hoc ad me: es maledictione que egredior super facie omni de terra dic: quia omni fure, sicut ibi scripto es, iudica, et omni iura ex hoc similiter iudica.

Educam illud, dicit Dominus exercituum: et veniet ad domum furis, et ad domum jurantis in nomine meo mendaciter: et commorabitur in medio domus ejus, et consumet eam, et ligna ejus, et lapides ejus.

I will bring it forth, saith the Lord of hosts: and it shall come to the house of the thief, and to the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it, with the timber thereof, and the stones thereof.

Educe illo, Domino de exercitus dic: et veni ad domo de fure, et ad domo iura in nomine meo mendaciter: et domo in medio de illo commoror, et consume illa, et lignos de illo, et lapides de illo.

Et egressus est angelus qui loquebatur in me, et dixit ad me: Leva oculos tuos, et vide quid est hoc quod egreditur.

And the angel went forth that spoke in me, and he said to me: Lift up thy eyes, and see what this is, that goeth forth.

Et egredior es angelo qui loque in me, et dic ad me: lege oculos tuo, et vide quid es hoc quod egredior.

Et dixi: Quidnam est? Et ait: Hæc est amphora egrediens. Et dixit: Hæc est oculus eorum in universa terra.

And I said: What is it? And he said: This is a vessel going forth. And he said: This is their eye in all the earth.

Et dic: quisname es? Et amphure: dic es hoc egredior. Et oculo: de illos dic hoc es in universa terra.

Et ecce talentum plumbi portabatur, et ecce mulier una sedens in medio amphoræ.

And behold a talent of lead was carried, and behold a woman sitting in the midst of the vessel.

Et ecce talento de plumbo porta, et ecce muliere uno sedente in medio de amphora.

Et dixit: Hæc est impietas. Et projecit eam in medio amphoræ, et misit massam plumbeam in os ejus.

And he said: This is wickedness. And he cast her into the midst of the vessel, and cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.

Et impietate: hoc es dic. Et proicie illa in medio de amphora, et mitte massa plumbeo in ore de illo.

Et levavi oculos meos, et vidi: et ecce duæ mulieres egredientes: et spiritus in alis earum, et habebant alas quasi alas milvi, et levaverunt amphoram inter terram et cælum.

And I lifted up my eyes and looked: and behold there came out two women, and wind was in their wings, and they had wings like the wings of a kite: and they lifted up the vessel between the earth and the heaven.

Et leva oculos meo, et vide: et ecce duo muliere egredior: et spiritu in ales de illas, et habe alas quasi alas milites, et leva amphora inter terra et caelo.

Et dixi ad angelum qui loquebatur in me: Quo istæ deferunt amphoram?

And I said to the angel that spoke in me: Whither do these carry the vessel?

Et dic ad angelo qui loque in me: quo isto defer amphora?

Et dixit ad me: Ut ædificetur ei domus in terra Sennaar, et stabiliatur, et ponatur ibi super basem suam.

And he said to me: That a house may be built for it in the land of Sennaar, and that it may be established, and set there upon its own basis.

Et dic ad me: ut domo ad illo aedifica in terra Sennaare, et stabili, et pone ibi super basi suo.
