< Ezekiel 30 >

1 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
2 “Son of man, prophesy and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Wail, ‘Alas for that day!’
Fili hominis propheta, et dic: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ululate, væ, væ diei:
3 For the day is near, the Day of the LORD is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations.
quia iuxta est dies, et appropinquat dies Domini: dies nubis, tempus Gentium erit.
4 A sword will come against Egypt, and there will be anguish in Cush when the slain fall in Egypt, its wealth is taken away, and its foundations are torn down.
Et veniet gladius in Ægyptum: et erit pavor in Æthiopia, cum ceciderint vulnerati in Ægypto, et ablata fuerit multitudo illius, et destructa fundamenta eius.
5 Cush, Put, and Lud, and all the various peoples, as well as Libya and the men of the covenant land, will fall with Egypt by the sword.
Æthiopia, et Libya, et Lydi, et omne reliquum vulgus, et Chub, et filii terræ fœderis, cum eis gladio cadent.
6 For this is what the LORD says: The allies of Egypt will fall, and her proud strength will collapse. From Migdol to Syene they will fall by the sword within her,
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Et corruent fulcientes Ægyptum, et destruetur superbia imperii eius: a turre Syenes gladio cadent in ea, ait Dominus Deus exercituum.
7 They will be desolate among desolate lands, and their cities will lie among ruined cities.
Et dissipabuntur in medio terrarum desolatarum, et urbes eius in medio civitatum desertarum erunt.
8 Then they will know that I am the LORD when I set fire to Egypt and all her helpers are shattered.
Et scient quia ego Dominus: cum dedero ignem in Ægypto, et attriti fuerint omnes auxiliatores eius.
9 On that day messengers will go out from Me in ships to frighten Cush out of complacency. Anguish will come upon them on the day of Egypt’s doom. For it is indeed coming.
In die illa egredientur nuncii a facie mea in trieribus ad conterendam Æthiopiæ confidentiam, et erit pavor in eis in die Ægypti, quia absque dubio veniet.
10 This is what the Lord GOD says: I will put an end to the hordes of Egypt by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: cessare faciam multitudinem Ægypti in manu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis.
11 He and his people with him, the most ruthless of the nations, will be brought in to destroy the land. They will draw their swords against Egypt and fill the land with the slain.
Ipse et populus eius cum eo fortissimi Gentium adducentur ad disperdendam terram: et evaginabunt gladios suos super Ægyptum: et implebunt terram interfectis.
12 I will make the streams dry up and sell the land to the wicked. By the hands of foreigners I will bring desolation upon the land and everything in it.
Et faciam alveos fluminum aridos, et tradam terram in manus pessimorum: et dissipabo terram, et plenitudinem eius manu alienorum, ego Dominus locutus sum.
13 This is what the Lord GOD says: I will destroy the idols and put an end to the images in Memphis. There will no longer be a prince in Egypt, and I will instill fear in that land.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Et disperdam simulachra, et cessare faciam idola de Memphis: et dux de Terra Ægypti non erit amplius: et dabo terrorem in Terra Ægypti.
14 I will lay waste Pathros, set fire to Zoan, and execute judgment on Thebes.
Et disperdam terram Phathures, et dabo ignem in Taphnis, et faciam iudicia in Alexandria.
15 I will pour out My wrath on Pelusium, the stronghold of Egypt, and cut off the crowds of Thebes.
Et effundam indignationem meam super Pelusium robur Ægypti, et interficiam multitudinem Alexandriæ,
16 I will set fire to Egypt, Pelusium will writhe in anguish, Thebes will be split open, and Memphis will face daily distress.
et dabo ignem in Ægypto: quasi parturiens dolebit Pelusium, et Alexandria erit dissipata, et in Memphis angustiæ quotidianæ.
17 The young men of On and Pi-beseth will fall by the sword, and those cities will go into captivity.
Iuvenes Heliopoleos, et Bubasti gladio cadent, et ipsæ captivæ ducentur.
18 The day will be darkened in Tahpanhes when I break the yoke of Egypt and her proud strength comes to an end. A cloud will cover her, and her daughters will go into captivity.
Et in Taphnis nigrescet dies, cum contrivero ibi sceptra Ægypti, et defecerit in ea superbia potentiæ eius: ipsam nubes operiet, filiæ autem eius in captivitatem ducentur.
19 So I will execute judgment on Egypt, and they will know that I am the LORD.”
Et iudicia faciam in Ægypto: et scient quia ego Dominus.
20 In the eleventh year, on the seventh day of the first month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Et factum est in undecimo anno, in primo mense, in septima mensis, factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
21 “Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. See, it has not been bound up for healing, or splinted for strength to hold the sword.
Fili hominis brachium Pharaonis regis Ægypti confregi: et ecce non est obvolutum ut restitueretur ei sanitas, ut ligaretur pannis, et fasciaretur linteolis, ut recepto robore posset tenere gladium.
22 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt. I will break his arms, both the strong one and the one already broken, and will make the sword fall from his hand.
Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ad Pharaonem regem Ægypti, et comminuam brachium eius forte, sed confractum: et deiiciam gladium de manu eius:
23 I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands.
et dispergam Ægyptum in gentibus, et ventilabo eos in terris.
24 I will strengthen the arms of Babylon’s king and place My sword in his hand, but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, who will groan before him like a mortally wounded man.
Et confortabo brachia regis Babylonis, daboque gladium meum in manu eius: et confringam brachia Pharaonis, et gement gemitibus interfecti coram facie eius.
25 I will strengthen the arms of Babylon’s king, but Pharaoh’s arms will fall limp. Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I place My sword in the hand of Babylon’s king, and he wields it against the land of Egypt.
Et confortabo brachia regis Babylonis, et brachia Pharaonis concident: et scient quia ego Dominus, cum dedero gladium meum in manu regis Babylonis, et extenderit eum super Terram Ægypti.
26 I will disperse the Egyptians among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”
Et dispergam Ægyptum in nationes, et ventilabo eos in terras, et scient quia ego Dominus.
