Ezekiel 6

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

Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:

2 Son of man, let your face be turned to the mountains of Israel, and be a prophet to them, and say,

Fili hominis pone faciem tuam ad montes Israel, et prophetabis ad eos,

3 You mountains of Israel, give ear to the words of the Lord: this is what the Lord has said to the mountains and the hills, to the waterways and the valleys: See, I, even I, am sending on you a sword for the destruction of your high places.

et dices: Montes Israel audite verbum Domini Dei: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus montibus, et collibus, rupibus, et vallibus: Ecce ego inducam super vos gladium, et disperdam excelsa vestra,

4 And your altars will be made waste, and your sun-images will be broken: and I will have your dead men placed before your images.

et demoliar aras vestras, et confringentur simulachra vestra: et deiiciam interfectos vestros ante idola vestra.

5 And I will put the dead bodies of the children of Israel in front of their images, sending your bones in all directions about your altars.

Et dabo cadavera filiorum Israel ante faciem simulachrorum vestrorum: et dispergam ossa vestra circum aras vestras.

6 In all your living-places the towns will become broken walls, and the high places made waste; so that your altars may be broken down and made waste, and your images broken and ended, and so that your sun-images may be cut down and your works rubbed out.

In omnibus habitationibus vestris, urbes desertæ erunt, et excelsa demolientur, et dissipabuntur: et interibunt aræ vestræ, et confringentur: et cessabunt idola vestra, et conterentur delubra vestra, et delebuntur opera vestra.

7 And the dead will be falling down among you, and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

Et cadet interfectus in medio vestri: et scietis quia ego sum Dominus.

8 But still, I will keep a small band safe from the sword among the nations, when you are sent wandering among the countries.

Et relinquam in vobis eos, qui fugerint gladium in Gentibus, cum dispersero vos in terris.

9 And those of you who are kept safe will have me in mind among the nations where they have been taken away as prisoners, how I sent punishment on their hearts which were untrue to me, and on their eyes which were turned to their false gods: and they will be full of hate for themselves because of the evil things which they have done in all their disgusting ways.

Et recordabuntur mei liberati vestri in Gentibus, ad quas captivi ducti sunt: quia contrivi cor eorum fornicans, et recedens a me; et oculos eorum fornicantes post idola sua: et displicebunt sibimet super malis quæ fecerunt in universis abominationibus suis.

10 And they will be certain that I am the Lord: not for nothing did I say that I would do this evil to them.

Et scient quia ego Dominus non frustra locutus sum ut facerem eis malum hoc.

11 This is what the Lord has said: Give blows with your hand, stamping with your foot, and say, O sorrow! because of all the evil and disgusting ways of the children of Israel: for death will overtake them by the sword and through need of food and by disease.

Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Percute manum tuam, et allide pedem tuum, et dic: Heu! ad omnes abominationes malorum domus Israel: quia gladio, fame, et peste ruituri sunt.

12 He who is far away will come to his death by disease; he who is near will be put to the sword; he who is shut up will come to his death through need of food; and I will give full effect to my passion against them.

Qui longe est, peste morietur: qui autem prope, gladio corruet: et qui relictus fuerit, et obsessus, fame morietur: et complebo indignationem meam in eis.

13 And you will be certain that I am the Lord, when their dead men are stretched among their images round about their altars on every high hill, on all the tops of the mountains, and under every branching tree, and under every thick oak-tree, the places where they made sweet smells to all their images.

Et scietis quia ego Dominus, cum fuerint interfecti vestri in medio idolorum vestrorum in circuitu ararum vestrarum, in omni colle excelso, et in cunctis summitatibus montium, et subtus omne lignum nemorosum, et subtus universam quercum frondosam, locum ubi accenderunt thura redolentia universis idolis suis.

14 And my hand will be stretched out against them, making the land waste and unpeopled, from the waste land to Riblah, through all their living-places: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.

Et extendam manum meam super eos: et faciam terram desolatam, et destitutam a deserto Deblatha in omnibus habitationibus eorum: et scient quia ego Dominus.
