< Jezekiel 29 >

1 In the twelfth year, in the tenth month, on the first [day] of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
In anno decimo, decimo mense, undecima die mensis, factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
2 Son of man, set your face against Pharao king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against the whole of Egypt:
Fili hominis pone faciem tuam contra Pharaonem regem Ægypti, et prophetabis de eo, et de Ægypto universa:
3 and say, Thus says the Lord; Behold, I am against Pharao, the great dragon that lies in the midst of his rivers, that says, The rivers are mine, and I made them.
Loquere, et dices: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ad te Pharao rex Ægypti, draco magne, qui cubas in medio fluminum tuorum, et dicis: Meus est fluvius, et ego feci memetipsum.
4 And I will put hooks in your jaws, and I will cause the fish of your river to stick to your sides, and I will bring you up out of the midst of your river:
Et ponam frenum in maxillis tuis: et agglutinabo pisces fluminum tuorum squamis tuis: et extraham te de medio fluminum tuorum, et universi pisces tui squamis tuis adhærebunt.
5 and I will quickly cast down you and all the fish of your river: you shall fall on the face of the plain, and shall by no means be gathered, and shall not be brought together: I have given you for food to the wild beasts of the earth and to the fowls of the sky.
Et proiiciam te in desertum, et omnes pisces fluminis tui: super faciem terræ cades, non colligeris, neque congregaberis: bestiis terræ, et volatilibus cæli dedi te ad devorandum.
6 And all the dwellers in Egypt shall know that I am the Lord, because you have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
Et scient omnes habitatores Ægypti quia ego Dominus: pro eo quod fuisti baculus arundineus domui Israel.
7 When they took hold of you with their hand, you did break: and when every hand was clapped against them, and when they leaned on you, you were utterly broken, and did crush the loins of them all.
Quando apprehenderunt te manu, et confractus es, et lacerasti omnem humerum eorum: et innitentibus eis super te, comminutus es, et dissolvisti omnes renes eorum.
8 Therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, I [will] bring a sword upon you, and will cut off from you man and beast;
Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego adducam super te gladium: et interficiam de te hominem, et iumentum.
9 and the land of Egypt shall be ruined and desert; and they shall know that I am the Lord; because you say, The rivers are mine, and I made them.
Et erit Terra Ægypti in desertum, et in solitudinem: et scient quia ego Dominus: pro eo quod dixeris: Fluvius meus est, et ego feci eum.
10 Therefore, behold, I am against you, and against all your rivers, and I will give up the land of Egypt to desolation, and the sword, and destruction, from Magdol and Syene even to the borders of the Ethiopians.
Idcirco ecce ego ad te, et ad flumina tua: daboque Terram Ægypti in solitudines, gladio dissipatam, a turre Syenes, usque ad terminos Æthiopiæ.
11 No foot of man shall pass through it, and no foot of beast shall pass through it, and it shall not be inhabited for forty years.
Non pertransibit eam pes hominis, neque pes iumenti gradietur in ea: et non habitabitur quadraginta annis.
12 And I will cause her land to be utterly destroyed in the midst of a land that is desolate, and her cities shall be [desolate] forty years in the midst of cities that are desolate: and I will disperse Egypt amongst the nations, and will utterly scatter them into the countries.
Daboque Terram Ægypti desertam in medio terrarum desertarum, et civitates eius in medio urbium subversarum, et erunt desolatæ quadraginta annis: et dispergam Ægyptios in nationes, et ventilabo eos in terras.
13 Thus says the Lord; After forty years I will gather the Egyptians from the nations amongst whom they have been scattered;
Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Post finem quadraginta annorum congregabo Ægyptum de populis, in quibus dispersi fuerant.
14 and I will turn the captivity of the Egyptians, and will cause them to dwell in the land of Phathore, in the land whence they were taken;
Et reducam captivitatem Ægypti, et collocabo eos in terra Phathures, in terra nativitatis suæ: et erunt ibi in regnum humile:
15 and it shall be a base kingdom beyond all [other] kingdoms; it shall not any more be exalted over the nations; and I will make them few in number, that they may not be [great] amongst the nations.
inter cetera regna erit humillima, et non elevabitur ultra super nationes, et imminuam eos ne imperent Gentibus.
16 And they shall no more be to the house of Israel a confidence bringing iniquity to remembrance, when they follow after them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Neque erunt ultra domui Israel in confidentia, docentes iniquitatem, ut fugiant, et sequantur eos: et scient quia ego Dominus Deus.
17 And it came to pass in the twenty-seventh year, on the first [day] of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Et factum est in vigesimo et septimo anno, in primo, in una mensis: factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
18 Son of man, Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre; every head was bald, and every shoulder peeled; yet there was no reward to him or to his army [serving] against Tyre, nor for the service wherewith they served against it.
Fili hominis Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis servire fecit exercitum suum servitute magna adversum Tyrum: omne caput decalvatum, et omnis humerus depilatus est: et merces non est reddita ei, neque exercitui eius de Tyro pro servitute, qua servivit mihi adversus eam.
19 Thus says the Lord God; Behold, I [will] give to Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon the land of Egypt, and he shall take the plunder thereof, and seize the spoils thereof; and [it] shall be a reward for his army.
Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego dabo Nabuchodonosor regem Babylonis in Terra Ægypti: et accipiet multitudinem eius, et deprædabitur manubias eius, et diripiet spolia eius: et erit merces exercitui illius,
20 In return for his service wherewith he served against Tyre, I have given him the land of Egypt; thus says the Lord God:
et operi, quo servivit adversus eam: dedi ei Terram Ægypti, pro eo quod laboraverit mihi, ait Dominus Deus.
21 In that day shall a horn spring forth for all the house of Israel, and I will give you an open mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
In die illo pullulabit cornu domui Israel, et tibi dabo apertum os in medio eorum: et scient quia ego Dominus.
