< Ezekiel 7 >

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
2 “And as for you, son of man: Thus says the Lord God to the land of Israel: The end is coming, the end is coming, over the four regions of the earth.
Et tu fili hominis, haec dicit Dominus Deus terrae Israel: Finis venit, venit finis super quattuor plagas terrae.
3 Now the end is over you, and I will send my fury upon you. And I will judge you according to your ways. And I will place all your abominations before you.
Nunc finis super te, et immittam furorem meum in te: et iudicabo te iuxta vias tuas: et ponam contra te omnes abominationes tuas.
4 And my eye will not be lenient over you, and I will not take pity. Instead, I will set your ways upon you, and your abominations will be in your midst. And you shall know that I am the Lord.”
Et non parcet oculus meus super te, et non miserebor: sed vias tuas ponam super te, et abominationes tuae in medio tui erunt: et scietis quia ego Dominus.
5 Thus says the Lord God: “One affliction, behold, one affliction is approaching.
Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Afflictio una, afflictio ecce venit.
6 The end is coming, the end is coming. It has been vigilant against you. Behold, it is approaching.
finis venit, venit finis, evigilavit adversum te: ecce venit.
7 Destruction is coming over you, who live upon the earth. The time is approaching, the day of slaughter is near, and it is not of the glory of the mountains.
Venit contritio super te, qui habitas in terra: venit tempus, prope est dies occisionis, et non gloriae montium.
8 Now, very soon, I will pour out my wrath upon you, and I will fulfill my fury in you. And I will judge you according to your ways, and I will set upon you all your crimes.
Nunc de propinquo effundam iram meam super te, et complebo furorem meum in te: et iudicabo te iuxta vias tuas, et imponam tibi omnia scelera tua:
9 And my eye will not be lenient, nor will I take pity. Instead, I will place your ways upon you, and your abominations will be in your midst. And you shall know that I am the Lord, who is striking.
Et non parcet oculus meus, nec miserebor, sed vias tuas imponam tibi, et abominationes tuae in medio tui erunt: et scietis quia ego sum Dominus percutiens.
10 Behold, the day! Behold, it approaches! Destruction has gone forth, the rod has blossomed, arrogance has germinated.
Ecce dies, ecce venit: egressa est contritio, floruit virga, germinavit superbia:
11 Iniquity has risen up into a rod of impiety. There shall be nothing left of them, and of their people, and of the sound of them. And there shall be no rest for them.
Iniquitas surrexit in virga impietatis: non ex eis, et non ex populo, neque ex sonitu eorum: et non erit requies in eis.
12 The time is approaching; the day is very near. Whoever buys should not rejoice. And whoever sells should not mourn. For wrath is over all of their people.
Venit tempus, appropinquavit dies: qui emit, non laetetur: et qui vendit, non lugeat: quia ira super omnem populum eius.
13 For whoever sells will not return to what he has sold, but as yet their life will be among the living. For the vision concerning their entire multitude will not turn back. And man will not be strengthened in the iniquity of his life.
Quia qui vendit, ad id, quod vendidit, non revertetur, et adhuc in viventibus vita eorum. visio enim ad omnem multitudinem eius non regredietur: et vir in iniquitate vitae suae non confortabitur.
14 Sound the trumpet! Let everyone be prepared! And yet there is no one who may go to battle. For my wrath is over all their people.
Canite tuba, praeparentur omnes, et non est qui vadat ad praelium: ira enim mea super universum populum eius.
15 The sword is outside, and the pestilence and the famine are inside. Whoever is in the field will die by the sword. And whoever is in the city will be devoured by the pestilence and the famine.
Gladium foris: et pestis, et fames intrinsecus: qui in agro est, gladio morietur: et qui in civitate, pestilentia, et fame devorabuntur.
16 And those who flee from among them will be saved. And they will be among the mountains, like doves in steep valleys, with every one of them trembling, each one because of his iniquity.
Et salvabuntur qui fugerint ex eis: et erunt in montibus quasi columbae convallium omnes trepidi, unusquisque in iniquitate sua.
17 All hands will be weakened, and all knees will flow with water.
Omnes manus dissolventur, et omnia genua fluent aquis.
18 And they will wrap themselves with haircloth, and dread will cover them. And shame will be upon every face, and baldness will be upon all of their heads.
Et accingent se ciliciis, et operiet eos formido, et in omni facie confusio, et in universis capitibus eorum calvitium.
19 Their silver will be thrown away, and their gold will be like a dunghill. Their silver and their gold will have no power to free them in the day of the fury of the Lord. They will not satisfy their soul, and their bellies will not be filled, because of the scandal of their iniquity.
Argentum eorum foras proiicietur, et aurum eorum in sterquilinium erit. Argentum eorum, et aurum eorum non valebit liberare eos in die furoris Domini. Animam suam non saturabunt, et ventres eorum non implebuntur: quia scandalum iniquitatis eorum factum est.
20 And they have set arrogance as the ornament of their necklaces, and they have made images of their abominations and graven idols. Because of this, I have let it be an uncleanness for them.
Et ornamentum monilium suorum in superbiam posuerunt, et imagines abominationum suarum, et simulachrorum fecerunt ex eo: propter hoc dedi eis illud in immunditiam:
21 And I will give it into the hands of foreigners as a spoil, and to the impious of the earth as a prey, and they will defile it.
et dabo illud in manus alienorum ad diripiendum, et impiis terrae in praedam, et contaminabunt illud.
22 And I will avert my face from them, and they will violate my place of mystery. And untamed persons will enter into it, and they will defile it.
Et avertam faciem meam ab eis, et violabunt arcanum meum: et introibunt in illud emissarii, et contaminabunt illud.
23 Cause it to be closed. For the land has been filled with the judgment of blood, and the city is full of iniquity.
Fac conclusionem: quoniam terra plena est iudicio sanguinum, et civitas plena iniquitate.
24 And I will lead in the most sinful among the Gentiles, and they will possess their houses. And I will cause the arrogance of the powerful to be quieted. And they will possess their sanctuaries.
Et adducam pessimos de Gentibus, et possidebunt domos eorum. et quiescere faciam superbiam potentium, et possidebunt sanctuaria eorum.
25 When anguish overwhelms them, they will seek peace, and there will be none.
Angustia superveniente, requirent pacem, et non erit.
26 Disturbance will follow after disturbance, and rumor after rumor. And they will seek the vision of the prophet, and the law will perish from the priest, and counsel will perish from the elders.
Conturbatio super conturbationem veniet, et auditus super auditum: et quaerent visionem de propheta, et lex peribit a sacerdote, et consilium a senioribus.
27 The king will mourn, and the prince will be clothed with grief, and the hands of the people of the earth will be greatly disturbed. I will act toward them in accord with their own way, and I will judge them in accord with their own judgments. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
Rex lugebit, et princeps induetur moerore, et manus populi terrae conturbabuntur. Secundum viam eorum faciam eis, et secundum iudicia eorum iudicabo eos: et scient quia ego Dominus.
