Ezekiel 30
1 Another message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
2 “Son of man, prophesy and announce that this is what the Lord God says: Weep! This is a terrible day!
Fili hominis, propheta, et dic: [Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ululate: Væ, væ diei!
3 The day is soon coming—the Day of the Lord is near. It will be a gloomy, cloudy day, a time of judgment for the nations.
quia juxta est dies, et appropinquat dies Domini, dies nubis: tempus gentium erit.
4 A sword will come to attack Egypt, and there will be anguish in Cush when people are killed in Egypt, when it's robbed of its wealth and the country ruined.
Et veniet gladius in Ægyptum, et erit pavor in Æthiopia, cum ceciderint vulnerati in Ægypto, et ablata fuerit multitudo illius, et destructa fundamenta ejus.
5 Cush, Put, and Lud, and many other peoples, as well as Arabia, Kub, and the people of the promised land, they all, like Egypt, will be killed by the sword.
Æthiopia, et Libya, et Lydi, et omne reliquum vulgus, et Chub, et filii terræ fœderis, cum eis gladio cadent.
6 This is what the Lord says: Egypt's allies will fall, and the country will lose its prestigious position. From Migdol in the north to Syene in the south, they will be killed by the sword, declares the Lord God.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Et corruent fulcientes Ægyptum, et destruetur superbia imperii ejus: a turre Syenes gladio cadent in ea, ait Dominus Deus exercituum.
7 Egypt will become more of a wasteland than any other country, and its towns will be left in ruins.
Et dissipabuntur in medio terrarum desolatarum, et urbes ejus in medio civitatum desertarum erunt:
8 Then they will acknowledge that I am the Lord when I set fire to Egypt and all its allies are crushed.
et scient quia ego Dominus, cum dedero ignem in Ægypto, et attriti fuerint omnes auxiliatores ejus.
9 At that time I will send messengers in ships to shock Cush out of its sense of security. They will tremble in fear when disasters hit Egypt. Watch out! It's definitely coming!
In die illa egredientur nuntii 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 use Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to take away Egypt's wealth.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Cessare faciam multitudinem Ægypti in manu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis.
11 He and his army from the cruelest nation in the world will be brought to destroy the country. They will use their swords to attack Egypt, and they will fill the land with dead bodies.
Ipse et populus ejus cum eo, fortissimi gentium, adducentur ad disperdendam terram: et evaginabunt gladios suos super Ægyptum, et implebunt terram interfectis.
12 I will dry up the rivers and sell the land to wicked people. Using these foreigners I will ruin the land and everything in it. I the Lord have spoken.
Et faciam alveos fluminum aridos, et tradam terram in manus pessimorum: et dissipabo terram et plenitudinem ejus manu alienorum: ego Dominus locutus sum.
13 This is what the Lord God says: I'm going to destroy the idols and get rid of the images in Memphis. There won't be a prince in Egypt any longer, and I will make everyone in the country terrified.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Et disperdam simulacra, et cessare faciam idola de Memphis: et dux de terra Ægypti non erit amplius, et dabo terrorem in terra Ægypti.
14 I will destroy Pathros, set Zoan on fire, and punish Thebes.
Et disperdam terram Phathures, et dabo ignem in Taphnis, et faciam judicia in Alexandria.
15 I will pour out my wrath on Pelusium, Egypt's fortress town, and wipe out the army at Thebes.
Et effundam indignationem meam super Pelusium, robur Ægypti, et interficiam multitudinem Alexandriæ.
16 I will set fire to Egypt, Pelusium will suffer, Thebes will be ripped apart, and Memphis will face trouble every day.
Et dabo ignem in Ægypto: quasi parturiens dolebit Pelusium, et Alexandria erit dissipata, et in Memphis angustiæ quotidianæ.
17 The young soldiers of Heliopolis and Bubastis will fall by the sword, and the people from those towns will be taken captive.
Juvenes Heliopoleos et Bubasti gladio cadent, et ipsæ captivæ ducentur.
18 It will be a dark day in Tahpanhes when I break Egypt's power and bring to an end their proud strength. It will be under a cloud as the people go into captivity.
Et in Taphnis nigrescet dies, cum contrivero ibi sceptra Ægypti, et defecerit in ea superbia potentiæ ejus: ipsam nubes operiet, filiæ autem ejus in captivitatem ducentur.
19 This is how I'm going to punish Egypt, and they will acknowledge that I am the Lord.”
Et judicia faciam in Ægypto: et scient quia ego Dominus.]
20 On the seventh day of the first month of the eleventh year, a message from 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. You can see that it hasn't been bandaged up to heal it, or put it in a splint to provide enough strength to hold a 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 So this is what the Lord God says: Watch out, because I'm condemning Pharaoh king of Egypt! I will break his arms, both the one that's still good and the one already broken, and I will make him drop his sword.
Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ad Pharaonem regem Ægypti, et comminuam brachium ejus forte, sed confractum: et dejiciam gladium de manu ejus,
23 I will scatter the Egyptians among the different nations and countries.
et dispergam Ægyptum in gentibus, et ventilabo eos in terris.
24 I will make the arms of the king of Babylon strong, and put my sword in his hand, but I will break Pharaoh's arms, and he will moan in pain like someone who's about to die.
Et confortabo brachia regis Babylonis, daboque gladium meum in manu ejus, et confringam brachia Pharaonis, et gement gemitibus interfecti coram facie ejus.
25 I will make the arms of Babylon's king strong, but Pharaoh's arms will drop to his sides, weak and useless. Then they will acknowledge that I am the Lord, when I put my sword in the hand of the king of Babylon and he uses it to attack 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 When I scatter the Egyptians among the different nations and countries, they will acknowledge that I am the Lord.”
Et dispergam Ægyptum in nationes, et ventilabo eos in terras: et scient quia ego Dominus.]
