Ezekiel 19

1 “And you, lift up a lamentation to princes of Israel,

et tu adsume planctum super principes Israhel

2 and you have said: What [is] your mother? A lioness, She has crouched down among lions, She has multiplied her whelps in the midst of young lions.

et dices quare mater tua leaena inter leones cubavit in medio leunculorum enutrivit catulos suos

3 And she brings up one of her whelps, He has been a young lion, And he learns to tear prey, He has devoured man.

et eduxit unum de leunculis suis leo factus est et didicit capere praedam hominemque comedere

4 And nations hear of him, He has been caught in their pit, And they bring him to the land of Egypt in chains.

et audierunt de eo gentes et non absque vulneribus suis ceperunt eum et adduxerunt eum in catenis in terram Aegypti

5 And as she waited she sees that her hope has perished, And she takes one of her whelps, She has made him a young lion.

quae cum vidisset quoniam infirmata est et periit expectatio eius tulit unum de leunculis suis leonem constituit eum

6 And he goes up and down in the midst of lions, He has been a young lion, And he learns to tear prey, He has devoured man.

qui incedebat inter leones et factus est leo didicit praedam capere et homines devorare

7 And he knows his forsaken habitations, And he has laid waste [to] their cities, And the land and its fullness is desolate, Because of the voice of his roaring.

didicit viduas facere et civitates eorum in desertum adducere et desolata est terra et plenitudo eius a voce rugitus illius

8 And surrounding nations set against him from the provinces. And they spread out their net for him, He has been caught in their pit.

et convenerunt adversum eum gentes undique de provinciis et expanderunt super eum rete suum in vulneribus earum captus est

9 And they put him in prison—in chains, And they bring him to the king of Babylon, They bring him into bulwarks, So that his voice is not heard On mountains of Israel anymore.

et miserunt eum in caveam in catenis adduxerunt eum ad regem Babylonis miseruntque eum in carcerem ne audiretur vox eius ultra super montes Israhel

10 Your mother, like the vine in your blood, Is being planted by waters, She was bearing fruit and full of boughs, Because of many waters.

mater tua quasi vinea in sanguine tuo super aquam plantata fructus eius et frondes eius creverunt ex aquis multis

11 And she has strong rods for scepters of rulers, And she is high in stature above—between thick branches, And it appears in its height In the multitude of its thin shoots.

et factae sunt ei virgae solidae in sceptra dominantium et exaltata est statura eius inter frondes et vidit altitudinem suam in multitudine palmitum suorum

12 And she is plucked up in fury, She has been cast to the earth, And the east wind has dried up her fruit, [The] rod of her strength has been broken and withered, Fire has consumed it.

et evulsa est in ira in terramque proiecta et ventus urens siccavit fructum eius marcuerunt et arefactae sunt virgae roboris eius ignis comedit eam

13 And now she is planted in a wilderness, In a dry and thirsty land.

et nunc transplantata est in desertum in terra invia et sitienti

14 And fire goes forth from a rod of her boughs, It has devoured her fruit, And she has no rod of strength—a scepter to rule, A lamentation—and she has become for a lamentation!”

et egressus est ignis de virga ramorum eius qui fructum eius comedit et non fuit in ea virga fortis sceptrum dominantium planctus est et erit in planctum
