Ezekiel 29
1 In the tenth year, in the tenth [month], on the twelfth of the month, a word of YHWH has been 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 Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy concerning him, and concerning Egypt—all of it.
Fili hominis pone faciem tuam contra Pharaonem regem Ægypti, et prophetabis de eo, et de Ægypto universa:
3 Speak, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt! The great dragon that is crouching in the midst of his floods, Who has said, My flood [is] my own, And I have made it [for] myself.
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 have put hooks in your jaws, And I have caused the fish of your floods to cleave to your scales, And I have caused you to come up from the midst of your floods, And every fish of your floods cleaves to your scales.
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 have left you in the wilderness, You and every fish of your floods, You fall on the face of the field, You are not gathered nor assembled, I have given you for food to the beast of the earth and to the bird of the heavens.
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 inhabitants of Egypt have known That I [am] YHWH, Because of their being 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 In their taking hold of you by your hand, You crush and have torn every shoulder of theirs, And in their leaning on you you are broken, And have caused all their thighs to stand.
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 said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am bringing in a sword against you, And have cut off man and beast from you.
Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego adducam super te gladium: et interficiam de te hominem, et iumentum.
9 And the land of Egypt has been for a desolation and a ruin, And they have known that I [am] YHWH, Because he said: The flood [is] mine, and I made [it].
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 your floods, And have given the land of Egypt for ruins, A dry place, a desolation, from Migdol to Syene, And to the border of Cush.
Idcirco ecce ego ad te, et ad flumina tua: daboque Terram Ægypti in solitudines, gladio dissipatam, a turre Syenes, usque ad terminos Æthiopiæ.
11 A foot of man does not pass over into it, Indeed, the foot of beast does not pass into it, Nor is it inhabited forty years.
Non pertransibit eam pes hominis, neque pes iumenti gradietur in ea: et non habitabitur quadraginta annis.
12 And I have made the land of Egypt a desolation, In the midst of desolate lands, And its cities, in the midst of cities [that are] laid waste, Are a desolation [for] forty years, And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have dispersed them through lands.
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 But thus said Lord YHWH: At the end of forty years I gather the Egyptians Out of the peoples to where they have been scattered,
Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Post finem quadraginta annorum congregabo Ægyptum de populis, in quibus dispersi fuerant.
14 And I have turned back [to] the captivity of Egypt, And I have brought them back [To] the land of Pathros, to the land of their birth, And they have been a low kingdom there.
Et reducam captivitatem Ægypti, et collocabo eos in terra Phathures, in terra nativitatis suæ: et erunt ibi in regnum humile:
15 It is lowest of the kingdoms, And it does not lift itself up above the nations anymore, And I have made them few, So as not to rule among nations.
inter cetera regna erit humillima, et non elevabitur ultra super nationes, et imminuam eos ne imperent Gentibus.
16 And it is no longer for confidence to the house of Israel, Bringing iniquity to remembrance, By their turning after them, And they have known that I [am] Lord YHWH.”
Neque erunt ultra domui Israel in confidentia, docentes iniquitatem, ut fugiant, et sequantur eos: et scient quia ego Dominus Deus.
17 And it comes to pass, in the twenty-seventh year, in the first [month], on the first of the month, a word of YHWH has been 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, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, Has caused his force to serve a great service against Tyre, Every head [is] bald—every shoulder peeled, And neither he, nor his force, had reward out of Tyre, For the service that he 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 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I am giving the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, And he has taken away its store, And has taken its spoil, and taken its prey, And it has been a reward to his force.
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 I have given to him his wage for which he labored—The land of Egypt, in that they worked for Me, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
et operi, quo servivit adversus eam: dedi ei Terram Ægypti, pro eo quod laboraverit mihi, ait Dominus Deus.
21 In that day I cause a horn to shoot up for the house of Israel, And I give an opening to your mouth in their midst, And they have known that I [am] YHWH!”
In die illo pullulabit cornu domui Israel, et tibi dabo apertum os in medio eorum: et scient quia ego Dominus.
