Ezekiel 26
1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, on the first of the month, that the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
Et factum est in undecimo anno, prima mensis, factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
2 Son of man, Because Tyre hath said concerning Jerusalem. Aha! She is broken that was the doors of the peoples. She is turned unto me, — I shall be filled, She is laid waste,
Fili hominis, pro eo quod dixit Tyrus de Ierusalem: Euge confractæ sunt portæ populorum, conversa est ad me: implebor, deserta est.
3 Therefore, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Behold me! against thee O Tyre, — So then I will bring up against thee many nations, As the sea bringeth up its rolling waves;
Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego super te Tyre, et ascendere faciam ad te gentes multas, sicut ascendit mare fluctuans.
4 And they shall destroy the walls of Tyre. And break down her towers, And I will scrape clean her dust from off her, —And make of her the glaring face of a cliff:
Et dissipabunt muros Tyri, et destruent turres eius: et radam pulverem eius de ea, et dabo eam in limpidissimam petram.
5 A place for the spreading of nets, shall she become, in the midst of the sea, For, I, have spoken Declareth My Lord. Yahweh, -And she shall become a prey to the nations.
Siccatio sagenarum erit in medio maris, quia ego locutus sum, ait Dominus Deus: et erit in direptionem Gentibus.
6 And her daughters that are in the field: with the sword shall be slain: So shall they know that I am Yahweh.
Filiæ quoque eius, quæ sunt in agro, gladio interficientur: et scient quia ego Dominus.
7 For thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, Behold me! bringing against Tyre. Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon out of the North. a king of kings, —with horses and with chariots and with horsemen, and a gathered host, and much people.
Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego adducam ad Tyrum Nabuchodonosor regem Babylonis ab Aquilone regem regum, cum equis, et curribus, et equitibus, et cœtu, populoque magno.
8 Thy daughters in the field—with the sword, shall he slay, - And shall set against thee a siege-wall And cast up against thee an earthwork, And set up against thee a large shield;
Filias tuas, quæ sunt in agro, gladio interficiet: et circumdabit te munitionibus, et comportabit aggerem in gyro: et elevabit contra te clypeum.
9 And the stroke of his attacking-engine, will he direct against thy walls, — And thy towers, will he break down with his axes.
Et vineas, et arietes temperabit in muros tuos, et turres tuas destruet in armatura sua.
10 By reason of the multitude of his horses, their dust shall cover thee, — At the noise of horseman and wheel and chariot, shall thy walls tremble, when he entereth into thy gates Just as they do who enter a city broken open.
Inundatione equorum eius operiet te pulvis eorum: a sonitu equitum, et rotarum, et curruum movebuntur muri tui, cum ingressus fuerit portas tuas quasi per introitum urbis dissipatæ.
11 With the hoofs of his horses, shall he tread down all thy streets, — Thy people-with the sword, shall he slay, And thy pillars of strength to the earth, shall go down.
Ungulis equorum suorum conculcabit omnes plateas tuas: populum tuum gladio cædet, et statuæ tuæ nobiles in terram corruent.
12 And they shall spoil thy wealth And make a prey of thy merchandise, And break down thy walls And thy pleasant houses, shall they lay in ruins; And thy stones and thy timber and thy dust—in the midst of the waters, shall they lay.
Vastabunt opes tuas, diripient negotiationes tuas: et destruent muros tuos, et domos tuas præclaras subvertent: et lapides tuos, et ligna tua, et pulverem tuum in medio aquarum ponent.
13 And I will cause to cease the hum of thy songs; And the sound of thy lyres, shall not be heard any more.
Et quiescere faciam multitudinem canticorum tuorum, et sonitus cithararum tuarum non audietur amplius.
14 And I will make of thee the glaring face of a cliff. A place for the spreading of nets, shalt thou become, Thou shalt not be but any more, For I. Yahweh have spoken it, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
Et dabo te in limpidissimam petram, siccatio sagenarum eris, nec ædificaberis ultra: quia ego locutus sum, ait Dominus Deus.
15 Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, to Tyre: Shall it not be that. At the sound of thy fall. With the groan of thy pierced one. With the slaughter made in thy midst, The Coastlands shall tremble?
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Tyro: Numquid non a sonitu ruinæ tuæ, et gemitu interfectorum tuorum cum occisi fuerint, in medio tui commovebuntur insulæ?
16 Then shall come down from off their thrones all the princes of the sea, And shall lay aside their robes. And their embroidered garments, shall strip off, — With tremblings, shall they clothe them. selves Upon the ground, shall they sit, And shall tremble every moment and be astonished over thee.
Et descendent de sedibus suis omnes principes maris: et auferent exuvias suas, et vestimenta sua varia abiicient, et induentur stupore: in terra sedebunt, et attoniti super repentino casu tuo admirabuntur.
17 Then shall they take up over thee a dirge, And say to thee, - How hast thou perished, And ceased from the seas, - The city renowned which was strong in the sea She and they who dwelt in her, Who imparted their terror To all who dwelt in her.
Et assumentes super te lamentum, dicent tibi: Quomodo peristi, quæ habitas in mari, urbs inclyta, quæ fuisti fortis in mari cum habitatoribus tuis, quos formidabant universi?
18 Now, shall tremble the Coastlands, In the day of thy fall, - And shall shudder the isles that are in the sea. At thine exit!
Nunc stupebunt naves in die pavoris tui: et turbabuntur insulæ in mari, eo quod nullus egrediatur ex te.
19 For thus saith My Lord Yahweh, When I make thee a desolate city, Like cities which cannot be dwelt in, - When I bring up over thee the roaring deep, And the mighty waters cover thee,
Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Cum dedero te urbem desolatam sicut civitates, quæ non habitantur: et adduxero super te abyssum, et operuerint te aquæ multæ:
20 Then will I bring thee down with them that go down into the pit. Unto the people of age-past times And cause thee to dwell in the earth below Among the desolations from age-past times With them that go down into the pit That thou mayest not be dwelt in, Nor yet present thyself in the land of the living.
Et detraxero te cum his, qui descendunt in lacum ad populum sempiternum et collocavero te in terra novissima sicut solitudines veteres cum his, qui deducuntur in lacum, ut non habiteris: porro cum dedero gloriam in terra viventium,
21 A terror, will I make thee And thou shalt not be: Though thou be sought for, Thou shalt not be found any more To times age-abiding, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh.
in nihilum redigam te, et non eris, et requisita non invenieris ultra in sempiternum, dicit Dominus Deus.
