Hiezechielis Prophetæ 35

1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:

Moreover the word of Yhwh came unto me, saying,

2 Fili hominis, pone faciem tuam adversum montem Seir, et prophetabis de eo, et dices illi:

Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it,

3 [Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ad te, mons Seir: et extendam manum meam super te, et dabo te desolatum atque desertum.

And say unto it, Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Behold, O mount Seir, I am against thee, and I will stretch out mine hand against thee, and I will make thee most desolate.

4 Urbes tuas demoliar, et tu desertus eris: et scies quia ego Dominus.

I will lay thy cities waste, and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am Yhwh.

5 Eo quod fueris inimicus sempiternus, et concluseris filios Israël in manus gladii in tempore afflictionis eorum, in tempore iniquitatis extremæ:

Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an end:

6 propterea vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus, quoniam sanguini tradam te, et sanguis te persequetur: et cum sanguinem oderis, sanguis persequetur te.

Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord Yhwh, I will prepare thee unto blood, and blood shall pursue thee: sith thou hast not hated blood, even blood shall pursue thee.

7 Et dabo montem Seir desolatum atque desertum, et auferam de eo euntem et redeuntem.

Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth.

8 Et implebo montes ejus occisorum suorum: in collibus tuis, et in vallibus tuis atque in torrentibus, interfecti gladio cadent.

And I will fill his mountains with his slain men: in thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with the sword.

9 In solitudines sempiternas tradam te, et civitates tuæ non habitabuntur: et scietis quia ego Dominus Deus.

I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I am Yhwh.

10 Eo quod dixeris: Duæ gentes et duæ terræ meæ erunt, et hæreditate possidebo eas, cum Dominus esset ibi:

Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas Yhwh was there:

11 propterea vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus, quia faciam juxta iram tuam, et secundum zelum tuum, quem fecisti odio habens eos: et notus efficiar per eos, cum te judicavero.

Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord Yhwh, I will even do according to thine anger, and according to thine envy which thou hast used out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I have judged thee.

12 Et scies quia ego Dominus audivi universa opprobria tua quæ locutus es de montibus Israël, dicens: Deserti; nobis ad devorandum dati sunt.

And thou shalt know that I am Yhwh, and that I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume.

13 Et insurrexistis super me ore vestro, et derogastis adversum me verba vestra: ego audivi.

Thus with your mouth ye have boasted against me, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard them.

14 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Lætante universa terra, in solitudinem te redigam:

Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make thee desolate.

15 sicuti gavisus es super hæreditatem domus Israël eo quod fuerit dissipata, sic faciam tibi: dissipatus eris, mons Seir, et Idumæa omnis: et scient quia ego Dominus.]

As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do unto thee: thou shalt be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Idumea, even all of it: and they shall know that I am Yhwh.
