< Hiezechielis Prophetæ 39 >
1 Tu autem fili hominis vaticinare adversum Gog, et dices: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego super te Gog principem capitis Mosoch et Thubal:
“You, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I am against you, Gog, prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal.
2 et circumagam te, et educam te, et ascendere te faciam de lateribus Aquilonis: et adducam te super montes Israel.
I will turn you around, will lead you on, and will cause you to come up from the uttermost parts of the north; and I will bring you onto the mountains of Israel.
3 Et percutiam arcum tuum in manu sinistra tua, et sagittas tuas de manu dextera tua deiiciam.
I will strike your bow out of your left hand, and will cause your arrows to fall out of your right hand.
4 Super montes Israel cades tu, et omnia agmina tua, et populi tui, qui sunt tecum: feris, avibus, omnique volatili, et bestiis terræ dedi te ad devorandum.
You will fall on the mountains of Israel, you, and all your hordes, and the peoples who are with you. I will give you to the ravenous birds of every sort and to the animals of the field to be devoured.
5 Super faciem agri cades: quia ego locutus sum, ait Dominus Deus.
You will fall on the open field, for I have spoken it,” says the Lord GOD.
6 Et immittam ignem in Magog, et in his, qui habitant in insulis confidenter: et scient quia ego Dominus.
“I will send a fire on Magog and on those who dwell securely in the islands. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
7 Et nomen sanctum meum notum faciam in medio populi mei Israel, et non polluam nomen sanctum meum amplius: et scient Gentes quia ego Dominus, Sanctus Israel.
“‘“I will make my holy name known amongst my people Israel. I won’t allow my holy name to be profaned any more. Then the nations will know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.
8 Ecce venit, et factum est, ait Dominus Deus: hæc est dies, de qua locutus sum.
Behold, it comes, and it will be done,” says the Lord GOD. “This is the day about which I have spoken.
9 Et egredientur habitatores de civitatibus Israel, et succendent et comburent arma, clypeum, et hastas, arcum, et sagittas, et baculos manuum, et contos: et succendent ea igni septem annis.
“‘“Those who dwell in the cities of Israel will go out and will make fires of the weapons and burn them, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the war clubs and the spears, and they will make fires with them for seven years;
10 Et non portabunt ligna de regionibus, neque succident de saltibus: quoniam arma succendent igni, et deprædabuntur eos, quibus prædæ fuerant, et diripient vastatores suos, ait Dominus Deus.
so that they will take no wood out of the field, and not cut down any out of the forests; for they will make fires with the weapons. They will plunder those who plundered them, and rob those who robbed them,” says the Lord GOD.
11 Et erit in die illa: dabo Gog locum nominatum sepulchrum in Israel: vallem viatorum ad Orientem maris, quæ obstupescere faciet prætereuntes: et sepelient ibi Gog, et omnem multitudinem eius, et vocabitur vallis multitudinis Gog.
“‘“It will happen in that day, that I will give to Gog a place for burial in Israel, the valley of those who pass through on the east of the sea; and it will stop those who pass through. They will bury Gog and all his multitude there, and they will call it ‘The valley of Hamon Gog’.
12 Et sepelient eos domus Israel, ut mundent terram septem mensibus.
“‘“The house of Israel will be burying them for seven months, that they may cleanse the land.
13 Sepeliet autem eum omnis populus terræ, et erit eis nominata dies, in qua glorificatus sum, ait Dominus Deus.
Yes, all the people of the land will bury them; and they will become famous in the day that I will be glorified,” says the Lord GOD.
14 Et viros iugiter constituent lustrantes terram, qui sepeliant, et requirant eos, qui remanserant super faciem terræ, ut emundent eam: post menses autem septem quærere incipient.
“‘“They will set apart men of continual employment who will pass through the land. Those who pass through will go with those who bury those who remain on the surface of the land, to cleanse it. After the end of seven months they will search.
15 Et circuibunt peragrantes terram: cumque viderint os hominis, statuent iuxta illud titulum, donec sepeliant illud pollinctores in valle multitudinis Gog.
Those who search through the land will pass through; and when anyone sees a man’s bone, then he will set up a sign by it, until the undertakers have buried it in the valley of Hamon Gog.
16 Nomen autem civitatis Amona, et mundabunt terram.
Hamonah will also be the name of a city. Thus they will cleanse the land.”’
17 Tu ergo fili hominis, hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Dic omni volucri, et universis avibus, cunctisque bestiis agri: Convenite, properate, concurrite undique ad victimam meam, quam ego immolo vobis, victimam grandem super montes Israel: ut comedatis carnem, et bibatis sanguinem.
“You, son of man, the Lord GOD says: ‘Speak to the birds of every sort, and to every animal of the field, “Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice on the mountains of Israel, that you may eat meat and drink blood.
18 Carnes fortium comedetis, et sanguinem principum terræ bibetis: arietum, et agnorum, et hircorum, taurorumque et altilium, et pinguium omnium.
You shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bulls, all of them fatlings of Bashan.
19 Et comedetis adipem in saturitatem, et bibetis sanguinem in ebrietatem, de victima, quam ego immolabo vobis:
You shall eat fat until you are full, and drink blood until you are drunk, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
20 et saturabimini super mensam meam de equo, et equite forti, et de universis viris bellatoribus, ait Dominus Deus.
You shall be filled at my table with horses and charioteers, with mighty men, and with all men of war,” says the Lord GOD.’
21 Et ponam gloriam meam in Gentibus: et videbunt omnes gentes iudicium meum, quod fecerim, et manum meam, quam posuerim super eos.
“I will set my glory amongst the nations. Then all the nations will see my judgement that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid on them.
22 Et scient domus Israel quia ego Dominus Deus eorum a die illa, et deinceps.
So the house of Israel will know that I am the LORD their God, from that day and forward.
23 Et scient Gentes quoniam in iniquitate sua capta sit domus Israel, eo quod dereliquerint me, et absconderim faciem meam ab eis: et tradiderim eos in manus hostium, et ceciderint in gladio universi.
The nations will know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity, because they trespassed against me, and I hid my face from them; so I gave them into the hand of their adversaries, and they all fell by the sword.
24 Iuxta immunditiam eorum, et scelus feci eis, et abscondi faciem meam ab illis.
I did to them according to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions. I hid my face from them.
25 Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Nunc reducam captivitatem Iacob, et miserebor omnis domus Israel: et assumam zelum pro nomine sancto meo.
“Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Now I will reverse the captivity of Jacob and have mercy on the whole house of Israel. I will be jealous for my holy name.
26 Et portabunt confusionem suam, et omnem prævaricationem, qua prævaricati sunt in me, cum habitaverint in terra sua confidenter neminem formidantes:
They will forget their shame and all their trespasses by which they have trespassed against me, when they dwell securely in their land. No one will make them afraid
27 et reduxero eos de populis, et congregavero de terris inimicorum suorum, et sanctificatus fuero in eis, in oculis gentium plurimarum.
when I have brought them back from the peoples, gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and am shown holy amongst them in the sight of many nations.
28 Et scient quia ego Dominus Deus eorum, eo quod transtulerim eos in nationes; et congregaverim eos super terram suam, et non dereliquerim quemquam ex eis ibi.
They will know that I am the LORD their God, in that I caused them to go into captivity amongst the nations, and have gathered them to their own land. Then I will leave none of them captive any more.
29 Et non abscondam ultra faciem meam ab eis, eo quod effuderim Spiritum meum super omnem domum Israel, ait Dominus Deus.
I won’t hide my face from them any more, for I have poured out my Spirit on the house of Israel,’ says the Lord GOD.”
