Hiezechielis Prophetæ 7
1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Et tu fili hominis, hæc dicit Dominus Deus terræ Israel: Finis venit, venit finis super quattuor plagas terræ.
Also, you son of man, thus says the Lord GOD unto the land of Israel; An end, the end has come upon the four corners of the land.
3 Nunc finis super te, et immittam furorem meum in te: et iudicabo te iuxta vias tuas: et ponam contra te omnes abominationes tuas.
Now is the end come upon you, and I will send mine anger upon you, and will judge you according to your ways, and will recompense upon you all of your abominations.
4 Et non parcet oculus meus super te, et non miserebor: sed vias tuas ponam super te, et abominationes tuæ in medio tui erunt: et scietis quia ego Dominus.
And mine eye shall not spare you, neither will I have pity: but I will recompense your ways upon you, and your abominations shall be in the midst of you: and all of you shall know that I am the LORD.
5 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Afflictio una, afflictio ecce venit.
Thus says the Lord GOD; An evil, an only evil, behold, has come.
6 Finis venit, venit finis, evigilavit adversum te: ecce venit.
An end has come, the end has come: it watches for you; behold, it has come.
7 Venit contritio super te, qui habitas in terra: venit tempus, prope est dies occisionis, et non gloriæ montium.
The morning has come unto you, O you that dwell in the land: the time has come, the day of trouble is near, and not the sounding again of the mountains.
8 Nunc de propinquo effundam iram meam super te, et complebo furorem meum in te: et iudicabo te iuxta vias tuas, et imponam tibi omnia scelera tua:
Now will I shortly pour out my fury upon you, and accomplish mine anger upon you: and I will judge you according to your ways, and will recompense you for all of your abominations.
9 Et non parcet oculus meus, nec miserebor, sed vias tuas imponam tibi, et abominationes tuæ in medio tui erunt: et scietis quia ego sum Dominus percutiens.
And mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: I will recompense you according to your ways and your abominations that are in the midst of you; and all of you shall know that I am the LORD that strikes.
10 Ecce dies, ecce venit: egressa est contritio, floruit virga, germinavit superbia:
Behold the day, behold, it has come: the morning is gone forth; the rod has blossomed, pride has budded.
11 Iniquitas surrexit in virga impietatis: non ex eis, et non ex populo, neque ex sonitu eorum: et non erit requies in eis.
Violence has risen up into a rod of wickedness: none of them shall remain, nor of their multitude, nor of any of their's: neither shall there be wailing for them.
12 Venit tempus, appropinquavit dies: qui emit, non lætetur: et qui vendit, non lugeat: quia ira super omnem populum eius.
The time has come, the day draws near: let not the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn: for wrath is upon all the multitude thereof.
13 Quia qui vendit, ad id, quod vendidit, non revertetur, et adhuc in viventibus vita eorum. Visio enim ad omnem multitudinem eius non regredietur: et vir in iniquitate vitæ suæ non confortabitur.
For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although they were yet alive: for the vision is concerning the whole multitude thereof, which shall not return; neither shall any strengthen himself in the iniquity of his life.
14 Canite tuba, præparentur omnes, et non est qui vadat ad prælium: ira enim mea super universum populum eius.
They have blown the trumpet, even to make all ready; but none goes to the battle: for my wrath is upon all the multitude thereof.
15 Gladium foris: et pestis, et fames intrinsecus: qui in agro est, gladio morietur: et qui in civitate, pestilentia, et fame devorabuntur.
The sword is without, and the pestilence and the famine within: he that is in the field shall die with the sword; and he that is in the city, famine and pestilence shall devour him.
16 Et salvabuntur qui fugerint ex eis: et erunt in montibus quasi columbæ convallium omnes trepidi, unusquisque in iniquitate sua.
But they that escape of them shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, every one for his iniquity.
17 Omnes manus dissolventur, et omnia genua fluent aquis.
All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall be weak as water.
18 Et accingent se ciliciis, et operiet eos formido, et in omni facie confusio, et in universis capitibus eorum calvitium.
They shall also gird themselves with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame shall be upon all faces, and baldness upon all their heads.
19 Argentum eorum foras proiicietur, et aurum eorum in sterquilinium erit. Argentum eorum, et aurum eorum non valebit liberare eos in die furoris Domini. Animam suam non saturabunt, et ventres eorum non implebuntur: quia scandalum iniquitatis eorum factum est.
They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels: because it is the stumbling block of their iniquity.
20 Et ornamentum monilium suorum in superbiam posuerunt, et imagines abominationum suarum, et simulachrorum fecerunt ex eo: propter hoc dedi eis illud in immunditiam:
As for the beauty of his ornament, he set it in majesty: but they made the images of their abominations and of their detestable things therein: therefore have I set it far from them.
21 et dabo illud in manus alienorum ad diripiendum, et impiis terræ in prædam, et contaminabunt illud.
And I will give it into the hands of the strangers for a prey, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they shall pollute it.
22 Et avertam faciem meam ab eis, et violabunt arcanum meum: et introibunt in illud emissarii, et contaminabunt illud.
My face will I turn also from them, and they shall pollute my secret place: for the robbers shall enter into it, and defile it.
23 Fac conclusionem: quoniam terra plena est iudicio sanguinum, et civitas plena iniquitate.
Make a chain: for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence.
24 Et adducam pessimos de Gentibus, et possidebunt domos eorum. Et quiescere faciam superbiam potentium, et possidebunt sanctuaria eorum.
Wherefore I will bring the worst of the heathen, and they shall possess their houses: I will also make the pomp of the strong to cease; and their holy places shall be defiled.
25 Angustia superveniente, requirent pacem, et non erit.
Destruction comes; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none.
26 Conturbatio super conturbationem veniet, et auditus super auditum: et quærent visionem de propheta, et lex peribit a sacerdote, et consilium a senioribus.
Mischief shall come upon mischief, and rumour shall be upon rumour; then shall they seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the ancients.
27 Rex lugebit, et princeps induetur mœrore, et manus populi terræ conturbabuntur. Secundum viam eorum faciam eis, et secundum iudicia eorum iudicabo eos: et scient quia ego Dominus.
The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with desolation, and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled: I will do unto them after their way, and according to their deserts will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
