Hiezechielis Prophetæ 32
1 Et factum est, duodecimo anno, in mense duodecimo, in una mensis: factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
And it cometh to pass, in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the first of the month, hath a word of Jehovah been unto me, saying,
2 Fili hominis, assume lamentum super Pharaonem regem Ægypti, et dices ad eum: Leoni gentium assimilatus es, et draconi qui est in mari: et ventilabas cornu in fluminibus tuis, et conturbabas aquas pedibus tuis, et conculcabas flumina earum.
'Son of man, lift up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and thou hast said unto him: A young lion of nations thou hast been like, And thou [art] as a dragon in the seas, And thou comest forth with thy flowings, And dost trouble the waters with thy feet, And thou dost foul their flowings.
3 Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Expandam super te rete meum in multitudine populorum multorum, et extraham te in sagena mea.
Thus said the Lord Jehovah: And — I have spread out for thee My net, With an assembly of many peoples, And they have brought thee up in My net.
4 Et projiciam te in terram; super faciem agri abjiciam te: et habitare faciam super te omnia volatilia cæli, et saturabo de te bestias universæ terræ.
And I have left thee in the land, On the face of the field I do cast thee out, And have caused to dwell upon thee every fowl of the heavens, And have satisfied out of thee the beasts of the whole earth.
5 Et dabo carnes tuas super montes, et implebo colles tuos sanie tua.
And I have put thy flesh on the mountains, And filled the valleys [with] thy hugeness,
6 Et irrigabo terram fœtore sanguinis tui super montes, et valles implebuntur ex te.
And watered the land with thy flowing, From thy blood — unto the mountains, And streams are filled from thee.
7 Et operiam, cum extinctus fueris, cælum, et nigrescere faciam stellas ejus: solem nube tegam, et luna non dabit lumen suum.
And in quenching thee I have covered the heavens, And have made black their stars, The sun with a cloud I do cover, And the moon causeth not its light to shine.
8 Omnia luminaria cæli mœrere faciam super te, et dabo tenebras super terram tuam, dicit Dominus Deus, cum ceciderint vulnerati tui in medio terræ, ait Dominus Deus.
All luminaries of light in the heavens, I make black over thee, And I have given darkness over thy land, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah,
9 Et irritabo cor populorum multorum, cum induxero contritionem tuam in gentibus super terras quas nescis.
And I have vexed the heart of many peoples, In My bringing in thy destruction among nations, Unto lands that thou hast not known.
10 Et stupescere faciam super te populos multos, et reges eorum horrore nimio formidabunt super te, cum volare cœperit gladius meus super facies eorum: et obstupescent repente singuli pro anima sua in die ruinæ tuæ.
And I have made many peoples astonished at thee, And their kings are afraid at thee with trembling, In My brandishing My sword before their faces, And they have trembled every moment, Each for his life — in the day of thy fall.
11 Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Gladius regis Babylonis veniet tibi.
For thus said the Lord Jehovah: A sword of the king of Babylon entereth thee,
12 In gladiis fortium dejiciam multitudinem tuam: inexpugnabiles omnes gentes hæ, et vastabunt superbiam Ægypti, et dissipabitur multitudo ejus.
By swords of the mighty I cause thy multitude to fall, The terrible of nations — all of them, And they have spoiled the excellency of Egypt, And destroyed hath been all her multitude.
13 Et perdam omnia jumenta ejus, quæ erant super aquas plurimas: et non conturbabit eas pes hominis ultra, neque ungula jumentorum turbabit eas.
And I have destroyed all her beasts, From beside many waters, And trouble them not doth a foot of man any more, Yea, the hoofs of beasts trouble them not.
14 Tunc purissimas reddam aquas eorum, et flumina eorum quasi oleum adducam, ait Dominus Deus,
Then do I cause their waters to sink, And their rivers as oil I cause to go, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
15 cum dedero terram Ægypti desolatam: deseretur autem terra a plenitudine sua quando percussero omnes habitatores ejus: et scient quia ego Dominus.
In My making the land of Egypt a desolation, And desolated hath been the land of its fulness, In My smiting all the inhabitants in it, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah.
16 Planctus est, et plangent eum: filiæ gentium plangent eum: super Ægyptum et super multitudinem ejus plangent eum, ait Dominus Deus.
A lamentation it [is], and they have lamented her, Daughters of the nations do lament her, For Egypt, and for all her multitude, they lament her, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'
17 Et factum est in duodecimo anno, in quintadecima mensis: factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
And it cometh to pass, in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth of the month, hath a word of Jehovah been unto me, saying,
18 Fili hominis, cane lugubre super multitudinem Ægypti: et detrahe eam ipsam, et filias gentium robustarum, ad terram ultimam, cum his qui descendunt in lacum.
'Son of man, Wail for the multitude of Egypt, And cause it to go down, It — and the daughters of honourable nations, Unto the earth — the lower parts, With those going down to the pit.
19 Quo pulchrior es? descende, et dormi cum incircumcisis.
Than whom hast thou been more pleasant? Go down, and be laid with the uncircumcised.
20 In medio interfectorum gladio cadent; gladius datus est: attraxerunt eam et omnes populos ejus.
In the midst of the pierced of the sword they fall, [To] the sword she hath been given, They drew her out, and all her multitude.
21 Loquentur ei potentissimi robustorum de medio inferni, qui cum auxiliatoribus ejus descenderunt, et dormierunt incircumcisi interfecti gladio. (Sheol h7585)
Speak to him do the gods of the mighty out of the midst of sheol, With his helpers — they have gone down, They have lain with the uncircumcised, The pierced of the sword. (Sheol h7585)
22 Ibi Assur, et omnis multitudo ejus: in circuitu illius sepulchra ejus, omnes interfecti, et qui ceciderunt gladio.
There [is] Asshur, and all her assembly, Round about him [are] his graves, All of them [are] wounded, who are falling by sword,
23 Quorum data sunt sepulchra in novissimis laci, et facta est multitudo ejus per gyrum sepulchri ejus: universi interfecti, cadentesque gladio, qui dederant quondam formidinem in terra viventium.
Whose graves are appointed in the sides of the pit, And her assembly is round about her grave, All of them wounded, falling by sword, Because they gave terror in the land of the living.
24 Ibi Ælam, et omnis multitudo ejus per gyrum sepulchri sui: omnes hi interfecti, ruentesque gladio, qui descenderunt incircumcisi ad terram ultimam; qui posuerunt terrorem suum in terra viventium, et portaverunt ignominiam suam cum his qui descendunt in lacum.
There [is] Elam, and all her multitude, Round about [is] her grave, All of them wounded, who are falling by sword, Who have gone down uncircumcised unto the earth — the lower parts, Because they gave their terror in the land of the living, And they bear their shame with those going down to the pit.
25 In medio interfectorum posuerunt cubile ejus in universis populis ejus: in circuitu ejus sepulchrum illius: omnes hi incircumcisi, interfectique gladio. Dederunt enim terrorem suum in terra viventium, et portaverunt ignominiam suam cum his qui descendunt in lacum: in medio interfectorum positi sunt.
In the midst of the wounded they have appointed a bed for her with all her multitude, Round about him [are] her graves, All of them uncircumcised, pierced of the sword, For their terror was given in the land of the living, And they bear their shame with those going down to the pit, In the midst of the pierced he hath been put.
26 Ibi Mosoch et Thubal, et omnis multitudo ejus: in circuitu ejus sepulchra illius: omnes hi incircumcisi, interfectique et cadentes gladio, quia dederunt formidinem suam in terra viventium.
There [is] Meshech, Tubal, and all her multitude, Round about him [are] her graves, All of them uncircumcised, pierced of the sword, For they gave their terror in the land of the living,
27 Et non dormient cum fortibus, cadentibusque, et incircumcisis, qui descenderunt ad infernum cum armis suis, et posuerunt gladios suos sub capitibus suis, et fuerunt iniquitates eorum in ossibus eorum: quia terror fortium facti sunt in terra viventium. (Sheol h7585)
And they lie not with the mighty, Who are falling of the uncircumcised, Who have gone down to sheol with their weapons of war, And they put their swords under their heads, And their iniquities are on their bones, For the terror of the mighty [is] in the land of the living. (Sheol h7585)
28 Et tu ergo in medio incircumcisorum contereris, et dormies cum interfectis gladio.
And thou, in the midst of the uncircumcised art broken, And dost lie with the pierced of the sword.
29 Ibi Idumæa, et reges ejus, et omnes duces ejus, qui dati sunt cum exercitu suo cum interfectis gladio, et qui cum incircumcisis dormierunt, et cum his qui descendunt in lacum.
There [is] Edom, her kings, and all her princes, Who have been given up in their might, With the pierced of the sword, They with the uncircumcised do lie, And with those going down to the pit.
30 Ibi principes aquilonis omnes, et universi venatores, qui deducti sunt cum interfectis, paventes, et in sua fortitudine confusi: qui dormierunt incircumcisi cum interfectis gladio, et portaverunt confusionem suam cum his qui descendunt in lacum.
There [are] princes of the north, All of them, and every Zidonian, Who have gone down with the pierced in their terror, Of their might they are ashamed, And they lie uncircumcised with the pierced of the sword, And they bear their shame with those going down to the pit.
31 Vidit eos Pharao, et consolatus est super universa multitudine sua, quæ interfecta est gladio: Pharao, et omnis exercitus ejus, ait Dominus Deus.
Then doth Pharaoh see, And he hath been comforted for all his multitude, The pierced of the sword — Pharaoh and all his force, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
32 Quia dedi terrorem meum in terra viventium, et dormivit in medio incircumcisorum cum interfectis gladio: Pharao, et omnis multitudo ejus, ait Dominus Deus.
For I have given his terror in the land of the living, And he hath been laid down in the midst of the uncircumcised, With the pierced of the sword — Pharaoh, and all his multitude, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'
