Hiezechielis Prophetæ 35

1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:

Moreover the word of Jehovah 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 Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, O mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against thee, and I will make thee a desolation and an astonishment.

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 Jehovah.

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 enmity, and hast given over the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time of the iniquity of the 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 Jehovah, I will prepare thee unto blood, and blood shall pursue thee: since thou hast not hated blood, therefore 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 an astonishment and a desolation; and I will cut off from it him that passeth through 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 its mountains with its slain: in thy hills and in thy valleys and in all thy watercourses 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 a perpetual desolation, and thy cities shall not be inhabited; and ye shall know that I am Jehovah.

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 Jehovah 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 Jehovah, I will do according to thine anger, and according to thine envy which thou hast showed out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I shall judge 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, Jehovah, have heard all thy revilings which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to devour.

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

And ye have magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard it.

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

Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: 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 over 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 Edom, even all of it; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.
