Hiezechielis Prophetæ 6

1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:

And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:

2 Fili hominis, pone faciem tuam ad montes Israël, et prophetabis ad eos,

Son of man, set thy face against the mountains of Israel, and prophesy against them!

3 et dices: Montes Israël, audite verbum Domini Dei. Hæc dicit Dominus Deus montibus et collibus, rupibus et vallibus: Ecce ego inducam super vos gladium, et disperdam excelsa vestra,

And say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord Jehovah! Thus saith the Lord Jehovah to the mountains and to the hills, to the plains and to the valleys: Behold, I, even I, will bring the sword upon you, and I will destroy your high places;

4 et demoliar aras vestras, et confringentur simulacra vestra, et dejiciam interfectos vestros ante idola vestra:

and your altars shall be desolate, and your sun-images shall be broken; and I will cast down your slain before your idols.

5 et dabo cadavera filiorum Israël ante faciem simulacrorum vestrorum, et dispergam ossa vestra circum aras vestras:

And I will lay the carcasses of the sons of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars.

6 in omnibus habitationibus vestris urbes desertæ erunt, et excelsa demolientur et dissipabuntur: et interibunt aræ vestræ, et confringentur, et cessabunt idola vestra, et conterentur delubra vestra, et delebuntur opera vestra:

In all places where ye dwell shall the cities be laid waste, and the high places be desolate; that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken, and cease, and your sun-images may be cut down, and your works may be destroyed.

7 et cadet interfectus in medio vestri, et scietis quia ego sum Dominus.

And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, that ye may know that I am Jehovah.

8 Et relinquam in vobis eos qui fugerint gladium in gentibus, cum dispersero vos in terris:

Yet will I leave a remnant, that ye may have some that shall have escaped the sword among the nations, when ye shall be scattered through the countries.

9 et recordabuntur mei liberati vestri in gentibus ad quas captivi ducti sunt: quia contrivi cor eorum fornicans et recedens a me, et oculos eorum fornicantes post idola sua: et displicebunt sibimet super malis quæ fecerunt in universis abominationibus suis.

And they of you that escape shall remember me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives, when I have broken their whorish heart which departed from me, and their eyes which went lusting after their idols; and they shall loathe themselves for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.

10 Et scient quia ego Dominus non frustra locutus sum, ut facerem eis malum hoc.

Then shall they know that I am Jehovah, and that I have not said in vain, that I would do all this evil to them.

11 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Percute manum tuam et allide pedem tuum, et dic: Heu! ad omnes abominationes malorum domus Israël: quia gladio, fame et peste ruituri sunt.

Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Smite upon thy hand, and stamp with thy foot, and say, Alas for all the evil abominations of the house of Israel! for by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence shall they fall.

12 Qui longe est, peste morietur: qui autem prope, gladio corruet: et qui relictus fuerit et obsessus, fame morietur: et complebo indignationem meam in eis.

He that is far off shall die by pestilence, and he that is near shall fall by the sword, and he that remaineth and is preserved shall die by famine. Thus will I accomplish my fury upon them.

13 Et scietis quia ego Dominus, cum fuerint interfecti vestri in medio idolorum vestrorum, in circuitu ararum vestrarum, in omni colle excelso, et in cunctis summitatibus montium, et subtus omne lignum nemorosum, et subtus universam quercum frondosam, locum ubi accenderunt thura redolentia universis idolis suis.

Then shall ye know that I am Jehovah, when their slain men shall be among their idols round about their altars, upon every high hill, upon all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick oak, in every place where they offered sweet savor to all their idols.

14 Et extendam manum meam super eos: et faciam terram desolatam et destitutam, a deserto Deblatha, in omnibus habitationibus eorum: et scient quia ego Dominus.

So will I stretch out my hand against them, and make the land desolate; yea, more desolate than the wilderness toward Diblath, in all their habitations; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.
