< Hiezechielis Prophetæ 6 >
1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
And the word of the Lord was maad to me,
2 Fili hominis, pone faciem tuam ad montes Israël, et prophetabis ad eos,
and he seide, Thou, sone of man, sette thi face to the hillis of Israel; and thou schalt profesie to tho hillis, and schalt seie,
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,
Hillis of Israel, here ye the word of the Lord God. The Lord God seith these thingis to mounteyns, and litil hillis, to roochis of stoon, and to valeis, Lo! Y schal bringe in on you a swerd, and Y schal leese youre hiye thingis.
4 et demoliar aras vestras, et confringentur simulacra vestra, et dejiciam interfectos vestros ante idola vestra:
And Y schal distrie youre auteris, and youre symylacris schulen be brokun; and Y schal caste doun youre slayn men bifore youre idols.
5 et dabo cadavera filiorum Israël ante faciem simulacrorum vestrorum, et dispergam ossa vestra circum aras vestras:
dnA Y schal yyue the deed bodies of the sones of Israel bifor the face of youre symylacris, and Y schal scatere youre boonys
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:
aboute youre auteris, in alle youre dwellingis. Citees schulen be forsakun, and hiy thingis schulen be distried, and schulen be scaterid; and youre auteris schulen perische, and schulen be brokun. And youre idols schulen ceesse, and youre templis of idols schulen be al to-brokun, and youre werkis schulen be doen awei.
7 et cadet interfectus in medio vestri, et scietis quia ego sum Dominus.
And a slayn man schal falle doun in the myddis of you; and ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
8 Et relinquam in vobis eos qui fugerint gladium in gentibus, cum dispersero vos in terris:
And Y schal leeue in you hem that fledden swerd among hethene men, whanne Y schal scatere you in to londis.
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 youre delyuered men schulen haue mynde on me among hethene men, to whiche thei ben led prisoneris; for Y haue al to-broke her herte doynge fornycacioun, and goynge awei fro me, and her iyen doynge fornicacioun aftir her idols. And thei schulen displese hem silf on the yuels, whiche thei diden in alle her abhomynaciouns.
10 Et scient quia ego Dominus non frustra locutus sum, ut facerem eis malum hoc.
And thei schulen wite, that Y the Lord spak not in veyn, that Y schulde do this yuel to hem.
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.
The Lord God seith these thingis, Smyte thin hond, and hurtle thi foot, and seie, Alas! to alle abhomynaciouns of the yuelis of the hous of Israel; for thei schulen falle doun bi swerd, hungur, and pestilence. He that is fer, shal die bi pestilence.
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.
Forsothe he that is niy, shal falle bi swerd. And he that is laft and bisegid, shal die bi hungur. And Y schal fille myn indignacioun in hem.
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.
And ye schulen wite, that Y am the Lord, whanne youre slayn men schulen be in the myddis of youre idols, in the cumpas of youre auteris, in eche hiy litil hil, and in alle the hiynessis of mounteyns, and vndur ech tree ful of wode, and vndur ech ook ful of boowis, that is, a place where thei brenten encense swete smellynge to alle her 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.
And Y schal stretche forth myn hond on hem, and Y schal make her lond desolat and destitute, fro desert Deblata, in alle the dwellyngis of hem; and thei schulen wite, that Y am the Lord.
