< Hiezechielis Prophetæ 7 >
1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
Yahweh gave me another message. [He said]
2 Et tu, fili hominis, hæc dicit Dominus Deus terræ Israël: Finis venit: venit finis super quatuor plagas terræ.
“You human, this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say to [the people] [MTY] of Israel: All of Israel will soon be destroyed.
3 Nunc finis super te, et immittam furorem meum in te: et judicabo te juxta vias tuas, et ponam contra te omnes abominationes tuas.
[people of Israel], the end has come. I will punish you severely. I will judge you for all the wicked things that you have done, and pay you back for your disgusting behavior.
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.
I will not pity you or act mercifully toward you. I will [surely] punish you for your wicked behavior [DOU]. Then you will know that [it has happened because] I, Yahweh, [have done it].”
5 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Afflictio una, afflictio ecce venit.
This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “You will soon experience many terrible disasters!
6 Finis venit, venit finis: evigilavit adversum te, ecce venit.
This will be the [of Israel]; your country will be finished! And your [lives] will be ended [PRS]!
7 Venit contritio super te, qui habitas in terra: venit tempus, prope est dies occisionis, et non gloriæ montium.
It will be the end of you people who live in the [of Israel]. The time has come; the [when you will be destroyed] is near. At that time [the people who worship idols] on the mountains will not be happy; they will panic.
8 Nunc de propinquo effundam iram meam super te, et complebo furorem meum in te: et judicabo te juxta vias tuas, et imponam tibi omnia scelera tua,
I am very angry with you and am about to pour out my punishment [MTY] on you. I will judge you for all the wicked things that you have done and pay you back for your disgusting behavior.
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.
I will not pity you or act mercifully toward you. I will surely punish you for your wicked behavior [DOU]. Then you will know that it is I, Yahweh, who have punished you.
10 Ecce dies, ecce venit: egressa est contritio, floruit virga, germinavit superbia,
The [of your punishment] is here! It has arrived! Disasters have come.
11 iniquitas surrexit in virga impietatis: non ex eis, et non ex populo, neque ex sonitu eorum: et non erit requies in eis.
People are acting violently and doing more wicked things. And nothing that belongs to those people will be left, none of their money, nothing that is valuable.
12 Venit tempus, appropinquavit dies: qui emit, non lætetur, et qui vendit, non lugeat: quia ira super omnem populum ejus.
Now is the time; that day has arrived.
13 Quia qui vendit, ad id quod vendidit non revertetur: et adhuc in viventibus vita eorum: visio enim ad omnem multitudinem ejus non regredietur, et vir in iniquitate vitæ suæ non confortabitur.
People who buy things should not [because of buying things very cheaply], and those who sell things should not be [because they had to sell things cheaply], [Yahweh] will be punishing [MTY] everyone. During the rest of their lives, people who sell some of their property will never be able to buy it back, because I, Yahweh, will never change my mind about what I have declared; because of your sins, [I will destroy] all of you people.
14 Canite tuba, præparentur omnes: et non est qui vadat ad prælium: ira enim mea super universum populum ejus.
Even though [soldiers] blow [to prepare for] a battle, no soldier will go into a battle, because I will have killed all of them.
15 Gladium foris, et pestis et fames intrinsecus: qui in agro est, gladio morietur, et qui in civitate, pestilentia et fame devorabuntur.
[When those things happen, your enemies] will be [the city] with their swords, and there will be plagues and famines [the city]. [who flee from the city] into the countryside will be killed [their enemies’] swords, and those who stay in the city will die from famines and plagues.
16 Et salvabuntur qui fugerint ex eis: et erunt in montibus quasi columbæ convallium omnes trepidi, unusquisque in iniquitate sua.
Those who survive and escape will flee to the mountains, and they all will moan like doves because of their sins.
17 Omnes manus dissolventur, et omnia genua fluent aquis.
[Because everyone will be very afraid, ] all the people’s hands will become limp and their knees will become very weak.
18 Et accingent se ciliciis, et operiet eos formido: et in omni facie confusio, et in universis capitibus eorum calvitium.
They will put on clothes made from rough cloth, and they will be terrified. Their faces will show that they are ashamed, and they will shave their [to show that they are very sad].
19 Argentum eorum foras projicietur, 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 will throw their silver into the streets, and consider that their gold is only like [SIM] garbage, because they will realize that their silver and gold will not be able to rescue them when I, Yahweh, punish them. They will not be able to use their gold and silver to buy things to fill their stomachs, because having a lot of gold and silver has led them to sin.
20 Et ornamentum monilium suorum in superbiam posuerunt, et imagines abominationum suarum et simulacrorum fecerunt ex eo: propter hoc dedi eis illud in immunditiam.
They were proud of their beautiful jewelry, and they used it to make their detestable idols and disgusting [of their gods]. So I will cause them to be disgusted with those things.
21 Et dabo illud in manus alienorum ad diripiendum, et impiis terræ in prædam, et contaminabunt illud.
I will give their silver and gold to foreigners who invade your country and take away your valuable treasures. I will give those things to wicked people, and they will do disgraceful things to those treasures that I give them.
22 Et avertam faciem meam ab eis, et violabunt arcanum meum: et introibunt in illud emissarii, et contaminabunt illud.
I will not (interfere with/stop) [IDM] robbers when they enter my sacred temple and desecrate it.
23 Fac conclusionem, quoniam terra plena est judicio sanguinum, et civitas plena iniquitate.
Prepare chains to be fastened on you. People are being murdered [MTY] throughout the country, and people are acting violently throughout the city.
24 Et adducam pessimos de gentibus, et possidebunt domos eorum: et quiescere faciam superbiam potentium, et possidebunt sanctuaria eorum.
So I will bring armies of the nations whose people are extremely wicked to occupy the houses of the Israeli people. I will cause Israeli [who think that they] are [IRO] strong/mighty to no longer be proud. Your enemies will cause your places of worship to no longer be acceptable to be used.
25 Angustia superveniente, requirent pacem, et non erit.
When your enemies cause you to be terrified, you will plead for them to make peace, but there will be no peace.
26 Conturbatio super conturbationem veniet, et auditus super auditum: et quærent visionem de propheta, et lex peribit a sacerdote, et consilium a senioribus.
You will experience many disasters, and you will continually hear [about disasters that are happening in other places]. People will plead with prophets to tell them what visions they have received, [but the prophets will not have received any visions]. Priests will no longer teach people the [that I gave to Moses].
27 Rex lugebit, et princeps induetur mœrore, et manus populi terræ conturbabuntur: secundum viam eorum faciam eis, et secundum judicia eorum judicabo eos, et scient quia ego Dominus.
Your king will mourn, and his son will no [longer] [that good things will happen]. The hands of people throughout the country will tremble. And I will do to them what they deserve for their wicked behavior. I will [and condemn] them the same way they have [and condemned] others. Then they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
