Hiezechielis Prophetæ 25
1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
2 Fili hominis pone faciem tuam contra filios Ammon, et prophetabis de eis.
Son of man Set thy face against the sons of Ammon, — and prophesy against them.
3 Et dices filiis Ammon: Audite verbum Domini Dei: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod dixisti: Euge, euge super sanctuarium meum, quia pollutum est: et super terram Israel, quoniam desolata est: et super domum Iuda, quoniam ducti sunt in captivitatem:
So then thou shalt say to the sons of Ammon, Hear ye the word of My Lord Yahweh: Thus, saith My Lord. Yahweh: Because thou saidst Aha! Against my sanctuary when it was profaned. And against the soil of Israel when it was laid waste, And against the house of Judah when they went into exile.
4 Idcirco ego tradam te filiis orientalibus in hereditatem, et collocabunt caulas suas in te, et ponent in te tentoria sua: ipsi comedent fruges tuas: et ipsi bibent lac tuum.
Therefore, behold me! delivering thee up to the Sons of the East for a possession And they shall set their encampments in thee, And place in thee their habitations, They, shall eat thy fruits, And they, shall drink thy milk;
5 Daboque Rabbath in habitaculum camelorum, et filios Ammon in cubile pecorum: et scietis quia ego Dominus.
And I will make of Rabbah a home for camels, And the sons of Ammon a couching-place for flocks, So shall ye know that, I, am Yahweh.
6 Quia haec dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod plausisti manu, et percussisti pede, et gavisa es ex toto affectu super terram Israel:
For, thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, Because thou didst clap thy hands and stamp with thy foot, —and didst rejoice with all thy contempt in thy soul, against the soil of Israel.
7 idcirco ecce ego extendam manum meam super te, et tradam te in direptionem Gentium, et interficiam te de populis, et perdam de terris, et conteram: et scies quia ego Dominus.
Therefore behold me! I have stretched out my hand over thee And will deliver thee for a prey to the nations, And will cut thee off from among the peoples, And will cause thee to perish from among the lands, — I will destroy thee, So shalt thou know that, I, am Yahweh.
8 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod dixerunt Moab, et Seir: Ecce sicut omnes Gentes, domus Iuda:
Thus saith My Lord Yahweh: Because Moab and Seir say, Lo! like all the nations, is the house of Judah.
9 idcirco ecce ego aperiam humerum Moab de civitatibus, de civitatibus, inquam, eius, et de finibus eius inclytas terrae Bethiesimoth, et Beelmeon, et Cariathaim,
Therefore, behold me! laying open the side of Moab out of the cities, Out of his cities on his frontiers, The beauty of the land of Beth-jeshimoth, Baal-meon, and Kiriathaim:
10 filios Orientis cum filiis Ammon, et dabo eam in hereditatem: ut non sit ultra memoria filiorum Ammon in Gentibus.
To the Sons of the East [when they come] against the sons of Ammon, and I will deliver it up for possession, -to the end the sons of Ammon may not be remembered among the nations:
11 Et in Moab faciam iudicia: et scient quia ego Dominus.
Also upon Moab, will I execute judgments, - So shall they know that I, am Yahweh.
12 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod fecit Idumaea ultionem ut se vindicaret de filiis Iuda, peccavitque delinquens, et vindictam expetivit de eis;
Thus, saith My Lord. Yahweh, Because of what Edom hath done, in taking vengeance on the house of Judah, so that they have become guilty again and again and have taken vengeance upon them,
13 idcirco haec dicit Dominus Deus: Extendam manum meam super Idumaeam, et auferam de ea hominem, et iumentum, et faciam eam desertam ab Austro: et qui sunt in Dedan, gladio cadent.
Therefore, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, I will therefore stretch forth my hand over Edom, and will cut off therefrom man and beast, And will deliver it up as a desolation, from Teman, And they of Dedan, by the sword, shall fall,
14 Et dabo ultionem meam super Idumaeam per manum populi mei Israel: et facient in Edom iuxta iram meam, et furorem meum: et scient vindictam meam, dicit Dominus Deus.
And I will put forth mine avenging against Edom, by the hand of my people Israel, And they shall deal with Edom, according to mine anger and according to mine indignation, - So shall they know mine avenging, Declareth My Lord. Yahweh,
15 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod fecerunt Palaestini vindictam, et ulti se sunt toto animo, interficientes, et implentes inimicitias veteres:
Thus saith My Lord Yahweh, Because of what the Philistines have done by way of vengeance, - In that they have taken vengeance with contempt in the soul, to destroy, with the enmity of age-past times.
16 propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego extendam manum meam super Palaestinos, et interficiam interfectores, et perdam reliquias maritimae regionis:
Therefore, Thus, saith My Lord. Yahweh, Behold me! stretching forth my hand over the Philistines, And I will cut off the Cherethim, — And will cause to perish the remnant of the coast of the sea;
17 faciamque in eis ultiones magnas arguens in furore: et scient quia ego Dominus, cum dedero vindictam meam super eos.
And I will execute upon them great vengeance, with rebukes of indignation: shall they know that I am Yahweh, when I put forth mine avenging against them.
