Hiezechielis Prophetæ 30
1 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 Fili hominis propheta, et dic: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ululate, vae, vae diei:
Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Wail ye, Woe unto the day!
3 quia iuxta est dies, et appropinquat dies Domini: dies nubis, tempus Gentium erit.
For nigh is the day, yea nigh is the day of the Lord; a cloudy day; the time of the nations' [misfortune] shall it be.
4 Et veniet gladius in Aegyptum: et erit pavor in Aethiopia, cum ceciderint vulnerati in Aegypto, et ablata fuerit multitudo illius, et destructa fundamenta eius.
And the sword shall come into Egypt, and there shall be trembling in Ethiopia, when the slain fall in Egypt, and when they take away its multitude, and its foundations shall be broken down.
5 Aethiopia, et Libya, et Lydi, et omne reliquum vulgus, et Chub, et filii terrae foederis, cum eis gladio cadent.
Ethiopia, and Put, and Lud, and all the confederates, and Cub, and all the men of the leagued land, shall fall with them by the sword.
6 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Et corruent fulcientes Aegyptum, et destruetur superbia imperii eius: a turre Syenes gladio cadent in ea, ait Dominus Deus exercituum.
Thus hath said the Lord, Yea, there shall fall those that uphold Egypt; and there shall come down the pride of her strength: from Migdol to Seveneh shall they fall in her by the sword, saith the Lord Eternal.
7 et dissipabuntur in medio terrarum desolatarum, et urbes eius in medio civitatum desertarum erunt.
And they shall be made desolate in the midst of the desolate countries, and its cities shall be counted in the midst of the cities that have been laid in ruins.
8 Et scient quia ego Dominus: cum dedero ignem in Aegypto, et attriti fuerint omnes auxiliatores eius.
And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I set fire to Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be broken.
9 In die illa egredientur nuncii a facie mea in trieribus ad conterendam Aethiopiae confidentiam, et erit pavor in eis in die Aegypti, quia absque dubio veniet.
On that day shall messengers go forth from my presence in ships to terrify the secure Ethiopians, and there shall be trembling among them, as on the day of Egypt; for, lo, it cometh.
10 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: cessare faciam multitudinem Aegypti in manu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis.
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will also cause the multitude of Egypt to cease through the hand of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon.
11 Ipse et populus eius cum eo fortissimi Gentium adducentur ad disperdendam terram: et evaginabunt gladios suos super Aegyptum: et implebunt terram interfectis.
He and his people with him, the fiercest of nations, shall be brought to destroy the land; and they shall draw their swords against Egypt, and they shall fill the land with the slain.
12 Et faciam alveos fluminum aridos, et tradam terram in manus pessimorum: et dissipabo terram, et plenitudinem eius manu alienorum, ego Dominus locutus sum.
And I will render the streams dry, and sell the land into the hand of evil men; and I will make the land desolate, and all that filleth it, by the hand of strangers: I the Lord have spoken it.
13 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Et disperdam simulachra, et cessare faciam idola de Memphis: et dux de Terra Aegypti non erit amplius: et dabo terrorem in Terra Aegypti.
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause false gods to cease out of Noph; and a prince out of the land of Egypt shall there not be any more: and I will lay fear on the land of Egypt.
14 Et disperdam terram Phathures, et dabo ignem in Taphnis, et faciam iudicia in Alexandria.
And I will make Pathros desolate, and set fire to Zo'an; and I will execute judgments in No.
15 Et effundam indignationem meam super Pelusium robur Aegypti, et interficiam multitudinem Alexandriae,
And I will pour my fury over Sin, the stronghold of Egypt; and I will cut off the multitude of No.
16 et dabo ignem in Aegypto: quasi parturiens dolebit Pelusium, et Alexandria erit dissipata, et in Memphis angustiae quotidianae.
And I will set fire to Egypt: Sin shall have great pain, and No shall be broken in, and [over] Noph shall the besiegers [prevail] by broad day.
17 Iuvenes Heliopoleos, et Bubasti gladio cadent, et ipsae captivae ducentur.
The young men of Aven and of Pi-besseth shall fall by the sword; and they themselves shall go into captivity.
18 Et in Taphnis nigrescet dies, cum contrivero ibi sceptra Aegypti, et defecerit in ea superbia potentiae eius: ipsam nubes operiet, filiae autem eius in captivitatem ducentur.
And at Thechaphneches the day shall be darkened, when I break there the yoke-bars of Egypt, and the pride of her strength ceaseth therein: as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go into captivity.
19 Et iudicia faciam in Aegypto: et scient quia ego Dominus.
Thus will I execute judgments on Egypt: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
20 Et factum est in undecimo anno, in primo mense, in septima mensis, factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, on the seventh day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
21 Fili hominis brachium Pharaonis regis Aegypti confregi: et ecce non est obvolutum ut restitueretur ei sanitas, ut ligaretur pannis, et fasciaretur linteolis, ut recepto robore posset tenere gladium.
Son of man, the arm of Pharaoh the king of Egypt have I broken; and lo, it shall not be bound up to apply remedies, to put on a bandage to bind it up, to make it strong that it may grasp the sword.
22 Propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ad Pharaonem regem Aegypti, et comminuam brachium eius forte, sed confractum: et deiiciam gladium de manu eius:
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will be against Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and will break his arms, both the strong, and that which was already broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
23 et dispergam Aegyptum in Gentibus, et ventilabo eos in terris.
And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and I will disperse them through the countries.
24 Et confortabo brachia regis Babylonis, daboque gladium meum in manu eius: et confringam brachia Pharaonis, et gement gemitibus interfecti coram facie eius.
And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and will put my sword in his hand; but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he shall groan, with the groanings of a deadly wounded man before him.
25 Et confortabo brachia regis Babylonis, et brachia Pharaonis concident: et scient quia ego Dominus, cum dedero gladium meum in manu regis Babylonis, et extenderit eum super Terram Aegypti.
Yea I will make strong the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I place my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, that he may stretch it out over the land of Egypt.
26 Et dispergam Aegyptum in nationes, et ventilabo eos in terras, et scient quia ego Dominus.
And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them among the countries: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
