Hiezechielis Prophetæ 30
1 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
2 Fili hominis propheta, et dic: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ululate, vae, vae diei:
“Son of man, prophesy, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: Howl, Aah! For the day!
3 quia iuxta est dies, et appropinquat dies Domini: dies nubis, tempus Gentium erit.
For a day [is] near, a day [is] near to YHWH! It is a time of cloud [over] the nations.
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 a sword has come into Egypt, And there has been great pain in Cush, In the falling of the wounded in Egypt, And they have taken its store, And its foundations have been broken down.
5 Aethiopia, et Libya, et Lydi, et omne reliquum vulgus, et Chub, et filii terrae foederis, cum eis gladio cadent.
Cush, and Phut, and Lud, and all the mixture, and Chub, And the sons of the land of the covenant fall by sword with them,
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 said YHWH: And those supporting Egypt have fallen, And the arrogance of her strength has come down, From Migdol to Syene, they fall by sword in her, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
7 et dissipabuntur in medio terrarum desolatarum, et urbes eius in medio civitatum desertarum erunt.
And they have been desolated in the midst of desolate lands, And its cities are in the midst of cities [that are] laid waste.
8 Et scient quia ego Dominus: cum dedero ignem in Aegypto, et attriti fuerint omnes auxiliatores eius.
And they have known that I [am] YHWH, In My giving fire against Egypt, And all her helpers have been 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.
In that day messengers go forth from before Me in ships, To trouble confident Cush, And there has been great pain among them, As the day of Egypt, for behold, it has come.
10 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: cessare faciam multitudinem Aegypti in manu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis.
Thus said Lord YHWH: I have caused the multitude of Egypt to cease, By the hand of Nebuchadnezzar 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 terrible of nations, Are brought in to destroy the land, And they have drawn their swords against Egypt, And have filled the land [with] the wounded.
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 have made floods a dry place, And I have sold the land into the hand of evildoers, And I have made the land desolate, And its fullness, by the hand of strangers, I, YHWH, have spoken.
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 said Lord YHWH: And I have destroyed idols, And caused vain things to cease from Noph, And there is no longer a prince of the land of Egypt, And I give fear in the land of Egypt.
14 Et disperdam terram Phathures, et dabo ignem in Taphnis, et faciam iudicia in Alexandria.
And I have made Pathros desolate, And I have given fire against Zoan, And I have done judgments in No,
15 Et effundam indignationem meam super Pelusium robur Aegypti, et interficiam multitudinem Alexandriae,
And I have poured out My fury on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt, And I have 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 have given fire against Egypt, Sin is greatly pained, and No is to be broken, And Noph has daily distresses.
17 Iuvenes Heliopoleos, et Bubasti gladio cadent, et ipsae captivae ducentur.
The youths of Aven and Pi-Beseth fall by sword, And these 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 the day has been dark in Tehaphnehes, In My breaking the yokes of Egypt there, And the excellence of her strength has ceased in her, Her! A cloud covers her, And her daughters go into captivity.
19 Et iudicia faciam in Aegypto: et scient quia ego Dominus.
And I have done judgments in Egypt, And they have known that I [am] YHWH.”
20 Et factum est in undecimo anno, in primo mense, in septima mensis, factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
And it comes to pass, in the eleventh year, in the first [month], on the seventh of the month, a word of YHWH has been to me, saying, “Son of man,
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.
I have broken the arm of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And behold, it has not been bound up to give healing, To put a bandage to bind it, To strengthen it—to lay hold on 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 said Lord YHWH: Behold, I [am] against Pharaoh, king of Egypt, And I have broken his arms, The strong one and the broken one, And have caused the sword to fall out of his hand,
23 et dispergam Aegyptum in Gentibus, et ventilabo eos in terris.
And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And have spread them through lands,
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 have strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And have given My sword into his hand, And I have broken the arms of Pharaoh, And he has groaned the groans of a pierced one—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.
And I have strengthened the arms of the king of Babylon, And the arms of Pharaoh fall down, And they have known that I [am] YHWH, In My giving My sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he has stretched it out toward the land of Egypt.
26 Et dispergam Aegyptum in nationes, et ventilabo eos in terras, et scient quia ego Dominus.
And I have scattered the Egyptians among nations, And I have spread them through lands, And they have known that I [am] YHWH!”
