Hiezechielis Prophetæ 30
1 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
2 Fili hominis propheta, et dic: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ululate, vae, vae diei:
"Son of man, prophesy, and say, 'Thus says the LORD: "Wail, 'Alas for the day.'
3 quia iuxta est dies, et appropinquat dies Domini: dies nubis, tempus Gentium erit.
For the day is near, even the day of the LORD is near; it shall be a day of clouds, a time of 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.
A sword shall come on Egypt, and anguish shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt; and they shall take away her multitude, and her 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 mixed people, and Cub, and the children of the land that is allied with them, 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 says the LORD: 'They also who uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword,' says the LORD.
7 et dissipabuntur in medio terrarum desolatarum, et urbes eius in medio civitatum desertarum erunt.
'They shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate; and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.
8 Et scient quia ego Dominus: cum dedero ignem in Aegypto, et attriti fuerint omnes auxiliatores eius.
They shall know that I am the LORD, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and all her helpers are destroyed.
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 shall messengers go forth from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid; and there shall be anguish on them, as in the day of Egypt; for, look, it comes.'
10 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: cessare faciam multitudinem Aegypti in manu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis.
"Thus says the LORD: 'I will also make 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 the nations, shall be brought in to destroy the land; and they shall draw their swords against Egypt, and 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.
I will make the rivers dry, and will sell the land into the hand of evil men; and I will make the land desolate, and all that is in 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 says the LORD: 'I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause the images to cease from Memphis; and there shall be no more a prince from the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
14 Et disperdam terram Phathures, et dabo ignem in Taphnis, et faciam iudicia in Alexandria.
I will make Pathros desolate, and will set a fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments on No.
15 Et effundam indignationem meam super Pelusium robur Aegypti, et interficiam multitudinem Alexandriae,
I will pour my wrath on 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.
I will set a fire in Egypt: Sin shall be in great anguish, and No shall be broken up; and Memphis shall have adversaries in the daytime.
17 Iuvenes Heliopoleos, et Bubasti gladio cadent, et ipsae captivae ducentur.
The young men of On and of Pi-beseth shall fall by the sword; and these cities 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.
At Tehaphnehes also the day shall withdraw itself, when I shall break there the yokes of Egypt, and the pride of her power shall cease in her: 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:
It happened in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of the LORD came to 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, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and look, it has not been bound up, to apply healing medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it be strong to hold 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 says the LORD: 'Look, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong arm, and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
23 et dispergam Aegyptum in Gentibus, et ventilabo eos in terris.
I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and 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.
I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand: but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.
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.
I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon; and the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it out on the land of Egypt.
26 Et dispergam Aegyptum in nationes, et ventilabo eos in terras, et scient quia ego Dominus.
I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them through the countries; and they shall know that I am the LORD.'"
