Hiezechielis Prophetæ 39

1 Tu autem fili hominis vaticinare adversum Gog, et dices: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego super te Gog principem capitis Mosoch et Thubal:

Therefore, thou son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, Thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal:

2 et circumagam te, et seducam te, et ascendere te faciam de lateribus Aquilonis: et adducam te super montes Israel.

And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel:

3 Et percutiam arcum tuum in manu sinistra tua, et sagittas tuas de manu dextera tua deiiciam.

And I will smite thy bow out of thy left hand, and will cause thine arrows to fall out of thy right hand.

4 Super montes Israel cades tu, et omnia agmina tua, et populi tui, qui sunt tecum: feris, avibus, omnique volatili, et bestiis terrae dedi te ad devorandum.

Thou shalt fall upon the mountains of Israel, thou, and all thy bands, and the people that is with thee: I will give thee unto the ravenous birds of every sort, and to the beasts of the field to be devoured.

5 Super faciem agri cades: quia ego locutus sum, ait Dominus Deus.

Thou shalt fall upon the open field: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord Yhwh.

6 Et immittam ignem in Magog, et in his, qui habitant in insulis confidenter: et scient quia ego Dominus.

And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am Yhwh.

7 Et nomen sanctum meum notum faciam in medio populi mei Israel, et non polluam nomen sanctum meum amplius: et scient Gentes quia ego Dominus sanctus Israel.

So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more: and the heathen shall know that I am Yhwh, the Holy One in Israel.

8 Ecce venit, et factum est, ait Dominus Deus: haec est dies, de qua locutus sum.

Behold, it is come, and it is done, saith the Lord Yhwh; this is the day whereof I have spoken.

9 Et egredientur habitatores de civitatibus Israel, et succendent et comburent arma, clypeum, et hastas, arcum, et sagittas, et baculos manuum, et contos: et succendent ea igne septem annis.

And they that dwell in the cities of Israel shall go forth, and shall set on fire and burn the weapons, both the shields and the bucklers, the bows and the arrows, and the handstaves, and the spears, and they shall burn them with fire seven years:

10 Et non portabunt ligna de regionibus, neque succident de saltibus: quoniam arma succendent igne, et depraedabuntur eos, quibus praedae fuerant, et diripient vastatores suos, ait Dominus Deus.

So that they shall take no wood out of the field, neither cut down any out of the forests; for they shall burn the weapons with fire: and they shall spoil those that spoiled them, and rob those that robbed them, saith the Lord Yhwh.

11 Et erit in die illa: dabo Gog locum nominatum sepulchrum in Israel: vallem viatorum ad Orientem maris, quae obstupescere faciet praetereuntes: et sepelient ibi Gog, et omnem multitudinem eius, et vocabitur vallis multitudinis Gog.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of them that pass through on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of them that pass through: and there shall they bury Gog and all his multitude: and they shall call it The valley of Hamon–gog.

12 Et sepelient eos domus Israel, ut mundent terram septem mensibus.

And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.

13 Sepeliet autem eum omnis populus terrae, et erit eis nominata dies, in qua glorificatus sum, ait Dominus Deus.

Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the Lord Yhwh.

14 Et viros iugiter constituent lustrantes terram, qui sepeliant, et requirant eos, qui remanserant super faciem terrae, ut emundent eam: post menses autem septem quaerere incipient.

And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through the land to bury with them passing by those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search.

15 Et circuibunt peragrantes terram: cumque viderint os hominis, statuent iuxta illud titulum, donec sepeliant illud pollinctores in valle multitudinis Gog.

And they that pass through the land, when any seeth a man’s bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamon–gog.

16 Nomen autem civitatis Amona, et mundabunt terram.

And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.

17 Tu ergo fili hominis, haec dicit Dominus Deus: Dic omni volucri, et universis avibus, cunctisque bestiis agri: Convenite, properate, concurrite undique ad victimam meam, quam ego immolo vobis, victimam grandem super montes Israel: ut comedatis carnem, et bibatis sanguinem.

And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.

18 Carnes fortium comedetis, et sanguinem principum terrae bibetis: arietum, et agnorum, et hircorum, taurorumque et altilium, et pinguium omnium.

Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.

19 Et comedetis adipem in saturitatem, et bibetis sanguinem in ebrietatem, de victima, quam ego immolabo vobis:

And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.

20 et saturabimini super mensam meam de equo, et equite forti, et de universis viris bellatoribus, ait Dominus Deus.

Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord Yhwh.

21 Et ponam gloriam meam in Gentibus: et videbunt omnes gentes iudicium meum, quod fecerim, et manum meam, quam posuerim super eos.

And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.

22 Et scient domus Israel quia ego Dominus Deus eorum a die illa, et deinceps.

So the house of Israel shall know that I am Yhwh their God from that day and forward.

23 Et scient Gentes quoniam in iniquitate sua capta sit domus Israel, eo quod dereliquerint me, et absconderim faciem meam ab eis: et tradiderim eos in manus hostium, et ceciderint in gladio universi.

And the heathen shall know that the house of Israel went into captivity for their iniquity: because they trespassed against me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of their enemies: so fell they all by the sword.

24 Iuxta immunditiam eorum, et scelus feci eis, et abscondi faciem meam ab illis.

According to their uncleanness and according to their transgressions have I done unto them, and hid my face from them.

25 Propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus: Nunc reducam captivitatem Iacob, et miserebor omnis domus Israel: et assumam zelum pro nomine sancto meo.

Therefore thus saith the Lord Yhwh; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name;

26 Et portabunt confusionem suam, et omnem praevaricationem, qua praevaricati sunt in me, cum habitaverint in terra sua confidenter neminem formidantes:

After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid.

27 et reduxero eos de populis, et congregavero de terris inimicorum suorum, et sanctificatus fuero in eis, in oculis gentium plurimarum.

When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations;

28 Et scient quia ego Dominus Deus eorum, eo quod transtulerim eos in nationes; et congregaverim eos super terram suam, et non dereliquerim quemquam ex eis ibi.

Then shall they know that I am Yhwh their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.

29 Et non abscondam ultra faciem meam ab eis, eo quod effuderim spiritum meum super omnem domum Israel, ait Dominus Deus.

Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord Yhwh.
