Hiezechielis Prophetæ 7
1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
Moreover the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
2 Et tu fili hominis, haec dicit Dominus Deus terrae Israel: Finis venit, venit finis super quattuor plagas terrae.
Also thou sonne of man, thus saith the Lord God, An ende is come vnto the lande of Israel: the ende is come vpon the foure corners of the lande.
3 Nunc finis super te, et immittam furorem meum in te: et iudicabo te iuxta vias tuas: et ponam contra te omnes abominationes tuas.
Nowe is the ende come vpon thee, and I wil sende my wrath vpon thee, and will iudge thee according to thy wayes, and will laye vpon thee all thine abominations.
4 Et non parcet oculus meus super te, et non miserebor: sed vias tuas ponam super te, et abominationes tuae in medio tui erunt: et scietis quia ego Dominus.
Neither shall mine eye spare thee, neither will I haue pitie: but I will laye thy waies vpon thee: and thine abomination shall bee in the middes of thee, and yee shall knowe that I am the Lord.
5 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Afflictio una, afflictio ecce venit.
Thus saith the Lord God, Beholde, one euil, euen one euill is come.
6 finis venit, venit finis, evigilavit adversum te: ecce venit.
An ende is come, the end is come, it watched for thee: beholde, it is come.
7 Venit contritio super te, qui habitas in terra: venit tempus, prope est dies occisionis, et non gloriae montium.
The morning is come vnto thee, that dwellest in the lande: the time is come, the day of trouble is neere, and not the sounding againe of the mountaines.
8 Nunc de propinquo effundam iram meam super te, et complebo furorem meum in te: et iudicabo te iuxta vias tuas, et imponam tibi omnia scelera tua:
Now I will shortly powre out my wrath vpon thee, and fulfil mine anger vpon thee: I will iudge thee according to thy wayes, and will lay vpon thee all thine abominations.
9 Et non parcet oculus meus, nec miserebor, sed vias tuas imponam tibi, et abominationes tuae in medio tui erunt: et scietis quia ego sum Dominus percutiens.
Neither shall mine eie spare thee, neither will I haue pitie, but I will laye vpon thee according to thy wayes, and thine abominations shalbe in the middes of thee, and ye shall knowe that I am the Lord that smiteth.
10 Ecce dies, ecce venit: egressa est contritio, floruit virga, germinavit superbia:
Beholde, the day, beholde, it is come: the morning is gone forth, the rod florisheth: pride hath budded.
11 Iniquitas surrexit in virga impietatis: non ex eis, et non ex populo, neque ex sonitu eorum: et non erit requies in eis.
Crueltie is risen vp into a rod of wickednes: none of them shall remaine, nor of their riches, nor of any of theirs, neither shall there bee lamentation for them.
12 Venit tempus, appropinquavit dies: qui emit, non laetetur: et qui vendit, non lugeat: quia ira super omnem populum eius.
The time is come, the day draweth neere: let not the byer reioyce, nor let him that selleth, mourne: for the wrath is vpon al the multitude thereof.
13 Quia qui vendit, ad id, quod vendidit, non revertetur, et adhuc in viventibus vita eorum. visio enim ad omnem multitudinem eius non regredietur: et vir in iniquitate vitae suae non confortabitur.
For hee that selleth, shall not returne to that which is solde, although they were yet aliue: for the vision was vnto al the multitude thereof, and they returned not, neither doeth any encourage himselfe in the punishment of his life.
14 Canite tuba, praeparentur omnes, et non est qui vadat ad praelium: ira enim mea super universum populum eius.
They haue blowen the trumpet, and prepared all, but none goeth to the battel: for my wrath is vpon all the multitude thereof.
15 Gladium foris: et pestis, et fames intrinsecus: qui in agro est, gladio morietur: et qui in civitate, pestilentia, et fame devorabuntur.
The sword is without, and the pestilence, and the famine within: he that is in the field, shall dye with the sword, and he that is in the citie, famine and pestilence shall deuoure him.
16 Et salvabuntur qui fugerint ex eis: et erunt in montibus quasi columbae convallium omnes trepidi, unusquisque in iniquitate sua.
But they that flee away from them, shall escape, and shalbe in the mountaines, like the doues of the valleis: all they shall mourne, euery one for his iniquitie.
17 Omnes manus dissolventur, et omnia genua fluent aquis.
All handes shalbe weake, and all knees shall fall away as water.
18 Et accingent se ciliciis, et operiet eos formido, et in omni facie confusio, et in universis capitibus eorum calvitium.
They shall also girde them selues with sackecloth, and feare shall couer them, and shame shalbe vpon all faces, and baldnes vpon their heads.
19 Argentum eorum foras proiicietur, et aurum eorum in sterquilinium erit. Argentum eorum, et aurum eorum non valebit liberare eos in die furoris Domini. Animam suam non saturabunt, et ventres eorum non implebuntur: quia scandalum iniquitatis eorum factum est.
They shall cast their siluer in the streetes, and their golde shalbe cast farre off: their siluer and their gold can not deliuer them in the day of the wrath of the Lord: they shall not satisfie their soules, neither fill their bowels: for this ruine is for their iniquitie.
20 Et ornamentum monilium suorum in superbiam posuerunt, et imagines abominationum suarum, et simulachrorum fecerunt ex eo: propter hoc dedi eis illud in immunditiam:
He had also set the beautie of his ornament in maiestie: but they made images of their abominations, and of their idoles therein: therefore haue I set it farre from them.
21 et dabo illud in manus alienorum ad diripiendum, et impiis terrae in praedam, et contaminabunt illud.
And I will giue it into the handes of the strangers to be spoyled, and to the wicked of the earth to be robbed, and they shall pollute it.
22 Et avertam faciem meam ab eis, et violabunt arcanum meum: et introibunt in illud emissarii, et contaminabunt illud.
My face will I turne also from them, and they shall pollute my secret place: for the destroyers shall enter into it, and defile it.
23 Fac conclusionem: quoniam terra plena est iudicio sanguinum, et civitas plena iniquitate.
Make a chaine: for the lande is full of the iudgement of blood, and the citie is full of crueltie.
24 Et adducam pessimos de Gentibus, et possidebunt domos eorum. et quiescere faciam superbiam potentium, et possidebunt sanctuaria eorum.
Wherefore I will bring the most wicked of the heathen, and they shall possesse their houses: I will also make the pompe of the mightie to cease, and their holie places shalbe defiled.
25 Angustia superveniente, requirent pacem, et non erit.
When destruction commeth, they shall seeke peace, and shall not haue it.
26 Conturbatio super conturbationem veniet, et auditus super auditum: et quaerent visionem de propheta, et lex peribit a sacerdote, et consilium a senioribus.
Calamitie shall come vpon calamitie, and rumour shall bee vpon rumour: then shall they seeke a vision of the Prophet: but the Lawe shall perish from the Priest, and counsel from the Ancient.
27 Rex lugebit, et princeps induetur moerore, et manus populi terrae conturbabuntur. Secundum viam eorum faciam eis, et secundum iudicia eorum iudicabo eos: et scient quia ego Dominus.
The King shall mourne, and the prince shall be clothed with desolation, and the handes of the people in the land shall be troubled: I wil doe vnto them according to their waies, and according to their iudgements will I iudge them, and they shall knowe that I am the Lord.
