Prophetia Ezechielis

Ezekiel

1

Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

Et facto es sermone de Domino ad me, dicente:

2

Fili hominis, duæ mulieres filiæ matris unius fuerunt:

Son of man, there were two women, daughters of one mother.

Filio de homine, duo muliere filias de matre de uno es:

3

et fornicatæ sunt in Ægypto, in adolescentia sua fornicatæ sunt: ibi subacta sunt ubera earum, et fractæ sunt mammæ pubertatis earum.

And they committed fornication in Egypt, in their youth they committed fornication: there were their breasts pressed down, and the teats of their virginity were bruised.

Et fornicor es in Aegypto, in adolescentia suo fornicor es: ibi subige es uberes de illas, et frange es mammas de pubertate de illas.

4

Nomina autem earum, Oolla major, et Ooliba soror ejus minor: et habui eas, et pepererunt filios et filias. Porro earum nomina, Samaria Oolla, et Jerusalem Ooliba.

And their names were Oolla the elder, and Ooliba her younger sister: and I took them, and they bore sons and daughters. Now for their names, Samaria is Oolla, and Jerusalem is Ooliba.

Nomines autem de illas, Oolla magna, et Ooliba sorore de illo minimo: et habe illas, et peri filios et filias. Porro de illas nomines, Samaria Oolla, et Ierusalem Ooliba.

5

Fornicata est igitur super me Oolla, et insanivit in amatores suos, in Assyrios propinquantes,

And Oolla committed fornication against me, and doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians that came to her,

Fornicor es ergo super me Oolla, et insani in amatores suo, in Assyriis propinqua,

6

vestitos hyacintho, principes et magistratus, juvenes cupidinis, universos equites, ascensores equorum.

Who were clothed with blue, princes, and rulers, beautiful youths, all horsemen, mounted upon horses.

Vestie hyacintho, principes et magistratus, iuvene de cupedine, universa equites, ascensores de equos.

7

Et dedit fornicationes suas super eos electos, filios Assyriorum universos: et in omnibus in quos insanivit, in immunditiis eorum polluta est.

And she committed her fornications with those chosen men, all sons of the Assyrians: and she defiled herself with the uncleanness of all them on whom she doted.

Et da fornicationes suo super illos elige, filios de Assyriis universa: et in omni in que insani, in immunditias de illos pollue es.

8

Insuper et fornicationes suas, quas habuerat in Ægypto, non reliquit: nam et illi dormierunt cum ea in adolescentia ejus, et illi confregerunt ubera pubertatis ejus, et effuderunt fornicationem suam super eam.

Moreover also she did not forsake her fornications which she had committed in Egypt: for they also lay with her in her youth, and they bruised the breasts of her virginity, and poured out their fornication upon her.

Insuper et fornicationes suo, que habe in Aegypto, non relinque: nam et illo dormi cum illa in adolescentia de illo, et illo confrige uberes de pubertate de illo, et effunde fornicatione suo super illa.

9

Propterea tradidi eam in manus amatorum suorum, in manus filiorum Assur, super quorum insanivit libidine.

Therefore have I delivered her into the hands of her lovers, into the hands of the sons of the Assyrians, upon whose lust she doted.

Propter hoc trade illa in manus de amatos suo, in manus de filios Assure, super que insani libidine.

10

Ipsi discooperuerunt ignominiam ejus, filios et filias ejus tulerunt, et ipsam occiderunt gladio: et factæ sunt famosæ mulieres, et judicia perpetraverunt in ea.

They discovered her disgrace, took away her sons and daughters, and slew her with the sword: and they became infamous women, and they executed judgments in her.

Ipso disce ignominia de illo, filios et filias de illo fer, et ipso occide gladio: et fac es famoso mulieres, et iudicios perpetra in illa.

11

Quod cum vidisset soror ejus Ooliba, plus quam illa insanivit libidine, et fornicationem suam super fornicationem sororis suæ:

And when her sister Ooliba saw this, she was mad with lust more than she: and she carried her fornication beyond the fornication of her sister.

Sorore cum de illo Ooliba vide quod, plus quam illa insani libidine, et fornicatione suo super fornicatione de sorore suo:

12

ad filios Assyriorum præbuit impudenter, ducibus et magistratibus ad se venientibus, indutis veste varia, equitibus qui vectabantur equis, et adolescentibus forma cunctis egregia.

Impudently prostituting herself to the children of the Assyrians, the princes, and rulers that came to her, clothed with divers colours, to the horsemen that rode upon horses, and to young men all of great beauty.

Ad filios de Assyriis praebe impudenter, duces et magistratus ad se veni, indue veste varia, equites qui vecta equos, et adolesce forma cuncta egregio.

13

Et vidi quod polluta esset via una ambarum.

And I saw that she was defiled, and that they both took one way.

Et vide quod pollue es via uno amba.

14

Et auxit fornicationes suas: cumque vidisset viros depictos in pariete, imagines Chaldæorum expressas coloribus,

And she increased her fornications: and when she had seen men painted on the wall, the images of the Chaldeans set forth in colours,

Et auge fornicationes suo: cumque vide viros depica in pariete, imagines de Chaldaeis exprime colores,

15

et accinctos balteis renes, et tiaras tinctas in capitibus eorum, formam ducum omnium, similitudinem filiorum Babylonis, terræque Chaldæorum, in qua orti sunt,

And girded with girdles about their reins, and with dyed turbans on their heads, the resemblance of all the captains, the likeness of the sons of Babylon, and of the land of the Chaldeans wherein they were born,

Et accinge balteas renes, et tiaras tinge in capites de illos, forma de ducos de omni, similitudine de filios de Babylone, et de terra de Chaldaeis, in quo ori es,

16

insanivit super eos concupiscentia oculorum suorum, et misit nuntios ad eos in Chaldæam.

She doted upon them with the lust of her eyes, and she sent messengers to them into Chaldea.

Concupiscentia super illos de oculos suo insani, et mitte nuntios ad illos in Chaldaea.

17

Cumque venissent ad eam filii Babylonis ad cubile mammarum, polluerunt eam stupris suis: et polluta est ab eis, et saturata est anima ejus ab illis.

And when the sons of Babylon were come to her to the bed of love, they defiled her with their fornications, and she was polluted by them, and her soul was glutted with them.

Cumque filios ad illa de Babylone veni ad cubili de mammas, pollue illa stupros suo: et pollue es ab illos, et satura es anima de illo ab illos.

18

Denudavit quoque fornicationes suas, et discooperuit ignominiam suam: et recessit anima mea ab ea, sicut recesserat anima mea a sorore ejus:

And she discovered her fornications, and discovered her disgrace: and my soul was alienated from her, as my soul was alienated from her sister.

Denuda etiam fornicationes suo, et disce ignominia suo: et anima meo recede ab illa, sicut anima meo recede ab sorore de illo:

19

multiplicavit enim fornicationes suas, recordans dies adolescentiæ suæ, quibus fornicata est in terra Ægypti.

For she multiplied her fornications, remembering the days of her youth, in which she played the harlot in the land of Egypt.

Multiplica nam fornicationes suo, recordor dies de adolescentia suo, ad que fornicor es in terra de Aegypto.

20

Et insanivit libidine super concubitum eorum, quorum carnes sunt ut carnes asinorum, et sicut fluxus equorum fluxus eorum.

And she was mad with lust after lying with them whose flesh is as the flesh of asses: and whose issue as the issue of horses.

Et insani libidine super concubitu de illos, de que carnes es ut carnes de asinos, et sicut fluxus de equos fluxu de illos.

21

Et visitasti scelus adolescentiæ tuæ, quando subacta sunt in Ægypto ubera tua, et confractæ sunt mammæ pubertatis tuæ.

And thou hast renewed the wickedness of thy youth, when thy breasts were pressed in Egypt, and the paps of thy virginity broken.

Et visita scelere de adolescentia tuo, quando subige es in Aegypto uberes tuo, et confrana es mammas de pubertate tuo.

22

Propterea, Ooliba, hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego suscitabo omnes amatores tuos contra te, de quibus satiata est anima tua, et congregabo eos adversum te in circuitu:

Therefore, Ooliba, thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will raise up against thee all thy lovers with whom thy soul hath been glutted: and I will gather them together against thee round about.

Propter hoc, Ooliba, Domino Deo dic hoc: ecce me suscita omni amatores tuo contra te, de que satia es anima tuo, et congrega illos contra te in circuitu:

23

filios Babylonis, et universos Chaldæos, nobiles, tyrannosque, et principes, omnes filios Assyriorum, juvenes forma egregia, duces et magistratus universos, principes principum, et nominatos ascensores equorum:

The children of Babylon, and all the Chaldeans, the nobles, and the kings, and princes, all the sons of the Assyrians, beautiful young men, all the captains, and rulers, the princes of princes, and the renowned horsemen.

Filios de Babylone, et universa Chaldaeis, nobile, et tyrannos, et principes, omni filios de Assyriis, iuvene forma egregio, duces et magistratus universa, principes de principes, et nomina ascensores de equos:

24

et venient super te instructi curru et rota, multitudo populorum: lorica, et clypeo, et galea armabuntur contra te undique: et dabo coram eis judicium, et judicabunt te judiciis suis.

And they shall come upon thee well appointed with chariot and wheel, a multitude of people: they shall be armed against thee on every side with breastplate, and buckler, and helmet: and I will set judgment before them, and they shall judge thee by their judgments.

Et multitudine super te instrue curru et rota, de populos veni: lorica, et clypeo, et galea arma contra te undique: et da coram illos iudicio, et iudica te iudicios suo.

25

Et ponam zelum meum in te, quem exercent tecum in furore: nasum tuum et aures tuas præcident, et quæ remanserint, gladio concident. Ipsi filios tuos et filias tuas capient, et novissimum tuum devorabitur igni:

And I will set my jealousy against thee, which they shall execute upon thee with fury: they shall cut off thy nose and thy ears: and what remains shall fall by the sword: they shall take thy sons, and thy daughters, and thy residue shall be devoured by fire.

Et pone zelo meo in te, quem exerce tecum in furore: aures tuo et praecide naso tuo, et que remane, gladio concide. Ipso filios tuo et filias tuo cape, et novissimo tuo devora igni:

26

et denudabunt te vestimentis tuis, et tollent vasa gloriæ tuæ.

And they shall strip thee of thy garments, and take away the instruments of thy glory.

Et denuda te vestimentos tuo, et tolle vases de gloria tuo.

27

Et requiescere faciam scelus tuum de te, et fornicationem tuam de terra Ægypti: nec levabis oculos tuos ad eos, et Ægypti non recordaberis amplius.

And I will put an end to thy wickedness in thee, and thy fornication brought out of the land of Egypt: neither shalt thou lift up thy eyes to them, nor remember Egypt any more.

Et requiesce fac scelere tuo de te, et fornicatione tuo de terra de Aegypto: nec leva oculos tuo ad illos, et de Aegypto non recordor ample.

28

Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego tradam te in manus eorum quos odisti, in manus de quibus satiata est anima tua.

For thus saith the Lord God: Behold, I will deliver thee into the hands of them whom thou hatest, into their hands with whom thy soul hath been glutted.

Quia Domino Deo dic hoc: ecce me trade te in manus de illos que ode, in manus de que satia es anima tuo.

29

Et agent tecum in odio, et tollent omnes labores tuos, et dimittent te nudam et ignominia plenam: et revelabitur ignominia fornicationum tuarum, scelus tuum, et fornicationes tuæ.

And they shall deal with thee in hatred, and they shall take away all thy labours, and shall let thee go naked, and full of disgrace, and the disgrace of thy fornication shall be discovered, thy wickedness, and thy fornications.

Et age tecum in odio, et tolle omni labores tuo, et dimitte te nuda et ignominia plena: et ignominia de fornicationes tuo revela, scelere tuo, et fornicationes tuo.

30

Fecerunt hæc tibi, quia fornicata es post gentes inter quas polluta es in idolis earum.

They have done these things to thee, because thou hast played the harlot with the nations among which thou wast defiled with their idols.

Fac hoc ad te, quia fornicor es post gentes inter que pollue es in idolos de illas.

31

In via sororis tuæ ambulasti, et dabo calicem ejus in manu tua.

Thou hast walked in the way of thy sister and I will give her cup into thy hand.

In via de sorore tuo ambula, et da calice de illo in manu tuo.

32

Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Calicem sororis tuæ bibes profundum et latum: eris in derisum et in subsannationem quæ est capacissima.

Thus saith the Lord God: Thou shalt drink thy sister's cup, deep and wide: thou shalt be had in derision and scorn, which containeth very much.

Domino Deo dic hoc: calice de sorore tuo bibe profundo et fer: es in derisu et in subsannatione que es capace.

33

Ebrietate et dolore repleberis: calice mœroris et tristitiæ, calice sororis tuæ Samariæ.

Thou shalt be filled with drunkenness, and sorrow: with the cup of grief and sadness, with the cup of thy sister Samaria.

Ebrietate et dolore reple: calice de moerore et de tristitia, calice de sorore tuo de Samaria.

34

Et bibes illum, et epotabis usque ad fæces: et fragmenta ejus devorabis, et ubera tua lacerabis, quia ego locutus sum, ait Dominus Deus.

And thou shalt drink it, and shalt drink it up even to the dregs, and thou shalt devour the fragments thereof, thou shalt rend thy breasts: because I have spoken it, saith the Lord God.

Et bibe illo, et epota usque ad faeces: et fragmentos de illo devora, et uberes tuo lacera, quia me locuto es, Domino Deo dic.

35

Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Quia oblita es mei, et projecisti me post corpus tuum, tu quoque porta scelus tuum et fornicationes tuas.

Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because thou hast forgotten me, and hast cast me off behind thy back, bear thou also thy wickedness, and thy fornications.

Propter hoc Domino Deo dic hoc: quia obliva es meo, et proicie me post corpore tuo, te etiam porta scelere tuo et fornicationes tuo.

36

Et ait Dominus ad me, dicens: Fili hominis, numquid judicas Oollam et Oolibam, et annuntias eis scelera earum?

And the Lord spoke to me, saying: Son of man, dost thou judge Oolla, and Ooliba, and dost thou declare to them their wicked deeds?

Et Domino dic ad me, dicente: filio de homine, numquid iudica Oolla et Ooliba, et annuntias ad illos sceleres de illas?

37

Quia adulteratæ sunt, et sanguis in manibus earum, et cum idolis suis fornicatæ sunt: insuper et filios suos quos genuerunt mihi, obtulerunt eis ad devorandum.

Because they have committed adultery, and blood is in their hands, and they have committed fornication with their idols: moreover also their children, whom they bore to me, they have offered to them to be devoured.

Quia adultera es, et sanguine in manus de illas, et cum idolos suo fornicor es: insuper et filios suo que gene ad me, offer ad illos ad devora.

38

Sed et hoc fecerunt mihi: polluerunt sanctuarium meum in die illa, et sabbata mea profanaverunt.

Yea, and they have done this to me. They polluted my sanctuary on the same day, and profaned my sabbaths.

Sed et hoc fac ad me: pollue sanctuario meo in die illa, et sabbatos meo profana.

39

Cumque immolarent filios suos idolis suis, et ingrederentur sanctuarium meum in die illa ut polluerent illud, etiam hæc fecerunt in medio domus meæ.

And when they sacrificed their children to their idols, and went into my sanctuary the same day to profane it: they did these things even in the midst of my house.

Cumque immola filios suo ad idolos suo, et sanctuario meo ingredior in die illa ut pollue illo, etiam hoc fac in medio de domo meo.

40

Miserunt ad viros venientes de longe, ad quos nuntium miserant: itaque ecce venerunt quibus te lavisti, et circumlinisti stibio oculos tuos, et ornata es mundo muliebri.

They sent for men coming from afar, to whom they had sent a messenger: and behold they came: for whom thou didst wash thyself, and didst paint thy eyes, and wast adorned with women's ornaments.

Mitte ad viros veni de longe, ad que nuntio mitte: itaque ecce veni ad que te lava, et circumla stibio oculos tuo, et orna es mundo muliebri.

41

Sedisti in lecto pulcherrimo, et mensa ornata est ante te: thymiama meum et unguentum meum posuisti super eam.

Thou sattest on a very fine bed, and a table was decked before thee: whereupon thou didst set my incense, and my ointment.

Sede in lecto pulcherrimo, et mensa orna es ante te: thymiamate meo et unguento meo pone super illa.

42

Et vox multitudinis exsultantis erat in ea: et in viris, qui de multitudine hominum adducebantur, et veniebant de deserto, posuerunt armillas in manibus eorum, et coronas speciosas in capitibus eorum.

And there was in her the voice of a multitude rejoicing: and to some that were brought of the multitude of men, and that came from the desert, they put bracelets on their hands, and beautiful crowns on their heads.

Et voce de multitudine exsulta es in illa: et in viros, qui de multitudine de homines adduce, et veni de deserto, pone armillas in manus de illos, et coronas specioso in capites de illos.

43

Et dixi ei, quæ attrita est in adulteriis: Nunc fornicabitur in fornicatione sua etiam hæc.

And I said to her that was worn out in her adulteries: Now will this woman still continue in her fornication.

Et dic ad illo, que attrita es in adulterios: nunc fornicor in fornicatione suo etiam hoc.

44

Et ingressi sunt ad eam quasi ad mulierem meretricem: sic ingrediebantur ad Oollam et Oolibam, mulieres nefarias.

And they went in to her, as to a harlot: so went they in unto Oolla, and Ooliba, wicked women.

Et ingredior es ad illa quasi ad muliere meretrice: sic ingredior ad Oolla et Ooliba, mulieres nefaria.

45

Viri ergo justi sunt: hi judicabunt eas judicio adulterarum, et judicio effundentium sanguinem: quia adulteræ sunt, et sanguis in manibus earum.

They therefore are just men: these shall judge them as adulteresses are judged, and as shedders of blood are judged: because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.

Viros ergo iusto es: hoc iudica illas iudicio adultera, et iudicio effunde sanguine: quia adultera es, et sanguine in manus de illas.

46

Hæc enim dicit Dominus Deus: Adduc ad eas multitudinem, et trade eas in tumultum et in rapinam.

For thus saith the Lord God: Bring a multitude upon them, and deliver them over to tumult and rapine:

Domino nam Deo dic hoc: adduce ad illas multitudine, et trade illas in tumultu et in rapina.

47

Et lapidentur lapidibus populorum, et confodiantur gladiis eorum: filios et filias earum interficient, et domos earum igne succendent.

And let the people stone them with stone, and let them be stabbed with their swords: they shall kill their sons and daughters, and their houses they shall burn with fire.

Et lapida lapides de populos, et confode gladios de illos: filios et filias de illas interfice, et domos de illas igni succende.

48

Et auferam scelus de terra, et discent omnes mulieres ne faciant secundum scelus earum.

And I will take away wickedness out of the land: and all women shall learn, not to do according to the wickedness of them.

Et aufer scelere de terra, et disce omni mulieres ne fac secundo scelere de illas.

49

Et dabunt scelus vestrum super vos, et peccata idolorum vestrorum portabitis: et scietis quia ego Dominus Deus.

And they shall render your wickedness upon you, and you shall bear the sins of your idols: and you shall know that I am the Lord God.

Et da scelere vestro super vos, et peccatos de idolos vestro porta: et sci quia me Domino Deo.
