Ezekiel 7
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
2 And you, son of man, say, This is what the Lord has said to the land of Israel: An end has come, the end has come on the four quarters of the land.
Et tu, fili hominis, hæc dicit Dominus Deus terræ Israël: Finis venit: venit finis super quatuor plagas terræ.
3 Now the end has come on you, and I will send my wrath on you, judging you for your ways, I will send punishment on you for all your disgusting acts.
Nunc finis super te, et immittam furorem meum in te: et judicabo te juxta vias tuas, et ponam contra te omnes abominationes tuas.
4 My eye will not have mercy on you, and I will have no pity: but I will send the punishment of your ways on you, and your disgusting works will be among you: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Et non parcet oculus meus super te, et non miserebor: sed vias tuas ponam super te, et abominationes tuæ in medio tui erunt, et scietis quia ego Dominus.
5 This is what the Lord has said: An evil, even one evil; see, it is coming.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Afflictio una, afflictio ecce venit.
6 An end has come, the end has come; see, it is coming on you.
Finis venit, venit finis: evigilavit adversum te, ecce venit.
7 The crowning time has come on you, O people of the land: the time has come, the day is near; the day will not be slow in coming, it will not keep back.
Venit contritio super te, qui habitas in terra: venit tempus, prope est dies occisionis, et non gloriæ montium.
8 Now, in a little time, I will let loose my passion on you, and give full effect to my wrath against you, judging you for your ways, and sending punishment on you for all your disgusting works.
Nunc de propinquo effundam iram meam super te, et complebo furorem meum in te: et judicabo te juxta vias tuas, et imponam tibi omnia scelera tua,
9 My eye will not have mercy, and I will have no pity: I will send on you the punishment of your ways, and your disgusting works will be among you; and you will see that I am the Lord who gives punishment.
et non parcet oculus meus, nec miserebor: sed vias tuas imponam tibi, et abominationes tuæ in medio tui erunt, et scietis quia ego sum Dominus percutiens.
10 See, the day; see, it is coming: the crowning time has gone out; the twisted way is flowering, pride has put out buds.
Ecce dies, ecce venit: egressa est contritio, floruit virga, germinavit superbia,
11 Violent behaviour has been lifted up into a rod of evil; it will not be slow in coming, it will not keep back.
iniquitas surrexit in virga impietatis: non ex eis, et non ex populo, neque ex sonitu eorum: et non erit requies in eis.
12 The time has come, the day is near: let not him who gives a price for goods be glad, or him who gets the price have sorrow:
Venit tempus, appropinquavit dies: qui emit, non lætetur, et qui vendit, non lugeat: quia ira super omnem populum ejus.
13 For the trader will not go back to the things for which he had his price, even while he is still living:
Quia qui vendit, ad id quod vendidit non revertetur: et adhuc in viventibus vita eorum: visio enim ad omnem multitudinem ejus non regredietur, et vir in iniquitate vitæ suæ non confortabitur.
14 And he who has given a price for goods will not get them, for my wrath is on all of them.
Canite tuba, præparentur omnes: et non est qui vadat ad prælium: ira enim mea super universum populum ejus.
15 Outside is the sword, and inside disease and need of food: he who is in the open country will be put to the sword; he who is in the town will come to his end through need of food and disease.
Gladium foris, et pestis et fames intrinsecus: qui in agro est, gladio morietur, et qui in civitate, pestilentia et fame devorabuntur.
16 And those of them who get away safely will go and be in the secret places like the doves of the valleys, all of them will come to death, every one in his sin.
Et salvabuntur qui fugerint ex eis: et erunt in montibus quasi columbæ convallium omnes trepidi, unusquisque in iniquitate sua.
17 All hands will be feeble and all knees without strength, like water.
Omnes manus dissolventur, et omnia genua fluent aquis.
18 And they will put haircloth round them, and deep fear will be covering them; and shame will be on all faces, and the hair gone from all their heads.
Et accingent se ciliciis, et operiet eos formido: et in omni facie confusio, et in universis capitibus eorum calvitium.
19 They will put out their silver into the streets, and their gold will be as an unclean thing; their silver and their gold will not be able to keep them safe in the day of the wrath of the Lord; they will not get their desire or have food for their need: because it has been the cause of their falling into sin.
Argentum eorum foras projicietur, 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.
20 As for their beautiful ornament, they had put it on high, and had made the images of their disgusting and hated things in it: for this cause I have made it an unclean thing to them.
Et ornamentum monilium suorum in superbiam posuerunt, et imagines abominationum suarum et simulacrorum fecerunt ex eo: propter hoc dedi eis illud in immunditiam.
21 And I will give it into the hands of men from strange lands who will take it by force, and to the evil-doers of the earth to have for themselves; and they will make it unholy.
Et dabo illud in manus alienorum ad diripiendum, et impiis terræ in prædam, et contaminabunt illud.
22 And my face will be turned away from them, and they will make my secret place unholy: violent men will go into it and make it unholy.
Et avertam faciem meam ab eis, et violabunt arcanum meum: et introibunt in illud emissarii, et contaminabunt illud.
23 Make the chain: for the land is full of crimes of blood, and the town is full of violent acts.
Fac conclusionem, quoniam terra plena est judicio sanguinum, et civitas plena iniquitate.
24 For this reason I will send the worst of the nations and they will take their houses for themselves: I will make the pride of their strength come to an end; and their holy places will be made unclean.
Et adducam pessimos de gentibus, et possidebunt domos eorum: et quiescere faciam superbiam potentium, et possidebunt sanctuaria eorum.
25 Shaking fear is coming; and they will be looking for peace, and there will be no peace.
Angustia superveniente, requirent pacem, et non erit.
26 Destruction will come on destruction, and one story after another; and the vision of the prophet will be shamed, and knowledge of the law will come to an end among the priests, and wisdom among the old.
Conturbatio super conturbationem veniet, et auditus super auditum: et quærent visionem de propheta, et lex peribit a sacerdote, et consilium a senioribus.
27 The king will give himself up to sorrow, and the ruler will be clothed with wonder, and the hands of the people of the land will be troubled: I will give them punishment for their ways, judging them as it is right for them to be judged; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Rex lugebit, et princeps induetur mœrore, et manus populi terræ conturbabuntur: secundum viam eorum faciam eis, et secundum judicia eorum judicabo eos, et scient quia ego Dominus.
