< Ezekiel 25 >

1 [Some time later, ] Yahweh gave me another message. [He said, ]
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
2 “You human, turn toward where the Ammon people- [lives], and prophesy [what will happen to] them.
Fili hominis pone faciem tuam contra filios Ammon, et prophetabis de eis.
3 Say about them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: “You shouted joyfully when my [in Jerusalem] was destroyed, and when the country/land of Israel was ruined, and when the people of Judah were (exiled/forced to go) [to Babylonia].
Et dices filiis Ammon: Audite verbum Domini Dei: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod dixisti: Euge, euge super sanctuarium meum, quia pollutum est: et super terram Israel, quoniam desolata est: et super domum Iuda, quoniam ducti sunt in captivitatem:
4 Therefore, I am going to allow you to be conquered by people [who will come] from the east. They will set up their tents in your country and live there. And they will eat the fruit from [fruit trees] and drink the [from your cattle].
Idcirco ego tradam te filiis orientalibus in hereditatem, et collocabunt caulas suas in te, et ponent in te tentoria sua: ipsi comedent fruges tuas: et ipsi bibent lac tuum.
5 I will [your capital city] Rabbah to become a pasture for camels, and the rest of Ammon to [only] a resting place for sheep. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Daboque Rabbath in habitaculum camelorum, et filios Ammon in cubile pecorum: et scietis quia ego Dominus.
6 This is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: “You clapped your [joyfully] and stomped your feet, and laughed because you despised [the people in] the land of Israel.
Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod plausisti manu, et percussisti pede, et gavisa es ex toto affectu super terram Israel:
7 Therefore, I will use my power [MTY] against you, and I will enable [other] nations [conquer you and] take away your valuable possessions. I will destroy you completely [DOU], with the result that you no longer will be a nation. When that happens, people will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].’”
idcirco ecce ego extendam manum meam super te, et tradam te in direptionem Gentium, et interficiam te de populis, et perdam de terris, et conteram: et scies quia ego Dominus.
8 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[The people of] [south of Ammon] and [the people of] [south of Moab despised Israel and] said, ‘The people [MTY] of Israel have [as unimportant] as all the other nations!’
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod dixerunt Moab, et Seir: Ecce sicut omnes Gentes, domus Iuda:
9 Therefore, I will destroy the cities that protect the borders of Moab, starting at Beth-Jeshimoth, Baal-Meon, and Kiriathaim, the finest cities in Moab.
idcirco ecce ego aperiam humerum Moab de civitatibus, de civitatibus, inquam, eius, et de finibus eius inclytas terræ Bethiesimoth, et Beelmeon, et Cariathaim,
10 I will enable people from the east to conquer Moab and also to conquer Ammon. As a result, [I will cause that] Ammon will no longer be remembered by other nations.
filiis Orientis cum filiis Ammon, et dabo eam in hereditatem: ut non sit ultra memoria filiorum Ammon in Gentibus.
11 I will also punish [the people of] Moab. When that happens, they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Et in Moab faciam iudicia: et scient quia ego Dominus.
12 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “[You people of] Edom are guilty of getting revenge on the people [MTY] of Judah.
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod fecit Idumæa ultionem ut se vindicaret de filiis Iuda, peccavitque delinquens, et vindictam expetivit de eis;
13 Therefore this is what [I], Yahweh the Lord, say: 'I will use my power against [the people of] Edom and will get rid of their men and their animals. I will ruin the land from Teman [region in central Edom] to Dedan [region in the south of Edom], and many of their men will be killed [their enemies] swords.'
idcirco hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Extendam manum meam super Idumæam, et auferam de ea hominem, et iumentum, et faciam eam desertam ab Austro: et qui sunt in Dedan, gladio cadent.
14 The Israeli people will use their power [MTY] to get revenge on [the people of] Edom. They will show [the people of] Edom that I have been angry with them, and I will punish [MTY] them. The people of Edom will experience my getting revenge on them. Then they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].”
Et dabo ultionem meam super Idumæam per manum populi mei Israel: et facient in Edom iuxta iram meam, et furorem meum: et scient vindictam meam, dicit Dominus Deus.
15 This is [also] what Yahweh the Lord says: “The Philistia people-group wanted very much to get revenge [on the people of Judah]. They very maliciously wanted to destroy [Judah].
Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eo quod fecerunt Palæstini vindictam, et ulti se sunt toto animo, interficientes, et implentes inimicitias veteres:
16 Therefore this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I am about to use my power [MTY] against the Philistia people. I will get rid of the Kereth people-group and all [those who live along] the coast of the [Mediterranean] Sea.
propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego extendam manum meam super Palæstinos, et interficiam interfectores, et perdam reliquias maritimæ regionis:
17 By the way I punish them, I will get great revenge on them and show that I am angry with them. And when I get revenge on them, they will know that I, Yahweh the Lord, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].'”
faciamque in eis ultiones magnas arguens in furore: et scient quia ego Dominus, cum dedero vindictam meam super eos.
