Ezekiel 28

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	NOVA VULGATA
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:	1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad medicens:
2 “Son of man, say to the leader of Tyre: Thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted, and you have said, ‘I am God, and I sit in the chair of God, in the heart of the sea,’ though you are a man, and not God, and because you have presented your heart as if it were the heart of God:	2 “ Fili hominis, dic principi Tyri: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Eo quod elevatum est cor tuum, et dixisti: “Deus ego sum et in cathedra deorum sedeo in corde maris!”, cum sis homo et non Deus, et dedisti cor tuum quasi cor Dei.
3 Behold, you are wiser than Daniel; no secret is concealed from you.	3 Ecce sapientior es tu Danel, omne secretum non est absconditum a te,
4 By your wisdom and prudence, you have made yourself strong, and you have acquired gold and silver for your storehouses.	4 in sapientia et prudentia tua fecisti tibi opes et acquisisti aurum et argentum in thesauris tuis;
5 By the multitude of your wisdom, and by your business dealings, you have multiplied strength for yourself. And your heart has been exalted by your strength.	5 in multitudine sapientiae tuae et in negotiatione tua multiplicasti tibi opes, et elevatum est cor tuum in opibus tuis.
6 Therefore, thus says the Lord God: Because your heart has been exalted as if it were the heart of God,	6 Propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus: Eo quod fecisti cor tuum quasi cor Dei,
7 for this reason, behold, I will lead over you foreigners, the most robust among the Gentiles. And they will bare their swords over the beauty of your wisdom, and they will defile your beauty.	7 idcirco ecce ego adducam super te alienos violentissimos gentium; et nudabunt gladios suos super pulchritudinem sapientiae tuae et polluent splendorem tuum.
8 They will destroy you and pull you down. And you will die the death of those slain in the heart of the sea.	8 In fossam detrahent te, et morieris interitu occisorum in corde maris.
9 So then, will you speak, in the presence of those who are destroying you, before the hand of those who are killing you, saying, ‘I am God,’ though you are a man, and not God?	9 Numquid dicens loqueris: “Deus ego sum!” coram interficientibus te, cum sis homo et non Deus in manu occidentium te?
10 You will die the death of the uncircumcised at the hand of foreigners. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.”	10 Morte incircumcisorum morieris in manu alienorum, quia ego locutus sum ”, ait Dominus Deus.
11 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying: “Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre,	11 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens: “ Fili hominis, leva planctumsuper regem Tyri
12 and you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord God: You were the seal of similitudes, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.	12 et dices ei: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Tu signaculum perfectum, plenus sapientia et perfectus decore;
13 You were with the delights of the Paradise of God. Every precious stone was your covering: sardius, topaz, and jasper, chrysolite, and onyx, and beryl, sapphire, and garnet, and emerald. The work of your beauty was of gold, and your fissures were ready in the day when you were formed.	13 in deliciis paradisi Dei fuisti, omnis lapis pretiosus operimentum tuum: sardius, topazius et iaspis, chrysolithus et onyx et beryllus, sapphirus et carbunculus et smaragdus, aurum opus caelaturae in te; in die, qua conditus es, praeparata sunt.
14 You were a cherub, stretched out and protecting, and I stationed you on the holy mountain of God. You have walked in the midst of stones containing fire.	14 Cum cherub extento et protegente te posui te, in monte sancto Dei fuisti, in medio lapidum ignitorum ambulasti,
15 You were perfect in your ways, from the day of your formation, until iniquity was found in you.	15 perfectus in viis tuis a die conditionis tuae, donec inventa est iniquitas in te.
16 By the multitude of your business dealings, your interior was filled with iniquity, and you sinned. And I cast you away from the mountain of God, and I perished you, O protecting cherub, from the midst of the stones containing fire.	16 In multitudine negotiationis tuae repleta sunt interiora tua iniquitate, et peccasti. Et eieci te de monte Dei, et perdidit te cherub protegens de medio lapidum ignitorum.
17 And your heart was exalted by your beauty; you have destroyed your own wisdom by your beauty. I have cast you to the ground. I have presented you before the face of kings, so that they may examine you.	17 Elevatum est cor tuum in decore tuo; perdidisti sapientiam tuam propter splendorem tuum: in terram proieci te, ante faciem regum dedi te, ut cernerent te.
18 You have defiled your sanctuaries, by the multitude of your iniquities and by the iniquity of your business dealings. Therefore, I will produce a fire from your midst, which will consume you, and I will make you into ashes upon the earth, in the sight of all who are watching you.	18 In multitudine iniquitatum tuarum et iniquitate negotiationis tuae polluisti sanctuaria tua; producam ergo ignem de medio tui, qui comedat te, et dabo te in cinerem super terram in conspectu omnium videntium te.
19 All who gaze upon you among the Gentiles will be stupefied over you. You were made out of nothing, and you shall not be, forever.”	19 Omnes, qui viderint te, in gentibus obstupescent super te; in horrorem factus es et non eris in perpetuum ”.
20 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:	20 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens:
21 “Son of man, set your face against Sidon, and you shall prophesy about it.	21 “ Fili hominis, pone faciemtuam contra Sidonem et propheta de ea
22 And you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, Sidon, and I will be glorified in your midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have executed judgments in her, and when I will have been sanctified in her.	22 et dices: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ad te, Sidon, et glorificabor in medio tui, et scient quia ego Dominus, cum fecero in ea iudicia et sanctificatus fuero in ea.
23 And I will send a pestilence upon her, and there will be blood in her streets. And they will fall, slain by the sword, on every side in her midst. And they shall know that I am the Lord.	23 Et immittam ei pestilentiam et sanguinem in plateis eius, et corruent interfecti in medio eius gladio per circuitum, et scient quia ego Dominus.
24 And the house of Israel will no longer be a stumbling block of bitterness, nor a thorn bringing pain everywhere around them, to those who turn against them. And they shall know that I am the Lord God.”	24 Et non erit ultra domui Israel stimulus amaritudinis et spina doloreminferens undique per circuitum eorum, qui adversantur eis, et scient quia egoDominus Deus.
25 Thus says the Lord God: “When I will have gathered together the house of Israel, from the peoples among whom they have been dispersed, I shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the Gentiles. And they shall live in their own land, which I gave to my servant Jacob.	25 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Quando congregavero domum Israel de populis, inquibus dispersi sunt, sanctificabor in eis coram gentibus, et habitabunt interra sua, quam dedi servo meo Iacob;
26 And they shall live within it securely. And they shall build houses and plant vineyards. And they shall live in confidence, when I will have executed judgments upon all those who turn against them on every side. And they shall know that I am the Lord their God.”	26 et habitabunt in ea securi etaedificabunt domos plantabuntque vineas et habitabunt confidenter, cum feceroiudicia in omnibus, qui adversantur eis per circuitum, et scient quia egoDominus Deus eorum ”.
