KING JAMES BIBLENOVA VULGATA
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens:
2 Son of man, set thy face toward Jerusalem, and drop thy word toward the holy places, and prophesy against the land of Israel,2 “ Fili hominis, pone faciemtuam contra meridiem et stilla ad austrum et propheta ad saltum agri Nageb.
3 And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I am against thee, and will draw forth my sword out of his sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked.3 Etdices saltui Nageb: Audi verbum Domini. Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce egosuccendam in te ignem, et comburet in te omne lignum viride et omne lignumaridum; non exstinguetur flamma succensionis, et comburetur in ea omnis faciesab austro usque ad aquilonem.
4 Seeing then that I will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of his sheath against all flesh from the south to the north:4 Et videbit universa caro quia ego Domínussuccendi eam, nec exstinguetur ”.
5 That all flesh may know that I the LORD have drawn forth my sword out of his sheath: it shall not return any more.5 Et dixi: “ Heu, Domine Deus! Ipsi dicuntde me: “Numquid non per parabolas loquitur iste?” ”.
6 Sigh therefore, thou son of man, with the breaking of thy loins; and with bitterness sigh before their eyes.6 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens:
7 And it shall be, when they say unto thee, Wherefore sighest thou? that thou shalt answer, For the tidings; because it cometh: and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: behold, it cometh, and shall be brought to pass, saith the Lord GOD.7 “ Fili hominis, pone faciem tuamad Ierusalem et stilla ad sanctuaria et propheta contra humum Israel.
8 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,8 Et dicesterrae Israel: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ad te, et eiciam gladium meumde vagina sua et occidam in te iustum et impium.
9 Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith the LORD; Say, A sword, a sword is sharpened, and also furbished:9 Pro eo autem quod occidi inte iustum et impium, idcirco egredietur gladius meus de vagina sua ad omnemcarnem, ab austro ad aquilonem,
10 It is sharpened to make a sore slaughter; it is furbished that it may glitter: should we then make mirth? it contemneth the rod of my son, as every tree.10 ut sciat omnis caro quia ego Dominus eduxigladium meum de vagina sua irrevocabilem.
11 And he hath give it to be furbished, that it may be handled: this sword is sharpened, and it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the slayer.11 Et tu, fili hominis, ingemisce in contritione lumborum et in amaritudinibusingemisce coram eis.
12 Cry and howl, son of man: for it shall be upon my people, it shall be upon all the princes of Israel: terrors by reason of the sword shall be upon my people: smite therefore upon thy thigh.12 Cumque dixerint ad te: “Quare tu gemis?”, dices: Proauditu quia venit et tabescet omne cor, et dissolventur universae manus, etinfirmabitur omnis spiritus, et per cuncta genua fluent aquae; ecce venit etfiet ”, ait Dominus Deus.
13 Because it is a trial, and what if the sword contemn even the rod? it shall be no more, saith the Lord GOD.13 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens:
14 Thou therefore, son of man, prophesy, and smite thine hands together, and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the slain: it is the sword of the great men that are slain, which entereth into their privy chambers.14 “ Fili hominis, propheta etdices: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Loquere:
Gladius, gladius exacutus est
et etiam limatus;
15 I have set the point of the sword against all their gates, that their heart may faint, and their ruins be multiplied: ah! it is made bright, it is wrapped up for the slaughter.15 ut caedat victimas exacutus est,
ut splendeat limatus est.
16 Go thee one way or other, either on the right hand, or on the left, whithersoever thy face is set.16 Et datus est ad levigandum,
ut teneatur manu.
Iste exacutus est gladius et iste limatus,
ut sit in manu interficientis.
17 I will also smite mine hands together, and I will cause my fury to rest: I the LORD have said it.17 Clama et ulula, fili hominis,
quia hic directus est in populum meum,
hic in cunctos duces Israel,
qui gladio traditi sunt cum populo meo.
18 The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying,18 Idcirco plaude super femur,
quia probatio est,
dicit Dominus Deus.
19 Also, thou son of man, appoint thee two ways, that the sword of the king of Babylon may come: both twain shall come forth out of one land: and choose thou a place, choose it at the head of the way to the city.19 Tu ergo, fili hominis,
propheta et percute manu ad manum.
Et duplicetur gladius,
ac triplicetur gladius interfectorum: hic est gladius occisionis magnae,
qui eos circumdat,
20 Appoint a way, that the sword may come to Rabbath of the Ammonites, and to Judah in Jerusalem the defenced.20 ut cor tabescat,
et multiplicentur corruentes.
In omnibus portis eorum
dedi occisionem gladii:
eheu, facti acuti et limati ad fulgendum,
politi ad caedem!
21 For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination: he made his arrows bright, he consulted with images, he looked in the liver.21 “Exacuere, vade ad dexteram sive ad sinistram,
quocumque acies tuae sunt destinatae”.
22 At his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to appoint captains, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to appoint battering rams against the gates, to cast a mount, and to build a fort.22 Quin et ego plaudam manu ad manum
et saturabo indignationem meam,
ego Dominus locutus sum ”.
23 And it shall be unto them as a false divination in their sight, to them that have sworn oaths: but he will call to remembrance the iniquity, that they may be taken.23 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me dicens:
24 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are discovered, so that in all your doings your sins do appear; because, I say, that ye are come to remembrance, ye shall be taken with the hand.24 “Et tu, fili hominis, pone tibiduas vias, ut veniat gladius regis Babylonis: de terra una egrediantur ambae; etindicem statue, in capite viae civitatis statue.
25 And thou, profane wicked prince of Israel, whose day is come, when iniquity shall have an end,25 Viam pones, quo veniatgladius, ad Rabba filiorum Ammon et ad Iudam in Ierusalem munitissimam.
26 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Remove the diadem, and take off the crown: this shall not be the same: exalt him that is low, and abase him that is high.26 Statenim rex Babylonis in bivio in capite duarum viarum, divinationem quaerens,commiscens sagittas; interrogat teraphim, iecur consulit.
27 I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.27 Ad dexteram eiusfacta est divinatio super Ierusalem, ut ponat arietes, ut aperiat os ad caedem,ut elevet vocem in ululatu, ut ponat arietes contra portas, ut comportetaggerem, ut aedificet munitiones.
28 And thou, son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning the Ammonites, and concerning their reproach; even say thou, The sword, the sword is drawn: for the slaughter it is furbished, to consume because of the glittering:28 Eritque quasi consulens frustra oraculum inoculis eorum, et iuramenta sanctissima sunt eis; ipse autem in memoriamrevocabit iniquitatem ad capiendum.
29 Whiles they see vanity unto thee, whiles they divine a lie unto thee, to bring thee upon the necks of them that are slain, of the wicked, whose day is come, when their iniquity shall have an end.29 Idcirco haec dicit Dominus Deus: Pro eoquod in memoriam revocastis iniquitatem vestram, et revelatae suntpraevaricationes vestrae, et apparuerunt peccata vestra in omnibus operibusvestris; pro eo, inquam, quod in memoriam revocati estis, manu capiemini.
30 Shall I cause it to return into his sheath? I will judge thee in the place where thou wast created, in the land of thy nativity.30 Tuautem, profane, impie dux Israel, cuius venit dies in tempore iniquitatisfinitae —
31 And I will pour out mine indignation upon thee, I will blow against thee in the fire of my wrath, and deliver thee into the hand of brutish men, and skilful to destroy.31 haec dicit Dominus Deus — auferatur cidaris, tollatur corona;hoc non erit amplius. Humile sublevetur, et sublime humilietur.
32 Thou shalt be for fuel to the fire; thy blood shall be in the midst of the land; thou shalt be no more remembered: for I the LORD have spoken it.32 Ruinam,ruinam, ruinam ponam illud; et hoc non fiet, donec veniat, cuius est iudicium,et tradam ei.
33 Et tu, fili hominis, propheta et dic: Haec dicit Dominus Deus ad filios Ammonet ad opprobrium eorum; et dices: Gladius, gladius est evaginatus ad occidendum,limatus ad consumendum, ut fulgeat,
34 cum tibi videntur vana, et divinanturmendacia, ut ponatur gladius ad colla profanorum impiorum, quorum venit dies intempore iniquitatis finitae.
35 Revertatur ad vaginam suam. In loco, in quocreatus es, in terra nativitatis tuae iudicabo te.
36 Et effundam super teindignationem meam, in igne furoris mei sufflabo in te; daboque te in manushominum insipientium et fabricantium interitum.
37 Igni eris cibus, sanguis tuuserit in medio terrae; oblivioni traderis, quia ego Dominus locutus sum ”.
