Ezekiel 19

NEW JERUSALEM	NOVA VULGATA
1 'Now, raise a lament for the princes of Israel.	1 Et tu, assume planctum super principes Israel
2 Say: What was your mother? A lioness among lions; lying among the cubs she nursed her whelps.	2 et dices: Qualis erat mater tua leaena inter leones! Cubavit in medio leunculorum, enutrivit catulos suos.
3 She reared one of her whelps: he grew into a young lion; he learnt to tear his prey; he became a man-eater.	3 Et educavit unum de leunculis suis; leo factus est et didicit capere praedam, homines devoravit.
4 The nations came to hear of him; he was caught in their pit; they dragged him away with hooks toEgypt.	4 Et convocaverunt contra eum gentes, in fovea earum captus est; et adduxerunt eum in circulis in terram Aegypti.
5 Her expectation thwarted, and seeing her hope dashed, she took another of her whelps and made ayoung lion of him.	5 Quae cum vidisset quoniam exspectaverat, et perierat spes eius, tulit alium de leunculis suis, leonem constituit eum.
6 He prowled among the lions, he grew into a young lion, he learnt to tear his prey; he became a man-eater.	6 Qui incedebat inter leones, factus est leo et didicit praedam capere, homines devoravit;
7 He tore down their palaces, he destroyed their cities; the land and al its inhabitants were appal ed bythe sound of his roars.	7 et fregit arces eorum et civitates eorum vastavit. Et obstupuit terra et plenitudo eius a voce rugitus illius.
8 The nations marched out against him from the surrounding provinces; they spread their net over him;he was caught in their pit.	8 Et convenerunt adversum eum gentes undique de provinciis et expanderunt super eum rete suum, in fovea earum captus est.
9 They shackled him with hooks, they took him to the king of Babylon and threw him into a fortress, sothat his voice could never again be heard on the mountains of Israel.	9 Et miserunt eum in caveam in circulis et adduxerunt eum ad regem Babylonis; qui misit eum in carcerem, ne audiretur vox eius ultra super montes Israel.
10 Your mother was like a vine planted beside the water, fruitful and leafy, because the water flowed soful .	10 Mater tua vineae assimilabatur super aquam plantata. Fructus eius et frondes eius creverunt ex aquis multis;
11 She had stout stems which became kingly sceptres; she grew higher and higher, up into the clouds;she was admired for her height and the number of her branches.	11 et factae sunt ei virgae solidae in sceptra dominantium, et exaltata est statura eius usque in nubes, et apparuit in altitudine sua, in multitudine palmitum suorum.
12 But she was furiously uprooted and thrown on the ground; the east wind dried up her fruit, she wasbroken to pieces; her stout stem dried up, the fire devoured it.	12 Et evulsa est in ira in terramque proiecta, et ventus urens siccavit fructum eius; abrepta et arefacta est virga roboris eius, ignis comedit eam.
13 Now she has been transplanted to the desert, to a dry and thirsty land.	13 Et nunc transplantata est in desertum, in terra invia et sitienti.
14 Fire burst out of her stem devouring her branches and fruit. No more stout stem for her, no morekingly sceptre.' This is a lament; it was used as such.	14 Et egressus est ignis de virga ramorum eius, qui fructum eius comedit; et non fuit in ea virga fortis, sceptrum regni ”. Planctus est, et erit in planctum.
