NOVA VULGATACATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Et factum est in undecimo anno, prima mensis, factus est sermo Domini adme dicens:1 And it happened that, in the eleventh year, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 “Fili hominis, pro eo quod dixit Tyrus de Ierusalem:
“Euge, confracta est
porta populorum!
Conversa est ad me;
quae erat plena, deserta est”,
2 “Son of man, because Tyre has said about Jerusalem: ‘It is Well! The gates of the peoples have been broken! She has been turned toward me. I will be filled. She will be deserted!’
3 propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus:
Ecce ego super te, Tyre,
et ascendere faciam ad te gentes multas,
sicut ascendit mare fluctuans;
3 because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, O Tyre, and I will cause many nations to rise up against you, just as the waves of the sea rise up.
4 et dissipabunt muros Tyri
et destruent turres eius,
et radam pulverem eius de ea,
et dabo eam in limpidissimam petram.
4 And they will break apart the walls of Tyre, and they will destroy its towers. And I will scrape her dust from her, and I will make her into the barest rock.
5 Siccatio sagenarum
erit in medio maris,
quia ego locutus sum,
ait Dominus Deus;
et erit in direptionem gentibus.
5 She will be a drying place for nets from the midst of the sea. For I have spoken, says the Lord God. And she will be a spoil for the Gentiles.
6 Filiae quoque eius, quae sunt in agro,
gladio interficientur,
et scient quia ego Dominus.
6 Likewise, her daughters who are in the field will be slain by the sword. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
7 Quia haec dicit Dominus Deus:
Ecce ego adducam ad Tyrum
Nabuchodonosor, regem Babylonis,
ab aquilone, regem regum,
cum equis et curribus et equitibus
et coetu populoque magno.
7 For thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will lead into Tyre: Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, a king among kings, from the north, with horses, and chariots, and horsemen, and companies, and a great people.
8 Filias tuas, quae sunt in agro,
gladio interficiet,
et circumdabit te munitionibus
et comportabit aggerem in gyro
et levabit contra te clipeum
8 Your daughters who are in the field, he will kill with the sword. And he will surround you with fortifications, and he will put together a rampart on all sides. And he will lift up a shield against you.
9 et vineas et arietes temperabit in muros tuos
et turres tuas destruet in armatura sua.
9 And he will combine moveable shelters and battering rams before your walls, and he will destroy your towers with his armaments.
10 Inundatione equorum eius
operiet te pulvis eorum,
a sonitu equitum
et rotarum et curruum
movebuntur muri tui,
dum ingressus fuerit portas tuas
quasi per introitus urbis dissipatae.
10 He will cover you with the inundation of his horses and with their dust. Your walls will shake at the sound of horsemen and wheels and chariots, when they will have entered your gates, as if through the entrance of a city that has been broken open.
11 Ungulis equorum suorum
conculcabit omnes plateas tuas,
populum tuum gladio caedet,
et columnae tuae fortissimae
in terram corruent.
11 With the hoofs of his horses, he will trample all your streets. He will cut down your people with the sword, and your noble statues will fall to the ground.
12 Vastabunt opes tuas,
diripient negotiationes tuas
et destruent muros tuos
et domos tuas praeclaras subvertent
et lapides tuos et ligna tua et pulverem tuum
in medio aquarum ponent.
12 They will lay waste to your wealth. They will despoil your businesses. And they will tear down your walls and overturn your eminent houses. And they will put your stones and your timber and your dust into the midst of the waters.
13 Et quiescere faciam tumultum canticorum tuorum,
et sonitus cithararum tuarum non audietur amplius,
13 And I will cause the multitude of your songs to cease. And the sound of your stringed instruments will no longer be heard.
14 et dabo te in limpidissimam petram;
siccatio sagenarum eris,
nec aedificaberis ultra,
quia ego locutus sum,
dicit Dominus Deus.
14 And I will make you like the barest rock; you will be a drying place for nets. And you will no longer be built up. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.”
15 Haec dicit Dominus Deus Tyro: Numquid non a sonitu ruinae tuae et gemituinterfectorum tuorum, cum occisi fuerint in medio tui, commovebuntur insulae?15 Thus says the Lord God to Tyre: “Will not the islands shake at the sound of your ruin and at the groans of your slain, when they will have been cut down in your midst?
16 Et descendent de sedibus suis omnes principes maris et auferent pallia sua etvestimenta sua varia abicient; et induentur stupore, in terra sedebunt etattoniti et tremefacti stupebunt super te.16 And all the leaders of the sea will descend from their thrones. And they will cast aside their outer garments and their colorful clothing, and they will be clothed in stupor. They will sit on the ground, and they will wonder with astonishment at your sudden downfall.
17 Et assumentes super te lamentumdicent tibi:
“Quomodo peristi, quae habitas in mari,
urbs inclita,
quae fuisti fortis in mari
cum habitatoribus tuis,
quos formidabant universi!
17 And taking up a lamentation over you, they will say to you: ‘How could you have perished, you who live in the sea, the famous city that was strong in the sea, with your inhabitants, of whom the whole world was in dread?’
18 Nunc stupebunt naves
in die ruinae tuae,
et turbabuntur insulae in mari
ob exitum tuum”.
18 Now the ships will be stupefied, in the day of your terror. And the islands of the sea will be disturbed, because no one goes out from you.
19 Quia haec dicit Dominus Deus: Cum dedero te urbem desolatam sicut civitates,quae non habitantur, et adduxero super te abyssum, et operuerint te aquaemultae,19 For thus says the Lord God: When I will have made you a desolate city, like the cities that are uninhabited, and when I will have led the abyss over you, and many waters will have covered you,
20 detraham te cum his, qui descendunt in lacum, ad populum pristinum etcollocabo te in profundis terrae sicut ruinas a saeculo cum his, qui descenduntin lacum, ut non habiteris et consistas in terra viventium;20 and when I will have dragged you down with those who descend into the pit to the everlasting people, and when I will have assembled you in the lowest parts of the earth, like the desolate places of antiquity, with those who have been brought down into the pit, so that you will be uninhabited, and moreover, when I will have given glory to the land of the living:
21 in nihilumredigam te, et non eris et requisita non invenieris ultra in sempiternum ”,dicit Dominus Deus.
21 I will reduce you to nothing, and you shall not be, and if you are sought, you will no longer be found, in perpetuity, says the Lord God.”
