VULGATAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 Et factum est in undecimo anno, prima mensis : factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens :1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Fili hominis, pro eo quod dixit Tyrus de Jerusalem :
Euge, confractæ sunt portæ populorum,
conversa est ad me :
implebor ; deserta est :
2 Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people: she is turned unto me: I shall be replenished, now she is laid waste:
3 propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus :
Ecce ego super te, Tyre,
et ascendere faciam ad te gentes multas,
sicut ascendit mare fluctuans.
3 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus, and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as the sea causeth his waves to come up.
4 Et dissipabunt muros Tyri,
et destruent turres ejus :
et radam pulverem ejus de ea,
et dabo eam in limpidissimam petram.
4 And they shall destroy the walls of Tyrus, and break down her towers: I will also scrape her dust from her, and make her like the top of a rock.
5 Siccatio sagenarum erit in medio maris,
quia ego locutus sum, ait Dominus Deus :
et erit in direptionem gentibus.
5 It shall be a place for the spreading of nets in the midst of the sea: for I have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD: and it shall become a spoil to the nations.
6 Filiæ quoque ejus quæ sunt in agro,
gladio interficientur :
et scient quia ego Dominus.
6 And her daughters which are in the field shall be slain by the sword; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
7 Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus :
Ecce ego adducam ad Tyrum
Nabuchodonosor regem Babylonis ab aquilone,
regem regum,
cum equis, et curribus, et equitibus,
et cœtu, populoque magno.
7 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring upon Tyrus Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, a king of kings, from the north, with horses, and with chariots, and with horsemen, and companies, and much people.
8 Filias tuas quæ sunt in agro, gladio interficiet,
et circumdabit te munitionibus,
et comportabit aggerem in gyro,
et elevabit contra te clypeum :
8 He shall slay with the sword thy daughters in the field: and he shall make a fort against thee, and cast a mount against thee, and lift up the buckler against thee.
9 et vineas et arietes temperabit in muros tuos,
et turres tuas destruet in armatura sua.
9 And he shall set engines of war against thy walls, and with his axes he shall break down thy towers.
10 Inundatione equorum ejus operiet te pulvis eorum :
a sonitu equitum, et rotarum, et curruum, movebuntur muri tui,
cum ingressus fuerit portas tuas quasi per introitum urbis dissipatæ.
10 By reason of the abundance of his horses their dust shall cover thee: thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wheels, and of the chariots, when he shall enter into thy gates, as men enter into a city wherein is made a breach.
11 Ungulis equorum suorum conculcabit omnes plateas tuas :
populum tuum gladio cædet,
et statuæ tuæ nobiles in terram corruent.
11 With the hoofs of his horses shall he tread down all thy streets: he shall slay thy people by the sword, and thy strong garrisons shall go down to the ground.
12 Vastabunt opes tuas,
diripient negotiationes tuas,
et destruent muros tuos,
et domos tuas præclaras subvertent :
et lapides tuos, et ligna tua, et pulverem tuum
in medio aquarum ponent.
12 And they shall make a spoil of thy riches, and make a prey of thy merchandise: and they shall break down thy walls, and destroy thy pleasant houses: and they shall lay thy stones and thy timber and thy dust in the midst of the water.
13 Et quiescere faciam multitudinem canticorum tuorum :
et sonitus cithararum tuarum non audietur amplius.
13 And I will cause the noise of thy songs to cease; and the sound of thy harps shall be no more heard.
14 Et dabo te in limpidissimam petram,
siccatio sagenarum eris,
nec ædificaberis ultra,
quia ego locutus sum, ait Dominus Deus.
14 And I will make thee like the top of a rock: thou shalt be a place to spread nets upon; thou shalt be built no more: for I the LORD have spoken it, saith the Lord GOD.
15 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Tyro :
Numquid non a sonitu ruinæ tuæ,
et gemitu interfectorum tuorum,
cum occisi fuerint in medio tui,
commovebuntur insulæ ?
15 Thus saith the Lord GOD to Tyrus; Shall not the isles shake at the sound of thy fall, when the wounded cry, when the slaughter is made in the midst of thee?
16 Et descendent de sedibus suis omnes principes maris,
et auferent exuvias suas,
et vestimenta sua varia abjicient,
et induentur stupore :
in terra sedebunt,
et attoniti super repentino casu tuo admirabuntur :
16 Then all the princes of the sea shall come down from their thrones, and lay away their robes, and put off their broidered garments: they shall clothe themselves with trembling; they shall sit upon the ground, and shall tremble at every moment, and be astonished at thee.
17 et assumentes super te lamentum, dicent tibi :
Quomodo peristi, quæ habitas in mari, urbs inclyta,
quæ fuisti fortis in mari cum habitatoribus tuis,
quos formidabant universi ?
17 And they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and say to thee, How art thou destroyed, that wast inhabited of seafaring men, the renowned city, which wast strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, which cause their terror to be on all that haunt it!
18 Nunc stupebunt naves in die pavoris tui,
et turbabuntur insulæ in mari,
eo quod nullus egrediatur ex te.
18 Now shall the isles tremble in the day of thy fall; yea, the isles that are in the sea shall be troubled at thy departure.
19 Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus :
Cum dedero te urbem desolatam,
sicut civitates quæ non habitantur ;
et adduxero super te abyssum,
et operuerint te aquæ multæ ;
19 For thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall make thee a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited; when I shall bring up the deep upon thee, and great waters shall cover thee;
20 et detraxero te cum his qui descendunt in lacum
ad populum sempiternum ;
et collocavero te in terra novissima sicut solitudines veteres,
cum his qui deducuntur in lacum,
ut non habiteris ;
porro cum dedero gloriam in terra viventium :
20 When I shall bring thee down with them that descend into the pit, with the people of old time, and shall set thee in the low parts of the earth, in places desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit, that thou be not inhabited; and I shall set glory in the land of the living;
21 in nihilum redigam te, et non eris :
et requisita non invenieris ultra in sempiternum,
dicit Dominus Deus.
21 I will make thee a terror, and thou shalt be no more: though thou be sought for, yet shalt thou never be found again, saith the Lord GOD.
