Ezechielis 38

VULGATA	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens :	1 Thus the word of the LORD came to me:
2 Fili hominis, pone faciem tuam contra Gog, terram Magog, principem capitis Mosoch et Thubal, et vaticinare de eo.	2 Son of man, turn toward Gog (the land of Magog), the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him:
3 Et dices ad eum : Hæc dicit Dominus Deus : Ecce ego ad te, Gog, principem capitis Mosoch et Thubal.	3 Thus says the Lord GOD: See! I am coming at you, Gog, chief prince of Meshech and Tubal.
4 Et circumagam te, et ponam frenum in maxillis tuis : et educam te, et omnem exercitum tuum, equos et equites vestitos loricis universos, multitudinem magnam, hastam et clypeum arripientium et gladium.	4 I will lead you forth with all your army, horses and riders all handsomely outfitted, a great horde with bucklers and shields, all of them carrying swords:
5 Persæ, Æthiopes, et Libyes cum eis, omnes scutati et galeati.	5 Persia, Cush, and Put with them (all with shields and helmets),
6 Gomer et universa agmina ejus, domus Thogorma, latera aquilonis, et totum robur ejus, populique multi tecum.	6 Gomer with all its troops, Beth-togarmah from the recesses of the north with all its troops, many peoples with you.
7 Præpara et instrue te, et omnem multitudinem tuam quæ coacervata est ad te : et esto eis in præceptum.	7 Prepare yourself, be ready, you and all your horde assembled about you, and be at my disposal.
8 Post dies multos visitaberis : in novissimo annorum venies ad terram quæ reversa est a gladio, et congregata est de populis multis ad montes Israël, qui fuerunt deserti jugiter : hæc de populis educta est, et habitabunt in ea confidenter universi.	8 After many days you will be mustered (in the last years you will come) against a nation which has survived the sword, which has been assembled from many peoples (on the mountains of Israel which were long a ruin), which has been brought forth from among the peoples and all of whom now dwell in security.
9 Ascendens autem quasi tempestas venies, et quasi nubes, ut operias terram : tu et omnia agmina tua, et populi multi tecum.	9 You shall come up like a sudden storm, advancing like a cloud to cover the earth, you and all your troops and the many peoples with you.
10 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus : In die illa, ascendent sermones super cor tuum, et cogitabis cogitationem pessimam :	10 Thus says the Lord GOD: At that time thoughts shall arise in your mind, and you shall devise an evil scheme:
11 et dices : Ascendam ad terram absque muro : veniam ad quiescentes habitantesque secure : hi omnes habitant sine muro ; vectes et portæ non sunt eis :	11 "I will go up against a land of open villages and attack the peaceful people who are living in security, all of them living without walls, having neither bars nor gates,
12 ut diripias spolia, et invadas prædam ; ut inferas manum tuam super eos qui deserti fuerant, et postea restituti, et super populum qui est congregatus ex gentibus, qui possidere cœpit et esse habitator umbilici terræ.	12 to plunder and pillage, turning my hand against the ruins that were repeopled and against a people gathered from the nations, a people concerned with cattle and goods, who dwell at the navel of the earth."
13 Saba, et Dedan, et negotiatores Tharsis, et omnes leones ejus, dicent tibi : Numquid ad sumenda spolia tu venis ? ecce ad diripiendam prædam congregasti multitudinem tuam, ut tollas argentum et aurum, et auferas supellectilem atque substantiam, et diripias manubias infinitas.	13 Sheba and Dedan, the merchants of Tarshish and all her young lions shall ask you: "Is it for plunder that you have come? Is it for pillage that you have summoned your horde, to carry off silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to seize much plunder?"
14 Propterea vaticinare, fili hominis, et dices ad Gog : Hæc dicit Dominus Deus : Numquid non in die illo, cum habitaverit populus meus Israël confidenter, scies ?	14 Therefore prophesy, son of man, and say to Gog: Thus says the Lord GOD: When my people Israel are dwelling in security, will you not bestir yourself
15 Et venies de loco tuo a lateribus aquilonis, tu et populi multi tecum, ascensores equorum universi : cœtus magnus, et exercitus vehemens.	15 and come from your home in the recesses of the north, you and many peoples with you, all mounted on horses, a great horde and a mighty army?
16 Et ascendes super populum meum Israël quasi nubes, ut operias terram. In novissimis diebus eris, et adducam te super terram meam : ut sciant gentes me cum sanctificatus fuero in te in oculis eorum, o Gog !	16 You shall come up against my people Israel like a cloud covering the land. In the last days I will bring you against my land, that the nations may know of me, when in their sight I prove my holiness through you, O Gog.
17 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus : Tu ergo ille es, de quo locutus sum in diebus antiquis in manu servorum meorum prophetarum Israël, qui prophetaverunt in diebus illorum temporum, ut adducerem te super eos.	17 Thus says the Lord GOD: It is of you that I spoke in ancient times through my servants, the prophets of Israel, who prophesied in those days that I would bring you against them.
18 Et erit in die illa, in die adventus Gog super terram Israël, ait Dominus Deus, ascendet indignatio mea in furore meo.	18 But on that day, the day when Gog invades the land of Israel, says the Lord GOD, my fury shall be aroused. In my anger
19 Et in zelo meo, in igne iræ meæ locutus sum, quia in die illa erit commotio magna super terram Israël :	19 and in my jealousy, in my fiery wrath, I swear: On that day there shall be a great shaking upon the land of Israel.
20 et commovebuntur a facie mea pisces maris, et volucres cæli, et bestiæ agri, et omne reptile quod movetur super humum, cunctique homines qui sunt super faciem terræ : et subvertentur montes, et cadent sepes, et omnis murus corruet in terram.	20 Before me shall tremble the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, the beasts of the field and all the reptiles that crawl upon the ground, and all men who are on the land. Mountains shall be overturned, and cliffs shall tumble, and every wall shall fall to the ground.
21 Et convocabo adversus eum in cunctis montibus meis gladium, ait Dominus Deus : gladius uniuscujusque in fratrem suum dirigetur.	21 Against him I will summon every terror, says the Lord GOD, every man's sword against his brother. I will hold judgment with him in pestilence and bloodshed;
22 Et judicabo eum peste, et sanguine, et imbre vehementi, et lapidibus immensis : ignem et sulphur pluam super eum, et super exercitum ejus, et super populos multos qui sunt cum eo.	22 flooding rain and hailstones, fire and brimstone, I will rain upon him, upon his troops, and upon the many peoples with him.
23 Et magnificabor, et sanctificabor, et notus ero in oculis multarum gentium : et scient quia ego Dominus.	23 I will prove my greatness and holiness and make myself known in the sight of many nations; thus they shall know that I am the LORD.
