| 17 καὶ ἐγενήθη ἐν τῷ δωδεκάτῳ ἔτει τοῦ πρώτου μηνὸς πεντεκαιδεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου πρός με λέγων 18 υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου θρήνησον ἐπὶ τὴν ἰσχὺν Αἰγύπτου καὶ καταβιβάσουσιν αὐτῆς τὰς θυγατέρας τὰ ἔθνη νεκρὰς εἰς τὸ βάθος τῆς γῆς πρὸς τοὺς καταβαίνοντας εἰς βόθρον 19 20 ἐν μέσῳ τραυματιῶν μαχαίρας πεσοῦνται με{T'} αὐτοῦ καὶ κοιμηθήσεται πᾶσα ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ 21 καὶ ἐροῦσίν σοι οἱ γίγαντες ἐν βάθει βόθρου γίνου τίνος κρείττων εἶ κατάβηθι καὶ κοιμήθητι μετὰ ἀπεριτμήτων ἐν μέσῳ τραυματιῶν μαχαίρας 22 ἐκεῖ Ασσουρ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ συναγωγὴ αὐτοῦ πάντες τραυματίαι ἐκεῖ ἐδόθησαν καὶ ἡ ταφὴ αὐτῶν ἐν βάθει βόθρου καὶ ἐγενήθη ἡ συναγωγὴ αὐτοῦ περικύκλῳ τοῦ μνήματος αὐτοῦ πάντες οἱ τραυματίαι οἱ πεπτωκότες μαχαίρᾳ 23 οἱ δόντες τὸν φόβον αὐτῶν ἐπὶ γῆς ζωῆς 24 ἐκεῖ αιλαμ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δύναμις αὐτοῦ περικύκλῳ τοῦ μνήματος αὐτοῦ πάντες οἱ τραυματίαι οἱ πεπτωκότες μαχαίρᾳ καὶ οἱ καταβαίνοντες ἀπερίτμητοι εἰς γῆς βάθος οἱ δεδωκότες αὐτῶν φόβον ἐπὶ γῆς ζωῆς καὶ ἐλάβοσαν τὴν βάσανον αὐτῶν μετὰ τῶν καταβαινόντων εἰς βόθρον 25 ἐν μέσῳ τραυματιῶν 26 ἐκεῖ ἐδόθησαν Μοσοχ καὶ Θοβελ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτῶν περικύκλῳ τοῦ μνήματος αὐτοῦ πάντες τραυματίαι αὐτοῦ πάντες ἀπερίτμητοι τραυματίαι ἀπὸ μαχαίρας οἱ δεδωκότες τὸν φόβον αὐτῶν ἐπὶ γῆς ζωῆς 27 καὶ ἐκοιμήθησαν μετὰ τῶν γιγάντων τῶν πεπτωκότων ἀπὸ αἰῶνος οἳ κατέβησαν εἰς ᾅδου ἐν ὅπλοις πολεμικοῖς καὶ ἔθηκαν τὰς μαχαίρας αὐτῶν ὑπὸ τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν καὶ ἐγενήθησαν αἱ ἀνομίαι αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τῶν ὀστῶν αὐτῶν ὅτι ἐξεφόβησαν γίγαντας ἐν γῇ ζωῆς 28 καὶ σὺ ἐν μέσῳ ἀπεριτμήτων κοιμηθήσῃ μετὰ τετραυματισμένων μαχαίρᾳ 29 ἐκεῖ ἐδόθησαν οἱ ἄρχοντες Ασσουρ οἱ δόντες τὴν ἰσχὺν αὐτοῦ εἰς τραῦμα μαχαίρας οὗτοι μετὰ τραυματιῶν ἐκοιμήθησαν μετὰ καταβαινόντων εἰς βόθρον 30 ἐκεῖ οἱ ἄρχοντες τοῦ βορρᾶ πάντες στρατηγοὶ Ασσουρ οἱ καταβαίνοντες τραυματίαι σὺν τῷ φόβῳ αὐτῶν καὶ τῇ ἰσχύι αὐτῶν ἐκοιμήθησαν ἀπερίτμητοι μετὰ τραυματιῶν μαχαίρας καὶ ἀπήνεγκαν τὴν βάσανον αὐτῶν μετὰ τῶν καταβαινόντων εἰς βόθρον 31 ἐκείνους ὄψεται βασιλεὺς Φαραω καὶ παρακληθήσεται ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν ἰσχὺν αὐτῶν λέγει κύριος κύριος 32 ὅτι δέδωκα τὸν φόβον αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ γῆς ζωῆς καὶ κοιμηθήσεται ἐν μέσῳ ἀπεριτμήτων μετὰ τραυματιῶν μαχαίρας Φαραω καὶ πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος αὐτοῦ λέγει κύριος κύριος |
17 And in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, this: 18 Son of man, a dirge now for the common folk of Egypt; sing Egypt to her grave, and with her those other proud nations that must go down into the dark: 19 Measure not thy beauty against another’s; to thy grave get thee, and with the uncircumcised take thy rest. 20 The sword carries off all alike; once loose it, she and all her multitudes must perish. 21 From the tomb they greet the newcomer, those great warriors, men of the uncircumcised races, allies once, that now lie there, slain in battle.[1] 22 Here is the Assyrian king with all his muster-roll; how their graves ring him about, dead warriors all! 23 Down there in the dark, his grave and theirs around him, dead now in battle, that once daunted the hearts of the living! 24 Here are the Elamites, too, lying about their king, men uncircumcised that made themselves feared in life, and now lie in the pit beneath with all those others, stripped and shamed as they were left on the battle-field; 25 (here he lies, with his men about him for monument, once so feared; stripped and shamed they lie, Elamites uncircumcised, there in the dark, there amongst the slain).[2] 26 Uncircumcised, too, the king of Mosoch and Thubal, with all his retinue buried around him, dead now and feared no longer; 27 shall they not sleep on there with the slain warriors, with the uncircumcised, still armed, swords beneath their heads; their corpses lawless yet, and feared no longer?[3] 28 Thy place too, the place of thy slain warriors, is with the uncircumcised in their ruin. 29 King and chief of the Edomites[4] lie slain among the uncircumcised, there in the dark; 30 so do all the kings of the north, and the Sidonians, dismayed now and trusting no more in their own valour, stripped and shamed. 31 Well may Pharao and his men be comforted by that sight over the multitude of their slain, the Lord God says. 32 He too, in this living world, wielded my terrors; he too lies there, the Lord God says, slain in battle, with the uncircumcised about him. |
17 Et factum est in duodecimo anno, in quintadecima mensis: factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens: 18
Fili hominis, cane lugubre super multitudinem Ægypti:
et detrahe eam ipsam, et filias gentium robustarum, ad terram ultimam,
cum his qui descendunt in lacum. 19
Quo pulchrior es?
descende, et dormi cum incircumcisis. 20
In medio interfectorum gladio cadent;
gladius datus est:
attraxerunt eam et omnes populos ejus. 21
Loquentur ei potentissimi robustorum de medio inferni,
qui cum auxiliatoribus ejus descenderunt,
et dormierunt incircumcisi interfecti gladio. 22
Ibi Assur, et omnis multitudo ejus:
in circuitu illius sepulchra ejus,
omnes interfecti, et qui ceciderunt gladio. 23
Quorum data sunt sepulchra in novissimis laci,
et facta est multitudo ejus per gyrum sepulchri ejus:
universi interfecti, cadentesque gladio,
qui dederant quondam formidinem in terra viventium. 24
Ibi Ælam, et omnis multitudo ejus per gyrum sepulchri sui:
omnes hi interfecti, ruentesque gladio,
qui descenderunt incircumcisi ad terram ultimam;
qui posuerunt terrorem suum in terra viventium,
et portaverunt ignominiam suam cum his qui descendunt in lacum. 25
In medio interfectorum
posuerunt cubile ejus in universis populis ejus:
in circuitu ejus sepulchrum illius:
omnes hi incircumcisi, interfectique gladio.
Dederunt enim terrorem suum in terra viventium,
et portaverunt ignominiam suam cum his qui descendunt in lacum:
in medio interfectorum positi sunt. 26
Ibi Mosoch et Thubal, et omnis multitudo ejus:
in circuitu ejus sepulchra illius:
omnes hi incircumcisi, interfectique et cadentes gladio,
quia dederunt formidinem suam in terra viventium. 27
Et non dormient cum fortibus,
cadentibusque, et incircumcisis,
qui descenderunt ad infernum cum armis suis,
et posuerunt gladios suos sub capitibus suis,
et fuerunt iniquitates eorum in ossibus eorum:
quia terror fortium facti sunt in terra viventium. 28
Et tu ergo in medio incircumcisorum contereris,
et dormies cum interfectis gladio. 29
Ibi Idumæa, et reges ejus, et omnes duces ejus,
qui dati sunt cum exercitu suo cum interfectis gladio,
et qui cum incircumcisis dormierunt,
et cum his qui descendunt in lacum. 30
Ibi principes aquilonis omnes, et universi venatores,
qui deducti sunt cum interfectis, paventes,
et in sua fortitudine confusi:
qui dormierunt incircumcisi
cum interfectis gladio,
et portaverunt confusionem suam
cum his qui descendunt in lacum. 31
Vidit eos Pharao, et consolatus est
super universa multitudine sua,
quæ interfecta est gladio:
Pharao, et omnis exercitus ejus,
ait Dominus Deus. 32
Quia dedi terrorem meum in terra viventium,
et dormivit in medio incircumcisorum cum interfectis gladio:
Pharao, et omnis multitudo ejus,
ait Dominus Deus. |
