Ezequiel 32

1El año duodécimo, el día primero del duodécimo mes, me fue dirigida la palabra de Yahvé, que dijo:

2“Hijo de hombre, entona una elegía sobre el Faraón, rey de Egipto y dile: Eras cual leoncillo entre las gentes, eras como un cocodrilo en las aguas; te revolvías en tus ríos, enturbiando las aguas con tus pies y ensuciando sus corrientes.

3Así dice Yahvé, el Señor: Tenderé sobre ti mi red en medio de un concurso de muchos pueblos, que te sacarán con mi red.

4Te arrojaré en tierra te extenderé sobre el campo; haré posar sobre ti todas las aves del cielo, y saciaré de ti a las bestias de toda la tierra.

5Pondré tus carnes sobre los montes y llenaré de tu carroña los valles.

6Con tu sangre regaré tu fétida tierra, hasta la altura de las montañas; y se llenarán de ti las hondonadas.

7Al extinguirte cubriré el cielo y oscureceré sus estrellas; taparé el sol con una nube y la luna ya no despedirá su luz.

8A causa de ti vestiré de luto a todos los luminares que brillan en el cielo, y cubriré de tinieblas tu tierra, dice Yahvé, el Señor.

9Afligiré el corazón de muchos pueblos, cuando haga llegar (la noticia de) tu ruina a las naciones, a países que no conocías.

10Haré que por ti queden atónitos numerosos pueblos, y por ti se estremecerán de terror sus reyes, cuando Yo esgrima ante ellos mi espada; temblarán sin cesar, cada cual por su vida, en el día de tu caída.

11Porque así dice Yahvé, el Señor: Vendrá sobre ti la espada del rey de Babilonia.

12Abatiré tu multitud con la espada de los valientes; son todos ellos los más feroces de los pueblos; destruirán el orgullo de Egipto, y será deshecha toda su multitud.

13Exterrninaré todas sus bestias junto a las copiosas aguas, y no las enturbiará más pie de hombre, ni pezuña de bestia.

14Entonces volveré limpias sus aguas; y haré correr sus ríos como aceite, dice Yahvé, el Señor.

15Cuando Yo convierta la tierra de Egipto en desierto, despojando el país de cuanto contiene, e hiera a todos sus habitantes, conocerán que Yo soy Yahvé.

16Esta es la elegía que se cantará. La entonarán las hijas de las naciones; la cantarán sobre Egipto y toda su multitud”, dice Yahvé, el Señor.

17El año duodécimo, el quince del mes, me fue dirigida la palabra de Yahvé, que dijo:

18“Hijo de hombre, compón un canto lúgubre sobre la multitud de Egipto, y arrójala, a ella y a las hijas de las naciones poderosas, a las profundidades de la tierra, con los que bajan a la fosa.

19¿A quién superas (ahora) en hermosura? ¡Baja y acuéstate entre los incircuncisos!

20Caerán ellos en medio de muertos a espada; entregada será (Egipto) al cuchillo; ¡sacadla fuera, con todas sus multitudes!

21En medio del scheol le dirigirán la palabra los más poderosos de los potentados, así como a sus auxiliadores (diciendo): «Han descendido, yacen los incircuncisos, traspasados por la espada».

22Allí se halla Asur, con toda su gente, en torno suyo están sus sepulcros; todos yacen traspasados, caídos a cuchillo, en sepulcros situados en lo más hondo de la fosa.

23Alrededor de su sepulcro está toda su gente, todos ellos traspasados, caídos a cuchillo, los que fueron el terror de la tierra de los vivientes.

24Allí está Elam, con toda su multitud en torno a su sepulcro; todos ellos traspasados, caídos a cuchillo, que descendieron incircuncisos a las profundidades de la tierra. Los que fueron el terror de la tierra de los vivientes, llevan su ignominia con los bajados a la fosa.

25En medio de los traspasados, colocaron su lecho para él y todo su pueblo, en torno a sus sepulcros; todos ellos incircuncisos, pasados a cuchillo. Esparcieron el terror en la tierra de los vivientes; mas llevan (ahora) su ignominia con los bajados a la fosa; yacen en medio de los muertos.

26Allí está Mósoc, Tubal y toda su gente, en torno a sus sepulcros, todos ellos incircuncisos, pasados a cuchillo, por haber sido el terror de la tierra de los vivientes.

27Y no yacen entre los héroes de los incircuncisos, que cayeron y descendieron al scheol con sus armas de guerra, la espada debajo de sus cabezas, y el escudo sobre sus huesos, por haber sido el terror de los fuertes en la tierra de los vivientes.

28Así también tú serás quebrantado con los incircuncisos; y yacerás con los muertos a espada.

29Allí está Edom, sus reyes y todos sus príncipes, que a pesar de sus hazañas han sido puestos entre los muertos a cuchillo, yacen entre los incircuncisos, entre los que descendieron a la fosa.

30Allí están los príncipes del Norte, todos ellos y todos los sidonios; bajaron con los traspasados por la espada, a pesar del terror que inspiraba su fortaleza. Están confundidos y yacen, incircuncisos, con los pasados a cuchillo, llevando su ignominia con los bajados a la fosa.

31Al verlos, el Faraón se consolará de toda su multitud. Muertos a espada están el Faraón y todo su ejército, dice Yahvé, el Señor.

32Pues aunque le puse por terror en la tierra de los vivientes, el Faraón yacerá entre los incircuncisos, entre los pasados a cuchillo; él y toda su mucha gente” —oráculo de Yahvé.

1Et factum est, duodecimo anno, in mense duodecimo, in una mensis: factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:

2Fili hominis, assume lamentum super Pharaonem regem Ægypti, et dices ad eum: [Leoni gentium assimilatus es, et draconi qui est in mari: et ventilabas cornu in fluminibus tuis, et conturbabas aquas pedibus tuis, et conculcabas flumina earum.

3Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Expandam super te rete meum in multitudine populorum multorum, et extraham te in sagena mea.

4Et projiciam te in terram; super faciem agri abjiciam te: et habitare faciam super te omnia volatilia cæli, et saturabo de te bestias universæ terræ.

5Et dabo carnes tuas super montes, et implebo colles tuos sanie tua.

6Et irrigabo terram fœtore sanguinis tui super montes, et valles implebuntur ex te.

7Et operiam, cum extinctus fueris, cælum, et nigrescere faciam stellas ejus: solem nube tegam, et luna non dabit lumen suum.

8Omnia luminaria cæli mœrere faciam super te, et dabo tenebras super terram tuam, dicit Dominus Deus, cum ceciderint vulnerati tui in medio terræ, ait Dominus Deus.

9Et irritabo cor populorum multorum, cum induxero contritionem tuam in gentibus super terras quas nescis.

10Et stupescere faciam super te populos multos, et reges eorum horrore nimio formidabunt super te, cum volare cœperit gladius meus super facies eorum: et obstupescent repente singuli pro anima sua in die ruinæ tuæ.

11Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Gladius regis Babylonis veniet tibi.

12In gladiis fortium dejiciam multitudinem tuam: inexpugnabiles omnes gentes hæ, et vastabunt superbiam Ægypti, et dissipabitur multitudo ejus.

13Et perdam omnia jumenta ejus, quæ erant super aquas plurimas: et non conturbabit eas pes hominis ultra, neque ungula jumentorum turbabit eas.

14Tunc purissimas reddam aquas eorum, et flumina eorum quasi oleum adducam, ait Dominus Deus,

15cum dedero terram Ægypti desolatam: deseretur autem terra a plenitudine sua quando percussero omnes habitatores ejus: et scient quia ego Dominus.

16Planctus est, et plangent eum: filiæ gentium plangent eum: super Ægyptum et super multitudinem ejus plangent eum, ait Dominus Deus.]

17Et 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.

19Quo pulchrior es? descende, et dormi cum incircumcisis.

20In medio interfectorum gladio cadent; gladius datus est: attraxerunt eam et omnes populos ejus.

21Loquentur ei potentissimi robustorum de medio inferni, qui cum auxiliatoribus ejus descenderunt, et dormierunt incircumcisi interfecti gladio.

22Ibi Assur, et omnis multitudo ejus: in circuitu illius sepulchra ejus, omnes interfecti, et qui ceciderunt gladio.

23Quorum 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.

24Ibi 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.

25In 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.

26Ibi 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.

27Et 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.

28Et tu ergo in medio incircumcisorum contereris, et dormies cum interfectis gladio.

29Ibi 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.

30Ibi 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.

31Vidit eos Pharao, et consolatus est super universa multitudine sua, quæ interfecta est gladio: Pharao, et omnis exercitus ejus, ait Dominus Deus.

32Quia dedi terrorem meum in terra viventium, et dormivit in medio incircumcisorum cum interfectis gladio: Pharao, et omnis multitudo ejus, ait Dominus Deus.]

1And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

2Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharao the king of Egypt, and say to him: Thou art like the lion of the nations, and the dragon that is in the sea: and thou didst push with the horn in thy rivers, and didst trouble the waters with thy feet, and didst trample upon their streams.

3Therefore, thus saith the Lord God: I will spread out my net over thee with the multitude of many people, and I will draw thee up in my net.

4And I will throw thee out on the land, I will cast thee away into the open field: and I will cause all the fowls of the air to dwell upon thee, and I will fill the beasts of all the earth with thee.

5And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, and will fill thy hills with thy corruption,

6And I will water the earth with thy stinking blood upon the mountains, and the valleys shall be filled with thee.

7And I will cover the heavens, when thou shalt be put out, and I will make the stars thereof dark: I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.

8I will make all the lights of heaven to mourn over thee: and I will cause darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord God, when thy wounded shall fall in the midst of the land, saith the Lord God.

9And I shall provoke to anger the heart of many people, when I shall have brought in thy destruction among the nations upon the lands, which thou knowest not.

10And I will make many people to be amazed at thee, and their kings shell be horribly afraid for thee, when my sword shall begin to fly upon their faces: and they shall be astonished on a sudden, every one for his own life, in the day of their ruin.

11For thus saith the Lord God: The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon thee,

12By the swords of the mighty I will overthrow thy multitude: all these nations are invincible: and they shall waste the pride of Egypt, and the multitude thereof shall be destroyed.

13I will destroy also all the beasts thereof that were beside the great waters: and the foot of man shall trouble them no more, neither shall the hoof of beasts trouble them.

14Then will I make their waters clear, and cause their rivers to run like oil, saith the Lord God:

15When I shall have made the land of Egypt desolate: and the land shall be destitute of her fulness, when I shall have struck all the inhabitants thereof: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

16This is the lamentation, and they shall lament therewith: the daughters of the nations shall lament therewith: for Egypt, and for the multitude thereof they shall lament therewith, saith the Lord God.

17And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth day of the month that the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

18Son of man, sing a mournful song for the multitude of Egypt: and cast her down, both her, and the daughters of the mighty nations to the lowest part of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.

19Whom dost thou excel in beauty? go down and sleep with the uncircumcised.

20They shall fall in the midst of them that are slain with the sword: the sword is given, they have drawn her down, and all her people.

21The most mighty among the strong ones shall speak to him from the midst of hell, they that went down with his helpers, and slept uncircumcised, slain by the sword.

22Assur is there, and all his multitude: their graves are round about him, all of them slain, and that fell by the sword.

23Whose graves are set in the lowest parts of the pit: and his multitude lay round about his grave: all of them slain, and fallen by the sword, they that heretofore spread terror in the land of the living.

24There is Elam and all his multitude round about his grave, all of them slain, and fallen by the sword; that went down uncircumcised to the lowest parts of the earth: that caused their terror in the land of the living, and they have borne their shame with them that go down into the pit.

25In the midst of the slain they have set him a bed among all his people: their graves are round about him: all these are uncircumcised, and slain by the sword: for they spread their terror in the land of the living, and have borne their shame with them that descend into the pit: they are laid in the midst of the slain.

26There is Mosoch, and Thubal, and all their multitude: their graves are round about him: all of them uncircumcised and slain, and fallen by the sword: though they spread their terror in the land of the living.

27And they shall not sleep with the brave, and with them that fell uncircumcised, that went down to hell with their weapons, and laid their swords under their heads, and their iniquities were in their bones, because they were the terror of the mighty in the land of the living.

28So thou also shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt sleep with them that are slain by the sword.

29There is Edom, and her kings, and all her princes, who with their army are joined with them that are slain by the sword: and have slept with the uncircumcised, and with them that go down into the pit.

30There are all the princes of the north, and all the hunters: who were brought down with the slain, fearing, and confounded in their strength: who slept uncircumcised with them that are slain by the sword, and have borne their shame with them that go down into the pit.

31Pharao saw them, and he was comforted concerning all his multitude, which was slain by the sword: Pharao, and all his army, saith the Lord God:

32Because I have spread my terror in the land of the living, and he hath slept in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that are slain by the sword: Pharao and all his multitude, saith the Lord God.
