Ezequiel 30
Riveduta 1927
1E la parola dell’Eterno mi fu rivolta in questi termini:
2“Figliuol d’uomo, profetizza e di’: Così parla il Signore, l’Eterno: Urlate: Ahi, che giorno!
3Poiché il giorno è vicino, è vicino il giorno dell’Eterno: Giorno di nuvole, il tempo delle nazioni.
4La spada verrà sull’Egitto, e vi sarà terrore in Etiopia quando in Egitto cadranno i feriti a morte, quando si porteran via le sue ricchezze, e le sue fondamenta saranno rovesciate.
5L’Etiopia, la Libia, la Lidia, Put, Lud, gli stranieri d’ogni sorta, Cub e i figli del paese dell’alleanza, cadranno con loro per la spada.
6Così parla l’Eterno: Quelli che sostengono l’Egitto cadranno, e l’orgoglio della sua forza sarà abbattuto: da Migdol a Syene essi cadranno per la spada, dice il Signore, l’Eterno,
7e saranno desolati in mezzo a terre desolate, e le loro città saranno devastate in mezzo a città devastate;
8e conosceranno che io sono l’Eterno, quando metterò il fuoco all’Egitto, e tutti i suoi ausiliari saranno fiaccati.
9In quel giorno, partiranno de’ messi dalla mia presenza su delle navi per spaventare l’Etiopia nella sua sicurtà; e regnerà fra loro il terrore come nel giorno dell’Egitto; poiché, ecco, la cosa sta per avvenire.
10Così parla il Signore, l’Eterno: Io farò sparire la moltitudine dell’Egitto per mano di Nebucadnetsar, re di Babilonia.
11Egli e il suo popolo con lui, i più violenti fra le nazioni, saran condotti a distruggere il paese; sguaineranno le spade contro l’Egitto, e riempiranno il paese d’uccisi.
12E io muterò i fiumi in luoghi aridi, darò il paese in balìa di gente malvagia, e per man di stranieri desolerò il paese e tutto ciò che contiene. Io, l’Eterno, son quegli che ho parlato.
13Così parla il Signore, l’Eterno: Io sterminerò da Nof gl’idoli, e ne farò sparire i falsi dèi; non ci sarà più principe che venga dal paese d’Egitto, e metterò la spavento nel paese d’Egitto.
14Desolerò Patros, darò alle fiamme Tsoan, eserciterò i miei giudizi su No,
15riverserò il mio furore sopra Sin, la fortezza dell’Egitto, e sterminerò la moltitudine di No.
16Appiccherò il fuoco all’Egitto; Sin si torcerà dal dolore, No sarà squarciata, Nof sarà presa da nemici in pieno giorno.
17I giovani di Aven e di Pibeseth cadranno per la spada, e queste città andranno in cattività.
18E a Tahpanes il giorno s’oscurerà, quand’io spezzerò quivi i gioghi imposti dall’Egitto; e l’orgoglio della sua forza avrà fine. Quanto a lei, una nuvola la coprirà, e le sue figliuole andranno in cattività.
19Così eserciterò i miei giudizi sull’Egitto, e si conoscerà che io sono l’Eterno”.
20L’anno undicesimo, il primo mese, il settimo giorno del mese, la parola dell’Eterno mi fu rivolta in questi termini:
21“Figliuol d’uomo, io ho spezzato il braccio di Faraone, re d’Egitto; ed ecco, il suo braccio non è stato fasciato applicandovi rimedi e mettendovi delle bende per fasciarlo e fortificarlo, in guisa da poter maneggiare una spada.
22Perciò, così parla il Signore, l’Eterno: Eccomi contro Faraone, re d’Egitto, per spezzargli le braccia, tanto quello ch’è ancora forte, quanto quello ch’è già spezzato; farò cader di mano la spada.
23E disperderò gli Egiziani fra le nazioni, e li spargerò per tutti i paesi;
24e fortificherò le braccia del re di Babilonia, e gli metterò in mano la mia spada; e spezzerò le braccia di Faraone, ed egli gemerà davanti a lui, come geme un uomo ferito a morte.
25Fortificherò le braccia del re di Babilonia, e le braccia di Faraone cadranno; e si conoscerà che io sono l’Eterno, quando metterò la mia spada in man del re di Babilonia, ed egli la volgerà contro il paese d’Egitto.
26E io disperderò gli Egiziani fra le nazioni, e li spargerò per tutti i paesi; e si conoscerà che io sono l’Eterno”.

1Y FUÉ á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:
2Hijo del hombre, profetiza, y di: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Aullad: ¡Ay del día!
3Porque cerca está el día, cerca está el día del Señor; día de nublado, día de las gentes será.
4Y vendrá espada á Egipto, y habrá miedo en Etiopía, cuando caerán heridos en Egipto; y tomarán su multitud, y serán destruídos sus fundamentos.
5Etiopía, y Libia, y Lidia, y todo el conjunto de pueblo, y Chûb, y los hijos de la tierra de la liga, caerán con ellos á cuchillo.
6Así ha dicho Jehová: También caerán los que sostienen á Egipto, y la altivez de su fortaleza caerá: desde Migdol hasta Seveneh caerán en él á cuchillo, dice el Señor Jehová.
7Y serán asolados entre las tierras asoladas, y sus ciudades serán entre las ciudades desiertas.
8Y sabrán que yo soy Jehová, cuando pusiere fuego á Egipto, y fueren quebrantados todos sus ayudadores.
9En aquel tiempo saldrán mensajeros de delante de mí en navíos, á espantar á Etiopía la confiada, y tendrán espanto como en el día de Egipto: porque he aquí viene.
10Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Haré cesar la multitud de Egipto por mano de Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia.
11El, y con él su pueblo, los más fuertes de las gentes, serán traídos á destruir la tierra: y desenvainarán sus espadas sobre Egipto, y henchirán la tierra de muertos.
12Y secaré los ríos, y entregaré la tierra en manos de malos, y destruiré la tierra y su plenitud por mano de extranjeros: yo Jehová he hablado.
13Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Destruiré también las imágenes, y haré cesar los ídolos de Memphis; y no habrá más príncipe de la tierra de Egipto, y en la tierra de Egipto pondré temor.
14Y asolaré á Patros, y pondré fuego á Zoán, y haré juicios en No.
15Y derramaré mi ira sobre Sin, fortaleza de Egipto, y talaré la multitud de No.
16Y pondré fuego á Egipto; Sin tendrá gran dolor, y No será destrozada, y Memphis tendrá continuas angustias.
17Los mancebos de Avén y de Pibeseth caerán á cuchillo; y ellas irán en cautiverio.
18Y en Tehaphnes será cerrado el día, cuando quebrantaré yo allí las barras de Egipto, y cesará en ella la soberbia de su fortaleza: nublado la cubrirá, y los moradores de sus aldeas irán en cautiverio.
19Haré pues juicios en Egipto y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.
20Y aconteció en el año undécimo, en el mes primero, á los siete del mes, que fué á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:
21Hijo del hombre, quebrantado he el brazo de Faraón rey de Egipto; y he aquí que no ha sido vendado poniéndole medicinas, poniéndole faja para ligarlo, á fin de vigorizarle para que pueda tener espada.
22Por tanto, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Heme aquí contra Faraón rey de Egipto, y quebraré sus brazos, el fuerte y el fracturado, y haré que la espada se le caiga de la mano.
23Y esparciré los Egipcios entre las gentes, y aventarélos por las tierras.
24Y fortificaré los brazos del rey de Babilonia, y pondré mi espada en su mano; mas quebraré los brazos de Faraón, y delante de aquél gemirá con gemidos de herido de muerte.
25Fortificaré pues los brazos del rey de Babilonia, y los brazos de Faraón caerán; y sabrán que yo soy Jehová, cuando yo pusiere mi espada en la mano del rey de Babilonia, y él la extendiere sobre la tierra de Egipto.
26Y esparciré los Egipcios entre las gentes, y los aventaré por las tierras; y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.
King James Version
1The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
2Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Howl ye, Woe worth the day!
3For the day is near, even the day of the LORD is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen.
4And the sword shall come upon Egypt, and great pain shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt, and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down.
5Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the mingled people, and Chub, and the men of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword.
6Thus saith the LORD; They also that uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord GOD.
7And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.
8And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed.
9In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid, and great pain shall come upon them, as in the day of Egypt: for, lo, it cometh.
10Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.
11He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall be brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
12And I will make the rivers dry, and sell the land into the hand of the wicked: and I will make the land waste, and all that is therein, by the hand of strangers: I the LORD have spoken it.
13Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause their images to cease out of Noph; and there shall be no more a prince of the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
14And I will make Pathros desolate, and will set fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments in No.
15And I will pour my fury upon Sin, the strength of Egypt; and I will cut off the multitude of No.
16And I will set fire in Egypt: Sin shall have great pain, and No shall be rent asunder, and Noph shall have distresses daily.
17The young men of Aven and of Pi-beseth shall fall by the sword: and these cities shall go into captivity.
18At Tehaphnehes also the day shall be darkened, when I shall break there the yokes of Egypt: and the pomp of her strength shall cease in her: as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go into captivity.
19Thus will I execute judgments in Egypt: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
20And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
21Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and, lo, it shall not be bound up to be healed, to put a roller to bind it, to make it strong to hold the sword.
22Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong, and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
23And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
24And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand: but I will break Pharaoh’s arms, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.
25But I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it out upon the land of Egypt.
26And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them among the countries; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

1The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
2“Son of man, prophesy, and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Wail, ‘Alas for the day!’
3For the day is near, even the LORD’s day is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of the nations.
4A sword will come on Egypt, and anguish will be in Ethiopia, when the slain fall in Egypt. They take away her multitude, and her foundations are broken down.
5“‘“Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all the mixed people, Cub, and the children of the land that is allied with them, will fall with them by the sword.”
6“‘The LORD says: “They also who uphold Egypt will fall. The pride of her power will come down. They will fall by the sword in it from the tower of Seveneh,” says the Lord GOD.
7“They will be desolate in the middle of the countries that are desolate. Her cities will be among the cities that are wasted.
8They will know that I am the LORD when I have set a fire in Egypt, and all her helpers are destroyed.
9“‘“In that day messengers will go out from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid. There will be anguish on them, as in the day of Egypt; for, behold, it comes.”
10“‘The Lord GOD says: “I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease, by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
11He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, will be brought in to destroy the land. They will draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
12I will make the rivers dry, and will sell the land into the hand of evil men. I will make the land desolate, and all that is therein, by the hand of foreigners. I, the LORD, have spoken it.”
13“‘The Lord GOD says: “I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause the images to cease from Memphis. There will be no more a prince from the land of Egypt. I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
14I will make Pathros desolate, and will set a fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments on No.
15I will pour my wrath on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt. I will cut off the multitude of No.
16I will set a fire in Egypt Sin will be in great anguish. No will be broken up. Memphis will have adversaries in the daytime.
17The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth will fall by the sword. They will go into captivity.
18At Tehaphnehes also the day will withdraw itself, when I break the yokes of Egypt there. The pride of her power will cease in her. As for her, a cloud will cover her, and her daughters will go into captivity.
19Thus I will execute judgments on Egypt. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”’”
20In the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
21“Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Behold, it has not been bound up, to apply medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it may become strong to hold the sword.
22Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong arm, and that which was broken. I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
23I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
24I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand; but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan before the king of Babylon with the groaning of a mortally wounded man.
25I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh will fall down. Then they will know that I am the LORD when I put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he stretches it out on the land of Egypt.
26I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them through the countries. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
