1The burden of Egypt. Behold the Lord will ascend upon a swift cloud, and will enter into Egypt, and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst thereof.Annunzio pesante contro l'Egitto: Ecco, che il Signore salirà sopra una nuvola leggera, ed entrerà in Egitto, e alla presenza di lui si conturberanno i simolacri d'Egitto, e verrà meno il cuore nel petto all'Egitto.THE burden of Aegypt. Behold our Lord wil ascend vpon a swift cloude, and wil enter into Aegypt, and the idols of Aegypt shal be moued at his presence, & the hart of Aegypt shal melt in the middes therof.Onus Ægypti. Ecce Dominus ascendet super nubem levem, / et ingredietur Ægyptum, / et commovebuntur simulacra Ægypti a facie ejus, / et cor Ægypti tabescet in medio ejus, 2And I will set the Egyptians to fight against the Egyptians: and they shall fight brother against brother, and friend against friend, city against city, kingdom against kingdom.E farò, che vengano alle mani Egiziani con Egiziani, e combatterà l'uomo contro iL proprio fratello, e l'uomo contro del suo amico, città contro città, regno contro regno.And I wil make the Aegyptians to runne together against the Aegyptians: and a man shal fight against his brother, and euerie man against his freind, citie against citie, hingdom against kingdom.et concurrere faciam Ægyptios adversus Ægyptios; / et pugnabit vir contra fratrem suum, et vir contra amicum suum, / civitas adversus civitatem, regnum adversus regnum. 3And the spirit of Egypt shall be broken in the bowels thereof, and I will cast down their counsel: and they shall consult their idols, and their diviners, and their wizards, and soothsayers.E l'Egitto resterà senza spirito nelle sue viscere, e distruggerò i suoi consigli, e consulteranno i loro simulacri, e i loro indovini, e i pitoni, e i maghi.And the spirit of Aegypt shal be broken in the bowels therof, and I wil ouerthrow their counsel headlong: and they shal aske their idols, and their diuiners, and Pythons, and Southsayers.Et dirumpetur spiritus Ægypti in visceribus ejus, / et consilium ejus præcipitabo; / et interrogabunt simulacra sua, et divinos suos, / et pythones, et ariolos. 4And I will deliver Egypt into the hand of cruel masters, and a strong king shall rule over them, saith the Lord the God of hosts.E darò l'Egitto in balia di padroni crudeli, e un re fiero gli dominerà, dice il Signore Dio degli eserciti.And I wil deliuer Aegypt into the hand of cruel masters, and a strong king shal rule ouer them, sayth our Lord the God of hostes.Et tradam Ægyptum in manu dominorum crudelium, / et rex fortis dominabitur eorum, / ait Dominus Deus exercituum.

5And the water of the sea shall be dried up, and the river shall be wasted and dry.E il mare resterà senz'acqua, e il fiume si sperderà, e si seccherà.And the water of the sea shal be dried vp, and the riuer shal be made desolate, and drie.Et arescet aqua de mari, / et fluvius desolabitur atque siccabitur. 6And the rivers shall fail: the streams of the banks shall be diminished, and be dried up. The reed and the bulrush shall wither away.E i fiumi mancheranno, caleranno, e resteranno asciutti i canali arginati, la canna, e il giunco anderanno male:And the riuers shal faile: the riuers of the ramppiers shal be diminished, & dried vp. The reede and bulrush shal wither:Et deficient flumina, / attenuabuntur et siccabuntur rivi aggerum, / calamus et juncus marcescet. 7The channel of the river shall be laid bare from its fountain, and every thing sown by the water shall be dried up, it shall wither away, and shall be no more.Il letto del canale sarà asciutto là, dove comincia, e tutta la semente, che si adacquava, seccherà, diventerà arida, e perirà.the chanel of the riuer shal be spoiled of his fountayne, and al sowne corne filde that is watered shal be dried vp, it shal wither, and shal not be.Nudabitur alveus rivi a fonte suo, / et omnis sementis irrigua / siccabitur, arescet, et non erit. 8The fishers also shall mourn, and all that cast a hook into the river shall lament, and they that spread nets upon the waters shall languish away.E saranno afflitti i pescatori, e piangeranno tutti quelli, che gettan l'amo nel fiume, e que', che stendono la rete sopra le acque, si consumeran di dolore.And the fishers shal lament, and al that cast angle into the riuer shal moorne, and they that sprede net vpon the face of the water shal pine away.Et mœrebunt piscatores, / et lugebunt omnes mittentes in flumen hamum; / et expandentes rete super faciem aquarum emarcescent. 9They shall be confounded that wrought in flax, combing and weaving fine linen.Saranno confusi que', che lavoravano il lino, e lo pettinavano, e ne facevan de' fini lavori.They shal be confounded that wrought twisting flaxe, kombing and weauing fine thinges.Confundentur qui operabantur linum, / pectentes et texentes subtilia. 10And its watery places shall be dry, all they shall mourn that made pools to take fishes.(Perocché i luoghi bagnati dalle acque saranno sfruttati), e tutti que', che facevan fosse per pigliar pesci.And the watred places therof shal be drie, al they that made pooles to take fishes.Et erunt irrigua ejus flaccentia: / omnes qui faciebant lacunas ad capiendos pisces.

11The princes of Tanis are become fools, the wise counsellors of Pharao have given foolish counsel: how will you say to Pharao: I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings?Stolti i principi di Tanes, i sapienti consiglieri di Faraone han dato un consiglio stolto. Come suggerirete voi a Faraone (che dica): Io figliuolo de' sapienti, io figliuolo de' regi antichi?The princes of Tanis are fooles, the wise counselers of Pharao haue geuen vnwise counsel: how say ye vnto Pharao: I am the sonne of the wise, the sonne of the ancient kinges?Stulti principes Taneos, / sapientes consiliarii Pharaonis / dederunt consilium insipiens. / Quomodo dicetis Pharaoni: / Filius sapientium ego, / filius regum antiquorum ? 12Where are now thy wise men? let them tell thee, and shew what the Lord of hosts hath purposed upon Egypt.Dove son ora i tuoi sapienti? annunzino a te, e ti espongano quello, che il Signore degli eserciti ha pensato sopra l'Egitto.Where are now thy wise men? let them tel thee, and shew what the Lord of hostes hath thought concerning Aegypt.Ubi nunc sunt sapientes tui ? / annuntient tibi, et indicent / quid cogitaverit Dominus exercituum super Ægyptum. 13The princes of Tanis are become fools, the princes of Memphis are gone astray, they have deceived Egypt, the stay of the people thereof.Stolti son divenuti i principi di Tanes, han perduto il cuore i principi di Memphi, hanno ingannato l'Egitto, capo de' popoli di lui.The princes of Tanis are become fooles, the princes of Nemphis are withered away, they haue deceiued Aegypt, the corner of the peoples therof.Stulti facti sunt principes Taneos, / emarcuerunt principes Mempheos; / deceperunt Ægyptum, angulum populorum ejus. 14The Lord hath mingled in the midst thereof the spirit of giddiness: and they have caused Egypt to err in all its works, as a drunken man staggereth and vomiteth.Il Signore ha diffuso in mezzo a loro lo spirito di vertigine, ed eglino hanno fatto, che l'Egitto erri in tutto quello, ch'ei fa, come va errando un briaco, che vomita.Our Lord hath mingled in the middes therof the spirit of gladnes: and they haue made Aegypt to erre in euerie worke therof, as he erreth that is drunke and vomiteth.Dominus miscuit in medio ejus spiritum vertiginis; / et errare fecerunt Ægyptum in omni opere suo, / sicut errat ebrius et vomens. 15And there shall be no work for Egypt, to make head or tail, him that bendeth down, or that holdeth back.È l'Egitto non farà opera, in cui si distingua il capo, e la coda, il suddito, e il superiore.And Aegypt shal haue no worke, to make the head and the taile the peruerter, and restrayner.Et non erit Ægypto opus / quod faciat caput et caudam, / incurvantem et refrenantem.
