1 La onzième année, le premier jour du mois, la parole de l'Eternel me fut adressée, en ces mots:

2 Fils de l'homme, parce que Tyr a dit sur Jérusalem: Ah! ah! Elle est brisée, la porte des peuples! On se tourne vers moi, Je me remplirai, elle est déserte!

3 A cause de cela, ainsi parle le Seigneur, l'Eternel: Voici, j'en veux à toi, Tyr! Je ferai monter contre toi des nations nombreuses, Comme la mer fait monter ses flots.

4 Elles détruiront les murs de Tyr, Elles abattront ses tours, Et j'en raclerai la poussière; Je ferai d'elle un rocher nu;

5 Elle sera dans la mer un lieu où l'on étendra les filets; Car j'ai parlé, dit le Seigneur, l'Eternel. Elle sera la proie des nations.

6 Ses filles sur son territoire Seront tuées par l'épée. Et ils sauront que je suis l'Eternel.

7 Car ainsi parle le Seigneur, l'Eternel: Voici, j'amène du septentrion contre Tyr Nebucadnetsar, roi de Babylone, le roi des rois, avec des chevaux, des chars, des cavaliers, et une grande multitude de peuples.

8 Il tuera par l'épée tes filles sur ton territoire; il fera contre toi des retranchements, il élèvera contre toi des terrasses, et il dressera contre toi le bouclier.

9 Il dirigera les coups de son bélier contre tes murs, et il renversera tes tours avec ses machines.

10 La multitude de ses chevaux te couvrira de poussière; tes murs trembleront au bruit des cavaliers, des roues et des chars, lorsqu'il entrera dans tes portes comme on entre dans une ville conquise.

11 Il foulera toutes tes rues avec les sabots de ses chevaux, il tuera ton peuple par l'épée, et les monuments de ton orgueil tomberont à terre.

12 On enlèvera tes richesses, on pillera tes marchandises, on abattra tes murs, on renversera tes maisons de plaisance, et l'on jettera au milieu des eaux tes pierres, ton bois, et ta poussière.

13 Je ferai cesser le bruit de tes chants, et l'on n'entendra plus le son de tes harpes.

14 Je ferai de toi un rocher nu; tu seras un lieu où l'on étendra les filets; tu ne seras plus rebâtie. Car moi, l'Eternel, j'ai parlé, dit le Seigneur, l'Eternel.

15 Ainsi parle à Tyr le Seigneur, l'Eternel: Au bruit de ta chute, Quand les mourants gémissent, Quand le carnage est dans ton sein, Les îles tremblent.

16 Tous les princes de la mer descendent de leurs trônes, Ils ôtent leurs manteaux, Et quittent leurs vêtements brodés; Ils s'enveloppent de frayeur, et s'asseyent sur la terre; A chaque instant l'épouvante les saisit, Et ils sont consternés à cause de toi.

17 Ils prononcent sur toi une complainte, et te disent: Eh quoi! tu es détruite, Toi que peuplaient ceux qui parcourent les mers, Ville célèbre, qui étais puissante sur la mer! Elle est détruite avec ses habitants, Qui inspiraient la terreur à tous ceux d'alentour!

18 Maintenant les îles tremblent au jour de ta chute, les îles de la mer sont épouvantées de ta fin.

19 Car ainsi parle le Seigneur, l'Eternel: Quand je ferai de toi une ville déserte, Comme les villes qui n'ont point d'habitants, Quand je ferai monter contre toi l'abîme, Et que les grandes eaux te couvriront,

20 Je te précipiterai avec ceux qui sont descendus dans la fosse, Vers le peuple d'autrefois, Je te placerai dans les profondeurs de la terre, Dans les solitudes éternelles, Près de ceux qui sont descendus dans la fosse, Afin que tu ne sois plus habitée; Et je réserverai la gloire pour le pays des vivants.

21 Je te réduirai au néant, et tu ne seras plus; On te cherchera, et l'on ne te trouvera plus jamais, Dit le Seigneur, l'Eternel.

58. The state of consummation of the Israelitish Church is described in both the historical parts of the Word, and its prophetic parts: in the prophetic, by the atrocious deeds of the kings, first of those of the Israelites, and afterwards of those of the Jews, by whom and under whom the land is said to have been profaned. But it is needless to recite them, because they are well known; only those passages from the prophetic parts shall be adduced in which the consummation and devastation of that Church are treated of. In these passages by "earth" and "land," "Zion," "Jerusalem," "cities," "mountains," "hills," "valleys," and "rivers," similar things are signified as above (n. 55). The following are from the prophetic parts of the Word:

[2] I saw the earth, and behold it was empty and void; and towards the heavens, and their light was not.... I saw, when, behold, Carmel 1 was a desert, and all the cities were desolated at the presence of Jehovah.... For thus hath Jehovah said, The whole land shall be wasteness, yet will I not make a consummation. For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be blackened.

Thou, therefore, that art vastated, what wilt thou do? (Jer. 4:23-31; 5:10, 18).

The lion hath come up from his thicket, and the destroyer of nations... hath gone forth from his place, to reduce the land to a waste.... In that day... the heart of the king shall perish, and the heart of the princes; and the priests shall be astonished (Jer. 4:7, 9).

In that day, every place where there were a thousand vines shall be... for thorns and briars,... because all the land shall be thorns and briars (Isa. 7:23-24).

A voice of the cry of the shepherds and... of the powerful ones of the flock, for Jehovah layeth waste their pastures: whence the sheepfolds of peace were devastated. Jehovah hath forsaken His tabernacle, for their land was reduced to a desolation (Jer. 25:36-38).

This house shall be like Shiloh, and Jerusalem shall be a devastation (Jer. 26:9; 27:17).

Jerusalem, and all the cities of Judah, shall be a desolation and a devastation in this day, because of the wickedness of your works; . . . your land is become a desolation, an astonishment and a curse (Jer. 44:2, 6, 22).

I will give the land to devastation, because they have committed transgression (Ezek. 15:8).

They shall be devastated in the midst of the devastated lands, and her cities in the midst of the desolated cities.... Then I will make the rivers drought,... the land into the hand of the evil, and I will vastate the land and the fulness thereof (Ezek. 30:7, 12).

When I shall extinguish thee, I will cover the heavens, and will make the stars thereof black. I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine;... and I will set darkness upon the land... when I shall bring on thy breaking up (Ezek. 32:7-9);

in like manner as the Lord foretold concerning the consummation of the present Christian Church (Matt. 24:29).

[3] I will give Mount Seir to wasteness and to devastation.... I will make thee the wastes of eternity... (Ezek. 35:3-4, 7, 9, 12, 14-15).

In that day they shall bring up a proverb against you... and say, In vastating we are vastated (Micah 2:4).

Fear and the pit have taken hold of us, devastation and breaking up (Lam. 3:47).

The mountain of Zion is vastated (Lam. 5:18).

Thine iniquity is consummated, O daughter of Zion (Lam. 4:22).

Woe to the sinful nation, heavy with iniquity;... they have provoked the Holy One of Israel.... From the sole of the foot even to the head, there is no soundness;... your land is a solitude.... The daughter of Zion is left as a tent in a vineyard, as a besieged city (Isa. 1:4-8, and following verses).

What will ye do in the day of visitation and devastation? Consummation is finished, justice is overwhelmed; for the Lord Jehovih is making a consummation and decision in the whole land (Isa. 10:3, etc., Isa. 10:22-23).

I have heard a consummation and decision from the Lord Jehovih of hosts in the whole land (Isa. 28:22).

The prophet fell upon his face, and said, Lord Jehovih! Thou art making a consummation with the remnants of Israel (Ezek. 11:13).

My sanctuary was profaned, and the land of Israel was devastated (Ezek. 25:3).

Were even Noah, Daniel and Job in the midst of it,... they only shall be delivered, but the land shall become a desolation (Ezek. 14:14, 16).

[4] The completion of the consummation of the Israelitish and Jewish Church was accomplished when the Lord our Saviour, after receiving the sponge of vinegar, cried out upon the cross,

It is consummated (John 19:29-30);

for it is said in David:

They gave gall for My meat, and in My thirst they gave Me vinegar to drink:... let their habitation be devastated (Psalm 69:21, 25).

And in another place:

Without cause have they hid for Me the pit of the net; without cause have they digged for My soul. Let devastation come upon him before he is aware;... let him fall into devastation. Rescue My soul from their devastators, and My only one,-that is, the Church-from the lions' whelps (Psalm 35:7-8, 17).

I will make Jerusalem heaps, a habitation of dragons; I will reduce the cities of Judah to a waste;... behold, I am feeding them, even this people, with wormwood, and I will give them waters of gall to drink (Jer. 9:11-15).

Full consummation, after this, is described in Hosea thus:

The sons of Israel shall sit many days: no king, no prince, no sacrifice, no image, no ephod, and no teraphim (Hosea 3:4).

Such is their state at the present day. There is no need to adduce more passages. The passages in which the vastation, desolation and consummation of this Church are further mentioned, shall be only named: as, for example, Isa. 9:13-21; 22:4-14: Jer. 7:31-34; 25:33; 47:4: Ezek. 13:14-15; 14:8, 15; 19:7; 25:12-13; 26:2; 29:9-10, 12; 32:12, 15: Joel 1:15-20; 2:3; 3:19: Nahum 1:8-9: Zeph. 1:15; 2:9: Lam. 1:16: Psalm 73:17-19; 74:3.

The devastated are also called "thrust through" 2 (Ezek. 11:6-7; 21:30, 34; 26:6; 28:8, 23; 31:17-18; 32:20-24, 28-32; 35:8: Zeph. 2:12: Lam. 4:9: Psalm 69:27: and in other places). They are said to be "thrust through" because a "sword," by which this is done, signifies falsity destroying truth.

脚注:

1. See R.V. margin.

2. In most of these passages our ordinary Bibles have "slain"; but Young's Literal Translation of the Bible has "pierced," which, of course, is the same as "thrust through."
