Ezechiel 21:7
And when they shall say to thee: Why mournest thou? thou shalt say: For that which I hear: because it cometh, and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be made feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and water shall run down every knee: behold it cometh, and it shall be done, saith the Lord God.

- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Cumque dixerint ad te : Quare tu gemis ? dices : Pro auditu : quia venit, et tabescet omne cor, et dissolventur universæ manus, et infirmabitur omnis spiritus, et per cuncta genua fluent aquæ : ecce venit, et fiet, ait Dominus Deus.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν εἴπωσιν πρὸς σέ Ἕνεκα τίνος σὺ στενάζεις; καὶ ἐρεῖς Ἐπὶ τῇ ἀγγελίᾳ διότι ἔρχεται, καὶ θραυσθήσεται πᾶσα καρδία, καὶ πᾶσαι χεῖρες παραλυθήσονται, καὶ ἐκψύξει πᾶσα σὰρξ καὶ πᾶν πνεῦμα, καὶ πάντες μηροὶ μολυνθήσονται ὑγρασίᾳ· ἰδοὺ ἔρχεται, λέγει κύριος Κύριος.
