Ezekiel 12:23

Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the effect of every vision.

KJV

Ideo dic ad eos : Hæc dicit Dominus Deus : Quiescere faciam proverbium istud, neque vulgo dicetur ultra in Israël : et loquere ad eos quod appropinquaverint dies, et sermo omnis visionis.

Vulgate

διὰ τοῦτο εἰπὸν πρὸς αὐτούς Τάδε λέγει Κύριος Καὶ ἀποστρέψω τὴν παραβολὴν ταύτην, καὶ οὐκέτι μὴ εἴπωσιν τὴν παραβολὴν ταύτην οἶκος τοῦ Ἰσραήλ· ὅτι λαλήσεις πρὸς αὐτούς Ἠγγίκασιν αἱ ἡμέραι καὶ λόγος πάσης ὁράσεως.

LXX

Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the fulfilment of every vision.
