Voici le jour, voici il vient, le matin parat, la verge a fleuri, la fiert a jet des boutons.
Voici le jour! voici, il arrive! ton tour est venu, la verge a fleuri, l'orgueil a bourgeonn!
Voici le jour! voici, il vient! Le tour arrive! La verge fleurit! L'orgueil s'panouit!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Behold the day, behold, it is come,.... That is, the day of trouble and distress, said to be near, Ezekiel 7:3;
the morning is gone forth; Ezekiel 7:3- :;
the rod hath blossomed, pride hath budded; both these phrases may be understood of Nebuchadnezzar; he was the rod, with which the Lord smote his people, as the Assyrian monarch is called the rod of his anger,
Isaiah 10:5: and was a very proud prince, and had budded and blossomed, and had brought forth much bad fruit of that kind; see Daniel 3:15; or these may be separately considered; the rod may be interpreted of Nebuchadnezzar, which had been growing up, and preparing for the chastisement of the people of the Jews, and now was just ready to be made use of; and "pride" may respect the sin of that people, which was the cause of their being smitten with this rod, as the following words seem to indicate. The Targum is,
"a ruler hath budded, a wicked one hath appeared.''
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The morning - Rather, “The conclusion:” a whole series (literally circle) of events is being brought to a close. Others render it: Fate.
The day of trouble ... - Or, The day is near; a tumult Zechariah 14:13, and not the echo of (or, shouting on) the mountains. The contrast is between the wild tumult of war and the joyous shouts of such as keep holiday.
Ezekiel 7:10
Rod - Used here for tribe Exodus 31:2. The people of Judah have blossomed into proud luxuriance. In Ezekiel 7:11 it means the rod to punish wickedness. The meaning of the passage is obscure, owing to the brief and enigmatic form of the utterance. We may adopt the following explanation. The Jews had ever exulted in their national privileges - everything great and noble was to be from them and from theirs; but now Yahweh raises up the rod of the oppressor to confound and punish the rod of His people. The furious Chaldaean has become an instrument of God’s wrath, endued with power emanating not from the Jews or from the multitude of the Jews, or from any of their children or people; nay, the destruction shall be so complete that none shall be left to make lamentation over them.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 7:10. Behold the day — The same words are repeated, sometimes varied, and pressed on the attention with new figures and new circumstances, in order to alarm this infatuated people. Look at the day! It is come!
The morning is gone forth — It will wait no longer. The rod that is to chastise you hath blossomed; it is quite ready.
Pride hath budded. — Your insolence, obstinacy, and daring opposition to God have brought forth their proper fruits.
