1 The word of the Lord, that was maad to Jeremye, of al the puple of Juda, in the fourthe yeer of Joachym, the sone of Josie, the king of Juda, aftir that Jeconye was translatid in to Babiloyne; thilke is the firste yeer of Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne; which word Jeremy,
Verbum, quod factum est ad Ieremiam de omni populo Iuda in anno quarto Ioakim filii Iosiae regis Iuda, (ipse est annus primus Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis.)
2 the prophete, spak to al the puple of Juda, and to alle the dwelleris of Jerusalem, and seide,
Quod locutus est Ieremias propheta ad omnem populum Iuda, et ad universos habitatores Ierusalem, dicens:
3 Fro the threttenthe yeer of the rewme of Josie, the sone of Amon, the kyng of Juda, `til to this dai, this is the three and twentithe yeer, the word of the Lord was maad to me; and Y spak to you, and Y roos bi niyt and spak, and ye herden not.
A tertiodecimo anno Iosiae filii Amon regis Iuda usque ad diem hanc; iste tertius et vigesimus annus, factum est verbum Domini ad me, et locutus sum ad vos de nocte consurgens, et loquens, et non audistis.
4 And the Lord sente to you alle hise seruauntis profetis, and roos ful eerli, and sente, and ye herden not, nether ye bowiden youre eeris, for to here;
Et misit Dominus ad vos omnes servos suos prophetas, consurgens diluculo, mittensque et non audistis, neque inclinastis aures vestras ut audiretis
5 whanne he seide, Turne ye ayen, ech man fro his yuel weie, and fro youre worste thouytis, and ye schulen dwelle in the lond whiche the Lord yaf to you, and to youre fadris, fro the world and til in to the world.
cum diceret: Revertimini unusquisque a via sua mala, et a pessimis cogitationibus vestris: et habitabitis in terra, quam dedit Dominus vobis, et patribus vestris a saeculo et usque in saeculum.
6 And nyle ye go aftir alien goddis, that ye serue hem, and worschipe hem, nether terre ye me to wrathfulnesse, in the werkis of youre hondis, and Y schal not turmente you.
Et nolite ire post deos alienos ut serviatis eis, adoretisque eos: neque me ad iracundiam provocetis in operibus manuum vestrarum, et non affligam vos.
7 And ye herden not me, seith the Lord, that ye terreden me to wrathfulnesse in the werkis of youre hondis, in to youre yuel.
Et non audistis me, dicit Dominus, ut me ad iracundiam provocaretis in operibus manuum vestrarum in malum vestrum.
8 Therfor the Lord of oostis seith these thingis, For that that ye herden not my wordis, lo!
Propterea haec dicit Dominus exercituum: Pro eo quod non audistis verba mea:
9 Y schal sende, and take alle the kynredis of the north, seith the Lord, and Nabugodonosor, my seruaunt, the kyng of Babiloyne; and Y schal bringe hem on this lond, and on the dwelleris therof, and on alle naciouns, that ben in the cumpas therof; and Y schal sle hem, and Y schal sette hem in to wondryng, and in to hissyng, and in to euerlastynge wildirnessis.
ecce ego mittam, et assumam universas cognationes Aquilonis, ait Dominus, et Nabuchodonosor regem Babylonis servum meum: et adducam eos super terram istam, et super habitatores eius, et super omnes nationes, quae in circuitu illius sunt: et interficiam eos, et ponam eos in stuporem et in sibilum, et in solitudines sempiternas.
10 And Y schal leese of hem the vois of ioye, and the vois of gladnesse, the vois of spouse, and the vois of spousesse, the vois of queerne, and the liyt of the lanterne.
Perdamque ex eis vocem gaudii et vocem laetitiae, vocem sponsi, et vocem sponsae, vocem molae, et lumen lucernae.
11 And al the lond therof schal be in to wildirnesse, and in to wondring; and alle these folkis schulen serue the king of Babiloyne seuenti yeer.
Et erit universa terra haec in solitudinem, et in stuporem: et servient omnes gentes istae regi Babylonis septuaginta annis.
12 And whanne seuenti yeer ben fillid, Y schal visite on the kyng of Babiloyne, and on that folc the wickidnesse of hem, seith the Lord, and on the lond of Caldeis, and Y schal set it in to euerlastynge wildirnesses.
Cumque impleti fuerint septuaginta anni, visitabo super regem Babylonis, et super gentem illam, dicit Dominus, iniquitatem eorum, et super terram Chaldaeorum: et ponam illam in solitudines sempiternas.
13 And Y schal brynge on that lond alle my wordis whiche Y spak ayens it, al thing that is writun in this book; what euer thingis Jeremye profeside ayens alle folkis;
Et adducam super terram illam, omnia verba mea, quae locutus sum contra eam, omne quod scriptum est in libro isto, quaecumque prophetavit Ieremias adversum omnes gentes:
14 for thei serueden to hem, whanne thei weren many folkis, and grete kingis; and Y schal yelde to hem aftir the werkis of hem, and aftir the dedis of her hondis.
Quia servierunt eis cum essent gentes multae, et reges magni: et reddam eis secundum opera eorum, et secundum facta manuum suarum.
15 For the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith thus, Take thou the cuppe of wyn of this woodnesse fro myn hond, and thou schal birle therof to alle hethene men, to whiche Y schal sende thee.
Quia sic dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel: Sume calicem vini furoris huius de manu mea: et propinabis de illo cunctis gentibus, ad quas ego mittam te.
16 And thei schulen drynke, and schulen be disturblid, and schulen be woode of the face of swerd, which Y schal sende among hem.
Et bibent, et turbabuntur, et insanient a facie gladii, quem ego mittam inter eos.
17 And Y took the cuppe fro the hond of the Lord, and Y birlide to alle folkis, to whiche the Lord sente me;
Et accepi calicem de manu Domini, et propinavi cunctis gentibus, ad quas misit me Dominus:
18 to Jerusalem, and to alle the citees of Juda, and to the kyngis therof, and to the princes therof; that Y schulde yyue hem in to wildirnesse, and in to wondring, and in to hissyng, and in to cursing, as this dai is; to Farao,
Ierusalem, et civitatibus Iuda, et regibus eius, et principibus eius: ut darem eos in solitudinem, et in stuporem, et in sibilum, et in maledictionem, sicut est dies ista:
19 the king of Egipt, and to hise seruauntis, and to hise princes, and to al hise puple;
Pharaoni regi Aegypti, et servis eius, et principibus eius, et omni populo eius,
20 and to alle men generali, to alle the kyngis of the lond Ansitidis, and to alle the kyngis of the lond of Filistiym, and to Ascalon, and to Gaza, and to Acoron, and to the residues of Azotus;
et universis generaliter: cunctis regibus terrae Ausitidis, et cunctis regibus terrae Philisthiim, et Ascalonis, et Gazae, et Accaron, et reliquiis Azoti,
21 to Idumee, and to Moab, and to the sones of Amon;
et Idumaeae, et Moab, et filiis Ammon:
22 and to alle the kyngis of Tirus, and to alle the kingis of Sidon, and to the kingis of the lond of ilis that ben biyendis the see;
Et cunctis regibus Tyri, et universis regibus Sidonis: et regibus terrae insularum, qui sunt trans mare.
23 and to Dedan, and Theman, and Buz, and to alle men that ben clippid on the long heer;
Et Dedan, et Thema, et Buz, et universis qui attonsi sunt in comam.
24 and to alle the kingis of Arabie, and to alle the kingis of the west, that dwellen in desert;
Et cunctis regibus Arabiae, et cunctis regibus Occidentis, qui habitant in deserto.
25 and to alle the kingis of Zambri, and to alle the kingis of Elam, and to alle the kyngis of Medeis; and to alle the kingis of the north,
Et cunctis regibus Zambri, et cunctis regibus Elam, et cunctis regibus Medorum:
26 of niy and of fer, to ech man ayens his brothir; and to alle the rewmes of erthe, that ben on the face therof; and kyng Sesac schal drynke after hem.
cunctis quoque regibus Aquilonis de prope et de longe, unicuique contra fratrem suum: et omnibus regnis terrae, quae super faciem eius sunt: et rex Sesach bibet post eos.
27 And thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, Drynke ye, and be ye drunkun, and spue ye, and falle ye doun, and nyle ye rise fro the face of swerd which Y schal sende among you.
et dices ad eos: Haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel: Bibite, et inebriamini, et vomite: et cadite, neque surgatis a facie gladii, quem ego mittam inter vos.
28 And whanne thei nylen take the cuppe fro thin hond, that thei drynke, thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Ye drynkynge schulen drynke;
Cumque noluerint accipere calicem de manu tua ut bibant, dices ad eos: Haec dicit Dominus exercituum: Bibentes bibetis:
29 for lo! in the citee in which my name is clepid to help, Y bigynne to turmente, and schulen ye as innocentis be with out peyne? ye schulen not be with out peyne, for Y clepe swerd on alle the dwelleris of erthe, seith the Lord of oostis.
quia ecce in civitate, in qua invocatum est nomen meum, ego incipiam affligere, et vos quasi innocentes et immunes eritis? non eritis immunes: gladium enim ego voco super omnes habitatores terrae, dicit Dominus exercituum.
30 And thou schalt profesie to hem alle these wordis, and thou schalt seie to hem, The Lord schal rore fro an hiy, and fro his hooli dwellyng place he schal yyue his vois; he rorynge schal rore on his fairnesse; a myry song, as of men tredynge in pressouris, schal be sungun ayens alle dwelleris of erthe.
Et tu prophetabis ad eos omnia verba haec, et dices ad illos: Dominus de excelso rugiet, et de habitaculo sancto suo dabit vocem suam: rugiens rugiet super decorem suum: celeuma quasi calcantium concinetur adversus omnes habitatores terrae.
31 Sown is comun til to the laste partis of erthe, for whi doom is to the Lord with folkis, he is demed with ech fleisch; the Lord seith, Y haue youe wickid men to the swerd.
Pervenit sonitus usque ad extrema terrae: quia iudicium Domino cum gentibus: iudicatur ipse cum omni carne, impios tradidi gladio, dicit Dominus.
32 The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Lo! turment schal go out fro folk in to folk, and a greet whirlwynd schal go out fro the endis of erthe.
Haec dicit Dominus exercituum: Ecce afflictio egredietur de gente in gentem: et turbo magnus egredietur a summitatibus terrae.
33 And the slayn men of the Lord schulen be in that dai fro the ende of the erthe `til to the ende therof; thei schulen not be biweilid, nether schulen be gaderid togidere, nether schulen be biried; thei schulen ligge in to a dunghil on the face of erthe.
Et erunt interfecti Domini in die illa a summo terrae usque ad summum eius: non plangentur, et non colligentur, neque sepelientur: in sterquilinium super faciem terrae iacebunt.
34 Yelle, ye scheepherdis, and crye, and, ye princypals of the floc, bispreynge you with aische; for youre daies ben fillid, that ye be slayn, and youre scateryngis ben fillid, and ye schulen falle as precious vessels.
Ululate pastores, et clamate: et aspergite vos cinere optimates gregis: quia completi sunt dies vestri ut interficiamini: et dissipationes vestrae, et cadetis quasi vasa pretiosa.
35 And fleyng schal perische fro scheepherdis, and sauyng schal perische fro the principals of the floc.
Et peribit fuga a pastoribus, et salvatio ab optimatibus gregis.
36 The vois of the crye of scheepherdis, and the yellyng of the principals of the floc, for the Lord hath wastid the lesewis of hem.
Vox clamoris pastorum, et ululatus optimatum gregis: quia vastavit Dominus pascua eorum.
37 And the feeldis of pees weren stille, for the face of wraththe of the strong veniaunce of the Lord.
Et conticuerunt arva pacis a facie irae furoris Domini.
38 He as a lion hath forsake his tabernacle, for the lond of hem is maad in to desolacioun, of the face of wraththe of the culuer, and of the face of wraththe of the strong veniaunce of the Lord.
Dereliquit quasi leo umbraculum suum, quia facta est terra eorum in desolationem a facie irae columbae, et a facie irae furoris Domini.
