Jeremiah 48
1 Of Moab. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Woe unto Nebo! for it is laid waste; Kiriathaim is put to shame, it is taken; Misgab is put to shame and broken down.
ad Moab haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel vae super Nabo quoniam vastata est et confusa capta est Cariathaim confusa est fortis et tremuit
2 The praise of Moab is no more; in Heshbon they have devised evil against her: Come, and let us cut her off from being a nation. Thou also, O Madmen, shalt be brought to silence; the sword shall pursue thee.
non est ultra exultatio in Moab contra Esebon cogitaverunt malum venite et disperdamus eam de gente ergo silens conticesces sequeturque te gladius
3 The sound of a cry from Horonaim, desolation and great destruction!
vox clamoris de Oronaim vastitas et contritio magna
4 Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.
contrita est Moab adnuntiate clamorem parvulis eius
5 For by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping shall they go up; for at the descent of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
per ascensum enim Luaith plorans ascendet in fletu quoniam in descensu Oronaim hostes ululatum contritionis audierunt
6 Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.
fugite salvate animas vestras et eritis quasi myrice in deserto
7 For, because thou hast trusted in thy works and in thy treasures, thou also shalt be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
pro eo enim quod habuisti fiduciam in munitionibus tuis et in thesauris tuis tu quoque capieris et ibit Chamos in transmigrationem sacerdotes eius et principes eius simul
8 And the destroyer shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed; as Jehovah hath spoken.
et veniet praedo ad omnem urbem et urbs nulla salvabitur et peribit vallis et dissipabuntur campestria quoniam dixit Dominus
9 Give wings unto Moab, that she may fly and get her away: and her cities shall become a desolation, without any to dwell therein.
date florem Moab quia floriens egredietur et civitates eius desertae erunt et inhabitabiles
10 Cursed be he that doeth the work of Jehovah negligently; and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood.
maledictus qui facit opus Domini fraudulenter et maledictus qui prohibet gladium suum a sanguine
11 Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither hath he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remaineth in him, and his scent is not changed.
fertilis fuit Moab ab adulescentia sua et requievit in fecibus suis nec transfusus est de vase in vas et in transmigrationem non abiit idcirco permansit gustus eius in eo et odor eius non est inmutatus
12 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will send unto him them that pour off, and they shall pour him off; and they shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles in pieces.
propterea ecce dies veniunt dicit Dominus et mittam ei ordinatores et stratores laguncularum et sternent eum et vasa eius exhaurient et lagoenas eorum conlident
13 And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Beth-el their confidence.
et confundetur Moab a Chamos sicut confusa est domus Israhel a Bethel in qua habebat fiduciam
14 How say ye, We are mighty men, and valiant men for the war?
quomodo dicitis fortes sumus et viri robusti ad proeliandum
15 Moab is laid waste, and they are gone up into his cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is Jehovah of hosts.
vastata est Moab et civitates illius ascenderunt et electi iuvenes eius descenderunt in occisionem ait Rex Dominus exercituum nomen ei
16 The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast.
prope est interitus Moab ut veniat et malum eius velociter adcurret nimis
17 All ye that are round about him, bemoan him, and all ye that know his name; say, How is the strong staff broken, the beautiful rod!
consolamini eum omnes qui estis in circuitu eius et universi qui scitis nomen eius dicite quomodo confracta est virga fortis baculus gloriosus
18 O thou daughter that dwellest in Dibon, come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst; for the destroyer of Moab is come up against thee, he hath destroyed thy strongholds.
descende de gloria et sede in siti habitatio filiae Dibon quoniam vastator Moab ascendet ad te dissipabit munitiones tuas
19 O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and watch: ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth; say, What hath been done?
in via sta et prospice habitatio Aroer interroga fugientem et eum qui evasit dic quid accidit
20 Moab is put to shame; for it is broken down: wail and cry; tell ye it by the Arnon, that Moab is laid waste.
confusus est Moab quoniam victus est ululate et clamate adnuntiate in Arnon quoniam vastata est Moab
21 And judgment is come upon the plain country, upon Holon, and upon Jahzah, and upon Mephaath,
et iudicium venit ad terram campestrem super Helon et super Iaesa et super Mefath
22 and upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Beth-diblathaim,
et super Dibon et super Nabo et super domum Deblathaim
23 and upon Kiriathaim, and upon Beth-gamul, and upon Beth-meon,
et super Cariathaim et super Bethgamul et super Bethmaon
24 and upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.
et super Carioth et super Bosra et super omnes civitates terrae Moab quae longe et quae prope sunt
25 The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, saith Jehovah.
abscisum est cornu Moab et brachium eius contritum est ait Dominus
26 Make ye him drunken; for he magnified himself against Jehovah: and Moab shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
inebriate eum quoniam contra Dominum erectus est et adlidet manum Moab in vomitu suo et erit in derisum etiam ipse
27 For was not Israel a derision unto thee? was he found among thieves? for as often as thou speakest of him, thou waggest the head.
fuit enim in derisum tibi Israhel quasi inter fures repperisses eum propter verba ergo tua quae adversum illum locutus es captivus duceris
28 O ye inhabitants of Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock; and be like the dove that maketh her nest over the mouth of the abyss.
relinquite civitates et habitate in petra habitatores Moab et estote quasi columba nidificans in summo ore foraminis
29 We have heard of the pride of Moab, [that] he is very proud; his loftiness, and his pride, and his arrogancy, and the haughtiness of his heart.
audivimus superbiam Moab superbus est valde sublimitatem eius et arrogantiam et superbiam et altitudinem cordis illius
30 I know his wrath, saith Jehovah, that it is nought; his boastings have wrought nothing.
ego scio ait Dominus iactantiam eius et quod non sit iuxta eam virtus eius nec iuxta quod poterat conata sit facere
31 Therefore will I wail for Moab; yea, I will cry out for all Moab: for the men of Kir-heres shall they mourn.
ideo super Moab heiulabo et ad Moab universam clamabo ad viros muri fictilis lamentantes
32 With more than the weeping of Jazer will I weep for thee, O vine of Sibmah: thy branches passed over the sea, they reached even to the sea of Jazer: upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage the destroyer is fallen.
de planctu Iazer plorabo tibi vinea Sobema propagines tuae transierunt mare usque ad mare Iazer pervenerunt super messem tuam et vindemiam tuam praedo inruit
33 And gladness and joy is taken away from the fruitful field and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to cease from the winepresses: none shall tread with shouting; the shouting shall be no shouting.
ablata est laetitia et exultatio de Carmelo et de terra Moab et vinum de torcularibus sustuli nequaquam calcator uvae solitum celeuma cantabit
34 From the cry of Heshbon even unto Elealeh, even unto Jahaz have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even unto Horonaim, to Eglath-shelishiyah: for the waters of Nimrim also shall become desolate.
de clamore Esebon usque Eleale et Iaesa dederunt vocem suam a Segor usque ad Oronaim vitula conternante aquae quoque Namrim pessimae erunt
35 Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, saith Jehovah, him that offereth in the high place, and him that burneth incense to his gods.
et auferam de Moab ait Dominus offerentem in excelsis et sacrificantem diis eius
36 Therefore my heart soundeth for Moab like pipes, and my heart soundeth like pipes for the men of Kir-heres: therefore the abundance that he hath gotten is perished.
propterea cor meum ad Moab quasi tibiae resonabit et cor meum ad viros muri fictilis dabit sonitum tibiarum quia plus fecit quam potuit idcirco perierunt
37 For every head is bald, and every beard clipped: upon all the hands are cuttings, and upon the loins sackcloth.
omne enim caput calvitium et omnis barba rasa erit in cunctis manibus conligatio et super omne dorsum cilicium
38 On all the housetops of Moab and in the streets thereof there is lamentation every where; for I have broken Moab like a vessel wherein none delighteth, saith Jehovah.
super omnia tecta Moab et in plateis eius omnis planctus quia contrivi Moab sicut vas inutile ait Dominus
39 How is it broken down! [how] do they wail! how hath Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab become a derision and a terror to all that are round about him.
quomodo victa est et ululaverunt quomodo deiecit cervicem Moab et confusus est eritque Moab in derisum et in exemplum omnibus in circuitu suo
40 For thus saith Jehovah: Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread out his wings against Moab.
haec dicit Dominus ecce quasi aquila evolabit et extendet alas suas ad Moab
41 Kerioth is taken, and the strongholds are seized, and the heart of the mighty men of Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
capta est Carioth et munitiones conprehensae sunt et erit cor fortium Moab in die illa sicut cor mulieris parturientis
42 And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against Jehovah.
et cessabit Moab esse populus quoniam contra Dominum gloriatus est
43 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith Jehovah.
pavor et fovea et laqueus super te o habitator Moab ait Dominus
44 He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon him, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith Jehovah.
qui fugit a facie pavoris cadet in foveam et qui conscenderit de fovea capietur laqueo adducam enim super Moab annum visitationis eorum dicit Dominus
45 They that fled stand without strength under the shadow of Heshbon; for a fire is gone forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and hath devoured the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.
in umbra Esebon steterunt de laqueo fugientes quia ignis egressus est de Esebon et flamma de medio Seon et devorabit partem Moab et verticem filiorum tumultus
46 Woe unto thee, O Moab! the people of Chemosh is undone; for thy sons are taken away captive, and thy daughters into captivity.
vae tibi Moab peristi popule Chamos quia conprehensi sunt filii tui et filiae tuae in captivitatem
47 Yet will I bring back the captivity of Moab in the latter days, saith Jehovah. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
et convertam captivitatem Moab in novissimis diebus ait Dominus hucusque iudicia Moab
