Joel 3
1 For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring back the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
quia ecce in diebus illis et in tempore illo cum convertero captivitatem Iuda et Hierusalem
2 I will gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat; and I will execute judgment upon them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations: and they have parted my land,
congregabo omnes gentes et deducam eas in valle Iosaphat et disceptabo cum eis ibi super populo meo et hereditate mea Israhel quos disperserunt in nationibus et terram meam diviserunt
3 and have cast lots for my people, and have given a boy for a harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they may drink.
et super populum meum miserunt sortem et posuerunt puerum in prostibulum et puellam vendiderunt pro vino ut biberent
4 Yea, and what are ye to me, O Tyre, and Sidon, and all the regions of Philistia? will ye render me a recompense? and if ye recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompense upon your own head.
verum quid vobis et mihi Tyrus et Sidon et omnis terminus Palestinorum numquid ultionem vos redditis mihi et si ulciscimini vos contra me cito velociter reddam vicissitudinem vobis super caput vestrum
5 Forasmuch as ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly precious things,
argentum enim meum et aurum tulistis et desiderabilia mea et pulcherrima intulistis in delubra vestra
6 and have sold the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem unto the sons of the Grecians, that ye may remove them far from their border;
et filios Iuda et filios Hierusalem vendidistis filiis Graecorum ut longe faceretis eos de finibus suis
7 behold, I will stir them up out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompense upon your own head;
ecce ego suscitabo eos de loco in quo vendidistis eos et convertam retributionem vestram in caput vestrum
8 and I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the men of Sheba, to a nation far off: for Jehovah hath spoken it.
et vendam filios vestros et filias vestras in manibus filiorum Iuda et venundabunt eos Sabeis genti longinquae quia Dominus locutus est
9 Proclaim ye this among the nations; prepare war; stir up the mighty men; let all the men of war draw near, let them come up.
clamate hoc in gentibus sanctificate bellum suscitate robustos accedant ascendant omnes viri bellatores
10 Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning-hooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.
concidite aratra vestra in gladios et ligones vestros in lanceas infirmus dicat quia fortis ego sum
11 Haste ye, and come, all ye nations round about, and gather yourselves together: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O Jehovah.
erumpite et venite omnes gentes de circuitu et congregamini ibi occumbere faciet Dominus robustos tuos
12 Let the nations bestir themselves, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat; for there will I sit to judge all the nations round about.
consurgant et ascendant gentes in vallem Iosaphat quia ibi sedebo ut iudicem omnes gentes in circuitu
13 Put ye in the sickle; for the harvest is ripe: come, tread ye; for the winepress is full, the vats overflow; for their wickedness is great.
mittite falces quoniam maturavit messis venite et descendite quia plenum est torcular exuberant torcularia quia multiplicata est malitia eorum
14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! for the day of Jehovah is near in the valley of decision.
populi populi in valle concisionis quia iuxta est dies Domini in valle concisionis
15 The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining.
sol et luna obtenebricata sunt et stellae retraxerunt splendorem suum
16 And Jehovah will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but Jehovah will be a refuge unto his people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel.
et Dominus de Sion rugiet et de Hierusalem dabit vocem suam et movebuntur caeli et terra et Dominus spes populi sui et fortitudo filiorum Israhel
17 So shall ye know that I am Jehovah your God, dwelling in Zion my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more.
et scietis quia ego Dominus Deus vester habitans in Sion in monte sancto meo et erit Hierusalem sancta et alieni non transibunt per eam amplius
18 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the brooks of Judah shall flow with waters; and a fountain shall come forth from the house of Jehovah, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
et erit in die illa stillabunt montes dulcedinem et colles fluent lacte et per omnes rivos Iuda ibunt aquae et fons de domo Domini egredietur et inrigabit torrentem Spinarum
19 Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence done to the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
Aegyptus in desolatione erit et Idumea in desertum perditionis pro eo quod inique egerint in filios Iuda et effuderint sanguinem innocentem in terra sua
20 But Judah shall abide for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
et Iudaea in aeternum habitabitur et Hierusalem in generatione et generationem
21 And I will cleanse their blood, that I have not cleansed: for Jehovah dwelleth in Zion.
et mundabo sanguinem eorum quem non mundaveram et Dominus commorabitur in Sion
