Jeremiah 48
1 Of Moab. Thus saith the LORD 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 Israel: 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 Hesebon: cogitaverunt malum. Venite, et disperdamus eam de gente. ergo silens conticesces, sequeturque te gladius.
3 The sound of a cry from Horonaim, spoiling 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: annunciate clamorem parvulis eius.
5 For by the ascent of Luhith with continual weeping shall they go up; for in the going down of Horonaim they have heard the distress of the cry of destruction.
Per ascensum enim Luith 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 myricae 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 spoiler shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape; the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed; as the LORD hath spoken.
Et veniet praedo ad omnem urbem, et urbs nulla salvabitur: et peribunt valles, 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 florens egredietur: et civitates eius desertae erunt, et inhabitabiles.
10 Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD 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 adolescentia sua, et requievit in foecibus suis: nec transfusus est de vase in vas, et in transmigrationem non abiit: idcirco permansit gustus eius in eo, et odor eius non est immutatus.
12 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, 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 lagunculas eorum collident.
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 Israel 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 praeliandum?
15 Moab is laid waste, and they are gone up into her cities; and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.
Vastata est Moab, et civitates illius succenderunt: et electi iuvenes eius descenderunt in occisionem: ait rex, Dominus exercituum nomen eius.
16 The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast.
Prope est interitus Moab ut veniat: et malum eius velociter accurret 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 spoiler of Moab is come up against thee, he hath destroyed thy strong holds.
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 espy: ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth; say, What hath been done?
In via sta, et prospice habitatio Aroer: interroga fugientem: et ei, qui evasit, dic: Quid accidit?
20 Moab is put to shame; for it is broken down: howl and cry; tell ye it in Arnon, that Moab is laid waste.
Confusus est Moab, quoniam victus est: ululate, et clamate, annunciate 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 Iasa, et super Mephaath,
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 the LORD.
Abscissum est cornu Moab, et brachium eius contritum est, ait Dominus.
26 Make ye him drunken; for he magnified himself against the LORD: and Moab shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.
Inebriate eum, quoniam contra Dominum erectus est: et allidet 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 Israel: quasi inter fures reperisses 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 in the sides of the holes mouth.
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 eius.
30 I know his wrath, saith the LORD, that it is nought; his boastings have wrought nothing.
Ego scio, ait Dominus, iactantiam eius: eo quod non sit iuxta eam virtus eius, nec iuxta quod poterat conata sit facere.
31 Therefore will I howl for Moab; yea, I will cry out for all Moab: for the men of Kir-heres shall they mourn.
Ideo super Moab eiulabo, 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 spoiler is fallen.
De planctu Iazer plorabo tibi vinea Sabama: propagines tuae transierunt mare, usque ad mare Iazer pervenerunt: super messem tuam, et vindemiam tuam praedo irruit.
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 Hesebon usque Eleale, et Iasa, dederunt vocem suam: a Segor usque ad Oronaim vitulam conternante: aquae quoque Nemrim pessimae erunt.
35 Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, saith the LORD, 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 mine heart soundeth for Moab like pipes, and mine 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 tibia aeris 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 colligatio, 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 is no pleasure, saith the LORD.
Super omnia tecta Moab, et in plateis eius omnis planctus: quoniam contrivi Moab sicut vas inutile, ait Dominus.
39 How is it broken down! [how] do they howl! how hath Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab become a derision and a dismaying 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 the LORD: Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread out his wings against Moab.
Haec dicit Dominus: Ecce quasi aquila volabit, et extendet alas suas ad Moab.
41 Kerioth is taken, and the strong holds are surprised, 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 comprehensae 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 the LORD.
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 the LORD.
Pavor, et fovea, et laqueus super te o habitator Moab, dicit 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 her, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.
Qui fugerit a facie pavoris, cadet in foveam: et qui conscenderit de fovea, capietur laqueo: adducam enim super Moab annum visitationis eorum, ait 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 Hesebon steterunt de laqueo fugientes: quia ignis egressus est de Hesebon, et flamma de medio Sion, 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, periisti popule Chamos: quia comprehensi sunt filii tui, et filiae tuae in captivitatem.
47 Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab in the latter days, saith the LORD. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
Et convertam captivitatem Moab in novissimis diebus, ait Dominus. Hucusque iudicia Moab.
