Jeremiah 16
1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying:
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
2 Thou dost not take to thee a wife, Nor hast thou sons and daughters in this place.
Non accipies uxorem, et non erunt tibi filii, et filiae in loco isto.
3 For thus said Jehovah, Of the sons and of the daughters who are born in this place, And of their mothers — those bearing them, And of their fathers — those begetting them in this land:
Quia haec dicit Dominus super filios et filias, qui generantur in loco isto, et super matres eorum, quae genuerunt eos: et super patres eorum, de quorum stirpe sunt nati in terra hac:
4 Of painful deaths they die, They are not lamented, nor are they buried, For dung on the face of the ground they are, And by sword and by famine are consumed, And their carcase hath been for food To the fowl of the heavens, And to the beast of the earth.
Mortibus aegrotationum morientur: non plangentur, et non sepelientur, in sterquilinium super faciem terrae erunt: et gladio, et fame consumentur: et erit cadaver eorum in escam volatilibus caeli, et bestiis terrae.
5 For thus said Jehovah: Do not enter the house of a mourning-feast, Nor go to lament nor bemoan for them, For I have removed My peace from this people, An affirmation of Jehovah, The kindness and the mercies.
Haec enim dicit Dominus: Ne ingrediaris domum convivii, neque vadas ad plangendum, neque consoleris eos: quia abstuli pacem meam a populo isto, dicit Dominus, misericordiam et miserationes.
6 And died have great and small in this land, They are not buried, and none lament for them, Nor doth any cut himself, nor become bald for them.
Et morientur grandes, et parvi in terra ista: non sepelientur neque plangentur, et non se incident, neque calvitium fiet pro eis.
7 Nor do they deal out to them for mourning, To comfort him concerning the dead, Nor cause them to drink a cup of consolations For his father and for his mother.
Et non frangent inter eos lugenti panem ad consolandum super mortuo: et non dabunt eis potum calicis ad consolandum super patre suo et matre.
8 A house of banqueting thou dost not enter, To sit with them, to eat and to drink,
Et domum convivii non ingrediaris, ut sedeas cum eis, et comedas et bibas:
9 For thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am causing to cease from this place, Before your eyes, and in your days, The voice of joy, and the voice of rejoicing, The voice of bridegroom and voice of bride.
quia haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel: Ecce ego auferam de loco isto in oculis vestris, et in diebus vestris vocem gaudii, et vocem laetitiae, vocem sponsi, et vocem sponsae.
10 And it hath come to pass when thou declarest to this people all these words, and they have said unto thee, 'For what hath Jehovah spoken against us all this great evil? yea, what [is] our iniquity, and what our sin, that we have sinned against Jehovah our God?'
Et cum annunciaveris populo huic omnia verba haec, et dixerint tibi: Quare locutus est Dominus super nos omne malum grande istud? quae iniquitas nostra? et quod peccatum nostrum, quod peccavimus Domino Deo nostro?
11 Then thou hast said unto them: Because that your fathers have forsaken Me, An affirmation of Jehovah, And go after other gods, and serve them, And they bow themselves to them, And Me have forsaken, and My law not kept,
Dices ad eos: Quia dereliquerunt me patres vestri, ait Dominus: et abierunt post deos alienos, et servierunt eis, et adoraverunt eos: et me dereliquerunt, et legem meam non custodierunt.
12 Ye also have done evil above your fathers, And lo, ye are walking each after the stubbornness of his evil heart, So as not to hearken unto Me.
Sed et vos peius operati estis, quam patres vestri: ecce enim ambulat unusquisque post pravitatem cordis sui mali, ut me non audiat.
13 And I have cast you from off this land, On to a land that ye have not known, Ye and your fathers, And ye have served there other gods by day and by night, Where I do not give to you grace.
Et eiiciam vos de terra hac in terram, quam ignoratis vos, et patres vestri: et servietis ibi diis alienis die ac nocte, qui non dabunt vobis requiem.
14 Therefore, lo, days are coming, An affirmation of Jehovah, And it is not said any more: 'Jehovah liveth, who brought up The sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt,'
Propterea ecce dies veniunt dicit Dominus, et non dicetur ultra: Vivit Dominus, qui eduxit filios Israel de Terra Aegypti,
15 But, 'Jehovah liveth, who brought up The sons of Israel out of the land of the north, And out of all the lands whither He drove them,' And I have brought them back to their land, That I gave to their fathers.
sed, Vivit Dominus, qui eduxit filios Israel de Terra Aquilonis, et de universis terris, ad quas eieci eos: et reducam eos in terram suam, quam dedi patribus eorum.
16 Lo, I am sending for many fishers, An affirmation of Jehovah, And they have fished them, And after this I send for many hunters, And they have hunted them from off every mountain, And from off every hill, and from holes of the rocks.
Ecce ego mittam piscatores multos dicit Dominus, et piscabuntur eos: et post haec mittam eis multos venatores, et venabuntur eos de omni monte, et de omni colle, et de cavernis petrarum.
17 For Mine eyes [are] upon all their ways, They have not been hidden from My face, Nor hath their iniquity been concealed from before Mine eyes.
Quia oculi mei super omnes vias eorum: non sunt absconditae a facie mea, et non fuit occultata iniquitas eorum ab oculis meis.
18 And I have recompensed a first — A second time — their iniquity and their sin, Because of their polluting My land, With the carcase of their detestable things, Yea, their abominable things have filled Mine inheritance.
Et reddam primum duplices iniquitates, et peccata eorum: quia contaminaverunt terram meam in morticinis idolorum suorum, et abominationibus suis impleverunt hereditatem meam.
19 O Jehovah, my strength, and my fortress, And my refuge in a day of adversity, Unto Thee nations do come from the ends of earth, And say, Only falsehood did our fathers inherit, Vanity, and none among them is profitable.
Domine fortitudo mea, et robur meum, et refugium meum in die tribulationis: ad te Gentes venient ab extremis terrae, et dicent: Vere mendacium possederunt patres nostri, vanitatem, quae eis non profuit.
20 Doth man make for himself gods, And they — no gods?
Numquid faciet sibi homo deos, et ipsi non sunt dii?
21 Therefore, lo, I am causing them to know at this time, I cause them to know My hand and My might, And they have known that My name [is] Jehovah!
Idcirco ecce ego ostendam eis per vicem hanc, ostendam eis manum meam, et virtutem meam: et scient quia nomen mihi Dominus.
