et accesserunt omnes principes bellatorum et Iohanan filius Caree et Iezonias filius Osaiae et reliquum vulgus a parvo usque ad magnum
Then all the captains of the warriors, and Johanan the son of Caree, and Jezonias, the son of Osaias, and the rest of the people from the least to the greatest came near:
|
| 2 |
dixeruntque ad Hieremiam prophetam cadat oratio nostra in conspectu tuo et ora pro nobis ad Dominum Deum tuum pro universis reliquiis istis quia derelicti sumus pauci de pluribus sicut oculi tui nos intuentur
And they said to Jeremias the prophet: Let our supplication fall before thee: and pray thou for us to the Lord thy God for all this remnant, for we are left but a few of many, as thy eyes do behold us.
|
| 3 |
et adnuntiet nobis Dominus Deus tuus viam per quam pergamus et verbum quod faciamus
And let the Lord thy God shew us the way by which we may walk, and the thing that we must do.
|
| 4 |
dixit autem ad eos Hieremias propheta audivi ecce ego oro ad Dominum Deum vestrum secundum verba vestra omne verbum quodcumque responderit mihi indicabo vobis nec celabo vos quicquam
And Jeremias the prophet said to them: I have heard you: behold I will pray to the Lord your God according to your words: and whatsoever thing he shall answer me, I will declare it to you: and I will hide nothing from you.
|
| 5 |
et illi dixerunt ad Hieremiam sit Dominus inter nos testis veritatis et fidei si non iuxta omne verbum in quo miserit te Dominus Deus tuus ad nos sic faciemus
And they said to Jeremias: The Lord be witness between us of truth and faithfulness, if we do not according to every thing for which the Lord thy God shall send thee to us.
|
| 6 |
sive bonum est sive malum voci Domini Dei nostri ad quem mittimus te oboediemus ut bene sit nobis cum audierimus vocem Domini Dei nostri
Whether it be good or evil, we will obey the voice of the Lord our God, to whom we send thee: that it may be well with us when we shall hearken to the voice of the Lord our God.
|
| 7 |
cum autem conpleti essent decem dies factum est verbum Domini ad Hieremiam
Now after ten days, the word of the Lord came to Jeremias.
|
| 8 |
vocavitque Iohanan filium Caree et omnes principes bellatorum qui erant cum eo et universum populum a minimo usque ad magnum
And he called Johanan the son of Caree, and all the captains of the fighting men that were with him, and all the people from the least to the greatest.
|
| 9 |
et dixit ad eos haec dicit Dominus Deus Israhel ad quem misistis me ut prosternerem preces vestras in conspectu eius
And he said to them: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel, to whom you sent me, to present your supplications before him:
|
| 10 |
si quiescentes manseritis in terra hac aedificabo vos et non destruam plantabo et non evellam iam enim placatus sum super malo quod feci vobis
If you will be quiet and remain in this land, I will build you up, and not pull you down: I will plant you, and not pluck you up: for now I am appeased for the evil that I have done to you.
|
| 11 |
nolite timere a facie regis Babylonis quem vos pavidi formidatis nolite eum metuere dicit Dominus quia vobiscum sum ego ut salvos faciam vos et eruam de manu eius
Fear not because of the king of Babylon, of whom you are greatly afraid: fear him not, saith the Lord: for I am with you, to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.
|
| 12 |
et dabo vobis misericordiam et miserebor vestri et habitare vos faciam in terra vestra
And I will shew mercies to you, and will take pity on you, and will cause you to dwell in your own land.
|
| 13 |
si autem dixeritis vos non habitabimus in terra ista nec audiemus vocem Domini Dei nostri
But if you say: We will not dwell in this land, neither will we hearken to the voice of the Lord our God,
|
| 14 |
dicentes nequaquam sed ad terram Aegypti pergemus ubi non videbimus bellum et clangorem tubae non audiemus et famem non sustinebimus et ibi habitabimus
Saying: No, but we will go into the land of Egypt: where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor suffer hunger: and there we will dwell.
|
| 15 |
propter hoc nunc audite verbum Domini reliquiae Iuda haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel si posueritis faciem vestram ut ingrediamini Aegyptum et intraveritis ut ibi habitetis
For this now hear the word of the Lord, ye remnant of Juda: Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: If you set your faces to go into Egypt, and enter in to dwell there:
|
| 16 |
gladium quem vos formidatis ibi conprehendet vos in terra Aegypti et fames pro qua estis solliciti adherebit vobis in Aegypto et ibi moriemini
The sword which you fear, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt: and the famine, whereof you are afraid, shall cleave to you in Egypt, and there you shall die.
|
| 17 |
omnesque viri qui posuerint faciem suam ut ingrediantur Aegyptum et habitent ibi morientur gladio et fame et peste nullus de eis remanebit nec effugient a facie mali quod ego adferam super eos
And all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt, to dwell there, shall die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence: none of them shall remain, nor escape from the face of the evil that I will bring upon them.
|
| 18 |
quia haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel sicut conflatus est furor meus et indignatio mea super habitatores Hierusalem sic conflabitur indignatio mea super vos cum ingressi fueritis Aegyptum et eritis in iusiurandum et in stuporem et in maledictum et in obprobrium et nequaquam ultra videbitis locum istum
For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: As my anger and my indignation hath been kindled against the inhabitants of Jerusalem: so shall my indignation be kindled against you, when you shall enter into Egypt, and you shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach: and you shall see this place no more.
|
| 19 |
verbum Domini super vos reliquiae Iuda nolite intrare Aegyptum scientes scietis quia obtestatus sum vobis hodie
This is the word of the Lord concerning you, O ye remnant of Juda: Go ye not into Egypt: know certainly that I have adjured you this day.
|
| 20 |
quia decepistis animas vestras vos enim misistis me ad Dominum Deum nostrum dicentes ora pro nobis ad Dominum Deum nostrum et iuxta omnia quaecumque dixerit tibi Dominus Deus noster sic adnuntia nobis et faciemus
For you have deceived your own souls: for you sent me to the Lord our God, saying: Pray for us to the Lord our God, and according to all that the Lord our God shall say to thee, so declare unto us, and we will do it.
|
| 21 |
et adnuntiavi vobis hodie et non audistis vocem Domini Dei vestri super universis pro quibus misit me ad vos
And now I have declared it to you this day, and you have not obeyed the voice of the Lord your God, with regard to all the things for which he hath sent me to you.
|
| 22 |
nunc ergo scientes scietis quia gladio et fame et peste moriemini in loco ad quem voluistis intrare ut habitaretis ibi
Now therefore know certainly that you shall die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence in the place to which you desire to go to dwell there.
