KJV ¹ Then said the LORD unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.

VULC ¹ Et dixit Dominus ad me : [Si steterit Moyses et Samuel coram me,
non est anima mea ad populum istum :
ejice illos a facie mea, et egrediantur.

KJV ² And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the LORD; Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.

VULC ² Quod si dixerint ad te : Quo egrediemur ?
dices ad eos : Hæc dicit Dominus :
Qui ad mortem, ad mortem,
et qui ad gladium, ad gladium,
et qui ad famem, ad famem,
et qui ad captivitatem, ad captivitatem.

KJV ³ And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the LORD: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.

VULC ³ Et visitabo super eos quatuor species, dicit Dominus :
gladium ad occisionem,
et canes ad lacerandum,
et volatilia cæli et bestias terræ
ad devorandum et dissipandum.

KJV ⁴ And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.

VULC ⁴ Et dabo eos in fervorem universis regnis terræ,
propter Manassen filium Ezechiæ regis Juda,
super omnibus quæ fecit in Jerusalem.

KJV ⁵ For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go aside to ask how thou doest?

VULC ⁵ Quis enim miserebitur tui, Jerusalem,
aut quis contristabitur pro te ?
aut quis ibit ad rogandum pro pace tua ?

KJV ⁶ Thou hast forsaken me, saith the LORD, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.

VULC ⁶ Tu reliquisti me, dicit Dominus ;
retrorsum abiisti :
et extendam manum meam super te, et interficiam te :
laboravi rogans.

KJV ⁷ And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave them of children, I will destroy my people since they return not from their ways.

VULC ⁷ Et dispergam eos ventilabro in portis terræ :
interfeci et disperdidi populum meum,
et tamen a viis suis non sunt reversi.

KJV ⁸ Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noonday: I have caused him to fall upon it suddenly, and terrors upon the city.

VULC ⁸ Multiplicatæ sunt mihi viduæ ejus super arenam maris :
induxi eis super matrem adolescentis vastatorem meridie :
misi super civitates repente terrorem.

KJV ⁹ She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while it was yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the LORD.

VULC ⁹ Infirmata est quæ peperit septem ;
defecit anima ejus :
occidit ei sol cum adhuc esset dies :
confusa est, et erubuit :
et residuos ejus in gladium dabo
in conspectu inimicorum eorum, ait Dominus.]

KJV ¹⁰ Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; yet every one of them doth curse me.

VULC ¹⁰ [Væ mihi, mater mea ! quare genuisti me,
virum rixæ, virum discordiæ in universa terra ?
Non fœneravi, nec fœneravit mihi quisquam :
omnes maledicunt mihi.

KJV ¹¹ The LORD said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant; verily I will cause the enemy to entreat thee well in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.

VULC ¹¹ Dicit Dominus : Si non reliquiæ tuæ in bonum,
si non occurri tibi in tempore afflictionis,
et in tempore tribulationis adversus inimicum.

KJV ¹² Shall iron break the northern iron and the steel?

VULC ¹² Numquid fœderabitur ferrum ferro ab aquilone, et æs ?

KJV ¹³ Thy substance and thy treasures will I give to the spoil without price, and that for all thy sins, even in all thy borders.

VULC ¹³ Divitias tuas et thesauros tuos in direptionem dabo gratis,
in omnibus peccatis tuis, et in omnibus terminis tuis.

KJV ¹⁴ And I will make thee to pass with thine enemies into a land which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger, which shall burn upon you.

VULC ¹⁴ Et adducam inimicos tuos de terra quam nescis,
quia ignis succensus est in furore meo :
super vos ardebit.

KJV ¹⁵ O LORD, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke.

VULC ¹⁵ Tu scis, Domine : recordare mei, et visita me,
et tuere me ab his qui persequuntur me.
Noli in patientia tua suscipere me :
scito quoniam sustinui propter te opprobrium.

KJV ¹⁶ Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.

VULC ¹⁶ Inventi sunt sermones tui, et comedi eos :
et factum est mihi verbum tuum in gaudium
et in lætitiam cordis mei,
quoniam invocatum est nomen tuum super me,
Domine Deus exercituum.

KJV ¹⁷ I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation.

VULC ¹⁷ Non sedi in concilio ludentium,
et gloriatus sum a facie manus tuæ :
solus sedebam, quoniam comminatione replesti me.

KJV ¹⁸ Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, and as waters that fail?

VULC ¹⁸ Quare factus est dolor meus perpetuus,
et plaga mea desperabilis renuit curari ?
facta est mihi quasi mendacium aquarum infidelium.

KJV ¹⁹ Therefore thus saith the LORD, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them.

VULC ¹⁹ Propter hoc hæc dicit Dominus :
Si converteris, convertam te,
et ante faciem meam stabis :
et si separaveris pretiosum a vili,
quasi os meum eris :
convertentur ipsi ad te,
et tu non converteris ad eos.

KJV ²⁰ And I will make thee unto this people a fenced brasen wall: and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee: for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the LORD.

VULC ²⁰ Et dabo te populo huic in murum æreum fortem :
et bellabunt adversum te, et non prævalebunt,
quia ego tecum sum ut salvem te, et eruam te, dicit Dominus :

KJV ²¹ And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.

VULC ²¹ et liberabo te de manu pessimorum,
et redimam te de manu fortium.]

KJV ¹ The word of the LORD came also unto me, saying,

VULC ¹ Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens :

KJV ² Thou shalt not take thee a wife, neither shalt thou have sons or daughters in this place.

VULC ² [Non accipies uxorem,
et non erunt tibi filii et filiæ in loco isto.

KJV ³ For thus saith the LORD concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that bare them, and concerning their fathers that begat them in this land;

VULC ³ Quia hæc dicit Dominus
super filios et filias qui generantur in loco isto,
et super matres eorum, quæ genuerunt eos,
et super patres eorum, de quorum stirpe sunt nati in terra hac :

KJV ⁴ They shall die of grievous deaths; they shall not be lamented; neither shall they be buried; but they shall be as dung upon the face of the earth: and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their carcases shall be meat for the fowls of heaven, and for the beasts of the earth.

VULC ⁴ Mortibus ægrotationum morientur :
non plangentur, et non sepelientur :
in sterquilinium super faciem terræ erunt,
et gladio et fame consumentur :
et erit cadaver eorum in escam volatilibus cæli et bestiis terræ.

KJV ⁵ For thus saith the LORD, Enter not into the house of mourning, neither go to lament nor bemoan them: for I have taken away my peace from this people, saith the LORD, even lovingkindness and mercies.

VULC ⁵ Hæc 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.

KJV ⁶ Both the great and the small shall die in this land: they shall not be buried, neither shall men lament for them, nor cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them:

VULC ⁶ Et morientur grandes et parvi in terra ista :
non sepelientur, neque plangentur,
et non se incident,
neque calvitium fiet pro eis.

KJV ⁷ Neither shall men tear themselves for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall men give them the cup of consolation to drink for their father or for their mother.

VULC ⁷ Et non frangent inter eos lugenti panem
ad consolandum super mortuo,
et non dabunt eis potum calicis
ad consolandum super patre suo et matre.

KJV ⁸ Thou shalt not also go into the house of feasting, to sit with them to eat and to drink.

VULC ⁸ Et domum convivii non ingrediaris,
ut sedeas cum eis, et comedas, et bibas.

KJV ⁹ For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place in your eyes, and in your days, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.

VULC ⁹ Quia hæc dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israël :
Ecce ego auferam de loco isto,
in oculis vestris, et in diebus vestris,
vocem gaudii et vocem lætitiæ,
vocem sponsi et vocem sponsæ.

KJV ¹⁰ And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt shew this people all these words, and they shall say unto thee, Wherefore hath the LORD pronounced all this great evil against us? or what is our iniquity? or what is our sin that we have committed against the LORD our God?

VULC ¹⁰ Et cum annuntiaveris populo huic omnia verba hæc,
et dixerint tibi :
Quare locutus est Dominus super nos omne malum grande istud ?
quæ iniquitas nostra,
et quod peccatum nostrum,
quod peccavimus Domino Deo nostro ?

KJV ¹¹ Then shalt thou say unto them, Because your fathers have forsaken me, saith the LORD, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;

VULC ¹¹ 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.

KJV ¹² And ye have done worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the imagination of his evil heart, that they may not hearken unto me:

VULC ¹² Sed et vos pejus operati estis quam patres vestri :
ecce enim ambulat unusquisque post pravitatem cordis sui mali,
ut me non audiat.

KJV ¹³ Therefore will I cast you out of this land into a land that ye know not, neither ye nor your fathers; and there shall ye serve other gods day and night; where I will not shew you favour.

VULC ¹³ Et ejiciam 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.

KJV ¹⁴ Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be said, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

VULC ¹⁴ Propterea ecce dies veniunt, dicit Dominus,
et non dicetur ultra :
Vivit Dominus qui eduxit filios Israël de terra Ægypti,

KJV ¹⁵ But, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers.

VULC ¹⁵ sed : Vivit Dominus qui eduxit filios Israël de terra aquilonis,
et de universis terris ad quas ejeci eos :
et reducam eos in terram suam,
quam dedi patribus eorum.

KJV ¹⁶ Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith the LORD, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.

VULC ¹⁶ Ecce ego mittam piscatores multos, dicit Dominus,
et piscabuntur eos :
et post hæc mittam eis multos venatores,
et venabuntur eos de omni monte,
et de omni colle, et de cavernis petrarum.

KJV ¹⁷ For mine eyes are upon all their ways: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquity hid from mine eyes.

VULC ¹⁷ Quia oculi mei super omnes vias eorum :
non sunt absconditæ a facie mea,
et non fuit occultata iniquitas eorum ab oculis meis.

KJV ¹⁸ And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have defiled my land, they have filled mine inheritance with the carcases of their detestable and abominable things.

VULC ¹⁸ Et reddam primum duplices iniquitates et peccata eorum,
quia contaminaverunt terram meam in morticinis idolorum suorum,
et abominationibus suis impleverunt hæreditatem meam.

KJV ¹⁹ O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.

VULC ¹⁹ Domine, fortitudo mea, et robur meum,
et refugium meum in die tribulationis,
ad te gentes venient ab extremis terræ, et dicent :
Vere mendacium possederunt patres nostri,
vanitatem quæ eis non profuit.

KJV ²⁰ Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they are no gods?

VULC ²⁰ Numquid faciet sibi homo deos,
et ipsi non sunt dii ?

KJV ²¹ Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know mine hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is The LORD.

VULC ²¹ Idcirco ecce ego ostendam eis per vicem hanc,
ostendam eis manum meam, et virtutem meam,
et scient quia nomen mihi Dominus.]

KJV ¹ The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars;

VULC ¹ [Peccatum Juda scriptum est stylo ferreo
in ungue adamantino,
exaratum super latitudinem cordis eorum,
et in cornibus ararum eorum.

KJV ² Whilst their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees upon the high hills.

VULC ² Cum recordati fuerint filii eorum ararum suarum,
et lucorum suorum,
lignorumque frondentium,
in montibus excelsis,

KJV ³ O my mountain in the field, I will give thy substance and all thy treasures to the spoil, and thy high places for sin, throughout all thy borders.

VULC ³ sacrificantes in agro :
fortitudinem tuam, et omnes thesauros tuos in direptionem dabo ;
excelsa tua propter peccata in universis finibus tuis.

KJV ⁴ And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue from thine heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in mine anger, which shall burn for ever.

VULC ⁴ Et relinqueris sola ab hæreditate tua, quam dedi tibi,
et servire te faciam inimicis tuis in terra quam ignoras :
quoniam ignem succendisti in furore meo :
usque in æternum ardebit.]
