Comparison
Hosea 9
Douay-Rheims and Vulgata Clementina, verse by verse.
| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Rejoice not, O Israel: rejoice not as the nations do: for thou hast committed fornication against thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor. | Noli laetari, Israël; noli exsultare sicut populi: quia fornicatus es a Deo tuo; dilexisti mercedem super omnes areas tritici. |
| 2 | The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the wine shall deceive them. | Area et torcular non pascet eos, et vinum mentietur eis: |
| 3 | They shall not dwell in the Lord’s land: Ephraim is returned to Egypt, and hath eaten unclean things among the Assyrians. | non habitabunt in terra Domini. Reversus est Ephraim in Aegyptum, et in Assyriis pollutum comedit. |
| 4 | They shall not offer wine to the Lord, neither shall they please him: their sacrifices shall be like the bread of mourners: all that shall eat it shall be defiled: for their bread is life for their soul, it shall not enter into the house of the Lord. | Non libabunt Domino vinum, et non placebunt ei. Sacrificia eorum quasi panis lugentium; omnes qui comedent eum, contaminabuntur: quia panis eorum animae ipsorum: non intrabit in domum Domini. |
| 5 | What will you do in the solemn day, in the day of the feast of the Lord? | Quid facietis in die solemni, in die festivitatis Domini? |
| 6 | For behold they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them together, Memphis shall bury them: nettles shall inherit their beloved silver, the bur shall be in their tabernacles. | Ecce enim profecti sunt a vastitate: Aegyptus congregabit eos; Memphis sepeliet eos: desiderabile argentum eorum urtica haereditabit, lappa in tabernaculis eorum. |
| 7 | The days of visitation are come, the days of repaying are come: know ye, O Israel, that the prophet was foolish, the spiritual man was mad, for the multitude of thy iniquity, and the multitude of thy madness. | Venerunt dies visitationis, venerunt dies retributionis. Scitote, Israël, stultum prophetam, insanum virum spiritualem, propter multitudinem iniquitatis tuae, et multitudinem amentiae. |
| 8 | The watchman of Ephraim was with my God: the prophet is become a snare of ruin upon all his ways, madness is in the house of his God. | Speculator Ephraim cum Deo meo, propheta laqueus ruinae factus est super omnes vias eius; insania in domo Dei eius. |
| 9 | They have sinned deeply, as in the days of Gabaa: he will remember their iniquity, and will visit their sin. | Profunde peccaverunt, sicut in diebus Gabaa. Recordabitur iniquitatis eorum, et visitabit peccata eorum. |
| 10 | I found Israel like grapes in the desert, I saw their fathers like the firstfruits of the fig tree in the top thereof: but they went in to Beelphegor, and alienated themselves to that confusion, and became abominable, as those things were, which they loved. | Quasi uvas in deserto inveni Israël, quasi prima poma ficulneae in cacumine eius vidi patres eorum: ipsi autem intraverunt ad Beelphegor, et abalienati sunt in confusionem, et facti sunt abominabiles sicut ea quae dilexerunt. |
| 11 | As for Ephraim, their glory hath flown away like a bird from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception. | Ephraim quasi avis avolavit; gloria eorum a partu, et ab utero, et a conceptu. |
| 12 | And though they should bring up their children, I will make them without children among men: yea, and woe to them, when I shall depart from them. | Quod etsi enutrierint filios suos, absque liberis eos faciam in hominibus; sed et vae eis cum recessero ab eis! |
| 13 | Ephraim, as I saw, was a Tyre founded in beauty: and Ephraim shall bring out his children to the murderer. | Ephraim, ut vidi, Tyrus erat fundata in pulchritudine; et Ephraim educet ad interfectorem filios suos. |
| 14 | Give them, O Lord. What wilt thou give them? Give them a womb without children, and dry breasts. | Da eis, Domine. Quid dabis eis? da eis vulvam sine liberis, et ubera arentia. |
| 15 | All their wickedness is in Galgal, for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their devices I will cast them forth out of my house: I will love them no more, all their princes are revolters. | Omnes nequitiae eorum in Galgal, quia ibi exosos habui eos. Propter malitiam adinventionum eorum, de domo mea eiiciam eos; non addam ut diligam eos: omnes principes eorum recedentes. |
| 16 | Ephraim is struck, their root is dried up, they shall yield no fruit. And if they should have issue, I will slay the best beloved fruit of their womb. | Percussus est Ephraim; radix eorum exsiccata est: fructum nequaquam facient, quod etsi genuerint, interficiam amantissima uteri eorum. |
| 17 | My God will cast them away, because they hearkened not to him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations. | Abiiciet eos Deus meus, quia non audierunt eum, et erunt vagi in nationibus. |
