Jeremiah 13: Douay-Rheims, Vulgata Clementina and Septuagint (Sixtine edition, 1587)
Douay-RheimsVulgata ClementinaSeptuagint (Sixtine edition, 1587)
1Thus saith the Lord to me: Go, and get thee a linen girdle, and thou shalt put it about thy loins, and shalt not put it into water.Haec dicit Dominus ad me: Vade, et posside tibi lumbare lineum, et pones illud super lumbos tuos, et in aquam non inferes illud.Τάδε λέγει Κύριος, βάδισον καὶ κτῆσαι σεαυτῷ περίζωμα λινοῦν, καὶ περίθου περὶ τὴν ὀσφύν σου, καὶ ἐν ὕδατι οὐ διελεύσεται.
2And I got a girdle accoding to the word of the Lord, and put it about my loins.Et possedi lumbare iuxta verbum Domini, et posui circa lumbos meos.Καὶ ἐκτησάμην τὸ περίζωμα κατὰ τὸν λόγον Κυρίου, καὶ περιέθηκα περὶ τὴν ὀσφύν μου.
3And the word of the Lord came to me the second time, saying:Et factus est sermo Domini ad me secundo, dicens:Καὶ ἐγενήθη λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς μὲ, λέγων,
4Take the girdle which thou hast got, which is about thy loins, and arise, and go to the Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock.Tolle lumbare quod possedisti, quod est circa lumbos tuos: et surgens vade ad Euphraten, et absconde ibi illud in foramine petrae.λάβε τὸ περίζωμα τὸ περὶ τὴν ὀσφύν σου, καὶ ἀνάστηθι, καὶ βάδισον ἐπὶ τὸν Εὐφράτην, καὶ κατάκρυψον αὐτὸ ἐκεῖ ἐν τῇ τρυμαλιᾷ τῆς πέτρας.
5And I went, and hid it by the Euphrates, as the Lord had commanded me.Et abii, et abscondi illud in Euphrate, sicut praeceperat mihi Dominus.Καὶ ἐπορεύθην, καὶ ἔκρυψα αὐτὸ ἐν τῷ Εὐφράτῃ, καθὼς ἐνετείλατό μοι Κύριος.
6And it came to pass after many days, that the Lord said to me: Arise, go to the Euphrates, and take from thence the girdle, which I commanded thee to hide there.Et factum est post dies plurimos, dixit Dominus ad me: Surge, vade ad Euphraten, et tolle inde lumbare quod praecepi tibi ut absconderes illud ibi.Καὶ ἐγένετο μεθʼ ἡμέρας πολλὰς, καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς μὲ, ἀνάστηθι, βάδισον ἐπὶ τὸν Εὐφράτην, καὶ λάβε ἐκεῖθεν τὸ περίζωμα, ὃ ἐνετειλάμην σοι τοῦ κατακρύψαι ἐκεῖ.
7And I went to the Euphrates, and digged, and took the girdle out of the place where I had hid it: and behold the girdle was rotten, so that it was fit for no use.Et abii ad Euphraten, et fodi, et tuli lumbare de loco ubi absconderam illud: et ecce computruerat lumbare, ita ut nulli usui aptum esset.Καὶ ἐπορεύθην ἐπὶ τὸν Εὐφράτην ποταμὸν, καὶ ὤρυξα, καὶ ἔλαβον τὸ περίζωμα ἐκ τοῦ τόπου οὗ κατώρυξα αὐτὸ ἐκεῖ, καὶ ἰδοὺ διεφθαρμένον ἦν, ὃ οὐ μὴ χρησθῇ εἰς οὐθέν.
8And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:Καὶ ἐγενήθη λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς μὲ, λέγων,
9Thus saith the Lord: after this manner will I make the pride of Juda, and the great pride of Jerusalem to rot.Haec dicit Dominus: Sic putrescere faciam superbiam Iuda, et superbiam Ierusalem multam:Τάδε λέγει Κύριος, οὕτω φθερῶ τὴν ὕβριν Ἰούδα καὶ τὴν ὕβριν Ἱερουσαλὴμ,
10This wicked people, that will not hear my words, and that walk in the perverseness of their heart, and have gone after strange gods to serve them, and to adore them: and they shall be as this girdle which is fit for no use.populum istum pessimum qui nolunt audire verba mea, et ambulant in pravitate cordis sui, abieruntque post deos alienos ut servirent eis et adorarent eos: et erunt sicut lumbare istud, quod nulli usui aptum est.τὴν πολλὴν ταύτην ὕβριν, τοὺς μὴ βουλομένους ὑπακούειν τῶν λόγων μου, καὶ πορευθέντας ὀπίσω θεῶν ἀλλοτρίων τοῦ δουλεύειν αὐτοῖς, καὶ τοῦ προσκυνεῖν αὐτοῖς· καὶ ἔσονται ὥσπερ τὸ περίζωμα τοῦτο, ὃ οὐ χρησθήσεται εἰς οὐθέν.
11For as the girdle sticketh close to the loins of a man, so have I brought close to me all of the house of Israel, and all the house of Juda, saith the Lord: that they might be my people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.Sicut enim adhaeret lumbare ad lumbos viri, sic agglutinavi mihi omnem domum Israël, et omnem domum Iuda, dicit Dominus, ut essent mihi in populum, et in nomen, et in laudem, et in gloriam: et non audierunt.Ὅτι καθάπερ κολλᾶται τὸ περίζωμα περὶ τὴν ὀσφὺν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου, οὕτως ἐκόλλησα πρὸς ἐμαυτὸν τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ πάντα οἶκον Ἰούδα, τοῦ γενέσθαι μοι εἰς λαὸν ὀνομαστὸν, καὶ εἰς καύχημα, καὶ εἰς δόξαν, καὶ οὐκ εἰσήκουσάν μου.
12Thou shalt speak therefore to them this word: Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: Every bottle shall be filled with wine, and they shall say to thee: Do we not know that every bottle shall be filled with wine?Dices ergo ad eos sermonem istum: Haec dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Omnis laguncula implebitur vino. Et dicent ad te: Numquid ignoramus quia omnis laguncula implebitur vino?Καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον, πᾶς ἀσκὸς πληρωθήσεται οἴνου· καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν εἴπωσι πρὸς σὲ, μὴ γνόντες οὐ γνωσόμεθα, ὅτι πᾶς ἀσκὸς πληρωθήσεται οἴνου;
13And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, and the kings of the race of David that sit upon his throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. with drunkenness.Et dices ad eos: Haec dicit Dominus: Ecce ego implebo omnes habitatores terrae huius, et reges qui sedent de stirpe David super thronum eius, et sacerdotes, et prophetas, et omnes habitatores Ierusalem, ebrietate.Καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτοὺς, τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ πληρῶ τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν ταύτην, καὶ τοὺς βασιλεῖς αὐτῶν τοὺς καθημένους υἱοὺς τοῦ Δαυὶδ ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου αὐτῶν, καὶ τοὺς ἱερεῖς καὶ τοὺς προφήτας, καὶ τὸν Ἰούδαν καὶ πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, μεθύσματι·
14And I will scatter them every man from his brother, and fathers and sons in like manner, saith the Lord: I will not spare, and I will not pardon: nor will I have mercy, but to destroy them.Et dispergam eos virum a fratre suo, et patres et filios pariter, ait Dominus. Non parcam, et non concedam: neque miserebor, ut non disperdam eos.Καὶ διασκορπιῶ αὐτοὺς ἄνδρα καὶ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ τοὺς πατέρας αὐτῶν, καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ αὐτῷ· οὐκ ἐπιποθήσω, λέγει Κύριος, καὶ οὐ φείσομαι, καὶ οὐκ οἰκτειρήσω ἀπὸ διαφθορᾶς αὐτῶν.
15Hear ye, and give ear: Be not proud, for the Lord hath spoken.Audite, et auribus percipite: nolite elevari, quia Dominus locutus est.Ἀκούσατε, καὶ ἐνωτίσασθε, καὶ μὴ ἐπαίρεσθε, ὅτι Κύριος ἐλάλησε.
16Give ye glory to the Lord your God, before it be dark, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains: you shall look for light, and he will turn it into the shadow of death, and into darkness.Date Domino Deo vestro gloriam antequam contenebrescat, et antequam offendant pedes vestri ad montes caliginosos: exspectabitis lucem, et ponet eam in umbram mortis, et in caliginem.Δότε τῷ Κυρίῳ Θεῷ ὑμῶν δόξαν πρὸ τοῦ συσκοτάσαι, καὶ πρὸ τοῦ προσκόψαι πόδας ὑμῶν ἐπʼ ὄρη σκοτεινά· καὶ ἀναμενεῖτε εἰς φῶς, καὶ ἐκεῖ σκιὰ θανάτου καὶ τεθήσονται εἰς σκότος.
17But if you will not hear this, my soul shall weep in secret for your pride: weeping it shall weep, and my eyes shall run down the tears, because the flock of the Lord is carried away captive.Quod si hoc non audieritis, in abscondito plorabit anima mea a facie superbiae: plorans plorabit, et deducet oculus meus lacrimam, quia captus est grex Domini.Ἐὰν δὲ μὴ ἀκούσητε, κεκρυμμένως κλαύσεται ἡ ψυχὴ ὑμῶν ἀπὸ προσώπου ὕβρεως, καὶ κατάξουσιν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ ὑμῶν δάκρυα, ὅτι συνετρίβη τὸ ποίμνιον Κυρίου.
18Say to the king, and to the queen: Humble yourselves, sit down: for the crown of your glory is come down from your head.Dic regi et dominatrici: Humiliamini, sedete, quoniam descendit de capite vestro corona gloriae vestrae.Εἴπατε τῷ βασιλεῖ καὶ τοῖς δυναστεύουσι, ταπεινώθητε καὶ καθίσατε, ὅτι καθῃρέθη ἀπὸ κεφαλῆς ὑμῶν στέφανος δόξης ὑμῶν.
19The cities of the south are shut up, and there is none to open them: all Juda is carried away captive with an entire captivity.Civitates austri clausae sunt, et non est qui aperiat: translata est omnis Iuda transmigratione perfecta.Πόλεις αἱ πρὸς Νότον, συνεκλείσθησαν, καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ ἀνοίγων· ἀποικίσθη Ἰούδας, συνετέλεσαν ἀποικίαν τελείαν.
20Lift up your eyes, and see, you that come from the north: where is the flock that is given thee, thy beautiful cattle?Levate oculos vestros et videte, qui venitis ab aquilone: ubi est grex qui datus est tibi, pecus inclytum tuum?Ἀνάλαβε ὀφθαλμούς σου Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἴδε τοὺς ἐρχομένους ἀπὸ Βοῤῥᾶ· ποῦ ἐστι τὸ ποίμνιον ὃ ἐδόθη σοι, πρόβατα δόξης σου;
21What wilt thou say when he shall visit thee? for thou hast taught them against thee, and instructed them against thy own head: shall not sorrows lay hold on thee, as a woman in labour?Quid dices cum visitaverit te? tu enim docuisti eos adversum te, et erudisti in caput tuum. Numquid non dolores apprehendent te, quasi mulierem parturientem?Τί ἐρεῖς ὅταν ἐπισκέπτωνταί σε; καὶ σὺ ἐδίδαξας αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ σὲ μαθήματα εἰς ἀρχήν· οὐκ ὠδῖνες καθέξουσί σε καθὼς γυναῖκα τίκτουσαν;
22And if thou shalt say in thy heart: Why are these things come upon me? For the greatness of thy iniquity, thy nakedness is discovered, the soles of thy feet are defiled.Quod si dixeris in corde tuo: Quare venerunt mihi haec? propter multitudinem iniquitatis tuae revelata sunt verecundiora tua, pollutae sunt plantae tuae.Καὶ ἐὰν εἴπῃς ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου, διατί ἀπήντησέ μοι ταῦτα; διὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῆς ἀδικίας σου ἀνεκαλύφθη τὰ ὀπίσθιά σου, παραδειγματισθῆναι τὰς πτέρνας σου.
23If the Ethiopian can change his skin, or the leopard his spots: you may also do well, when you have learned evil.Si mutare potest Aethiops pellem suam, aut pardus varietates suas, et vos poteritis benefacere, cum didiceritis malum.Εἰ ἀλλάξεται Αἰθίοψ τὸ δέρμα αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάρδαλις τὰ ποικίλματα αὐτῆς, καὶ ὑμεῖς δυνήσεσθε εὐποιῆσαι μεμαθηκότες τὰ κακά.
24And I will scatter them as stubble, which is carried away by the wind in the desert.Et disseminabo eos quasi stipulam quae vento raptatur in deserto.Καὶ διέσπειρα αὐτοὺς, ὡς φρύγανα φερόμενα ὑπὸ ἀνέμου εἰς ἔρημον.
25This is thy lot, and the portion of thy measure from me, saith the Lord, because thou hast forgotten me, and hast trusted in falsehood.Haec sors tua, parsque mensurae tuae a me, dicit Dominus, quia oblita es mei, et confisa es in mendacio.Οὕτως ὁ κλῆρός σου, καὶ μερὶς τοῦ ἀπειθεῖν ὑμᾶς ἐμοὶ, λέγει Κύριος· ὡς ἐπελάθου μου, καὶ ἤλπισας ἐπὶ ψεύδεσι,
26Wherefore I have also bared my thighs against thy face, and thy shame hath appeared.Unde et ego nudavi femora tua contra faciem tuam, et apparuit ignominia tua:κᾀγὼ ἀποκαλύψω τὰ ὀπίσω σου ἐπὶ τὸ πρόσωπόν σου, καὶ ὀφθήσεται ἡ ἀτιμία σου,
27I have seen thy adulteries, and thy neighing, the wickedness of thy fornication: and thy abominations, upon the hills in the field. Woe to thee, Jerusalem, wilt thou not be made clean after me: how long yet?adulteria tua, et hinnitus tuus, scelus fornicationis tuae: super colles in agro vidi abominationes tuas. Vae tibi, Ierusalem! non mundaberis post me: usquequo adhuc?καὶ ἡ μοιχεία σου, καὶ χρεμετισμός σου, καὶ ἡ ἀπαλλοτρίωσις τῆς πορνείας σου· ἐπὶ τῶν βουνῶν, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἀγροῖς ἑώρακα τὰ βδελύγματά σου· οὐαί σοι Ἱερουσαλὴμ, ὅτι οὐκ ἐκαθαρίσθης ὀπίσω μου· ἕως τίνος ἔτι;

Jesus laments over Jerusalem, which kills the prophets

The same day, there came some of the Pharisees, saying to him: Depart, and get thee hence, for Herod hath a mind to kill thee. And he said to them: Go and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and do cures today and…
