Prophetia Jeremiae

Hæc dicit Dominus: Vade, et accipe lagunculam figuli testeam a senioribus populi et a senioribus sacerdotum,

Thus saith the Lord: Go, and take a potter's earthen bottle, and take of the ancients of the people, and of the ancients of the priests:

Domino dic hoc: vade, et accipe laguncula de figulo testea ab sene de populo et ab sene de sacerdotes,

et egredere ad vallem filii Ennom, quæ est juxta introitum portæ fictilis: et prædicabis ibi verba quæ ego loquar ad te.

And go forth into the valley of the son of Ennom, which is by the entry of the earthen gate: and there thou shalt proclaim the words that I shall tell thee.

Et egredior ad valle de filio Ennome, que es juxta introitu de porta fictili: et praedica ibi verbos me loque que ad te.

Et dices: Audite verbum Domini, reges Juda, et habitatores Jerusalem. Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israël: Ecce ego inducam afflictionem super locum istum, ita ut omnis qui audierit illam, tinniant aures ejus,

And thou shalt say: Hear the word of the Lord, O ye kings of Juda, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem: Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold I will bring an affliction upon this place: so that whosoever shall hear it, his ears shall tingle:

Et dic: audi verbo de Domino, reges Iuda, et habitatores Ierusalem. Hoc dic Domino de exercitus, Deo Israële: ecce me induce afflictione super loco isto, ita ut omni qui audi illa, tinnie aures de illo,

eo quod dereliquerint me, et alienum fecerint locum istum, et libaverunt in eo diis alienis quos nescierunt, ipsi et patres eorum, et reges Juda: et repleverunt locum istum sanguine innocentum,

Because they have forsaken me, and have profaned this place: and have sacrificed therein to strange gods, whom neither they nor their fathers knew, nor the kings of Juda: and they have filled this place with the blood of innocents.

Eo quod derelinque me, et aliena fac loco isto, et libera in eo dies aliena que ne sci, ipso et patres de illos, et reges Iuda: et reple loco isto sanguine innocento,

et ædificaverunt excelsa Baalim, ad comburendos filios suos igni in holocaustum Baalim: quæ non præcepi, nec locutus sum, nec ascenderunt in cor meum.

And they have built the high places of Baalim, to burn their children with fire for a holocaust to Baalim: which I did not command, nor speak of, neither did it once come into my mind.

Et aedifica excelso Baalime, ad combure filios suo igni in holocausto Baalime: que non praecipie, nec locuto es, nec ascende in corde meo.

Propterea ecce dies veniunt, dicit Dominus, et non vocabitur amplius locus iste Topheth, et vallis filii Ennom, sed vallis occisionis.

Therefore behold the days come, saith the Lord, that this place shall no more be called Topheth, nor the valley of the son of Ennom, but the valley of slaughter.

Propter hoc ecce dies veni, Domino dic, et non voca ample loco isto Topheth, et valle de filio Ennome, sed valle de occisione.

Et dissipabo consilium Juda et Jerusalem in loco isto, et subvertam eos gladio in conspectu inimicorum suorum, et in manu quærentium animas eorum: et dabo cadavera eorum escam volatilibus cæli et bestiis terræ.

And I will defeat the counsel of Juda and of Jerusalem in this place: and I will destroy them with the sword in the sight of their enemies, and by the hands of them that seek their lives: and I will give their carcasses to be meat for the fowls of the air, and for the beasts of the earth.

Et dissipa consilio Iuda et Ierusalem in loco isto, et subverte illos gladio in conspectu de inimicos suo, et in manu quaere animas de illos: et da cadaveras de illos esca volatiles de caelo et bestias de terra.

Et ponam civitatem hanc in stuporem, et in sibilum: omnis qui præterierit per eam obstupescet, et sibilabit super universa plaga ejus.

And I will make this city an astonishment, and a hissing: every one that shall pass by it, shall be astonished, and shall hiss because of all the plagues thereof.

Et pone civitate hoc in stupore, et in sibilo: omni qui praeteri per illa obstupesce, et sibila super universa plaga de illo.

Et cibabo eos carnibus filiorum suorum et carnibus filiarum suarum: et unusquisque carnem amici sui comedet in obsidione, et in angustia in qua concludent eos inimici eorum, et qui quærunt animas eorum.

And I will feed them with the flesh of their sons, and with the flesh of their daughters: and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend in the siege, and in the distress wherewith their enemies, and they that seek their lives, shall straiten them.

Et ciba illos carnes de filios suo et carnes de filias suo: et et unusquis carne de amico suo comede in obsidione, et in angustia in quo conclude illos inimicos de illos, et qui quaere animas de illos.

Et conteres lagunculam in oculis virorum qui ibunt tecum,

And thou shalt break the bottle in the sight of the men that shall go with thee.

Et contere laguncula in oculos de viros qui i tecum,

et dices ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum: Sic conteram populum istum, et civitatem istam, sicut conteritur vas figuli, quod non potest ultra instaurari: et in Topheth sepelientur, eo quod non sit alius locus ad sepeliendum.

And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Even so will I break this people, and this city, as the potter's vessel is broken, which cannot be made whole again: and they shall be buried in Topheth, because there is no other place to bury in.

Et dic ad illos: Domino de exercitus dic hoc: sic contere populo isto, et civitate isto, sicut contere vase de figulo, quod non pote ultra instaura: et in Topheth sepeli, eo quod non es alio loco ad sepeli.

Sic faciam loco huic, ait Dominus, et habitatoribus ejus, et ponam civitatem istam sicut Topheth.

Thus will I do to this place, saith the Lord, and to the inhabitants thereof: and I will make this city as Topheth.

Sic fac loco ad hoc, Domino dic, et ad habitatores de illo, et pone civitate isto sicut Topheth.

Et erunt domus Jerusalem, et domus regum Juda, sicut locus Topheth, immundæ, omnes domus in quarum domatibus sacrificaverunt omni militiæ cæli, et libaverunt libamina diis alienis.

And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Juda shall be unclean as the place of Topheth: all the houses upon whose roofs they have sacrificed to all the host of heaven, and have poured out drink offerings to strange gods.

Et es domos Ierusalem, et domo de reges Iuda, sicut loco Topheth, de immunda, omni domo in qui domates omni de militia de caelo sacrifica, et libera libamines ad dies aliena.

Venit autem Jeremias de Topheth, quo miserat eum Dominus ad prophetandum, et stetit in atrio domus Domini, et dixit ad omnem populum:

Then Jeremiah came from Topheth, whither the Lord had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the court of the house of the Lord, and said to all the people:

Veni autem Ieremia de Topheth, quo Domino mitte illo ad propheta, et sta in atrio de domo de Domino, et dic ad omni populo:

Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israël: Ecce ego inducam super civitatem hanc, et super omnes urbes ejus, universa mala quæ locutus sum adversum eam, quoniam induraverunt cervicem suam ut non audirent sermones meos.

Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold I will bring in upon this city, and upon all the cities thereof all the evils that I have spoken against it: because they have hardened their necks, that they might not hear my words.

Hoc dic Domino de exercitus, Deo Israële: ecce me induce super civitate hoc, et super omni urbes de illo, universa malo que locuto es contra illa, quia indura cervice suo ut non audi sermones meo.
