Prophetia Jeremiae

In illo tempore, ait Dominus, ejicient ossa regum Juda, et ossa principum ejus, et ossa sacerdotum, et ossa prophetarum, et ossa eorum qui habitaverunt Jerusalem, de sepulchris suis:

At that time, saith the Lord, they shall cast out the bones of the kings of Juda, and the bones of the princes thereof, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves.

In illo tempore, Domino dic, eiice ores de reges Iuda, et ores de principes de illo, et ores de sacerdotes, et ores de prophetas, et ores de illos qui habita Ierusalem, de sepulchros suo:

et expandent ea ad solem, et lunam, et omnem militiam cæli, quæ dilexerunt, et quibus servierunt, et post quæ ambulaverunt, et quæ quæsierunt, et adoraverunt. Non colligentur, et non sepelientur: in sterquilinium super faciem terræ erunt.

And they shall spread them abroad to the sun, and the moon, and all the host of heaven, whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and after whom have walked, and whom they have sought, and adored: they shall not be gathered, and they shall not be buried: they shall be as dung upon the face of the earth.

Et expande illa ad sole, et luna, et omni militia de caelo, que dilige, et ad que servi, et post que ambula, et que quaere, et adora. Non collige, et non sepeli: in sterquilinio super facie de terra es.

Et eligent magis mortem quam vitam, omnes qui residui fuerint de cognatione hac pessima, in universis locis quæ derelicta sunt, ad quæ ejeci eos, dicit Dominus exercituum.

And death shall be chosen rather than life by all that shall remain of this wicked kindred in all places, which are left, to which I have cast them out, saith the Lord of hosts.

Et elige magis morte quam vita, omni qui residua es de cognatione hoc pessima, in universa locos que derelingua es, ad que eicie illos, Domino de exercitus dic.

Et dices ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus: Numquid qui cadit non resurget? et qui aversus est non revertetur?

And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord: Shall not he that falleth, rise again? and he that is turned away, shall he not turn again?

Et dic ad illos: Domino dic hoc: numquid qui cade non resurge? Et qui averte es non reverte?

Quare ergo aversus est populus iste in Jerusalem aversione contentiosa? Apprehenderunt mendacium, et noluerunt reverti.

Why then is this people in Jerusalem turned away with a stubborn revolting? they have laid hold on lying, and have refused to return.

Quare ergo averte es populo isto in Ierusalem aversione contentiosa? Apprehende mendacio, et ne vol reverte.

Attendi, et auscultavi: nemo quod bonum est loquitur; nullus est qui agat pœnitentiam super peccato suo, dicens: Quid feci? Omnes conversi sunt ad cursum suum, quasi equus impetu vadens ad prælium.

I attended, and hearkened; no man speaketh what is good, there is none that doth penance for his sin, saying: What have I done? They are all turned to their own course, as a horse rushing to the battle.

Attende, et ausculta: nemo quod bono es loque; nullo es qui age poenitentia super peccato suo, dicente: quid fac? Omni converte es ad cursu suo, quasi equo impetu vade ad praelio.

Milvus in cælo cognovit tempus suum: turtur, et hirundo, et ciconia custodierunt tempus adventus sui: populus autem meus non cognovit judicium Domini.

The kite in the air hath known her time: the turtle, and the swallow, and the stork have observed the time of their coming: but my people have not known the judgment of the Lord.

Milvo in caelo cognosce tempore suo: turture, et hirundine, et ciconia custodi tempore de adventu suo: populo autem meo non cognosce iudicio de Domino.

Quomodo dicitis: Sapientes nos sumus, et lex Domini nobiscum est? vere mendacium operatus est stylus mendax scribarum!

How do you say: We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us? Indeed the lying pens of the scribes hath wrought falsehood.

Quomodo dic: sapiens nos es, et lege de Domino nobiscum es? Vere mendacio operor es stylo mendace de scribas!

Confusi sunt sapientes; perterriti et capti sunt: verbum enim Domini projecerunt, et sapientia nulla est in eis.

The wise men are confounded, they are dismayed, and taken: for they have cast away the word of the Lord, and there is no wisdom in them.

Confunde es sape; perterre et cape es: verbo nam de Domino proicie, et sapientia nullo es in illos.

Propterea dabo mulieres eorum exteris, agros eorum hæredibus, quia a minimo usque ad maximum omnes avaritiam sequuntur: a propheta usque ad sacerdotem cuncti faciunt mendacium.

Therefore will I give their women to strangers, their fields to others for an inheritance: because from the least even to the greatest all follow covetousness: from the prophet even to the priest all deal deceitfully.

Propter hoc da mulieres de illos exteriori, agros de illos haeres, quia ab minimo usque ad magna omni avaritia seque: ab propheta usque ad sacerdote cuncta fac mendacio.

Et sanabant contritionem filiæ populi mei ad ignominiam, dicentes: Pax, pax! cum non esset pax.

And they healed the breach of the daughter of my people disgracefully, saying: Peace, peace: when there was no peace.

Et sana contritione de filia de populo meo ad ignominia, dicente: pace, pace! Cum non es pace.

Confusi sunt, quia abominationem fecerunt: quinimmo confusione non sunt confusi, et erubescere nescierunt. Idcirco cadent inter corruentes: in tempore visitationis suæ corruent, dicit Dominus.

They are confounded, because they have committed abomination: yea rather they are not confounded with confusion, and they have not known how to blush: therefore shall they fall among them that fall; in the time of their visitation they shall fall, saith the Lord.

Confunde es, quia abominatione fac: quinimmo confusione non es confunde, et erubesce ne sci. Ergo cade inter corrue: in tempore de visitatione suo corrue, Domino dic.

Congregans congregabo eos, ait Dominus. Non est uva in vitibus, et non sunt ficus in ficulnea: folium defluxit, et dedi eis quæ prætergressa sunt.

Gathering I will gather them together, saith the Lord, there is no grape on the vines, and there are no figs on the fig tree, the leaf is fallen: and I have given them the things that are passed away.

Congrega congrega illos, Domino dic. Non uva es in vites, et non ficus es in ficulnea: folio deflue, et da ad illos que praetergredior es.

Quare sedemus? convenite, et ingrediamur civitatem munitam, et sileamus ibi: quia Dominus Deus noster silere nos fecit, et potum dedit nobis aquam fellis: peccavimus enim Domino.

Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the fenced city, and let us be silent there: for the Lord our God hath put us to silence, and hath given us water of gall to drink: for we have sinned against the Lord.

Quare sede? Conveni, et ingredior civitate munita, et sile ibi: quia Domino Deo nostro sile nos fac, et potu da ad nos aqua de felle: pecca nam ad Domino.

Exspectavimus pacem, et non erat bonum: tempus medelæ, et ecce formido.

We looked for peace and no good came: for a time of healing, and behold fear.

Expecta pace, et non es bono: tempore medelo, et ecce formido.

A Dan auditus est fremitus equorum ejus; a voce hinnituum pugnatorum ejus commota est omnis terra: et venerunt, et devoraverunt terram et plenitudinem ejus; urbem et habitatores ejus.

The snorting of his horses was heard from Dan, all the land was moved at the sound of the neighing of his warriors: and they came and devoured the land, and all that was in it: the city and its inhabitants.

Ab Dano audito es fremitu de equos de illo; ab voce de hinnitus de pugnatos de illo commove es omni terra: et veni, et devora terra et plenitudine de illo; urbe et habitatores de illo.

Quia ecce ego mittam vobis serpentes regulos, quibus non est incantatio: et mordebunt vos, ait Dominus.

For behold I will send among you serpents, basilisks, against which there is no charm: and they shall bite you, saith the Lord.

Quia ecce me mitte ad vos serpentes regulos, ad que non incantatione es: et morde vos, Domino dic.

Dolor meus super dolorem, in me cor meum mœrens.

My sorrow is above sorrow, my heart mourneth within me.

Dolore meo super dolore, in me corde meo moere.

Ecce vox clamoris filiæ populi mei de terra longinqua: Numquid Dominus non est in Sion? aut rex ejus non est in ea? Quare ergo me ad iracundiam concitaverunt in sculptilibus suis, et in vanitatibus alienis?

Behold the voice of the daughter of my people from a far country: Is not the Lord in Sion, or is not her king in her? why then have they provoked me to wrath with their idols, and strange vanities?

Ecce voce de clamore de filia de populo meo de terra longinqua: numquid Domino non es in Sione? Aut rege de illo non es in illa? Quare ergo me ad iracundia concita in sculptili suo, et in vanitates aliena?

Transiit messis, finita est æstas, et nos salvati non sumus.

The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.

Messe transi, finie es aestate, et nos salva non es.

Super contritione filiæ populi mei contritus sum, et contristatus: stupor obtinuit me.

For the affliction of the daughter of my people I am afflicted, and made sorrowful, astonishment hath taken hold on me.

Super contritione de filia de populo meo contre es, et contrista: stupore obtine me.

Numquid resina non est in Galaad? aut medicus non est ibi? quare igitur non est obducta cicatrix filiæ populi mei?

Is there no balm in Galaad? or is there no physician there? Why then is not the wound of the daughter of my people closed?

Numquid resina non es in Galaade? Aut medico non es ibi? Quare ergo non es obduce cicatrice de filia de populo meo?
