Jeremiah 16
1 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
2 “You must not marry or have sons or daughters in this place.”
Non accipies uxorem, et non erunt tibi filii, et filiae in loco isto.
3 For this is what the LORD says concerning the sons and daughters born in this place, and the mothers who bore them, and the fathers who fathered them in this land:
Quia haec dicit Dominus super filios et filias, qui generantur in loco isto, et super matres eorum, quae genuerunt eos: et super patres eorum, de quorum stirpe sunt nati in terra hac:
4 “They will die from deadly diseases. They will not be mourned or buried, but will lie like dung on the ground. They will be finished off by sword and famine, and their corpses will become food for the birds of the air and beasts of the earth.”
Mortibus aegrotationum morientur: non plangentur, et non sepelientur, in sterquilinium super faciem terrae erunt: et gladio, et fame consumentur: et erit cadaver eorum in escam volatilibus caeli, et bestiis terrae.
5 Indeed, this is what the LORD says: “Do not enter a house where there is a funeral meal. Do not go to mourn or show sympathy, for I have removed from this people My peace, My loving devotion, and My compassion,” declares the LORD.
Haec 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.
6 “Both great and small will die in this land. They will not be buried or mourned, nor will anyone cut himself or shave his head for them.
Et morientur grandes, et parvi in terra ista: non sepelientur neque plangentur, et non se incident, neque calvitium fiet pro eis.
7 No food will be offered to comfort those who mourn the dead; not even a cup of consolation will be given for the loss of a father or mother.
Et non frangent inter eos lugenti panem ad consolandum super mortuo: et non dabunt eis potum calicis ad consolandum super patre suo et matre.
8 You must not enter a house where there is feasting and sit down with them to eat and drink.
Et domum convivii non ingrediaris, ut sedeas cum eis, et comedas et bibas:
9 For this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: I am going to remove from this place, before your very eyes and in your days, the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom.
quia haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel: Ecce ego auferam de loco isto in oculis vestris, et in diebus vestris vocem gaudii, et vocem laetitiae, vocem sponsi, et vocem sponsae.
10 When you tell these people all these things, they will ask you, ‘Why has the LORD pronounced all this great disaster against us? What is our guilt? What is the sin that we have committed against the LORD our God?’
Et cum annunciaveris populo huic omnia verba haec, et dixerint tibi: Quare locutus est Dominus super nos omne malum grande istud? quae iniquitas nostra? et quod peccatum nostrum, quod peccavimus Domino Deo nostro?
11 Then you are to answer them: ‘It is because your fathers have forsaken Me, declares the LORD, and followed other gods, and served and worshiped them. They abandoned Me and did not keep My instruction.
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.
12 And you have done more evil than your fathers. See how each of you follows the stubbornness of his evil heart instead of obeying Me.
Sed et vos peius operati estis, quam patres vestri: ecce enim ambulat unusquisque post pravitatem cordis sui mali, ut me non audiat.
13 So I will cast you out of this land into a land that neither you nor your fathers have known. There you will serve other gods day and night, for I will show you no favor.’
Et eiiciam 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.
14 Yet behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when they will no longer say, ‘As surely as the LORD lives, who brought the Israelites up out of the land of Egypt.’
Propterea ecce dies veniunt dicit Dominus, et non dicetur ultra: Vivit Dominus, qui eduxit filios Israel de Terra Aegypti,
15 Instead they will say, ‘As surely as the LORD lives, who brought the Israelites up out of the land of the north and all the other lands to which He had banished them.’ For I will return them to their land that I gave to their forefathers.
sed, Vivit Dominus, qui eduxit filios Israel de Terra Aquilonis, et de universis terris, ad quas eieci eos: et reducam eos in terram suam, quam dedi patribus eorum.
16 But for now I will send for many fishermen, declares the LORD, and they will catch them. After that I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt them down on every mountain and hill, even from the clefts of the rocks.
Ecce ego mittam piscatores multos dicit Dominus, et piscabuntur eos: et post haec mittam eis multos venatores, et venabuntur eos de omni monte, et de omni colle, et de cavernis petrarum.
17 For My eyes are on all their ways. They are not hidden from My face, and their guilt is not concealed from My eyes.
Quia oculi mei super omnes vias eorum: non sunt absconditae a facie mea, et non fuit occultata iniquitas eorum ab oculis meis.
18 And I will first repay them double their iniquity and their sin, because they have defiled My land with the carcasses of their detestable idols, and they have filled My inheritance with their abominations.”
Et reddam primum duplices iniquitates, et peccata eorum: quia contaminaverunt terram meam in morticinis idolorum suorum, et abominationibus suis impleverunt hereditatem meam.
19 O LORD, my strength and my fortress, my refuge in the day of distress, the nations will come to You from the ends of the earth, and they will say, “Our fathers inherited nothing but lies, worthless idols of no benefit at all.
Domine fortitudo mea, et robur meum, et refugium meum in die tribulationis: ad te Gentes venient ab extremis terrae, et dicent: Vere mendacium possederunt patres nostri, vanitatem, quae eis non profuit.
20 Can man make gods for himself? Such are not gods!”
Numquid faciet sibi homo deos, et ipsi non sunt dii?
21 “Therefore behold, I will inform them, and this time I will make them know My power and My might; then they will know that My name is the LORD.
Idcirco ecce ego ostendam eis per vicem hanc, ostendam eis manum meam, et virtutem meam: et scient quia nomen mihi Dominus.
