Jeremiah 28

1 And it came about in that year, when Zedekiah first became king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah, the son of Azzur the prophet, who came from Gibeon, said to Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, before the priests and all the people,

Et factum est in anno illo, in principio regni Sedechiae regis Iuda, in anno quarto, in mense quinto, dixit ad me Hananias filius Azur propheta de Gabaon, in domo Domini coram sacerdotibus et omni populo, dicens:

2 These are the words of the Lord of armies, the God of Israel: By me the yoke of the king of Babylon has been broken.

Haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel: Contrivi iugum regis Babylonis.

3 In the space of two years I will send back into this place all the vessels of the Lord's house which Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, took away from this place to Babylon:

Adhuc duo anni dierum, et ego referri faciam ad locum istum omnia vasa domus Domini, quae tulit Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis de loco isto, et transtulit ea in Babylonem.

4 And I will let Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, come back to this place, with all the prisoners of Judah who went to Babylon, says the Lord: for I will have the yoke of the king of Babylon broken.

Et Iechoniam filium Ioakim regem Iuda, et omnem transmigrationem Iuda, qui ingressi sunt in Babylonem, ego convertam ad locum istum, ait Dominus: conteram enim iugum regis Babylonis.

5 Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah, before the priests and all the people who had come into the house of the Lord,

Et dixit Ieremias propheta ad Hananiam prophetam in oculis sacerdotum, et in oculis omnis populi, qui stabat in domo Domini.

6 The prophet Jeremiah said, So be it: may the Lord do so: may the Lord give effect to the words which you have said, and let the vessels of the Lord's house, and all the people who have been taken away, come back from Babylon to this place.

et ait Ieremias propheta: Amen, sic faciat Dominus: suscitet Dominus verba tua, quae prophetasti: ut referantur vasa in domum Domini, et omnis transmigratio de Babylone ad locum istum.

7 But still, give ear to this word which I am saying to you and to all the people:

Verumtamen audi verbum hoc, quod ego loquor in auribus tuis, et in auribus universi populi:

8 The prophets, who were before me and before you, from early times gave word to a number of countries and great kingdoms about war and destruction and disease.

Prophetae, qui fuerunt ante me et ante te ab initio, et prophetaverunt super terras multas, et super regna magna de praelio, et de afflictione, et de fame.

9 The prophet whose words are of peace, when his words come true, will be seen to be a prophet whom the Lord has sent.

Propheta, qui vaticinatus est pacem: cum venerit verbum eius, scietur propheta, quem misit Dominus in veritate.

10 Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from the neck of the prophet Jeremiah and it was broken by his hands.

Et tulit Hananias propheta catenam de collo Ieremiae prophetae, et confregit eam.

11 And before all the people Hananiah said, The Lord has said, Even so will I let the yoke of the king of Babylon be broken off the necks of all the nations in the space of two years. Then the prophet Jeremiah went away.

Et ait Hananias in conspectu omnis populi, dicens: Haec dicit Dominus: Sic confringam iugum Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis post duos annos dierum de collo omnium gentium.

12 Then after the yoke had been broken off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah by Hananiah the prophet, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,

Et abiit Ieremias propheta in viam suam. Et factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam, postquam confregit Hananias propheta catenam de collo Ieremiae prophetae, dicens:

13 Go and say to Hananiah, This is what the Lord has said: Yokes of wood have been broken by you, but in their place I will make yokes of iron.

Vade, et dices Hananiae: Haec dicit Dominus: Catenas ligneas contrivisti: et facies pro eis catenas ferreas.

14 For the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: I have put a yoke of iron on the necks of all these nations, making them servants to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon; and they are to be his servants: and in addition I have given him the beasts of the field.

Quia haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel: Iugum ferreum posui super collum cunctarum Gentium istarum, ut serviant Nabuchodonosor regi Babylonis, et servient ei: insuper et bestias terrae dedi ei.

15 Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, Give ear, now, Hananiah; the Lord has not sent you; but you are making this people put their faith in what is false.

Et dixit Ieremias propheta ad Hananiam prophetam: Audi Hanania: non misit te Dominus, et tu confidere fecisti populum istum in mendacio.

16 For this reason the Lord has said, See, I will send you away from off the face of the earth: this year death will overtake you, because you have said words against the Lord.

Idcirco haec dicit Dominus: Ecce ego mittam te a facie terrae: hoc anno morieris: adversum enim Dominum locutus es.

17 So death came to Hananiah the prophet the same year, in the seventh month.

Et mortuus est Hananias propheta in anno illo, mense septimo.
