Jeremiah 49
1 Concerning the children of Ammon. Thus saith Jehovah: Hath Israel no sons? hath he no heir? Why is Malcam heir of Gad, and his people dwell in the cities thereof?
ad filios Ammon haec dicit Dominus numquid filii non sunt Israhel aut heres non est ei cur igitur hereditate possedit Melchom Gad et populus eius in urbibus eius habitavit
2 Therefore behold, days come, saith Jehovah, that I will cause the clamour of war to be heard in Rabbah of the children of Ammon; and it shall be a desolate heap; and her towns shall be burned with fire; and Israel shall possess them that possessed him, saith Jehovah.
ideo ecce dies veniunt dicit Dominus et auditum faciam super Rabbath filiorum Ammon fremitum proelii et erit in tumulum dissipata filiaeque eius igni succendentur et possidebit Israhel possessores suos dicit Dominus
3 Howl, Heshbon! for Ai is laid waste; cry, daughters of Rabbah, gird you with sackcloth, lament and run to and fro within the enclosures: for Malcam shall go into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
ulula Esebon quoniam vastata est Ahi clamate filiae Rabbath accingite vos ciliciis plangite et circuite per sepes quia Melchom in transmigratione ducetur sacerdotes eius et principes eius simul
4 Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleys? Thy valley shall flow down, O backsliding daughter, that trusteth in her treasures, [saying, ] Who shall come against me?
quid gloriaris in vallibus defluxit vallis tua filia delicata quae confidebas in thesauris tuis et dicebas quis veniet ad me
5 Behold, I will bring a fear upon thee, saith the Lord Jehovah of hosts, from all that are about thee; and ye shall be driven out every man right forth; and none shall assemble the fugitives.
ecce ego inducam super te terrorem ait Dominus Deus exercituum ab omnibus qui sunt in circuitu tuo et dispergemini singuli a conspectu vestro nec erit qui congreget fugientem
6 And afterwards I will turn the captivity of the children of Ammon, saith Jehovah.
et post haec reverti faciam captivos filiorum Ammon ait Dominus
7 Concerning Edom. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Is there no more wisdom in Teman? is counsel perished from the prudent? is their wisdom spent?
ad Idumeam haec dicit Dominus exercituum numquid non est ultra sapientia in Theman periit consilium a filiis inutilis facta est sapientia eorum
8 Flee, turn back, dwell deep down, ye inhabitants of Dedan! For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time that I visit him.
fugite terga vertite descendite in voragine habitatores Dedan quoniam perditionem Esau adduxi super eum tempus visitationis eius
9 If grape-gatherers had come to thee, would they not have left a gleaning? If thieves by night, they would destroy only till they had enough.
si vindemiatores venissent super te non reliquissent racemum si fures in nocte rapuissent quod sufficeret sibi
10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, that he is unable to hide himself: his seed is wasted, and his brethren, and his neighbours, and he is not.
ego vero discoperui Esau revelavi abscondita eius et celari non poterit vastatum est semen eius et fratres eius et vicini eius et non erit
11 Leave thine orphans, I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in me.
relinque pupillos tuos ego eos faciam vivere et viduae tuae in me sperabunt
12 For thus saith Jehovah: Behold, they whose judgment was not to drink of the cup shall assuredly drink; and thou indeed, shouldest thou be altogether unpunished? Thou shalt not go unpunished, but thou shalt surely drink.
quia haec dicit Dominus ecce quibus non erat iudicium ut biberent calicem bibentes bibent et tu quasi innocens relinqueris non eris innocens sed bibens bibes
13 For I have sworn by myself, saith Jehovah, that Bozrah shall become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all the cities thereof shall be perpetual wastes.
quia per memet ipsum iuravi dicit Dominus quod in solitudinem et in obprobrium et in desertum et in maledictionem erit Bosra et omnes civitates eius erunt in solitudines sempiternas
14 I have heard a rumour from Jehovah, and an ambassador is sent among the nations: — Gather yourselves together, and come against her and rise up for the battle.
auditum audivi a Domino et legatus ad gentes missus est congregamini et venite contra eam et consurgamus in proelium
15 For behold, I have made thee small among the nations, despised among men.
ecce enim parvulum dedi te in gentibus contemptibilem inter homines
16 Thy terribleness, the pride of thy heart, hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest the height of the hill. Though thou shouldest make thy nest high as the eagle, I will bring thee down from thence, saith Jehovah.
arrogantia tua decepit te et superbia cordis tui qui habitas in cavernis petrae et adprehendere niteris altitudinem collis cum exaltaveris quasi aquila nidum tuum inde detraham te dicit Dominus
17 And Edom shall be an astonishment: every one that goeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss, because of all the plagues thereof.
et erit Idumea deserta omnis qui transibit per eam stupebit et sibilabit super omnes plagas eius
18 As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, and their neighbour cities, saith Jehovah, no one shall dwell there, neither shall a son of man sojourn therein.
sicuti subversa est Sodoma et Gomorra et vicinae eius ait Dominus non habitabit ibi vir et non incolet eam filius hominis
19 Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of the Jordan against the strong habitation; for I will make them suddenly run away from it; and who is a chosen [man] whom I shall appoint over her? For who is like me? and who will assign me a time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before me?
ecce quasi leo ascendet de superbia Iordanis ad pulchritudinem robustam quia subito currere eum faciam ad illam et quis erit electus quem praeponam ei quis enim similis mei et quis sustinebit me et quis est iste pastor qui resistat vultui meo
20 Therefore hear the counsel of Jehovah, which he hath taken against Edom, and his purposes which he hath purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: The little ones of the flock shall certainly draw them away; he shall certainly make their habitation desolate for them.
propterea audite consilium Domini quod iniit de Edom et cogitationes eius quas cogitavit de habitatoribus Theman si non deiecerint eos parvuli gregis nisi dissipaverint cum eis habitaculum eorum
21 The earth quaketh at the sound of their fall; there is a cry, the sound whereof is heard in the Red sea.
a voce ruinae eorum commota est terra clamor in mari Rubro auditus est vocis eius
22 Behold, he shall come up, and fly as an eagle, and spread forth his wings against Bozrah; and at that day the heart of the mighty men of Edom shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
ecce quasi aquila ascendet et evolabit et expandet alas suas super Bosram et erit cor fortium Idumeae in die illa quasi cor mulieris parturientis
23 Concerning Damascus. Hamath is put to shame, and Arpad; for they have heard evil tidings, they are melted away: there is distress on the sea; it cannot be quiet.
ad Damascum confusa est Emath et Arfad quia auditum pessimum audierunt turbati sunt in mari sollicitudine quiescere non potuit
24 Damascus is grown feeble: she turneth herself to flee, and terror hath seized on her; trouble and sorrows have taken hold of her as of a woman in travail.
dissoluta est Damascus versa in fugam tremor adprehendit eam angustia et dolores tenuerunt eam quasi parturientem
25 How is not the town of praise forsaken, the city of my joy!
quomodo dereliquerunt civitatem laudabilem urbem laetitiae
26 Therefore shall her young men fall in her streets, and all the men of war be cut off in that day, saith Jehovah of hosts.
ideo cadent iuvenes eius in plateis eius et omnes viri proelii conticescent in die illa ait Dominus exercituum
27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of Ben-Hadad.
et succendam ignem in muro Damasci et devorabit moenia Benadad
28 Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote. Thus saith Jehovah: Arise, go up to Kedar, and spoil the men of the east.
ad Cedar et ad regna Asor quae percussit Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis haec dicit Dominus surgite ascendite ad Cedar et vastate filios orientis
29 Their tents and their flocks shall they take; their curtains and all their vessels, and their camels, shall they carry away for themselves; and they shall cry unto them, Terror on every side!
tabernacula eorum et greges eorum capient pelles eorum et omnia vasa eorum et camelos eorum tollent sibi et vocabunt super eos formidinem in circuitu
30 Flee, wander very far, dwell deep down, ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith Jehovah; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a purpose against you.
fugite abite vehementer in voraginibus sedete qui habitatis Asor ait Dominus iniit enim contra vos Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis consilium et cogitavit adversum vos cogitationes
31 Arise, get you up against the nation at ease, that dwelleth securely, saith Jehovah, which hath neither gates nor bars: they dwell alone.
consurgite et ascendite ad gentem quietam et habitantem confidenter ait Dominus non ostia non vectes ei soli habitant
32 And their camels shall be a booty, and the multitude of their cattle a spoil; and I will scatter to every wind them that have the corners [of their beard] cut off, and I will bring their calamity from all sides thereof, saith Jehovah.
et erunt cameli eorum in direptionem et multitudo iumentorum in praedam et dispergam eos in omnem ventum qui sunt adtonsi in comam et ex omni confinio eorum adducam interitum super eos ait Dominus
33 And Hazor shall be a dwelling-place of jackals, a desolation for ever. No one shall dwell there, neither shall a son of man sojourn therein.
et erit Asor in habitaculum draconum deserta usque in aeternum non manebit ibi vir nec incolet eam filius hominis
34 The word of Jehovah that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
quod factum est verbum Domini ad Hieremiam prophetam adversus Aelam in principio regni Sedeciae regis Iuda dicens
35 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
haec dicit Dominus exercituum ecce ego confringam arcum Aelam summam fortitudinem eorum
36 And upon Elam will I bring the four winds, from the four ends of the heavens, and I will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come.
et inducam super Aelam quattuor ventos a quattuor plagis caeli et ventilabo eos in omnes ventos istos et non erit gens ad quam non perveniant profugi Aelam
37 And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon them, my fierce anger, saith Jehovah; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them.
et pavere faciam Aelam coram inimicis suis et in conspectu quaerentium animam eorum et adducam super eos malum iram furoris mei dicit Dominus et emittam post eos gladium donec consumam eos
38 And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence king and princes, saith Jehovah.
et ponam solium meum in Aelam et perdam inde reges et principes ait Dominus
39 But it shall come to pass at the end of the days, I will turn the captivity of Elam, saith Jehovah.
in novissimis autem diebus reverti faciam captivos Aelam dicit Dominus
