Jeremiah 25

1 The word that came to Ieremiah, concerning all the people of Iudah in the fourth yeere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah that was in the first yeere of Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel:

Verbum, quod factum est ad Ieremiam de omni populo Iuda in anno quarto Ioakim filii Iosiæ regis Iuda, (ipse est annus primus Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis.)

2 The which Ieremiah the Prophet spake vnto all the people of Iudah, and to all the inhabitants of Ierusalem, saying,

Quod locutus est Ieremias propheta ad omnem populum Iuda, et ad universos habitatores Ierusalem, dicens:

3 From the thirteenth yeere of Iosiah the sonne of Amon King of Iudah, euen vnto this day (that is the three and twentieth yeere) the word of the Lord hath come vnto mee, and I haue spoken vnto you rising earely and speaking, but ye woulde not heare.

A tertiodecimo anno Iosiæ filii Amon regis Iuda usque ad diem hanc; iste tertius et vigesimus annus, factum est verbum Domini ad me, et locutus sum ad vos de nocte consurgens, et loquens, et non audistis.

4 And the Lord hath sent vnto you all his seruantes the Prophets, rising early and sending them, but yee would not heare, nor encline your eares to obey.

Et misit Dominus ad vos omnes servos suos prophetas, consurgens diluculo, mittensque et non audistis, neque inclinastis aures vestras ut audiretis

5 They sayde, Turne againe now euery one from his euill way, and from the wickednes of your inuentions, and ye shall dwell in the lande that the Lord hath giuen vnto you, and to your fathers for euer and euer.

cum diceret: Revertimini unusquisque a via sua mala, et a pessimis cogitationibus vestris: et habitabitis in terra, quam dedit Dominus vobis, et patribus vestris a sæculo et usque in sæculum.

6 And go not after other gods to serue them and to worshippe them, and prouoke me not to anger with the workes of your hands, and I will not punish you.

Et nolite ire post deos alienos ut serviatis eis, adoretisque eos: neque me ad iracundiam provocetis in operibus manuum vestrarum, et non affligam vos.

7 Neuerthelesse ye would not heare me, saith the Lord, but haue prouoked mee to anger with the workes of your hands to your owne hurt.

Et non audistis me, dicit Dominus, ut me ad iracundiam provocaretis in operibus manuum vestrarum in malum vestrum.

8 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hostes, Because ye haue not heard my wordes,

Propterea hæc dicit Dominus exercituum: Pro eo quod non audistis verba mea:

9 Beholde, I will send and take to mee all the families of the North, saith the Lord, and Nebuchad-nezzar the King of Babel my seruant, and will bring them against this lande, and against the inhabitantes thereof, and against all these nations rounde about, and will destroy them, and make them an astonishment and an hissing, and a continuall desolation.

ecce ego mittam, et assumam universas cognationes Aquilonis, ait Dominus, et Nabuchodonosor regem Babylonis servum meum: et adducam eos super terram istam, et super habitatores eius, et super omnes nationes, quæ in circuitu illius sunt: et interficiam eos, et ponam eos in stuporem et in sibilum, et in solitudines sempiternas.

10 Moreouer I will take from them the voyce of mirth and the voyce of gladnesse, the voyce of the bridegrome and the voyce of the bride, the noise of the milstones, and the light of the candle.

Perdamque ex eis vocem gaudii et vocem lætitiæ, vocem sponsi, et vocem sponsæ, vocem molæ, et lumen lucernæ.

11 And this whole land shalbe desolate, and an astonishment, and these nations shall serue the King of Babel seuentie yeeres.

Et erit universa terra hæc in solitudinem, et in stuporem: et servient omnes gentes istæ regi Babylonis septuaginta annis.

12 And when the seuentie yeres are accomplished, I will visite the King of Babel and that nation, saith the Lord, for their iniquities, euen the land of the Caldeans, and will make it a perpetuall desolation,

Cumque impleti fuerint septuaginta anni, visitabo super regem Babylonis, et super gentem illam, dicit Dominus, iniquitatem eorum, et super terram Chaldæorum: et ponam illam in solitudines sempiternas.

13 And I will bring vpon that lande all my wordes which I haue pronounced against it, euen all that is written in this booke, which Ieremiah hath prophecied against all nations.

Et adducam super terram illam, omnia verba mea, quæ locutus sum contra eam, omne quod scriptum est in libro isto, quæcumque prophetavit Ieremias adversum omnes gentes:

14 For many nations, and great Kings shall euen serue themselues of them: thus will I recompense them according to their deedes, and according to the workes of their owne handes.

Quia servierunt eis cum essent gentes multæ, et reges magni: et reddam eis secundum opera eorum, et secundum facta manuum suarum.

15 For thus hath the Lord God of Israel spoken vnto me, Take the cuppe of wine of this mine indignation at mine hand, and cause all the nations, to whome I sende thee, to drinke it.

Quia sic dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel: Sume calicem vini furoris huius de manu mea: et propinabis de illo cunctis gentibus, ad quas ego mittam te.

16 And they shall drinke, and be moued and be mad, because of the sworde that I will sende among them.

Et bibent, et turbabuntur, et insanient a facie gladii, quem ego mittam inter eos.

17 Then tooke I the cup at the Lordes hand, and made all people to drinke, vnto whome the Lord had sent me:

Et accepi calicem de manu Domini, et propinavi cunctis gentibus, ad quas misit me Dominus:

18 Euen Ierusalem, and the cities of Iudah, and the Kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them desolate, an astonishment, an hissing, and a curse, as appeareth this day:

Ierusalem, et civitatibus Iuda, et regibus eius, et principibus eius: ut darem eos in solitudinem, et in stuporem, et in sibilum, et in maledictionem, sicut est dies ista:

19 Pharaoh also, King of Egypt, and his seruants, and his princes, and all his people:

Pharaoni regi Ægypti, et servis eius, et principibus eius, et omni populo eius,

20 And all sortes of people, and all the Kings of the lande of Vz: and all the Kings of the lande of the Philistims, and Ashkelon, and Azzah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod:

et universis generaliter: cunctis regibus terræ Ausitidis, et cunctis regibus terræ Philisthiim, et Ascaloni, et Gazæ, et Accaron, et reliquiis Azoti,

21 Edom, and Moab, and the Ammonites,

et Idumææ, et Moab, et filiis Ammon:

22 And all the Kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of Zidon, and the Kings of the Yles, that are beyonde the Sea,

Et cunctis regibus Tyri, et universis regibus Sidonis: et regibus terræ insularum, qui sunt trans mare.

23 And Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that dwell in the vttermost corners,

Et Dedan, et Thema, et Buz, et universis qui attonsi sunt in comam.

24 And all the Kings of Arabia, and all the Kings of Arabia, that dwell in the desert,

Et cunctis regibus Arabiæ, et cunctis regibus Occidentis, qui habitant in deserto.

25 And all the Kings of Zimri, and all the Kings of Elam, and all the Kings of the Medes,

Et cunctis regibus Zambri, et cunctis regibus Elam, et cunctis regibus Medorum:

26 And all the Kings of the North, farre and neere one to another, and all the kingdomes of the worlde, which are vpon the earth, and the king of Sheshach shall drinke after them.

cunctis quoque regibus Aquilonis de prope et de longe, unicuique contra fratrem suum: et omnibus regnis terræ, quæ super faciem eius sunt: et rex Sesach bibet post eos.

27 Therefore say thou vnto them, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Drinke and bee drunken, and spewe and fall, and rise no more, because of the sworde, which I will sende among you.

et dices ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel: Bibite, et inebriamini, et vomite: et cadite, neque surgatis a facie gladii, quem ego mittam inter vos.

28 But if they refuse to take the cuppe at thine hande to drinke, then tell them, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Ye shall certainely drinke.

Cumque noluerint accipere calicem de manu tua ut bibant, dices ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum: Bibentes bibetis:

29 For loe, I beginne to plague the citie, where my Name is called vpon, and shoulde you goe free? Ye shall not goe quite: for I will call for a sword vpon al the inhabitants of the earth, saith the Lord of hostes.

quia ecce in civitate, in qua invocatum est nomen meum, ego incipiam affligere, et vos quasi innocentes et immunes eritis? non eritis immunes: gladium enim ego voco super omnes habitatores terræ, dicit Dominus exercituum.

30 Therefore prophecie thou against them al these words, and say vnto them, The Lord shall roare from aboue, and thrust out his voyce from his holy habitation: he shall roare vpon his habitation, and crie aloude, as they that presse the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.

Et tu prophetabis ad eos omnia verba hæc, et dices ad illos: Dominus de excelso rugiet, et de habitaculo sancto suo dabit vocem suam: rugiens rugiet super decorem suum: celeuma quasi calcantium concinetur adversus omnes habitatores terræ.

31 The sounde shall come to the endes of the earth: for the Lord hath a controuersie with the nations, and will enter into iudgement with all flesh, and he will giue them that are wicked, to the sworde, saith the Lord.

Pervenit sonitus usque ad extrema terræ: quia iudicium Domino cum gentibus: iudicatur ipse cum omni carne, impios tradidi gladio, dicit Dominus.

32 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, Behold, a plague shall goe foorth from nation to nation, and a great whirlewinde shalbe raised vp from the coastes of the earth,

Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum: Ecce afflictio egredietur de gente in gentem: et turbo magnus egredietur a summitatibus terræ.

33 And the slaine of the Lord shall be at that day, from one ende of the earth, euen vnto the other ende of the earth: they shall not bee mourned, neither gathered nor buried, but shalbe as the dongue vpon the grounde.

Et erunt interfecti Domini in die illa a summo terræ usque ad summum eius: non plangentur, et non colligentur, neque sepelientur: in sterquilinium super faciem terræ iacebunt.

34 Howle, ye shepherdes, and crie, and wallowe your selues in the ashes, ye principall of the flocke: for your dayes of slaughter are accomplished, and of your dispersion, and ye shall fall like precious vessels.

Ululate pastores, et clamate: et aspergite vos cinere optimates gregis: quia completi sunt dies vestri ut interficiamini: et dissipationes vestræ, et cadetis quasi vasa pretiosa.

35 And the flight shall faile from the shepherdes, and the escaping from the principall of the flocke.

Et peribit fuga a pastoribus, et salvatio ab optimatibus gregis.

36 A voyce of the crye of the shepherdes, and an howling of the principall of the flocke shalbe heard: for the Lord hath destroyed their pasture.

Vox clamoris pastorum, et ululatus optimatum gregis: quia vastavit Dominus pascua eorum.

37 And the best pastures are destroyed because of the wrath and indignation of the Lord.

Et conticuerunt arva pacis a facie iræ furoris Domini.

38 He hath forsaken his couert, as the lyon: for their land is waste, because of the wrath of the oppressor, and because of ye wrath of his indignatio.

Dereliquit quasi leo umbraculum suum, quia facta est terra eorum in desolationem a facie iræ columbæ, et a facie iræ furoris Domini.
