< Jeremiah 36 >

1 And in the fourth yeere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, came this word vnto Ieremiah from the Lord, saying,
Et factum est in anno quarto Ioakim filii Iosiae regis Iuda: factum est verbum hoc ad Ieremiam a Domino, dicens:
2 Take thee a roule or booke, and write therein all the wordes that I haue spoken to thee against Israel, and against Iudah, and against all the nations, from the day that I spake vnto thee, euen from the dayes of Iosiah vnto this day.
Tolle volumen libri, et scribes in eo omnia verba, quae locutus sum tibi adversum Israel et Iuda, et adversum omnes gentes: a die, qua locutus sum ad te ex diebus Iosiae usque ad diem hanc:
3 It may bee that the House of Iudah will heare of all the euill, which I determined to doe vnto them that they may returne euery man from his euil way, that I may forgiue their iniquitie and their sinnes.
Si forte audiente domo Iuda universa mala, quae ego cogito facere eis, revertatur unusquisque a via sua pessima: et propitius ero iniquitati, et peccato eorum.
4 Then Ieremiah called Baruch the sonne of Neriah, and Baruch wrote at the mouth of Ieremiah all the wordes of the Lord, which hee had spoken vnto him, vpon a roule or booke.
Vocavit ergo Ieremias Baruch filium Neriae: et scripsit Baruch ex ore Ieremiae omnes sermones Domini, quos locutus est ad eum in volumine libri:
5 And Ieremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut vp, and can not go into the House of the Lord.
et praecepit Ieremias Baruch, dicens: Ego clausus sum, nec valeo ingredi domum Domini.
6 Therefore goe thou, and reade the roule wherein thou hast written at my mouth the words of the Lord in the audience of the people in the Lordes House vpon the fasting day: also thou shalt reade them in the hearing of all Iudah, that come out of their cities.
Ingredere ergo tu, et lege de volumine, in quo scripsisti ex ore meo verba Domini audiente populo in domo Domini in die ieiunii: insuper et audiente universo Iuda, qui veniunt de civitatibus suis, leges eis:
7 It may be that they will pray before the Lord, and euery one returne from his euill way, for great is the anger and the wrath, that the Lord hath declared against this people.
Si forte cadat oratio eorum in conspectu Domini, et revertatur unusquisque a via sua pessima: quoniam magnus furor et indignatio est, quam locutus est Dominus adversus populum hunc.
8 So Baruch the sonne of Neriah did according vnto all, that Ieremiah the Prophet commanded him, reading in the booke the wordes of the Lord in the Lords House.
Et fecit Baruch filius Neriae iuxta omnia, quae praeceperat ei Ieremias propheta, legens ex volumine sermones Domini in domo Domini.
9 And in the fift yeere of Iehoiakim the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, in the ninth moneth, they proclaimed a fast before the Lord to all the people in Ierusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Iudah vnto Ierusalem.
Factum est autem in anno quinto Ioakim filii Iosiae regis Iuda, in mense nono: praedicaverunt ieiunium in conspectu Domini omni populo in Ierusalem, et universae multitudini, quae confluxerat de civitatibus Iuda in Ierusalem.
10 Then read Baruch in the booke the wordes of Ieremiah in the house of the Lord, in the chamber of Gemariah the sonne of Shaphan the secretarie, in the hier court at the entrie of the new gate of the Lordes house, in the hearing of all the people.
Legitque Baruch ex volumine sermones Ieremiae in domo Domini in gazophylacio Gamariae filii Saphan scribae, in vestibulo superiori, in introitu portae novae domus Domini audiente omni populo.
11 When Michaiah the sonne of Gemariah, the sonne of Shaphan had heard out of the booke all the wordes of the Lord,
Cumque audisset Michaeas filius Gamariae filii Saphan omnes sermones Domini ex libro:
12 Then hee went downe to the Kings house into the Chancellours chamber, and loe, all the princes sate there, euen Elishama the Chancellour, and Delaiah the sonne of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the sonne of Achbor, and Gemariah the sonne of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the sonne of Hananiah, and all the princes.
descendit in domum regis ad gazophylacium scribae: et ecce ibi omnes principes sedebant: Elisama scriba, et Dalaias filius Semeiae, et Elnathan filius Achobor, et Gamarias filius Saphan, et Sedechias filius Hananiae, et universi principes.
13 Then Michaiah declared vnto them all the wordes that he had heard when Baruch read in the booke in the audience of the people.
Et nunciavit eis Michaeas omnia verba, quae audivit legente Baruch ex volumine in auribus populi.
14 Therefore all the princes sent Iehudi the sonne of Nethaniah, the sonne of Shelemiah, the sonne of Chushi, vnto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hande the roule, wherein thou hast read in the audience of the people, and come. So Baruch the sonne of Neriah, tooke the roule in his hand, and came vnto them.
Miserunt itaque omnes principes ad Baruch, Iudi filium Nathaniae filii Selemiae, filii Chusi, dicentes: Volumen, ex quo legisti audiente populo, sume in manu tua, et veni. Tulit ergo Baruch filius Neriae volumen in manu sua, et venit ad eos.
15 And they saide vnto him, Sit downe now, and reade it, that we may heare. So Baruch read it in their audience.
Et dixerunt ad eum: Sede, et lege haec in auribus nostris. Et legit Baruch in auribus eorum.
16 Now when they had heard all the wordes, they were afraid both one and other, and said vnto Baruch, We will certifie the King of all these wordes.
Igitur cum audissent omnia verba, obstupuerunt unusquisque ad proximum suum, et dixerunt ad Baruch: Nunciare debemus regi omnes sermones istos.
17 And they examined Baruch, saying, Tell vs nowe, howe diddest thou write all these wordes at his mouth?
Et interrogaverunt eum, dicentes: Indica nobis quomodo scripsisti omnes sermones istos ex ore eius.
18 Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these wordes vnto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ynke in the booke.
Dixit autem eis Baruch: Ex ore suo loquebatur quasi legens ad me omnes sermones istos. et ego scribebam in volumine atramento.
19 Then saide the princes vnto Baruch, Goe, hide thee, thou and Ieremiah, and let no man knowe where ye be.
Et dixerunt principes ad Baruch: Vade, et abscondere tu et Ieremias, et nemo sciat ubi sitis.
20 And they went in to the King to the court, but they layde vp the roule in the chamber of Elishama the Chancellour and tolde the King all the wordes, that he might heare.
Et ingressi sunt ad regem in atrium: porro volumen commendaverunt in gazophylacio Elisamae scribae: et nunciaverunt audiente rege omnes sermones.
21 So the King sent Iehudi to fet the roule, and he tooke it out of Elishama the Chancellours chamber, and Iehudi read it in the audience of the King, and in the audience of all the princes, which stoode beside the King.
Misitque rex Iudi ut sumeret volumen: qui tollens illud de gazophylacio Elisamae scribae, legit audiente rege, et universis principibus, qui stabant circa regem.
22 Nowe the King sate in the winter House, in the ninth moneth, and there was a fire burning before him.
Rex autem sedebat in domo hiemali in mense nono: et posita erat arula coram eo plena prunis.
23 And when Iehudi had read three, or foure sides, hee cut it with the penknife and cast it into the fire, that was on the hearth vntil all the roule was consumed in the fire, that was on the hearth.
Cumque legisset Iudi tres pagellas vel quattuor, scidit illud scalpello scribae, et proiecit in ignem, qui erat super arulam donec consumeretur omne volumen igne, qui erat in arula.
24 Yet they were not afraide, nor rent their garmets, neither the King, nor any of his seruants, that heard all these wordes.
Et non timuerunt, neque sciderunt vestimenta sua rex, et omnes servi eius, qui audierunt universos sermones istos.
25 Neuerthelesse, Elnathan, and Delaiah, and Gemariah had besought the King, that he would not burne ye roule: but he would not heare them.
Verumtamen Elnathan, et Dalaias, et Gamarias contradixerunt regi ne combureret librum: et non audivit eos.
26 But the King commanded Ierahmeel the sonne of Hammelech, and Seraiah the sonne of Azriel, and Shelemiah the sonne of Abdiel, to take Baruch the scribe, and Ieremiah the Prophet, but the Lord hid them.
Et praecepit rex Ieremiel filio Amelech, et Saraiae filio Ezriel, et Selemiae filio Abdeel ut comprehenderent Baruch scribam, et Ieremiam prophetam: abscondit autem eos Dominus.
27 Then the word of the Lord came to Ieremiah (after that the King had burnt the roule and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Ieremiah) saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam prophetam, postquam combusserat rex volumen et sermones, quos scripserat Baruch ex ore Ieremiae, dicens:
28 Take thee againe another roule and write in it all ye former words that were in the first roule which Iehoiakim the King of Iudah hath burnt,
Rursum tolle volumen aliud: et scribe in eo omnes sermones priores, qui erant in primo volumine, quod combussit Ioakim rex Iuda.
29 And thou shalt say to Iehoiakim King of Iudah, Thus saith the Lord, Thou hast burnt this roule, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, that the King of Babel shall certainly come and destroye this land, and shall take thence both man and beast?
Et ad Ioakim regem Iuda, dices: Haec dicit Dominus: Tu combussisti volumen illud, dicens: Quare scripsisti in eo annuncians: Festinus veniet rex Babylonis, et vastabit terram hanc, et cessare faciet ex illa hominem, et iumentum?
30 Therefore thus saith the Lord of Iehoiakim King of Iudah, Hee shall haue none to sit vpon the throne of Dauid, and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heate, and in the night to the frost.
Propterea haec dicit Dominus contra Ioakim regem Iuda: Non erit ex eo qui sedeat super solium David: et cadaver eius proiicietur ad aestum per diem, et ad gelu per noctem.
31 And I will visite him and his seede, and his seruants for their iniquitie, and I will bring vpon them, and vpon the inhabitants of Ierusalem, and vpon the men of Iudah all the euil that I haue pronounced against them: but they would not heare.
Et visitabo contra eum, et contra semen eius, et contra servos eius iniquitates suas, et adducam super eos et super habitatores Ierusalem, et super viros Iuda omne malum, quod locutus sum ad eos, et non audierunt.
32 Then tooke Ieremiah another roule, and gaue it Baruch the scribe the sonne of Neriah, which wrote therein at the mouth of Ieremiah all the wordes of the booke which Iehoiakim King of Iudah had burnt in the fire, and there were added besides them many like wordes.
Ieremias autem tulit volumen aliud, et dedit illud Baruch filio Neriae scribae: qui scripsit in eo ex ore Ieremiae omnes sermones libri, quem combusserat Ioakim rex Iuda igni: et insuper additi sunt sermones multo plures, quam antea fuerant.
