Jeremiah 1
1 The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:
Verba Ieremiae filii Helciae, de sacerdotibus, qui fuerunt in Anathoth, in Terra Beniamin.
2 To whom the word of the LORD came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.
Quod factum est verbum Domini ad eum in diebus Iosiae filii Amon regis Iuda, in tertiodecimo anno regni eius.
3 It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, to the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of Judah, to the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.
Et factum est in diebus Ioakim filii Iosiae regis Iuda, usque ad consummationem undecimi anni Sedeciae filii Iosiae regis Iuda, usque ad transmigrationem Ierusalem, in mense quinto.
4 Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
5 Before I formed you in the belly I knew you; and before you came forth out of the womb I sanctified you, and I ordained you a prophet to the nations.
Priusquam te formarem in utero, novi te: et antequam exires de vulva, sanctificavi te, et prophetam in Gentibus dedi te.
6 Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child.
Et dixi, A a a, Domine Deus: ecce nescio loqui, quia puer ego sum.
7 But the LORD said to me, Say not, I am a child: for you shall go to all that I shall send you, and whatever I command you you shall speak.
Et dixit Dominus ad me: Noli dicere: Puer sum: quoniam ad omnia, quae mittam te, ibis: et universa, quaecumque mandavero tibi, loqueris.
8 Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with you to deliver you, says the LORD.
Ne timeas a facie eorum: quia tecum ego sum ut eruam te, dicit Dominus.
9 Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said to me, Behold, I have put my words in your mouth.
Et misit Dominus manum suam, et tetigit os meum: et dixit Dominus ad me: Ecce dedi verba mea in ore tuo:
10 See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.
ecce constitui te hodie super Gentes, et super regna ut evellas, et destruas, et disperdas, et dissipes, et aedifices, et plantes.
11 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Jeremiah, what see you? And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree.
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens: Quid tu vides Ieremia? Et dixi: Virgam vigilantem ego video.
12 Then said the LORD to me, You have well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it.
Et dixit Dominus ad me: Bene vidisti, quia vigilabo ego super verbo meo ut faciam illud.
13 And the word of the LORD came to me the second time, saying, What see you? And I said, I see a seething pot; and the face thereof is toward the north.
Et factum est verbum Domini secundo ad me, dicens: Quid tu vides? Et dixi: Ollam succensam ego video, et faciem eius a facie Aquilonis.
14 Then the LORD said to me, Out of the north an evil shall break forth on all the inhabitants of the land.
Et dixit Dominus ad me: Ab Aquilone pandetur omne malum super omnes habitatores terrae.
15 For, see, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, says the LORD; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entering of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of Judah.
quia ecce ego convocabo omnes cognationes regnorum Aquilonis, ait Dominus: et venient et ponent unusquisque solium suum in introitu portarum Ierusalem, et super omnes muros eius in circuitu, et super universas urbes Iuda.
16 And I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands.
Et loquar iudicia mea cum eis super omnem malitiam eorum, qui dereliquerunt me, et libaverunt diis alienis, et adoraverunt opus manuum suarum.
17 You therefore gird up your loins, and arise, and speak to them all that I command you: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound you before them.
Tu ergo accinge lumbos tuos, et surge, et loquere ad eos omnia quae ego praecipio tibi. Ne formides a facie eorum: nec enim timere te faciam vultum eorum.
18 For, behold, I have made you this day a defended city, and an iron pillar, and brazen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land.
Ego quippe dedi te hodie in civitatem munitam, et in columnam ferream, et in murum aereum, super omnem terram, regibus Iuda, principibus eius, et sacerdotibus, et populo terrae.
19 And they shall fight against you; but they shall not prevail against you; for I am with you, says the LORD, to deliver you.
Et bellabunt adversum te, et non praevalebunt: quia ego tecum sum, ait Dominus, ut liberem te.
