< Jeremiah 20 >

1 Now Pashur the son of Immer the priest, who [was] also chief governor in the house of the LORD, heard that Jeremiah prophesied these things.
Et audivit Phassur filius Emmer sacerdos, qui constitutus erat princeps in domo Domini, Ieremiam prophetantem sermones istos.
2 Then Pashur smote Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that [were] in the high gate of Benjamin, which [was] by the house of the LORD.
Et percussit Phassur Ieremiam prophetam, et misit eum in nervum, quod erat in porta Beniamin superiori, in domo Domini.
3 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Pashur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then said Jeremiah unto him, The LORD hath not called thy name Pashur, but Magor-missabib.
Cumque illuxisset in crastinum, eduxit Phassur Ieremiam de nervo. et dixit ad eum Ieremias: Non Phassur vocavit Dominus nomen tuum, sed pavorem undique.
4 For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will make thee a terror to thyself, and to all thy friends: and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and thine eyes shall behold [it: ] and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive into Babylon, and shall slay them with the sword.
Quia haec dicit Dominus: Ecce ego dabo te in pavorem, te et omnes amicos tuos: et corruent gladio inimicorum suorum, et oculi tui videbunt: et omnem Iudam dabo in manum regis Babylonis: et traducet eos in Babylonem, et percutiet eos gladio.
5 Moreover I will deliver all the strength of this city, and all the labours thereof, and all the precious things thereof, and all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies, which shall spoil them, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.
Et dabo universam substantiam civitatis huius, et omnem laborem eius, omneque pretium, et cunctos thesauros regum Iuda dabo in manu inimicorum eorum: et diripient eos, et tollent, et ducent in Babylonem.
6 And thou, Pashur, and all that dwell in thine house shall go into captivity: and thou shalt come to Babylon, and there thou shalt die, and shalt be buried there, thou, and all thy friends, to whom thou hast prophesied lies.
Tu autem Phassur, et omnes habitatores domus tuae ibitis in captivitatem: et in Babylonem tu venies, et ibi morieris, ibique sepelieris tu, et omnes amici tui, quibus prophetasti mendacium.
7 O LORD, thou hast deceived me, and I was deceived: thou art stronger than I, and hast prevailed: I am in derision daily, every one mocketh me.
Seduxisti me Domine, et seductus sum: fortior me fuisti, et invaluisti: factus sum in derisum tota die, omnes subsannant me.
8 For since I spake, I cried out, I cried violence and spoil; because the word of the LORD was made a reproach unto me, and a derision, daily.
Quia iam olim loquor, vociferans iniquitatem, et vastitatem clamito: et factus est mihi sermo Domini in opprobrium, et in derisum tota die.
9 Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But [his word] was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not [stay].
Et dixi: Non recordabor eius, neque loquar ultra in nomine illius: et factus est in corde meo quasi ignis exaestuans, claususque in ossibus meis: et defeci, ferre non sustinens.
10 For I heard the defaming of many, fear on every side. Report, [say they], and we will report it. All my familiars watched for my halting, [saying], Peradventure he will be enticed, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.
Audivi enim contumelias multorum, et terrorem in circuitu: Persequimini, et persequamur eum: ab omnibus viris, qui erant pacifici mei, et custodientes latus meum: si quo modo decipiatur, et praevaleamus adversus eum, et consequamur ultionem ex eo.
11 But the LORD [is] with me as a mighty terrible one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail: they shall be greatly ashamed; for they shall not prosper: [their] everlasting confusion shall never be forgotten.
Dominus autem mecum est quasi bellator fortis: idcirco qui persequuntur me, cadent, et infirmi erunt: confundentur vehementer, quia non intellexerunt opprobrium sempiternum, quod numquam delebitur.
12 But, O LORD of hosts, that triest the righteous, [and] seest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them: for unto thee have I opened my cause.
Et tu Domine exercituum probator iusti, qui vides renes et cor: videam quaeso ultionem tuam ex eis: tibi enim revelavi causam meam.
13 Sing unto the LORD, praise ye the LORD: for he hath delivered the soul of the poor from the hand of evildoers.
Cantate Domino, laudate Dominum: quia liberavit animam pauperis de manu malorum.
14 Cursed [be] the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed.
Maledicta dies, in qua natus sum: dies, in qua peperit me mater mea, non sit benedicta.
15 Cursed [be] the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man child is born unto thee; making him very glad.
Maledictus vir, qui nunciavit patri meo, dicens: Natus est tibi puer masculus: et quasi gaudio laetificavit eum.
16 And let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and repented not: and let him hear the cry in the morning, and the shouting at noontide;
Sit homo ille ut sunt civitates, quae subvertit Dominus, et non poenituit eum: audiat clamorem mane, et ululatum in tempore meridiano:
17 Because he slew me not from the womb; or that my mother might have been my grave, and her womb [to be] always great [with me].
quia non me interfecit a vulva, ut fieret mihi mater mea sepulchrum, et vulva eius conceptus aeternus.
18 Wherefore came I forth out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
Quare de vulva egressus sum, ut viderem laborem et dolorem, et consumerentur in confusione dies mei?
