< 1 Kings 13 >

1 And behold, a man of God has come from Judah, by the word of YHWH, to Beth-El, and Jeroboam is standing by the altar—to make incense;
Et ecce vir Dei venit de Iuda in sermone Domini in Bethel, Ieroboam stante super altare, et thus iaciente.
2 and he calls against the altar, by the word of YHWH, and says, “Altar! Altar! Thus said YHWH: Behold, a son is born to the house of David—Josiah [is] his name—and he has sacrificed on you the priests of the high places who are making incense on you, and bones of man are burned on you.”
Et exclamavit contra altare in sermone Domini, et ait: Altare, altare, hæc dicit Dominus: Ecce filius nascetur domui David, Iosias nomine, et immolabit super te sacerdotes excelsorum, qui nunc in te thura succendunt, et ossa hominum super te incendet.
3 And he has given a sign on that day, saying, “This [is] the sign that YHWH has spoken, Behold, the altar is torn, and the ashes that [are] on it [are] poured forth.”
Deditque in illa die signum, dicens: Hoc erit signum quod locutus est Dominus: Ecce altare scindetur, et effundetur cinis qui in eo est.
4 And it comes to pass, at the king’s hearing the word of the man of God that he calls against the altar in Beth-El, that Jeroboam puts forth his hand from off the altar, saying, “Catch him”; and his hand that he has put forth against him is dried up, and he is not able to bring it back to himself,
Cumque audisset rex sermonem hominis Dei, quem inclamaverat contra altare in Bethel, extendit manum suam de altari, dicens: Apprehendite eum. Et exaruit manus eius, quam extenderat contra eum: nec valuit retrahere eam ad se.
5 and the altar is torn, and the ashes [are] poured forth from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of YHWH.
Altare quoque scissum est, et effusus est cinis de altari, iuxta signum quod prædixerat vir Dei in sermone Domini.
6 And the king answers and says to the man of God, “Please appease the face of your God YHWH, and pray for me, and my hand comes back to me”; and the man of God appeases the face of YHWH, and the hand of the king comes back to him, and it is as at the beginning.
Et ait rex ad virum Dei: Deprecare faciem Domini Dei tui, et ora pro me, ut restituatur manus mea mihi. Oravitque vir Dei faciem Domini, et reversa est manus regis ad eum, et facta est sicut prius fuerat.
7 And the king speaks to the man of God, “Come in with me to the house, and refresh yourself, and I give a gift to you.”
Locutus est autem rex ad virum Dei: Veni mecum domum ut prandeas, et dabo tibi munera.
8 And the man of God says to the king, “If you give to me the half of your house, I do not go in with you, nor do I eat bread, nor do I drink water, in this place;
Responditque vir Dei ad regem: Si dederis mihi mediam partem domus tuæ, non veniam tecum, nec comedam panem, neque bibam aquam in loco isto:
9 for so He commanded me by the word of YHWH, saying, You do not eat bread nor drink water, nor return in the way that you have come.”
sic enim mandatum est mihi in sermone Domini præcipientis: Non comedes panem, neque bibes aquam, nec reverteris per viam qua venisti.
10 And he goes on in another way, and has not turned back in the way in which he came in to Beth-El.
Abiit ergo per aliam viam, et non est reversus per iter, quo venerat in Bethel.
11 And a certain aged prophet is dwelling in Beth-El, and his son comes and recounts to him every deed that the man of God has done today in Beth-El, the words that he has spoken to the king—indeed, they recount them to their father.
Prophetes autem quidam senex habitabat in Bethel, ad quem venerunt filii sui, et narraverunt ei omnia opera, quæ fecerat vir Dei illa die in Bethel: et verba quæ locutus fuerat ad regem, narraverunt patri suo.
12 And their father says to them, “Where [is] this—the way he has gone?” And his sons see the way that the man of God who came from Judah has gone.
Et dixit eis pater eorum: Per quam viam abiit? Ostenderunt ei filii sui viam, per quam abierat vir Dei, qui venerat de Iuda.
13 And he says to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me,” and they saddle the donkey for him, and he rides on it,
Et ait filiis suis: Sternite mihi asinum. Qui cum stravissent, ascendit,
14 and goes after the man of God, and finds him sitting under the oak, and says to him, “Are you the man of God who has come from Judah?” And he says, “I [am].”
et abiit post virum Dei, et invenit eum sedentem subtus terebinthum: et ait illi: Tune es vir Dei qui venisti de Iuda? Respondit ille: Ego sum.
15 And he says to him, “Come with me to the house and eat bread.”
Dixitque ad eum: Veni mecum domum, ut comedas panem.
16 And he says, “I am not able to return with you, and to go in with you, nor do I eat bread or drink water with you in this place,
Qui ait: Non possum reverti, neque venire tecum, nec comedam panem, neque bibam aquam in loco isto:
17 for [there is] a word to me by the word of YHWH, You do not eat bread nor drink water there [and] you do not return to go in the way in which you came.”
quia locutus est Dominus ad me in sermone Domini, dicens: Non comedes panem, et non bibes aquam ibi, nec reverteris per viam, qua ieris.
18 And he says to him, “I [am] also a prophet like you, and a messenger spoke to me by the word of YHWH, saying, Bring him back with you to your house, and he eats bread and drinks water.” He has lied to him.
Qui ait illi: Et ego propheta sum similis tui: et angelus locutus est mihi in sermone Domini, dicens: Reduc eum tecum in domum tuam, ut comedat panem, et bibat aquam. Fefellit eum,
19 And he turns back with him, and eats bread in his house, and drinks water.
et reduxit secum: comedit ergo panem in domo eius, et bibit aquam.
20 And it comes to pass—they are sitting at the table—and [there] is a word of YHWH to the prophet who brought him back,
Cumque sederent ad mensam, factus est sermo Domini ad prophetam, qui reduxerat eum.
21 and he calls to the man of God who came from Judah, saying, “Thus said YHWH: Because that you have provoked the mouth of YHWH, and have not kept the command that your God YHWH charged you,
Et exclamavit ad virum Dei, qui venerat de Iuda, dicens: Hæc dicit Dominus: Quia non obediens fuisti ori Domini, et non custodisti mandatum, quod præcepit tibi Dominus Deus tuus,
22 and turn back and eat bread and drink water in the place of which He said to you, You do not eat bread nor drink water—your carcass does not come into the burying-place of your fathers.”
et reversus es, et comedisti panem, et bibisti aquam in loco in quo præcepit tibi ne comederes panem, neque biberes aquam, non inferetur cadaver tuum in sepulchrum patrum tuorum.
23 And it comes to pass, after his eating bread, and after his drinking, that he saddles the donkey for him, for the prophet whom he had brought back,
Cumque comedisset et bibisset, stravit asinum suum prophetæ, quem reduxerat.
24 and he goes, and a lion finds him in the way, and puts him to death, and his carcass is cast in the way, and the donkey is standing near it, and the lion is standing near the carcass.
Qui cum abiisset, invenit eum leo in via, et occidit, et erat cadaver eius proiectum in itinere: asinus autem stabat iuxta illum, et leo stabat iuxta cadaver.
25 And behold, men are passing by, and see the carcass cast in the way, and the lion standing near the carcass, and they come and speak [of it] in the city in which the old prophet is dwelling.
Et ecce, viri transeuntes viderunt cadaver proiectum in via, et leonem stantem iuxta cadaver. Et venerunt et divulgaverunt in civitate, in qua prophetes ille senex habitabat.
26 And the prophet who brought him back out of the way hears and says, “It [is] the man of God who provoked the mouth of YHWH, and YHWH gives him to the lion, and it destroys him, and puts him to death, according to the word of YHWH that he spoke to him.”
Quod cum audisset propheta ille, qui reduxerat eum de via, ait: Vir Dei est, qui inobediens fuit ori Domini, et tradidit eum Dominus leoni, et confregit eum, et occidit iuxta verbum Domini, quod locutus est ei.
27 And he speaks to his sons saying, “Saddle the donkey for me,” and they saddle [it].
Dixitque ad filios suos: Sternite mihi asinum. Qui cum stravissent,
28 And he goes and finds his carcass cast in the way, and the donkey and the lion are standing near the carcass—the lion has not eaten the carcass nor destroyed the donkey.
et ille abiisset, invenit cadaver eius proiectum in via, et asinum et leonem stantem iuxta cadaver: non comedit leo de cadavere, nec læsit asinum.
29 And the prophet takes up the carcass of the man of God, and places it on the donkey, and brings it back, and the old prophet comes to the city to mourn and to bury him,
Tulit ergo prophetes cadaver viri Dei, et posuit illud super asinum, et reversus intulit in civitatem prophetæ senis ut plangeret eum.
30 and he places his carcass in his own grave, and they mourn for him, “Oh, my brother!”
Et posuit cadaver eius in sepulchro suo: et planxerunt eum: Heu heu mi frater.
31 And it comes to pass, after his burying him, that he speaks to his sons, saying, “At my death—you have buried me in the burying-place in which the man of God is buried; place my bones near his bones;
Cumque planxissent eum, dixit ad filios suos: Cum mortuus fuero, sepelite me in sepulchro, in quo vir Dei sepultus est: iuxta ossa eius ponite ossa mea.
32 for the word certainly comes to pass that he called by the word of YHWH concerning the altar which [is in] Beth-El, and concerning all the houses of the high places that [are] in cities of Samaria.”
Profecto enim veniet sermo, quem prædixit in sermone Domini contra altare quod est in Bethel, et contra omnia fana excelsorum, quæ sunt in urbibus Samariæ.
33 After this thing Jeroboam has not turned from his evil way, and turns back, and makes priests of high places from the extremities of the people; he who is desirous—he consecrates his hand, and he is of the priests of the high places.
Post verba hæc non est reversus Ieroboam de via sua pessima, sed econtrario fecit de novissimis populi sacerdotes excelsorum: quicumque volebat, implebat manum suam, et fiebat sacerdos excelsorum.
34 And in this thing is the sin of the house of Jeroboam, even to cut [it] off, and to destroy [it] from off the face of the ground.
Et propter hanc causam peccavit domus Ieroboam, et eversa est, et deleta de superficie terræ.
