Jeremiah 11
1 The word that has been to Jeremiah from YHWH, saying,
verbum quod factum est ad Hieremiam a Domino dicens
2 “Hear the words of this covenant, and you have spoken to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem,
audite verba pacti huius et loquimini ad viros Iuda et habitatores Hierusalem
3 and you have said to them, Thus said YHWH God of Israel: Cursed [is] the man who does not obey the words of this covenant,
et dices ad eos haec dicit Dominus Deus Israhel maledictus vir qui non audierit verba pacti huius
4 That I commanded your fathers, In the day of My bringing them out from the land of Egypt, Out of the iron furnace, saying, Listen to My voice, and you have done them, According to all that I command you, And you have been to Me for a people, And I am to you for God,
quod praecepi patribus vestris in die qua eduxi eos de terra Aegypti de fornace ferrea dicens audite vocem meam et facite omnia quae praecipio vobis et eritis mihi in populum et ego ero vobis in Deum
5 In order to establish the oath that I have sworn to your fathers, To give to them a land flowing with milk and honey, as this day.” And I answer and say, “Amen, O YHWH.”
ut suscitem iuramentum quod iuravi patribus vestris daturum me eis terram fluentem lacte et melle sicut est dies haec et respondi et dixi amen Domine
6 And YHWH says to me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear the words of this covenant, And you have done them.
et dixit Dominus ad me vociferare omnia verba haec in civitatibus Iuda et foris Hierusalem dicens audite verba pacti huius et facite illa
7 For I certainly testified against your fathers, In the day of My bringing them up out of the land of Egypt—until this day, Rising early and testifying, saying, Listen to My voice,
quia contestans contestatus sum patres vestros in die qua eduxi eos de terra Aegypti usque ad diem hanc mane surgens contestatus sum et dixi audite vocem meam
8 And they have not listened nor inclined their ear, And they each walk in the stubbornness of their evil heart, And I bring on them all the words of this covenant, That I commanded to do, and they did not.”
et non audierunt nec inclinaverunt aurem suam sed abierunt unusquisque in pravitate cordis sui mali et induxi super eos omnia verba pacti huius quod praecepi ut facerent et non fecerunt
9 And YHWH says to me: “A conspiracy is found in the men of Judah, And in the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
et dixit Dominus ad me inventa est coniuratio in viris Iuda et in habitatoribus Hierusalem
10 They have turned back to the iniquities of their first fathers, Who refused to hear My words, And they have gone after other gods to serve them, The house of Israel and the house of Judah Have made void My covenant that I made with their fathers.”
reversi sunt ad iniquitates patrum suorum priores qui noluerunt audire verba mea et hii ergo abierunt post deos alienos ut servirent eis irritum fecerunt domus Israhel et domus Iuda pactum meum quod pepigi cum patribus eorum
11 Therefore, thus said YHWH: “Behold, I am bringing calamity on them, That they are not able to go out from, And they have cried to Me, And I do not listen to them.
quam ob rem haec dicit Dominus ecce ego inducam super eos mala de quibus exire non poterunt et clamabunt ad me et non exaudiam eos
12 And the cities of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem have gone, And they have cried to the gods, To whom they are making incense, And they give no deliverance at all to them, In the time of their distress.
et ibunt civitates Iuda et habitatores Hierusalem et clamabunt ad deos quibus libant et non salvabunt eos in tempore adflictionis eorum
13 For the number of your cities have been your gods, O Judah, And [for] the number of the streets of Jerusalem You have placed altars to a shameful thing, Altars to make incense to Ba‘al.
secundum numerum enim civitatum tuarum erant dii tui Iuda et secundum numerum viarum Hierusalem posuistis aras confusionis aras ad libandum Baali
14 And you, you do not pray for this people, Nor do you lift up cry and prayer for them, For I do not listen in the time of their calling to Me for their distress.
tu ergo noli orare pro populo hoc et ne adsumas pro eis laudem et orationem quia non exaudiam in tempore clamoris eorum ad me in tempore adflictionis eorum
15 What has My beloved to do in My house, Her doing wickedness with many, And does the holy flesh pass over from you? When you do evil, then you exult.
quid est quod dilectus meus in domo mea fecit scelera multa numquid carnes sanctae auferent a te malitias tuas in quibus gloriata es
16 An olive, green, beautiful, of good fruit, Has YHWH called your name, At the noise of a great tumult He has kindled fire against it, And its thin branches have been broken.
olivam uberem pulchram fructiferam speciosam vocavit Dominus nomen tuum ad vocem loquellae grandis exarsit ignis in ea et conbusta sunt frutecta eius
17 And YHWH of Hosts, who is planting you, Has spoken calamity concerning you, For the evil of the house of Israel, and of the house of Judah, That they have done to themselves, To provoke Me to anger, to make incense to Ba‘al.”
et Dominus exercituum qui plantavit te locutus est super te malum pro malis domus Israhel et domus Iuda quae fecerunt sibi ad inritandum me libantes Baali
18 And, O YHWH, cause me to know, and I know, Then You have showed me their doings.
tu autem Domine demonstrasti mihi et cognovi tunc ostendisti mihi studia eorum
19 And I [am] as a trained lamb brought to slaughter, And I have not known That they have devised schemes against me: “We destroy the tree with its food, And cut him off from the land of the living, And his name is not remembered again.”
et ego quasi agnus mansuetus qui portatur ad victimam et non cognovi quia super me cogitaverunt consilia mittamus lignum in panem eius et eradamus eum de terra viventium et nomen eius non memoretur amplius
20 And O YHWH of Hosts, judging righteousness, Trying reins and heart, I see Your vengeance against them, For I have revealed my cause to You.
tu autem Domine Sabaoth qui iudicas iuste et probas renes et cor videam ultionem tuam ex eis tibi enim revelavi causam meam
21 Therefore, thus said YHWH concerning the men of Anathoth, who are seeking your life, saying, “Do not prophesy in the Name of YHWH, and you do not die by our hands.”
propterea haec dicit Dominus ad viros Anathoth qui quaerunt animam tuam et dicunt non prophetabis in nomine Domini et non morieris in manibus nostris
22 Therefore, thus said YHWH of Hosts: “Behold, I am seeing after them, The chosen ones die by sword, Their sons and their daughters die by famine,
propterea haec dicit Dominus exercituum ecce ego visitabo super eos iuvenes morientur in gladio filii eorum et filiae eorum morientur in fame
23 And they have no remnant, For I bring calamity to the men of Anathoth, The year of their inspection!”
et reliquiae non erunt ex eis inducam enim malum super viros Anathoth annum visitationis eorum
