Jeremiah 20
1 Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in the house of the LORD, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.
Et audivit Phassur filius Emmer sacerdos, qui constitutus erat princeps in domo Domini, Ieremiam prophetantem sermones istos.
2 Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the Upper Gate of Benjamin, which was in 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 It happened on the next day, that Pashhur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, "The LORD has not called your name 'Pashhur,' 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 says the LORD, 'Look, I will make you a terror to yourself, and to all your friends; and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes shall see it; and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive to Babylon, and shall kill 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 give all the riches of this city, and all its gains, and all the precious things of it, yes, all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies; and they shall make them a prey, 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 You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house shall go into captivity; and you shall come to Babylon, and there you shall die, and there you shall be buried, you, and all your friends, to whom you have prophesied falsely.'"
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 LORD, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded. You are stronger than I am, and have prevailed. I have become a laughing-stock all day long; everyone mocks me.
Seduxisti me Domine, et seductus sum: fortior me fuisti, et invaluisti: factus sum in derisum tota die, omnes subsannant me.
8 For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, "Violence and destruction." because the word of the LORD is made a reproach to me, and a derision, all the day.
Quia iam olim loquor, vociferans iniquitatem, et vastitatem clamito: et factus est mihi sermo Domini in opprobrium, et in derisum tota die.
9 If I say, "I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name," then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I can't contain it.
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 have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side. "Denounce, and we will denounce him," say all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall; "perhaps he will be persuaded, 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 an awesome mighty one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be utterly disappointed, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which 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, the LORD of hosts, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them; for to you have I revealed 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 to the LORD, praise the LORD; for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.
Cantate Domino, laudate Dominum: quia liberavit animam pauperis de manu malorum.
14 Cursed is the day in which I was born: do not let the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.
Maledicta dies, in qua natus sum: dies, in qua peperit me mater mea, non sit benedicta.
15 Cursed is the man who brought news to my father, saying, A boy is born to you; making him very glad.
Maledictus vir, qui nunciavit patri meo, dicens: Natus est tibi puer masculus: et quasi gaudio laetificavit eum.
16 Let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and did not repent: and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime;
Sit homo ille ut sunt civitates, quae subvertit Dominus, et non poenituit eum: audiat clamorem mane, et ululatum in tempore meridiano:
17 because he did not kill me from the womb; and so my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
quia non me interfecit a vulva, ut fieret mihi mater mea sepulchrum, et vulva eius conceptus aeternus.
18 Why came I forth out of the womb to see labor 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?
