< Jeremiah 47 >
1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before that Pharaoh struck Gaza.
Quod factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam prophetam contra Palæsthinos, antequam percuteret Pharao Gazam:
2 "Thus says the LORD: 'Look, waters rise up out of the north, and shall become an overflowing stream, and shall overflow the land and all that is in it, the city and those who dwell in it; and the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall wail.
Hæc dicit Dominus: Ecce aquæ ascendunt ab Aquilone, et erunt quasi torrens inundans, et operient terram, et plenitudinem eius, urbem et habitatores eius: clamabunt homines, et ululabunt omnes habitatores terræ
3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers do not look back to their children for feebleness of hands;
a strepitu pompæ armorum, et bellatorum eius, a commotione quadrigarum eius, et multitudine rotarum illius. Non respexerunt patres filios manibus dissolutis
4 because of the day that comes to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains: for the LORD will destroy the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Caphtor.
pro adventu diei, in quo vastabuntur omnes Philisthiim, et dissipabitur Tyrus, et Sidon cum omnibus reliquis auxiliis suis. depopulatus est enim Dominus Palæsthinos, reliquias insulæ Cappadociæ.
5 Baldness has come on Gaza; Ashkelon is brought to nothing, the remnant of their valley: how long will you cut yourself?
Venit calvitium super Gazam: conticuit Ascalon, et reliquiæ vallis earum, usquequo concideris?
6 You sword of the LORD, "how long will it be before you be quiet? Put yourself into your sheath; rest, and be still."
O mucro Domini usquequo non quiesces? Ingredere in vaginam tuam, refrigerare, et sile.
7 How can it be quiet, since the LORD has given you a command? Against Ashkelon, and against the seashore, there has he appointed it.'"
Quomodo quiescet cum Dominus præceperit ei adversus Ascalonem, et adversus maritimas eius regiones, ibique condixerit illi?
