1 Kings 13
1 And lo! a man of God, came in out of Judah, by the word of Yahweh, unto Bethel, —as Jeroboam was standing by the altar, to make a perfume.
Et ecce vir Dei venit de Iuda in sermone Domini in Bethel, Ieroboam stante super altare, et thus iaciente.
2 And he made proclamation against the altar, by the word of Yahweh, and said, O altar! altar! Thus, saith Yahweh, —Lo! a son to be born unto the house of David, Josiah his name, who shall sacrifice upon thee the priests of the high-places, who are making a perfume upon thee, and, human bones, shall be burned upon thee;
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 shall give, on that day, a sign, saying, This, is the sign of which Yahweh hath spoken, —Lo! the altar, is to be rent, and the ashes that are upon thee shall be, poured out!
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 came to pass, when the king heard the word of the man of God which he proclaimed against the altar in Bethel, Jeroboam thrust forth his hand, from off the altar, saying—Lay hold of him! and his hand which he had thrust forth against him was dried up, that he could not draw it back to him.
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 Moreover, the altar, was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, —according to the sign which the man of God had given, by the word of Yahweh.
Altare quoque scissum est, et effusus est cinis de altari, iuxta signum quod prædixerat vir Dei in sermone Domini.
6 Then responded the king and said unto the man of God—Appease, I pray thee, the face of Yahweh thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored unto me. So the man of God appeased the face of Yahweh, and the hand of the king was restored unto him, and became as aforetime.
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 Then spake the king unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, —and let me give thee a present.
Locutus est autem rex ad virum Dei: Veni mecum domum ut prandeas, et dabo tibi munera.
8 But the man of God said unto the king—If thou wouldst give me the half of thy house, I would not go in with thee, —neither would I eat bread or 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 charged me, by the word of Yahweh, saying, Thou shalt not eat bread, nor shalt thou drink water, —neither shalt thou come back by the way thou wentest.
sic enim mandatum est mihi in sermone Domini præcipientis: Non comedes panem, neque bibes aquam, nec reverteris per viam qua venisti.
10 So he departed another way, —and went not back by the way by which he came unto Bethel.
Abiit ergo per aliam viam, et non est reversus per iter, quo venerat in Bethel.
11 But, a certain aged prophet, was dwelling in Bethel, —whose sons came in and related to him all the deeds which the man of God had done that day in Bethel—and the words which he had spoken unto the king, and they related 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 said unto them, Which way then went he? Now his sons had seen the way which the man of God went who had come in out of Judah.
Et dixit eis pater eorum: Per quam viam abiit? Ostenderunt ei filii sui viam, per quam abierat vir Dei, qui venerat de Iuda.
13 So he said unto his sons, Saddle for me, the ass. And they saddled for him the ass, and he rode thereon;
Et ait filiis suis: Sternite mihi asinum. Qui cum stravissent, ascendit,
14 and went after the man of God, and found him, sitting under an oak. And he said unto him—Art, thou, the man of God who came in out of Judah? And he said—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 Then said he unto him, Come home with me, —and eat bread.
Dixitque ad eum: Veni mecum domum, ut comedas panem.
16 And he said—I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee, —neither will I eat bread or drink water with thee, in this place;
Qui ait: Non possum reverti, neque venire tecum, nec comedam panem, neque bibam aquam in loco isto:
17 for there came a message unto me by the word of Yahweh, Thou shalt neither eat bread, nor drink water there, —thou shalt not turn back to come by the way by which thou wentest.
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 said to him-I also, am a prophet, like unto thee, and, a messenger, hath spoken unto me, by the word of Yahweh, saying—Bring him back with thee, into thy house, that he may eat bread, and drink water. He deceived 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 So he went back with him, and did eat bread in his house, and drank water.
et reduxit secum: comedit ergo panem in domo eius, et bibit aquam.
20 And so it was, as, they, were sitting at the table, yea, so it was, that the word of Yahweh came unto the prophet who had brought him back;
Cumque sederent ad mensam, factus est sermo Domini ad prophetam, qui reduxerat eum.
21 and he cried out unto the man of God who had come in out of Judah, saying, Thus, saith Yahweh, —Forasmuch as thou hast rebelled against the bidding of Yahweh, and hast not kept the commandment which Yahweh thy God commanded thee;
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 but hast returned, and eaten bread and drunk water, in the place of which he said unto thee, Thou mayest neither eat bread nor drink water: thy dead body shall not enter the burying-place of thy 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 came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk, that he saddled for him the ass, for the prophet whom he had brought back.
Cumque comedisset et bibisset, stravit asinum suum prophetæ, quem reduxerat.
24 And, when he had gone, there met him a lion by the way, and slew him, —and his dead body was cast out in the way, and, the ass, was standing near it, and, the lion, was standing near the dead body.
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 lo! certain men, passing by, saw the dead body, cast out in the way, and the lion standing near the dead body, —so they came in, and spake [of it] in the city, wherein, the aged prophet, dwelt.
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, when the prophet who had brought him back from the way heard of it, he said—The man of God, it is, who rebelled against the bidding of Yahweh, —therefore did Yahweh deliver him unto the lion, and it hath torn him and slain him, according to the word of Yahweh which he spake unto 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 spake unto his sons, saying, Saddle for me the ass. And they saddled it.
Dixitque ad filios suos: Sternite mihi asinum. Qui cum stravissent,
28 So he went and found his dead body, cast out in the way, with, the ass and the lion, standing near the dead body, —the lion had neither eaten the dead body, nor had it torn the ass.
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 took up the dead body of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back, —and the aged prophet came into the city, to make lamentation, 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 laid his dead body in his own grave, —and they lamented over him, [saying] —Alas, my brother!
Et posuit cadaver eius in sepulchro suo: et planxerunt eum: Heu, heu, mi frater!
31 And it came to pass, after he had buried him, that he spake unto his sons, saying, When I die, then shall ye bury me in the grave wherein the man of God is buried; beside his bones, lay my 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 message which he proclaimed, by the ward of Yahweh, against the altar which is in Bethel, —and against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of Samaria, shall surely come to pass.
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 turned not from his wicked way, —but again made, from the whole compass of the people, priests of high places, whomsoever he would, he installed, and he became priest of 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 so this thing became the sin of the house of Jeroboam, —that it should be both taken away and destroyed, from off the face of the ground.
Et propter hanc causam peccavit domus Ieroboam, et eversa est, et deleta de superficie terræ.
