Jeremiah 42
1 Then all the captains of the forces, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least even to the greatest, came near.
Et accesserunt omnes principes bellatorum, et Iohanan filius Caree, et Iezonias filius Osaiæ, et reliquum vulgus a parvo usque ad magnum:
2 And said to Jeremiah the prophet, We beseech thee, let our supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us to the LORD thy God, [even] for all this remnant; (for we are left [but] a few of many, as thy eyes do behold us: )
Dixeruntque ad Ieremiam prophetam: Cadat oratio nostra in conspectu tuo: et ora pro nobis ad Dominum Deum tuum pro universis reliquiis istis, quia derelicti sumus pauci de pluribus, sicut oculi tui nos intuentur:
3 That the LORD thy God may show us the way in which we may walk, and the thing that we may do.
Et annunciet nobis Dominus Deus tuus viam, per quam pergamus, et verbum, quod faciamus.
4 Then Jeremiah the prophet said to them, I have heard [you]; behold, I will pray to the LORD your God according to your words; and it shall come to pass, [that] whatever thing the LORD shall answer you, I will declare [it] to you; I will keep nothing back from you.
Dixit autem ad eos Ieremias propheta: Audivi: ecce ego oro ad Dominum Deum vestrum secundum verba vestra. omne verbum, quodcumque responderit mihi, indicabo vobis: nec celabo vos quidquam.
5 Then they said to Jeremiah, The LORD be a true and faithful witness between us, if we do not even according to all things for which the LORD thy God shall send thee to us.
Et illi dixerunt ad Ieremiam: Sit Dominus inter nos testis veritatis et fidei, si non iuxta omne verbum, in quo miserit te Dominus Deus tuus ad nos, sic faciemus.
6 Whether [it be] good, or whether [it be] evil, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God, to whom we send thee; that it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of the LORD our God.
Sive bonum est, sive malum, voci Domini Dei nostri, ad quem mittimus te, obediemus. ut bene sit nobis cum audierimus vocem Domini Dei nostri.
7 And it came to pass after ten days, that the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah.
Cum autem completi essent decem dies, factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam.
8 Then called he Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who [were] with him, and all the people from the least even to the greatest,
Vocavitque Iohanan filium Caree, et omnes principes bellatorum, qui erant cum eo, et universum populum a minimo usque ad magnum.
9 And said to them, Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, to whom ye sent me to present your supplication before him;
Et dixit ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israel, ad quem misistis me, ut prosternerem preces vestras in conspectu eius:
10 If ye will still abide in this land, then will I build you, and not pull [you] down, and I will plant you, and not pluck [you] up: for I repent of the evil that I have done to you.
Si quiescentes manseritis in terra hac, ædificabo vos, et non destruam; plantabo, et non evellam: iam enim placatus sum super malo quod feci vobis.
11 Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom ye are afraid; be not afraid of him, saith the LORD; for I [am] with you, to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.
Nolite timere a facie regis Babylonis, quem vos pavidi formidatis: nolite metuere eum, dicit Dominus: quia vobiscum sum ego, ut salvos vos faciam, et eruam de manu eius.
12 And I will show mercies to you, that he may have mercy upon you, and cause you to return to your own land.
Et dabo vobis misericordias, et miserebor vestri, et habitare vos faciam in terra vestra.
13 But if ye say, We will not dwell in this land, neither obey the voice of the LORD your God,
Si autem dixeritis vos: Non habitabimus in terra ista, nec audiemus vocem Domini Dei nostri,
14 Saying, No; but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor hunger for bread; and there will we dwell:
dicentes: Nequaquam, sed ad Terram Ægypti pergemus: ubi non videbimus bellum, et clangorem tubæ non audiemus, et famem non sustinebimus: et ibi habitabimus:
15 And now therefore hear the word of the LORD, ye remnant of Judah; Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; If ye wholly set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go to sojourn there;
Propter hoc nunc audite verbum Domini reliquiæ Iuda: Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel: Si posueritis faciem vestram ut ingrediamini Ægyptum, et intraveritis ut ibi habitetis:
16 Then it shall come to pass, [that] the sword, which ye feared, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and the famine of which ye were afraid, shall follow close after you there in Egypt; and there ye shall die.
gladius, quem vos formidatis, ibi comprehendet vos in Terra Ægypti: et fames, pro qua estis soliciti, adhærebit vobis in Ægypto, et ibi moriemini.
17 So shall it be with all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt to sojourn there; they shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: and none of them shall remain or escape from the evil that I will bring upon them.
Omnesque viri, qui posuerunt faciem suam ut ingrediantur Ægyptum, ut habitent ibi, morientur gladio, et fame, et peste: nullus de eis remanebit, nec effugiet a facie mali, quod ego afferam super eos.
18 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; As my anger and my fury hath been poured forth upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem: so shall my fury be poured forth upon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt: and ye shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and ye shall see this place no more.
Quia hæc dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel: Sicut conflatus est furor meus, et indignatio mea super habitatores Ierusalem: sic conflabitur indignatio mea super vos, cum ingressi fueritis Ægyptum, et eritis in iusiurandum, et in stuporem, et in maledictum, et in opprobrium: et nequaquam ultra videbitis locum istum.
19 The LORD hath said concerning you, O ye remnant of Judah; Go ye not into Egypt: know certainly that I have admonished you this day.
Verbum Domini super vos reliquiæ Iuda: Nolite intrare Ægyptum: scientes scietis quia obtestatus sum vos hodie,
20 For ye dissembled in your hearts, when ye sent me to the LORD your God, saying, Pray for us to the LORD our God; and according to all that the LORD our God shall say, so declare to us, and we will do [it].
quia decepistis animas vestras: vos enim misistis me ad Dominum Deum nostrum dicentes: Ora pro nobis ad Dominum Deum nostrum, et iuxta omnia quæcumque dixerit tibi Dominus Deus noster, sic annuncia nobis, et faciemus.
21 And [now] I have this day declared [it] to you; but ye have not obeyed the voice of the LORD your God, nor any [thing] for which he hath sent me to you.
Et annunciavi vobis hodie, et non audistis vocem Domini Dei vestri super universis, pro quibus misit me ad vos.
22 Now therefore know certainly that ye shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, in the place whither ye desire to go [and] to sojourn.
Nunc ergo scientes scietis quia gladio, et fame, et peste moriemini in loco, ad quem voluistis intrare ut habitaretis ibi.
