< Jeremiah 30 >
1 This is the word, that was maad of the Lord to Jeremye,
The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh saying.
2 and seide, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, and spekith, Write to thee in a book, alle these wordis whiche Y spak to thee.
Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel saying write for yourself all the words which I have spoken to you into a book.
3 For lo! daies comen, seith the Lord, and Y schal turne the turnyng of my puple Israel and Juda, seith the Lord; and Y schal turne hem to the lond which Y yaf to the fadris of hem, and thei schulen haue it in possessioun.
For here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will turn back [the] captivity of people my Israel and Judah he says Yahweh and I will bring back them to the land which I gave to ancestors their and they will take possession of it.
4 And these ben the wordis, whiche the Lord spak to Israel, and to Juda,
And these [are] the words which he spoke Yahweh concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
5 For the Lord seith these thingis, We herden a word of drede; inward drede is, and pees is not.
For thus he says Yahweh a sound of fear we have heard dread and there not [is] peace.
6 Axe ye, and se, if a male berith child; whi therfor siy Y the hond of ech man on his leende, as of a womman trauelynge of child, and alle faces ben turned in to yelow colour?
Ask please and see if [is] giving birth a male why? have I seen every man hands his on loins his like [woman] giving birth and have they been changed? all faces into paleness.
7 Wo! for thilke day is greet, nether ony is lyk it; and it is a tyme of tribulacioun to Jacob, and of hym schal be sauyd.
Woe! for [will be] great the day that from not [is] like it and [will be] a time of distress it for Jacob and from it he will be saved.
8 And it schal be, in that dai, seith the Lord of oostis, Y schal al to-breke the yok of hym fro thi necke, and Y schal breke hise boondis; and aliens schulen no more be lordis of it,
And it will be on the day that [the] utterance of - Yahweh of hosts I will break yoke his from on neck your and fetters your I will tear apart and not they will work by him again strangers.
9 but thei schulen serue to her Lord God, and to Dauid, her kyng, whom Y schal reyse for hem.
And they will serve Yahweh God their and David king their whom I will raise up for them.
10 Therfor, Jacob, my seruaunt, drede thou not, seith the Lord, and Israel, drede thou not; for lo! Y schal saue thee fro a fer lond, and thi seed fro the lond of the caitiftee of hem. And Jacob schal turne ayen, and schal reste, and schal flowe with alle goodis; and noon schal be whom he schal drede.
And you may not you fear O servant my Jacob [the] utterance of Yahweh and may not you be dismayed O Israel for here I [am] about to save you from a distant [land] and offspring your from [the] land of captivity their and he will return Jacob and he will be undisturbed and he will be at ease and there not [will be one who] terrifies.
11 For Y am with thee, seith the Lord, for to saue thee. For Y schal make endyng in alle folkis, in whiche Y scateride thee; sotheli Y schal not make thee in to endyng, but Y schal chastise thee in doom, that thou be not seyn to thee to be gilteles.
For [am] with you I [the] utterance of Yahweh to save you that I will make complete destruction on all the nations - where I have scattered you there nevertheless you not I will make complete destruction and I will discipline you to justice and certainly not I will leave unpunished you.
12 For the Lord seith these thingis, Thi brekyng is vncurable, thi wounde is the worste.
For thus he says Yahweh [is] incurable fracture your [is] severe wound your.
13 Noon is, that demeth thi doom to bynde togidere; the profit of heelyngis is not to thee.
There not [is one who] pleads cause your to a sore [are] medications of healing there not for you.
14 Alle thi louyeris han foryete thee, thei schulen not seke thee; for Y haue smyte thee with the wounde of an enemy, with cruel chastisyng; for the multitude of thi wickidnesse, thi synnes ben maad hard.
All lovers your they have forgotten you you not they care for for [the] blow of an enemy I have struck down you [the] correction of a cruel [one] on [the] greatness of iniquity your they are numerous sins your.
15 What criest thou on thi brekynge? thi sorewe is vncurable; for the multitude of thi wickidnesse, and for thin hard synnes, Y haue do these thingis to thee.
Why? do you cry out on fracture your [is] incurable pain your on - [the] greatness of iniquity your they are numerous sins your I have done these [things] to you.
16 Therfor alle that eeten thee, schulen be deuourid, and alle thin enemyes schulen be led in to caitifte; and thei that distrien thee, schulen be distried, and Y schal yyue alle thi robberis in to raueyn.
Therefore all [those who] devour you they will be devoured and all opponents your all of them in captivity they will go and they will become [those who] plunder you plunder and all [those who] despoil you I will make into spoil.
17 For Y schal heele perfitli thi wounde, and Y schal make thee hool of thi woundis, seith the Lord; for thou, Sion, thei clepeden thee cast out; this is it that hadde no sekere.
For I will bring up healing for you and from wounds your I will heal you [the] utterance of Yahweh that an outcast people have called you [is] Zion it [is one who] cares there not for it.
18 The Lord seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal turne the turnyng of the tabernaclis of Jacob, and Y schal haue merci on the housis of hym; and the citee schal be bildid in his hiynesse, and the temple schal be foundid bi his ordre.
Thus - he says Yahweh here I [am] about to turn back [the] captivity of [the] tents of Jacob and dwellings its I will have compassion and it will be rebuilt a city on mound its and a fortress on proper place its it will remain.
19 And heriyng and the vois of pleiers schal go out of hem, and Y schal multiplie hem, and thei schulen not be decreessid; and Y schal glorifie hem, and thei schulen not be maad thynne.
And it will go out from them thanksgiving and [the] sound of merry makers and I will multiply them and not they will diminish and I will make honored them and not they will be insignificant.
20 And the sones therof schulen be as at the bigynnyng, and the cumpeny therof schal dwelle bifore me; and Y schal visite ayens alle that doon tribulacioun to it.
And they will be children its like long ago and congregation its before me it will be established and I will visit [judgment] on all [those who] oppress it.
21 And the duyk therof schal be of it, and a prince schal be brouyt forth of the myddis therof; and Y schal applie hym, and he schal neiye to me; for who is this, that schal applie his herte, that he neiye to me? seith the Lord.
And he will be noble [one] its one of it and ruler its from [the] midst its he will come forth and I will bring near him and he will draw near to me for who? that this has he pledged heart his to draw near to me [the] utterance of Yahweh.
22 And ye schulen be in to a puple to me, and Y schal be in to God to you.
And you will become for me a people and I I will become for you God.
23 Lo! the whirlewynd of the Lord, a strong veniaunce goynge out, a tempest fallynge doun, schal reste in the heed of wickid men.
There! - [the] storm of Yahweh rage it has gone out a storm staying as a sojourner on [the] head of wicked [people] it will whirl about.
24 The Lord schal not turne awey the ire of indignacioun, til he do, and fille the thouyt of his herte; in the laste of daies ye schulen vndurstonde tho thingis.
Not it will turn back [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh until has brought about he and until has carried out he [the] purposes of heart his at [the] end of the days you will understand it.
