1 And alle the princes of werriours neiyiden, and Johannan, the sone of Caree, and Jeconye, the sone of Josie, and the residue comyn puple, fro a litil man `til to a greet man.
et accesserunt omnes principes bellatorum et Iohanan filius Caree et Iezonias filius Osaiae et reliquum vulgus a parvo usque ad magnum
2 And thei seiden to Jeremye, the profete, Oure preier falle in thi siyt, and preie thou for vs to thi Lord God, for alle these remenauntis; for we ben left a fewe of manye, as thin iyen biholden vs; and thi Lord God telle to vs the weie,
dixeruntque ad Hieremiam 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 bi which we schulen go, and the word which we schulen do.
et adnuntiet nobis Dominus Deus tuus viam per quam pergamus et verbum quod faciamus
4 Forsothe Jeremye, the profete, seide to hem, Y haue herd; lo! Y preye to oure Lord God, bi youre wordis; Y schal schewe to you ech word, what euere word the Lord schal answere to me, nether Y schal hide ony thing fro you.
dixit autem ad eos Hieremias propheta audivi ecce ego oro ad Dominum Deum vestrum secundum verba vestra omne verbum quodcumque responderit mihi indicabo vobis nec celabo vos quicquam
5 And thei seiden to Jeremye, The Lord be witnesse of treuthe and of feith bitwixe vs; if not bi ech word, in which thi Lord God schal sende thee to vs, so we schulen do, whether it be good ether yuel.
et illi dixerunt ad Hieremiam 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 We schulen obeie to the vois of oure Lord God, to whom we senden thee, that it be wel to vs, whanne we han herd the vois of oure Lord God.
sive bonum est sive malum voci Domini Dei nostri ad quem mittimus te oboediemus ut bene sit nobis cum audierimus vocem Domini Dei nostri
7 Forsothe whanne ten daies weren fillid, the word of the Lord was maad to Jeremye.
cum autem conpleti essent decem dies factum est verbum Domini ad Hieremiam
8 And he clepide Johannan, the sone of Caree, and alle the princes of werriours, that weren with hym, and al the puple fro the leste `til to the mooste; and he seide to hem,
vocavitque Iohanan filium Caree et omnes principes bellatorum qui erant cum eo et universum populum a minimo usque ad magnum
9 The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, to whom ye senten me, that Y schulde mekeli sette forth youre preyeris in his siyt.
et dixit ad eos haec dicit Dominus Deus Israhel ad quem misistis me ut prosternerem preces vestras in conspectu eius
10 If ye resten, and dwellen in this lond, Y schal bilde you, and Y schal not distrie; Y schal plaunte, and Y schal not drawe out; for now Y am plesid on the yuel which Y dide to you.
si quiescentes manseritis in terra hac aedificabo vos et non destruam plantabo et non evellam iam enim placatus sum super malo quod feci vobis
11 Nyle ye drede of the face of the kyng of Babiloyne, whom ye `that ben ferdful, dreden; nyle ye drede hym, seith the Lord, for Y am with you, to make you saaf, and to delyuere fro his hond.
nolite timere a facie regis Babylonis quem vos pavidi formidatis nolite eum metuere dicit Dominus quia vobiscum sum ego ut salvos faciam vos et eruam de manu eius
12 And Y schal yyue mercies to you, and Y schal haue merci on you, and Y schal make you dwelle in youre lond.
et dabo vobis misericordiam et miserebor vestri et habitare vos faciam in terra vestra
13 Forsothe if ye seien, We schulen not dwelle in this lond, nether we schulen here the vois of oure Lord God, and seie,
si autem dixeritis vos non habitabimus in terra ista nec audiemus vocem Domini Dei nostri
14 Nai, but we schulen go to the lond of Egipt, where we schulen not se batel, and schulen not here the noise of trumpe, and we schulen not suffre hungur, and there we schulen dwelle;
dicentes nequaquam sed ad terram Aegypti pergemus ubi non videbimus bellum et clangorem tubae non audiemus et famem non sustinebimus et ibi habitabimus
15 for this thing, ye remenauntis of Juda, here now the word of the Lord. The Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, If ye setten youre face, for to entre in to Egipt, and if ye entren,
propter hoc nunc audite verbum Domini reliquiae Iuda haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel si posueritis faciem vestram ut ingrediamini Aegyptum et intraveritis ut ibi habitetis
16 to dwelle there, the swerd whiche ye dreden schal take you there in the lond of Egipt, and the hungur for which ye ben angwischid schal cleue to you in Egipt; and there ye schulen die.
gladium quem vos formidatis ibi conprehendet vos in terra Aegypti et fames pro qua estis solliciti adherebit vobis in Aegypto et ibi moriemini
17 And alle the men that settiden her face, to entre in to Egipt, and to dwelle there, schulen die bi swerd, and hungur, and pestilence; no man of hem schal dwelle stille, nether schal aschape fro the face of yuel, which Y schal brynge on hem.
omnesque viri qui posuerint faciem suam ut ingrediantur Aegyptum et habitent ibi morientur gladio et fame et peste nullus de eis remanebit nec effugient a facie mali quod ego adferam super eos
18 For why the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, As my strong veniaunce and myn indignacioun is wellid togidere on the dwelleris of Jerusalem, so myn indignacioun schal be wellid togidere on you, whanne ye han entrid in to Egipt; and ye schulen be in to sweryng, and in to wondring, and in to cursyng, and in to schenschipe; and ye schulen no more se this place.
quia haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel sicut conflatus est furor meus et indignatio mea super habitatores Hierusalem sic conflabitur indignatio mea super vos cum ingressi fueritis Aegyptum et eritis in iusiurandum et in stuporem et in maledictum et in obprobrium et nequaquam ultra videbitis locum istum
19 The word of the Lord is on you, ye remenauntis of Juda; nyle ye entre in to Egipt; ye witinge schulen wite, that Y haue witnessid to you to dai;
verbum Domini super vos reliquiae Iuda nolite intrare Aegyptum scientes scietis quia obtestatus sum vobis hodie
20 for ye han disseyued youre soulis, for ye senten me to youre Lord God, and seiden, Preye thou for vs to oure Lord God, and bi alle thingis what euer thingis oure Lord schal seie to thee, so telle thou to vs, and we schulen do.
quia decepistis animas vestras vos enim misistis me ad Dominum Deum nostrum dicentes ora pro nobis ad Dominum Deum nostrum et iuxta omnia quaecumque dixerit tibi Dominus Deus noster sic adnuntia nobis et faciemus
21 And Y telde to you to dai, and ye herden not the vois of youre Lord God, on alle thingis for whiche he sente me to you.
et adnuntiavi vobis hodie et non audistis vocem Domini Dei vestri super universis pro quibus misit me ad vos
22 Now therfor ye witynge schulen wite, for ye schulen die bi swerd, and hungur, and pestilence, in the place to which ye wolden entre, to dwelle there.
nunc ergo scientes scietis quia gladio et fame et peste moriemini in loco ad quem voluistis intrare ut habitaretis ibi
