< 1 Kings 13 >
1 And lo, a man of God hath come from Judah, by the word of Jehovah, unto Beth-El, and Jeroboam is standing by the altar — to make perfume;
Et ecce vir Dei venit de Iuda in sermone Domini in Bethel, Ieroboam stante super altare, et thus iaciente.
2 and he calleth against the altar, by the word of Jehovah, and saith, 'Altar! altar! thus said Jehovah, Lo, a son is born to the house of David — Josiah his name — and he hath sacrificed on thee the priests of the high places who are making perfume on thee, and bones of man are burnt on 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 hath given on that day a sign, saying, 'This [is] the sign that Jehovah hath spoken, Lo, the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth that [are] on it.'
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 cometh to pass, at the king's hearing the word of the man of God that he calleth against the altar in Beth-El, that Jeroboam putteth forth his hand from off the altar, saying, 'Catch him;' and his hand is dried up that he hath put forth against him, and he is not able to bring it back unto 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 and the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of Jehovah.
Altare quoque scissum est, et effusus est cinis de altari, iuxta signum quod prædixerat vir Dei in sermone Domini.
6 And the king answereth and saith unto the man of God, 'Appease, I pray thee, the face of Jehovah thy God, and pray for me, and my hand doth come back unto me;' and the man of God appeaseth the face of Jehovah, and the hand of the king cometh back unto him, and it is as at the beginning.
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 And the king speaketh unto the man of God, 'Come in with me to the house, and refresh thyself, and I give to thee a gift.'
Locutus est autem rex ad virum Dei: Veni mecum domum ut prandeas, et dabo tibi munera.
8 And the man of God saith unto the king, 'If thou dost give to me the half of thine house, I do not go in with thee, nor do I eat bread, nor do I 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 commanded me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water, nor turn back in the way that thou hast come.'
sic enim mandatum est mihi in sermone Domini præcipientis: Non comedes panem, neque bibes aquam, nec reverteris per viam qua venisti.
10 And he goeth on in another way, and hath not turned back in the way in which he came in unto Beth-El.
Abiit ergo per aliam viam, et non est reversus per iter, quo venerat in Bethel.
11 And a certain aged prophet is dwelling in Beth-El, and his son cometh and recounteth to him all the deed that the man of God hath done to-day in Beth-El, the words that he hath spoken unto the king, — yea, they recount 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 saith unto them, 'Where [is] this — the way he hath gone?' and his sons see the way that the man of God hath gone who came from 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 And he saith unto his sons, 'Saddle for me the ass,' and they saddle for him the ass, and he rideth on it,
Et ait filiis suis: Sternite mihi asinum. Qui cum stravissent, ascendit,
14 and goeth after the man of God, and findeth him sitting under the oak, and saith unto him, 'Art thou the man of God who hast come from Judah?' and he saith, '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 And he saith unto him, 'Come with me to the house, and eat bread.'
Dixitque ad eum: Veni mecum domum, ut comedas panem.
16 And he saith, 'I am not able to turn back with thee, and to go in with thee, nor do I eat bread or drink with thee water in this place,
Qui ait: Non possum reverti, neque venire tecum, nec comedam panem, neque bibam aquam in loco isto:
17 for a word [is] unto me by the word of Jehovah, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink there water, thou dost not turn back to go in the way in which thou camest.'
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 saith to him, 'I also [am] a prophet like thee, and a messenger spake unto me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Bring him back with thee unto thy house, and he doth eat bread and drink water;' — he hath lied to 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 And he turneth back with him, and eateth bread in his house, and drinketh water.
et reduxit secum: comedit ergo panem in domo eius, et bibit aquam.
20 And it cometh to pass — they are sitting at the table — and a word of Jehovah is unto the prophet who brought him back,
Cumque sederent ad mensam, factus est sermo Domini ad prophetam, qui reduxerat eum.
21 and he calleth unto the man of God who came from Judah, saying, 'Thus said Jehovah, Because that thou hast provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and hast not kept the command that Jehovah thy God charged 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 and turnest back and dost eat bread and drink water in the place of which He said unto thee, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water — thy carcase cometh not in unto 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 cometh to pass, after his eating bread, and after his drinking, that he saddleth for him the ass, for the prophet whom he had brought back,
Cumque comedisset et bibisset, stravit asinum suum prophetæ, quem reduxerat.
24 and he goeth, and a lion findeth him in the way, and putteth him to death, and his carcase is cast in the way, and the ass is standing near it, and the lion is standing near the carcase.
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, men are passing by, and see the carcase cast in the way, and the lion standing near the carcase, and they come and speak [of it] in the city in which the old prophet is dwelling.
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 the prophet who brought him back out of the way heareth and saith, 'It [is] the man of God who provoked the mouth of Jehovah, and Jehovah giveth him to the lion, and it destroyeth him, and putteth him to death, according to the word of Jehovah that he spake to 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 speaketh unto his sons saying, 'Saddle for me the ass,' and they saddle [it].
Dixitque ad filios suos: Sternite mihi asinum. Qui cum stravissent,
28 And he goeth and findeth his carcase cast in the way, and the ass and the lion are standing near the carcase — the lion hath not eaten the carcase nor destroyed 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 taketh up the carcase of the man of God, and placeth it on the ass, and bringeth it back, and the old prophet cometh in unto the city to mourn 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 placeth his carcase in his own grave, and they mourn for him, 'Oh, my brother!'
Et posuit cadaver eius in sepulchro suo: et planxerunt eum: Heu, heu, mi frater!
31 And it cometh to pass, after his burying him, that he speaketh unto his sons, saying, 'At my death — ye have buried me in the burying-place in which the man of God is buried; near his bones place 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 word certainly cometh to pass that he called by the word of Jehovah concerning the altar which [is] Beth-El, and concerning all the houses of the high places that [are] in cities of Samaria.'
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 hath not turned from his evil way, and turneth back, and maketh of the extremities of the people priests of high places; he who is desirous he consecrateth his hand, and he is of the priests of the 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 in this thing is the sin of the house of Jeroboam, even to cut [it] off, and to destroy [it] from off the face of the ground.
Et propter hanc causam peccavit domus Ieroboam, et eversa est, et deleta de superficie terræ.
