Jeremiæ 28

1 Et factum est in anno illo, in principio regni Sedeciæ regis Iuda, in anno quarto, in mense quinto, dixit ad me Hananias filius Azur propheta de Gabaon, in domo Domini coram sacerdotibus et omni populo, dicens:

It happened the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the house of the LORD, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,

2 Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel: Contrivi iugum regis Babylonis.

"Thus speaks the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, 'I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3 Adhuc duo anni dierum, et ego referri faciam ad locum istum omnia vasa domus Domini, quæ tulit Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis de loco isto, et transtulit ea in Babylonem.

Within two full years will I bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD's house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried to Babylon:

4 Et Iechoniam filium Ioakim regem Iuda, et omnem transmigrationem Iuda, qui ingressi sunt in Babylonem, ego convertam ad locum istum, ait Dominus: conteram enim iugum regis Babylonis.

and I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, who went to Babylon,' says the LORD; 'for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.'"

5 Et dixit Ieremias propheta ad Hananiam prophetam in oculis sacerdotum, et in oculis omnis populi, qui stabat in domo Domini.

Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people who stood in the house of the LORD,

6 Et ait Ieremias propheta: Amen, sic faciat Dominus: suscitet Dominus verba tua, quæ prophetasti: ut referantur vasa in domum Domini, et omnis transmigratio de Babylone ad locum istum.

even the prophet Jeremiah said, "Amen: LORD do so; the LORD perform your words which you have prophesied, to bring back the vessels of the LORD's house, and all them of the captivity, from Babylon to this place.

7 Verumtamen audi verbum hoc, quod ego loquor in auribus tuis, et in auribus universi populi:

Nevertheless hear you now this word that I speak in your ears, and in the ears of all the people:

8 Prophetæ, qui fuerunt ante me et ante te ab initio, et prophetaverunt super terras multas, et super regna magna de prælio, et de afflictione, et de fame.

The prophets who have been before me and before you of old prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, and of evil, and of pestilence.

9 Propheta, qui vaticinatus est pacem: cum venerit verbum eius, scietur propheta, quem misit Dominus in veritate.

The prophet who prophesies of peace, when the word of the prophet shall happen, then shall the prophet be known, that the LORD has truly sent him."

10 Et tulit Hananias propheta catenam de collo Ieremiæ prophetæ, et confregit eam.

Then Hananiah the prophet took the bar from off the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and broke it.

11 Et ait Hananias in conspectu omnis populi, dicens: Hæc dicit Dominus: Sic confringam iugum Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis post duos annos dierum de collo omnium gentium.

Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, "Thus says the LORD: 'Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon within two full years from off the neck of all the nations.'" The prophet Jeremiah went his way.

12 Et abiit Ieremias propheta in viam suam. Et factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam, postquam confregit Hananias propheta catenam de collo Ieremiæ prophetæ, dicens:

Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the bar from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,

13 Vade, et dices Hananiæ: Hæc dicit Dominus: Catenas ligneas contrivisti: et facies pro eis catenas ferreas.

"Go, and tell Hananiah, saying, 'Thus says the LORD: You have broken the bars of wood; but you have made in their place bars of iron.

14 Quia hæc dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israel: Iugum ferreum posui super collum cunctarum gentium istarum, ut serviant Nabuchodonosor regi Babylonis, et servient ei: insuper et bestias terræ dedi ei.

For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they shall serve him: and I have given him the animals of the field also."'"

15 Et dixit Ieremias propheta ad Hananiam prophetam: Audi Hanania: non misit te Dominus, et tu confidere fecisti populum istum in mendacio.

Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, "Hear now, Hananiah: the LORD has not sent you; but you make this people to trust in a lie.

16 Idcirco hæc dicit Dominus: Ecce ego mittam te a facie terræ: hoc anno morieris: adversum enim Dominum locutus es.

Therefore thus says the LORD, 'Look, I will send you away from off the surface of the earth: this year you shall die, because you have spoken rebellion against the LORD.'"

17 Et mortuus est Hananias propheta in anno illo, mense septimo.

So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.
