Jeremiæ 33
1 Et factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam secundo, cum adhuc clausus esset in atrio carceris, dicens:
Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet confined in the court of the prison, saying,
2 Hæc dicit Dominus qui facturus est, et formaturus illud, et paraturus, Dominus nomen eius.
Thus saith the LORD the maker of this, the LORD that formed it, to establish it; the LORD [is] his name;
3 Clama ad me, et exaudiam te: et annunciabo tibi grandia, et firma quæ nescis.
Call to me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
4 Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israel ad domos urbis huius, et ad domos regis Iuda, quæ destructæ sunt, et ad munitiones, et ad gladium
For thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are thrown down by the mounts, and by the sword;
5 venientium ut dimicent cum Chaldæis, et impleant eas cadaveribus hominum, quos percussi in furore meo et in indignatione mea, abscondens faciem meam a civitate hac, propter omnem malitiam eorum.
They come to fight with the Chaldeans, but [it is] to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slain in my anger and in my fury, and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city.
6 Ecce ego obducam eis cicatricem et sanitatem, et curabo eos: et revelabo illis deprecationem pacis et veritatis.
Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.
7 Et convertam conversionem Iuda, et conversionem Ierusalem: et ædificabo eos sicut a principio.
And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.
8 Et emundabo illos ab omni iniquitate sua, in qua peccaverunt mihi: et propitius ero cunctis iniquitatibus eorum, in quibus dereliquerunt mihi, et spreverunt me.
And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, by which they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, by which they have sinned, and by which they have transgressed against me.
9 Et erit mihi in nomen, et in gaudium, et in laudem, et in exultationem cunctis gentibus terræ, quæ audierint omnia bona, quæ ego facturus sum eis: et pavebunt, et turbabuntur in universis bonis, et in omni pace, quam ego faciam eis.
And it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise, and an honor before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do to them: and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I procure to it.
10 Hæc dicit Dominus: Adhuc audietur in loco isto (quem vos dicitis esse desertum, eo quod non sit homo nec iumentum: in civitatibus Iuda, et foris Ierusalem, quæ desolatæ sunt absque homine, et absque habitatore, et absque pecore)
Thus saith the LORD; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say [shall be] desolate without man and without beast, [even] in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast,
11 vox gaudii et vox lætitiæ, vox sponsi et vox sponsæ, vox dicentium: Confitemini Domino exercituum, quoniam bonus Dominus, quoniam in æternum misericordia eius: et portantium vota in domum Domini: reducam enim conversionem terræ sicut a principio, dicit Dominus.
The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the LORD of hosts: for the LORD [is] good; for his mercy [endureth] for ever: [and] of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD. For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the LORD.
12 Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum: Adhuc erit in loco isto deserto absque homine, et absque iumento, et in cunctis civitatibus eius, habitaculum pastorum accubantium gregum.
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Again in this place, which is desolate without man and without beast, and in all its cities, shall be a habitation of shepherds causing [their] flocks to lie down.
13 In civitatibus montuosis, et in civitatibus campestribus, et in civitatibus, quæ ad Austrum sunt: et in terra Beniamin, et in circuitu Ierusalem, et in civitatibus Iuda adhuc transibunt greges ad manum numerantis, ait Dominus.
In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the vale, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that counteth [them], saith the LORD.
14 Ecce dies veniunt, dicit Dominus: et suscitabo verbum bonum, quod locutus sum ad domum Israel et ad domum Iuda.
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised to the house of Israel and to the house of Judah.
15 In diebus illis, et in tempore illo germinare faciam David germen iustitiæ: et faciet iudicium et iustitiam in terra.
In those days, and at that time, will I cause the branch of righteousness to grow up to David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.
16 In diebus illis salvabitur Iuda, et Ierusalem habitabit confidenter: et hoc est nomen, quod vocabunt eum, Dominus iustus noster.
In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell in safety: and this [is the name] by which she shall be called, JEHOVAH our righteousness.
17 Quia hæc dicit Dominus: Non interibit de David vir, qui sedeat super thronum domus Israel.
For thus saith the LORD; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;
18 Et de Sacerdotibus et de Levitis non interibit vir a facie mea, qui offerat holocautomata, et incendat sacrificum, et cædat victimas omnibus diebus.
Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt-offerings, and to kindle meat-offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.
19 Et factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam, dicens:
And the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying,
20 Hæc dicit Dominus: Si irritum potest fieri pactum meum cum die, et pactum meum cum nocte, ut non sit dies et nox in tempore suo:
Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, so that there should not be day and night in their season;
21 Et pactum meum irritum esse poterit cum David servo meo, ut non sit ex eo filius qui regnet in throno eius, et Levitæ et Sacerdotes ministri mei.
[Then] also may my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.
22 Sicuti enumerari non possunt stellæ cæli, et metiri arena maris: sic multiplicabo semen David servi mei, et Levitas ministros meos.
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister to me.
23 Et factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam, dicens:
Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying,
24 Numquid non vidisti quid populus hic locutus sit, dicens: Duæ cognationes, quas elegerat Dominus, abiectæ sunt: et populum meum despexerunt, eo quod non sit ultra gens coram eis?
Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which the LORD hath chosen, he hath even cast them off? thus they have despised my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.
25 Hæc dicit Dominus: Si pactum meum inter diem et noctem, et leges cælo et terræ non posui:
Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant [is] not with day and night, [and if] I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;
26 equidem et semen Iacob et David servi mei proiiciam, ut non assumam de semine eius principes seminis Abraham, Isaac, et Iacob: reducam enim conversionem eorum, et miserebor eis.
Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob, and David my servant, [so] that I will not take [any] of his seed [to be] rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; for I will cause their captivity to return, and have mercy on them.
