Jeremiæ 30
1 Hoc verbum, quod factum est ad Ieremiam a Domino, dicens:
The worde, that came to Ieremiah from the Lord, saying,
2 Haec dicit Dominus Deus Israel, dicens: Scribe tibi omnia verba, quae locutus sum ad te, in libro.
Thus speaketh the Lord God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the wordes, that I haue spoken vnto thee in a booke.
3 Ecce enim dies veniunt, dicit Dominus: et convertam conversionem populi mei Israel et Iuda, ait Dominus: et convertam eos ad terram, quam dedi patribus eorum: et possidebunt eam.
For loe, the dayes come, saith the Lord, that I wil bring againe the captiuitie of my people Israel and Iudah, saith the Lord: for I will restore them vnto the lande, that I gaue to their fathers, and they shall possesse it.
4 Et haec verba, quae locutus est Dominus ad Israel et ad Iuda:
Againe, these are the wordes that the Lord spake concerning Israel, and concerning Iudah.
5 Quoniam haec dicit Dominus: Vocem terroris audivimus: formido, et non est pax.
For thus saith the Lord, wee haue heard a terrible voyce, of feare and not of peace.
6 Interrogate, et videte si generat masculus: quare ergo vidi omnis viri manum super lumbum suum, quasi parturientis, et conversae sunt universae facies in auruginem?
Demand now and beholde, if man trauayle with childe? wherefore doe I beholde euery man with his hands on his loynes as a woman in trauaile, and all faces are turned into a palenesse?
7 Vae, quia magna dies illa, nec est similis eius: tempusque tribulationis est Iacob, et ex ipsa salvabitur.
Alas, for this day is great: none hath bene like it: it is euen the time of Iaakobs trouble, yet shall he be deliuered from it.
8 Et erit in die illa, ait Dominus exercituum: conteram iugum eius de collo tuo, et vincula eius dirumpam, et non dominabuntur ei amplius alieni:
For in that day, sayth the Lord of hostes, I will breake his yoke from off thy necke, and breake thy bondes, and strangers shall no more serue themselues of him.
9 sed servient Domino Deo suo, et David regi suo, quem suscitabo eis.
But they shall serue the Lord their God, and Dauid their King, whom I will raise vp vnto them.
10 Tu ergo non timeas serve meus Iacob, ait Dominus, neque paveas Israel: quia ecce ego salvabo te de terra longinqua, et semen tuum de terra captivitatis eorum: et revertetur Iacob, et quiescet, et cunctis affluet bonis, et non erit quem formidet:
Therefore feare not, O my seruant Iaakob, saith the Lord, neither be afrayde, O Israel: for loe, I will deliuer thee from a farre countrey, and thy seede from the lande of their captiuitie, and Iaakob shall turne againe, and shalbe in rest and prosperitie and none shall make him afraide.
11 quoniam tecum ego sum, ait Dominus, ut salvem te: faciam enim consummationem in cunctis Gentibus, in quibus dispersi te: te autem non faciam in consummationem: sed castigabo te in iudicio, ut non videaris tibi innoxius.
For I am with thee, sayth the Lord, to saue thee: though I vtterly destroy all the nations where I haue scattered thee, yet will I not vtterly destroy thee, but I will correct thee by iudgement, and not vtterly cut thee off.
12 Quia haec dicit Dominus: Insanabilis fractura tua, pessima plaga tua.
For thus saith the Lord, Thy bruising is incurable, and thy wound is dolorous.
13 Non est qui iudicet iudicium tuum ad alligandum: curationum utilitas non est tibi.
There is none to iudge thy cause, or to lay a plaister: there are no medicines, nor help for thee.
14 Omnes amatores tui obliti sunt tui, teque non quaerent: plaga enim inimici percussi te castigatione crudeli: propter multitudinem iniquitatis tuae dura facta sunt peccata tua.
All thy louers haue forgotten thee: they seeke thee not: for I haue striken thee with the wound of an enemie, and with a sharpe chastisement for ye multitude of thine iniquities, because thy sinnes were increased.
15 Quid clamas super contritione tua? insanabilis est dolor tuus: propter multitudinem iniquitatis tuae, et propter dura peccata tua feci haec tibi.
Why cryest thou for thine affliction? thy sorowe is incurable, for the multitude of thine iniquities: because thy sinnes were increased, I haue done these things vnto thee.
16 Propterea omnes, qui comedunt te, devorabuntur: et universi hostes tui in captivitatem ducentur: et qui te vastant, vastabuntur, cunctosque praedatores tuos dabo in praedam.
Therefore all they that deuoure thee, shall be deuoured, and all thine enemies euery one shall goe into captiuitie: and they that spoyle thee, shalbe spoyled, and all they that robbe thee, wil I giue to be robbed.
17 Obducam enim cicatricem tibi, et a vulneribus tuis sanabo te, dicit Dominus. Quia eiectam vocaverunt te Sion: Haec est, quae non habebat requirentem.
For I will restore health vnto thee, and I will heale thee of thy woundes, saith the Lord, because they called thee, The cast away, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.
18 Haec dicit Dominus: Ecce ego convertam conversionem tabernaculorum Iacob, et tectis eius miserebor, et aedificabitur civitas in excelso suo, et templum iuxta ordinem suum fundabitur.
Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I will bring againe the captiuitie of Iaakobs tentes, and haue compassion on his dwelling places: and the citie shalbe builded vpon her owne heape, and the palace shall remaine after the maner thereof.
19 Et egredietur de eis laus, voxque ludentium: et multiplicabo eos, et non minuentur: et glorificabo eos, et non attenuabuntur.
And out of them shall proceede thankesgiuing, and the voyce of them that are ioyous, and I will multiplie them, and they shall not bee fewe: I will also glorifie them, and they shall not be diminished.
20 Et erunt filii eius sicut a principio, et coetus eius coram me permanebit: et visitabo adversum omnes qui tribulant eum.
Their children also shall be as afore time, and their congregation shall be established before me: and I will visite all that vexe them.
21 Et erit dux eius ex eo: et princeps de medio eius producetur: et applicabo eum, et accedet ad me. quis enim iste est, qui applicet cor suum ut appropinquet mihi, ait Dominus?
And their noble ruler shall be of themselues, and their gouernour shall proceede from the middes of them, and I will cause him to draw neere, and approche vnto me: for who is this that directeth his heart to come vnto mee, saith the Lord?
22 Et eritis mihi in populum, et ego ero vobis in Deum.
And ye shall be my people, and I will bee your God.
23 Ecce turbo Domini, furor egrediens, procella ruens, in capite impiorum conquiescet.
Beholde, the tempest of the Lord goeth foorth with wrath: the whirlewinde that hangeth ouer, shall light vpon the head of the wicked.
24 Non avertet iram indignationis Dominus, donec faciat et compleat cogitationem cordis sui: in novissimo dierum intelligetis ea.
The fierce wrath of the Lord shall not returne, vntill he haue done, and vntill he haue performed the intents of his heart: in the latter dayes ye shall vnderstand it.
