Tobit 13

DOUAI-RHEIMS	NOVA VULGATA
1 And Tobias the elder opening his mouth, blessed the Lord, and said: Thou art great, O Lord, for ever, and thy kingdom is unto all ages:	1 Et scripsit orationem Thobi in laetitiam et dixit:
2 For thou scourgest, and thou savest: thou leadest down to hell, and bringest up again: and there is none that can escape thy hand.	2 “ Benedictus Deus vivens in aevum, et regnum illius, quia ipse flagellat et miseretur, deducit usque ad inferos deorsum et reducit a perditione maiestate sua, et non est qui effugiat manum eius.
3 Give glory to the Lord, ye children of Israel, and praise him in the sight of the Gentiles:	3 Confitemini illi, filii Israel, coramnationibus, quia ipse dispersit vos in illis
4 Because he hath therefore scattered you among the Gentiles, who know not him, that you may declare his wonderful works, and make them know that there is no other almighty God besides him.	4 et ibi ostendit maiestatem suam. Et exaltate illum coram omni vivente, quoniam Dominus noster, et ipse est pater noster, et ipse est Deus noster in omnia saecula.
5 He hath chastised us for our iniquities: and he will save us for his own mercy.	5 Flagellabit vos ob iniquitates vestras et omnium miserebitur vestrum et colliget vos ab omnibus nationibus, ubicumque dispersi fueritis.
6 See then what he hath done with us, and with fear and trembling give ye glory to him: and extol the eternal King of worlds in your works.	6 Cum conversi fueritis ad illum in toto corde vestro et in tota anima vestra, ut faciatis coram illo veritatem, tunc revertetur ad vos et non abscondet a vobis faciem suam amplius. Et nunc aspicite, quae fecit vobiscum, et confitemini illi in toto ore vestro. Benedicite Dominum iustitiae et exaltate regem saeculorum. Ego in terra captivitatis meae confiteor illi et ostendo virtutem et maiestatem eius genti peccatorum. Convertimini, peccatores, et facite iustitiam coram illo. Quis scit, si velit vos et faciat vobis misericordiam?
7 As for me, I will praise him in the land of my captivity: because he hath shewn his majesty toward a sinful nation.	7 Ego et anima mea regi caeli laetationes dicimus, et anima mea laetabitur omnibus diebus vitae suae.
8 Be converted therefore, ye sinners, and do justice before God, believing that he will shew his mercy to you.	8 Benedicite Dominum, omnes electi; et omnes, laudate maiestatem illius. Agitedies laetitiae et confitemini illi.
9 And I and my soul will rejoice in him.	9 Ierusalem, civitas sancta, flagellabit te in operibus manuum tuarum.
10 Bless ye the Lord, all his elect, keep days of joy, and give glory to him.	10 Confitere Domino in bono opere et benedic regem saeculorum, ut iterum tabernaculum tuum aedificetur in te cum gaudio, et laetos faciat in te omnes captivos et diligat in te omnes miseros in omniasaecula saeculorum.
11 Jerusalem, city of God, the Lord hath chastised thee for the works of thy hands.	11 Lux splendida fulgebit in omnibus finibus terrae; nationes multae venient tibi ex longinquo et a novissimis partibus terrae ad nomen sanctum tuum et munera sua in manibus suis habentes regi caeli. Generationes generationum dabunt in te laetitiam, et nomen electae erit in saecula saeculorum.
12 Give glory to the Lord for thy good things, and bless the God eternal, that he may rebuild his tabernacle in thee, and may call back all the captives to thee, and thou mayst rejoice for ever and ever.	12 Maledicti omnes, qui dixerint verbum durum. Maledicti erunt omnes, qui deponunt te et destruunt muros tuos, et omnes, qui subvertunt turres tuas et qui incendunt habitationes tuas. Etbenedicti erunt omnes, qui timent te in aevum.
13 Thou shalt shine with a glorious light: and all the ends of the earth shall worship thee.	13 Tunc gaude et laetare in filiis iustorum, quoniam omnes colligentur et benedicent Domino aeterno.
14 Nations from afar shall come to thee: and shall bring gifts, and shall adore the Lord in thee, and shall esteem thy land as holy.	14 Felices, qui diligunt te, et felices, qui gaudebunt in pace tua. Et beati omnes homines, qui contristabuntur in omnibus flagellis tuis, quoniam in te gaudebunt et videbunt omne gaudium tuum in aeternum.
15 For they shall call upon the great name in thee.	15 Anima mea, benedic Domino, regi magno,
16 They shall be cursed that shall despise thee: and they shall be condemned that shall blaspheme thee: and blessed shall they be that shall build thee up.	16 quia in Ierusalem civitate aedificabitur domus illius in omnia saecula. Felix ero, si fuerint reliquiae seminis mei ad videndam claritatem tuam et confitendum regi caeli. Ostia Ierusalem sapphiro et smaragdo aedificabuntur, et lapide pretioso omnes muri tui; et turres Ierusalem auro aedificabuntur, et propugnacula eius auro mundo.
17 But thou shalt rejoice in thy children, because they shall all be blessed, and shall be gathered together to the Lord.	17 Plateae Ierusalem carbunculo sternentur et lapide Ophir;
18 Blessed are all they that love thee, and that rejoice in thy peace.	18 et ostia Ierusalem cantica laetitiae dicent, et omnes vici eius loquentur: “Alleluia. Benedictus Deus Israel, et benedicti, qui benedicent nomen sanctum, in aeternum et adhuc!” ”.
19 My soul, bless thou the Lord, because the Lord our God hath delivered Jerusalem his city from all her troubles.
20 Happy shall I be if there shall remain of my seed, to see the glory of Jerusalem.
21 The gates of Jerusalem shall be built of sapphire, and of emerald, and all the walls thereof round about of precious stones.
22 All its streets shall be paved with white and clean stones: and Alleluia shall be sung in its streets.
23 Blessed be the Lord, who hath exalted it, and may he reign over it for ever and ever, Amen.
