Numbers 14

DOUAI-RHEIMS	NOVA VULGATA
1 Wherefore the whole multitude crying wept that night.	1 Igitur vociferans omnis tur ba flevit nocte illa,
2 And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron, saying:	2 et mur murati sunt contra Moysen et Aaron cuncti filii Israel dicentes: “ Utinam mortui essemus in Aegypto vel in hac vasta solitudine!
3 Would God that we had died in Egypt and would God we may die in this vast wilderness, and that the Lord may not bring us into this land, lest we fall by the sword, and our wives and children be led away captives. Is it not better to return into Egypt?	3 Cur inducit nos Dominus in terram istam, ut cadamus gladio, et uxores ac liberi nostri ducantur captivi? Nonne melius est reverti in Aegyptum? ”.
4 And they said one to another: Let us appoint a captain, and let us return into Egypt.	4 Dixeruntque alter ad alterum: “ Constituamus nobis ducem et revertamur in Aegyptum! ”.
5 And when Moses and Aaron heard this, they fell down flat upon the ground before the multitude of the children of Israel.	5 Quo audito, Moyses et Aaron ceciderunt proni in terram coram omni congregatione filiorum Israel.
6 But Josue the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephone, who themselves also had viewed the land, rent their garments,	6 At vero Iosue filius Nun et Chaleb filius Iephonne, qui et ipsi lustraverant terram, sciderunt vestimenta sua
7 And said to all the multitude of the children of Israel: The land which we have gone round is very good:	7 et ad omnem congregationem filiorum Israel locuti sunt: “ Terra, quam circuivimus, valde bona est.
8 If the Lord be favourable, he will bring us into it, and give us a land flowing with milk and honey.	8 Si propitius fuerit Dominus, inducet nos in eam et tradet humum lacte et melle manantem.
9 Be not rebellious against the Lord: and fear ye not the people of this land, for we are able to eat them up as bread. All aid is gone from them: the Lord is with us, fear ye not.	9 Nolite rebelles esse contra Dominum neque timeatis populum terrae huius, quia sicut panem ita eos possumus devorare. Recessit ab eis omne praesidium; Dominus nobiscum est, nolite metuere ”.
10 And when all the multitude cried out, and would have stoned them, the glory of the Lord appeared over the tabernacle of the covenant to all the children of Israel.	10 Cumque clamaret omnis congregatio et lapidibus eos vellet opprimere, apparuit gloria Domini super tabernaculum conventus cunctis filiis Israel,
11 And the Lord said to Moses: How long will this people detract me? how long will they not believe me for all the signs that I have wrought before them?	11 et dixit Dominus ad Moysen: “ Usquequo detrahet mihi populus iste? Quousque non credent mihi in omnibus signis, quae feci coram eis?
12 I will strike them therefore with pestilence, and will consume them: but thee I will make a ruler over a great nation, and a mightier than this is.	12 Feriam igitur eos pestilentia atque consumam; te autem faciam in gentem magnam et fortiorem quam haec est ”.
13 And Moses said to the Lord: That the Egyptians, from the midst of whom thou hast brought forth this people,	13 Et ait Moyses ad Dominum: ? Audient Aegyptii, de quorum medio eduxisti populum istum in virtute tua,
14 And the inhabitants of this land, (who have heard that thou, O Lord, art among this people, and art seen face to face, and thy cloud protecteth them, and thou goest before them in a pillar of a cloud by day, and in a pillar of fire by night,)	14 et dicent ad habitatores terrae huius, quia audierunt quod tu, Domine, in populo isto sis et facie videaris ad faciem, et nubes tua protegat illos, et in columna nubis praecedas eos per diem et in columna ignis per noctem.
15 May hear that thou hast killed so great a multitude as it were one man and may say:	15 Et occidisti hunc populum quasi unum hominem, et dicent gentes, quae audierunt auditum tuum:
16 He could not bring the people into the land for which he had sworn, therefore did he kill them in the wilderness.	16 "Non poterat Dominus introducere populum in terram, pro qua iuraverat, idcirco occidit eos in solitudine!".
17 Let their the strength of the Lord be magnified, as thou hast sworn, saying:	17 Magnificetur ergo fortitudo Domini, sicut iurasti dicens:
18 The Lord is patient and full of mercy, taking away iniquity and wickedness, and leaving no man clear, who visitest the sins of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation.	18 "Dominus patiens et multae misericordiae, auferens iniquitatem et scelera nullumque innoxium derelinquens, qui visitas peccata patrum in filios in tertiam et quartam generationem".
19 Forgive, I beseech thee, the sins of this people, according to the greatness of thy mercy, as thou hast been merciful to them from their going out of Egypt unto this place.	19 Dimitte obsecro peccatum populi huius secundum magnitudinem misericordiae tuae, sicut propitius fuisti populo huic de Aegypto usque ad locum istum ”.
20 And the Lord said: I have forgiven according to thy word.	20 Dixitque Dominus: “ Dimisi iuxta verbum tuum.
21 As I live: and the whole earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord.	21 Vivo ego, et implebit gloria Domini universam terram!
22 But yet all the men that have seen my majesty, and the signs that I have done in Egypt, and in the wilderness, and have tempted me now ten times, and have not obeyed my voice,	22 Attamen omnes homines, qui viderunt maiestatem meam et signa, quae feci in Aegypto et in solitudine, et tentaverunt me iam per decem vices nec oboedierunt voci meae,
23 Shall not see the land for which I aware to their fathers, neither shall any one of them that hath detracted me behold it.	23 non videbunt terram, pro qua iuravi patribus eorum; nec quisquam ex illis, qui detraxit mihi, intuebitur eam.
24 My servant Caleb, who being full of another spirit hath followed me, I will bring into this land which he hath gone round: and his seed shall possess it.	24 Servum meum Chaleb, qui plenus alio spiritu secutus est me, inducam in terram hanc, quam circuivit, et semen eius possidebit eam.
25 For the Amalecite and the Chanaanite dwell in the valleys. To morrow remove the camp, and return into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea.	25 Quoniam Amalecites et Chananaeus habitant in vallibus, cras movete castra et revertimini in solitudinem per viam maris Rubri ”.
26 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:	26 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron dicens:
27 How long doth this wicked multitude murmur against me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel.	27 “ Usquequo congregatio haec pessima murmurat contra me? Querelas filiorum Israel audivi.
28 Say therefore to them: As I live, saith the Lord: According as you have spoken in my hearing, so will I do to you.	28 Dic ergo eis: Vivo ego, ait Dominus, sicut locuti estis, audiente me, sic faciam vobis!
29 fin the wilderness shall your carcasses lie. All you that were numbered from twenty years old and upward, and have murmured against me,	29 In solitudine hac iacebunt cadavera vestra. Omnes, qui numerati estis a viginti annis et supra et murmurastis contra me,
30 Shall not enter into the land, over which I lifted up my bend to make you dwell therein, except Caleb the son of Jephone, and Josue the son of Nun.	30 non intrabitis terram, super quam levavi manum meam, ut habitare vos facerem, praeter Chaleb filium Iephonne et Iosue filium Nun.
31 But your children, of whom you said, that they should be a prey to the enemies, will I bring in: that they may see the land which you have despised.	31 Parvulos autem vestros, de quibus dixistis quod praedae hostibus forent, introducam, ut videant terram, quae vobis displicuit.
32 Your carcasses shall lie in the wilderness.	32 Vestra cadavera iacebunt in solitudine hac;
33 Your children shall wander in the desert forty years, and shall bear your fornication, until the carcasses of their fathers be consumed ill the desert,	33 filii vestri erunt pastores in deserto annis quadraginta et portabunt fornicationem vestram, donec consumantur cadavera vestra in deserto.
34 According to the number of the forty days, wherein you viewed the land: year shall be counted for a day. And forty years you shall receive your iniquities, and shall know my revenge:	34 Iuxta numerum quadraginta dierum, quibus considerastis terram ­ annus pro die imputabitur ­ quadraginta annis portabitis iniquitates vestras et scietis ultionem meam.
35 For as I have spoken, so will I do to all this wicked multitude, that hath risen up together against me: in this wilderness shall it faint away and die.	35 Ego Dominus locutus sum, ita faciam omni congregationi huic pessimae, quae consurrexit adversum me: in solitudine hac deficiet et morietur ”.
36 Therefore all the men, whom Moses had sent to view the land, and who at their return had made the whole multitude to murmur against him, speaking ill of the land that it was naught,	36 Igitur omnes viri, quos miserat Moyses ad contemplandam terram et qui reversi murmurare fecerant contra eum omnem congregationem detrahentes terrae quod esset mala,
37 Died and were struck in the sight of the Lord.	37 mortui sunt atque percussi in conspectu Domini.
38 But Josue .the son of Nun. and Caleb the son of Jephone lived, of all them that had gone to view the land.	38 Iosue autem filius Nun et Chaleb filius Iephonne vixerunt ex omnibus, qui perrexerant ad considerandam terram.
39 And Moses spoke all these words to all the children of Israel, and the people mourned exceedingly.	39 Locutusque est Moyses universa verba haec ad omnes filios Israel, et luxit populus nimis.
40 And behold rising up very early in the morning, they went up to the top of the mountain, and said: We are ready to go up to the place, of which the Lord hath spoken: for we have sinned.	40 Et ecce mane primo surgentes ascenderunt verticem montis atque dixerunt: “ Parati sumus ascendere ad locum, de quo Dominus locutus est, quia peccavimus ”.
41 And Moses said to them: Why transgress you the word of the Lord, which shall not succeed prosperously with you?	41 Quibus Moyses: “ Cur, inquit, transgredimini verbum Domini, quod vobis non cedet in prosperum?
42 Go not up, for the Lord is not with you: lest you fall before your enemies.	42 Nolite ascendere, non enim est Dominus vobiscum, ne corruatis coram inimicis vestris!
43 The Amalecite and the Chanaanite are before you, and by their sword you shall fall, because you would not consent to the Lord, neither will the Lord be with you.	43 Amalecites et Chananaeus ante vos sunt, quorum gladio corruetis, eo quod nolueritis acquiescere Domino, nec erit Dominus vobiscum ”.
44 But they being blinded went up to the top of the mountain. But the ark of the testament of the Lord and Moses departed not from the camp.	44 At illi contenebrati ascenderunt in verticem montis; arca autem foederis Domini et Moyses non recesserunt de castris.
45 And the Amalecite came down, and the Chanaanite that dwelt in the mountain: and smiting and slaying them pursued them as far as Horma.	45 Descenditque Amalecites et Chananaeus, qui habitabat in monte, et percutiens eos atque concidens persecutus est eos usque Horma.
