Judith 9

KING JAMES BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 Judith fell upon her face, and put ashes upon her head, and uncovered the sackcloth wherewith she was clothed; and about the time that the incense of that evening was offered in Jerusalem in the house of the Lord Judith cried with a loud voice, and said,	1 Iudith autem procidit in faciem suam et imposuit cinerem super caput suumet scidit tunicam suam et denudavit, quod induerat, cilicium; et, in ipso quodoblatum erat in Ierusalem in domum Dei incensum vespere illo, clamavit Iudithvoce magna ad Dominum et dixit:
2 O Lord God of my father Simeon, to whom thou gavest a sword to take vengeance of the strangers, who loosened the girdle of a maid to defile her, and discovered the thigh to her shame, and polluted her virginity to her reproach; for thou saidst, It shall not be so; and yet they did so:	2 “ Domine, Deus patris mei Simeon, cuidedisti in manu gladium in ultionem alienigenarum, qui solverunt cingulumvirginis in coinquinationem et denudaverunt femur in confusionem etcoinquinaverunt matricem in improperium. Dixisti enim: “Non sic erit!”; etfecerunt.
3 Wherefore thou gavest their rulers to be slain, so that they dyed their bed in blood, being deceived, and smotest the servants with their lords, and the lords upon their thrones;	3 Pro quibus dedisti principes eorum in occisionem et torum eorum, quierubuit seductione eorum, seductum in sanguinem; et percussisti servos superpotentes et potentes super thronos eorum.
4 And hast given their wives for a prey, and their daughters to be captives, and all their spoils to be divided among thy dear children; which were moved with thy zeal, and abhorred the pollution of their blood, and called upon thee for aid: O God, O my God, hear me also a widow.	4 Et dedisti mulieres eorum in praedamet filias in captivitatem et omnia spolia in divisionem filiorum a tedelectorum, qui zelaverunt zelum tuum et abominaverunt coinquinationem sanguinissui et invocaverunt te in adiutorium. Deus, Deus meus, exaudi me viduam.
5 For thou hast wrought not only those things, but also the things which fell out before, and which ensued after; thou hast thought upon the things which are now, and which are to come.	5 Tuenim fecisti priora illorum et illa et, quae postea et quae nunc et quae futurasunt, cogitasti; et facta sunt, quae cogitasti.
6 Yea, what things thou didst determine were ready at hand, and said, Lo, we are here: for all thy ways are prepared, and thy judgments are in thy foreknowledge.	6 Et astiterunt, quae voluisti,et dixerunt: “Ecce adsumus”. Omnes enim viae tuae paratae, et creatura tuain praescientia.
7 For, behold, the Assyrians are multiplied in their power; they are exalted with horse and man; they glory in the strength of their footmen; they trust in shield, and spear, and bow, and sling; and know not that thou art the Lord that breakest the battles: the Lord is thy name.	7 Ecce enim Assyrii repleti sunt in virtute sua et exaltati sunt in equo etascensore, gloriati sunt in brachio peditum, speraverunt in clipeis et lancea etarcu et fundibula et nescierunt quoniam tu es Dominus, qui conteris bella;
8 Throw down their strength in thy power, and bring down their force in thy wrath: for they have purposed to defile thy sanctuary, and to pollute the tabernacle where thy glorious name resteth and to cast down with sword the horn of thy altar.	8 Dominus nomen est tibi. Tu allide illorum vires, aeterne Deus, comminue illorumplenitudinem in virtute tua et deduc fortitudinem eorum in ira tua. Volueruntenim polluere sancta tua, coinquinare tabernaculum requiei nominis maiestatistuae et deicere ferro cornu altaris tui.
9 Behold their pride, and send thy wrath upon their heads: give into mine hand, which am a widow, the power that I have conceived.	9 Respice in superbiam eorum, dimitteiram tuam in capita eorum; da in manu mea viduae, quam cogitavi, virtutem,
10 Smite by the deceit of my lips the servant with the prince, and the prince with the servant: break down their stateliness by the hand of a woman.	10 etpercute servum ex labiis seductionis meae super principem et principem superservum eius; quassa elationem in manu viduae.
11 For thy power standeth not in multitude nor thy might in strong men: for thou art a God of the afflicted, an helper of the oppressed, an upholder of the weak, a protector of the forlorn, a saviour of them that are without hope.	11 Non enim in multitudine virtustua, nec potentia tua neque datum tuum in fortibus, sed humilium es Deus etminorum adiutorium, infirmorum susceptor, abiectorum protector, desperatorumsalvator.
12 I pray thee, I pray thee, O God of my father, and God of the inheritance of Israel, Lord of the heavens and earth, Creator of the waters, king of every creature, hear thou my prayer:	12 Etiam, etiam, Deus patris mei et Deus hereditatis Israel, dominator caelorumet terrae, creator aquarum, rex totius creaturae tuae, exaudi deprecationem meam
13 And make my speech and deceit to be their wound and stripe, who have purposed cruel things against thy covenant, and thy hallowed house, and against the top of Sion, and against the house of the possession of thy children.	13 et da verbum meum et suasionem in vulnus et livorem eorum, qui adversumtestamentum tuum et domum tuam sanctam et verticem Sion et domum retentionisfiliorum tuorum cogitaverunt dura.
14 And make every nation and tribe to acknowledge that thou art the God of all power and might, and that there is none other that protecteth the people of Israel but thou.	14 Et fac super omnem gentem tuam et omnemtribum scientiam, ut sciant quoniam tu Deus es universae potestatis et virtutis,et non est alius defensor generis Israel praeter te ”.
