KING JAMES BIBLEVULGATA
1 Israel is an empty vine, he bringeth forth fruit unto himself: according to the multitude of his fruit he hath increased the altars; according to the goodness of his land they have made goodly images.1 Vitis frondosa Israël,
fructus adæquatus est ei :
secundum multitudinem fructus sui multiplicavit altaria,
juxta ubertatem terræ suæ exuberavit simulacris.
2 Their heart is divided; now shall they be found faulty: he shall break down their altars, he shall spoil their images.2 Divisum est cor eorum, nunc interibunt ;
ipse confringet simulacra eorum,
depopulabitur aras eorum.
3 For now they shall say, We have no king, because we feared not the LORD; what then should a king do to us?3 Quia nunc dicent : Non est rex nobis,
non enim timemus Dominum ;
et rex quid faciet nobis ?
4 They have spoken words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: thus judgment springeth up as hemlock in the furrows of the field.4 Loquimini verba visionis inutilis, et ferietis fœdus ;
et germinabit quasi amaritudo judicium super sulcos agri.
5 The inhabitants of Samaria shall fear because of the calves of Beth-aven: for the people thereof shall mourn over it, and the priests thereof that rejoiced on it, for the glory thereof, because it is departed from it.5 Vaccas Bethaven coluerunt habitatores Samariæ ;
quia luxit super eum populus ejus,
et æditui ejus super eum exsultaverunt
in gloria ejus, quia migravit ab eo.
6 It shall be also carried unto Assyria for a present to king Jareb: Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his own counsel.6 Siquidem et ipse in Assur delatus est,
munus regi ultori.
Confusio Ephraim capiet,
et confundetur Israël in voluntate sua.
7 As for Samaria, her king is cut off as the foam upon the water.7 Transire fecit Samaria regem suum
quasi spumam super faciem aquæ.
8 The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.8 Et disperdentur excelsa idoli, peccatum Israël ;
lappa et tribulus ascendet super aras eorum :
et dicent montibus : Operite nos,
et collibus : Cadite super nos.
9 O Israel, thou hast sinned from the days of Gibeah: there they stood: the battle in Gibeah against the children of iniquity did not overtake them.9 Ex diebus Gabaa peccavit Israël ;
ibi steterunt.
Non comprehendet eos in Gabaa
prælium super filios iniquitatis.
10 It is in my desire that I should chastise them; and the people shall be gathered against them, when they shall bind themselves in their two furrows.10 Juxta desiderium meum corripiam eos :
congregabuntur super eos populi,
cum corripientur propter duas iniquitates suas.
11 And Ephraim is as an heifer that is taught, and loveth to tread out the corn; but I passed over upon her fair neck: I will make Ephraim to ride; Judah shall plow, and Jacob shall break his clods.11 Ephraim vitula docta diligere trituram,
et ego transivi super pulchritudinem colli ejus :
ascendam super Ephraim,
arabit Judas ;
confringet sibi sulcos Jacob.
12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you.12 Seminate vobis in justitia,
et metite in ore misericordiæ.
Innovate vobis novale ;
tempus autem requirendi Dominum,
cum venerit qui docebit vos justitiam.
13 Ye have plowed wickedness, ye have reaped iniquity; ye have eaten the fruit of lies: because thou didst trust in thy way, in the multitude of thy mighty men.13 Arastis impietatem,
iniquitatem messuistis :
comedistis frugem mendacii,
quia confisus es in viis tuis,
in multitudine fortium tuorum.
14 Therefore shall a tumult arise among thy people, and all thy fortresses shall be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Beth-arbel in the day of battle: the mother was dashed in pieces upon her children.14 Consurget tumultus in populo tuo ;
et omnes munitiones tuæ vastabuntur,
sicut vastatus est Salmana a domo ejus qui judicavit Baal
in die prælii, matre super filios allisa.
15 So shall Bethel do unto you because of your great wickedness: in a morning shall the king of Israel utterly be cut off.15 Sic fecit vobis Bethel,
a facie malitiæ nequitiarum vestrarum.
