Baruch 3

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 "LORD Almighty, God of Israel, afflicted souls and dismayed spirits call to you.	1 Domine omnipotens, Deus Is rael, anima in angustiis et spiri tus anxiusclamat ad te.
2 Hear, O LORD, for you are a God of mercy; and have mercy on us, who have sinned against you:	2 Audi, Domine, et miserere, quia peccavimus in conspectu tuo;
3 for you are enthroned forever, while we are perishing forever.	3 quia tu sedens es in aeternum, et nos pereuntes in aeternum.
4 LORD Almighty, God of Israel, hear the prayer of Israel's few, the sons of those who sinned against you; they did not heed the voice of the LORD, their God, and the evils cling to us.	4 Domineomnipotens, Deus Israel, audi nunc orationem defunctorum Israel et filiorumeorum, qui peccaverunt in conspectu tuo, qui non audierunt vocem Domini Dei sui,et adhaeserunt nobis mala.
5 Remember at this time not the misdeeds of our fathers, but your own hand and name:	5 Noli memor esse iniquitatum patrum nostrorum, sedmemor esto manus tuae et nominis tui in hoc tempore,
6 for you are the LORD our God; and you, O LORD, we will praise!	6 quia tu es Dominus Deusnoster, et laudabimus te, Domine,
7 For this, you put into our hearts the fear of you: that we may call upon your name, and praise you in our captivity, when we have removed from our hearts all the wickedness of our fathers who sinned against you.	7 quia propter hoc dedisti timorem tuum in cornostrum, ut invocaremus nomen tuum; et laudabimus te in captivitate nostra, quiaavertimus a corde nostro omnem iniquitatem patrum nostrorum, qui peccaverunt inconspectu tuo.
8 Behold us today in our captivity, where you scattered us, a reproach, a curse, and a requital for all the misdeeds of our fathers, who withdrew from the LORD, our God."	8 Ecce nos hodie in captivitate nostra, quo nos dispersisti inopprobrium et in maledictum et in expiationem, secundum omnes iniquitates patrumnostrorum, qui discesserunt a Domino Deo nostro ”.
9 Hear, O Israel, the commandments of life: listen, and know prudence!	9 Audi, Israel, mandata vitae; auribus percipite, ut sciatis prudentiam.
10 How is it, Israel, that you are in the land of your foes, grown old in a foreign land, Defiled with the dead,	10 Quid est, Israel? Quid est quod in terra es inimicorum?
11 accounted with those destined for the nether world?	11 Inveterasti in terra aliena, coinquinatus es mortuis, reputatus es cum eis, qui apud inferos sunt.
12 You have forsaken the fountain of wisdom!	12 Dereliquisti fontem sapientiae!
13 Had you walked in the way of God, you would have dwelt in enduring peace.	13 Si in via Dei ambulasses, habitasses in pace in aeternum.
14 Learn where prudence is, where strength, where understanding; That you may know also where are length of days, and life, where light of the eyes, and peace.	14 Disce, ubi sit prudentia, ubi fortitudo, ubi sit intellectus, ut scias simul, ubi sit longiturnitas dierum et vita, ubi sit lumen oculorum et pax.
15 Who has found the place of wisdom, who has entered into her treasuries?	15 Quis invenit locum eius? Et quis intravit in thesauros eius?
16 Where are the rulers of the nations, they who lorded it over the wild beasts of the earth,	16 Ubi sunt principes gentium et qui dominantur bestiis, quae sunt super terram,
17 and made sport of the birds of the heavens: They who heaped up the silver and the gold in which men trust; of whose possessions there was no end?	17 qui in avibus caeli ludunt,
18 They schemed anxiously for money, but there is no trace of their work:	18 qui argentum thesaurizant et aurum, in quo confidunt homines, neque est finis acquisitionis eorum; qui argentum fabricant et solliciti sunt, nec est inquisitio operum illorum?
19 They have vanished down into the nether world, and others have risen up in their stead.	19 Exterminati sunt et ad inferos descenderunt, et alii loco eorum surrexerunt.
20 Later generations have seen the light, have dwelt in the land, But the way to understanding they have not known,	20 Iuvenes viderunt lumen et habitaverunt super terram; viam autem disciplinae non cognoverunt
21 they have not perceived her paths, or reached her; their offspring were far from the way to her.	21 nec intellexerunt semitas eius; neque susceperunt eam filii eorum, a via eorum longe facti sunt.
22 She has not been heard of in Canaan, nor seen in Teman.	22 Neque audita est in Chanaan neque visa est in Theman.
23 The sons of Hagar who seek knowledge on earth, the merchants of Midian and Teman, the phrasemakers seeking knowledge, These have not known the way to wisdom, nor have they her paths in mind.	23 Filii quoque Agar, qui exquirunt sapientiam super terram, negotiatores Merran et Theman et fabulatores et inquisitores prudentiae: viam autem sapientiae non cognoverunt neque commemorati sunt semitas eius.
24 O Israel, how vast is the house of God, how broad the scope of his dominion:	24 O Israel, quam magna est domus Dei, et ingens locus possessionis eius!
25 Vast and endless, high and immeasurable!	25 Magnus est et non habet finem, excelsus est et immensus.
26 In it were born the giants, renowned at the first, stalwarts, skilled in war.	26 Ibi fuerunt gigantes nominati illi, qui ab initio fuerunt, statura magna, scientes bellum.
27 Not these did God choose, nor did he give them the way of understanding;	27 Non illos elegit Deus neque viam disciplinae dedit illis;
28 They perished for lack of prudence, perished through their folly.	28 et perierunt, quia non habuerunt prudentiam, perierunt propter insipientiam suam.
29 Who has gone up to the heavens and taken her, or brought her down from the clouds?	29 Quis ascendit in caelum et accepit eam et deduxit eam de nubibus?
30 Who has crossed the sea and found her, bearing her away rather than choice gold?	30 Quis transfretavit mare et invenit eam et apportabit eam auro electo?
31 None knows the way to her, nor has any understood her paths.	31 Non est qui noverit viam eius, neque qui cogitet semitam eius.
32 Yet he who knows all things knows her; he has probed her by his knowledge-- He who established the earth for all time, and filled it with four-footed beasts;	32 Sed qui scit omnia, novit eam, adinvenit eam prudentia sua; qui composuit terram in aeternum tempus, implevit eam iumentis quadrupedibus;
33 He who dismisses the light, and it departs, calls it, and it obeys him trembling;	33 qui mittit lumen et vadit, vocavit illud, et oboedivit ei in tremore.
34 Before whom the stars at their posts shine and rejoice;	34 Stellae autem splenduerunt in custodiis suis et laetatae sunt.
35 When he calls them, they answer, "Here we are!" shining with joy for their Maker.	35 Vocavit eas, et dixerunt: “Adsumus”; luxerunt cum laetitia ei, qui fecit eas.
36 Such is our God; no other is to be compared to him:	36 Hic est Deus noster, non aestimabitur alter adversus eum.
37 He has traced out all the way of understanding, and has given her to Jacob, his servant, to Israel, his beloved son.	37 Invenit omnem viam disciplinae et dedit eam Iacob puero suo et Israel dilecto suo.
38 Since then she has appeared on earth, and moved among men.	38 Post haec super terram visa est et inter homines conversata est. Appunti Gli appunti verranno salvati in modo permanente nel tuo browser. Per cancellarli clicca sul pulsante Pulisci Pulisci Chiudi www.scrutatio.it - contatti: [e-mail]
