NEW JERUSALEMNOVA VULGATA
1 Disaster! Land of the whirring locust beyond the rivers of Cush,1 Vae terrae alarum strepitantium,
quae est trans flumina Aethiopiae!
2 who send ambassadors by sea, in little reed-boats across the waters! Go, swift messengers to a nationtal and bronzed, to a people feared far and near, a mighty and masterful nation whose country is criss-crossedwith rivers.2 Quae mittit in mari legatos
et in vasis papyri super aquas:
“ Ite, nuntii veloces,
ad gentem proceram et lucidam,
ad populum terribilem,
prope et procul,
gentem robustam et conculcantem,
cuius flumina scindunt terram ”.
3 Al you who inhabit the world, you who people the earth, when the signal is hoisted on the mountains,you wil see, when the ram's-horn is sounded, you wil hear.3 Omnes habitatores orbis
et in terra commorantes,
cum elevatum fuerit signum in montibus, videbitis
et, cum clanguerit tuba, audietis.
4 For this is what Yahweh has told me, 'I shall sit here quietly looking down, like the burning heat in thedaytime, like a dewy mist in the heat of harvest.'4 Quia haec dixit Dominus ad me:
“ Quiescam et considerabo in loco meo,
sicut calor torrens orta iam luce
et sicut nubes roris in aestu messis ”.
5 For, before the harvest, once the flowering is over and blossom turns into ripening grape, the brancheswil be cut off with pruning knives, and the shoots taken off, cut away.5 Etenim ante vindemiam, cum consummatus fuerit flos,
et uva germinans maturescens erit,
praecidet ramusculos falcibus
et propagines abscindet et proiciet;
6 Al has been abandoned to the mountain birds of prey and the wild animals: the birds of prey wilsummer on them, and al the wild animals winter on them.6 et relinquentur simul avibus montium
et bestiis terrae;
et aestate erunt super ea volucres,
et omnes bestiae terrae super illa hiemabunt.
7 Then, an offering will be brought to Yahweh Sabaoth on behalf of a people tal and bronzed, on behalfof a people feared far and near, on behalf of a mighty and masterful nation whose country is criss-crossed withrivers: to the place where the name of Yahweh Sabaoth resides, Mount Zion.7 In tempore illo deferetur munus Domino exercituum a populo procero et lucido,a populo terribili, prope et procul, a gente robusta et conculcante, cuiusterram flumina scindunt, ad locum nominis Domini exercituum, montem Sion.
