Jeremiah 16

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
1 This message came to me from the LORD:	1 Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens :
2 Do not marry any woman; you shall not have sons or daughters in this place,	2 Non accipies uxorem, et non erunt tibi filii et filiæ in loco isto.
3 for thus says the LORD concerning the sons and daughters who will be born in this place, the mothers who will give them birth, the fathers who will beget them in this land:	3 Quia hæc dicit Dominus super filios et filias qui generantur in loco isto, et super matres eorum, quæ genuerunt eos, et super patres eorum, de quorum stirpe sunt nati in terra hac :
4 Of deadly disease they shall die. Unlamented and unburied they will lie like dung on the ground. Sword and famine will make an end of them, and their corpses will become food for the birds of the sky and the beasts of the field.	4 Mortibus ægrotationum morientur : non plangentur, et non sepelientur : in sterquilinium super faciem terræ erunt, et gladio et fame consumentur : et erit cadaver eorum in escam volatilibus cæli et bestiis terræ.
5 Go not into a house of mourning, the LORD continued: go not there to lament or offer sympathy. For I have withdrawn my friendship from this people, says the LORD, my kindness and my pity.	5 Hæc enim dicit Dominus : Ne ingrediaris domum convivii, neque vadas ad plangendum, neque consoleris eos, quia abstuli pacem meam a populo isto, dicit Dominus, misericordiam et miserationes.
6 They shall die, the great and the lowly, in this land, and shall go unburied and unlamented. No one will gash himself or shave his head for them.	6 Et morientur grandes et parvi in terra ista : non sepelientur, neque plangentur, et non se incident, neque calvitium fiet pro eis.
7 They will not break bread with the bereaved to console them in their bereavement; they will not give them the cup of consolation to drink over the death of father or mother.	7 Et non frangent inter eos lugenti panem ad consolandum super mortuo, et non dabunt eis potum calicis ad consolandum super patre suo et matre.
8 Enter not a house where people are celebrating, to sit with them eating and drinking.	8 Et domum convivii non ingrediaris, ut sedeas cum eis, et comedas, et bibas.
9 For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Before your very eyes and during your lifetime I will silence from this place the cry of joy and the cry of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.	9 Quia hæc dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israël : Ecce ego auferam de loco isto, in oculis vestris, et in diebus vestris, vocem gaudii et vocem lætitiæ, vocem sponsi et vocem sponsæ.
10 When you proclaim all these words to this people and they ask you: "Why has the LORD pronounced all these great evils against us? What is our crime? What sin have we committed against the LORD, our God?"--	10 Et cum annuntiaveris populo huic omnia verba hæc, et dixerint tibi : Quare locutus est Dominus super nos omne malum grande istud ? quæ iniquitas nostra, et quod peccatum nostrum, quod peccavimus Domino Deo nostro ?
11 you shall answer them: It is because your fathers have forsaken me, says the LORD, and followed strange gods, which they served and worshiped; but me they have forsaken, and my law they have not observed.	11 dices ad eos : Quia dereliquerunt me patres vestri, ait Dominus, et abierunt post deos alienos, et servierunt eis, et adoraverunt eos, et me dereliquerunt, et legem meam non custodierunt.
12 And you have done worse than your fathers. Here you are, every one of you, walking in the hardness of his evil heart instead of listening to me.	12 Sed et vos pejus operati estis quam patres vestri : ecce enim ambulat unusquisque post pravitatem cordis sui mali, ut me non audiat.
13 I will cast you out of this land into a land that neither you nor your fathers have known; there you can serve strange gods day and night, because I will not grant you my mercy.	13 Et ejiciam vos de terra hac in terram quam ignoratis, vos et patres vestri : et servietis ibi diis alienis, die ac nocte, qui non dabunt vobis requiem.
14 However, days will surely come, says the LORD, when it will no longer be said, "As the LORD lives, who brought the Israelites out of Egypt";	14 Propterea ecce dies veniunt, dicit Dominus, et non dicetur ultra : Vivit Dominus qui eduxit filios Israël de terra Ægypti,
15 but rather, "As the LORD lives, who brought the Israelites out of the land of the north and out of all the countries to which he had banished them." I will bring them back to the land which I gave their fathers.	15 sed : Vivit Dominus qui eduxit filios Israël de terra aquilonis, et de universis terris ad quas ejeci eos : et reducam eos in terram suam, quam dedi patribus eorum.
16 Look! I will send many fishermen, says the LORD, to catch them. After that, I will send many hunters to hunt them out from every mountain and hill and from the clefts of the rocks.	16 Ecce ego mittam piscatores multos, dicit Dominus, et piscabuntur eos : et post hæc mittam eis multos venatores, et venabuntur eos de omni monte, et de omni colle, et de cavernis petrarum.
17 For my eyes are upon all their ways; they are not hidden from me, nor does their guilt escape my view.	17 Quia oculi mei super omnes vias eorum : non sunt absconditæ a facie mea, et non fuit occultata iniquitas eorum ab oculis meis.
18 I will at once repay them double for their crime and their sin of profaning my land with their detestable corpses of idols, and filling my heritage with their abominations.	18 Et reddam primum duplices iniquitates et peccata eorum, quia contaminaverunt terram meam in morticinis idolorum suorum, et abominationibus suis impleverunt hæreditatem meam.
19 O LORD, my strength, my fortress, my refuge in the day of distress! To you will the nations come from the ends of the earth, and say, "Mere frauds are the heritage of our fathers, empty idols of no use."	19 Domine, fortitudo mea, et robur meum, et refugium meum in die tribulationis, ad te gentes venient ab extremis terræ, et dicent : Vere mendacium possederunt patres nostri, vanitatem quæ eis non profuit.
20 Can man make for himself gods? These are not gods.	20 Numquid faciet sibi homo deos, et ipsi non sunt dii ?
21 Look, then: I will give them knowledge; this time I will leave them in no doubt Of my strength and my power: they shall know that my name is LORD.	21 Idcirco ecce ego ostendam eis per vicem hanc, ostendam eis manum meam, et virtutem meam, et scient quia nomen mihi Dominus.
