Zephaniah 1

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	NOVA VULGATA
1 The word of the Lord that came to Zephaniah the son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah.	1 Verbum Domini, quod factum est ad Sophoniam filium Chusi filii Godoliaefilii Amariae filii Ezechiae, in diebus Iosiae filii Amon regis Iudae.
2 While gathering, I will gather together all things from the face of the earth, says the Lord.	2 “ Auferens auferam omnia a facie terrae, dicit Dominus,
3 I will gather man and cattle; I will gather the flying things of the air and the fish of the sea. And the impious will be a catastrophe. And I will disperse men before the face of the earth, says the Lord.	3 auferam hominem et pecus, auferam volatile caeli et pisces maris. Et ruinae impiorum erunt; et disperdam homines a facie terrae, dicit Dominus.
4 And I will extend my hand over Judah and over all the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And I will disperse from this place the remnant of Baal, and the names of the administrators along with the priests,	4 Et extendam manum meam super Iudam et super omnes habitantes Ierusalem; et disperdam de loco hoc reliquias Baal et nomina aedituorum cum sacerdotibus
5 and those who adore the military campaign over the ceiling of the sky, both those who adore and swear by the Lord, and those who swear by Melchom,	5 et eos, qui adorant super tecta militiam caeli et adorant et iurant in Domino et iurant in Melchom,
6 both those who turn aside from following after the Lord, and those who have not sought the Lord, nor inquired about him.	6 et qui avertuntur de post tergum Domini, et qui non quaerunt Dominum nec investigant eum ”.
7 Be silent before the face of the Lord God. For the day of the Lord is near; for the Lord has prepared a victim, he has sanctified those he has called.	7 Silete a facie Domini Dei, quia iuxta est dies Domini; quia praeparavit Dominus hostiam, sanctificavit vocatos suos.
8 And this shall be: in the day of the victim of the Lord, I will visit upon the leaders, and upon the sons of the king, and upon all who have been clothed with strange garments.	8 “ Et erit in die hostiae Domini: visitabo super principes et super filios regis et super omnes, qui induti sunt veste peregrina;
9 And I will visit upon all who enter arrogantly over the threshold in that day, those who fill the house of the Lord their God with iniquity and deceit.	9 et visitabo super omnem, qui arroganter ingreditur super limen in die illa, qui complent domum domini sui iniquitate et dolo.
10 And this shall be in that day, says the Lord: the voice of an outcry from the fish gate, and a howling from the Second, and a great contrition from the hills.	10 Et erit in die illa, dicit Dominus, vox clamoris a porta Piscium, et ululatus ab urbe Nova, et contritio magna a collibus.
11 Howl, inhabitants of the Pillar. All the people of Canaan have fallen silent. All were ruined who had been wrapped in silver.	11 Ululate, habitatores Pilae, quia interiit omnis populus Chanaan, disperierunt omnes involuti argento.
12 And this shall be in that time: I will scrutinize Jerusalem with lamps, and I will visit upon the men who have become stuck in the dregs, who say in their hearts, “The Lord will not do good, and he will not do evil.”	12 Et erit in tempore illo: scrutabor Ierusalem in lucernis et visitabo super viros defixos in faecibus suis, qui dicunt in cordibus suis: “Non faciet bene Dominus et non faciet male”.
13 And their strength will be in plundering, and their houses in the desert. And they will build houses and not dwell in them, and they will plant vineyards and not drink their wine.	13 Et erunt opes eorum in direptionem, et domus eorum in desertum; et aedificabunt domos et non habitabunt, et plantabunt vineas et non bibent vinum earum ”.
14 The great day of the Lord is near; it is near and exceedingly swift. The voice of the day of the Lord is bitter; the strong will be tested there.	14 Iuxta est dies Domini magnus, iuxta et velox nimis; vox diei Domini amara, tribulabitur ibi fortis.
15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of tribulation and anguish, a day of calamity and misery, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and whirlwinds,	15 Dies irae dies illa, dies tribulationis et angustiae, dies vastitatis et desolationis, dies tenebrarum et caliginis, dies nebulae et turbinis,
16 a day of the trumpet and the trumpet blast over fortified cities and over exalted ramparts.	16 dies tubae et clangoris super civitates munitas et super angulos excelsos.
17 And I will trouble men, and they will walk like the blind, because they have sinned against the Lord. And their blood will be poured out like soil, and their bodies like manure.	17 Et tribulabo homines, et ambulabunt ut caeci, quia Domino peccaverunt; et effundetur sanguis eorum sicut humus, et viscera eorum sicut stercora.
18 Neither their silver, nor their gold, will be able to free them in the day of the wrath of the Lord. All the land will be devoured in the fire of his zeal, for with all speed, he will bring to consummation every inhabitant of the land.	18 Sed et argentum eorum et aurum eorum non poterit liberare eos in die irae Domini; in igne zeli eius devorabitur omnis terra, quia consummationem cum festinatione faciet cunctis habitantibus terram.
