Jeremiah 44

DOUAI-RHEIMS	NOVA VULGATA
1 The word that came to Jeremias, concerning all the Jews that dwelt in the land of Egypt, dwelling in Magdal, and in Taphnis, and in Memphis, and in the land of Phatures, saying:	1 Verbum, quod factum est per Ieremiam ad omnes Iudaeos, qui habitabant interra Aegypti, habitantes in Magdolo et in Taphnis et in Memphi et in terraPhatures, dicens:
2 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: You have seen all this evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Juda: and behold they are desolate this day, and there is not an inhabitant in them:	2 “ Haec dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel: Vos vidistisomne malum istud, quod adduxi super Ierusalem et super omnes urbes Iudae; etecce desertae sunt hodie, et non est in eis habitator
3 Because of the wickedness which they have committed, to provoke me to wrath, and to go and offer sacrifice, and worship other gods, which neither they, nor you, nor your fathers knew.	3 propter malitiam, quamfecerunt, ut me ad iracundiam provocarent et irent, ut sacrificarent et colerentdeos alienos, quos nesciebant et illi et vos et patres vestri.
4 And I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising early, and sending, and saying: Do not commit this abominable thing, which I hate.	4 Et misi ad vosomnes servos meos prophetas, de nocte consurgens mittensque et dicens: Nolitefacere verbum abominationis huiuscemodi, quam odivi.
5 But they heard not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their evil ways, and not to sacrifice to strange gods.	5 Et non audierunt necinclinaverunt aurem suam, ut converterentur a malis suis et non sacrificarentdiis alienis;
6 Wherefore my indignation and my fury was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem: and they are turned to desolation and waste, as at this day.	6 et effusa est indignatio mea et furor meus et succensa est incivitatibus Iudae et in plateis Ierusalem, et versae sunt in solitudinem etvastitatem secundum diem hanc.
7 And now thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Why do you commit this great evil against your own souls, that there should die of you man and woman, child and suckling out of the midst of Juda, and no remnant should be left you:	7 Et nunc haec dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel: Quare vos facitis malumgrande contra animas vestras, ut intereat ex vobis vir et mulier, parvulus etlactans de medio Iudae, nec relinquatur vobis quidquam residuum,
8 In that you provoke me to wrath with the works of your hands, by sacrificing to other gods in the land of Egypt, into which you are come to dwell there: and that you should perish, and be a curse, and a reproach to all the nations of the earth?	8 provocantesme in operibus manuum vestrarum, sacrificando diis alienis in terra Aegypti, inquam ingressi estis, ut ibi peregrinemini, et dissipet vos, et sitis inmaledictionem et in opprobrium cunctis gentibus terrae?
9 Have you forgotten the evils of your fathers, and the evils of the kings of Juda, and the evils of their wives, and your evils, and the evils of your wives, that they have done in the land of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?	9 Numquid obliti estismala patrum vestrorum et mala regum Iudae et mala uxorum eius et mala vestra etmala uxorum vestrarum, quae fecerunt in terra Iudae et in plateis Ierusalem?
10 They are not cleansed even to this day: neither have they feared, nor walked in the law of the Lord, nor in my commandments, which I set before you and your fathers.	10 Non sunt contriti usque ad diem hanc et non timuerunt et non ambulaverunt inlege mea et in praeceptis meis, quae dedi coram vobis et coram patribus vestris.
11 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will set my face upon you for evil: and I will destroy all Juda.	11 Ideo haec dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel: Ecce ego ponam faciem meamin vobis in malum et disperdam omnem Iudam.
12 And I will take the remnant of Juda that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt, and to dwell there: and they shall be all consumed in the land of Egypt: they shall fall by the sword, and by the famine: and they shall be consumed from the least even to the greatest, by the sword, and by the famine shall they die: and they shall be for an execration, and for a wonder, and for a curse, and for a reproach.	12 Et assumam reliquias Iudae, quiposuerunt facies suas, ut ingrederentur terram Aegypti et peregrinarentur ibi,et consumentur omnes in terra Aegypti: cadent in gladio et in fame etconsumentur a minimo usque ad maximum, in gladio et in fame morientur; et eruntin exsecrationem et in stuporem et in maledictionem et in opprobrium.
13 And I will visit them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have visited Jerusalem by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence.	13 Etvisitabo super habitatores terrae Aegypti, sicut visitavi super Ierusalem, ingladio et in fame et in peste:
14 And there shall be none that shall escape, and remain of the remnant of the Jews that are gone to sojourn in the land of Egypt: and that shall return into the land of Juda, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there: there shall none return but they that shall flee.	14 et non erit qui effugiat et sit residuus dereliquiis Iudaeorum, qui venerunt, ut peregrinarentur in terra Aegypti etreverterentur in terram Iudae, ad quam ipsi elevant animas suas, ut revertanturet habitent ibi; non revertentur, nisi qui fugerint ”.
15 Then all the men that knew that their wives sacrificed to other gods: and all the women of whom there stood by a great multitude, and all the people of them that dwelt in the land of Egypt in Phatures, answered Jeremias, saying:	15 Responderunt autem Ieremiae omnes viri, scientes quod sacrificarent uxoreseorum diis alienis, et universae mulieres, quarum stabat multitudo grandis, etomnis populus habitantium in terra Aegypti in Phatures, dicentes:
16 As for the word which thou hast spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we will not hearken to thee:	16 “Sermonem, quem locutus es ad nos in nomine Domini, non audiemus ex te,
17 But we will certainly do every word that shall proceed out of our own mouth, to sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we and our fathers have done, our kings, and our princes in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem: and we were filled with bread, and it was well with us, and we saw no evil.	17 sedfacientes faciemus omne verbum, quod egressum est de ore nostro, ut sacrificemusreginae caeli et libemus ei libamina, sicut fecimus nos et patres nostri, regesnostri et principes nostri in urbibus Iudae et in plateis Ierusalem, et saturatisumus panibus et bene nobis erat malumque non vidimus.
18 But since we left off to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword, and by famine.	18 Ex eo autem tempore,quo cessavimus sacrificare reginae caeli et libare ei libamina, indigemusomnibus et gladio et fame consumpti sumus.
19 And if we offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and pour out drink offerings to her: did we make cakes to worship her, to pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?	19 Quod si nos sacrificamus reginaecaeli et libamus ei libamina, numquid sine viris nostris fecimus ei placentas adeffingendum eam et libandum ei libamina? ”.
20 And Jeremias spoke to all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had given him that answer, saying:	20 Et dixit Ieremias ad omnem populum, adversum viros et adversum mulieres etadversum universam plebem, qui responderant ei verbum, dicens:
21 Was it not the sacrifice that you offered in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and Sour fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, which the Lord hath remembered, and hath it not entered into his heart?	21 “ Numquidnon sacrificium, quod sacrificastis in civitatibus Iudae et in plateisIerusalem, vos et patres vestri, reges vestri et principes vestri et populusterrae, horum recordatus est Dominus, et ascendit super cor eius?
22 So that the Lord could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed: therefore your land is become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.	22 Et nonpoterat Dominus ultra portare propter malitiam operum vestrorum et propterabominationes, quas fecistis; et facta est terra vestra in desolationem et instuporem et in maledictum, eo quod non sit habitator, sicut est dies haec.
23 Because you have sacrificed to idols, and have sinned against the Lord: and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord, and have not walked in his law, and in his commandments, and in his testimonies: therefore are these evils come upon you, as at this day.	23 Propterea quod sacrificaveritis et peccaveritis Domino et non audieritis vocemDomini et in lege et in praeceptis et in testimoniis eius non ambulaveritis,idcirco evenerunt vobis mala haec, sicut est dies haec ”.
24 And Jeremias said to all the people, and to all the women : Hear ye the word of the Lord, all Juda, you that dwell in the land of Egypt:	24 Dixit autem Ieremias ad omnem populum et ad universas mulieres: “ Auditeverbum Domini, omnis Iuda, qui estis in terra Aegypti.
25 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, saying: You and your wives have spoken with your mouth, and fulfilled with your hands, saying: Let us perform our vows which we have made, to offer sacrifice to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her: you have fulfilled your vows, and have performed them indeed.	25 Haec dicit Dominusexercituum, Deus Israel, dicens: Vos et uxores vestrae locuti estis ore vestroet manibus vestris implestis dicentes: “Faciamus vota nostra, quae vovimus, utsacrificemus reginae caeli et libemus ei libamina”. Implete vota vestra etopere perpetrate ea.
26 Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord, all Juda, you that dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold I have sworn by my great name, saith the Lord: that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Juda, in the land of Egypt, saying: The Lord God liveth.	26 Ideo audite verbum Domini, omnis Iuda, qui habitatis interra Aegypti: Ecce ego iuravi in nomine meo magno, ait Dominus, quia nequaquamultra vocabitur nomen meum ex ore omnis viri Iudae dicentis: “Vivit DominusDeus”, in omni terra Aegypti.
27 Behold I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Juda that are in the land of Egypt, shall be consumed, by the sword, and by famine, till there be an end of them.	27 Ecce ego vigilabo super eos in malum et nonin bonum, et consumentur omnes viri Iudae, qui sunt in terra Aegypti, gladio etfame, donec penitus consumantur.
28 And a few men that shall flee from the sword, shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Juda: and all the remnant of Juda that are gone into the land of Egypt to dwell there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine, or theirs.	28 Et, qui fugerint gladium, revertentur deterra Aegypti in terram Iudae, viri pauci, et scient omnes reliquiae Iudae, quaeingressae sunt terram Aegypti, ut peregrinarentur ibi, cuius sermo compleatur,meus an illorum.
29 And this shall be a sign to you, saith the Lord, that I will punish you in this place: that you may know that my words shall be accomplished indeed against you for evil.	29 Et hoc vobis signum, ait Dominus, quod visitem ego super vos in loco isto, utsciatis quia vere complebuntur sermones mei contra vos in malum.
30 Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will deliver Pharao Ephree king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life: as I delivered Sedecias king of Juda into the hand of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon his enemy, and that sought his life.	30 Haec dicitDominus: Ecce ego tradam pharaonem Ophree, regem Aegypti, in manu inimicorumeius et in manu quaerentium animam illius, sicut tradidi Sedeciam regem Iudae inmanu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis inimici sui et quaerentis animam eius ”.
