NOVA VULGATANEW JERUSALEM
1 Vae terrae alarum strepitantium,
quae est trans flumina Aethiopiae!
1 Disaster! Land of the whirring locust beyond the rivers of Cush,
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 ”.
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.
3 Omnes habitatores orbis
et in terra commorantes,
cum elevatum fuerit signum in montibus, videbitis
et, cum clanguerit tuba, audietis.
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.
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 ”.
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.'
5 Etenim ante vindemiam, cum consummatus fuerit flos,
et uva germinans maturescens erit,
praecidet ramusculos falcibus
et propagines abscindet et proiciet;
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.
6 et relinquentur simul avibus montium
et bestiis terrae;
et aestate erunt super ea volucres,
et omnes bestiae terrae super illa hiemabunt.
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.
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.
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.
