Geremia 14

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Quod factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam de sic citate.	1 The Word of the Lord that came to Jeremias concerning the words of the drought.
2 Luget Iuda, et portae eius languescunt et contristatae iacent in terra, et clamor Ierusalem ascendit.	2 Judea hath mourned, and the gates thereof are fallen, and are become obscure on the ground, and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up.
3 Maiores eorum miserunt minores suos ad aquam: venerunt ad cisternas, non invenerunt aquam; reportaverunt vasa sua vacua, confusi sunt et afflicti et operuerunt capita sua.	3 The great ones sent their inferiors to the water: they came to draw, they found no water, they carried back their vessels empty: they were confounded and afflicted, and covered their heads.
4 Propter terrae vastitatem, quia non venit pluvia in terram, confusi sunt agricolae, operuerunt capita sua.	4 For the destruction of the land, because there came no rain upon the earth, the husbandmen were confounded, they covered their heads.
5 Nam et cerva in agro peperit et reliquit, quia non erat herba.	5 Yea, the hind also brought forth in the field, and left it, because there was no grass.
6 Et onagri steterunt in collibus, traxerunt aerem quasi thoes; defecerunt oculi eorum, quia non erat herba.	6 And the wild asses stood upon the rocks, they snuffed up the wind like dragons, their eyes failed, because there was no grass.
7 “ Si iniquitates nostrae testificantur adversus nos, Domine, fac propter nomen tuum, quoniam multae sunt aversiones nostrae, tibi peccavimus.	7 If our iniquities have testified against us, O Lord, do thou it for thy name's sake, for our rebellions are many, we have sinned against thee.
8 Exspectatio Israel, salvator eius in tempore tribulationis, quare quasi peregrinus es in terra et quasi viator declinans ad pernoctandum?	8 O expectation of Israel, the Saviour thereof in time of trouble: why wilt thou be a stranger in the land, and as a wayfaring man turning in to lodge?
9 Quare es velut vir attonitus, ut fortis, qui non potest salvare? Tu autem in medio nostri es, Domine, et nomen tuum invocatum est super nos; ne derelinquas nos ”.	9 Why wilt thou be as a wandering man, as a mighty man that cannot save? but thou, O Lord, art among us, and thy name is called upon by us, forsake us not.
10 Haec dicit Dominus populo huic: “ Ita diligunt vagari, pedes suos nonprohibent et Domino non placent ”. Nunc recordatus est iniquitatum eorum etvisitat peccata eorum.	10 Thus saith the Lord to his people, that have loved to move their feet, and have not rested, and have not pleased the Lord: He will now remember their iniquities, and visit their sins.
11 Et dixit Dominus ad me: “ Noli orare pro populo isto in bonum.	11 And the Lord said to me: Pray not for this people for their good.
12 Cumieiunaverint, non exaudiam preces eorum; et, si obtulerint holocautomata etoblationes, non suscipiam ea; quoniam gladio et fame et peste consumam eos ”.	12 When they fast I will not hear their prayers: and if they offer holocausts and victims, I will not receive them: for I will consume them by the sword, and by famine, and by the pestilence.
13 Et dixi: “ Heu, Domine Deus! Ecce prophetae dicunt eis: “Non videbitisgladium, et fames non erit in vobis, sed pacem veram dabit vobis in loco isto””.	13 And I said: Ah, ah, ah, O Lord God, the prophets say to them: You shall not see the sword, and there shall be no famine among you, but he will give you true peace in this place.
14 Et dixit Dominus ad me: “ Falso prophetae vaticinantur in nomine meo:non misi eos et non praecepi eis neque locutus sum ad eos; visionem mendacem etdivinationem et fraudulentiam et seductionem cordis sui prophetant vobis.	14 And the Lord said to me: The prophets prophesy falsely in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, nor have I spoken to them: they prophesy unto you a lying vision, and divination and deceit, and the seduction of their own heart.
15 Idcirco haec dicit Dominus contra prophetas, qui prophetant in nomine meo, quosego non misi, dicentes: “Gladius et fames non erit in terra hac”: In gladioet fame consumentur prophetae illi;	15 Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the prophets that prophecy in my name, whom I did not send, that say: Sword and famine shall not be in this land: By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed.
16 et homines, quibus prophetant, eruntproiecti in viis Ierusalem prae fame et gladio, et non erit qui sepeliat eos:ipsi et uxores eorum, filii et filiae eorum, et effundam super eos malum suum.	16 And the people to whom they prophecy, shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the fanmine and the sword, and there shall be none to bury them: they and their wives, their sons and their daughters, and I will pour out their wickedness upon them.
17 Et dices ad eos verbum istud: Deducant oculi mei lacrimam per noctem et diem, et non taceant, quoniam contritione magna contrita est virgo filia populi mei, plaga pessima vehementer.	17 And thou shalt speak this word to them: Let my eyes shed down tears night and day, and let them not cease, because the virgin daughter of my people is afflicted with a great affliction, with an exceeding grievous evil.
18 Si egressus fuero ad agros, ecce occisi gladio; et, si introiero in civitatem, ecce attenuati fame; propheta quoque et sacerdos abierunt per terram nescientes ”.	18 If I go forth into the fields, behold the slain with the sword: and if I enter into the city, behold them that are consumed with famine. The prophet also and the priest are gone into a land which they knew not.
19 Numquid proiciens abiecisti Iudam, aut Sion abominata est anima tua? Quare ergo percussisti nos, ita ut nulla sit sanitas? Exspectavimus pacem, et non est bonum, et tempus curationis, et ecce turbatio.	19 Hast thou utterly cast away Juda, or hath thy soul abhorred Sion? why then hast thou struck us, so that there is no healing for us? we have looked for peace, and there is no good: and for the time of healing, and behold trouble.
20 Cognovimus, Domine, impietates nostras, iniquitates patrum nostrorum, quia peccavimus tibi.	20 We acknowledge, O Lord, our wickedness, the iniquities of our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.
21 Ne des nos in opprobrium propter nomen tuum, ne facias contumeliam solio gloriae tuae; recordare, ne irritum facias foedus tuum nobiscum.	21 Give us not to be a reproach, for thy name's sake, and do not disgrace in us the throne of thy glory: remember, break not thy covenant with us.
22 Numquid sunt in sculptilibus gentium, qui pluant, aut caeli possunt dare imbres? Nonne tu es Dominus Deus noster, quem exspectamus? Tu enim fecisti omnia haec.	22 Are there any among the graven things of the Gentiles that can send rain? or can the heavens give showers? art not thou the Lord our God, whom we have looked for? for thou hast made all these things.
