1 Et haec sunt verba epistulae, quam misit Ieremias propheta de Ierusalemad reliquias seniorum transmigrationis et ad sacerdotes et ad prophetas et adomnem populum, quem traduxerat Nabuchodonosor de Ierusalem in Babylonem,1 Now these are the words of the letter which Jeremias, the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the residue of the ancients that were carried into captivity, and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people, whom Nabuchodonosor had carried away from Jerusalem to Babylon:
2 postquam egressus est Iechonias rex et domina et eunuchi et principes Iudae etIerusalem et faber et inclusor de Ierusalem,2 After that Jechonias the king, and the queen, and the eunuchs, and the princes of Juda, and of Jerusalem, and the craftsman, and the engravers were departed out of Jerusalem :
3 in manu Elasa filii Saphan etGamariae filii Helciae, quos misit Sedecias rex Iudae ad Nabuchodonosor regemBabylonis in Babylonem dicens:
3 By the hand of Elasa the son of Saphan, and Gamarias the son of Helcias, whom Sedecias king of Juda sent to Babylon to Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, saying:
4 “ Haec dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel, omni transmigrationi, quamtranstuli de Ierusalem in Babylonem:4 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, to all that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be carried away from Jerusalem to Babylon:
5 Aedificate domos et habitate et plantatehortos et comedite fructum eorum,5 Build ye houses, and dwell in them: and plant orchards, and eat the fruit of them.
6 accipite uxores et generate filios et filiaset date filiis vestris uxores et filias vestras date viris, et pariant filios etfilias, et multiplicamini ibi et nolite esse pauci numero.6 Take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters: and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, and let them bear sons and daughters: and be ye multiplied there, and be not few in number.
7 Et quaerite pacemcivitatis, ad quam transmigrare vos feci, et orate pro ea ad Dominum, quia inpace illius erit pax vobis.7 And seek the peace of the city, to which I have caused you to be carried away captives; and pray to the Lord for it: for in the peace thereof shall be your peace.
8 Haec enim dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel:Non vos seducant prophetae vestri, qui sunt in medio vestrum, et divini vestri,et ne attendatis ad somnia vestra, quae vos somniatis,8 For thus saith the Lord of hoses the God of Israel: Let not your prophets that are in the midst of you, and your diviners deceive you: and give no heed to your dreams which you dream:
9 quia falso ipsiprophetant vobis in nomine meo, et non misi eos, dicit Dominus.9 For they prophesy falsely to you in my name: and I have not sent them, saith the Lord.
10 Quia haecdicit Dominus: Cum impleti fuerint in Babylone septuaginta anni, visitabo vos etsuscitabo super vos verbum meum bonum, ut reducam vos ad locum istum.10 For thus saith the Lord: When the seventy years shall begin to be accomplished in Babylon, I will visit you: and I will perform my good word in your favour, to bring you again to this place.
11 Egoenim scio cogitationes, quas ego cogito super vos, ait Dominus, cogitationespacis et non afflictionis, ut dem vobis posteritatem et spem.11 For I know the thoughts that I think towards you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of affliction, to give you an end and patience.
12 Et invocabitisme et ibitis; et orabitis me, et ego exaudiam vos.12 And you shall call upon me, and you shall go: and you shall pray to me, and I will hear you.
13 Quaeretis me etinvenietis, cum quaesieritis me in toto corde vestro.13 You shall seek me, and shall And me: when you shall seek me with all your heart.
14 Et inveniar a vobis,ait Dominus, et reducam captivitatem vestram et congregabo vos de universisgentibus et de cunctis locis, ad quae expuli vos, dicit Dominus; et reverti vosfaciam ad locum, de quo transmigrare vos feci.14 And I will be found by you, saith the Lord: and I will bring back your captivity, and I will gather you out of all nations, and from all the places to which I have driven you out, saith the Lord: and I will bring you back from the place to which I caused you to be carried away captive.
15 Quia dixistis: “Suscitavit nobis Dominus prophetas in Babylone”.15 Because you have said: The Lord hath raised us up prophets in Babylon:
16 Quia haec dicit Dominus ad regem, qui sedet super solium David, et ad omnempopulum habitatorem urbis huius, ad fratres vestros, qui non sunt egressivobiscum in transmigrationem,16 For thus saith the Lord to the king that sitteth upon the throne of David, and to all the people that dwell in this city, to your brethren that are not gone forth with you into captivity.
17 haec dicit Dominus exercituum: Ecce mittam ineis gladium et famem et pestem et ponam eos quasi ficus malas, quae comedi nonpossunt, eo quod pessimae sint;17 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Behold I will send upon them the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: and I will make them like bad figs that cannot be eaten, because they are very bad.
18 et persequar eos in gladio et in fame et inpestilentia et dabo eos in vexationem universis regnis terrae, in maledictionemet in stuporem et in sibilum et in opprobrium cunctis gentibus, ad quas egoeieci eos,18 And I will persecute them with the sword, and with famine, and pith the pestilence: and I will give them up unto affliction to all the kingdoms of the earth: to be a curse, and an astonishment, and a hissing, and a reproach to all the nations to which I have driven them out:
19 eo quod non audierint verba mea, dicit Dominus, quae misi ad eosper servos meos prophetas, de nocte consurgens et mittens, et non audistis,dicit Dominus.19 Because they have not hearkened to my words, saith the Lord: which I sent to them by my servants the prophets, rising by night, and sending: and you have not heard, saith the Lord.
20 Vos ergo audite verbum Domini, omnis transmigratio, quam emiside Ierusalem in Babylonem.
20 Hear ye therefore the word of the Lord, all ye of the captivity, whom I have sent out from Jerusalem to Babylon.
21 Haec dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel, ad Achab filium Colaiae et adSedeciam filium Maasiae, qui prophetant vobis in nomine meo mendaciter: Ecce egotradam eos in manu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis, et percutiet eos in oculisvestris;21 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, to Achab the son of Colias, and to Sedecias the son of Maasias, who prophesy unto you in my name falsely: Behold I will deliver them up into the hands of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon: and he shall kill them before your eyes.
22 et assumetur ex eis maledictio omni transmigrationi Iudae, quae estin Babylone, dicentium: “Ponat te Dominus sicut Sedeciam et sicut Achab, quosfrixit rex Babylonis in igne!”;22 And of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captivity of Juda, that are in Babylon, saying: The Lord make thee like Sedecias, and like Achab, whom the king of Babylon fried in the fire :
23 pro eo quod fecerint stultitiam in Israelet moechati sunt in uxores amicorum suorum et locuti sunt verbum in nomine meomendaciter, quod non mandavi eis. Ego enim scio et sum testis, dicit Dominus.
23 Because they have acted folly in Israel, and have committed adultery with the wives of their friends, and have spoken lying words in my name, which I commanded them not: I am the judge and the witness, saith the Lord.
24 Et ad Semeiam Nehelamiten dices:24 And to Semeias the Nehelamite thou shalt say:
25 Haec dicit Dominus exercituum, DeusIsrael, pro eo quod misisti in nomine tuo epistulas ad omnem populum, qui est inIerusalem, et ad Sophoniam filium Maasiae sacerdotem et ad universos sacerdotesdicens:25 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Because thou hast sent letters in thy name to all the people that are in Jerusalem, and to Sophonias the son of Maasias the priest, and to all the priests, saying:
26 “Dominus dedit te sacerdotem pro Ioiada sacerdote, ut sispraefectus in domo Domini super omnem virum arrepticium et prophetantem, utmittas eum in nervum et in vincula.26 The Lord hath made thee priest instead of Joiada the priest, that thou shouldst be ruler in the house of the Lord, over every man that raveth and prophesieth, to put him in the stocks, and into prison.
27 Et nunc quare non increpasti IeremiamAnathothiten, qui prophetat vobis?27 And now why hast thou not rebuked Jeremias the Anathothite, who prophesieth to you?
28 Quia super hoc misit ad nos in Babylonemdicens: Longum est; aedificate domos et habitate et plantate hortos et comeditefructum eorum” ”.
28 For he hath also sent to us in Babylon, saying: It is a long time: build ye houses, and dwell in them: and plant gardens, and eat the fruits of them.
29 Legit ergo Sophonias sacerdos epistulam istam in auribus Ieremiae prophetae.29 So Sophonias the priest read this letter, in the hearing of Jeremias the prophet.
30 Et factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam dicens:30 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:
31 “ Mitte ad omnemtransmigrationem dicens: Haec dicit Dominus ad Semeiam Nehelamiten: Pro eo quodprophetavit vobis Semeias, et ego non misi eum, et fecit vos confidere inmendacio,31 Send to all them of the captivity, saying: Thus saith the Lord to Semeias the Nehelamite: Because Semeias hath prophesied to you, and I sent him not: and hath caused you to trust in a lie :
32 idcirco haec dicit Dominus: Ecce ego visitabo super SemeiamNehelamiten et super semen eius; non erit ei vir sedens in medio populi huius,et non videbit bonum, quod ego faciam populo meo, ait Dominus, quiapraevaricationem locutus est adversus Dominum ”.
32 Therefore thus saith the Lord: behold I will visit upon Semeias the Nehelamite, and upon his seed: he shall not have a man to sit in the midst of this people, and he shall not see the good that I will do to my people, saith the Lord: because he hath spoken treason against the Lord.
