NOVA VULGATA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Et accesserunt omnes princi pes bellatorum, scilicet Iohanan filiusCaree et Iezonias filius Osaiae et universum vulgus, a parvo usque ad magnum,	1 And all the leaders of the warriors, and Johanan, the son of Kareah, and Azariah, the son of Hoshaiah, and the rest of the common people, from the least even to the greatest, drew near.
2 dixeruntque ad Ieremiam prophetam: “ Cadat oratio nostra in conspectu tuo, etora pro nobis ad Dominum Deum tuum pro universis reliquiis istis, quia derelictisumus pauci de pluribus, sicut oculi tui nos intuentur;	2 And they said to Jeremiah the prophet: “Let our supplication fall before your sight. And pray for us to the Lord your God, on behalf of this entire remnant. For few out of many have been left behind, just as your eyes behold us.
3 et annuntiet nobisDominus Deus tuus viam, per quam pergamus, et verbum, quod faciamus ”.	3 And so, may the Lord your God announce to us the way that we must travel, and the word that we must accomplish.”
4 Dixitautem ad eos Ieremias propheta: “ Audivi. Ecce ego oro ad Dominum Deum vestrumsecundum verba vestra; omne verbum, quodcumque responderit pro vobis, indicabovobis nec celabo vos quidquam ”.	4 Then Jeremiah, the prophet, said to them: “I have listened. Behold, I will pray to the Lord your God according to your words. And whatever word he will respond to me, I will declare to you. And I will conceal nothing from you.”
5 Et illi dixerunt ad Ieremiam: “ SitDominus inter nos testis verax et fidelis, si non iuxta omne verbum, in quomiserit te Dominus Deus tuus ad nos, sic faciemus.	5 And they said to Jeremiah: “May the Lord be the witness between us of truth and fidelity, if we do not act according to whatever word the Lord your God will send by you to us.
6 Sive bonum est sive malum,voci Domini Dei nostri, ad quem mittimus te, oboediemus, ut bene sit nobis, cumaudierimus vocem Domini Dei nostri ”.	6 Whether it is for good or for harm, we will obey the voice of the Lord our God, to whom we are sending you. So may it be well with us, when we heed the voice of the Lord our God.”
7 Cum autem completi essent decem dies, factum est verbum Domini ad Ieremiam;	7 Then, when ten days had been completed, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah.
8 vocavitque Iohanan filium Caree et omnes principes bellatorum, qui erant cum eo,et universum populum a minimo usque ad magnum	8 And he called Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the leaders of warriors who were with him, and all the people, from the least even to the greatest.
9 et dixit ad eos: “ Haec dicitDominus, Deus Israel, ad quem misistis me, ut prosternerem preces vestras inconspectu eius:	9 And he said to them: “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, to whom you have sent me, so that I may present your petitions in his sight:
10 Si quiescentes manseritis in terra hac, aedificabo vos et nondestruam, plantabo et non evellam; iam enim placatus sum super malo, quod fecivobis.	10 If you dwell quietly in this land, I will build you up, and I will not tear you down. I will plant you, and I will not uproot you. For now I have been appeased by the harm that I have done to you.
11 Nolite timere a facie regis Babylonis, quem vos pavidi formidatis;nolite metuere eum, dicit Dominus, quia vobiscum sum ego, ut salvos vos faciamet eruam de manu eius;	11 Do not be afraid before the face of the king of Babylon, whom you have dreaded with great fear. Do not dread him, says the Lord. For I am with you, so that I may accomplish your salvation, and so that I may rescue you from his hand.
12 et dabo vobis, ut misericordiam inveniatis, et ipsemiserebitur vestri et habitare vos faciet in terra vestra.	12 And I will give you mercies, and I will take pity on you, and I will cause you to live in your own land.
13 Si autem dixeritis vos: “Non habitabimus in terra ista”, nec audieritisvocem Domini Dei vestri	13 But if you say: ‘We will not live in this land, nor will we heed the voice of the Lord our God,’
14 dicentes: “Nequaquam, sed ad terram Aegyptipergemus, ubi non videbimus bellum et clangorem tubae non audiemus et famem nonsustinebimus et ibi habitabimus”,	14 saying: ‘Never! Instead, we will travel to the land of Egypt, where we will not see war, and we will not hear the blast of the trumpet, and we will not endure famine. And there we shall live.’
15 propter hoc nunc audite verbum Domini,reliquiae Iudae: Haec dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israel: Si posueritisfaciem vestram, ut ingrediamini Aegyptum, et intraveritis, ut ibi peregrinemini,	15 Because of this, hear now the word of the Lord, O remnant of Judah: Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: If you set your faces so as to advance into Egypt, and if you enter so that you may live there,
16 gladius, quem vos formidatis, ibi comprehendet vos in terra Aegypti, etfames, pro qua estis solliciti, adhaerebit vobis in Aegypto, et ibi moriemini.	16 the sword which you dread will overtake you there, in the land of Egypt, and the famine, about which you are anxious, will cling to you in Egypt, and there you shall die.
17 Omnesque viri, qui posuerunt faciem suam, ut ingrediantur Aegyptum etperegrinentur ibi, morientur gladio et fame et peste: nullus de eis remanebitnec effugiet a facie mali, quod ego afferam super eos.	17 And all the men, who have set their faces so that they may advance to Egypt in order to live there, will die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence. None of them will remain, nor will they escape from the face of the evil that I will bring over them.
18 Quia haec dicitDominus exercituum, Deus Israel: Sicut effusus est furor meus et indignatio measuper habitatores Ierusalem, sic effundetur indignatio mea super vos, cumingressi fueritis Aegyptum, et eritis in exsecrationem et in stuporem et inmaledictum et in opprobrium et nequaquam ultra videbitis locum istum ”.	18 For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Just as my fury and my indignation has been enflamed over the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so will my indignation be enflamed over you, when you will have entered into Egypt. And so you will be an oath, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a disgrace. And you will never see this place again.
19 Verbum Domini super vos, reliquiae Iudae: “ Nolite intrare Aegyptum;scientes scietis quia obtestatus sum vos hodie,	19 This is the word of the Lord concerning you, O remnant of Judah: Do not choose to enter into Egypt, for certainly you understand what I have sworn to you this day.
20 quia decepistis animasvestras. Vos enim misistis me ad Dominum Deum nostrum dicentes: “Ora pro nobisad Dominum Deum nostrum et iuxta omnia, quaecumque dixerit tibi Dominus Deusnoster, sic annuntia nobis, et faciemus”.	20 For you have deceived your own souls. For you have sent me to the Lord our God, saying: ‘Pray on our behalf to the Lord our God. And in accord with anything whatsoever that the Lord our God will tell you, announce this to us, and we will do it.’
21 Et annuntiavi vobis hodie, et nonaudistis vocem Domini Dei vestri super universis, pro quibus misit me ad vos.	21 And I have announced it to you this day, and you have not heeded the voice of the Lord your God, concerning everything about which he has sent me to you.
22 Nunc ergo scientes scietis quia gladio et fame et peste moriemini in loco, adquem voluistis intrare et ibi peregrinari ”.	22 Therefore, know with certainty now, that you will die by the sword, and by famine, and by pestilence, in the place which you wish to enter so that you may live there.”
