NOVA VULGATAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad medicens:1 The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying,
2 “Quid est vo bis quod vulgo dicitis proverbium istud in terra Israeldicentes:
“Patres comederunt uvam acerbam,
et dentes filiorum obstupescunt”?
2 What mean ye, that ye use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge?
3 Vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus, non dicetis ultra hoc proverbium in Israel.3 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, ye shall not have occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel.
4 Ecce omnes animae meae sunt: ut anima patris, ita et anima filii mea est; anima,quae peccaverit, ipsa morietur.4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
5 Et vir, si fuerit iustus et fecerit iudiciumet iustitiam,5 But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right,
6 in montibus non comederit et oculos suos non levaverit ad idoladomus Israel et uxorem proximi sui non violaverit et ad mulierem menstruatam nonaccesserit6 And hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neither hath defiled his neighbour's wife, neither hath come near to a menstruous woman,
7 et hominem non afflixerit, pignus debitori reddiderit, per vimnihil rapuerit, panem suum esurienti dederit et nudum operuerit vestimento,7 And hath not oppressed any, but hath restored to the debtor his pledge, hath spoiled none by violence, hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment;
8 adusuram non commodaverit et fenus non acceperit, ab iniquitate averterit manumsuam, iudicium verum fecerit inter virum et virum,8 He that hath not given forth upon usury, neither hath taken any increase, that hath withdrawn his hand from iniquity, hath executed true judgment between man and man,
9 in praeceptis meisambulaverit et iudicia mea custodierit, ut faciat veritatem, hic iustus est,vita vivet, ait Dominus Deus.9 Hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept my judgments, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord GOD.
10 Quod si genuerit filium latronem, effundentem sanguinem et facientem unum deistis,10 If he beget a son that is a robber, a shedder of blood, and that doeth the like to any one of these things,
11 cum ipse haec omnia non fecerit, et etiam in montibus comedentem etuxorem proximi sui polluentem,11 And that doeth not any of those duties, but even hath eaten upon the mountains, and defiled his neighbour's wife,
12 egenum et pauperem affligentem, rapientemrapinas, pignus non reddentem et ad idola levantem oculos suos, abominationemfacientem,12 Hath oppressed the poor and needy, hath spoiled by violence, hath not restored the pledge, and hath lifted up his eyes to the idols, hath committed abomination,
13 ad usuram dantem et fenus accipientem, numquid vivet? Non vivet.Cum universa detestanda haec fecerit, morte morietur; sanguis eius in ipso erit.13 Hath given forth upon usury, and hath taken increase: shall he then live? he shall not live: he hath done all these abominations; he shall surely die; his blood shall be upon him.
14 Quod si genuerit filium, qui videns omnia peccata patris sui, quae fecit,timuerit et non fecerit simile eis:14 Now, lo, if he beget a son, that seeth all his father's sins which he hath done, and considereth, and doeth not such like,
15 super montes non comederit et oculos suosnon levaverit ad idola domus Israel et uxorem proximi sui non violaverit15 That hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, hath not defiled his neighbour's wife,
16 etvirum non afflixerit, pignus non retinuerit et rapinam non rapuerit, panem suumesurienti dederit et nudum operuerit vestimento,16 Neither hath oppressed any, hath not withholden the pledge, neither hath spoiled by violence, but hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment,
17 ab iniuria averterit manumsuam, usuram et fenus non acceperit, iudicia mea fecerit, in praeceptis meisambulaverit, hic non morietur in iniquitate patris sui, sed vita vivet.17 That hath taken off his hand from the poor, that hath not received usury nor increase, hath executed my judgments, hath walked in my statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live.
18 Patereius, quia calumniatus est et fecit rapinas nec bonum operatus est in mediopopuli sui, ecce mortuus est in iniquitate sua.18 As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, spoiled his brother by violence, and did that which is not good among his people, lo, even he shall die in his iniquity.
19 Et dicitis: “Quare nonportavit filius iniquitatem patris?”. Videlicet, quia filius iudicium etiustitiam operatus est, omnia praecepta mea custodivit et fecit illa, vivetvita.19 Yet say ye, Why? doth not the son bear the iniquity of the father? When the son hath done that which is lawful and right, and hath kept all my statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live.
20 Anima, quae peccaverit, ipsa morietur; filius non portabit iniquitatempatris, et pater non portabit iniquitatem filii. Iustitia iusti super eum erit,et impietas impii erit super eum.
20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
21 Si autem impius egerit paenitentiam ab omnibus peccatis suis, quae operatusest, et custodierit universa praecepta mea et fecerit iudicium et iustitiam,vita vivet, non morietur.21 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
22 Omnes iniquitates eius, quas operatus est, nonmemorabuntur ei; in iustitia sua, quam operatus est, vivet.22 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.
23 Numquidvoluntatis meae est mors impii, dicit Dominus Deus, et non ut convertatur a viissuis et vivat?
23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?
24 Si autem averterit se iustus a iustitia sua et fecerit iniquitatem secundumomnes abominationes, quas operari solet impius, numquid vivet? Omnes iustitiaeeius, quas fecerat, non recordabuntur; in praevaricatione, qua praevaricatusest, et in peccato suo, quod peccavit, in ipsis morietur.24 But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.
25 Et dixistis: “Nonest aequa via Domini”. Audite ergo, domus Israel: Numquid via mea non estaequa, et non magis viae vestrae pravae sunt?25 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways unequal?
26 Cum enim averterit se iustus aiustitia sua et fecerit iniquitatem, morietur; in iniustitia, quam operatus est,morietur.26 When a righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and dieth in them; for his iniquity that he hath done shall he die.
27 Et cum averterit se impius ab impietate sua, quam operatus est, etfecerit iudicium et iustitiam, ipse animam suam vivificabit;27 Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive.
28 considerans enimet avertens se ab omnibus iniquitatibus suis, quas operatus est, vita vivet, nonmorietur.28 Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
29 Et dicunt domus Israel: “Non est aequa via Domini”. Numquidviae meae non sunt aequae, domus Israel, et non magis viae vestrae pravae?
29 Yet saith the house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are not your ways unequal?
30 Idcirco unumquemque iuxta vias suas iudicabo, domus Israel, ait Dominus Deus.Convertimini et agite paenitentiam ab omnibus iniquitatibus vestris, et non eritvobis in scandalum iniquitatis.30 Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.
31 Proicite a vobis omnes praevaricationesvestras, in quibus praevaricati estis, et facite vobis cor novum et spiritumnovum. Et quare moriemini, domus Israel?31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
32 Quia nolo mortem morientis, dicitDominus Deus. Revertimini et vivite.
32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.
