NOVA VULGATAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 Vae mihi, quia factum est mihi
sicut congregata messe,
sicut collecta vindemia!
Non est botrus ad comedendum,
nec praecoqua ficus, quam desideravit anima mea.
1 Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grapegleanings of the vintage: there is no cluster to eat: my soul desired the firstripe fruit.
2 Periit pius de terra,
et rectus in hominibus non est;
omnes in sanguine insidiantur,
vir fratrem suum rete venatur.
2 The good man is perished out of the earth: and there is none upright among men: they all lie in wait for blood; they hunt every man his brother with a net.
3 Ad malum manus eorum paratae sunt;
princeps postulat,
et iudex est pro mercede,
et magnus manifestat desiderium animae suae;
vae eis, qui pervertunt illud!
3 That they may do evil with both hands earnestly, the prince asketh, and the judge asketh for a reward; and the great man, he uttereth his mischievous desire: so they wrap it up.
4 Qui optimus in eis, est quasi paliurus,
et, qui rectus, quasi spina de saepe; dies speculatorum tuorum, visitatio tuavenit:
nunc erit confusio eorum.
4 The best of them is as a brier: the most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge: the day of thy watchmen and thy visitation cometh; now shall be their perplexity.
5 Nolite credere amico,
nolite confidere in proximo;
ab ea, quae dormit in sinu tuo,
custodi claustra oris tui;
5 Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom.
6 quia filius contumeliam facit patri,
filia consurgit adversus matrem suam,
nurus adversus socrum suam:
inimici hominis domestici eius.
6 For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother in law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house.
7 Ego autem ad Dominum aspiciam,
exspectabo Deum salvatorem meum; audiet me Deus meus.
7 Therefore I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.
8 Ne laeteris, inimica mea, super me
quia cecidi: consurgam;
cum sedeo in tenebris,
Dominus lux mea est.
8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me.
9 Iram Domini porto,
quoniam peccavi ei,
donec iudicet causam meam
et faciat iudicium meum;
educet me in lucem,
videbo iustitiam eius.
9 I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness.
10 Et aspiciet inimica mea
et operietur confusione,
quae dicit ad me:
“ Ubi est Dominus Deus tuus? ”.
Oculi mei videbunt in eam;
nunc erit in conculcationem
ut lutum platearum.
10 Then she that is mine enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her which said unto me, Where is the LORD thy God? mine eyes shall behold her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
11 Dies veniet ut aedificentur maceriae tuae;
in die illa dilatabuntur fines tui.
11 In the day that thy walls are to be built, in that day shall the decree be far removed.
12 In die illa usque ad te venient
habitantes ab Assyria usque ad Aegyptum
et ab Aegypto usque ad flumen
et a mari usque ad mare
et a monte usque ad montem.
12 In that day also he shall come even to thee from Assyria, and from the fortified cities, and from the fortress even to the river, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
13 Terra autem erit in desolationem
propter habitatores suos
et propter fructum operum eorum.
13 Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate because of them that dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.
14 Pasce populum tuum in virga tua,
gregem hereditatis tuae,
habitantes solos in saltu,
in medio hortorum;
pascantur Basan et Galaad
iuxta dies antiquos.
14 Feed thy people with thy rod, the flock of thine heritage, which dwell solitarily in the wood, in the midst of Carmel: let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
15 Secundum dies egressionis tuae de terra Aegypti
ostende nobis mirabilia.
15 According to the days of thy coming out of the land of Egypt will I shew unto him marvellous things.
16 Videbunt gentes et confundentur
super omni fortitudine sua,
ponent manum super os,
aures eorum surdae erunt;
16 The nations shall see and be confounded at all their might: they shall lay their hand upon their mouth, their ears shall be deaf.
17 lingent pulverem sicut serpens,
velut reptilia terrae.
Trementes exibunt de aedibus suis " ad Dominum Deum nostrum "
formidabunt et timebunt te.
17 They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of the LORD our God, and shall fear because of thee.
18 Quis Deus similis tui,
qui aufers iniquitatem
et transis peccatum
reliquiarum hereditatis tuae?
Non servat in aeternum furorem suum,
quoniam volens misericordiam est.
18 Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.
19 Revertetur et miserebitur nostri,
calcabit iniquitates nostras
et proiciet in profundum maris
omnia peccata nostra.
19 He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
20 Dabis veritatem Iacob,
misericordiam Abraham,
quae iurasti patribus nostris
a diebus antiquis.
20 Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob, and the mercy to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.
