NOVA VULGATAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 Ecce super montes pedes evan gelizantis
et annuntiantis pacem.
Celebra, Iuda, festivitates tuas
et redde vota tua,
quia non adiciet ultra ut pertranseat in te Belial:
totus interiit.
1 He that dasheth in pieces is come up before thy face: keep the munition, watch the way, make thy loins strong, fortify thy power mightily.
2 Ascendit, qui dispergat, contra te.
“ Custodi munitionem,
contemplare viam, conforta lumbos, robora virtutem valde ”.
2 For the LORD hath turned away the excellency of Jacob, as the excellency of Israel: for the emptiers have emptied them out, and marred their vine branches.
3 Quia restituet Dominus magnificentiam Iacob
sicut magnificentiam Israel,
quia praedones praedati sunt eos
et propagines eorum corruperunt.
3 The shield of his mighty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet: the chariots shall be with flaming torches in the day of his preparation, and the fir trees shall be terribly shaken.
4 Clipeus fortium eius ruber,
viri exercitus in coccineis;
ignitae laminae ferreae curruum,
quando praeparat bellum,
et equites agitantur.
4 The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.
5 In viis furibundae currunt quadrigae,
invicem colliduntur in plateis;
aspectus eorum quasi lampades,
quasi fulgura discurrentia.
5 He shall recount his worthies: they shall stumble in their walk; they shall make hast to the wall thereof, and the defence shall be prepared.
6 Recordatur fortium suorum,
ruunt in itineribus suis;
currunt ad murum,
et praeparatur umbraculum.
6 The gates of the rivers shall be opened, and the palace shall be dissolved.
7 Portae fluviorum apertae sunt,
palatium tremit.
7 And Huzzab shall be led away captive, she shall be brought up, and her maids shall lead her as with the voice of doves, tabering upon their breasts.
8 Et speciosa denudatur, tollitur,
et ancillae eius gemunt ut columbae et percutiunt corda sua.
8 But Nineveh is of old like a pool of water: yet they shall flee away. Stand, stand, shall they cry; but none shall look back.
9 Et Nineve quasi piscina aquarum,
cuius aquae fugiunt.
“ State, state! ”;
sed non est qui revertatur.
9 Take ye the spoil of silver, take the spoil of gold: for there is none end of the store and glory out of all the pleasant furniture.
10 “ Diripite argentum, diripite aurum! ”.
Et non est finis divitiarum;
thesaurus ex omnibus vasis desiderabilibus.
10 She is empty, and void, and waste: and the heart melteth, and the knees smite together, and much pain is in all loins, and the faces of them all gather blackness.
11 Dissipata et vastata et dilacerata,
et cor tabescens,
et dissolutio geniculorum;
et tremor in cunctis renibus,
et facies omnium eorum candentes.
11 Where is the dwelling of the lions, and the feedingplace of the young lions, where the lion, even the old lion, walked, and the lion's whelp, and none made them afraid?
12 Ubi est habitaculum leonum,
et spelunca catulorum leonum,
ad quam ivit leo, ut duceret illuc catulum leonis,
et non erat qui exterreret?
12 The lion did tear in pieces enough for his whelps, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his holes with prey, and his dens with ravin.
13 Leo cepit sufficienter catulis suis
et necavit leaenis suis;
et implevit praeda speluncas suas
et cubile suum rapina.
13 Behold, I am against thee, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will burn her chariots in the smoke, and the sword shall devour thy young lions: and I will cut off thy prey from the earth, and the voice of thy messengers shall no more be heard.
14 “ Ecce ego ad te,
dicit Dominus exercituum,
et succendam usque ad fumum quadrigas tuas;
et leunculos tuos comedet gladius,
et exterminabo de terra praedam tuam,
et non audietur ultra vox nuntiorum tuorum ”.
