VULGATAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 Et venerunt ad me viri seniorum Israël, et sederunt coram me.1 Then came certain of the elders of Israel unto me, and sat before me.
2 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens :2 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
3 Fili hominis, viri isti posuerunt immunditias suas in cordibus suis, et scandalum iniquitatis suæ statuerunt contra faciem suam : numquid interrogatus respondebo eis ?3 Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face: should I be inquired of at all by them?
4 Propter hoc loquere eis, et dices ad eos : Hæc dicit Dominus Deus : Homo, homo de domo Israël, qui posuerit immunditias suas in corde suo, et scandalum iniquitatis suæ statuerit contra faciem suam, et venerit ad prophetam interrogans per eum me : ego Dominus respondebo ei in multitudine immunditiarum suarum,4 Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I the LORD will answer him that cometh according to the multitude of his idols;
5 ut capiatur domus Israël in corde suo, quo recesserunt a me in cunctis idolis suis.5 That I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they are all estranged from me through their idols.
6 Propterea dic ad domum Israël : Hæc dicit Dominus Deus : Convertimini, et recedite ab idolis vestris, et ab universis contaminationibus vestris avertite facies vestras.6 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Repent, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations.
7 Quia homo, homo de domo Israël, et de proselytis quicumque advena fuerit in Israël, si alienatus fuerit a me, et posuerit idola sua in corde suo, et scandalum iniquitatis suæ statuerit contra faciem suam, et venerit ad prophetam ut interroget per eum me : ego Dominus respondebo ei per me :7 For every one of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel, which separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to a prophet to inquire of him concerning me; I the LORD will answer him by myself:
8 et ponam faciem meam super hominem illum, et faciam eum in exemplum et in proverbium, et disperdam eum de medio populi mei : et scietis quia ego Dominus.8 And I will set my face against that man, and will make him a sign and a proverb, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
9 Et propheta cum erraverit, et locutus fuerit verbum, ego Dominus decepi prophetam illum, et extendam manum meam super illum, et delebo eum de medio populi mei Israël.9 And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, I the LORD have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
10 Et portabunt iniquitatem suam : juxta iniquitatem interrogantis, sic iniquitas prophetæ erit :10 And they shall bear the punishment of their iniquity: the punishment of the prophet shall be even as the punishment of him that seeketh unto him;
11 ut non erret ultra domus Israël a me, neque polluatur in universis prævaricationibus suis : sed sint mihi in populum, et ego sim eis in Deum, ait Dominus exercituum.
11 That the house of Israel may go no more astray from me, neither be polluted any more with all their transgressions; but that they may be my people, and I may be their God, saith the Lord GOD.
12 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens :12 The word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
13 Fili hominis, terra cum peccaverit mihi,
ut prævaricetur prævaricans,
extendam manum meam super eam,
et conteram virgam panis ejus,
et immittam in eam famem,
et interficiam de ea hominem et jumentum.
13 Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will break the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast from it:
14 Et si fuerint tres viri isti in medio ejus,
Noë, Daniel, et Job,
ipsi justitia sua liberabunt animas suas,
ait Dominus exercituum.
14 Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD.
15 Quod si et bestias pessimas induxero super terram
ut vastem eam, et fuerit invia,
eo quod non sit pertransiens propter bestias :
15 If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts:
16 tres viri isti si fuerint in ea,
vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus,
quia nec filios nec filias liberabunt,
sed ipsi soli liberabuntur,
terra autem desolabitur.
16 Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
17 Vel si gladium induxero super terram illam,
et dixero gladio : Transi per terram :
et interfecero de ea hominem et jumentum,
17 Or if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land; so that I cut off man and beast from it:
18 et tres viri isti fuerint in medio ejus :
vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus,
non liberabunt filios neque filias,
sed ipsi soli liberabuntur.
18 Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only shall be delivered themselves.
19 Si autem et pestilentiam immisero super terram illam,
et effudero indignationem meam super eam in sanguine,
ut auferam ex ea hominem et jumentum,
19 Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast:
20 et Noë, et Daniel, et Job fuerint in medio ejus :
vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus,
quia filium et filiam non liberabunt,
sed ipsi justitia sua liberabunt animas suas.
20 Though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall but deliver their own souls by their righteousness.
21 Quoniam hæc dicit Dominus Deus :
Quod etsi quatuor judicia mea pessima,
gladium, et famem, ac bestias malas, et pestilentiam,
immisero in Jerusalem,
ut interficiam de ea hominem et pecus,
21 For thus saith the Lord GOD; How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast?
22 tamen relinquetur in ea salvatio educentium filios et filias :
ecce ipsi ingredientur ad vos,
et videbitis viam eorum et adinventiones eorum,
et consolabimini super malo quod induxi in Jerusalem,
in omnibus quæ importavi super eam.
22 Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be brought forth, both sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see their way and their doings: and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it.
23 Et consolabuntur vos,
cum videritis viam eorum
et adinventiones eorum :
et cognoscetis quod non frustra fecerim omnia quæ feci in ea,
ait Dominus Deus.
23 And they shall comfort you, when ye see their ways and their doings: and ye shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith the Lord GOD.
