VULGATAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens :1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Fili hominis, quid fiet de ligno vitis,
ex omnibus lignis nemorum
quæ sunt inter ligna silvarum ?
2 Son of man, What is the vine tree more than any tree, or than a branch which is among the trees of the forest?
3 numquid tolletur de ea lignum ut fiat opus,
aut fabricabitur de ea paxillus
ut dependeat in eo quodcumque vas ?
3 Shall wood be taken thereof to do any work? or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?
4 Ecce igni datum est in escam :
utramque partem ejus consumpsit ignis,
et medietas ejus redacta est in favillam :
numquid utile erit ad opus ?
4 Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire devoureth both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned. Is it meet for any work?
5 Etiam cum esset integrum,
non erat aptum ad opus :
quanto magis cum illud ignis devoraverit et combusserit,
nihil ex eo fiet operis ?
5 Behold, when it was whole, it was meet for no work: how much less shall it be meet yet for any work, when the fire hath devoured it, and it is burned?
6 Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus :
Quomodo lignum vitis inter ligna silvarum,
quod dedi igni ad devorandum,
sic tradam habitatores Jerusalem.
6 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
7 Et ponam faciem meam in eos :
de igne egredientur,
et ignis consumet eos :
et scietis quia ego Dominus,
cum posuero faciem meam in eos,
7 And I will set my face against them; they shall go out from one fire, and another fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I set my face against them.
8 et dedero terram inviam et desolatam,
eo quod prævaricatores extiterint,
dicit Dominus Deus.
8 And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass, saith the Lord GOD.
