Bibbia Vulgata Clementina Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
1 Væ qui cogitatis inutile,
et operamini malum in cubilibus vestris !
In luce matutina faciunt illud,
quoniam contra Deum est manus eorum.
1 Woe to those who devise wickedness and work evil upon their beds! When the morning dawns, they perform it, because it is in the power of their hand.
2 Et concupierunt agros, et violenter tulerunt :
et rapuerunt domos,
et calumniabantur virum, et domum ejus :
virum, et hæreditatem ejus.
2 They covet fields, and seize them; and houses, and take them away; they oppress a man and his house, a man and his inheritance.
3 Idcirco hæc dicit Dominus :
Ecce ego cogito super familiam istam malum,
unde non auferetis colla vestra,
et non ambulabitis superbi :
quoniam tempus pessimum est.
3 Therefore thus says the LORD: Behold, against this family I am devising evil, from which you cannot remove your necks; and you shall not walk haughtily, for it will be an evil time.
4 In die illa sumetur super vos parabola,
et cantabitur canticum cum suavitate, dicentium :
Depopulatione vastati sumus ;
pars populi mei commutata est :
quomodo recedet a me, cum revertatur,
qui regiones nostras dividat ?
4 In that day they shall take up a taunt song against you, and wail with bitter lamentation, and say, "We are utterly ruined; he changes the portion of my people; how he removes it from me! Among our captors he divides our fields."
5 Propter hoc non erit tibi mittens funiculum sortis in cœtu Domini.
5 Therefore you will have none to cast the line by lot in the assembly of the LORD.
6 Ne loquamini loquentes ;
non stillabit super istos, non comprehendet confusio.
6 "Do not preach"--thus they preach--"one should not preach of such things; disgrace will not overtake us."
7 Dicit domus Jacob :
Numquid abbreviatus est spiritus Domini,
aut tales sunt cogitationes ejus ?
nonne verba mea bona sunt cum eo qui recte graditur ?
7 Should this be said, O house of Jacob? Is the Spirit of the LORD impatient? Are these his doings? Do not my words do good to him who walks uprightly?
8 et e contrario populus meus in adversarium consurrexit.
Desuper tunica pallium sustulistis :
et eos qui transibant simpliciter convertistis in bellum.
8 But you rise against my people as an enemy; you strip the robe from the peaceful, from those who pass by trustingly with no thought of war.
9 Mulieres populi mei ejecistis de domo deliciarum suarum ;
a parvulis earum tulistis laudem meam in perpetuum.
9 The women of my people you drive out from their pleasant houses; from their young children you take away my glory for ever.
10 Surgite, et ite, quia non habetis hic requiem :
propter immunditiam ejus corrumpetur putredine pessima.
10 Arise and go, for this is no place to rest; because of uncleanness that destroys with a grievous destruction.
11 Utinam non essem vir habens spiritum,
et mendacium potius loquerer !
Stillabo tibi in vinum et in ebrietatem ;
et erit super quem stillatur populus iste.
11 If a man should go about and utter wind and lies, saying, "I will preach to you of wine and strong drink," he would be the preacher for this people!
12 Congregatione congregabo, Jacob, totum te ;
in unum conducam reliquias Israël :
pariter ponam illum quasi gregem in ovili,
quasi pecus in medio caularum :
tumultuabuntur a multitudine hominum.
12 I will surely gather all of you, O Jacob, I will gather the remnant of Israel; I will set them together like sheep in a fold, like a flock in its pasture, a noisy multitude of men.
13 Ascendet enim pandens iter ante eos :
divident, et transibunt portam,
et ingredientur per eam :
et transibit rex eorum coram eis,
et Dominus in capite eorum.		13 He who opens the breach will go up before them; they will break through and pass the gate, going out by it. Their king will pass on before them, the LORD at their head.
