| [1]Væ pastoribus qui disperdunt et dilacerant gregem pascuæ meæ ! dicit Dominus. |
[1]WOE to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! says the LORD. |
| [2]Ideo hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël ad pastores qui pascunt populum meum: Vos dispersistis gregem meum, et ejecistis eos, et non visitastis eos: ecce ego visitabo super vos malitiam studiorum vestrorum, ait Dominus. |
[2]Therefore thus speaks the LORD God of Israel against the shepherds who feed my people: You have scattered my flock, and have caused them to go astray, and have not visited them; behold, I will punish you according to your evil doings, says the LORD. |
| [3]Et ego congregabo reliquias gregis mei de omnibus terris ad quas ejecero eos illuc: et convertam eos ad rura sua, et crescent et multiplicabuntur. |
[3]And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them, and I will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase. |
| [4]Et suscitabo super eos pastores, et pascent eos: non formidabunt ultra, et non pavebunt, et nullus quæretur ex numero, dicit Dominus. |
[4]And I will set shepherds over them who shall feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be scattered nor shall they go astray, says the LORD. |
| [5]Ecce dies veniunt, dicit Dominus, et suscitabo David germen justum: et regnabit rex, et sapiens erit, et faciet judicium et justitiam in terra. |
[5]Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will raise up for David a righteous Heir, and he shall reign over the kingdom with understanding, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. |
| [6]In diebus illis salvabitur Juda, et Israël habitabit confidenter: et hoc est nomen quod vocabunt eum: Dominus justus noster. |
[6]In his days Judah shall be saved and Israel shall dwell securely; and this is the name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. |
| [7]Propter hoc ecce dies veniunt, dicit Dominus, et non dicent ultra: Vivit Domnus, qui eduxit filios Israël de terra Ægypti, |
[7]Therefore, the days are coming, says the LORD, when it shall never be said again, The LORD lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; |
| [8]sed: Vivit Dominus, qui eduxit et adduxit semen domus Israël de terra aquilonis, et de cunctis terris ad quas ejeceram eos illuc, et habitabunt in terra sua. |
[8]But, The LORD lives, who brought up and led the house of Israel out of the north country and from all the countries where they had been scattered; and they shall dwell in their own land |
| [9]Ad prophetas: Contritum est cor meum in medio mei, contremuerunt omnia ossa mea: factus sum quasi vir ebrius, et quasi homo madidus a vino, a facie Domini, et a facie verborum sanctorum ejus. |
[9]My heart is broken within me because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man and like a man who is overcome by wine, because of the presence of the LORD and because of the words of his holiness. |
| [10]Quia adulteris repleta est terra, quia a facie maledictionis luxit terra, arefacta sunt arva deserti: factus est cursus eorum malus: et fortitudo eorum dissimilis. |
[10]For the land is full of adulterers and robbers; because of these men the land mourns and the pastures of the shepherds in the wilderness are dried up, and their yield has been poor, and they did not flourish. |
| [11]Propheta namque et sacerdos polluti sunt, et in domo mea inveni malum eorum, ait Dominus. |
[11]For both prophets and priests have become pagans; yea, even in my house have I found their wickedness, says the LORD. |
| [12]Idcirco via eorum erit quasi lubricum in tenebris: impellentur enim, et corruent in ea: afferam enim super eos mala, annum visitationis eorum, ait Dominus. |
[12]Therefore their ways shall be to them as slippery ways in the darkness; they shall be driven on, and fall in them; for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their punishment, says the LORD. |
| [13]Et in prophetis Samariæ vidi fatuitatem: prophetabunt in Baal, et decipiebant populum meum Israël. |
[13]And I have seen falsehood in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied by Baal and caused my people Israel to err. |
| [14]Et in prophetis Jerusalem vidi similitudinem adulterantium, et iter mendacii: et confortaverunt manus pessimorum, ut non converteretur unusquisque a malitia sua: facti sunt mihi omnes ut Sodoma, et habitatores ejus quasi Gomorrha. |
[14]I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem folly; they commit adultery and walk in lies; they strengthen also the hands of their friends, so that no one turns from his evil way; they are all of them to me like Sodom, and its inhabitants like Gomorrah. |
| [15]Propterea hæc dicit Dominus exercituum ad prophetas: Ecce ego cibabo eos absinthio, et potabo eos felle: a prophetis enim Jerusalem egressa est pollutio super omnem terram. |
[15]Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets: Behold. I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink bitter water; for from the prophets of Jerusalem paganism has gone forth throughout all the land. |
| [16]Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum: Nolite audire verba prophetarum qui prophetant vobis, et decipiunt vos: visionem cordis sui loquuntur, non de ore Domini. |
[16]Thus says the LORD of hosts: Do not hearken to the words of the false prophets who prophesy to you and mislead you; they tell a vision of the imagination of their own hearts, and not from the mouth of the LORD. |
| [17]Dicunt his qui blasphemant me: Locutus est Dominus: Pax erit vobis: et omni qui ambulat in pravitate cordis sui dixerunt: Non veniet super vos malum. |
[17]They say still to those who provoke me, The LORD has said, You shall have peace; and they say to every one who walks after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you. |
| [18]Quis enim affuit in consilio Domini, et vidit, et audivit sermonem ejus? Quis consideravit verbum illius, et audivit? |
[18]For who has stood in the counsel of the LORD and has seen him and heard his word? or who has given ear to his word and heard him? |
| [19]Ecce turbo Dominicæ indignationis egredietur, et tempestas erumpens super caput impiorum veniet. |
[19]Behold, the punishment of the LORD is gone forth in fury, and the punishment will kindle; it shall fall upon the head of the wicked. |
| [20]Non revertetur furor Domini, usque dum faciat et usque dum compleat cogitationem cordis sui: in novissimis diebus intelligetis consilium ejus. |
[20]The wrathful indignation of the LORD shall not turn back until he has executed his devices, and till he has performed the thoughts of his mind; in the latter days you shall discern it perfectly. |
| [21]Non mittebam prophetas, et ipsi currebant: non loquebar ad eos, et ipsi prophetabant. |
[21]I have not sent these prophets, yet they have gone forth; I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. |
| [22]Si stetissent in consilio meo, et nota fecissent verba mea populo meo, avertissem utique eos a via sua mala et a cogitationibus suis pessimis. |
[22]But if they had stood in my counsel and had caused my people to hear my words, then they would have turned them from their evil ways and from the evil of their doings. |
| [23]Putasne Deus e vicino ego sum, dicit Dominus, et non Deus de longe? |
[23]I am the God who is near, says the LORD God, and not a God afar off. |
| [24]Si occultabitur vir in absconditis, et ego non videbo eum? dicit Dominus. Numquid non cælum et terram ego impleo? dicit Dominus. |
[24]If any man should hide himself in secret places, I will see him, says the LORD; behold, heaven and earth are filled with me, says the LORD of hosts. |
| [25]Audivi quæ dixerunt prophetæ prophetantes in nomine meo mendacium, atque dicentes: Somniavi, somniavi. |
[25]I have heard what the prophets have said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed a dream. |
| [26]Usquequo istud est in corde prophetarum vaticinantium mendacium, et prophetantium seductiones cordis sui? |
[26]How long shall there be in the mouth of the false prophets, prophecies of lies? prophecies of the deceit of their own heart? |
| [27]Qui volunt facere ut obliviscatur populus meus nominis mei, propter somnia eorum quæ narrat unusquisque ad proximum suum, sicut obliti sunt patres eorum nominis mei propter Baal? |
[27]Who think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgot my name and served Baal. |
| [28]Propheta qui habet somnium, narret somnium: et qui habet sermonem meum, loquatur sermonem meum vere. Quid paleis ad triticum? dicit Dominus. |
[28]The prophet who sees a dream, let him tell a dream; but he who has my words, let him speak my words faithfully. Why do you mix chaff with the wheat? says the LORD. |
| [29]Numquid non verba mea sunt quasi ignis, dicit Dominus, et quasi malleus conterens petram? |
[29]Behold, my words issue like a fire, says the LORD, and like a hammer which breaks the rock in pieces. |
| [30]Propterea ecce ego ad prophetas, ait Dominus, qui furantur verba mea unusquisque a proximo suo. |
[30]Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD, who steal my words, every one from his neighbor. |
| [31]Ecce ego ad prophetas, ait Dominus, qui assumunt linguas suas, et aiunt: Dicit Dominus. |
[31]Behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD, who pervert their tongues, and say, Thus says the LORD. |
| [32]Ecce ego ad prophetas somniantes mendacium, ait Dominus: qui narraverunt ea, et seduxerunt populum meum in mendacio suo et in miraculis suis, cum ego non misissem eos, nec mandassem eis, qui nihil profuerunt populo huic, dicit Dominus. |
[32]Behold, I am against the prophets who see false dreams, says the LORD, and tell them, and lead my people astray by their lies and their wantonness; yet I did not command them nor send them; so they do not profit this people at all |
| [33]Si igitur interrogaverit te populus iste, vel propheta, aut sacerdos, dicens: Quod est onus Domini? dices ad eos: Vos estis onus: projiciam quippe vos, dicit Dominus. |
[33]land when this people, or a prophet or a priest, shall ask you, and say to you, What is the word of the LORD? you shall say to them, This is the word of the LORD: I will utterly uproot you, says the LORD. |
| [34]Et propheta, et sacerdos, et populus qui dicit: Onus Domini: visitabo super virum illum et super domum ejus. |
[34]And as for the prophet or the priest or the people who shall speak the word of the LORD, I will punish that man and his house. |
| [35]Hæc dicetis unusquisque ad proximum, et ad fratrem suum: Quid respondit Dominus? et quid locutus est Dominus? |
[35]Thus shall you say every one to his neighbor, and every one to his brother: What has the LORD answered? and, What has the LORD spoken? |
| [36]Et onus Domini ultra non memorabitur: quia onus erit unicuique sermo suus, et pervertistis verba Dei viventis, Domini exercituum, Dei nostri. |
[36]And the words of the LORD you shall mention no more; for every man's word shall be to him his prophecy, for you pervert the words of the living God, the LORD of hosts, our God. |
| [37]Hæc dices ad prophetam: Quid respondit tibi Dominus? et quid locutus est Dominus? |
[37]Thus shall you say to that person: What has the LORD answered you? and, What has the LORD spoken? |
| [38]Si autem onus Domini dixeritis, propter hoc hæc dicit Dominus: Quia dixistis sermonem istum: Onus Domini, et misi ad vos dicens: Nolite dicere: Onus Domini: |
[38]But if you speak the word of the LORD, therefore, thus says the LORD: Because you have said this word, The words of the LORD, and I have sent you, saying, You shall not say, The words of the LORD; |
| [39]propterea ecce ego tollam vos portans, et derelinquam vos, et civitatem quam dedi vobis et patribus vestris, a facie mea: |
[39]Therefore, behold, I will surely remove you, and I will cast you away, both you and the city that I gave to you and your fathers; |
| [40]et dabo vos in opprobrium sempiternum, et in ignominiam æternam, quæ numquam oblivione delebitur. |
[40]And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame which shall not be forgotten |
