| [1]The Lord seith these thingis, Go thou doun in to the hous of the kyng of Juda, and thou schalt speke there this word, and schalt seie, |
[1]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068; Go downH3381[H8798] to the houseH1004 of the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and speakH1696[H8765] there this wordH1697, |
| [2]Thou kyng of Juda, that sittist on the seete of Dauid, here the word of the Lord, thou, and thi seruauntis, and thi puple, that entren bi these yatis. |
[2]And sayH559[H8804], HearH8085[H8798] the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, O kingH4428 of JudahH3063, that sittestH3427[H8802] upon the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, thou, and thy servantsH5650, and thy peopleH5971 that enterH935[H8802] in by these gatesH8179: |
| [3]The Lord seith these thingis, Do ye doom, and riytfulnesse, and delyuere ye hym that is oppressid bi violence fro the hond of the fals chalenger; and nyle ye make sori, nether oppresse ye wickidli a comelyng, and a fadirles child, and a widewe, and schede ye not out innocent blood in this place. |
[3]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068; ExecuteH6213[H8798] ye judgmentH4941 and righteousnessH6666, and deliverH5337[H8685] the spoiledH1497[H8803] out of the handH3027 of the oppressorH6216: and do no wrongH3238[H8686], do no violenceH2554[H8799] to the strangerH1616, the fatherlessH3490, nor the widowH490, neither shedH8210[H8799] innocentH5355 bloodH1818 in this placeH4725. |
| [4]For if ye doynge don this word, kyngis of the kyn of Dauid sittynge on his trone schulen entre bi the yatis of this hous, and schulen stie on charis and horsis, thei, and the seruauntis, and the puple of hem. |
[4]For if ye doH6213[H8799] this thingH1697 indeedH6213[H8800], then shall there enter inH935[H8804] by the gatesH8179 of this houseH1004 kingsH4428 sittingH3427[H8802] upon the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, ridingH7392[H8802] in chariotsH7393 and on horsesH5483, he, and his servantsH5650, and his peopleH5971. |
| [5]That if ye heren not these wordis, Y swoore in my silf, seith the Lord, that this hous schal be in to wildirnesse. |
[5]But if ye will not hearH8085[H8799] these wordsH1697, I swearH7650[H8738] by myself, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068, that this houseH1004 shall become a desolationH2723. |
| [6]For the Lord seith these thingis on the hous of the kyng of Juda, Galaad, thou art to me the heed of the Liban; credence be not youun to me, if Y sette not thee a wildirnesse, citees vnhabitable. |
[6]For thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 unto the king'sH4428 houseH1004 of JudahH3063; Thou art GileadH1568 unto me, and the headH7218 of LebanonH3844: yet surely I will makeH7896[H8799] thee a wildernessH4057, and citiesH5892 which are not inhabitedH3427[H8738][H8675][H3427].[H8737] |
| [7]And Y schal halewe on thee a man sleynge, and hise armuris; and thei schulen kitte doun thi chosun cedris, and schulen caste doun in to fier. |
[7]And I will prepareH6942[H8765] destroyersH7843[H8688] against thee, every oneH376 with his weaponsH3627: and they shall cut downH3772[H8804] thy choiceH4005 cedarsH730, and castH5307[H8689] them into the fireH784. |
| [8]And many folkis schulen passe bi this citee, and ech man schal seie to his neiybore, Whi dide the Lord thus to this greet citee? |
[8]And manyH7227 nationsH1471 shall passH5674[H8804] by this cityH5892, and they shall sayH559[H8804] every manH376 to his neighbourH7453, Wherefore hath the LORDH3068 doneH6213[H8804] thus unto this greatH1419 cityH5892? |
| [9]And thei schulen answere, For thei forsoken the couenaunt of her Lord God, and worschipiden alien goddis, and serueden hem. |
[9]Then they shall answerH559[H8804], Because they have forsakenH5800[H8804] the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and worshippedH7812[H8691] otherH312 godsH430, and servedH5647 themH8799. |
| [10]Nyle ye biwepe hym that is deed, nether weile ye on hym bi wepyng; biweile ye hym that goith out, for he schal no more turne ayen, nether he schal se the lond of his birthe. |
[10]WeepH1058[H8799] ye not for the deadH4191[H8801], neither bemoanH5110[H8799] him: but weepH1058[H8798] soreH1058[H8800] for him that goeth awayH1980[H8802]: for he shall returnH7725[H8799] no more, nor seeH7200[H8804] his nativeH4138 countryH776. |
| [11]For the Lord seith these thingis to Sellum, the sone of Josie, the kyng of Juda, that regnede for Josye, his fadir, He that yede out of this place, schal no more turne ayen hidur; |
[11]For thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 touchingH413 ShallumH7967 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, which reignedH4427[H8802] instead of JosiahH2977 his fatherH1, which went forthH3318[H8804] out of this placeH4725; He shall not returnH7725 thither any moreH8799: |
| [12]but in the place to which Y translatide him, there he schal die, and he schal no more se this lond. |
[12]But he shall dieH4191[H8799] in the placeH4725 whither they have led him captiveH1540[H8689], and shall seeH7200[H8799] this land no moreH776. |
| [13]Wo to him that bildith his hous in vnriytfulnesse, and his soleris not in doom; he schal oppresse his freend in veyn, and he schal not yelde his hire to hym. |
[13]WoeH1945 unto him that buildethH1129[H8802] his houseH1004 byH3808 unrighteousnessH6664, and his chambersH5944 by wrongH4941; that useth his neighbour'sH7453 serviceH5647[H8799] without wagesH2600, and givethH5414[H8799] him not for his workH6467; |
| [14]Which seith, Y schal bilde to me a large hous, and wide soleris; which openeth wyndows to hym silf, and makith couplis of cedre, and peyntith with reed colour. |
[14]That saithH559[H8802], I will buildH1129[H8799] me a wideH4060 houseH1004 and largeH7304[H8794] chambersH5944, and cutteth him outH7167[H8804] windowsH2474; and it is cieledH5603[H8803] with cedarH730, and paintedH4886[H8800] with vermilionH8350. |
| [15]Whether thou schalt regne, for thou comparisonest thee to a cedre? whether thi fadir eet not, and drank, and dide doom and riytfulnesse thanne, whanne it was wel to hym? |
[15]Shalt thou reignH4427[H8799], because thou closestH8474[H8808] thyself in cedarH730? did not thy fatherH1 eatH398[H8804] and drinkH8354[H8804], and doH6213[H8804] judgmentH4941 and justiceH6666, and then it was well with himH2896? |
| [16]He demyde the cause of a pore man, and nedi, in to his good; whether not therfor for he knew me? seith the Lord. |
[16]He judgedH1777[H8804] the causeH1779 of the poorH6041 and needyH34; then it was wellH2896 with him: was not this to knowH1847 me? saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068. |
| [17]Forsothe thin iyen and herte ben to aueryce, and to schede innocent blood, and to fals caleng, and to the perfourmyng of yuel werk. |
[17]But thine eyesH5869 and thine heartH3820 are not but for thy covetousnessH1215, and for to shedH8210[H8800] innocentH5355 bloodH1818, and for oppressionH6233, and for violenceH4835, to doH6213 itH8800. |
| [18]Therfor the Lord seith these thingis to Joachym, the sone of Josie, the kyng of Juda, Thei schulen not biweile hym, Wo brother! and wo sistir! thei schulen not sowne togidere to hym, Wo lord! and wo noble man! |
[18]Therefore thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 concerning JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063; They shall not lamentH5594[H8799] for him, saying, AhH1945 my brotherH251! or, AhH1945 sisterH269! they shall not lamentH5594[H8799] for him, saying, AhH1945 lordH113! or, AhH1945 his gloryH1935! |
| [19]He schal be biried with the biriyng of an asse, he schal be rotun, and cast forth without the yatis of Jerusalem. |
[19]He shall be buriedH6912[H8735] with the burialH6900 of an assH2543, drawnH5498[H8800] and cast forthH7993[H8687] beyondH1973 the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389. |
| [20]Stie thou on the Liban, and cry thou, and yyue thi vois in Basan, and cry to hem that passen forth, for alle thi louyeris ben al to-brokun. |
[20]Go upH5927[H8798] to LebanonH3844, and cryH6817[H8798]; and lift upH5414[H8798] thy voiceH6963 in BashanH1316, and cryH6817[H8798] from the passagesH5676: for all thy loversH157[H8764] are destroyedH7665.[H8738] |
| [21]Y spak to thee in thi plentee, and thou seidist, Y schal not here; this is thi weie fro thi yongthe, for thou herdist not my vois. |
[21]I spakeH1696[H8765] unto thee in thy prosperityH7962; but thou saidstH559[H8804], I will not hearH8085[H8799]. This hath been thy mannerH1870 from thy youthH5271, that thou obeyedstH8085[H8804] not my voiceH6963. |
| [22]Wynd schal feede alle thi scheepherdis, and thi louyeris schulen go in to caitifte; |
[22]The windH7307 shall eat upH7462[H8799] all thy pastorsH7462[H8802], and thy loversH157[H8764] shall goH3212[H8799] into captivityH7628: surely then shalt thou be ashamedH954[H8799] and confoundedH3637[H8738] for all thy wickednessH7451. |
| [23]and thanne thou that sittist in the Liban, and makist nest in cedris, schalt be schent, and be aschamed of al thi malice. Hou weilidist thou, whanne sorewis weren comun to thee, as the sorew of a womman trauelynge of child? |
[23]O inhabitantH3427[H8802] of LebanonH3844, that makest thy nestH7077[H8794] in the cedarsH730, how graciousH2603[H8738] shalt thou be when pangsH2256 comeH935[H8800] upon thee, the painH2427 H3205as of a woman in travailH8802 |
| [24]I lyue, seith the Lord, for thouy Jeconye, the sone of Joachym, kyng of Juda, were a ring in my riyt hond, fro thennus Y schal drawe awei hym. |
[24]As I liveH2416, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068, though ConiahH3659 the sonH1121 of JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 were the signetH2368 upon my rightH3225 handH3027, yet would I pluckH5423 thee thenceH8799; |
| [25]And Y schal yyue thee in the hond of hem that seken thi lijf, and in the hond of hem whos face thou dredist, and in the hond of Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, and in the hond of Caldeis. |
[25]And I will giveH5414[H8804] thee into the handH3027 of them that seekH1245[H8764] thy lifeH5315, and into the handH3027 of them whose faceH6440 thou fearestH3016[H8801], even into the handH3027 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778. |
| [26]And Y schal sende thee, and thi moder that gendride thee, in to an alien lond, in which ye weren not borun, and there ye schulen die; |
[26]And I will cast thee outH2904[H8689], and thy motherH517 that bareH3205[H8804] thee, into anotherH312 countryH776, where ye were not bornH3205[H8795]; and there shall ye dieH4191.[H8799] |
| [27]and thei schulen not turne ayen in to the lond, to which thei reisen her soule, that thei turne ayen thidur. |
[27]But to the landH776 whereunto they desireH5375[H8764][H8676][H5315] to returnH7725[H8800], thither shall they not returnH7725.[H8799] |
| [28]Whether this man Jeconye is an erthene vessel, and al to-brokun? whether a vessel withouten al likyng? Whi ben he and his seed cast awei, and cast forth in to a lond which thei knewen not? |
[28]Is this manH376 ConiahH3659 a despisedH959[H8737] brokenH5310[H8803] idolH6089? is he a vesselH3627 wherein is no pleasureH2656? wherefore are they cast outH7993[H8717], he and his seedH2233, and are castH2904[H8717] into a landH776 which they knowH3045 notH8804? |
| [29]Erthe, erthe, erthe, here thou the word of the Lord. |
[29]O earthH776, earthH776, earthH776, hearH8085[H8798] the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068. |
| [30]The Lord seith these thingis, Write thou this man bareyn, a man that schal not haue prosperite in hise daies; for of his seed schal be no man, that schal sitte on the seete of Dauid, and haue powere ferthere in Juda. |
[30]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068, WriteH3789[H8798] ye this manH376 childlessH6185, a manH1397 that shall not prosperH6743[H8799] in his daysH3117: for no manH376 of his seedH2233 shall prosperH6743[H8799], sittingH3427[H8802] upon the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, and rulingH4910[H8802] any more in JudahH3063. |
