Berean Standard Bible
1[Hæc dicit Dominus: Super tribus sceleribus Moab, et super quatuor non convertam eum, eo quod incenderit ossa regis Idumææ usque ad cinerem.
1This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Moab, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because he burned to lime the bones of Edom’s king.
2Et mittam ignem in Moab, et devorabit ædes Carioth: et morietur in sonitu Moab, in clangore tubæ.
2So I will send fire against Moab to consume the citadels of Kerioth. Moab will die in tumult, amid war cries and the sound of the ram’s horn.
3Et disperdam judicem de medio ejus, et omnes principes ejus interficiam cum eo, dicit Dominus.]
3I will cut off the ruler of Moab and kill all the officials with him,” says the LORD.
4[Hæc dicit Dominus: Super tribus sceleribus Juda, et super quatuor non convertam eum, eo quod abjecerit legem Domini et mandata ejus non custodierit: deceperant enim eos idola sua, post quæ abierant patres eorum.
4This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Judah, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because they reject the Law of the LORD and fail to keep His statutes; they are led astray by the lies in which their fathers walked.

5So I will send fire upon Judah to consume the citadels of Jerusalem.”
6Hæc dicit Dominus: Super tribus sceleribus Israël, et super quatuor non convertam eum, pro eo quod vendiderit pro argento justum, et pauperem pro calceamentis.
6This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Israel, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because they sell the righteous for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals.
7Qui conterunt super pulverem terræ capita pauperum, et viam humilium declinant: et filius ac pater ejus ierunt ad puellam, ut violarent nomen sanctum meum.
7They trample on the heads of the poor as on the dust of the earth; they push the needy out of their way. A man and his father have relations with the same girl and so profane My holy name.
8Et super vestimentis pignoratis accubuerunt juxta omne altare, et vinum damnatorum bibebant in domo Dei sui.
8They lie down beside every altar on garments taken in pledge. And in the house of their God, they drink wine obtained through fines.
9Ego autem exterminavi Amorrhæum a facie eorum, cujus altitudo, cedrorum altitudo ejus, et fortis ipse quasi quercus; et contrivi fructum ejus desuper, et radices ejus subter.
9Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them, though his height was like that of the cedars, and he was as strong as the oaks. Yet I destroyed his fruit above and his roots below.
10Ego sum qui ascendere vos feci de terra Ægypti, et duxi vos in deserto quadraginta annis, ut possideretis terram Amorrhæi.
10And I brought you up from the land of Egypt and led you forty years in the wilderness, that you might take possession of the land of the Amorite.
11Et suscitavi de filiis vestris in prophetas, et de juvenibus vestris nazaræos. Numquid non ita est, filii Israël? dicit Dominus.
11I raised up prophets from your sons and Nazirites from your young men. Is this not true, O children of Israel?” declares the LORD.
12Et propinabitis nazaræis vinum, et prophetis mandabitis, dicentes: Ne prophetetis.
12“But you made the Nazirites drink wine and commanded the prophets not to prophesy.
13Ecce ego stridebo subter vos, sicut stridet plaustrum onustum fœno.
13Behold, I am about to crush you in your place as with a cart full of grain.
14Et peribit fuga a veloce, et fortis non obtinebit virtutem suam, et robustus non salvabit animam suam:
14Escape will fail the swift, the strong will not prevail by his strength, and the mighty will not save his life.
15et tenens arcum non stabit, et velox pedibus suis non salvabitur, et ascensor equi non salvabit animam suam:
15The archer will not stand his ground, the fleet of foot will not escape, and the horseman will not save his life.
16et robustus corde inter fortes nudus fugiet in illa die, dicit Dominus.]
16Even the bravest of mighty men will flee naked on that day,” declares the LORD.
