Clementine Vulgate, 1598
Berean Standard Bible
1[Audite verbum Domini, filii Israël, quia judicium Domino cum habitatoribus terræ: non est enim veritas, et non est misericordia, et non est scientia Dei in terra.
1Hear the word of the LORD, O children of Israel, for the LORD has a case against the people of the land: “There is no truth, no loving devotion, and no knowledge of God in the land!
2Maledictum, et mendacium, et homicidium, et furtum, et adulterium inundaverunt, et sanguis sanguinem tetigit.
2Cursing and lying, murder and stealing, and adultery are rampant; one act of bloodshed follows another.
3Propter hoc lugebit terra, et infirmabitur omnis qui habitat in ea, in bestia agri, et in volucre cæli; sed et pisces maris congregabuntur.
3Therefore the land mourns, and all who dwell in it will waste away with the beasts of the field and the birds of the air; even the fish of the sea disappear.
4Verumtamen unusquisque non judicet, et non arguatur vir: populus enim tuus sicut hi qui contradicunt sacerdoti.
4But let no man contend; let no man offer reproof; for your people are like those who contend with a priest.
5Et corrues hodie, et corruet etiam propheta tecum. Nocte tacere feci matrem tuam.
5You will stumble by day, and the prophet will stumble with you by night; so I will destroy your mother—
6Conticuit populus meus, eo quod non habuerit scientiam: quia tu scientiam repulisti, repellam te, ne sacerdotio fungaris mihi; et oblita es legis Dei tui, obliviscar filiorum tuorum et ego.
6My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you as My priests. Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children.
7Secundum multitudinem eorum sic peccaverunt mihi: gloriam eorum in ignominiam commutabo.
7The more they multiplied, the more they sinned against Me; they exchanged their Glory for a thing of disgrace.
8Peccata populi mei comedent, et ad iniquitatem eorum sublevabunt animas eorum.
8They feed on the sins of My people and set their hearts on iniquity.
9Et erit sicut populus, sic sacerdos; et visitabo super eum vias ejus, et cogitationes ejus reddam ei.
9And it shall be like people, like priest. I will punish both of them for their ways and repay them for their deeds.
10Et comedent, et non saturabuntur; fornicati sunt, et non cessaverunt: quoniam Dominum dereliquerunt in non custodiendo.
10They will eat but not be satisfied; they will be promiscuous but not multiply. For they have stopped obeying the LORD.
11Fornicatio, et vinum, et ebrietas auferunt cor.
11Promiscuity, wine, and new wine take away understanding.
12Populus meus in ligno suo interrogavit, et baculus ejus annuntiavit ei; spiritus enim fornicationum decepit eos, et fornicati sunt a Deo suo.
12My people consult their wooden idols, and their divining rods inform them. For a spirit of prostitution leads them astray and they have played the harlot against their God.
13Super capita montium sacrificabant, et super colles ascendebant thymiama; subtus quercum, et populum, et terebinthum, quia bona erat umbra ejus; ideo fornicabuntur filiæ vestræ, et sponsæ vestræ adulteræ erunt.
13They sacrifice on the mountaintops and burn offerings on the hills, under oak, poplar, and terebinth, because their shade is pleasant. And so your daughters turn to prostitution and your daughters-in-law to adultery.
14Non visitabo super filias vestras cum fuerint fornicatæ, et super sponsas vestras cum adulteraverint, quoniam ipsi cum meretricibus conversabantur, et cum effeminatis sacrificabant; et populus non intelligens vapulabit.
14I will not punish your daughters when they prostitute themselves, nor your daughters-in-law when they commit adultery. For the men themselves go off with prostitutes and offer sacrifices with shrine prostitutes. So a people without understanding will come to ruin.
15Si fornicaris tu, Israël, non delinquat saltem Juda; et nolite ingredi in Galgala, et ne ascenderitis in Bethaven, neque juraveritis: Vivit Dominus !
15Though you prostitute yourself, O Israel, may Judah avoid such guilt! Do not journey to Gilgal, do not go up to Beth-aven, and do not swear on oath, ‘As surely as the LORD lives!’
16Quoniam sicut vacca lasciviens declinavit Israël; nunc pascet eos Dominus, quasi agnum in latitudine.
16For Israel is as obstinate as a stubborn heifer. Can the LORD now shepherd them like lambs in an open meadow?
17Particeps idolorum Ephraim: dimitte eum.
17Ephraim is joined to idols; leave him alone!
18Separatum est convivium eorum; fornicatione fornicati sunt: dilexerunt afferre ignominiam protectores ejus.
18When their liquor is gone, they turn to prostitution; their rulers dearly love disgrace.
19Ligavit eum spiritus in alis suis, et confundentur a sacrificiis suis.]
19The whirlwind has wrapped them in its wings, and their sacrifices will bring them shame.
