Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1[Peccatum Juda scriptum est stylo ferreo in ungue adamantino, exaratum super latitudinem cordis eorum, et in cornibus ararum eorum.
1The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars;
2Cum recordati fuerint filii eorum ararum suarum, et lucorum suorum, lignorumque frondentium, in montibus excelsis,
2Whilst their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees upon the high hills.
3sacrificantes in agro: fortitudinem tuam, et omnes thesauros tuos in direptionem dabo; excelsa tua propter peccata in universis finibus tuis.
3O my mountain in the field, I will give thy substance and all thy treasures to the spoil, and thy high places for sin, throughout all thy borders.
4Et relinqueris sola ab hæreditate tua, quam dedi tibi, et servire te faciam inimicis tuis in terra quam ignoras: quoniam ignem succendisti in furore meo: usque in æternum ardebit.]
4And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue from thine heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in mine anger, which shall burn for ever.
5[Hæc dicit Dominus: Maledictus homo qui confidit in homine, et ponit carnem brachium suum, et a Domino recedit cor ejus.
5¶ Thus saith the LORD ; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD .
6Erit enim quasi myricæ in deserto, et non videbit cum venerit bonum: sed habitabit in siccitate in deserto, in terra salsuginis et inhabitabili.
6For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
7Benedictus vir qui confidit in Domino, et erit Dominus fiducia ejus.
7Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD , and whose hope the LORD is.
8Et erit quasi lignum quod transplantatur super aquas, quod ad humorem mittit radices suas, et non timebit cum venerit æstus: et erit folium ejus viride, et in tempore siccitatis non erit sollicitum, nec aliquando desinet facere fructum.
8For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
9Pravum est cor omnium, et inscrutabile: quis cognoscet illud?
9¶ The heart is deceitful above all things , and desperately wicked: who can know it?
10Ego Dominus scrutans cor, et probans renes: qui do unicuique juxta viam suam, et juxta fructum adinventionum suarum.
10I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
11Perdix fovit quæ non peperit: fecit divitias, et non in judicio: in dimidio dierum suorum derelinquet eas, et in novissimo suo erit insipiens.
11As the partridge sitteth on eggs , and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
12Solium gloriæ altitudinis a principio, locus sanctificationis nostræ.
12¶ A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.
13Exspectatio Israël, Domine, omnes qui te derelinquunt confundentur: recedentes a te, in terra scribentur, quoniam dereliquerunt venam aquarum viventium Dominum.
13O LORD , the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD , the fountain of living waters.
14Sana me, Domine, et sanabor: salvum me fac, et salvus ero: quoniam laus mea tu es.
14Heal me, O LORD , and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.
15Ecce ipsi dicunt ad me: Ubi est verbum Domini? veniat:
15¶ Behold, they say unto me, Where is the word of the LORD ? let it come now.
16et ego non sum turbatus, te pastorem sequens: et diem hominis non desideravi, tu scis: quod egressum est de labiis meis, rectum in conspectu tuo fuit.
16As for me, I have not hastened from being a pastor to follow thee: neither have I desired the woeful day; thou knowest: that which came out of my lips was right before thee.
17Non sis tu mihi formidini: spes mea tu in die afflictionis.
17Be not a terror unto me: thou art my hope in the day of evil.
18Confundantur qui me persequuntur, et non confundar ego: paveant illi, et non paveam ego: induc super eos diem afflictionis, et duplici contritione contere eos.]
18Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
19Hæc dicit Dominus ad me: Vade, et sta in porta filiorum populi, per quam ingrediuntur reges Juda, et egrediuntur, et in cunctis portis Jerusalem:
19¶ Thus said the LORD unto me; Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, whereby the kings of Judah come in, and by the which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem;
20et dices ad eos: [Audite verbum Domini, reges Juda, et omnis Juda, cunctique habitatores Jerusalem, qui ingredimini per portas istas.
20And say unto them, Hear ye the word of the LORD , ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:
21Hæc dicit Dominus: Custodite animas vestras, et nolite portare pondera in die sabbati, nec inferatis per portas Jerusalem:
21Thus saith the LORD ; Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem;
22et nolite ejicere onera de domibus vestris in die sabbati, et omne opus non facietis: sanctificate diem sabbati, sicut præcepi patribus vestris.
22Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work, but hallow ye the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers.
23Et non audierunt, nec inclinaverunt aurem suam: sed induraverunt cervicem suam, ne audirent me, et ne acciperent disciplinam.
23But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.
24Et erit: si audieritis me, dicit Dominus, ut non inferatis onera per portas civitatis hujus in die sabbati: et si sanctificaveritis diem sabbati, ne faciatis in eo omne opus:
24And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently hearken unto me, saith the LORD , to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but hallow the sabbath day, to do no work therein;
25ingredientur per portas civitatis hujus reges et principes, sedentes super solium David, et ascendentes in curribus et equis, ipsi et principes eorum, viri Juda, et habitatores Jerusalem: et habitabitur civitas hæc in sempiternum.
25Then shall there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and this city shall remain for ever.
26Et venient de civitatibus Juda, et de circuitu Jerusalem, et de terra Benjamin, et de campestribus, et de montuosis, et ab austro, portantes holocaustum, et victimam, et sacrificium, et thus, et inferent oblationem in domum Domini.
26And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the plain, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of praise, unto the house of the LORD .
27Si autem non audieritis me ut sanctificetis diem sabbati, et ne portetis onus, et ne inferatis per portas Jerusalem in die sabbati, succendam ignem in portis ejus, et devorabit domos Jerusalem, et non extinguetur.]
27But if ye will not hearken unto me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden, even entering in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
