Tobiæ 13
Clementine Vulgate, 1598Translation
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Aperiens autem Tobias senior os suum, benedixit Dominum, et dixit: [Magnus es, Domine, in æternum, et in omnia sæcula regnum tuum:
1Then Tobit wrote a prayer of rejoicing, and said, Blessed be God that liveth for ever, and blessed be his kingdom.
2quoniam tu flagellas, et salvas; deducis ad inferos, et reducis: et non est qui effugiat manum tuam.
2For he doth scourge, and hath mercy: he leadeth down to hell, and bringeth up again: neither is there any that can avoid his hand.
3Confitemini Domino, filii Israël, et in conspectu gentium laudate eum:
3Confess him before the Gentiles, ye children of Israel: for he hath scattered us among them.
4quoniam ideo dispersit vos inter gentes quæ ignorant eum, ut vos enarretis mirabilia ejus, et faciatis scire eos quia non est alius deus omnipotens præter eum.
4There declare his greatness, and extol him before all the living: for he is our Lord, and he is the God our Father for ever.
5Ipse castigavit nos propter iniquitates nostras, et ipse salvabit nos propter misericordiam suam.
5And he will scourge us for our iniquities, and will have mercy again, and will gather us out of all nations, among whom he hath scattered us.
6Aspicite ergo quæ fecit nobiscum, et cum timore et tremore confitemini illi: regemque sæculorum exaltate in operibus vestris.
6If ye turn to him with your whole heart, and with your whole mind, and deal uprightly before him, then will he turn unto you, and will not hide his face from you. Therefore see what he will do with you, and confess him with your whole mouth, and praise the Lord of might, and extol the everlasting King. In the land of my captivity do I praise him, and declare his might and majesty to a sinful nation. O ye sinners, turn and do justice before him: who can tell if he will accept you, and have mercy on you?
7Ego autem in terra captivitatis meæ confitebor illi: quoniam ostendit majestatem suam in gentem peccatricem.
7I will extol my God, and my soul shall praise the King of heaven, and shall rejoice in his greatness.
8Convertimini itaque peccatores, et facite justitiam coram Deo, credentes quod faciat vobiscum misericordiam suam.
8Let all men speak, and let all praise him for his righteousness.
9Ego autem et anima mea in eo lætabimur.
9O Jerusalem, the holy city, he will scourge thee for thy children’s works, and will have mercy again on the sons of the righteous.
10Benedicite Dominum omnes electi ejus: agite dies lætitiæ, et confitemini illi.
10Give praise to the Lord, for he is good: and praise the everlasting King, that his tabernacle may be builded in thee again with joy, and let him make joyful there in thee those that are captives, and love in thee for ever those that are miserable.
11Jerusalem civitas Dei, castigavit te Dominus in operibus manuum tuarum.
11Many nations shall come from far to the name of the Lord God with gifts in their hands, even gifts to the King of heaven; all generations shall praise thee with great joy.
12Confitere Domino in bonis tuis, et benedic Deum sæculorum: ut reædificet in te tabernaculum suum, et revocet ad te omnes captivos, et gaudeas in omnia sæcula sæculorum.
12Cursed are all they which hate thee, and blessed shall all be which love thee for ever.
13Luce splendida fulgebis, et omnes fines terræ adorabunt te.
13Rejoice and be glad for the children of the just: for they shall be gathered together, and shall bless the Lord of the just.
14Nationes ex longinquo ad te venient, et munera deferentes adorabunt in te Dominum, et terram tuam in sanctificationem habebunt:
14O blessed are they which love thee, for they shall rejoice in thy peace: blessed are they which have been sorrowful for all thy scourges; for they shall rejoice for thee, when they have seen all thy glory, and shall be glad for ever.
15nomen enim magnum invocabunt in te.
15Let my soul bless God the great King.
16Maledicti erunt qui contempserint te, et condemnati erunt omnes qui blasphemaverint te: benedictique erunt qui ædificaverint te.
16For Jerusalem shall be built up with sapphires and emeralds, and precious stone: thy walls and towers and battlements with pure gold.
17Tu autem lætaberis in filiis tuis, quoniam omnes benedicentur, et congregabuntur ad Dominum.
17And the streets of Jerusalem shall be paved with beryl and carbuncle and stones of Ophir.
18Beati omnes qui diligunt te, et qui gaudent super pace tua.
18And all her streets shall say, Alleluia; and they shall praise him, saying, Blessed be God, which hath extolled it for ever.
19Anima mea, benedic Dominum, quoniam liberavit Jerusalem civitatem suam a cunctis tribulationibus ejus Dominus Deus noster.
