New International Version (NIV) |
|
1 verbum quod factum est ad Hieremiam a Domino quando Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis et omnis exercitus eius universaque regna terrae quae erant sub potestate manus eius et omnes populi bellabant contra Hierusalem et contra omnes urbes eius dicens
|
1 While Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army and all the kingdoms and peoples in the empire he ruled were fighting against Jerusalem and all its surrounding towns, this word came to Jeremiah from the LORD:
|
|
2 haec dicit Dominus Deus Israhel vade et loquere ad Sedeciam regem Iuda et dices ad eum haec dicit Dominus ecce ego tradam civitatem hanc in manu regis Babylonis et succendet eam igni
|
2 "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Go to Zedekiah king of Judah and tell him, 'This is what the LORD says: I am about to hand this city over to the king of Babylon, and he will burn it down.
|
|
3 et tu non effugies de manu eius sed conprehensione capieris et in manu eius traderis et oculi tui oculos regis Babylonis videbunt et os eius cum ore tuo loquetur et Babylonem introibis
|
3 You will not escape from his grasp but will surely be captured and handed over to him. You will see the king of Babylon with your own eyes, and he will speak with you face to face. And you will go to Babylon.
|
|
4 attamen audi verbum Domini Sedecia rex Iuda haec dicit Dominus ad te non morieris in gladio
|
4 " 'Yet hear the promise of the LORD, O Zedekiah king of Judah. This is what the LORD says concerning you: You will not die by the sword;
|
|
5 sed in pace morieris et secundum conbustiones patrum tuorum regum priorum qui fuerunt ante te sic conburent te et vae domine plangent te quia verbum ego locutus sum dicit Dominus
|
5 you will die peacefully. As people made a funeral fire in honor of your fathers, the former kings who preceded you, so they will make a fire in your honor and lament, "Alas, O master!" I myself make this promise, declares the LORD.' "
|
|
6 et locutus est Hieremias propheta ad Sedeciam regem Iuda universa verba haec in Hierusalem
|
6 Then Jeremiah the prophet told all this to Zedekiah king of Judah, in Jerusalem,
|
|
7 et exercitus regis Babylonis pugnabat contra Hierusalem et contra omnes civitates Iuda quae reliquae erant contra Lachis et contra Azeca haec enim supererant de civitatibus Iuda urbes munitae
|
7 while the army of the king of Babylon was fighting against Jerusalem and the other cities of Judah that were still holding out--Lachish and Azekah. These were the only fortified cities left in Judah.
|
|
8 verbum quod factum est ad Hieremiam a Domino postquam percussit rex Sedecias foedus cum omni populo in Hierusalem praedicans
|
8 The word came to Jeremiah from the LORD after King Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people in Jerusalem to proclaim freedom for the slaves.
|
|
9 ut dimitteret unusquisque servum suum et unusquisque ancillam suam hebraeum et hebraeam liberos et nequaquam dominarentur eis id est in Iudaeo et fratre suo
|
9 Everyone was to free his Hebrew slaves, both male and female; no one was to hold a fellow Jew in bondage.
|
|
10 audierunt ergo omnes principes et universus populus qui inierant pactum ut dimitteret unusquisque servum suum et unusquisque ancillam suam liberos et ultra non dominarentur in eis audierunt igitur et dimiserunt
|
10 So all the officials and people who entered into this covenant agreed that they would free their male and female slaves and no longer hold them in bondage. They agreed, and set them free.
|
|
11 et conversi sunt deinceps et retraxerunt servos et ancillas suas quos dimiserant liberos et subiugaverunt in famulos et in famulas
|
11 But afterward they changed their minds and took back the slaves they had freed and enslaved them again.
|
|
12 et factum est verbum Domini ad Hieremiam a Domino dicens
|
12 Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
|
|
13 haec dicit Dominus Deus Israhel ego percussi foedus cum patribus vestris in die qua eduxi eos de terra Aegypti de domo servitutis dicens
|
13 "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: I made a covenant with your forefathers when I brought them out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. I said,
|
|
14 cum conpleti fuerint septem anni dimittat unusquisque fratrem suum hebraeum qui venditus est ei et serviet tibi sex annis et dimittes eum a te liberum et non audierunt patres vestri me nec inclinaverunt aurem suam
|
14 'Every seventh year each of you must free any fellow Hebrew who has sold himself to you. After he has served you six years, you must let him go free.' Your fathers, however, did not listen to me or pay attention to me.
|
|
15 et conversi estis vos hodie et fecistis quod rectum est in oculis meis ut praedicaretis libertatem unusquisque ad amicum suum et inistis pactum in conspectu meo in domo in qua invocatum est nomen meum super eam
|
15 Recently you repented and did what is right in my sight: Each of you proclaimed freedom to his countrymen. You even made a covenant before me in the house that bears my Name.
|
|
16 et reversi estis et commaculastis nomen meum et reduxistis unusquisque servum suum et unusquisque ancillam suam quos dimiseratis ut essent liberi et suae potestatis et subiugastis eos ut sint vobis servi et ancillae
|
16 But now you have turned around and profaned my name; each of you has taken back the male and female slaves you had set free to go where they wished. You have forced them to become your slaves again.
|
|
17 propterea haec dicit Dominus vos non audistis me ut praedicaretis libertatem unusquisque fratri suo et unusquisque amico suo ecce ego praedico libertatem ait Dominus ad gladium et pestem et famem et dabo vos in commotionem cunctis regnis terrae
|
17 "Therefore, this is what the LORD says: You have not obeyed me; you have not proclaimed freedom for your fellow countrymen. So I now proclaim 'freedom' for you, declares the LORD--'freedom' to fall by the sword, plague and famine. I will make you abhorrent to all the kingdoms of the earth.
|
|
18 et dabo viros qui praevaricantur foedus meum et non observaverunt verba foederis quibus adsensi sunt in conspectu meo vitulum quem ceciderunt in duas partes et transierunt inter divisiones eius
|
18 The men who have violated my covenant and have not fulfilled the terms of the covenant they made before me, I will treat like the calf they cut in two and then walked between its pieces.
|
|
19 principes Iuda et principes Hierusalem eunuchi et sacerdotes et omnis populus terrae qui transierunt inter divisiones vituli
|
19 The leaders of Judah and Jerusalem, the court officials, the priests and all the people of the land who walked between the pieces of the calf,
|
|
20 et dabo eos in manu inimicorum suorum et in manu quaerentium animam eorum et erit morticinum eorum in escam volucribus caeli et bestiis terrae
|
20 I will hand over to their enemies who seek their lives. Their dead bodies will become food for the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth.
|
|
21 et Sedeciam regem Iuda et principes eius dabo in manu inimicorum suorum et in manu quaerentium animam eorum et in manu exercituum regis Babylonis qui recesserunt a vobis
|
21 "I will hand Zedekiah king of Judah and his officials over to their enemies who seek their lives, to the army of the king of Babylon, which has withdrawn from you.
|
|
22 ecce ego praecipio dicit Dominus et reducam eos in civitatem hanc et proeliabuntur adversum eam et capient eam et incendent igni et civitates Iuda dabo in solitudinem eo quod non sit habitator
|
22 I am going to give the order, declares the LORD, and I will bring them back to this city. They will fight against it, take it and burn it down. And I will lay waste the towns of Judah so no one can live there."
