Jeremiah 8

New International Reader's Version NIRV

1 "At that time the tombs will be opened," announces the Lord. "The bones of the kings and officials of Judah will be brought out. The bones of the priests and prophets will be removed. So will the bones of the people of Jerusalem.

2 They will lie outside under the sun, moon and all of the stars. "All of those people had loved and served those things. They had followed them and worshiped them. They had asked them for advice. So the bones of those people will not be gathered up or buried again. Instead, they will be like trash lying there on the ground.

3 "Everyone who is left alive in this evil nation will want to die rather than live. That is what they will long for in the lands where I force them to go," announces the LORD who rules over all.

4 "Jeremiah, tell them, 'The LORD says, " ' "When people fall down, don't they get up again? When someone turns away, doesn't he come back?

5 Then why have the people of Jerusalem turned away from me? Why do they always turn away? They keep on telling lies. They refuse to come back to me.

6 I have listened carefully. But they do not say what is right. They refuse to turn away from their sins. No one says, 'What have I done?' All of them go their own way. They are like horses charging into battle.

7 Storks know when to fly south. So do doves, swifts and thrushes. But my people do not know what I require them to do.

8 " ' "How can you people say, 'We are wise. We have the law of the Lord'? Actually, the teachers of the law have told lies about it. Their pens have not written what is true.

9 Those who think they are wise will be put to shame. They will become terrified. They will be trapped. They have not accepted my message. So what kind of wisdom do they have?

10 I will give their wives to other men. I will give their fields to new owners. Everyone wants to get richer and richer, from the least important of them to the most important. Prophets and priests alike try to fool everyone they can.

11 They bandage the wounds of my people as if they were not very deep. 'Peace, peace,' they say. But there isn't any peace.

12 Are they ashamed of their hateful actions? No. They do not feel any shame at all. They do not even know how to blush. So they will fall like others who have already fallen. They will be brought down when I punish them," says the Lord.

13 " ' "I will take away their harvest," announces the Lord. "There will not be any grapes on the vines. The trees will not bear any figs. The leaves on the trees will dry up. What I have given them will be taken away from them." ' "

14 Why are we sitting here? Let's gather together! Let's run to the cities that have high walls around them! Let's die there! The LORD our God has sentenced us to death. He has given us poisoned water to drink. That's because we've sinned against him.

15 We hoped peace would come. But nothing good has happened to us. We hoped we would finally be healed. But all we got was terror.

16 When our enemy's horses snort, the noise is heard all the way from Dan. When their stallions neigh, the whole land trembles with fear. They have come to destroy the land and everything in it. The city and everyone who lives there will be destroyed.

17 "People of Judah, I will send poisonous snakes among you. No one will be able to charm them. And they will bite you," announces the Lord.

18 Lord, my heart is weak inside me. You comfort me when I'm sad.

19 Listen to the cries of my people from a land far away. They cry out, "Isn't the LORD in Zion? Isn't its King there anymore?" The LORD says, "Why have they made me so angry by worshiping their wooden gods? Why have they made me angry with their worthless statues of gods from other lands?"

20 The people say, "The harvest is over. The summer has ended. And we still haven't been saved."

21 My people are crushed, so I am crushed. I sob, and I am filled with horror.

22 Isn't there any healing lotion in Gilead? Isn't there a doctor there? Then why doesn't someone heal the wounds of my people?

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 in tempore illo ait Dominus eicient ossa regis Iuda et ossa principum eius et ossa sacerdotum et ossa prophetarum et ossa eorum qui habitaverunt Hierusalem de sepulchris suis

2 et pandent ea ad solem et lunam et omnem militiam caeli quae dilexerunt et quibus servierunt et post quae ambulaverunt et quae quaesierunt et adoraverunt non colligentur et non sepelientur in sterquilinium super faciem terrae erunt

3 et eligent magis mortem quam vitam omnes qui residui fuerint de cognatione hac pessima in universis locis quae derelicta sunt ad quae eieci eos dicit Dominus exercituum

4 et dices ad eos haec dicit Dominus numquid qui cadet non resurget et qui aversus est non revertetur

5 quare ergo aversus est populus iste in Hierusalem aversione contentiosa adprehenderunt mendacium et noluerunt reverti

6 adtendi et auscultavi nemo quod bonum est loquitur nullus est qui agat paenitentiam super peccato suo dicens quid feci omnes conversi sunt ad cursum suum quasi equus impetu vadens in proelio

7 milvus in caelo cognovit tempus suum turtur et hirundo et ciconia custodierunt tempus adventus sui populus autem meus non cognovit iudicium Domini

8 quomodo dicitis sapientes nos sumus et lex Domini nobiscum est vere mendacium operatus est stilus mendax scribarum

9 confusi sunt sapientes perterriti et capti sunt verbum enim Domini proiecerunt et sapientia nulla est in eis

10 propterea dabo mulieres eorum exteris agros eorum heredibus quia a minimo usque ad maximum omnes avaritiam sequuntur a propheta usque ad sacerdotem cuncti faciunt mendacium

11 et sanabant contritionem filiae populi mei ad ignominiam dicentes pax pax cum non esset pax

12 confusi sunt quia abominationem fecerunt quinimmo confusione non sunt confusi et erubescere nescierunt idcirco cadent inter corruentes in tempore visitationis suae corruent dicit Dominus

13 congregans congregabo eos ait Dominus non est uva in vitibus et non sunt ficus in ficulnea folium defluxit et dedi eis quae praetergressa sunt

14 quare sedemus convenite et ingrediamur civitatem munitam et sileamus ibi quia Dominus noster silere nos fecit et potum dedit nobis aquam fellis peccavimus enim Domino

15 expectavimus pacem et non erat bonum tempus medellae et ecce formido

16 a Dan auditus est fremitus equorum eius a voce hinnituum pugnatorum eius commota est omnis terra et venerunt et devoraverunt terram et plenitudinem eius urbem et habitatores eius

17 quia ecce ego mittam vobis serpentes regulos quibus non est incantatio et mordebunt vos ait Dominus

18 dolor meus super dolorem in me cor meum maerens

19 ecce vox clamoris filiae populi mei de terra longinqua numquid Dominus non est in Sion aut rex eius non est in ea quare ergo me ad iracundiam concitaverunt in sculptilibus suis et in vanitatibus alienis

20 transiit messis finita est aestas et nos salvati non sumus

21 super contritionem filiae populi mei contritus sum et contristatus stupor obtinuit me

22 numquid resina non est in Galaad aut medicus non est ibi quare igitur non est obducta cicatrix filiae populi mei
