Jeremiah 23

vae pastoribus qui disperdunt et dilacerant gregem pascuae meae dicit Dominus
Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD.
ideo haec dicit Dominus Deus Israhel ad pastores qui pascunt populum meum vos dispersistis gregem meum eiecistis eos et non visitastis eos ecce ego visitabo super vos malitiam studiorum vestrorum ait Dominus
Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the LORD.
et ego congregabo reliquias gregis mei de omnibus terris ad quas eiecero eos illuc et convertam eos ad rura sua et crescent et multiplicabuntur
And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all countries whither I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and increase.
et suscitabo super eos pastores et pascent eos non formidabunt ultra et non pavebunt et nullus quaeretur ex numero dicit Dominus
And I will set up shepherds over them which shall feed them: and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall they be lacking, saith the LORD.
ecce dies veniunt ait Dominus et suscitabo David germen iustum et regnabit rex et sapiens erit et faciet iudicium et iustitiam in terra
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.
in diebus illius salvabitur Iuda et Israhel habitabit confidenter et hoc est nomen quod vocabunt eum Dominus iustus noster
In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.
propter hoc ecce dies veniunt dicit Dominus et non dicent ultra vivit Dominus qui eduxit filios Israhel de terra Aegypti
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say, The LORD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
sed vivit Dominus qui eduxit et adduxit semen domus Israhel de terra aquilonis et de cunctis terris ad quas eieceram eos illuc et habitabunt in terra sua
But, The LORD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.
ad prophetas contritum est cor meum in medio mei contremuerunt omnia ossa mea factus sum quasi vir ebrius et quasi homo madidus a vino a facie Domini et a facie verborum sanctorum eius
Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets; all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome, because of the LORD, and because of the words of his holiness.
quia adulteris repleta est terra quia a facie maledictionis luxit terra arefacta sunt arva deserti factus est cursus eorum malus et fortitudo eorum dissimilis
For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course is evil, and their force is not right.
propheta namque et sacerdos polluti sunt et in domo mea inveni malum eorum ait Dominus
For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith the LORD.
idcirco via eorum erit quasi lubricum in tenebris inpellentur enim et corruent in ea adferam enim super eos mala annum visitationis eorum ait Dominus
Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery ways in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall therein: for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.
et in prophetis Samariae vidi fatuitatem prophetabant in Baal et decipiebant populum meum Israhel
And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied in Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.
et in prophetis Hierusalem vidi similitudinem adulterium et iter mendacii et confortaverunt manus pessimorum ut non converteretur unusquisque a malitia sua facti sunt mihi omnes Sodoma et habitatores eius quasi Gomorra
I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
propterea haec dicit Dominus exercituum ad prophetas ecce ego cibabo eos absinthio et potabo eos felle a prophetis enim Hierusalem est egressa pollutio super omnem terram
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land.
haec dicit Dominus exercituum nolite audire verba prophetarum qui prophetant vobis et decipiunt vos visionem cordis sui loquuntur non de ore Domini
Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.
dicunt his qui blasphemant me locutus est Dominus pax erit vobis et omni qui ambulat in pravitate cordis sui dixerunt non veniet super vos malum
They say still unto them that despise me, The LORD hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you.
quis enim adfuit in consilio Domini et vidit et audivit sermonem eius quis consideravit verbum illius et audivit
For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?
ecce turbo dominicae indignationis egredietur et tempestas erumpens super caput impiorum veniet
Behold, a whirlwind of the LORD is gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked.
non revertetur furor Domini usque dum faciat et usque dum conpleat cogitationem cordis sui in novissimis diebus intellegetis consilium eius
The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly.
non mittebam prophetas et ipsi currebant non loquebar ad eos et ipsi prophetabant
I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.
si stetissent in consilio meo et nota fecissent verba mea populo meo avertissem utique eos a via sua mala et a pessimis cogitationibus suis
But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
putasne Deus e vicino ego sum dicit Dominus et non Deus de longe
Am I a God at hand, saith the LORD, and not a God afar off?
si occultabitur vir in absconditis et ego non videbo eum dicit Dominus numquid non caelum et terram ego impleo ait Dominus
Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the LORD. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith the LORD.
audivi quae dixerunt prophetae prophetantes in nomine meo mendacium atque dicentes somniavi somniavi
I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
usquequo istud in corde est prophetarum vaticinantium mendacium et prophetantium seductiones cordis sui
How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart;
qui volunt facere ut obliviscatur populus meus nominis mei propter somnia eorum quae narrant unusquisque ad proximum suum sicut obliti sunt patres eorum nominis mei propter Baal
Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.
propheta qui habet somnium narret somnium et qui habet sermonem meum loquatur sermonem meum vere quid paleis ad triticum dicit Dominus
The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat? saith the LORD.
numquid non verba mea sunt quasi ignis ait Dominus et quasi malleus conterens petram
Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
propterea ecce ego ad prophetas ait Dominus qui furantur verba mea unusquisque a proximo suo
Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that steal my words every one from his neighbour.
ecce ego ad prophetas ait Dominus qui adsumunt linguas suas et aiunt dicit Dominus
Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that use their tongues, and say, He saith.
ecce ego ad prophetas somniantes mendacium ait Dominus qui narraverunt ea et seduxerunt populum meum in mendacio suo et in miraculis suis cum ego non misissem eos nec mandassem eis qui nihil profuerunt populo huic dicit Dominus
Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD.
si igitur interrogaverit te populus iste vel propheta aut sacerdos dicens quod est onus Domini dices ad eos ut quid vobis onus proiciam quippe vos dicit Dominus
And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask thee, saying, What is the burden of the LORD? thou shalt then say unto them, What burden? I will even forsake you, saith the LORD.
et prophetes et sacerdos et populus qui dicit onus Domini visitabo super virum illum et super domum eius
And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of the LORD, I will even punish that man and his house.
haec dicetis unusquisque ad proximum et ad fratrem suum quid respondit Dominus et quid locutus est Dominus
Thus shall ye say every one to his neighbour, and every one to his brother, What hath the LORD answered? and, What hath the LORD spoken?
et onus Domini ultra non memorabitur quia onus erit unicuique sermo suus et pervertitis verba Dei viventis Domini exercituum Dei nostri
And the burden of the LORD shall ye mention no more: for every man's word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of hosts our God.
haec dices ad prophetam quid respondit tibi Dominus et quid locutus est Dominus
Thus shalt thou say to the prophet, What hath the LORD answered thee? and, What hath the LORD spoken?
si autem onus Domini dixeritis propter hoc haec dicit Dominus quia dixistis sermonem istum onus Domini et misi ad vos dicens nolite dicere onus Domini
But since ye say, The burden of the LORD; therefore thus saith the LORD; Because ye say this word, The burden of the LORD, and I have sent unto you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden of the LORD;
propterea ecce ego tollam vos portans et derelinquam vos et civitatem quam dedi vobis et patribus vestris a facie mea
Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers, and cast you out of my presence:
et dabo vos in obprobrium sempiternum et in ignominiam aeternam quae numquam oblivione delebitur
And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.
