Jeremiah 48

ad Moab haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel vae super Nabo quoniam vastata est et confusa capta est Cariathaim confusa est fortis et tremuit

Against Moab thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Woe unto Nebo! for it is spoiled: Kiriathaim is confounded and taken: Misgab is confounded and dismayed.

non est ultra exultatio in Moab contra Esebon cogitaverunt malum venite et disperdamus eam de gente ergo silens conticesces sequeturque te gladius

There shall be no more praise of Moab: in Heshbon they have devised evil against it; come, and let us cut it off from being a nation. Also thou shalt be cut down, O Madmen; the sword shall pursue thee.

vox clamoris de Oronaim vastitas et contritio magna

A voice of crying shall be from Horonaim, spoiling and great destruction.

contrita est Moab adnuntiate clamorem parvulis eius

Moab is destroyed; her little ones have caused a cry to be heard.

per ascensum enim Luaith plorans ascendet in fletu quoniam in descensu Oronaim hostes ululatum contritionis audierunt

For in the going up of Luhith continual weeping shall go up; for in the going down of Horonaim the enemies have heard a cry of destruction.

fugite salvate animas vestras et eritis quasi myrice in deserto

Flee, save your lives, and be like the heath in the wilderness.

pro eo enim quod habuisti fiduciam in munitionibus tuis et in thesauris tuis tu quoque capieris et ibit Chamos in transmigrationem sacerdotes eius et principes eius simul

For because thou hast trusted in thy works and in thy treasures, thou shalt also be taken: and Chemosh shall go forth into captivity with his priests and his princes together.

et veniet praedo ad omnem urbem et urbs nulla salvabitur et peribit vallis et dissipabuntur campestria quoniam dixit Dominus

And the spoiler shall come upon every city, and no city shall escape: the valley also shall perish, and the plain shall be destroyed, as the LORD hath spoken.

date florem Moab quia floriens egredietur et civitates eius desertae erunt et inhabitabiles

Give wings unto Moab, that it may flee and get away: for the cities thereof shall be desolate, without any to dwell therein.

maledictus qui facit opus Domini fraudulenter et maledictus qui prohibet gladium suum a sanguine

Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood.

fertilis fuit Moab ab adulescentia sua et requievit in fecibus suis nec transfusus est de vase in vas et in transmigrationem non abiit idcirco permansit gustus eius in eo et odor eius non est inmutatus

Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his lees, and hath not been emptied from vessel to vessel, neither hath he gone into captivity: therefore his taste remained in him, and his scent is not changed.

propterea ecce dies veniunt dicit Dominus et mittam ei ordinatores et stratores laguncularum et sternent eum et vasa eius exhaurient et lagoenas eorum conlident

Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will send unto him wanderers, that shall cause him to wander, and shall empty his vessels, and break their bottles.

et confundetur Moab a Chamos sicut confusa est domus Israhel a Bethel in qua habebat fiduciam

And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, as the house of Israel was ashamed of Beth–el their confidence.

quomodo dicitis fortes sumus et viri robusti ad proeliandum

How say ye, We are mighty and strong men for the war?

vastata est Moab et civitates illius ascenderunt et electi iuvenes eius descenderunt in occisionem ait Rex Dominus exercituum nomen ei

Moab is spoiled, and gone up out of her cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.

prope est interitus Moab ut veniat et malum eius velociter adcurret nimis

The calamity of Moab is near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast.

consolamini eum omnes qui estis in circuitu eius et universi qui scitis nomen eius dicite quomodo confracta est virga fortis baculus gloriosus

All ye that are about him, bemoan him; and all ye that know his name, say, How is the strong staff broken, and the beautiful rod!

descende de gloria et sede in siti habitatio filiae Dibon quoniam vastator Moab ascendet ad te dissipabit munitiones tuas

Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon, come down from thy glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon thee, and he shall destroy thy strong holds.

in via sta et prospice habitatio Aroer interroga fugientem et eum qui evasit dic quid accidit

O inhabitant of Aroer, stand by the way, and espy; ask him that fleeth, and her that escapeth, and say, What is done?

confusus est Moab quoniam victus est ululate et clamate adnuntiate in Arnon quoniam vastata est Moab

Moab is confounded; for it is broken down: howl and cry; tell ye it in Arnon, that Moab is spoiled,

et iudicium venit ad terram campestrem super Helon et super Iaesa et super Mefath

And judgment is come upon the plain country; upon Holon, and upon Jahazah, and upon Mephaath,

et super Dibon et super Nabo et super domum Deblathaim

And upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Beth–diblathaim,

et super Cariathaim et super Bethgamul et super Bethmaon

And upon Kiriathaim, and upon Beth–gamul, and upon Beth–meon,

et super Carioth et super Bosra et super omnes civitates terrae Moab quae longe et quae prope sunt

And upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near.

abscisum est cornu Moab et brachium eius contritum est ait Dominus

The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, saith the LORD.

inebriate eum quoniam contra Dominum erectus est et adlidet manum Moab in vomitu suo et erit in derisum etiam ipse

Make ye him drunken: for he magnified himself against the LORD: Moab also shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision.

fuit enim in derisum tibi Israhel quasi inter fures repperisses eum propter verba ergo tua quae adversum illum locutus es captivus duceris

For was not Israel a derision unto thee? was he found among thieves? for since thou spakest of him, thou skippedst for joy.

relinquite civitates et habitate in petra habitatores Moab et estote quasi columba nidificans in summo ore foraminis

O ye that dwell in Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock, and be like the dove that maketh her nest in the sides of the hole's mouth.

audivimus superbiam Moab superbus est valde sublimitatem eius et arrogantiam et superbiam et altitudinem cordis illius

We have heard the pride of Moab, (he is exceeding proud) his loftiness, and his arrogancy, and his pride, and the haughtiness of his heart.

ego scio ait Dominus iactantiam eius et quod non sit iuxta eam virtus eius nec iuxta quod poterat conata sit facere

I know his wrath, saith the LORD; but it shall not be so; his lies shall not so effect it.

ideo super Moab heiulabo et ad Moab universam clamabo ad viros muri fictilis lamentantes

Therefore will I howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; mine heart shall mourn for the men of Kir–heres.

de planctu Iazer plorabo tibi vinea Sobema propagines tuae transierunt mare usque ad mare Iazer pervenerunt super messem tuam et vindemiam tuam praedo inruit

O vine of Sibmah, I will weep for thee with the weeping of Jazer: thy plants are gone over the sea, they reach even to the sea of Jazer: the spoiler is fallen upon thy summer fruits and upon thy vintage.

ablata est laetitia et exultatio de Carmelo et de terra Moab et vinum de torcularibus sustuli nequaquam calcator uvae solitum celeuma cantabit

And joy and gladness is taken from the plentiful field, and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses: none shall tread with shouting; their shouting shall be no shouting.

de clamore Esebon usque Eleale et Iaesa dederunt vocem suam a Segor usque ad Oronaim vitula conternante aquae quoque Namrim pessimae erunt

From the cry of Heshbon even unto Elealeh, and even unto Jahaz, have they uttered their voice, from Zoar even unto Horonaim, as an heifer of three years old: for the waters also of Nimrim shall be desolate.

et auferam de Moab ait Dominus offerentem in excelsis et sacrificantem diis eius

Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, saith the LORD, him that offereth in the high places, and him that burneth incense to his gods.

propterea cor meum ad Moab quasi tibiae resonabit et cor meum ad viros muri fictilis dabit sonitum tibiarum quia plus fecit quam potuit idcirco perierunt

Therefore mine heart shall sound for Moab like pipes, and mine heart shall sound like pipes for the men of Kir–heres: because the riches that he hath gotten are perished.

omne enim caput calvitium et omnis barba rasa erit in cunctis manibus conligatio et super omne dorsum cilicium

For every head shall be bald, and every beard clipped: upon all the hands shall be cuttings, and upon the loins sackcloth.

super omnia tecta Moab et in plateis eius omnis planctus quia contrivi Moab sicut vas inutile ait Dominus

There shall be lamentation generally upon all the housetops of Moab, and in the streets thereof: for I have broken Moab like a vessel wherein is no pleasure, saith the LORD.

quomodo victa est et ululaverunt quomodo deiecit cervicem Moab et confusus est eritque Moab in derisum et in exemplum omnibus in circuitu suo

They shall howl, saying, How is it broken down! how hath Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all them about him.

haec dicit Dominus ecce quasi aquila evolabit et extendet alas suas ad Moab

For thus saith the LORD; Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread his wings over Moab.

capta est Carioth et munitiones conprehensae sunt et erit cor fortium Moab in die illa sicut cor mulieris parturientis

Kerioth is taken, and the strong holds are surprised, and the mighty men's hearts in Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.

et cessabit Moab esse populus quoniam contra Dominum gloriatus est

And Moab shall be destroyed from being a people, because he hath magnified himself against the LORD.

pavor et fovea et laqueus super te o habitator Moab ait Dominus

Fear, and the pit, and the snare, shall be upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith the LORD.

qui fugit a facie pavoris cadet in foveam et qui conscenderit de fovea capietur laqueo adducam enim super Moab annum visitationis eorum dicit Dominus

He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon it, even upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.

in umbra Esebon steterunt de laqueo fugientes quia ignis egressus est de Esebon et flamma de medio Seon et devorabit partem Moab et verticem filiorum tumultus

They that fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon because of the force: but a fire shall come forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and shall devour the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones.

vae tibi Moab peristi popule Chamos quia conprehensi sunt filii tui et filiae tuae in captivitatem

Woe be unto thee, O Moab! the people of Chemosh perisheth: for thy sons are taken captives, and thy daughters captives.

et convertam captivitatem Moab in novissimis diebus ait Dominus hucusque iudicia Moab

Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab in the latter days, saith the LORD. Thus far is the judgment of Moab.
