Jeremiah 7

verbum quod factum est ad Hieremiam a Domino dicens

The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

sta in porta domus Domini et praedica ibi verbum istud et dic audite verbum Domini omnis Iuda qui ingredimini per portas has ut adoretis Dominum

Stand in the gate of the LORD'S house, and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the word of the LORD, all ye of Judah, that enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.

haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel bonas facite vias vestras et studia vestra et habitabo vobiscum in loco isto

Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.

nolite confidere in verbis mendacii dicentes templum Domini templum Domini templum Domini est

Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, are these.

quoniam si bene direxeritis vias vestras et studia vestra si feceritis iudicium inter virum et proximum eius

For if ye throughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye throughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbour;

advenae et pupillo et viduae non feceritis calumniam nec sanguinem innocentem effuderitis in loco hoc et post deos alienos non ambulaveritis in malum vobismet ipsis

If ye oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your hurt:

habitabo vobiscum in loco isto in terra quam dedi patribus vestris a saeculo usque in saeculum

Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, for ever and ever.

ecce vos confiditis vobis in sermonibus mendacii qui non proderunt vobis

Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit.

furari occidere adulterare iurare mendaciter libare Baali et ire post deos alienos quos ignoratis

Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not;

et venistis et stetistis coram me in domo hac in qua invocatum est nomen meum et dixistis liberati sumus eo quod fecerimus omnes abominationes istas

And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered to do all these abominations?

ergo spelunca latronum facta est domus ista in qua invocatum est nomen meum in oculis vestris ego ego sum ego vidi dicit Dominus

Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it, saith the LORD.

ite ad locum meum in Silo ubi habitavit nomen meum a principio et videte quae fecerim ei propter malitiam populi mei Israhel

But go ye now unto my place which was in Shiloh, where I set my name at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.

et nunc quia fecistis omnia opera haec dicit Dominus et locutus sum ad vos mane consurgens et loquens et non audistis et vocavi vos et non respondistis

And now, because ye have done all these works, saith the LORD, and I spake unto you, rising up early and speaking, but ye heard not; and I called you, but ye answered not;

faciam domui huic in qua invocatum est nomen meum et in qua vos habetis fiduciam et loco quem dedi vobis et patribus vestris sicut feci Silo

Therefore will I do unto this house, which is called by my name, wherein ye trust, and unto the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

et proiciam vos a facie mea sicut proieci omnes fratres vestros universum semen Ephraim

And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephraim.

tu ergo noli orare pro populo hoc nec adsumas pro eis laudem et orationem et non obsistas mihi quia non exaudiam te

Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I will not hear thee.

nonne vides quid isti faciant in civitatibus Iuda et in plateis Hierusalem

Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

filii colligunt ligna et patres succendunt ignem et mulieres conspergunt adipem ut faciant placentas Reginae caeli et libent diis alienis et me ad iracundiam provocent

The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.

numquid me ad iracundiam provocant dicit Dominus nonne semet ipsos in confusionem vultus sui

Do they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?

ideo haec dicit Dominus Deus ecce furor meus et indignatio mea conflatur super locum istum super viros et super iumenta et super lignum regionis et super fruges terrae et succendetur et non extinguetur

Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, mine anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place, upon man, and upon beast, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.

haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel holocaustomata vestra addite victimis vestris et comedite carnes

Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Put your burnt offerings unto your sacrifices, and eat flesh.

quia non sum locutus cum patribus vestris et non praecepi eis in die qua eduxi eos de terra Aegypti de verbo holocaustomatum et victimarum

For I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:

sed hoc verbum praecepi eis dicens audite vocem meam et ero vobis Deus et vos eritis mihi populus et ambulate in omni via quam mandavi vobis ut bene sit vobis

But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.

et non audierunt nec inclinaverunt aurem suam sed abierunt in voluntatibus et pravitate cordis sui mali factique sunt retrorsum et non in ante

But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.

a die qua egressi sunt patres eorum de terra Aegypti usque ad diem hanc et misi ad vos omnes servos meos prophetas per diem consurgens diluculo et mittens

Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto this day I have even sent unto you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them:

et non audierunt me nec inclinaverunt aurem suam sed induraverunt cervicem et peius operati sunt quam patres eorum

Yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.

et loqueris ad eos omnia verba haec et non audient te et vocabis eos et non respondebunt tibi

Therefore thou shalt speak all these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee: thou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee.

et dices ad eos haec est gens quae non audivit vocem Domini Dei sui nec recepit disciplinam periit fides et ablata est de ore eorum

But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the LORD their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.

tonde capillum tuum et proice et sume in directum planctum quia proiecit Dominus et reliquit generationem furoris sui

Cut off thine hair, O Jerusalem, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on high places; for the LORD hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.

quia fecerunt filii Iuda malum in oculis meis dicit Dominus posuerunt offendicula sua in domo in qua invocatum est nomen meum ut polluerent eam

For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the LORD: they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it.

et aedificaverunt excelsa Thofeth qui est in valle filii Ennom ut incenderent filios suos et filias suas igni quae non praecepi nec cogitavi in corde meo

And they have built the high places of Tophet, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my heart.

ideo ecce dies venient dicit Dominus et non dicetur amplius Thofeth et vallis filii Ennom sed vallis Interfectionis et sepelient in Thofeth eo quod non sit locus

Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be called Tophet, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter: for they shall bury in Tophet, till there be no place.

et erit morticinum populi huius in cibum volucribus caeli et bestiis terrae et non erit qui abigat

And the carcases of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; and none shall fray them away.

et quiescere faciam de urbibus Iuda et de plateis Hierusalem vocem gaudii et vocem laetitiae vocem sponsi et vocem sponsae in desolatione enim erit terra

Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.
