| Jeremiah 13 Text (WEB)
|
- Thus says Yahweh to me, Go, and buy yourself a linen belt, and put it on your waist, and don't put it in water.
- So I bought a belt according to the word of Yahweh, and put it on my waist.
- The word of Yahweh came to me the second time, saying,
- Take the belt that you have bought, which is on your waist, and arise, go to the Euphrates, and hide it there in a cleft of the rock.
- So I went, and hid it by the Euphrates, as Yahweh commanded me.
- It happened after many days, that Yahweh said to me, Arise, go to the Euphrates, and take the belt from there, which I commanded you to hide there.
- Then I went to the Euphrates, and dug, and took the belt from the place where I had hidden it; and behold, the belt was marred, it was profitable for nothing.
- Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
- Thus says Yahweh, In this way I will mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.
- This evil people, who refuse to hear my words, who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, and are gone after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this belt, which is profitable for nothing.
- For as the belt clings to the waist of a man, so have I caused to cling to me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, says Yahweh; that they may be to me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.
- Therefore you shall speak to them this word: Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, Every bottle shall be filled with wine: and they shall tell you, Do we not certainly know that every bottle shall be filled with wine?
- Then you shall tell them, Thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings who sit on David's throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
- I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, says Yahweh: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have compassion, that I should not destroy them.
- Hear, and give ear; don't be proud; for Yahweh has spoken.
- Give glory to Yahweh your God, before he causes darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and, while you look for light, he turns it into the shadow of death, and makes it gross darkness.
- But if you will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret for [your] pride; and my eye shall weep bitterly, and run down with tears, because Yahweh's flock is taken captive.
- Say to the king and to the queen mother, Humble yourselves, sit down; for your headdresses have come down, even the crown of your glory.
- The cities of the South are shut up, and there is none to open them: Judah is carried away captive, all of it; it is wholly carried away captive.
- Lift up your eyes, and see those who come from the north: where is the flock that was given you, your beautiful flock?
- What will you say, when he shall set over you as head those whom you have yourself taught to be friends to you? shall not sorrows take hold of you, as of a woman in travail?
- If you say in your heart, Why are these things come on me? for the greatness of your iniquity are your skirts uncovered, and your heels suffer violence.
- Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may you also do good, who are accustomed to do evil.
- Therefore will I scatter them, as the stubble that passes away, by the wind of the wilderness.
- This is your lot, the portion measured to you from me, says Yahweh; because you have forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood.
- Therefore will I also uncover your skirts on your face, and your shame shall appear.
- I have seen your abominations, even your adulteries, and your neighing, the lewdness of your prostitution, on the hills in the field. Woe to you, Jerusalem! You will not be made clean; how long shall it yet be?

|
- כה־אמר יהוה אלי הלוך וקנית לך אזור פשתים ושמתו על־מתניך ובמים לא תבאהו׃
- ואקנה את־האזור כדבר יהוה ואשם על־מתני׃ ס
- ויהי דבר־יהוה אלי שנית לאמר׃
- קח את־האזור אשר קנית אשר על־מתניך וקום לך פרתה וטמנהו שם בנקיק הסלע׃
- ואלך ואטמנהו בפרת כאשר צוה יהוה אותי׃
- ויהי מקץ ימים רבים ויאמר יהוה אלי קום לך פרתה וקח משם את־האזור אשר צויתיך לטמנו־שם׃
- ואלך פרתה ואחפר ואקח את־האזור מן־המקום אשר־טמנתיו שמה והנה נשחת האזור לא יצלח לכל׃ ף
- ויהי דבר־יהוה אלי לאמר׃
- כה אמר יהוה ככה אשחית את־גאון יהודה ואת־גאון ירושלם הרב׃
- העם הזה הרע המאנים לשמוע את־דברי ההלכים בשררות לבם וילכו אחרי אלהים אחרים לעבדם ולהשתחות להם ויהי כאזור הזה אשר לא־יצלח לכל׃
- כי כאשר ידבק האזור אל־מתני־איש כן הדבקתי אלי את־כל־בית ישראל ואת־כל־בית יהודה נאם־יהוה להיות לי לעם ולשם ולתהלה ולתפארת ולא שמעו׃
- ואמרת אליהם את־הדבר הזה ס כה־אמר יהוה אלהי ישראל כל־נבל ימלא יין ואמרו אליך הידע לא נדע כי כל־נבל ימלא יין׃
- ואמרת אליהם כה־אמר יהוה הנני ממלא את־כל־ישבי הארץ הזאת ואת־המלכים הישבים לדוד על־כסאו ואת־הכהנים ואת־הנביאים ואת כל־ישבי ירושלם שכרון׃
- ונפצתים איש אל־אחיו והאבות והבנים יחדו נאם־יהוה לא־אחמול ולא־אחוס ולא ארחם מהשחיתם׃ ס
- שמעו והאזינו אל־תגבהו כי יהוה דבר׃
- תנו ליהוה אלהיכם כבוד בטרם יחשך ובטרם יתנגפו רגליכם על־הרי נשף וקויתם לאור ושמה לצלמות לערפל׃
- ואם לא תשמעוה במסתרים תבכה־נפשי מפני גוה ודמע תדמע ותרד עיני דמעה כי נשבה עדר יהוה׃ ס
- אמר למלך ולגבירה השפילו שבו כי ירד מראשותיכם עטרת תפארתכם׃
- ערי הנגב סגרו ואין פתח הגלת יהודה כלה הגלת שלומים׃ ס
- עיניכם הבאים מצפון איה העדר נתן־לך צאן תפארתך׃
- מה־תאמרי כי־יפקד עליך ואת למדת אתם עליך אלפים לראש הלוא חבלים יאחזוך כמו אשת לדה׃
- וכי תאמרי בלבבך מדוע קראני אלה ברב עונך נגלו שוליך נחמסו עקביך׃
- היהפך כושי עורו ונמר חברברתיו גם־אתם תוכלו להיטיב למדי הרע׃
- ואפיצם כקש־עובר לרוח מדבר׃
- זה גורלך מנת־מדיך מאתי נאם־יהוה אשר שכחת אותי ותבטחי בשקר׃
- וגם־אני חשפתי שוליך על־פניך ונראה קלונך׃
- נאפיך ומצהלותיך זמת זנותך על־גבעות בשדה ראיתי שקוציך אוי לך ירושלם לא תטהרי אחרי מתי עד׃ ף

| Jeremiah 13 Text (Latin)
|
- Hæc dicit Dominus ad me : Vade, et posside tibi lumbare lineum, et pones illud super lumbos tuos, et in aquam non inferes illud.
- Et possedi lumbare, juxta verbum Domini, et posui circa lumbos meos.
- Et factus est sermo Domini ad me secundo, dicens :
- Tolle lumbare quod possedisti, quod est circa lumbos tuos : et surgens vade ad Euphraten, et absconde ibi illud in foramine petræ.
- Et abii, et abscondi illud in Euphrate, sicut præceperat mihi Dominus.
- Et factum est post dies plurimos, dixit Dominus ad me : Surge, vade ad Euphraten, et tolle inde lumbare quod præcepi tibi ut absconderes illud ibi.
- Et abii ad Euphraten, et fodi, et tuli lumbare de loco ubi absconderam illud : et ecce computruerat lumbare, ita ut nulli usui aptum esset.
- Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens :
- Hæc dicit Dominus : Sic putrescere faciam superbiam Juda, et superbiam Jerusalem multam :
- populum istum pessimum qui nolunt audire verba mea, et ambulant in pravitate cordis sui, abieruntque post deos alienos ut servirent eis et adorarent eos : et erunt sicut lumbare istud, quod nulli usui aptum est.
- Sicut enim adhæret lumbare ad lumbos viri, sic agglutinavi mihi omnem domum Israël, et omnem domum Juda, dicit Dominus, ut essent mihi in populum, et in nomen, et in laudem, et in gloriam, et non audierunt.
- Dices ergo ad eos sermonem istum : Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël : Omnis laguncula implebitur vino. Et dicent ad te : Numquid ignoramus quia omnis laguncula implebitur vino ?
- Et dices ad eos : Hæc dicit Dominus : Ecce ego implebo omnes habitatores terræ hujus, et reges qui sedent de stirpe David super thronum ejus, et sacerdotes, et prophetas, et omnes habitatores Jerusalem, ebrietate.
- Et dispergam eos virum a fratre suo, et patres et filios pariter, ait Dominus. Non parcam, et non concedam : neque miserebor, ut non disperdam eos.
- Audite, et auribus percipite : nolite elevari, quia Dominus locutus est.
- Date Domino Deo vestro gloriam antequam contenebrescat, et antequam offendant pedes vestri ad montes caliginosos : exspectabitis lucem, et ponet eam in umbram mortis, et in caliginem.
- Quod si hoc non audieritis, in abscondito plorabit anima mea a facie superbiæ : plorans plorabit, et deducet oculus meus lacrimam, quia captus est grex Domini.
- Dic regi et dominatrici : Humiliamini, sedete, quoniam descendit de capite vestro corona gloriæ vestræ.
- Civitates austri clausæ sunt, et non est qui aperiat. Translata est omnis Juda transmigratione perfecta.
- Levate oculos vestros, et videte qui venitis ab aquilone : ubi est grex qui datus est tibi, pecus inclytum tuum ?
- Quod dices cum visitaverit te ? tu enim docuisti eos adversum te, et erudisti in caput tuum. Numquid non dolores apprehendent te, quasi mulierem parturientem ?
- Quod si dixeris in corde tuo : Quare venerunt mihi hæc ? propter multitudinem iniquitatis tuæ revelata sunt verecundiora tua, pollutæ sunt plantæ tuæ.
- Si mutare potest Æthiops pellem suam, aut pardus varietates suas, et vos poteritis bene facere, cum didiceritis malum.
- Et disseminabo eos quasi stipulam quæ vento raptatur in deserto.
- Hæc sors tua, parsque mensuræ tuæ a me, dicit Dominus, quia oblita es mei, et confisa es in mendacio.
- Unde et ego nudavi femora tua contra faciem tuam, et apparuit ignominia tua,
- adulteria tua, et hinnitus tuus, scelus fornicationis tuæ : super colles in agro vidi abominationes tuas. Væ tibi, Jerusalem ! non mundaberis post me : usquequo adhuc ?

| Jeremiah 13 Text (KJV)
|
- Thus saith the LORD unto me, Go and get thee a linen girdle, and put it upon thy loins, and put it not in water.
- So I got a girdle according to the word of the LORD, and put it on my loins.
- And the word of the LORD came unto me the second time, saying,
- Take the girdle that thou hast got, which is upon thy loins, and arise, go to Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock.
- So I went, and hid it by Euphrates, as the LORD commanded me.
- And it came to pass after many days, that the LORD said unto me, Arise, go to Euphrates, and take the girdle from thence, which I commanded thee to hide there.
- Then I went to Euphrates, and digged, and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it: and, behold, the girdle was marred, it was profitable for nothing.
- Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
- Thus saith the LORD, After this manner will I mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.
- This evil people, which refuse to hear my words, which walk in the imagination of their heart, and walk after other gods, to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this girdle, which is good for nothing.
- For as the girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, saith the LORD; that they might be unto me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.
- Therefore thou shalt speak unto them this word; Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Every bottle shall be filled with wine: and they shall say unto thee, Do we not certainly know that every bottle shall be filled with wine?
- Then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings that sit upon David's throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
- And I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, saith the LORD: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, but destroy them.
- Hear ye, and give ear; be not proud: for the LORD hath spoken.
- Give glory to the LORD your God, before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains, and, while ye look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and make it gross darkness.
- But if ye will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places for your pride; and mine eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because the LORD's flock is carried away captive.
- Say unto the king and to the queen, Humble yourselves, sit down: for your principalities shall come down, even the crown of your glory.
- The cities of the south shall be shut up, and none shall open them: Judah shall be carried away captive all of it, it shall be wholly carried away captive.
- Lift up your eyes, and behold them that come from the north: where is the flock that was given thee, thy beautiful flock?
- What wilt thou say when he shall punish thee? for thou hast taught them to be captains, and as chief over thee: shall not sorrows take thee, as a woman in travail?
- And if thou say in thine heart, Wherefore come these things upon me? For the greatness of thine iniquity are thy skirts discovered, and thy heels made bare.
- Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil.
- Therefore will I scatter them as the stubble that passeth away by the wind of the wilderness.
- This is thy lot, the portion of thy measures from me, saith the LORD; because thou hast forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood.
- Therefore will I discover thy skirts upon thy face, that thy shame may appear.
- I have seen thine adulteries, and thy neighings, the lewdness of thy whoredom, and thine abominations on the hills in the fields. Woe unto thee, O Jerusalem! wilt thou not be made clean? when shall it once be?
