Jr 15 (King James)

¹ Then said the LORD unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.
² And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the LORD; Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.
³ And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the LORD: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.
⁴ And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
⁵ For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go aside to ask how thou doest?
⁶ Thou hast forsaken me, saith the LORD, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.
⁷ And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave them of children, I will destroy my people since they return not from their ways.
⁸ Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noonday: I have caused him to fall upon it suddenly, and terrors upon the city.
⁹ She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while it was yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the LORD.
¹⁰ Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; yet every one of them doth curse me.
¹¹ The LORD said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant; verily I will cause the enemy to entreat thee well in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
¹² Shall iron break the northern iron and the steel?
¹³ Thy substance and thy treasures will I give to the spoil without price, and that for all thy sins, even in all thy borders.
¹⁴ And I will make thee to pass with thine enemies into a land which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger, which shall burn upon you.
¹⁵ O LORD, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke.
¹⁶ Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.
¹⁷ I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation.
¹⁸ Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, and as waters that fail?
¹⁹ Therefore thus saith the LORD, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them.
²⁰ And I will make thee unto this people a fenced brasen wall: and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee: for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the LORD.
²¹ And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.

Jr 15 (Vulgate)

¹ Et dixit Dominus ad me : [Si steterit Moyses et Samuel coram me, non est anima mea ad populum istum : ejice illos a facie mea, et egrediantur.
² Quod si dixerint ad te : Quo egrediemur ? dices ad eos : Hæc dicit Dominus : Qui ad mortem, ad mortem, et qui ad gladium, ad gladium, et qui ad famem, ad famem, et qui ad captivitatem, ad captivitatem.
³ Et visitabo super eos quatuor species, dicit Dominus : gladium ad occisionem, et canes ad lacerandum, et volatilia cæli et bestias terræ ad devorandum et dissipandum.
⁴ Et dabo eos in fervorem universis regnis terræ, propter Manassen filium Ezechiæ regis Juda, super omnibus quæ fecit in Jerusalem.
⁵ Quis enim miserebitur tui, Jerusalem, aut quis contristabitur pro te ? aut quis ibit ad rogandum pro pace tua ?
⁶ Tu reliquisti me, dicit Dominus ; retrorsum abiisti : et extendam manum meam super te, et interficiam te : laboravi rogans.
⁷ Et dispergam eos ventilabro in portis terræ : interfeci et disperdidi populum meum, et tamen a viis suis non sunt reversi.
⁸ Multiplicatæ sunt mihi viduæ ejus super arenam maris : induxi eis super matrem adolescentis vastatorem meridie : misi super civitates repente terrorem.
⁹ Infirmata est quæ peperit septem ; defecit anima ejus : occidit ei sol cum adhuc esset dies : confusa est, et erubuit : et residuos ejus in gladium dabo in conspectu inimicorum eorum, ait Dominus.]
¹⁰ [Væ mihi, mater mea ! quare genuisti me, virum rixæ, virum discordiæ in universa terra ? Non fœneravi, nec fœneravit mihi quisquam : omnes maledicunt mihi.
¹¹ Dicit Dominus : Si non reliquiæ tuæ in bonum, si non occurri tibi in tempore afflictionis, et in tempore tribulationis adversus inimicum.
¹² Numquid fœderabitur ferrum ferro ab aquilone, et æs ?
¹³ Divitias tuas et thesauros tuos in direptionem dabo gratis, in omnibus peccatis tuis, et in omnibus terminis tuis.
¹⁴ Et adducam inimicos tuos de terra quam nescis, quia ignis succensus est in furore meo : super vos ardebit.
¹⁵ Tu scis, Domine : recordare mei, et visita me, et tuere me ab his qui persequuntur me. Noli in patientia tua suscipere me : scito quoniam sustinui propter te opprobrium.
¹⁶ Inventi sunt sermones tui, et comedi eos : et factum est mihi verbum tuum in gaudium et in lætitiam cordis mei, quoniam invocatum est nomen tuum super me, Domine Deus exercituum.
¹⁷ Non sedi in concilio ludentium, et gloriatus sum a facie manus tuæ : solus sedebam, quoniam comminatione replesti me.
¹⁸ Quare factus est dolor meus perpetuus, et plaga mea desperabilis renuit curari ? facta est mihi quasi mendacium aquarum infidelium.
¹⁹ Propter hoc hæc dicit Dominus : Si converteris, convertam te, et ante faciem meam stabis : et si separaveris pretiosum a vili, quasi os meum eris : convertentur ipsi ad te, et tu non converteris ad eos.
²⁰ Et dabo te populo huic in murum æreum fortem : et bellabunt adversum te, et non prævalebunt, quia ego tecum sum ut salvem te, et eruam te, dicit Dominus :
²¹ et liberabo te de manu pessimorum, et redimam te de manu fortium.]
