KJV ¹ Ask ye of the LORD rain in the time of the latter rain; so the LORD shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain, to every one grass in the field.

et Dominus faciet nives :
et pluviam imbris dabit eis,
singulis herbam in agro.

KJV ² For the idols have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie, and have told false dreams; they comfort in vain: therefore they went their way as a flock, they were troubled, because there was no shepherd.

VULC ² Quia simulacra locuta sunt inutile,
et divini viderunt mendacium :
et somniatores locuti sunt frustra,
vane consolabantur :
idcirco abducti sunt quasi grex :
affligentur, quia non est eis pastor.

KJV ³ Mine anger was kindled against the shepherds, and I punished the goats: for the LORD of hosts hath visited his flock the house of Judah, and hath made them as his goodly horse in the battle.

VULC ³ Super pastores iratus est furor meus,
et super hircos visitabo :
quia visitavit Dominus exercituum gregem suum, domum Juda,
et posuit eos quasi equum gloriæ suæ in bello.

KJV ⁴ Out of him came forth the corner, out of him the nail, out of him the battle bow, out of him every oppressor together.

VULC ⁴ Ex ipso angulus, ex ipso paxillus,
ex ipso arcus prælii,
ex ipso egredietur omnis exactor simul.

KJV ⁵ And they shall be as mighty men, which tread down their enemies in the mire of the streets in the battle: and they shall fight, because the LORD is with them, and the riders on horses shall be confounded.

VULC ⁵ Et erunt quasi fortes conculcantes lutum viarum in prælio,
et bellabunt, quia Dominus cum eis :
et confundentur ascensores equorum.

KJV ⁶ And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them again to place them; for I have mercy upon them: and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am the LORD their God, and will hear them.

VULC ⁶ Et confortabo domum Juda,
et domum Joseph salvabo :
et convertam eos, quia miserebor eorum :
et erunt sicut fuerunt quando non projeceram eos :
ego enim Dominus Deus eorum, et exaudiam eos.

KJV ⁷ And they of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, and their heart shall rejoice as through wine: yea, their children shall see it, and be glad; their heart shall rejoice in the LORD.

VULC ⁷ Et erunt quasi fortes Ephraim,
et lætabitur cor eorum quasi a vino :
et filii eorum videbunt, et lætabuntur,
et exsultabit cor eorum in Domino.

KJV ⁸ I will hiss for them, and gather them; for I have redeemed them: and they shall increase as they have increased.

VULC ⁸ Sibilabo eis, et congregabo illos,
quia redemi eos :
et multiplicabo eos sicut ante fuerant multiplicati.

KJV ⁹ And I will sow them among the people: and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children, and turn again.

VULC ⁹ Et seminabo eos in populis,
et de longe recordabuntur mei :
et vivent cum filiis suis, et revertentur.

KJV ¹⁰ I will bring them again also out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon; and place shall not be found for them.

VULC ¹⁰ Et reducam eos de terra Ægypti,
et de Assyriis congregabo eos,
et ad terram Galaad et Libani adducam eos,
et non invenietur eis locus :

KJV ¹¹ And he shall pass through the sea with affliction, and shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the deeps of the river shall dry up: and the pride of Assyria shall be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt shall depart away.

VULC ¹¹ et transibit in maris freto,
et percutiet in mari fluctus,
et confundentur omnia profunda fluminis :
et humiliabitur superbia Assur,
et sceptrum Ægypti recedet.

KJV ¹² And I will strengthen them in the LORD; and they shall walk up and down in his name, saith the LORD.

VULC ¹² Confortabo eos in Domino,
et in nomine ejus ambulabunt, dicit Dominus.]
