2 SOPHONIAS PROPHETA Sofonye - Wycliffe Bible(14c) Sophonias - Douay Rheims(17c) Reference
4Quia Gaza destructa erit,
et Ascalon in desertum:
Azotum in meridie ejicient,
et Accaron eradicabitur.
 The doom of the nations around Israel. Zph.2.4-15
5Væ qui habitatis funiculum maris, gens perditorum !
verbum Domini super vos, Chanaan, terra Philisthinorum;
et disperdam te, ita ut non sit inhabitator.
  
6Et erit funiculus maris requies pastorum, et caulæ pecorum;
  
7et erit funiculus ejus qui remanserit de domo Juda: ibi pascentur,
in domibus Ascalonis ad vesperam requiescent,
quia visitabit eos Dominus Deus eorum,
et avertet captivitatem eorum.
  
8Audivi opprobrium Moab,
et blasphemias filiorum Ammon,
quæ exprobraverunt populo meo,
et magnificati sunt super terminos eorum.
  
9Propterea vivo ego, dicit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israël,
quia Moab ut Sodoma erit,
et filii Ammon quasi Gomorrha:
siccitas spinarum, et acervi salis,
et desertum usque in æternum:
reliquiæ populi		  
10Hoc eis eveniet pro superbia sua,
quia blasphemaverunt et magnificati sunt
super populum Domini exercituum.
  
11Horribilis Dominus super eos,
et attenuabit omnes deos terræ:
et adorabunt eum viri de loco suo,
omnes insulæ gentium.
  
12Sed et vos, Æthiopes, interfecti gladio meo eritis.
  
13Et extendet manum suam super aquilonem, et perdet Assur,
et ponet speciosam in solitudinem,
et in invium, et quasi desertum.
  
14Et accubabunt in medio ejus greges, omnes bestiæ gentium;
et onocrotalus et ericius in liminibus ejus morabuntur:
vox cantantis in fenestra,
corvus in superliminari,
quoniam attenuabo robur ejus.
  
15Hæc est civitas gloriosa habitans in confidentia,
quæ dicebat in corde suo:
Ego sum, et extra me non est alia amplius:
quomodo facta est in desertum cubile bestiæ?
omnis qui transit per eam sibila		  
1Væ provocatrix, et redempta civitas, columba !
  

Notes: For the Bible in Latin, I have used the Vulgate text at the Clementine Vulgate Project website.
The only English translations from the Vulgate that are readily available are John Wycliffe's 14th century English Bible, and the the Douay Rheims/Challoner versions. I have used the Wycliffe Bible text from the Wesley Centre website, where you can view this Bible in a number of formats. I have used the Douay Rheims Text at the Unbound Bible website. You can view the Douay Rheims Bible in a more readable format at DRBO.ORG website.
The katapi New Study Bible reference section: displays links to parallel passages. Passage headings are generally as printed in the Bible Society's "Good News Bible", 1976.
