Baruch 5

Adapted from the World English Bible, Catholic Edition · Vulgate Baruch 5
English

1Take off the garment of your mourning and affliction, O Jerusalem, and put on forever the beauty of the glory from God. 2Put on the robe of the righteousness from God. Set on your head a diadem of the glory of the Everlasting. 3For God will show your splendor everywhere under heaven. 4For your name will be called by God forever “Righteous Peace, Godly Glory”.

5Arise, O Jerusalem, and stand upon the height. Look around you toward the east and see your children gathered from the going down of the sun to its rising at the word of the Holy One, rejoicing that God has remembered them. 6For they went from you on foot, being led away by their enemies, but God brings them in to you carried on high with glory, on a royal throne. 7For God has appointed that every high mountain and the everlasting hills should be made low, and the valleys filled up to make the ground level, that Israel may go safely in the glory of God. 8Moreover the woods and every sweet smelling tree have shaded Israel by the commandment of God. 9For God will lead Israel with joy in the light of His glory with the mercy and righteousness that come from Him.

Latin · Clementine Vulgate · Baruch 5

1Exue te, Jerusalem, stola luctus et vexationis tuæ, et indue te decore, et honore ejus, quæ a Deo tibi est, sempiternæ gloriæ. 2Circumdabit te Deus diploide justitiæ, et imponet mitram capiti honoris æterni. 3Deus enim ostendet splendorem suum in te, omni qui sub cælo est. 4Nominabitur enim tibi nomen tuum a Deo in sempiternum: pax justitiæ, et honor pietatis. 5Exsurge, Jerusalem, et sta in excelso: et circumspice ad orientem, et vide collectos filios tuos ab oriente sole usque ad occidentem, in verbo Sancti, gaudentes Dei memoria. 6Exierunt enim abs te pedibus ducti ab inimicis: adducet autem illos Dominus ad te portatos in honore sicut filios regni: 7constituit enim Deus humiliare omnem montem excelsum et rupes perennes, et convalles replere in æqualitatem terræ, ut ambulet Israël diligenter in honorem Dei. 8Obumbraverunt autem et silvæ, et omne lignum suavitatis Israël ex mandato Dei. 9Adducet enim Deus Israël cum jucunditate in lumine majestatis suæ, cum misericordia et justitia quæ est ex ipso.
