Jeremiah 5:17
And they shall eat up thine harvest, and thy bread, which thy sons and thy daughters should eat: they shall eat up thy flocks and thine herds: they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig trees: they shall impoverish thy fenced cities, wherein thou trustedst, with the sword.
KJV
Et comedet segetes tuas et panem tuum ; devorabit filios tuos et filias tuas ; comedet gregem tuum et armenta tua ; comedet vineam tuam et ficum tuam : et conteret urbes munitas tuas, in quibus tu habes fiduciam, gladio.
Vulgate
καὶ τοὺς ἄρτους ὑμῶν, καὶ κατέδονται τοὺς υἱοὺς ὑμῶν καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας ὑμῶν, καὶ κατέδονται τὰ πρόβατα ὑμῶν καὶ τοὺς μόσχους ὑμῶν, καὶ κατέδονται τοὺς ἀμπελῶνας ὑμῶν καὶ τοὺς συκῶνας ὑμῶν καὶ τοὺς ἐλαιῶνας ὑμῶν· καὶ ἀλοήσουσιν τὰς πόλεις, τὰς πόλεις τὰς ὀχυρὰς ὑμῶν, ἐφ’ αἷς ὑμεῖς πεποίθατε ἐπ’ αὐταῖς, ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ.
LXX
And they shall eat up thy harvest, and thy bread, which thy sons and thy daughters should eat; they shall eat up thy flocks and thy herds; they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig-trees; they shall beat down thy fortified cities, wherein thou trustest, with the sword.
