Isaiah 22
1 The burden of the valley of vision. What troubles thee now, that thou have wholly gone up to the housetops?
onus vallis Visionis quidnam tibi quoque est quia ascendisti et tu omnis in tecta
2 O thou that are full of shoutings, a tumultuous city, a joyous town. Thy slain are not slain with the sword, nor are they dead in battle.
clamoris plena urbs frequens civitas exultans interfecti tui non interfecti gladio nec mortui in bello
3 All thy rulers fled away together. They were bound by the archers. All who were found of thee were bound together; they fled afar off.
cuncti principes tui fugerunt simul dureque ligati sunt omnes qui inventi sunt vincti sunt pariter procul fugerunt
4 Therefore I said, Look away from me. I will weep bitterly. Labor not to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
propterea dixi recedite a me amare flebo nolite incumbere ut consolemini me super vastitate filiae populi mei
5 For it is a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity, from the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, in the valley of vision, a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains.
dies enim interfectionis et conculcationis et fletuum Domino Deo exercituum in valle Visionis scrutans murum et magnificus super montem
6 And Elam bore the quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.
et Aelam sumpsit faretram currum hominis equitis et parietem nudavit clypeus
7 And it came to pass, that thy choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.
et erunt electae valles tuae plenae quadrigarum et equites ponent sedes suas in porta
8 And he took away the covering of Judah, and thou looked in that day to the armor in the house of the forest.
et revelabitur operimentum Iudae et videbis in die illa armamentarium domus saltus
9 And ye saw the breaches of the city of David, that they were many. And to fortify the wall, ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool,
et scissuras civitatis David videbitis quia multiplicatae sunt et congregastis aquas piscinae inferioris
10 and ye numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and ye broke down the houses.
et domos Hierusalem numerastis et destruxistis domos ad muniendum murum
11 Ye also made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But ye did not look to him who had done this, nor had ye respect to him who purposed it long ago.
et lacum fecistis inter duos muros et aquam piscinae veteris et non suspexistis ad eum qui fecerat eam et operatorem eius de longe non vidistis
12 And in that day the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, called for weeping, and for mourning, and for baldness, and for girding with sackcloth.
et vocavit Dominus Deus exercituum in die illa ad fletum et ad planctum ad calvitium et ad cingulum sacci
13 And, behold, joy and gladness, slaying oxen and killing sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine. Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall die.
et ecce gaudium et laetitia occidere vitulos et iugulare arietes comedere carnes et bibere vinum comedamus et bibamus cras enim moriemur
14 And Jehovah of hosts revealed himself in my ears, Surely this iniquity shall not be forgiven you till ye die, says the Lord, Jehovah of hosts.
et revelata est in auribus meis Domini exercituum si dimittetur iniquitas haec vobis donec moriamini dicit Dominus Deus exercituum
15 Thus says the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, Go, get thee to this treasurer, even to Shebna, who is over the house, and say,
haec dicit Dominus Deus exercituum vade ingredere ad eum qui habitat in tabernaculo ad Sobnam praepositum templi
16 What are thou doing here? And whom have thou here, that thou have hewed thee out here a sepulcher? Hewing him out a sepulcher on high, carving a habitation for himself in the rock!
quid tu hic aut quasi quis hic quia excidisti tibi hic sepulchrum excidisti in excelso memoriam diligenter in petra tabernaculum tibi
17 Behold, Jehovah, like a strong man, will hurl thee away violently. Yea, he will wrap thee up closely.
ecce Dominus asportari te faciet sicut asportatur gallus gallinacius et quasi amictum sic sublevabit te
18 He will surely wind thee round and round, tossing like a ball into a large country. There thou shall die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall be, thou shame of thy lord's house.
coronans coronabit te tribulatione quasi pilam mittet te in terram latam et spatiosam ibi morieris et ibi erit currus gloriae tuae ignominia domus Domini tui
19 And I will thrust thee from thine office, and thou shall be pulled down from thy station.
et expellam te de statione tua et de ministerio tuo deponam te
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah.
et erit in die illa vocabo servum meum Eliachim filium Helciae
21 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy belt. And I will commit thy government into his hand, and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
et induam illum tunicam tuam et cingulo tuo confortabo eum et potestatem tuam dabo in manu eius et erit quasi pater habitantibus Hierusalem et domui Iuda
22 And I will lay the key of the house of David upon his shoulder, and he shall open, and none shall shut, and he shall shut, and none shall open.
et dabo clavem domus David super umerum eius et aperiet et non erit qui claudat et claudet et non erit qui aperiat
23 And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place, and he shall be for a throne of glory to his father's house.
et figam illum paxillum in loco fideli et erit in solium gloriae domui patris sui
24 And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to all the flagons.
et suspendent super eum omnem gloriam domus patris eius vasorum diversa genera omne vas parvulum a vasis craterarum usque ad omne vas musicorum
25 In that day, says Jehovah of hosts, the nail that was fastened in a sure place shall give way, and it shall be hewn down, and fall. And the burden that was upon it shall be cut off, for Jehovah has spoken it.
in die illo dicit Dominus exercituum auferetur paxillus qui fixus fuerat in loco fideli et frangetur et cadet et peribit quod pependerat in eo quia Dominus locutus est
