Isaiah 42
1 “Here is My Servant, whom I uphold, My Chosen One, in whom My soul delights. I will put My Spirit on Him, and He will bring justice to the nations.
ecce servus meus suscipiam eum electus meus conplacuit sibi in illo anima mea dedi spiritum meum super eum iudicium gentibus proferet
2 He will not cry out or raise His voice, nor make His voice heard in the streets.
non clamabit neque accipiet personam nec audietur foris vox eius
3 A bruised reed He will not break and a smoldering wick He will not extinguish; He will faithfully bring forth justice.
calamum quassatum non conteret et linum fumigans non extinguet in veritate educet iudicium
4 He will not grow weak or discouraged before He has established justice on the earth. In His law the islands will put their hope.”
non erit tristis neque turbulentus donec ponat in terra iudicium et legem eius insulae expectabunt
5 This is what God the LORD says— He who created the heavens and stretched them out, who spread out the earth and its offspring, who gives breath to the people on it and life to those who walk in it:
haec dicit Dominus Deus creans caelos et extendens eos firmans terram et quae germinant ex ea dans flatum populo qui est super eam et spiritum calcantibus eam
6 “I, the LORD, have called you for a righteous purpose, and I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and appoint you to be a covenant for the people and a light to the nations,
ego Dominus vocavi te in iustitia et adprehendi manum tuam et servavi et dedi te in foedus populi in lucem gentium
7 to open the eyes of the blind, to bring prisoners out of the dungeon and those sitting in darkness out from the prison house.
ut aperires oculos caecorum et educeres de conclusione vinctum de domo carceris sedentes in tenebris
8 I am the LORD; that is My name! I will not yield My glory to another or My praise to idols.
ego Dominus hoc est nomen meum gloriam meam alteri non dabo et laudem meam sculptilibus
9 Behold, the former things have happened, and now I declare new things. Before they spring forth I proclaim them to you.”
quae prima fuerant ecce venerunt nova quoque ego adnuntio antequam oriantur audita vobis faciam
10 Sing to the LORD a new song— His praise from the ends of the earth— you who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, you islands, and all who dwell in them.
cantate Domino canticum novum laus eius ab extremis terrae qui descenditis in mare et plenitudo eius insulae et habitatores earum
11 Let the desert and its cities raise their voices; let the villages of Kedar cry aloud. Let the people of Sela sing for joy; let them cry out from the mountaintops.
sublevetur desertum et civitates eius in domibus habitabit Cedar laudate habitatores Petrae de vertice montium clamabunt
12 Let them give glory to the LORD and declare His praise in the islands.
ponent Domino gloriam et laudem eius in insulis nuntiabunt
13 The LORD goes forth like a mighty one; He stirs up His zeal like a warrior. He shouts; yes, He roars in triumph over His enemies:
Dominus sicut fortis egredietur sicut vir proeliator suscitabit zelum vociferabitur et clamabit super inimicos suos confortabitur
14 “I have kept silent from ages past; I have remained quiet and restrained. But now I will groan like a woman in labor; I will at once gasp and pant.
tacui semper silui patiens fui sicut pariens loquar dissipabo et absorbebo simul
15 I will lay waste the mountains and hills and dry up all their vegetation. I will turn the rivers into dry land and drain the marshes.
desertos faciam montes et colles et omne gramen eorum exsiccabo et ponam flumina in insulas et stagna arefaciam
16 I will lead the blind by a way they did not know; I will guide them on unfamiliar paths. I will turn darkness into light before them and rough places into level ground. These things I will do for them, and I will not forsake them.
et ducam caecos in via quam nesciunt in semitis quas ignoraverunt ambulare eos faciam ponam tenebras coram eis in lucem et prava in recta haec verba feci eis et non dereliqui eos
17 But those who trust in idols and say to molten images, ‘You are our gods!’ will be turned back in utter shame.
conversi sunt retrorsum confundantur confusione qui confidunt in sculptili qui dicunt conflatili vos dii nostri
18 Listen, you deaf ones; look, you blind ones, that you may see!
surdi audite et caeci intuemini ad videndum
19 Who is blind but My servant, or deaf like the messenger I am sending? Who is blind like My covenant partner, or blind like the servant of the LORD?
quis caecus nisi servus meus et surdus nisi ad quem nuntios meos misi quis caecus nisi qui venundatus est quis caecus nisi servus Domini
20 Though seeing many things, you do not keep watch. Though your ears are open, you do not hear.”
qui vides multa nonne custodies qui apertas habes aures nonne audies
21 The LORD was pleased, for the sake of His righteousness, to magnify His law and make it glorious.
et Dominus voluit ut sanctificaret eum et magnificaret legem et extolleret
22 But this is a people plundered and looted, all trapped in caves or imprisoned in dungeons. They have become plunder with no one to rescue them, and loot with no one to say, “Send them back!”
ipse autem populus direptus et vastatus laqueus iuvenum omnes et in domibus carcerum absconditi sunt facti sunt in rapinam nec est qui eruat in direptionem et non est qui dicat redde
23 Who among you will pay attention to this? Who will listen and obey hereafter?
quis est in vobis qui audiat hoc adtendat et auscultet futura
24 Who gave Jacob up for spoil, and Israel to the plunderers? Was it not the LORD, against whom we have sinned? They were unwilling to walk in His ways, and they would not obey His law.
quis dedit in direptionem Iacob et Israhel vastantibus nonne Dominus ipse cui peccavimus et noluerunt in viis eius ambulare et non audierunt legem eius
25 So He poured out on them His furious anger and the fierceness of battle. It enveloped them in flames, but they did not understand; it consumed them, but they did not take it to heart.
et effudit super eum indignationem furoris sui et forte bellum et conbusit eum in circuitu et non cognovit et succendit eum et non intellexit
