Isaiah 50
1 This is what the LORD says: “Where is your mother’s certificate of divorce with which I sent her away? Or to which of My creditors did I sell you? Look, you were sold for your iniquities, and for your transgressions your mother was sent away.
haec dicit Dominus quis est hic liber repudii matris vestrae quo dimisi eam aut quis est creditor meus cui vendidi vos ecce in iniquitatibus vestris venditi estis et in sceleribus vestris dimisi matrem vestram
2 Why was no one there when I arrived? Why did no one answer when I called? Is My hand too short to redeem you? Or do I lack the strength to deliver you? Behold, My rebuke dries up the sea; I turn the rivers into a desert; the fish rot for lack of water and die of thirst.
quia veni et non erat vir vocavi et non erat qui audiret numquid adbreviata et parvula facta est manus mea ut non possim redimere aut non est in me virtus ad liberandum ecce in increpatione mea desertum faciam mare ponam flumina in siccum conputrescent pisces sine aqua et morientur in siti
3 I clothe the heavens in black and make sackcloth their covering.”
induam caelos tenebris et saccum ponam operimentum eorum
4 The Lord GOD has given Me the tongue of discipleship, to sustain the weary with a word. He awakens Me morning by morning; He awakens My ear to listen as a disciple.
Dominus dedit mihi linguam eruditam ut sciam sustentare eum qui lassus est verbo erigit mane mane erigit mihi aurem ut audiam quasi magistrum
5 The Lord GOD has opened My ears, and I have not been rebellious, nor have I turned back.
Dominus Deus aperuit mihi aurem ego autem non contradico retrorsum non abii
6 I offered My back to those who struck Me, and My cheeks to those who tore out My beard. I did not hide My face from scorn and spittle.
corpus meum dedi percutientibus et genas meas vellentibus faciem meam non averti ab increpantibus et conspuentibus
7 Because the Lord GOD helps Me, I have not been disgraced; therefore I have set My face like flint, and I know that I will not be put to shame.
Dominus Deus auxiliator meus ideo non sum confusus ideo posui faciem meam ut petram durissimam et scio quoniam non confundar
8 The One who vindicates Me is near. Who will dare to contend with Me? Let us confront each other! Who has a case against Me? Let him approach Me!
iuxta est qui iustificat me quis contradicet mihi stemus simul quis est adversarius meus accedat ad me
9 Surely the Lord GOD helps Me. Who is there to condemn Me? See, they will all wear out like a garment; the moths will devour them.
ecce Dominus Deus auxiliator meus quis est qui condemnet me ecce omnes quasi vestimentum conterentur tinea comedet eos
10 Who among you fears the LORD and obeys the voice of His Servant? Who among you walks in darkness and has no light? Let him trust in the name of the LORD; let him lean on his God.
quis ex vobis timens Dominum audiens vocem servi sui qui ambulavit in tenebris et non est lumen ei speret in nomine Domini et innitatur super Deum suum
11 Behold, all you who kindle a fire, who array yourselves with firebrands, walk in the light of your fire and of the firebrands you have lit! This is what you will receive from My hand: You will lie down in a place of torment.
ecce omnes vos accendentes ignem accincti flammis ambulate in lumine ignis vestri et in flammis quas succendistis de manu mea factum est hoc vobis in doloribus dormietis
