Isaiah 65
1 “I revealed Myself to those who did not ask for Me; I was found by those who did not seek Me. To a nation that did not call My name, I said, ‘Here I am! Here I am!’
quaesierunt me qui ante non interrogabant invenerunt qui non quaesierunt me dixi ecce ego ecce ego ad gentem quae non vocabat nomen meum
2 All day long I have held out My hands to an obstinate people who walk in the wrong path, who follow their own imaginations,
expandi manus meas tota die ad populum incredulum qui graditur in via non bona post cogitationes suas
3 to a people who continually provoke Me to My face, sacrificing in the gardens and burning incense on altars of brick,
populus qui ad iracundiam provocat me ante faciem meam semper qui immolant in hortis et sacrificant super lateres
4 sitting among the graves, spending nights in secret places, eating the meat of pigs and polluted broth from their bowls.
qui habitant in sepulchris et in delubris idolorum dormiunt qui comedunt carnem suillam et ius profanum in vasis eorum
5 They say, ‘Keep to yourself; do not come near me, for I am holier than you!’ Such people are smoke in My nostrils, a fire that burns all day long.
qui dicunt recede a me non adpropinques mihi quia inmundus es isti fumus erunt in furore meo ignis ardens tota die
6 Behold, it is written before Me: I will not keep silent, but I will repay; I will pay it back into their laps,
ecce scriptum est coram me non tacebo sed reddam et retribuam in sinu eorum
7 both for your iniquities and for those of your fathers,” says the LORD. “Because they burned incense on the mountains and scorned Me on the hills, I will measure into their laps full payment for their former deeds.”
iniquitates vestras et iniquitates patrum vestrorum simul dicit Dominus qui sacrificaverunt super montes et super colles exprobraverunt mihi et remetiar opus eorum primum in sinu eorum
8 This is what the LORD says: “As the new wine is found in a cluster of grapes, and men say, ‘Do not destroy it, for it contains a blessing,’ so I will act on behalf of My servants; I will not destroy them all.
haec dicit Dominus quomodo si inveniatur granum in botro et dicatur ne dissipes illud quoniam benedictio est sic faciam propter servos meos ut non disperdam totum
9 And I will bring forth descendants from Jacob, and heirs from Judah; My elect will possess My mountains, and My servants will dwell there.
et educam de Iacob semen et de Iuda possidentem montes meos et hereditabunt eam electi mei et servi mei habitabunt ibi
10 Sharon will become a pasture for flocks, and the Valley of Achor a resting place for herds, for My people who seek Me.
et erunt campestria in caulas gregum et vallis Achor in cubile armentorum populo meo qui requisierunt me
11 But you who forsake the LORD, who forget My holy mountain, who set a table for Fortune and fill bowls of mixed wine for Destiny,
et vos qui dereliquistis Dominum qui obliti estis montem sanctum meum qui ponitis Fortunae mensam et libatis super eam
12 I will destine you for the sword, and you will all kneel down to be slaughtered, because I called and you did not answer, I spoke and you did not listen; you did evil in My sight and chose that in which I did not delight.”
numerabo vos in gladio et omnes in caede corruetis pro eo quod vocavi et non respondistis locutus sum et non audistis et faciebatis malum in oculis meis et quae nolui elegistis
13 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: “My servants will eat, but you will go hungry; My servants will drink, but you will go thirsty; My servants will rejoice, but you will be put to shame.
propter hoc haec dicit Dominus Deus ecce servi mei comedent et vos esurietis ecce servi mei bibent et vos sitietis
14 My servants will shout for joy with a glad heart, but you will cry out with a heavy heart and wail with a broken spirit.
ecce servi mei laetabuntur et vos confundemini ecce servi mei laudabunt prae exultatione cordis et vos clamabitis prae dolore cordis et prae contritione spiritus ululabitis
15 You will leave behind your name as a curse for My chosen ones, and the Lord GOD will slay you; but to His servants He will give another name.
et dimittetis nomen vestrum in iuramentum electis meis et interficiet te Dominus Deus et servos suos vocabit nomine alio
16 Whoever invokes a blessing in the land will do so by the God of truth, and whoever takes an oath in the land will swear by the God of truth. For the former troubles will be forgotten and hidden from My sight.
in quo qui benedictus est super terram benedicetur in Deo amen et qui iurat in terra iurabit in Deo amen quia oblivioni traditae sunt angustiae priores et quia absconditae sunt ab oculis nostris
17 For behold, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind.
ecce enim ego creo caelos novos et terram novam et non erunt in memoria priora et non ascendent super cor
18 But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; for I will create Jerusalem to be a joy and its people to be a delight.
sed gaudebitis et exultabitis usque in sempiternum in his quae ego creo quia ecce ego creo Hierusalem exultationem et populum eius gaudium
19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem and take delight in My people. The sounds of weeping and crying will no longer be heard in her.
et exultabo in Hierusalem et gaudebo in populo meo et non audietur in eo ultra vox fletus et vox clamoris
20 No longer will a nursing infant live but a few days, or an old man fail to live out his years. For the youth will die at a hundred years, and he who fails to reach a hundred will be considered accursed.
non erit ibi amplius infans dierum et senex qui non impleat dies suos quoniam puer centum annorum morietur et peccator centum annorum maledictus erit
21 They will build houses and dwell in them; they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
et aedificabunt domos et habitabunt et plantabunt vineas et comedent fructum earum
22 No longer will they build houses for others to inhabit, nor plant for others to eat. For as is the lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people, and My chosen ones will fully enjoy the work of their hands.
non aedificabunt et alius habitabit non plantabunt et alius comedet secundum dies enim ligni erunt dies populi mei et opera manuum eorum inveterabunt
23 They will not labor in vain or bear children doomed to disaster; for they will be a people blessed by the LORD— they and their descendants with them.
electis meis non laborabunt frustra neque generabunt in conturbatione quia semen benedictorum Domini est et nepotes eorum cum eis
24 Even before they call, I will answer, and while they are still speaking, I will hear.
eritque antequam clament ego exaudiam adhuc illis loquentibus ego audiam
25 The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, but the food of the serpent will be dust. They will neither harm nor destroy on all My holy mountain,”
lupus et agnus pascentur simul et leo et bos comedent paleas et serpenti pulvis panis eius non nocebunt neque occident in omni monte sancto meo dicit Dominus
