Isaiah 7
1 Now in the days that Ahaz son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, was king of Judah, Rezin king of Aram marched up to wage war against Jerusalem. He was accompanied by Pekah son of Remaliah the king of Israel, but he could not overpower the city.
et factum est in diebus Ahaz filii Ioatham filii Oziae regis Iuda ascendit Rasin rex Syriae et Phacee filius Romeliae rex Israhel in Hierusalem ad proeliandum contra eam et non potuerunt debellare eam
2 When it was reported to the house of David that Aram was in league with Ephraim, the hearts of Ahaz and his people trembled like trees in the forest shaken by the wind.
et nuntiaverunt domui David dicentes requievit Syria super Ephraim et commotum est cor eius et cor populi eius sicut moventur ligna silvarum a facie venti
3 Then the LORD said to Isaiah, “Go out with your son Shear-jashub to meet Ahaz at the end of the aqueduct that feeds the upper pool, on the road to the Launderer’s Field,
et dixit Dominus ad Isaiam egredere in occursum Ahaz tu et qui derelictus est Iasub filius tuus ad extremum aquaeductus piscinae superioris in via agri Fullonis
4 and say to him: Calm down and be quiet. Do not be afraid or disheartened over these two smoldering stubs of firewood—over the fierce anger of Rezin and Aram and of the son of Remaliah.
et dices ad eum vide ut sileas noli timere et cor tuum ne formidet a duobus caudis titionum fumigantium istorum in ira furoris Rasin et Syriae et filii Romeliae
5 For Aram, along with Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, has plotted your ruin, saying:
eo quod consilium inierit contra te Syria malum Ephraim et filius Romeliae dicentes
6 ‘Let us invade Judah, terrorize it, and divide it among ourselves. Then we can install the son of Tabeal over it as king.’
ascendamus ad Iudam et suscitemus eum et avellamus eum ad nos et ponamus regem in medio eius filium Tabeel
7 But this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘It will not arise; it will not happen.
haec dicit Dominus Deus non stabit et non erit istud
8 For the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin. Within sixty-five years Ephraim will be shattered as a people.
sed caput Syriae Damascus et caput Damasci Rasin et adhuc sexaginta et quinque anni et desinet Ephraim esse populus
9 The head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah. If you do not stand firm in your faith, then you will not stand at all.’”
et caput Ephraim Samaria et caput Samariae filius Romeliae si non credideritis non permanebitis
10 Again the LORD spoke to Ahaz, saying,
et adiecit Dominus loqui ad Ahaz dicens
11 “Ask for a sign from the LORD your God, whether from the depths of Sheol or the heights of heaven.” (Sheol h7585)
pete tibi signum a Domino Deo tuo in profundum inferni sive in excelsum supra (Sheol h7585)
12 But Ahaz replied, “I will not ask; I will not test the LORD.”
et dixit Ahaz non petam et non temptabo Dominum
13 Then Isaiah said, “Hear now, O house of David! Is it not enough to try the patience of men? Will you try the patience of my God as well?
et dixit audite ergo domus David numquid parum vobis est molestos esse hominibus quia molesti estis et Deo meo
14 Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call Him Immanuel.
propter hoc dabit Dominus ipse vobis signum ecce virgo concipiet et pariet filium et vocabitis nomen eius Emmanuhel
15 By the time He knows enough to reject evil and choose good, He will be eating curds and honey.
butyrum et mel comedet ut sciat reprobare malum et eligere bonum
16 For before the boy knows enough to reject evil and choose good, the land of the two kings you dread will be laid waste.
quia antequam sciat puer reprobare malum et eligere bonum derelinquetur terra quam tu detestaris a facie duum regum suorum
17 The LORD will bring on you and on your people and on the house of your father a time unlike any since the day Ephraim separated from Judah—He will bring the king of Assyria.”
adducet Dominus super te et super populum tuum et super domum patris tui dies qui non venerunt a diebus separationis Ephraim a Iuda cum rege Assyriorum
18 On that day the LORD will whistle to the flies at the farthest streams of the Nile and to the bees in the land of Assyria.
et erit in die illa sibilabit Dominus muscae quae est in extremo fluminum Aegypti et api quae est in terra Assur
19 And they will all come and settle in the steep ravines and clefts of the rocks, in all the thornbushes and watering holes.
et venient et requiescent omnes in torrentibus vallium et cavernis petrarum et in omnibus frutectis et in universis foraminibus
20 On that day the Lord will use a razor hired from beyond the Euphrates —the king of Assyria—to shave your head and the hair of your legs, and to remove your beard as well.
in die illa radet Dominus in novacula conducta in his qui trans Flumen sunt in rege Assyriorum caput et pilos pedum et barbam universam
21 On that day a man will raise a young cow and two sheep,
et erit in die illa nutriet homo vaccam boum et duas oves
22 and from the abundance of milk they give, he will eat curds; for all who remain in the land will eat curds and honey.
et prae ubertate lactis comedet butyrum butyrum enim et mel manducabit omnis qui relictus fuerit in medio terrae
23 And on that day, in every place that had a thousand vines worth a thousand shekels of silver, only briers and thorns will be found.
et erit in die illa omnis locus ubi fuerint mille vites mille argenteis et in spinas et in vepres erunt
24 Men will go there with bow and arrow, for the land will be covered with briers and thorns.
cum sagittis et arcu ingredientur illuc vepres enim et spinae erunt in universa terra
25 For fear of the briers and thorns, you will no longer traverse the hills once tilled by the hoe; they will become places for oxen to graze and sheep to trample.
et omnes montes qui in sarculo sarientur non veniet illuc terror spinarum et veprium et erit in pascua bovis et in conculcationem pecoris
