Isaiah 7

1 Now it came about in the days of Ahaz, the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin, the king of Aram, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah, the king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war against it, but were not able to overcome it.

Et factum est in diebus Achaz filii Ioathan, filii Oziae regis Iuda, ascendit Rasin rex Syriae, et Phacee filius Romeliae rex Israel, in Ierusalem, ad praeliandum contra eam: et non potuerunt debellare eam.

2 And word came to the family of David that Aram had put up its tents in Ephraim. And the king's heart, and the hearts of his people, were moved, like the trees of the wood shaking in the wind.

Et nunciaverunt 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 now, you and Shear-jashub, your son, and you will come across Ahaz at the end of the stream flowing from the higher pool, in the highway of the washerman's field;

Et dixit Dominus ad Isaiam: Egredere in occursum Achaz tu, et qui derelictus est Iasub filius tuus, ad extremum aquaeductus piscinae superioris in via Agri fullonis.

4 And say to him, Take care and be quiet; have no fear, and do not let your heart be feeble, because of these two ends of smoking fire-wood, because of the bitter wrath 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 duabus caudis titionum fumigantium istorum in ira furoris Rasin regis Syriae, et filii Romeliae:

5 Because Aram has made evil designs against you, saying,

eo quod consilium inierit contra te Syria in malum Ephraim, et filius Romeliae, dicentes:

6 Let us go up against Judah, troubling her, and forcing our way into her, and let us put up a king in her, even the son of Tabeel:

Ascendamus ad Iudam, et suscitemus eum, et avellamus eum ad nos, et ponamus regem in medio eius filium Tabeel.

7 This is the word of the Lord God: This design will not come about or be effected.

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 (and in sixty-five years from now Ephraim will be broken, and will no longer be a people):

sed caput Syriae Damascus, et caput Damasci Rasin: et adhuc sexaginta et quinque anni, et desinet Ephraim esse populus:

9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If you will not have faith, your kingdom will be broken.

et caput Ephraim Samaria, et caput Samariae filius Romeliae. Si non credideritis, non permanebitis.

10 And Isaiah said again to Ahaz,

Et adiecit Dominus loqui ad Achaz, dicens:

11 Make a request to the Lord your God for a sign, a sign in the deep places of the underworld, or in the high heavens. (Sheol h7585)

Pete tibi signum a Domino Deo tuo in profundum inferni, sive in excelsum supra. (Sheol h7585)

12 But Ahaz said, I will not put the Lord to the test by making such a request.

Et dixit Achaz: Non petam, et non tentabo Dominum.

13 And he said, Give ear now, O family of David: is it not enough that you are driving men to disgust? will you do the same to my God?

Et dixit: Audite ergo domus David: Numquid parum vobis est, molestos esse hominibus, quia molesti estis et Deo meo?

14 For this cause the Lord himself will give you a sign; a young woman is now with child, and she will give birth to a son, and she will give him the name Immanuel.

Propter hoc dabit Dominus ipse vobis signum. Ecce virgo concipiet, et pariet filium, et vocabitur nomen eius Emmanuel.

15 Butter and honey will be his food, when he is old enough to make a decision between evil and good.

Butyrum et mel comedet, ut sciat reprobare malum, et eligere bonum.

16 For before the child is old enough to make a decision between evil and good, the land whose two kings you are now fearing will have become waste.

Quia antequam sciat puer reprobare malum, et eligere bonum, derelinquetur terra, quam tu detestaris a facie duorum regum suorum.

17 The Lord is about to send on you, and on your people, and on your father's house, such a time of trouble as there has not been from the days of the separating of Ephraim from Judah; even the coming of 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 And it will be in that day that the Lord will make a piping sound for the fly which is in the end of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee which is 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 come, covering all the waste valleys, and the holes of the rocks, and the thorns, and all the watering-places.

et venient, et requiescent omnes in torrentibus vallium, et in cavernis petrarum, et in omnibus frutetis, et in universis foraminibus.

20 In that day will the Lord take away the hair of the head and of the feet, as well as the hair of the face, with a blade got for a price from the other side of the River; even with the king of Assyria.

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 And it will be in that day that a man will give food to a young cow and two sheep;

Et erit in die illa: Nutriet homo vaccam boum, et duas oves,

22 And they will give so much milk that he will be able to have butter for his food: for butter and honey will be the food of all who are still living in the land.

et prae ubertate lactis comedet butyrum: butyrum enim et mel manducabit omnis qui relictus fuerit in medio terrae.

23 And it will be in that day that in every place where before there were a thousand vines valued at a thousand shekels of silver, there will be nothing but blackberries and thorns.

Et erit in die illa: Omnis locus ubi fuerint mille vites, mille argenteis, in spinas et in vepres erunt.

24 Men will come there with bows and arrows, because all the land will be full of blackberries and thorns.

Cum sagittis et arcu ingredientur illuc: vepres enim et spinae erunt in universa terra.

25 And they will send out the oxen and the sheep on all the hills which before were worked with the spade, ... fear of blackberries and thorns.

Et omnes montes, qui in sarculo sarrientur, non veniet illuc terror spinarum et veprium. et erit in pascua bovis, et in conculcationem pecoris.
