< Esias 16 >
1 I will send as it were reptiles on the land: is [not] the mount of the daughter of Sion a desolate rock?
emitte agnum dominatorem terrae de Petra deserti ad montem filiae Sion
2 For you shall be as a young bird taken away from a bird that has flown: [even] you shall be [so], daughter of Moab: and then do you, O Arnon,
et erit sicut avis fugiens et pulli de nido avolantes sic erunt filiae Moab in transcensu Arnon
3 take farther counsel, and continually make you a shelter from grief: they flee in darkness at mid-day; they are amazed; be not you led captive.
ini consilium coge concilium pone quasi noctem umbram tuam in meridie absconde fugientes et vagos ne prodas
4 The fugitives of Moab shall sojourn with you; they shall be to you a shelter from the face of the pursuer: for your alliance has been taken away, and the oppressing ruler has perished from off the earth.
habitabunt apud te profugi mei Moab esto latibulum eorum a facie vastatoris finitus est enim pulvis consummatus est miser defecit qui conculcabat terram
5 And a throne shall be established with mercy; and one shall sit upon it with truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and earnestly seeking judgements, and hasting righteousness.
et praeparabitur in misericordia solium et sedebit super eum in veritate in tabernaculo David iudicans et quaerens iudicium et velociter reddens quod iustum est
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud. I have cut off his pride: your prophecy shall not be thus, [no] not thus.
audivimus superbiam Moab superbus est valde superbia eius et arrogantia eius et indignatio eius plus quam fortitudo eius
7 Moab shall howl; for all shall howl in the land of Moab: but you shall care for them that dwell in Seth, and you shall not be ashamed.
idcirco ululabit Moab ad Moab universus ululabit his qui laetantur super muro cocti lateris loquimini plagas suas
8 The plains of Esebon shall mourn, the vine of Sebama: swallowing up the nations, trample you her vines, even to Jazer: you shall not come together; wander you in the desert: they that were sent are deserted, for they have gone over to the sea.
quoniam suburbana Esebon deserta sunt et vinea Sabama domini gentium exciderunt flagella eius usque ad Iazer pervenerunt erraverunt in deserto propagines eius relictae sunt transierunt mare
9 Therefore will I weep as with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sebama; Esebon and Eleale have cast down your trees; for I will trample on your harvest and on your vintages, and all [your plants] shall fall.
super hoc plorabo in fletu Iazer vineam Sabama inebriabo te lacrima mea Esebon et Eleale quoniam super vindemiam tuam et super messem tuam vox calcantium inruit
10 And gladness and rejoicing shall be taken away from the vineyards; and they shall not at all tread wine into the vats; for [the vintage] has ceased.
et auferetur laetitia et exultatio de Carmelo et in vineis non exultabit neque iubilabit vinum in torculari non calcabit qui calcare consueverat vocem calcantium abstuli
11 Therefore my belly shall sound as a harp for Moab, and you have repaired my inward parts as a wall.
super hoc venter meus ad Moab quasi cithara sonabit et viscera mea ad murum cocti lateris
12 And it shall be to your shame, (for Moab is wearied at the altars, ) that he shall go in to the idols thereof to pray, but they shall not be at all able to deliver him.
et erit cum apparuerit quod laboravit Moab super excelsis suis ingredietur ad sancta sua ut obsecret et non valebit
13 This is the word which the Lord spoke against Moab, when he spoke.
hoc verbum quod locutus est Dominus ad Moab ex tunc
14 And now I say, in three years, of the years of an hireling, the glory of Moab shall be dishonoured [with] all his great wealth; and he shall be left few in number, and not honoured.
et nunc locutus est Dominus dicens in tribus annis quasi anni mercennarii auferetur gloria Moab super omni populo multo et relinquetur parvus et modicus nequaquam multus
