Isaiah 52
1 Rise up, Rise up! Clothe yourself in strength, O Zion! Put on the garments of your glory, O Jerusalem, the city of the Holy One! For the uncircumcised and the unclean will no longer pass through you.
Consurge, consurge, induere fortitudine tua Sion, induere vestimentis gloriæ tuæ Ierusalem civitas sancti: quia non adiiciet ultra ut pertranseat per te incircumcisus et immundus.
2 Shake yourself from the dust! Arise and sit up, O Jerusalem! Loose the chains from your neck, O captive daughter of Zion!
Excutere de pulvere, consurge; sede Ierusalem: solve vincula colli tui captiva filia Sion.
3 For thus says the Lord: You were sold for nothing, and you will be redeemed without money.
Quia hæc dicit Dominus: Gratis venundati estis, et sine argento redimemini.
4 For thus says the Lord God: My people descended into Egypt, in the beginning, in order to sojourn there. But the Assyrian oppressed them, without any cause at all.
Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: In Ægyptum descendit populus meus in principio ut colonus esset ibi: et Assur absque ulla causa calumniatus est eum.
5 And now, what is left for me here, says the Lord? For my people have been taken away without cause. Their lords treat them unjustly, says the Lord. And my name is being continually blasphemed all day long.
Et nunc quid mihi est hic, dicit Dominus, quoniam ablatus est populus meus gratis? dominatores eius inique agunt, dicit Dominus, et iugiter tota die nomen meum blasphematur.
6 Because of this, my people will know my name, in that day. For it is I myself who is speaking. Behold, I am here.
Propter hoc sciet populus meus nomen meum in die illa: quia ego ipse qui loquebar, ecce adsum.
7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger and the preacher of peace! Announcing good and preaching peace, they are saying to Zion, “Your God will reign!”
Quam pulchri super montes pedes annunciantis et prædicantis pacem: annunciantis bonum, prædicantis salutem, dicentis Sion: Regnabit Deus tuus!
8 It is the voice of your watchmen. They have lifted up their voice. They will praise together. For they will see eye to eye, when the Lord converts Zion.
Vox speculatorum tuorum: levaverunt vocem, simul laudabunt: quia oculo ad oculum videbunt cum converterit Dominus Sion.
9 Be glad and rejoice together, O deserts of Jerusalem! For the Lord has consoled his people. He has redeemed Jerusalem.
Gaudete, et laudate simul deserta Ierusalem: quia consolatus est Dominus populum suum, redemit Ierusalem.
10 The Lord has prepared his holy arm, in the sight of all the Gentiles. And all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.
Paravit Dominus brachium sanctum suum in oculis omnium Gentium: et videbunt omnes fines terræ salutare Dei nostri.
11 Depart, depart, get out of here! Do not be willing to touch what is polluted. Go out from her midst! Be cleansed, you who bear the vessels of the Lord.
Recedite, recedite, exite inde, pollutum nolite tangere: exite de medio eius, mundamini qui fertis vasa Domini.
12 For you will not go out in a tumult, nor will you take flight in a hurry. For the Lord will precede you, and the God of Israel will gather you.
Quoniam non in tumultu exibitis, nec in fuga properabitis: præcedet enim vos Dominus, et congregabit vos Deus Israel.
13 Behold, my servant will understand; he will be exalted and lifted up, and he will be very sublime.
Ecce intelliget servus meus, exaltabitur, et elevabitur, et sublimis erit valde.
14 Just as they were stupefied over you, so will his countenance be without glory among men, and his appearance, among the sons of men.
Sicut obstupuerunt super te multi, sic inglorius erit inter viros aspectus eius, et forma eius inter filios hominum.
15 He will sprinkle many nations; kings will close their mouth because of him. And those to whom he was not described, have seen. And those who have not heard, have considered.
Iste asperget gentes multas, super ipsum continebunt reges os suum: quia quibus non est narratum de eo, viderunt: et qui non audierunt, contemplati sunt.
