Isaiah 13
1 The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw.
onus Babylonis quod vidit Isaias filius Amos
2 Lift up a banner upon a bare mountain, raise the voice unto them, shake the hand, that they may enter the gates of the nobles.
super montem caligosum levate signum exaltate vocem levate manum et ingrediantur portas duces
3 I have commanded my hallowed ones, I have also called my mighty men for mine anger, them that rejoice in my highness.
ego mandavi sanctificatis meis et vocavi fortes meos in ira mea exultantes in gloria mea
4 The noise of a multitude on the mountains, as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations assembled together: Jehovah of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
vox multitudinis in montibus quasi populorum frequentium vox sonitus regum gentium congregatarum Dominus exercituum praecepit militiae belli
5 They come from a far country, from the end of the heavens — Jehovah, and the weapons of his indignation — to destroy the whole land.
venientibus de terra procul a summitate caeli Dominus et vasa furoris eius ut disperdat omnem terram
6 Howl, for the day of Jehovah is at hand; it cometh as destruction from the Almighty.
ululate quia prope est dies Domini quasi vastitas a Domino veniet
7 Therefore shall all hands be feeble, and every heart of man shall melt,
propter hoc omnes manus dissolventur et omne cor hominis tabescet
8 and they shall be terrified: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them, they shall writhe as a woman that travaileth; they shall be amazed one at another, their faces shall be as flames.
et conteretur tortiones et dolores tenebunt quasi parturiens dolebunt unusquisque ad proximum suum stupebit facies conbustae vultus eorum
9 Behold, the day of Jehovah cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the earth desolate; and he will destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
ecce dies Domini venit crudelis et indignationis plenus et irae furorisque ad ponendam terram in solitudine et peccatores eius conterendos de ea
10 For the stars of the heavens and the constellations thereof shall not give their light; the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
quoniam stellae caeli et splendor earum non expandent lumen suum obtenebratus est sol in ortu suo et luna non splendebit in lumine suo
11 And I will punish the world for evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will make the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will bring low the haughtiness of the violent.
et visitabo super orbis mala et contra impios iniquitatem eorum et quiescere faciam superbiam infidelium et arrogantiam fortium humiliabo
12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold, even man than the gold of Ophir.
pretiosior erit vir auro et homo mundo obrizo
13 Therefore I will make the heavens to shake, and the earth shall be removed out of her place, at the wrath of Jehovah of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
super hoc caelum turbabo et movebitur terra de loco suo propter indignationem Domini exercituum et propter diem irae furoris eius
14 And it shall be as with a chased roe, and as with a flock that no man gathereth together; every one shall turn to his own people, and every one flee into his own land.
et erit quasi dammula fugiens et quasi ovis et non erit qui congreget unusquisque ad populum suum convertetur et singuli ad terram suam fugient
15 All that are found shall be thrust through; and every one that is in league [with them] shall fall by the sword.
omnis qui inventus fuerit occidetur et omnis qui supervenerit cadet in gladio
16 And their infants shall be dashed in pieces before their eyes, their houses shall be rifled, and their women ravished.
infantes eorum adlident in oculis eorum diripientur domus eorum et uxores eorum violabuntur
17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, who do not regard silver, and as for gold, they have no delight in it.
ecce ego suscitabo super eos Medos qui argentum non quaerant nec aurum velint
18 And [their] bows shall dash the young men to pieces, and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb: their eye shall not spare children.
sed sagittis parvulos interficiant et lactantibus uteri non misereantur et super filios non parcat oculus eorum
19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans' pride, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
et erit Babylon illa gloriosa in regnis inclita in superbia Chaldeorum sicut subvertit Deus Sodomam et Gomorram
20 It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in, even to generation and generation; nor shall Arabian pitch tent there, nor shepherds make fold there.
non habitabitur usque in finem et non fundabitur usque ad generationem et generationem nec ponet ibi tentoria Arabs nec pastores requiescent ibi
21 But beasts of the desert shall lie there, and their houses shall be full of owls; and ostriches shall dwell there, and wild goats shall dance there.
sed requiescent ibi bestiae et replebuntur domus eorum draconibus et habitabunt ibi strutiones et pilosi saltabunt ibi
22 And jackals shall cry to one another in their palaces, and wild dogs in the pleasant castles. And her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged.
et respondebunt ibi ululae in aedibus eius et sirenae in delubris voluptatis
