Isaiah 54
1 Exult, thou barren, that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and shout for joy, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith Jehovah.
Lauda sterilis quae non paris: decanta laudem, et hinni quae non pariebas: quoniam multi filii desertae magis quam eius, quae habet virum, dicit Dominus.
2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thy habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes.
Dilata locum tentorii tui, et pelles tabernaculorum tuorum extende, ne parcas: longos fac funiculos tuos, et clavos tuos consolida.
3 For thou shalt spread abroad on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall possess nations, and they shall make desolate cities to be inhabited.
Ad dexteram enim, et ad laevam penetrabis: et semen tuum Gentes hereditabit, et civitates desertas inhabitabit.
4 Fear not, for thou shalt not be ashamed; neither be thou confounded, for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.
Noli timere quia non confunderis, neque erubesces: non enim te pudebit, quia confusionis adolescentiae tuae oblivisceris, et opprobrii viduitatis tuae non recordaberis amplius.
5 For thy Maker is thy husband: Jehovah of hosts is his name, and thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: the God of the whole earth shall he be called.
Quia dominabitur tui qui fecit te, Dominus exercituum nomen eius: et redemptor tuus sanctus Israel, Deus omnis terrae vocabitur.
6 For Jehovah hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and as a wife of youth, that hath been refused, saith thy God.
Quia et mulierem derelictam et moerentem spiritu vocavit te Dominus, et uxorem ab adolescentia abiectam, dixit Deus tuus.
7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.
Ad punctum in modico dereliqui te, et in miserationibus magnis congregabo te.
8 In the outpouring of wrath have I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting loving-kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith Jehovah, thy Redeemer.
In momento indignationis abscondi faciem meam parumper a te, et in misericordia sempiterna misertus sum tui: dixit redemptor tuus Dominus.
9 For this is [as] the waters of Noah unto me, since I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth: so have I sworn that I will no more be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
Sicut in diebus Noe istud mihi est, cui iuravi ne inducerem aquas Noe ultra super terram: sic iuravi ut non irascar tibi, et non increpem te.
10 For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my loving-kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall my covenant of peace be removed, saith Jehovah, that hath mercy on thee.
Montes enim commovebuntur, et colles contremiscent: misericordia autem mea non recedet a te, et foedus pacis meae non movebitur: dixit miserator tuus Dominus.
11 [Thou] afflicted, tossed with tempest, not comforted! Behold, I will set thy stones in antimony, and lay thy foundations with sapphires;
Paupercula tempestate convulsa, absque ulla consolatione. Ecce ego sternam per ordinem lapides tuos, et fundabo te in sapphiris,
12 and I will make thy battlements of rubies, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of precious stones.
et ponam iaspidem propugnacula tua: et portas tuas in lapides sculptos, et omnes terminos tuos in lapides desiderabiles.
13 And all thy children [shall be] taught of Jehovah, and great shall be the peace of thy children.
Universos filios tuos doctos a Domino: et multitudinem pacis filiis tuis.
14 In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression, for thou shalt not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near thee.
Et in iustitia fundaberis: recede procul a calumnia, quia non timebis: et a pavore, quia non appropinquabit tibi.
15 Behold, they shall surely gather together, [but] not by me: whosoever gathereth together against thee shall fall because of thee.
Ecce accola veniet, qui non erat mecum, advena quondam tuus adiungetur tibi.
16 Behold, it is I who have created the smith that bloweth in the fire of coal, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the destroyer to ravage.
Ecce ego creavi fabrum sufflantem in igne prunas, et proferentem vas in opus suum, et ego creavi interfectorem ad disperdendum.
17 No weapon that is prepared against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that riseth against thee in judgment, thou shalt condemn. This is the inheritance of the servants of Jehovah; and their righteousness is of me, saith Jehovah.
Omne vas, quod fictum est contra te, non dirigetur: et omnem linguam resistentem tibi in iudicio, iudicabis. Haec est hereditas servorum Domini, et iustitia eorum apud me, dicit Dominus.
