Isaiah 66
1 Thus saith Jehovah: The heavens are my throne, and the earth is my footstool: what is the house that ye will build unto me? and what is the place of my rest?
Haec dicit Dominus: Caelum sedes mea, terra autem scabellum pedum meorum: quae est ista Domus, quam aedificabitis mihi? et quis est iste locus quietis meae?
2 Even all these things hath my hand made, and all these things have been, saith Jehovah. But to this man will I look: to the afflicted and contrite in spirit, and who trembleth at my word.
Omnia haec manus mea fecit, et facta sunt universa ista, dicit Dominus. ad quem autem respiciam, nisi ad pauperculum, contritum spiritu, et trementem sermones meos?
3 He that slaughtereth an ox, smiteth a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, breaketh a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation, [it is as] swine's blood; he that presenteth a memorial of incense, [is as] he that blesseth an idol. As they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations,
Qui immolat bovem, quasi qui interficiat virum: qui mactat pecus, quasi qui excerebret canem: qui offert oblationem, quasi qui sanguinem suillum offerat: qui recordatur thuris, quasi qui benedicat idolo. Haec omnia elegerunt in viis suis, et in abominationibus suis anima eorum delectata est.
4 I also will choose their calamities, and will bring their fears upon them; because I called, and none answered, I spoke, and they did not hear, but did that which was evil in mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delight not.
Unde et ego eligam illusiones eorum: et quae timebant, adducam eis: quia vocavi, et non erat qui responderet: locutus sum, et non audierunt: feceruntque malum in oculis meis, et quae nolui elegerunt.
5 Hear the word of Jehovah, ye that tremble at his word: Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let Jehovah be glorified, and let us see your joy! but they shall be ashamed.
Audite verbum Domini, qui tremitis ad verbum eius: dixerunt fratres vestri odientes vos, et abiicientes propter nomen meum: glorificetur Dominus, et videbimus in laetitia vestra: ipsi autem confundentur.
6 A voice of tumult from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of Jehovah that rendereth recompence to his enemies!
Vox populi de civitate, vox de templo, vox Domini reddentis retributionem inimicis suis.
7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man-child.
Antequam parturiret peperit: antequam veniret partus eius, peperit masculum.
8 Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Can a land be made to bring forth in one day? shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her sons.
Quis audivit umquam tale? et quis vidit huic simile? numquid parturiet terra in die una? aut parietur gens simul, quia parturivit et peperit Sion filios suos?
9 Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith Jehovah; I who cause to bring forth, shall I shut [the womb]? saith thy God.
Numquid ego, qui alios parere facio, ipse non pariam, dicit Dominus? si ego, qui generationem ceteris tribuo, sterilis ero, ait Dominus Deus tuus?
10 Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad for her, all ye that love her; rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn over her:
Laetamini cum Ierusalem, et exultate in ea, omnes qui diligitis eam: gaudete cum ea gaudio universi, qui lugetis super eam
11 because ye shall suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; because ye shall drink out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
ut sugatis, et repleamini ab ubere consolationis eius: ut mulgeatis, et deliciis affluatis ab omnimoda gloria eius.
12 For thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the nations like an overflowing torrent; and ye shall suck, ye shall be carried upon the side, and be dandled upon the knees.
Quia haec dicit Dominus: Ecce ego declinabo super eam quasi fluvium pacis, et quasi torrentem inundantem gloriam Gentium, quam sugetis: ad ubera portabimini, et super genua blandientur vobis.
13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
Quomodo si cui mater blandiatur, ita ego consolabor vos, et in Ierusalem consolabimini.
14 And ye shall see [this], and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like the grass; and the hand of Jehovah shall be known toward his servants, and he will have indignation toward his enemies.
Videbitis, et gaudebit cor vestrum, et ossa vestra quasi herba germinabunt, et cognoscetur manus Domini servis eius, et indignabitur inimicis suis.
15 For behold, Jehovah will come with fire, and his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
Quia ecce Dominus in igne veniet, et quasi turbo quadrigae eius: reddere in indignatione furorem suum, et increpationem suam in flamma ignis:
16 For by fire and by his sword will Jehovah enter into judgment with all flesh: and the slain of Jehovah shall be many.
quia in igne Dominus diiudicabit, et in gladio suo ad omnem carnem, et multiplicabuntur interfecti a Domino,
17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one in the midst; that eat swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall perish together, saith Jehovah.
qui sanctificabantur, et mundos se putabant in hortis post ianuam intrinsecus, qui comedebant carnem suillam, et abominationem et murem: simul consumentur, dicit Dominus.
18 And I, — their works and their thoughts [are before me]. ...[The time] cometh for the gathering of all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.
Ego autem opera eorum, et cogitationes eorum: venio ut congregem cum omnibus gentibus et linguis: et venient et videbunt gloriam meam.
19 And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow; to Tubal and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory: and they shall declare my glory among the nations.
Et ponam in eis signum, et mittam ex eis, qui salvati fuerint, ad Gentes in mare, in Africam, et Lydiam tendentes sagittam: in Italiam et Graeciam, ad insulas longe, ad eos, qui non audierunt de me, et non viderunt gloriam meam. Et annunciabunt gloriam meam Gentibus,
20 And they shall bring all your brethren out of all the nations as an oblation unto Jehovah, upon horses, and in chariots, and in covered waggons, and upon mules, and upon dromedaries, to my holy mountain, to Jerusalem, saith Jehovah, as the children of Israel bring an oblation in a clean vessel into the house of Jehovah.
et adducent omnes fratres vestros de cunctis Gentibus donum Domino in equis, et in quadrigis, et in lecticis, et in mulis, et in carrucis, ad montem sanctum meum Ierusalem, dicit Dominus, quomodo si inferant filii Israel munus in vase mundo in domum Domini.
21 And I will also take of them for priests [and] for Levites, saith Jehovah.
Et assumam ex eis in sacerdotes, et levitas, dicit Dominus:
22 For as the new heavens and the new earth which I will make shall remain before me, saith Jehovah, so shall your seed and your name remain.
Quia sicut caeli novi, et terra nova, quae ego facio stare coram me, dicit Dominus: sic stabit semen vestrum, et nomen vestrum.
23 And it shall come to pass from new moon to new moon, and from sabbath to sabbath, all flesh shall come to worship before me, saith Jehovah.
Et erit mensis ex mense, et sabbatum ex sabbato: veniet omnis caro ut adoret coram facie mea, dicit Dominus.
24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorrence unto all flesh.
Et egredientur, et videbunt cadavera virorum, qui praevaricati sunt in me: vermis eorum non morietur, et ignis eorum non extinguetur: et erunt usque ad satietatem visionis omni carni.
