Isaiah 1
1 The vision of Isaiah the son of Amos, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
visio Isaiae filii Amos quam vidit super Iudam et Hierusalem in diebus Oziae Ioatham Ahaz Ezechiae regum Iuda
2 Hear, [ye] heavens, and give ear, [thou] earth! for Jehovah hath spoken: I have nourished and brought up children; and they have rebelled against me.
audite caeli et auribus percipe terra quoniam Dominus locutus est filios enutrivi et exaltavi ipsi autem spreverunt me
3 The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib; Israel doth not know, my people hath no intelligence.
cognovit bos possessorem suum et asinus praesepe domini sui Israhel non cognovit populus meus non intellexit
4 Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that corrupt themselves! They have forsaken Jehovah; they have despised the Holy One of Israel; they are turned away backward.
vae genti peccatrici populo gravi iniquitate semini nequam filiis sceleratis dereliquerunt Dominum blasphemaverunt Sanctum Israhel abalienati sunt retrorsum
5 Why should ye be smitten any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
super quo percutiam vos ultra addentes praevaricationem omne caput languidum et omne cor maerens
6 From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in him; wounds, and weals, and open sores: they have not been dressed, nor bound up, nor mollified with oil.
a planta pedis usque ad verticem non est in eo sanitas vulnus et livor et plaga tumens non est circumligata nec curata medicamine neque fota oleo
7 Your country is desolate; your cities are burned with fire; your land, strangers eat it up in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
terra vestra deserta civitates vestrae succensae igni regionem vestram coram vobis alieni devorant et desolabitur sicut in vastitate hostili
8 And the daughter of Zion is left, as a booth in a vineyard, as a night-lodge in a cucumber-garden, as a besieged city.
et derelinquetur filia Sion ut umbraculum in vinea et sicut tugurium in cucumerario sicut civitas quae vastatur
9 Unless Jehovah of hosts had left us a very small residue, we should have been as Sodom, we should have been like unto Gomorrah.
nisi Dominus exercituum reliquisset nobis semen quasi Sodoma fuissemus et quasi Gomorra similes essemus
10 Hear the word of Jehovah, rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, people of Gomorrah!
audite verbum Domini principes Sodomorum percipite auribus legem Dei nostri populus Gomorrae
11 To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith Jehovah. I am sated with burnt-offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and in the blood of bullocks, and of lambs, and of he-goats I take no pleasure.
quo mihi multitudinem victimarum vestrarum dicit Dominus plenus sum holocausta arietum et adipem pinguium et sanguinem vitulorum et agnorum et hircorum nolui
12 When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this from your hand — to tread my courts?
cum veneritis ante conspectum meum quis quaesivit haec de manibus vestris ut ambularetis in atriis meis
13 Bring no more vain oblations! Incense is an abomination unto me, — new moon and sabbath, the calling of convocations — wickedness and the solemn meeting I cannot bear.
ne adferatis ultra sacrificium frustra incensum abominatio est mihi neomeniam et sabbatum et festivitates alias non feram iniqui sunt coetus vestri
14 Your new moons and your set feasts my soul hateth: they are a burden to me; I am wearied of bearing [them].
kalendas vestras et sollemnitates vestras odivit anima mea facta sunt mihi molesta laboravi sustinens
15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you; yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
et cum extenderitis manus vestras avertam oculos meos a vobis et cum multiplicaveritis orationem non audiam manus vestrae sanguine plenae sunt
16 Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; — cease to do evil,
lavamini mundi estote auferte malum cogitationum vestrarum ab oculis meis quiescite agere perverse
17 learn to do well: seek judgment, gladden the oppressed, do justice to the fatherless, plead for the widow.
discite benefacere quaerite iudicium subvenite oppresso iudicate pupillo defendite viduam
18 Come now, let us reason together, saith Jehovah: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
et venite et arguite me dicit Dominus si fuerint peccata vestra ut coccinum quasi nix dealbabuntur et si fuerint rubra quasi vermiculus velut lana erunt
19 If ye be willing and hearken, ye shall eat the good of the land;
si volueritis et audieritis bona terrae comedetis
20 but if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of Jehovah hath spoken.
quod si nolueritis et me provocaveritis ad iracundiam gladius devorabit vos quia os Domini locutum est
21 How is the faithful city become a harlot! It was full of judgment; righteousness used to lodge in it, but now murderers.
quomodo facta est meretrix civitas fidelis plena iudicii iustitia habitavit in ea nunc autem homicidae
22 Thy silver is become dross, thy wine is mixed with water:
argentum tuum versum est in scoriam vinum tuum mixtum est aqua
23 thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves; every one loveth presents, and hunteth after rewards; they judge not the fatherless, and the cause of the widow cometh not unto them.
principes tui infideles socii furum omnes diligunt munera sequuntur retributiones pupillo non iudicant et causa viduae non ingreditur ad eos
24 Therefore saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel: Ah! I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies.
propter hoc ait Dominus exercituum Fortis Israhel heu consolabor super hostibus meis et vindicabor de inimicis meis
25 And I will turn my hand upon thee, and will thoroughly purge away thy dross, and take away all thine alloy;
et convertam manum meam ad te et excoquam ad purum scoriam tuam et auferam omne stagnum tuum
26 and I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning. Afterwards thou shalt be called, Town of righteousness, Faithful city.
et restituam iudices tuos ut fuerunt prius et consiliarios tuos sicut antiquitus post haec vocaberis civitas iusti urbs fidelis
27 Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and they that return of her with righteousness.
Sion in iudicio redimetur et reducent eam in iustitia
28 But the ruin of the transgressors and of the sinners [shall be] together; and they that forsake Jehovah shall be consumed.
et conteret scelestos et peccatores simul et qui dereliquerunt Dominum consumentur
29 For they shall be ashamed of the terebinths that ye have desired, and ye shall blush for the gardens that ye have chosen.
confundentur enim ab idolis quibus sacrificaverunt et erubescetis super hortis quos elegeratis
30 For ye shall be as a terebinth whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water.
cum fueritis velut quercus defluentibus foliis et velut hortus absque aqua
31 And the strong shall be for tow, and his work a spark; and they shall both burn together, and there shall be none to quench [them].
et erit fortitudo vestra ut favilla stuppae et opus vestrum quasi scintilla et succendetur utrumque simul et non erit qui extinguat
