Isaiah 26
1 In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Iudah, We haue a strong citie: saluation shall God set for walles and bulwarkes.
in die illa cantabitur canticum istud in terra Iuda urbs fortitudinis nostrae salvator ponetur in ea murus et antemurale
2 Open ye the gates that the righteous nation, which keepeth the trueth, may enter in.
aperite portas et ingrediatur gens iusta custodiens veritatem
3 By an assured purpose wilt thou preserue perfite peace, because they trusted in thee.
vetus error abiit servabis pacem pacem quia in te speravimus
4 Trust in the Lord for euer: for in the Lord God is strength for euermore.
sperastis in Domino in saeculis aeternis in Domino Deo forti in perpetuum
5 For hee will bring downe them that dwell on hie: the hie citie he will abase: euen vnto the ground wil he cast it downe, and bring it vnto dust.
quia incurvabit habitantes in excelso civitatem sublimem humiliabit humiliabit eam usque ad terram detrahet eam usque ad pulverem
6 The foote shall treade it downe, euen the feete of the poore, and the steppes of the needie.
conculcabit eam pes pedes pauperis gressus egenorum
7 The way of the iust is righteousnesse: thou wilt make equall the righteous path of the iust.
semita iusti recta est rectus callis iusti ad ambulandum
8 Also we, O Lord, haue waited for thee in the way of thy iudgemets: the desire of our soule is to thy Name, and to the remembrance of thee.
et in semita iudiciorum tuorum Domine sustinuimus te nomen tuum et memoriale tuum in desiderio animae
9 With my soule haue I desired thee in the night, and with my spirit within mee will I seeke thee in the morning: for seeing thy iudgements are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world shall learne righteousnesse.
anima mea desideravit te in nocte sed et spiritu meo in praecordiis meis de mane vigilabo ad te cum feceris iudicia tua in terra iustitiam discent habitatores orbis
10 Let mercie bee shewed to the wicked, yet hee will not learne righteousnesse: in the land of vprightnesse will he do wickedly, and will not beholde the maiestie of the Lord.
misereamur impio et non discet iustitiam in terra sanctorum inique gessit et non videbit gloriam Domini
11 O Lord, they will not beholde thine hie hande: but they shall see it, and bee confounded with the zeale of the people, and the fire of thine enemies shall deuoure them.
Domine exaltetur manus tua et non videant videant et confundantur zelantes populi et ignis hostes tuos devoret
12 Lord, vnto vs thou wilt ordeine peace: for thou also hast wrought all our workes for vs.
Domine dabis pacem nobis omnia enim opera nostra operatus es nobis
13 O Lord our God, other lords beside thee, haue ruled vs, but we will remember thee onely, and thy Name.
Domine Deus noster possederunt nos domini absque te tantum in te recordemur nominis tui
14 The dead shall not liue, neither shall the dead arise, because thou hast visited and scattered them, and destroyed all their memorie.
morientes non vivant gigantes non resurgant propterea visitasti et contrivisti eos et perdidisti omnem memoriam eorum
15 Thou hast increased the nation, O Lord: thou hast increased the nation: thou art made glorious: thou hast enlarged all the coastes of the earth.
indulsisti genti Domine indulsisti genti numquid glorificatus es elongasti omnes terminos terrae
16 Lord, in trouble haue they visited thee: they powred out a prayer when thy chastening was vpon them.
Domine in angustia requisierunt te in tribulatione murmuris doctrina tua eis
17 Like as a woman with childe, that draweth neere to the trauaile, is in sorow, and cryeth in her paines, so haue we bene in thy sight, O Lord.
sicut quae concipit cum adpropinquaverit ad partum dolens clamat in doloribus suis sic facti sumus a facie tua Domine
18 We haue coceiued, we haue borne in paine, as though we should haue brought forth winde: there was no helpe in the earth, neither did the inhabitants of the world fall.
concepimus et quasi parturivimus et peperimus spiritum salutes non fecimus in terra ideo non ceciderunt habitatores terrae
19 Thy dead men shall liue: euen with my body shall they rise. Awake, and sing, ye that dwel in dust: for thy dewe is as the dew of herbes, and the earth shall cast out the dead.
vivent mortui tui interfecti mei resurgent expergiscimini et laudate qui habitatis in pulvere quia ros lucis ros tuus et terram gigantum detrahes in ruinam
20 Come, my people: enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doores after thee: hide thy selfe for a very litle while, vntill the indignation passe ouer.
vade populus meus intra in cubicula tua claude ostia tua super te abscondere modicum ad momentum donec pertranseat indignatio
21 For lo, the Lord commeth out of his place, to visite the iniquitie of the inhabitants of the earth vpon them: and the earth shall disclose her blood, and shall no more hide her slaine.
ecce enim Dominus egreditur de loco suo ut visitet iniquitatem habitatoris terrae contra eum et revelabit terra sanguinem suum et non operiet ultra interfectos suos
