< Isaiah 32 >

1 Behold, a King shall reigne in iustice, and the princes shall rule in iudgement.
ecce in iustitia regnabit rex et principes in iudicio praeerunt
2 And that man shall bee as an hiding place from the winde, and as a refuge for the tempest: as riuers of water in a drie place, and as the shadowe of a great rocke in a weary land.
et erit vir sicut qui absconditur a vento et celat se a tempestate sicut rivi aquarum in siti et umbra petrae prominentis in terra deserta
3 The eyes of the seeing shall not be shut, and the eares of them that heare, shall hearken.
non caligabunt oculi videntium et aures audientium diligenter auscultabunt
4 And the heart of the foolish shall vnderstand knowledge, and the tongue of the stutters shalbe ready to speake distinctly.
et cor stultorum intelleget scientiam et lingua balborum velociter loquetur et plane
5 A nigard shall no more be called liberall, nor the churle riche.
non vocabitur ultra is qui insipiens est princeps neque fraudulentus appellabitur maior
6 But the nigarde will speake of nigardnesse, and his heart will worke iniquitie, and do wickedly, and speake falsely against the Lord, to make emptie the hungrie soule, and to cause the drinke of the thirstie to faile.
stultus enim fatua loquetur et cor eius faciet iniquitatem ut perficiat simulationem et loquatur ad Dominum fraudulenter et vacuefaciat animam esurientis et potum sitienti auferat
7 For the weapons of the churle are wicked: hee deuiseth wicked counsels, to vndoe the poore with lying words: and to speake against the poore in iudgement.
fraudulenti vasa pessima sunt ipse enim cogitationes concinnavit ad perdendos mites in sermone mendacii cum loqueretur pauper iudicium
8 But the liberall man will deuise of liberall things, and he will continue his liberalitie.
princeps vero ea quae digna sunt principe cogitavit et ipse super duces stabit
9 Rise vp, ye women that are at ease: heare my voyce, ye carelesse daughters: hearken to my wordes.
mulieres opulentae surgite et audite vocem meam filiae confidentes percipite auribus eloquium meum
10 Yee women, that are carelesse, shall be in feare aboue a yeere in dayes: for the vintage shall faile, and the gatherings shall come no more.
post dies et annum et vos conturbabimini confidentes consummata est enim vindemia collectio ultra non veniet
11 Yee women, that are at ease, be astonied: feare, O yee carelesse women: put off the clothes: make bare, and girde sackcloth vpon the loynes.
obstupescite opulentae conturbamini confidentes exuite vos et confundimini accingite lumbos vestros
12 Men shall lament for the teates, euen for the pleasant fieldes, and for the fruitefull vine.
super ubera plangite super regione desiderabili super vinea fertili
13 Vpon the lande of my people shall growe thornes and briers: yea, vpon all the houses of ioye in the citie of reioysing,
super humum populi mei spina et vepres ascendent quanto magis super omnes domos gaudii civitatis exultantis
14 Because the palace shalbe forsaken, and the noise of the citie shalbe left: the towre and fortresse shalbe dennes for euer, and the delite of wilde asses, and a pasture for flockes,
domus enim dimissa est multitudo urbis relicta est tenebrae et palpatio factae sunt super speluncas usque in aeternum gaudium onagrorum pascua gregum
15 Vntill the Spirit be powred vpon vs from aboue, and the wildernes become a fruitfull fielde, and the plenteous fielde be counted as a forest.
donec effundatur super nos spiritus de excelso et erit desertum in Chermel et Chermel in saltum reputabitur
16 And iudgement shall dwel in the desert, and iustice shall remaine in the fruitfull fielde.
et habitabit in solitudine iudicium et iustitia in Chermel sedebit
17 And the worke of iustice shall bee peace, euen the worke of iustice and quietnesse, and assurance for euer.
et erit opus iustitiae pax et cultus iustitiae silentium et securitas usque in sempiternum
18 And my people shall dwell in the tabernacle of peace, and in sure dwellings, and in safe resting places.
et sedebit populus meus in pulchritudine pacis et in tabernaculis fiduciae et in requie opulenta
19 When it haileth, it shall fall on the forest, and the citie shall be set in the lowe place.
grando autem in descensione saltus et humilitate humiliabitur civitas
20 Blessed are ye that sowe vpon all waters, and driue thither the feete of the oxe and the asse.
beati qui seminatis super omnes aquas inmittentes pedem bovis et asini
