< Isaiah 43 >

1 But nowe thus sayeth the Lord, that created thee, O Iaakob: and hee that formed thee, O Israel, Feare not: for I haue redeemed thee: I haue called thee by thy name, thou art mine.
Et nunc haec dicit Dominus creans te Iacob, et formans te Israel: Noli timere, quia redemi te, et vocavi te nomine tuo: meus es tu.
2 When thou passest through the waters, I wil be with thee, and through the floods, that they doe not ouerflowe thee. When thou walkest through the very fire, thou shalt not be burnt, neither shall the flame kindle vpon thee.
Cum transieris per aquas, tecum ero, et flumina non operient te: cum ambulaveris in igne, non combureris, et flamma non ardebit in te:
3 For I am the Lord thy God, the holy one of Israel, thy Sauiour: I gaue Egypt for thy ransome, Ethiopia, and Seba for thee.
Quia ego Dominus Deus tuus sanctus Israel salvator tuus, dedi propitiationem tuam Aegyptum, Aethopiam, et Saba pro te.
4 Because thou wast precious in my sight, and thou wast honourable, and I loued thee, therefore will I giue man for thee, and people for thy sake.
Ex quo honorabilis factus es in oculis meis, et gloriosus: ego dilexi te, et dabo homines pro te, et populos pro anima tua.
5 Feare not, for I am with thee: I will bring thy seede from the East, and gather thee from the West.
Noli timere, quia ego tecum sum: ab Oriente adducam semen tuum, et ab Occidente congregabo te.
6 I will say to the North, Giue: and to the South, Keepe not backe: bring my sonnes from farre, and my daughters from the ends of the earth.
Dicam Aquiloni: Da: et Austro: Noli prohibere: affer filios meos de longinquo, et filias meas ab extremis terrae.
7 Euery one shall be called by my Name: for I created him for my glorie, formed him and made him.
Et omnem, qui invocat nomen meum, in gloriam meam creavi eum, formavi eum, et feci eum.
8 I will bring foorth the blinde people, and they shall haue eyes, and the deafe, and they shall haue eares.
Educ foras populum caecum, et oculos habentem: surdum, et aures ei sunt.
9 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this and shewe vs former things? let them bring foorth their witnesses, that they may be iustified: but let them heare, and say, It is truth.
Omnes gentes congregatae sunt simul, et collectae sunt tribus: quis in vobis annunciet istud, et quae prima sunt audire nos faciet? dent testes eorum, iustificentur, et audiant, et dicant: Vere.
10 You are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my seruant, whom I haue chosen: therefore yee shall knowe and beleeue me and yee shall vnderstand that I am: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
Vos testes mei, dicit Dominus, et servus meus, quem elegi: ut sciatis, et credatis mihi, et intelligatis quia ego ipse sum. Ante me non est formatus Deus, et post me non erit.
11 I, euen I am the Lord, and beside me there is no Sauiour.
Ego sum, ego sum Dominus, et non est absque me salvator.
12 I haue declared, and I haue saued, and I haue shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore you are my witnesses, sayeth the Lord, that I am God.
Ego annunciavi, et salvavi: auditum feci, et non fuit in vobis alienus: vos testes mei, dicit Dominus, et ego Deus.
13 Yea, before the day was, I am, and there is none that can deliuer out of mine hand: I will doe it, and who shall let it?
Et ab initio ego ipse, et non est qui de manu mea eruat: operabor, et quis avertet illud?
14 Thus sayeth the Lord your redeemer, the holy one of Israel, For your sake I haue sent to Babel, and brought it downe: they are all fugitiues, and the Chaldeans crie in the shippes.
Haec dicit Dominus redemptor vester, sanctus Israel: Propter vos misi in Babylonem, et detraxi vectes universos, et Chaldaeos in navibus suis gloriantes.
15 I am the Lord your holy one, the creator of Israel, your King.
Ego Dominus sanctus vester, creans Israel rex vester.
16 Thus sayeth the Lord which maketh a way in the Sea, and a path in the mighty waters.
Haec dicit Dominus, qui dedit in mari viam, et in aquis torrentibus semitam.
17 When hee bringeth out the charet and horse, the armie and the power lie together, and shall not rise: they are extinct, and quenched as towe.
Qui eduxit quadrigam et equum: agmen et robustum, simul obdormierunt, nec resurgent: contriti sunt quasi linum, et extincti sunt.
18 Remember yee not the former things, neither regard the things of olde.
Ne memineritis priorum, et antiqua ne intueamini.
19 Behold, I do a new thing: now shall it come foorth: shall you not knowe it? I wil euen make a way in the desert, and floods in the wildernesse.
Ecce ego facio nova, et nunc orientur, utique cognoscetis ea: ponam in deserto viam, et in invio flumina.
20 The wilde beastes shall honour mee, the dragons and the ostriches, because I gaue water in the desert, and floods in the wildernesse to giue drinke to my people, euen to mine elect.
Glorificabit me bestia agri, dracones et struthiones: quia dedi in deserto aquas, flumina in invio, ut darem potum populo meo, electo meo.
21 This people haue I formed for my selfe: they shall shewe foorth my praise.
Populum istum formavi mihi, laudem meam narrabit.
22 And thou hast not called vpon mee, O Iaakob, but thou hast wearied me, O Israel.
Non me invocasti Iacob, nec laborasti in me Israel.
23 Thou hast not brought me the sheepe of thy burnt offrings, neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I haue not caused thee to serue with an offring, nor wearied thee with incense.
Non obtulisti mihi arietem holocausti tui, et victimis tuis non glorificasti me: non te servire feci in oblatione, nec laborem tibi praebui in thure.
24 Thou boughtest mee no sweete sauour with money, neither hast thou made mee drunke with the fatte of thy sacrifices, but thou hast made mee to serue with thy sinnes, and wearied mee with thine iniquities.
Non emisti mihi argento calamum, et adipe victimarum tuarum non inebriasti me. Verumtamen servire me fecisti in peccatis tuis, praebuisti mihi laborem in iniquitatibus tuis.
25 I, euen I am he that putteth away thine iniquities for mine owne sake, and will not remember thy sinnes.
Ego sum, ego sum ipse qui deleo iniquitates tuas propter me, et peccatorum tuorum non recordabor.
26 Put me in remembrance: let vs be iudged together: count thou that thou maist be iustified.
Reduc me in memoriam, et iudicemur simul: narra si quid habes ut iustificeris.
27 Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers haue transgressed against me.
Pater tuus primus peccavit, et interpretes tui praevaricati sunt in me.
28 Therefore I haue prophaned the rulers of the Sanctuarie, and haue made Iaakob a curse, and Israel a reproche.
Et contaminavi principes sanctos, dedi ad internecionem Iacob, et Israel in blasphemiam.
