Isaiah 33
1 Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou [wast] not spoiled; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; [and] when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.
Vae qui praedaris, nonne et ipse praedaberis? et qui spernis, nonne et ipse sperneris? cum consummaveris depraedationem, depraedaberis: cum fatigatus desieris contemnere, contemneris.
2 O LORD, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.
Domine miserere nostri: te enim expectavimus: esto brachium nostrum in mane, et salus nostra in tempore tribulationis.
3 At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered.
A voce angeli fugerunt populi, et ab exaltatione tua dispersae sunt gentes.
4 And your spoil shall be gathered [like] the gathering of the caterpiller: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.
Et congregabuntur spolia vestra sicut colligitur bruchus, velut cum fossae plenae fuerint de eo.
5 The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.
Magnificatus est Dominus, quoniam habitavit in excelso: implevit Sion iudicio et iustitia.
6 And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, [and] strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD [is] his treasure.
Et erit fides in temporibus tuis: divitiae salutis sapientia et scientia: timor Domini ipse est thesaurus eius.
7 Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.
Ecce videntes clamabunt foris, angeli pacis amare flebunt.
8 The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.
Dissipatae sunt viae, cessavit transiens per semitam, irritum factum est pactum, proiecit civitates, non reputavit homines.
9 The earth mourneth [and] languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed [and] hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off [their fruits].
Luxit, et elanguit terra: confusus est Libanus, et obsorduit, et factus est Saron sicut desertum: et concussa est Basan, et Carmelus.
10 Now will I rise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.
Nunc consurgam, dicit Dominus: nunc exaltabor, nunc sublevabor.
11 Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, [as] fire, shall devour you.
Concipietis ardorem, parietis stipulam: spiritus vester ut ignis vorabit vos.
12 And the people shall be [as] the burnings of lime: [as] thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.
Et erunt populi quasi de incendio cinis, spinae congregatae igni comburentur.
13 Hear, ye [that are] far off, what I have done; and, ye [that are] near, acknowledge my might.
Audite qui longe estis, quae fecerim, et cognoscite vicini fortitudinem meam.
14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
Conterriti sunt in Sion peccatores, possedit tremor hypocritas. quis poterit habitare de vobis cum igne devorante? quis habitabit ex vobis cum ardoribus sempiternis?
15 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil;
Qui ambulat in iustitiis, et loquitur veritatem, qui proiicit avaritiam ex calumnia, et excutit manus suas ab omni munere, qui obturat aures suas ne audiat sanguinem, et claudit oculos suos ne videat malum.
16 He shall dwell on high: his place of defence [shall be] the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters [shall be] sure.
Iste in excelsis habitabit, munimenta saxorum sublimitas eius: panis ei datus est, aquae eius fideles sunt.
17 Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.
Regem in decore suo videbunt oculi eius, cernent terram de longe.
18 Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where [is] the scribe? where [is] the receiver? where [is] he that counted the towers?
Cor tuum meditabitur timorem: ubi est litteratus? ubi legis verba ponderans? ubi doctor parvulorum?
19 Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, [that thou canst] not understand.
Populum imprudentem non videbis, populum alti sermonis: ita ut non possis intelligere disertitudinem linguae eius, in quo nulla est sapientia.
20 Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle [that] shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.
Respice Sion civitatem sollemnitatis nostrae: oculi tui videbunt Ierusalem, habitationem opulentam, tabernaculum, quod nequaquam transferri poterit: nec auferentur clavi eius in sempiternum, et omnes funiculi eius non rumpentur:
21 But there the glorious LORD [will be] unto us a place of broad rivers [and] streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.
quia solummodo ibi magnificus est Dominus noster: locus fluviorum rivi latissimi et patentes: non transibit per eum navis remigum, neque trieris magna transgredietur eum.
22 For the LORD [is] our judge, the LORD [is] our lawgiver, the LORD [is] our king; he will save us.
Dominus enim iudex noster: Dominus legifer noster, Dominus rex noster: ipse salvabit nos.
23 Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.
Laxati sunt funiculi tui, et non praevalebunt: sic erit malus tuus ut dilatare signum non queas. Tunc dividentur spolia praedarum multarum: claudi diripient rapinam.
24 And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein [shall be] forgiven [their] iniquity.
Nec dicet vicinus: Elangui: populus qui habitat in ea, auferetur ab eo iniquitas.
