Isaiah 43
1 And now, thus said YHWH, Your Creator, O Jacob, and your Fashioner, O Israel: Do not be afraid, for I have redeemed you, I have called on your name—you [are] 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 you pass into waters, I [am] with you, And into floods, they do not overflow you, When you go into fire, you are not burned, And a flame does not burn against you.
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—your God YHWH, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior, I have appointed Egypt your atonement, Cush and Seba in your stead.
Quia ego Dominus Deus tuus sanctus Israel salvator tuus, dedi propitiationem tuam Aegyptum, Aethopiam, et Saba pro te.
4 Since you were precious in My eyes, You were honored, and I have loved you, And I appoint men in your stead, And peoples instead of your life.
Ex quo honorabilis factus es in oculis meis, et gloriosus: ego dilexi te, et dabo homines pro te, et populos pro anima tua.
5 Do not be afraid, for I [am] with you, I bring in your seed from the east, And I gather you from the west.
Noli timere, quia ego tecum sum: ab Oriente adducam semen tuum, et ab Occidente congregabo te.
6 I am saying to the north, “Give up,” And to the south, “Do not restrain.” Bring in My sons from afar, And My daughters from the end of the earth.
Dicam Aquiloni: Da: et Austro: Noli prohibere: affer filios meos de longinquo, et filias meas ab extremis terrae.
7 Everyone who is called by My Name, Even for My glory I have created him, I have formed him, indeed, I have made him.
Et omnem, qui invocat nomen meum, in gloriam meam creavi eum, formavi eum, et feci eum.
8 He brought out a blind people who have eyes, And deaf ones who have ears.
Educ foras populum caecum, et oculos habentem: surdum, et aures ei sunt.
9 All the nations have been gathered together, And the peoples are assembled, Who among them declares this, And causes us to hear former things? They give their witnesses, And they are declared righteous, And they hear and say, “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, a declaration of YHWH, And My servant whom I have chosen, So that you know and give credence to Me, And understand that I [am] He, Before Me there was no God formed, And after Me there is none.
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 [am] YHWH, And besides Me there is no savior.
Ego sum, ego sum Dominus, et non est absque me salvator.
12 I declared, and saved, and proclaimed, And there is no stranger with you, And you [are] My witnesses, a declaration of YHWH, And I [am] God.
Ego annunciavi, et salvavi: auditum feci, et non fuit in vobis alienus: vos testes mei, dicit Dominus, et ego Deus.
13 Even from the day I [am] He, And there is no deliverer from My hand, I work, and who turns it back?
Et ab initio ego ipse, et non est qui de manu mea eruat: operabor, et quis avertet illud?
14 Thus said YHWH, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: “I have sent to Babylon for your sake, And caused bars to descend—all of them, And the Chaldeans, whose song [is] in the ships.
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] YHWH, your Holy One, Creator of Israel, your King.”
Ego Dominus sanctus vester, creans Israel rex vester.
16 Thus said YHWH, Who is giving a way in the sea, And a path in the strong waters.
Haec dicit Dominus, qui dedit in mari viam, et in aquis torrentibus semitam.
17 Who is bringing forth chariot and horse, A force, even a strong one: “They lie down together—they do not rise, They have been extinguished, They have been quenched as flax.”
Qui eduxit quadrigam et equum: agmen et robustum, simul obdormierunt, nec resurgent: contriti sunt quasi linum, et extincti sunt.
18 Do not remember former things, And do not consider ancient things.
Ne memineritis priorum, et antiqua ne intueamini.
19 Behold, I am doing a new thing, now it springs up, Do you not know it? Indeed, I put a way in a wilderness, In a desolate place—floods.
Ecce ego facio nova, et nunc orientur, utique cognoscetis ea: ponam in deserto viam, et in invio flumina.
20 The beast of the field honors Me, Dragons and daughters of an ostrich, For I have given waters in a wilderness, Floods in a desolate place, To give drink to My people—My chosen.
Glorificabit me bestia agri, dracones et struthiones: quia dedi in deserto aquas, flumina in invio, ut darem potum populo meo, electo meo.
21 I have formed this people for Myself, They recount My praise.
Populum istum formavi mihi, laudem meam narrabit.
22 And you have not called Me, O Jacob, For you have been wearied of Me, O Israel,
Non me invocasti Iacob, nec laborasti in me Israel.
23 You have not brought to Me, The lamb of your burnt-offerings, And [with] your sacrifices you have not honored Me, I have not caused you to serve with a present, Nor wearied you with frankincense.
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 You have not bought Me sweet cane with money, And have not filled Me [with] the fat of your sacrifices, Only—you have caused Me to serve with your sins, You have wearied Me with your 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 [am] He who is blotting out Your transgressions for My own sake, And I do not remember your sins.
Ego sum, ego sum ipse qui deleo iniquitates tuas propter me, et peccatorum tuorum non recordabor.
26 Cause Me to remember—we are judged together, Declare that you may be justified.
Reduc me in memoriam, et iudicemur simul: narra si quid habes ut iustificeris.
27 Your first father sinned, And your interpreters transgressed against Me,
Pater tuus primus peccavit, et interpretes tui praevaricati sunt in me.
28 And I defile princes of the sanctuary, And I give Jacob to destruction, and Israel to revilings!
Et contaminavi principes sanctos, dedi ad internecionem Iacob, et Israel in blasphemiam.
