Isaiah 57
1 The righteous perishes, and no man lays it to heart; and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil.
iustus perit et nemo est qui recogitet in corde suo et viri misericordiae colliguntur quia non est qui intellegat a facie enim malitiae collectus est iustus
2 He enters into peace; they rest in their beds, each one who walks in his uprightness.
veniat pax requiescat in cubili suo qui ambulavit in directione sua
3 "But draw near here, you sons of the sorceress, offspring of an adulterer and a prostitute.
vos autem accedite huc filii auguratricis semen adulteri et fornicariae
4 Against whom are you mocking? Against whom do you make a wide mouth, and stick out your tongue? Aren't you children of rebellion, offspring of liars,
super quem lusistis super quem dilatastis os et eiecistis linguam numquid non vos filii scelesti semen mendax
5 you who inflame yourselves among the oaks, under every green tree; who kill the children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks?
qui consolamini in diis subter omne lignum frondosum immolantes parvulos in torrentibus subter inminentes petras
6 Among the smooth stones of the valley is your portion; they, they are your lot; you have even poured a drink offering to them. You have offered an offering. Shall I be appeased for these things?
in partibus torrentis pars tua haec est sors tua et ipsis effudisti libamen obtulisti sacrificium numquid super his non indignabor
7 On a high and lofty mountain you have set your bed; there also you went up to offer sacrifice.
super montem excelsum et sublimem posuisti cubile tuum et illuc ascendisti ut immolares hostias
8 Behind the doors and the posts you have set up your memorial: for you have uncovered to someone besides me, and have gone up; you have enlarged your bed, and made you a covenant with them: you loved their bed where you saw it.
et post ostium et retro postem posuisti memoriale tuum quia iuxta me discoperuisti et suscepisti adulterum dilatasti cubile tuum et pepigisti cum eis dilexisti stratum eorum manu aperta
9 You went to the king with oil, and increased your perfumes, and sent your ambassadors far off, and debased yourself even to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
et ornasti te regi unguento et multiplicasti pigmenta tua misisti legatos tuos procul et humiliata es usque ad inferos (Sheol h7585)
10 You were wearied with the length of your way; yet you did not say, 'It is in vain.' You found a reviving of your strength; therefore you weren't faint.
in multitudine viae tuae laborasti non dixisti quiescam vitam manus tuae invenisti propterea non rogasti
11 "Of whom have you been afraid and in fear, that you lie, and have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart? Haven't I held my peace even of long time, and you do not fear me?
pro quo sollicita timuisti quia mentita es et mei non es recordata neque cogitasti in corde tuo quia ego tacens et quasi non videns et mei oblita es
12 I will declare your righteousness; and as for your works, they shall not profit you.
ego adnuntiabo iustitiam tuam et opera tua non proderunt tibi
13 When you cry, let those who you have gathered deliver you; but the wind shall take them, a breath shall carry them all away: but he who takes refuge in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain."
cum clamaveris liberent te congregati tui et omnes eos auferet ventus tollet aura qui autem fiduciam habet mei hereditabit terram et possidebit montem sanctum meum
14 He will say, "Build up, build up, prepare the way, take up the stumbling-block out of the way of my people."
et dicam viam facite praebete iter declinate de semita auferte offendicula de via populi mei
15 For thus says the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: "I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also who is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.
quia haec dicit Excelsus et Sublimis habitans aeternitatem et sanctum nomen eius in excelso et in sancto habitans et cum contrito et humili spiritu ut vivificet spiritum humilium et vivificet cor contritorum
16 For I will not contend forever, neither will I be always angry; for the spirit would faint before me, and the souls who I have made.
non enim in sempiternum litigabo neque usque ad finem irascar quia spiritus a facie mea egredietur et flatus ego faciam
17 For the iniquity of his covetousness was I angry, and struck him; I hid myself and was angry; and he went on backsliding in the way of his heart.
propter iniquitatem avaritiae eius iratus sum et percussi eum abscondi et indignatus sum et abiit vagus in via cordis sui
18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners.
vias eius vidi et dimisi eum et reduxi eum et reddidi consolationes ipsi et lugentibus eius
19 I create the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace, to him who is far off and to him who is near," says Jehovah; "and I will heal him."
creavi fructum labiorum pacem pacem ei qui longe est et qui prope dixit Dominus et sanavi eum
20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea; for it can't rest, and its waters cast up mire and dirt.
impii autem quasi mare fervens quod quiescere non potest et redundant fluctus eius in conculcationem et lutum
21 "There is no peace," says my God, "for the wicked."
non est pax dixit Deus meus impiis
