Isaiah 43
1 But now thus says the LORD who created you, Jacob, and he who formed you, Israel: "Do not be afraid, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by your name. You are mine.
Et nunc hæc 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 through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned, and the flame will not scorch 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 am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I have given Egypt as your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba in your place.
Quia ego Dominus Deus tuus sanctus Israel salvator tuus, dedi propitiationem tuam Ægyptum, Æthopiam, et Saba pro te.
4 Since you have been precious and honored in my sight, and I have loved you; therefore I will give people in your place, and nations 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 will bring your descendants from the east, and gather you from the west.
Noli timere, quia ego tecum sum: ab Oriente adducam semen tuum, et ab Occidente congregabo te.
6 I will tell the north, 'Give them up.' and tell the south, 'Do not hold them back. Bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the farthest parts of the earth—
Dicam Aquiloni: Da: et Austro: Noli prohibere: affer filios meos de longinquo, et filias meas ab extremis terræ.
7 everyone who is called by my name, and whom I have created for my glory, whom I have formed, yes, whom I have made.'"
Et omnem, qui invocat nomen meum, in gloriam meam creavi eum, formavi eum, et feci eum.
8 Bring out the blind people who have eyes, and the deaf who have ears.
Educ foras populum cæcum, et oculos habentem: surdum, et aures ei sunt.
9 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the peoples be assembled. Who among them can declare this, and show us former things? Let them bring their witnesses, that they may be justified; or let them hear, and say, "That is true."
Omnes gentes congregatæ sunt simul, et collectæ sunt tribus: quis in vobis annunciet istud, et quæ prima sunt audire nos faciet? dent testes eorum, iustificentur, et audiant, et dicant: Vere.
10 "You are my witnesses," says the LORD, "With my servant whom I have chosen; that you may know and believe me, and understand that I am he. Before me there was no God formed, neither will 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, I am the LORD; and besides me there is no savior.
Ego sum, ego sum Dominus, et non est absque me salvator.
12 I have declared, I have saved, and I have shown; and there was no strange god among you. Therefore you are my witnesses," says the LORD, "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 Yes, since the day was I am he; and there is no one who can deliver out of my hand. I will work, and who can hinder it?"
Et ab initio ego ipse, et non est qui de manu mea eruat: operabor, et quis avertet illud?
14 Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: "For your sake, I have sent to Babylon, and I will bring all of them down as fugitives, even the Chaldeans, in the ships of their rejoicing.
Hæc dicit Dominus redemptor vester, sanctus Israel: Propter vos misi in Babylonem, et detraxi vectes universos, et Chaldæos 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 says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
Hæc dicit Dominus, qui dedit in mari viam, et in aquis torrentibus semitam.
17 who brings forth the chariot and horse, the army and the mighty man (they lie down together, they shall not rise; they are extinct, they are quenched like a wick):
Qui eduxit quadrigam et equum: agmen et robustum, simul obdormierunt, nec resurgent: contriti sunt quasi linum, et extincti sunt.
18 "Do not remember the former things, and do not consider the things of old.
Ne memineritis priorum, et antiqua ne intueamini.
19 Look, I will do a new thing. It springs forth now. Do you not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
Ecce ego facio nova, et nunc orientur, utique cognoscetis ea: ponam in deserto viam, et in invio flumina.
20 The animals of the field shall honor me, the jackals and the ostriches; because I give water in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, 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 the people which I formed for myself, that they might set forth my praise.
Populum istum formavi mihi, laudem meam narrabit.
22 Yet you have not called on me, Jacob; but you have been weary of me, Israel.
Non me invocasti Iacob, nec laborasti in me Israel.
23 You have not brought me of your sheep for burnt offerings; neither have you honored me with your sacrifices. I have not burdened you with offerings, 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 præbui in thure.
24 You have bought me no sweet cane with money, nor have you filled me with the fat of your sacrifices; but you have burdened me 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, præbuisti mihi laborem in iniquitatibus tuis.
25 I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake; and I will not remember your sins.
Ego sum, ego sum ipse qui deleo iniquitates tuas propter me, et peccatorum tuorum non recordabor.
26 Put me in remembrance. Let us plead together. Set forth your case, 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 teachers have transgressed against me.
Pater tuus primus peccavit, et interpretes tui prævaricati sunt in me.
28 Therefore I will profane the princes of the sanctuary; and I will make Jacob a curse, and Israel a reviling."
Et contaminavi principes sanctos, dedi ad internecionem Iacob, et Israel in blasphemiam.
