Isaiah 65
1 "I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me. I was found by those who did not seek me. I said, 'Here I am. Here I am.' to a nation that did not call on my name.
[Quæsierunt me qui ante non interrogabant; invenerunt qui non quæsierunt me. Dixi: Ecce ego, ecce ego, ad gentem quæ non invocabat nomen meum.
2 All day long I have stretched out my hands to a disobedient and obstinate people, who walk in a way that is not good, following their own thoughts;
Expandi manus meas tota die ad populum incredulum, qui graditur in via non bona post cogitationes suas.
3 a people who provoke me to my face continually as they sacrifice in gardens and burn incense on bricks;
Populus qui ad iracundiam provocat me ante faciem meam semper; qui immolant in hortis, et sacrificant super lateres;
4 who sit among the graves, and lodge in the secret places; who eat pig's flesh, and the broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
qui habitant in sepulchris, et in delubris idolorum dormiunt; qui comedunt carnem suillam, et jus profanum in vasis eorum;
5 who say, 'Keep your distance, do not come near to me, for I am holier than you.' These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all the day.
qui dicunt: Recede a me, non appropinques mihi, quia immundus es. Isti fumus erunt in furore meo, ignis ardens tota die.
6 "Look, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, yes, I will recompense into their bosom,
Ecce scriptum est coram me: Non tacebo, sed reddam, et retribuam in sinum eorum.
7 your own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together," says the LORD, "who have burned incense on the mountains, and blasphemed me on the hills; therefore I will first measure their work into their bosom."
Iniquitates vestras, et iniquitates patrum vestrorum simul, dicit Dominus; qui sacrificaverunt super montes, et super colles exprobraverunt mihi; et remetiar opus eorum primum in sinu eorum.
8 Thus says the LORD, "As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, 'Do not destroy it, for a blessing is in it:' so will I do for my servants' sake, that I may not destroy them all.
Hæc dicit Dominus: Quomodo si inveniatur granum in botro, et dicatur: Ne dissipes illud, quoniam benedictio est: sic faciam propter servos meos, ut non disperdam totum.
9 And I will bring forth offspring from Jacob, and from Judah they shall inherit my mountains; and my chosen shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
Et educam de Jacob semen, et de Juda possidentem montes meos; et hæreditabunt eam electi mei, et servi mei habitabunt ibi.
10 Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the Valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down in, for my people who have sought me.
Et erunt campestria in caulas gregum, et vallis Achor in cubile armentorum, populo meo qui requisierunt me.
11 "But you who forsake the LORD, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Fortune, and who fill up mixed wine to Destiny;
Et vos qui dereliquistis Dominum, qui obliti estis montem sanctum meum, qui ponitis fortunæ mensam, et libatis super eam:
12 I will destine you to the sword, and you shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, you did not answer; when I spoke, you did not listen; but you did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I did not delight."
numerabo vos in gladio, et omnes in cæde corruetis: pro eo quod vocavi, et non respondistis; locutus sum, et non audistis; et faciebatis malum in oculis meis, et quæ nolui elegistis.
13 Therefore thus says the LORD, "Look, my servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; look, my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; look, my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be disappointed;
Propter hoc hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce servi mei comedent, et vos esurietis; ecce servi mei bibent, et vos sitietis;
14 look, my servants shall sing in gladness of heart, but you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall wail for anguish of spirit.
ecce servi mei lætabuntur, et vos confundemini; ecce servi mei laudabunt præ exsultatione cordis, et vos clamabitis præ dolore cordis, et præ contritione spiritus ululabitis,
15 You shall leave your name for a curse to my chosen; and the LORD will kill you; but he will call his servants by another name:
et dimittetis nomen vestrum in juramentum electis meis; et interficiet te Dominus Deus, et servos suos vocabit nomine alio:
16 so that he who blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from my eyes.
in quo qui benedictus est super terram benedicetur in Deo, amen, et qui jurat in terra jurabit in Deo, amen: quia oblivioni traditæ sunt angustiæ priores, et quia absconditæ sunt ab oculis meis.
17 "For, look, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
Ecce enim ego creo cælos novos, et terram novam; et non erunt in memoria priora, et non ascendent super cor.
18 But be you glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for, look, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
Sed gaudebitis et exsultabitis usque in sempiternum in his quæ ego creo: quia ecce ego creo Jerusalem exsultationem, et populum ejus gaudium.
19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people; and there shall be heard in her no more the voice of weeping and the voice of crying.
Et exsultabo in Jerusalem, et gaudebo in populo meo, et non audietur in eo ultra vox fletus et vox clamoris.
20 "There shall be no more there an infant of days, nor an old man who has not filled his days; for the child shall die one hundred years old, and the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed.
Non erit ibi amplius infans dierum, et senex qui non impleat dies suos, quoniam puer centum annorum morietur, et peccator centum annorum maledictus erit.
21 They shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
Et ædificabunt domos, et habitabunt; et plantabunt vineas, et comedent fructus earum.
22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and my chosen shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
Non ædificabunt, et alius habitabit; non plantabunt, et alius comedet: secundum enim dies ligni erunt dies populi mei, et opera manuum eorum inveterabunt.
23 They shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth for calamity; for they are the descendants of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.
Electi mei non laborabunt frustra, neque generabunt in conturbatione, quia semen benedictorum Domini est, et nepotes eorum cum eis.
24 It shall happen that, before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
Eritque antequam clament, ego exaudiam; adhuc illis loquentibus, ego audiam.
25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox; and dust shall be the serpent's food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain," says the LORD.
Lupus et agnus pascentur simul, leo et bos comedent paleas, et serpenti pulvis panis ejus. Non nocebunt, neque occident in omni monte sancto meo, dicit Dominus.]
