Isaiah 25
1 O Jehovah, thou art my God; I will exalt thee; I will praise thy name, For thou hast done wonderful things; Thine ancient purposes are faithfulness and truth.
Domine Deus meus es tu, exaltabo te, et confitebor nomini tuo: quoniam fecisti mirabilia, cogitationes antiquas fideles, amen.
2 Thou hast made the city a heap; The fortified city a ruin. The palace of the barbarians is to be no more a city! It shall never be built again.
Quia posuisti civitatem in tumulum, urbem fortem in ruinam, domum alienorum: ut non sit civitas, et in sempiternum non aedificetur.
3 Therefore shall mighty kingdoms praise thee; The cities of the terrible nations shall honor thee;
Super hoc laudabit te populus fortis, civitas gentium robustarum timebit te.
4 For thou hast been a defence to the poor; A defence to the needy in his distress; A refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, When the rage of tyrants was like a storm against a wall.
Quia factus es fortitudo pauperi, fortitudo egeno in tribulatione sua: spes a turbine, umbraculum ab aestu. spiritus enim robustorum quasi turbo impellens parietem.
5 As heat in a dry land is made to vanish, So thou puttest down the tumult of the barbarians; As heat is allayed by a thick cloud, So the triumph of the tyrants is brought low.
Sicut aestus in siti, tumultum alienorum humiliabis: et quasi calore sub nube torrente propaginem fortium marcescere facies.
6 Then in this mountain shall Jehovah of hosts prepare for all nations A feast of fat things, and wines kept on the lees; Of fat things full of marrow, of wines kept on the lees well refined.
Et faciet Dominus exercituum omnibus populis in monte hoc convivium pinguium, convivium vindemiae, pinguium medullatorum, vindemiae defaecatae.
7 He will destroy in this mountain the covering that was cast over all people, And the veil that was spread over all nations.
Et praecipitabit in monte isto faciem vinculi colligati super omnes populos, et telam quam orditus est super omnes nationes.
8 He will destroy death forever; The Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces, And the reproach of his people will he take away from the whole earth; For Jehovah hath said it.
Praecipitabit mortem in sempiternum: et auferet Dominus Deus lacrymam ab omni facie, et opprobrium populi sui auferet de universa terra: quia Dominus locutus est.
9 In that day shall men say, “Behold, this is our God; We waited for him, and he hath saved us; This is Jehovah, for whom we waited; Let us rejoice and exult in his salvation.”
Et dicet in die illa: Ecce Deus noster iste, expectavimus eum, et salvabit nos: iste Dominus, sustinuimus eum, exultabimus, et laetabimur in salutari eius.
10 For the hand of Jehovah shall rest upon this mountain, And Moab shall be trodden down in his place, As straw is trodden down in a dung-pool.
Quia requiescet manus Domini in monte isto: et triturabitur Moab sub eo, sicuti teruntur paleae in plaustro.
11 And he shall stretch out his hands in the midst of it, As the swimmer stretcheth out his hands to swim, But God shall put down his pride, Together with the devices of his hands.
Et extendet manus suas sub eo, sicut extendit natans ad natandum: et humiliabit gloriam eius cum allisione manuum eius.
12 And the high bulwarks of thy walls will he lay low; He will bring them down to the ground; he will lay them in the dust.
Et munimenta sublimium murorum tuorum concident, et humiliabuntur, et detrahentur in terram usque ad pulverem.
