< Isaiah 42 >
1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; my chosen, in whom my soul delighteth: I have put my spirit upon him; he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
ecce servus meus suscipiam eum electus meus conplacuit sibi in illo anima mea dedi spiritum meum super eum iudicium gentibus proferet
2 He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.
non clamabit neque accipiet personam nec audietur foris vox eius
3 A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment in truth.
calamum quassatum non conteret et linum fumigans non extinguet in veritate educet iudicium
4 He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his law.
non erit tristis neque turbulentus donec ponat in terra iudicium et legem eius insulae expectabunt
5 Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them forth; he that spread abroad the earth and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
haec dicit Dominus Deus creans caelos et extendens eos firmans terram et quae germinant ex ea dans flatum populo qui est super eam et spiritum calcantibus eam
6 I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;
ego Dominus vocavi te in iustitia et adprehendi manum tuam et servavi et dedi te in foedus populi in lucem gentium
7 to open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.
ut aperires oculos caecorum et educeres de conclusione vinctum de domo carceris sedentes in tenebris
8 I am the LORD; that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise unto graven images.
ego Dominus hoc est nomen meum gloriam meam alteri non dabo et laudem meam sculptilibus
9 Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.
quae prima fuerant ecce venerunt nova quoque ego adnuntio antequam oriantur audita vobis faciam
10 Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth; ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein, the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.
cantate Domino canticum novum laus eius ab extremis terrae qui descenditis in mare et plenitudo eius insulae et habitatores earum
11 Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up [their voice], the villages that Kedar doth inhabit; let the inhabitants of Sela sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains.
sublevetur desertum et civitates eius in domibus habitabit Cedar laudate habitatores Petrae de vertice montium clamabunt
12 Let them give glory unto the LORD, and declare his praise in the islands.
ponent Domino gloriam et laudem eius in insulis nuntiabunt
13 The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man; he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, he shall shout aloud; he shall do mightily against his enemies.
Dominus sicut fortis egredietur sicut vir proeliator suscitabit zelum vociferabitur et clamabit super inimicos suos confortabitur
14 I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: [now] will I cry out like a travailing woman; I will gasp and pant together.
tacui semper silui patiens fui sicut pariens loquar dissipabo et absorbebo simul
15 I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and will dry up the pools.
desertos faciam montes et colles et omne gramen eorum exsiccabo et ponam flumina in insulas et stagna arefaciam
16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they know not; in paths that they know not will I lead them: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things will I do, and I will not forsake them.
et ducam caecos in via quam nesciunt in semitis quas ignoraverunt ambulare eos faciam ponam tenebras coram eis in lucem et prava in recta haec verba feci eis et non dereliqui eos
17 They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say unto molten images, Ye are our gods.
conversi sunt retrorsum confundantur confusione qui confidunt in sculptili qui dicunt conflatili vos dii nostri
18 Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.
surdi audite et caeci intuemini ad videndum
19 Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I send? who is blind as he that is at peace [with me], and blind as the LORD’S servant?
quis caecus nisi servus meus et surdus nisi ad quem nuntios meos misi quis caecus nisi qui venundatus est quis caecus nisi servus Domini
20 Thou seest many things, but thou observest not; his ears are open, but he heareth not.
qui vides multa nonne custodies qui apertas habes aures nonne audies
21 It pleased the LORD, for his righteousness’ sake, to magnify the law, and make it honourable.
et Dominus voluit ut sanctificaret eum et magnificaret legem et extolleret
22 But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.
ipse autem populus direptus et vastatus laqueus iuvenum omnes et in domibus carcerum absconditi sunt facti sunt in rapinam nec est qui eruat in direptionem et non est qui dicat redde
23 Who is there among you that will give ear to this? that will hearken and hear for the time to come?
quis est in vobis qui audiat hoc adtendat et auscultet futura
24 Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD? he against whom we have sinned, and in whose ways they would not walk, neither were they obedient unto his law.
quis dedit in direptionem Iacob et Israhel vastantibus nonne Dominus ipse cui peccavimus et noluerunt in viis eius ambulare et non audierunt legem eius
25 Therefore he poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle; and it set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.
et effudit super eum indignationem furoris sui et forte bellum et conbusit eum in circuitu et non cognovit et succendit eum et non intellexit
