Isaiah 2
1 That which Isaiah, son of Amoz saw in vision, —concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
Verbum, quod vidit Isaias, filius Amos, super Iuda et Ierusalem.
2 But it shall come to pass, in the afterpart of the days, That the mountain of the house of Yahweh Shall be, set up, as the head of the mountains, And be exalted above the hills, —And all the nations, shall stream thereunto;
Et erit in novissimis diebus præparatus mons domus Domini in vertice montium, et elevabitur super colles, et fluent ad eum omnes gentes.
3 And many peoples shall go and say—Come ye, and let us ascend Unto the mountain of Yahweh Unto the house of the God of Jacob, That he may teach us of his ways, And we may walk in his paths, —For, out of Zion, shall go forth a law, And the word of Yahweh out of Jerusalem;
Et ibunt populi multi, et dicent: Venite et ascendamus ad montem Domini, et ad domum Dei Iacob, et docebit nos vias suas, et ambulabimus in semitis eius: quia de Sion exibit lex, et verbum Domini de Ierusalem.
4 And he will judge between the nations, And be umpire to many peoples, —And they will beat their swords into ploughshares and their spears into pruning-hooks, Nation—against nation, shall not lift up sword, Neither shall they learn any more to make war,
Et iudicabit Gentes, et arguet populos multos: et conflabunt gladios suos in vomeres, et lanceas suas in falces: non levabit gens contra gentem gladium, nec exercebuntur ultra ad prælium.
5 O house of Jacob! come ye and let us walk in the light of Yahweh.
Domus Iacob venite, et ambulemus in lumine Domini.
6 Therefore hast thou abandoned thy people the house of Jacob, Because they have become full of the East, And use hidden arts like the Philistines, —And with the children of foreigners, strike hands; —
Proiecisti enim populum tuum, domum Iacob: quia repleti sunt ut olim, et augeres habuerunt ut Philisthiim, et pueris alienis adhæserunt.
7 So that filled is their land with silver and gold, And there is no end to their treasures, —And filled is their land with horses, And there is no end to their chariots;
Repleta est terra argento et auro: et non est finis thesaurorum eius:
8 And filled is their land with idols, —To the work of their own hands, do they bow themselves down, To that which they made with their own fingers.
et repleta est terra eius equis: et innumerabiles quadrigæ eius. Et repleta est terra eius idolis: opus manuum suarum adoraverunt, quod fecerunt digiti eorum.
9 So the mean man boweth down And the great man stoopeth low, —Therefore do not thou forgive them!
Et incurvavit se homo, et humiliatus est vir: ne ergo dimittas eis.
10 Enter into the rock, Or hide thee in the dust, —Because of the terribleness of Yahweh, And for his majestic splendour.
Ingredere in petram, et abscondere in fossa humo a facie timoris Domini, et a gloria maiestatis eius.
11 The lofty looks of mean men, shall be humbled, And, the haughtiness of great men, shall be bowed down, —And Yahweh alone shall be exalted in that day.
Oculi sublimes hominis humiliati sunt, et incurvabitur altitudo virorum: exaltabitur autem Dominus solus in die illa.
12 For, a day of Yahweh of hosts, [shall be] —Upon every one who is high and lofty, —And upon every one who is lifted up, And he shall be brought low;
Quia dies Domini exercituum super omnem superbum, et excelsum, et super omnem arrogantem: et humiliabitur.
13 And upon all cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, —And upon all the oaks of Bashan;
Et super omnes cedros Libani sublimes, et erectas, et super omnes quercus Basan.
14 And upon all the lofty mountains, —And upon all the uplifted hills;
Et super omnes montes excelsos, et super omnes colles elevatos.
15 And upon every high tower, —And upon every fortress wall;
Et super omnem turrim excelsam, et super omnem murum munitum,
16 And upon all the ships of Tarshish, —And upon all desirable banners.
et super omnes naves Tharsis, et super omne, quod visu pulchrum est.
17 And the haughtiness of mean men, shall be humbled, —And the loftiness of great men, shall be laid low, —And Yahweh alone shall be exalted in that day.
Et incurvabitur sublimitas hominum, et humiliabitur altitudo virorum, et elevabitur Dominus solus in die illa:
18 And, the idols, shall wholly pass away;
et idola penitus conterentur:
19 And they shall enter into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of clay, —Because of the terribleness of Yahweh, And for his majestic splendour, When he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.
et introibunt in speluncas petrarum, et in voragines terræ a facie formidinis Domini, et a gloria maiestatis eius, cum surrexerit percutere terram.
20 In that day shall the son of earth cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, —which had been made for him to worship, into the hole of the mice, and to the bats;
In die illa proiiciet homo idola argenti sui, et simulacra auri sui, quæ fecerat sibi ut adoraret, talpas et vespertiliones.
21 That he may enter into the clefts of the rocks, and into the fissures of the crags, —Because of the terribleness of Yahweh, And for his majestic splendour, When he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.
Et ingreditur scissuras petrarum, et in cavernas saxorum a facie formidinis Domini, et a gloria maiestatis eius, cum surrexerit percutere terram.
22 Cease ye from the son of earth, In whose nostrils is but a breath, —For wherein to be reckoned upon, is he?
Quiescite ergo ab homine, cuius spiritus in naribus eius est, quia excelsus reputatus est ipse.
