< Isaiah 43 >
1 But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called [thee] by thy name; thou [art] mine.
Et nunc haec dicit Dominus creans te Iacob, et formans te Israel: Noli timere, quia redemi te, et vocavi te nomine tuo: meus es tu.
2 When thou passest through the waters, I [will be] with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
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 thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Savior: I gave Egypt [for] thy ransom, Cush and Seba for thee.
Quia ego Dominus Deus tuus sanctus Israel salvator tuus, dedi propitiationem tuam Aegyptum, Aethopiam, et Saba pro te.
4 Since thou hast been precious in my sight, thou hast been honorable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy 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 Fear not: for I [am] with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;
Noli timere, quia ego tecum sum: ab Oriente adducam semen tuum, et ab Occidente congregabo te.
6 I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
Dicam Aquiloni: Da: et Austro: Noli prohibere: affer filios meos de longinquo, et filias meas ab extremis terrae.
7 [Even] every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; verily, I have made him.
Et omnem, qui invocat nomen meum, in gloriam meam creavi eum, formavi eum, et feci eum.
8 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
Educ foras populum caecum, et oculos habentem: surdum, et aures ei sunt.
9 Let all the nations be collected, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and show us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, [It is] truth.
Omnes gentes congregatae sunt simul, et collectae sunt tribus: quis in vobis annunciet istud, et quae prima sunt audire nos faciet? dent testes eorum, iustificentur, et audiant, et dicant: Vere.
10 Ye [are] my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I [am] he: before me there was no god formed, neither shall 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, [even] 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, and have saved, and I have shown, when [there was] no strange [god] among you: therefore ye [are] my witnesses, saith the LORD, that 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, before the day [was], I [am] he; and [there is] none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall hinder it?
Et ab initio ego ipse, et non est qui de manu mea eruat: operabor, et quis avertet illud?
14 Thus saith the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry [is] in the ships.
Haec dicit Dominus redemptor vester, sanctus Israel: Propter vos misi in Babylonem, et detraxi vectes universos, et Chaldaeos 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 saith the LORD, who maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
Haec dicit Dominus, qui dedit in mari viam, et in aquis torrentibus semitam.
17 Who bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.
Qui eduxit quadrigam et equum: agmen et robustum, simul obdormierunt, nec resurgent: contriti sunt quasi linum, et extincti sunt.
18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
Ne memineritis priorum, et antiqua ne intueamini.
19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye 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 beast of the field shall honor me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters 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 This people have I formed for myself; they shall show forth my praise.
Populum istum formavi mihi, laudem meam narrabit.
22 But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.
Non me invocasti Iacob, nec laborasti in me Israel.
23 Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt-offerings; neither hast thou honored me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense.
Non obtulisti mihi arietem holocausti tui, et victimis tuis non glorificasti me: non te servire feci in oblatione, nec laborem tibi praebui in thure.
24 Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thy iniquities.
Non emisti mihi argento calamum, et adipe victimarum tuarum non inebriasti me. Verumtamen servire me fecisti in peccatis tuis, praebuisti mihi laborem in iniquitatibus tuis.
25 I, [even] I, [am] he that blotteth out thy transgressions for my own sake, and will not remember thy 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: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.
Reduc me in memoriam, et iudicemur simul: narra si quid habes ut iustificeris.
27 Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.
Pater tuus primus peccavit, et interpretes tui praevaricati sunt in me.
28 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
Et contaminavi principes sanctos, dedi ad internecionem Iacob, et Israel in blasphemiam.
