< Isaiah 45 >

1 Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two-leaved gates, and the gates shall not be shut;
haec dicit Dominus christo meo Cyro cuius adprehendi dexteram ut subiciam ante faciem eius gentes et dorsa regum vertam et aperiam coram eo ianuas et portae non cludentur
2 I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut asunder the bars of iron:
ego ante te ibo et gloriosos terrae humiliabo portas aereas conteram et vectes ferreos confringam
3 And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, who call [thee] by thy name, [am] the God of Israel.
et dabo tibi thesauros absconditos et arcana secretorum ut scias quia ego Dominus qui voco nomen tuum Deus Israhel
4 For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel my elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me:
propter servum meum Iacob et Israhel electum meum et vocavi te in nomine tuo adsimilavi te et non cognovisti me
5 I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else, [there is] no God besides me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
ego Dominus et non est amplius extra me non est deus accinxi te et non cognovisti me
6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that [there is] none besides me. I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else.
ut sciant hii qui ab ortu solis et qui ab occidente quoniam absque me non est ego Dominus et non est alter
7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these [things].
formans lucem et creans tenebras faciens pacem et creans malum ego Dominus faciens omnia haec
8 Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.
rorate caeli desuper et nubes pluant iustum aperiatur terra et germinet salvatorem et iustitia oriatur simul ego Dominus creavi eum
9 Woe to him that contendeth with his Maker! [Let] the potsherd [contend] with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?
vae qui contradicit fictori suo testa de samiis terrae numquid dicet lutum figulo suo quid facis et opus tuum absque manibus est
10 Woe to him that saith to [his] father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?
vae qui dicit patri quid generas et mulieri quid parturis
11 Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.
haec dicit Dominus Sanctus Israhel plastes eius ventura interrogate me super filios meos et super opus manuum mearum mandastis mihi
12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, [even] my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.
ego feci terram et hominem super eam creavi ego manus meae tetenderunt caelos et omni militiae eorum mandavi
13 I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD of hosts.
ego suscitavi eum ad iustitiam et omnes vias eius dirigam ipse aedificabit civitatem meam et captivitatem meam dimittet non in pretio neque in muneribus dicit Dominus Deus exercituum
14 Thus saith the LORD, The labor of Egypt, and merchandise of Cush and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over to thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down to thee, they shall make supplication to thee, [saying], Surely God [is] in thee; and [there is] none else, [there is] no God.
haec dicit Dominus labor Aegypti et negotiatio Aethiopiae et Sabaim viri sublimes ad te transibunt et tui erunt post te ambulabunt vincti manicis pergent et te adorabunt teque deprecabuntur tantum in te est Deus et non est absque te deus
15 Verily thou [art] a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Savior.
vere tu es Deus absconditus Deus Israhel salvator
16 They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they shall go to confusion together [that are] makers of idols.
confusi sunt et erubuerunt omnes simul abierunt in confusione fabricatores errorum
17 [But] Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
Israhel salvatus est in Domino salute aeterna non confundemini et non erubescetis usque in saeculum saeculi
18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I [am] the LORD; and [there is] none else.
quia haec dicit Dominus creans caelos ipse Deus formans terram et faciens eam ipse plastes eius non in vanum creavit eam ut habitetur formavit eam ego Dominus et non est alius
19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I have not said to the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
non in abscondito locutus sum in loco terrae tenebroso non dixi semini Iacob frustra quaerite me ego Dominus loquens iustitiam adnuntians recta
20 Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye [that have] escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray to a god [that] cannot save.
congregamini et venite et accedite simul qui salvati estis ex gentibus nescierunt qui levant lignum sculpturae suae et rogant deum non salvantem
21 Tell ye, and bring [them] near; yes, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? [who] hath told it from that time? [have] not I the LORD? and [there is] no God else besides me; a just God and a Savior; [there is] none besides me.
adnuntiate et venite et consiliamini simul quis auditum fecit hoc ab initio ex tunc praedixit illud numquid non ego Dominus et non est ultra Deus absque me Deus iustus et salvans non est praeter me
22 Look to me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I [am] God, and [there is] none else.
convertimini ad me et salvi eritis omnes fines terrae quia ego Deus et non est alius
23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth [in] righteousness, and shall not return, That to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
in memet ipso iuravi egredietur de ore meo iustitiae verbum et non revertetur quia mihi curvabunt omnia genu et iurabit omnis lingua
24 Surely, shall [one] say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength: [even] to him shall [men] come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.
ergo in Domino dicet meae sunt iustitiae et imperium ad eum venient et confundentur omnes qui repugnant ei
25 In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
in Domino iustificabitur et laudabitur omne semen Israhel
