Isaiah 2
1 The thing that Isaiah son of Amoz hath seen concerning Judah and Jerusalem:
Verbum quod vidit Isaias, filius Amos, super Juda et Jerusalem.
2 And it hath come to pass, In the latter end of the days, Established is the mount of Jehovah's house, Above the top of the mounts, And it hath been lifted up above the heights, And flowed unto it have all the nations.
Et erit in novissimis diebus: præparatus mons domus Domini in vertice montium, et elevabitur super colles; et fluent ad eum omnes gentes,
3 And gone have many peoples and said, 'Come, and we go up unto the mount of Jehovah, Unto the house of the God of Jacob, And He doth teach us of His ways, And we walk in His paths, For from Zion goeth forth a law, And a word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
et ibunt populi multi, et dicent: Venite, et ascendamus ad montem Domini, et ad domum Dei Jacob; et docebit nos vias suas, et ambulabimus in semitis ejus, quia de Sion exibit lex, et verbum Domini de Jerusalem.
4 And He hath judged between the nations, And hath given a decision to many peoples, And they have beat their swords to ploughshares, And their spears to pruning-hooks, Nation doth not lift up sword unto nation, Nor do they learn any more — war.
Et judicabit 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, And we walk in the light of Jehovah.'
Domus Jacob, venite, et ambulemus in lumine Domini.
6 For Thou hast left Thy people, the house of Jacob. For they have been filled from the east, And [are] sorcerers like the Philistines, And with the children of strangers strike hands.
Projecisti enim populum tuum, domum Jacob, quia repleti sunt ut olim, et augeres habuerunt ut Philisthiim, et pueris alienis adhæserunt.
7 And its land is full of silver and gold, And there is no end to its treasures, And its land is full of horses, And there is no end to its chariots,
Repleta est terra argento et auro, et non est finis thesaurorum ejus.
8 And its land is full of idols, To the work of its hands it boweth itself, To that which its fingers have made,
Et repleta est terra ejus equis, et innumerabiles quadrigæ ejus. Et repleta est terra ejus idolis; opus manuum suarum adoraverunt, quod fecerunt digiti eorum.
9 And the low boweth down, and the high is humbled, And Thou acceptest them not.
Et incurvavit se homo, et humiliatus est vir; ne ergo dimittas eis.
10 Enter into a rock, and be hidden in dust, Because of the fear of Jehovah, And because of the honour of His excellency.
Ingredere in petram, et abscondere in fossa humo a facie timoris Domini, et a gloria majestatis ejus.
11 The haughty eyes of man have been humbled, And bowed down hath been the loftiness of men, And set on high hath Jehovah alone been in that day.
Oculi sublimes hominis humiliati sunt, et incurvabitur altitudo virorum; exaltabitur autem Dominus solus in die illa.
12 For a day [is] to Jehovah of Hosts, For every proud and high one, And for every lifted up and low one,
Quia dies Domini exercituum super omnem superbum, et excelsum, et super omnem arrogantem, et humiliabitur;
13 And for all cedars of Lebanon, The high and the exalted ones, And for all oaks of Bashan,
et super omnes cedros Libani sublimes et erectas, et super omnes quercus Basan,
14 And for all the high mountains, And for all the exalted heights,
et super omnes montes excelsos, et super omnes colles elevatos,
15 And for every high tower, And for every fenced wall,
et super omnem turrim excelsam, et super omnem murum munitum,
16 And for all ships of Tarshish, And for all desirable pictures.
et super omnes naves Tharsis, et super omne quod visu pulchrum est,
17 And bowed down hath been the haughtiness of man, And humbled the loftiness of men, And set on high hath Jehovah alone been in that day.
et incurvabitur sublimitas hominum, et humiliabitur altitudo virorum, et elevabitur Dominus solus in die illa;
18 And the idols — they completely pass away.
et idola penitus conterentur;
19 And [men] have entered into caverns of rocks, And into caves of dust, Because of the fear of Jehovah, And because of the honour of His excellency, In His rising to terrify the earth.
et introibunt in speluncas petrarum, et in voragines terræ, a facie formidinis Domini et a gloria majestatis ejus, cum surrexerit percutere terram.
20 In that day doth man cast his idols of silver, And his idols of gold, That they have made for him to worship, To moles, and to bats,
In die illa projiciet homo idola argenti sui, et simulacra auri sui, quæ fecerat sibi ut adoraret, talpas et vespertiliones.
21 To enter into cavities of the rocks, And into clefts of the high places, Because of the fear of Jehovah, And because of the honour of His excellency, In His rising to terrify the earth.
Et ingreditur scissuras petrarum et in cavernas saxorum, a facie formidinis Domini, et a gloria majestatis ejus, cum surrexerit percutere terram.
22 Cease for you from man, Whose breath [is] in his nostrils, For — in what is he esteemed?
Quiescite ergo ab homine, cujus spiritus in naribus ejus est, quia excelsus reputatus est ipse.
