Isaiah 27
1 In that day lay a charge doth Jehovah, With his sword — the sharp, and the great, and the strong, On leviathan — a fleeing serpent, And on leviathan — a crooked serpent, And He hath slain the dragon that [is] in the sea.
In die illa visitabit Dominus in gladio suo duro, et grandi, et forti, super Leviathan serpentem vectem, et super Leviathan serpentem tortuosum, et occidet cetum, qui in mari est.
2 In that day, 'A desirable vineyard,' respond ye to her,
In die illa vinea meri cantabit ei.
3 I, Jehovah, am its keeper, every moment I water it, Lest any lay a charge against it, Night and day I keep it!
Ego Dominus, qui servo eam, repente propinabo ei: ne forte visitetur contra eam, nocte et die servo eam.
4 Fury is not in Me; Who giveth Me a brier — a thorn in battle? I step into it, I burn it at once.
Indignatio non est mihi: quis dabit me spinam et veprem in prælio: gradiar super eam, succendam eam pariter?
5 Or — he doth take hold on My strength, He doth make peace with Me, Peace he doth make with Me.
An potius tenebit fortitudinem meam, faciet pacem mihi, pacem faciet mihi?
6 Those coming in He causeth to take root, Jacob doth blossom, and flourished hath Israel, And they have filled the face of the world [with] increase.
Qui ingrediuntur impetu ad Iacob, florebit et germinabit Israel, et implebunt faciem orbis semine.
7 As the smiting of his smiter hath He smitten him? As the slaying of his slain doth He slay?
Numquid iuxta plagam percutientis se percussit eum? aut sicut occidit interfectos eius, sic occisus est?
8 In measure, in sending it forth, thou strivest with it, He hath taken away by His sharp wind, In the day of an east wind,
In mensura contra mensuram, cum abiecta fuerit, iudicabis eam: meditatus est in spiritu suo duro per diem æstus.
9 Therefore by this is the iniquity of Jacob covered, And this [is] all the fruit — To take away his sin, in His setting all the stones of an altar, As chalkstones beaten in pieces, They rise not — shrines and images.
Idcirco super hoc dimittetur iniquitas domui Iacob: et iste omnis fructus ut auferatur peccatum eius, cum posuerit omnes lapides altaris sicut lapides cineris allisos, non stabunt luci et delubra.
10 For the fenced city [is] alone, A habitation cast out and forsaken as a wilderness, There doth the calf delight, And there it lieth down, And hath consumed its branches.
Civitas enim munita desolata erit, speciosa relinquetur, et dimittetur quasi desertum: ibi pascetur vitulus, et ibi accubabit, et consumet summitates eius.
11 In the withering of its branch it is broken off, Women are coming in setting it on fire, For it [is] not a people of understanding, Therefore pity it not doth its Maker, And its Former doth not favour it.
In siccitate messes illius conterentur, mulieres venientes, et docentes eam: non est enim populus sapiens, propterea non miserebitur eius, qui fecit eum: et qui formavit eum, non parcet ei.
12 And it hath come to pass, in that day, Beat out doth Jehovah from the branch of the river, Unto the stream of Egypt, And ye are gathered one by one, O sons of Israel.
Et erit: In die illa percutiet Dominus ab alveo fluminis usque ad torrentem Ægypti, et vos congregabimini unus et unus filii Israel.
13 And it hath come to pass, in that day, It is blown with a great trumpet, And come in have those perishing in the land of Asshur, And those cast out in the land of Egypt, And have bowed themselves to Jehovah, In the holy mount — in Jerusalem!
Et erit: In die illa clangetur in tuba magna, et venient qui perditi fuerant de terra Assyriorum, et qui eiecti erant in Terra Ægypti, et adorabunt Dominum in monte sancto in Ierusalem.
