Isaiah 51
1 Hearken unto Me, ye pursuing righteousness, Seeking Jehovah, Look attentively unto the rock — ye have been hewn, And unto the hole of the pit — ye have been digged.
Audite me qui sequimini quod iustum est, et quaeritis Dominum: attendite ad petram unde excisi estis, et ad cavernam laci, de qua praecisi estis.
2 Look attentively unto Abraham your father, And unto Sarah — she bringeth you forth, For — one — I have called him, And I bless him, and multiply him.
Attendite ad Abraham patrem vestrum, et ad Saram, quae peperit vos: quia unum vocavi eum, et benedixi ei, et multiplicavi eum.
3 For Jehovah hath comforted Zion, He hath comforted all her wastes, And He setteth her wilderness as Eden, And her desert as a garden of Jehovah, Joy, yea, gladness is found in her, Confession, and the voice of song.
Consolabitur ergo Dominus Sion, et consolabitur omnes ruinas eius: et ponet desertum eius quasi delicias, et solitudinem eius quasi hortum Domini. Gaudium et laetitia invenietur in ea, gratiarum actio, et vox laudis.
4 Attend unto Me, O My people, And, O My nation, unto Me give ear. For a law from Me goeth out, And My judgment to the light, Peoples I do cause to rest.
Attendite ad me popule meus, et tribus mea me audite: quia lex a me exiet, et iudicium meum in lucem populorum requiescet.
5 Near [is] My righteousness, Gone out hath My salvation and Mine arms, Peoples they judge, on Me isles do wait, Yea, on Mine arm they do wait with hope.
Prope est iustus meus, egressus est salvator meus, et brachia mea populos iudicabunt: me insulae expectabunt, et brachium meum sustinebunt.
6 Lift ye up to the heavens your eyes, And look attentively unto the earth beneath, For the heavens as smoke have vanished, And the earth as a garment weareth out, And its inhabitants as gnats do die, And My salvation is to the age, And My righteousness is not broken.
Levate in caelum oculos vestros, et videte sub terra deorsum: quia caeli sicut fumus liquescent, et terra sicut vestimentum atteretur, et habitatores eius sicut haec interibunt: Salus autem mea in sempiternum erit, et iustitia mea non deficiet.
7 Hearken unto Me, ye who know righteousness, A people, in whose heart [is] My law, Fear ye not the reproach of men, And for their reviling be not affrighted,
Audite me qui scitis iustum, populus meus lex mea in corde eorum: nolite timere opprobrium hominum, et blasphemias eorum ne metuatis.
8 For as a garment eat them doth a moth, And as wool eat them doth a worm, And My righteousness is to the age, And My salvation to all generations.
Sicut enim vestimentum, sic comedet eos vermis: et sicut lanam, sic devorabit eos tinea: salus autem mea in sempiternum erit, et iustitia mea in generationes generationum.
9 Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of Jehovah, Awake, as [in] days of old, generations of the ages, Art not Thou it that is hewing down Rahab, Piercing a dragon!
Consurge, consurge, induere fortitudinem brachium Domini: consurge sicut in diebus antiquis, in generationibus saeculorum. Numquid non tu percussisti superbum, vulnerasti draconem?
10 Art not Thou it that is drying up a sea, Waters of a great deep? That hath made deep places of a sea A way for the passing of the redeemed?
Numquid non tu siccasti mare, aquam abyssi vehementis: qui posuisti profundum maris viam, ut transirent liberati?
11 And the ransomed of Jehovah turn back, And they have come to Zion with singing, And joy age-during [is] on their head, Gladness and joy they attain, Fled away have sorrow and sighing,
Et nunc qui redempti sunt a Domino, revertentur, et venient in Sion laudantes, et laetitia sempiterna super capita eorum, gaudium et laetitiam tenebunt, fugiet dolor et gemitus.
12 I — I [am] He — your comforter, Who [art] thou — and thou art afraid of man? he dieth! And of the son of man — grass he is made!
Ego, ego ipse consolabor vos: quis tu ut timeres ab homine mortali, et a filio hominis, qui quasi foenum ita arescet?
13 And thou dost forget Jehovah thy maker, Who is stretching out the heavens, and founding earth, And thou dost fear continually all the day, Because of the fury of the oppressor, As he hath prepared to destroy. And where [is] the fury of the oppressor?
Et oblitus es Domini factoris tui, qui tetendit caelos, et fundavit terram: et formidasti iugiter tota die a facie furoris eius, qui te tribulabat, et paraverat ad perdendum: ubi nunc est furor tribulantis?
14 Hastened hath a wanderer to be loosed, And he doth not die at the pit, And his bread is not lacking.
Cito veniet gradiens ad aperiendum, et non interficiet usque ad internecionem, nec deficiet panis eius.
15 And I [am] Jehovah thy God, Quieting the sea, when its billows roar, Jehovah of Hosts [is] His name.
Ego autem sum Dominus Deus tuus, qui conturbo mare, et intumescunt fluctus eius: Dominus exercituum nomen meum.
16 And I put My words in thy mouth, And with the shadow of My hand have covered thee, To plant the heavens, and to found earth, And to say to Zion, 'My people [art] thou.'
Posui verba mea in ore tuo, et in umbra manus meae protexi te, ut plantes caelos, et fundes terram: et dicas ad Sion: Populus meus es tu.
17 Stir thyself, stir thyself, rise, Jerusalem, Who hast drunk from the hand of Jehovah The cup of His fury, The goblet, the cup of trembling, thou hast drunk, Thou hast wrung out.
Elevare, elevare, consurge Ierusalem, quae bibisti de manu Domini calicem irae eius: usque ad fundum calicis soporis bibisti, et potasti usque ad faeces.
18 There is not a leader to her Out of all the sons she hath borne, And there is none laying hold on her hand Out of all the sons she hath nourished.
Non est qui sustentet eam ex omnibus filiis, quos genuit: et non est qui apprehendat manum eius ex omnibus filiis, quos enutrivit.
19 These two are meeting thee, who is moved for thee? Spoiling and destruction — Famine and sword, who — I comfort thee?
Duo sunt quae occurrerunt tibi: quis contristabitur super te? vastitas, et contritio, et fames, et gladius, quis consolabitur te?
20 Thy sons have been wrapped up, they have lain down, At the head of all out places, as a wild ox [in] a net, They are full of the fury of Jehovah, The rebuke of Thy God.
Filii tui proiecti sunt, dormierunt in capite omnium viarum, sicut oryx illaqueatus: pleni indignatione Domini, increpatione Dei tui.
21 Therefore, hear, I pray thee, this, O afflicted and drunken one, and not with wine,
Idcirco audi hoc paupercula, et ebria non a vino.
22 Thus said thy Lord Jehovah, and thy God, He pleadeth [for] his people: 'Lo, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of trembling, The goblet, the cup of My fury, Thou dost not add to drink it any more.
Haec dicit dominator tuus Dominus, et Deus tuus, qui pugnabit pro populo suo: Ecce tuli de manu tua calicem soporis, fundum calicis indignationis meae, non adiicies ut bibas illum ultra.
23 And I have put it into the hand of those afflicting thee, Who have said to thy soul, Bow down, and we pass over, And thou makest as the earth thy body, And as the street to those passing by!'
Et ponam illum in manu eorum, qui te humiliaverunt, et dixerunt animae tuae: Incurvare, ut transeamus: et posuisti ut terram corpus tuum, et quasi viam transeuntibus.
