Isaiah 63
1 'Who [is] this coming from Edom? With dyed garments from Bozrah? This that is honourable in his clothing, Travelling in the abundance of his power?' — 'I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save.'
Quis est iste, qui venit de Edom, tinctis vestibus de Bosra? iste formosus in stola sua, gradiens in multitudine fortitudinis suæ. Ego, qui loquor iustitiam, et propugnator sum ad salvandum.
2 'Wherefore [is] thy clothing red? And thy garments as treading in a wine fat?'
Quare ergo rubrum est indumentum tuum, et vestimenta tua sicut calcantium in torculari?
3 — 'A wine-press I have trodden by myself, And of the peoples there is no one with me, And I tread them in mine anger, And I trample them in my fury, Sprinkled is their strength on my garments, And all my clothing I have polluted.
Torcular calcavi solus, et de Gentibus non est vir mecum: calcavi eos in furore meo, et conculcavi eos in ira mea: et aspersus est sanguis eorum super vestimenta mea, et omnia indumenta mea inquinavi.
4 For the day of vengeance [is] in my heart, And the year of my redeemed hath come.
Dies enim ultionis in corde meo annus redemptionis meæ venit.
5 And I look attentively, and there is none helping, And I am astonished that there is none supporting, And give salvation to me doth mine own arm. And my wrath — it hath supported me.
Circumspexi, et non erat auxiliator: quæsivi et non fuit qui adiuvaret: et salvavit mihi brachium meum, et indignatio mea ipsa auxiliata est mihi.
6 And I tread down peoples in mine anger, And I make them drunk in my fury, And I bring down to earth their strength.
Et conculcavi populos in furore meo, et inebriavi eos in indignatione mea, et detraxi in terram virtutem eorum.
7 The kind acts of Jehovah I make mention of, The praises of Jehovah, According to all that Jehovah hath done for us, And the abundance of the goodness to the house of Israel, That He hath done for them, According to His mercies, And according to the abundance of His kind acts.
Miserationum Domini recordabor, laudem Domini super omnibus, quæ reddidit nobis Dominus, et super multitudinem bonorum domui Israel, quæ largitus est eis secundum indulgentiam suam, et secundum multitudinem misericordiarum suarum.
8 And He saith, Only My people they [are], Sons — they lie not, and He is to them for a saviour.
Et dixit: Verumtamen populus meus est, filii non negantes: et factus est eis salvator.
9 In all their distress [He is] no adversary, And the messenger of His presence saved them, In His love and in His pity He redeemed them, And He doth lift them up, And beareth them all the days of old.
In omni tribulatione eorum non est tribulatus, et angelus faciei eius salvavit eos: in dilectione sua, et in indulgentia sua ipse redemit eos, et portavit eos, et elevavit eos cunctis diebus sæculi.
10 And they have rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit, And He turneth to them for an enemy, He Himself hath fought against them.
Ipsi autem ad iracundiam provocaverunt, et afflixerunt spiritum sancti eius: et conversus est eis in inimicum, et ipse debellavit eos.
11 And He remembereth the days of old, Moses — his people. Where [is] He who is bringing them up from the sea, The shepherd of his flock? Where [is] He who is putting in its midst His Holy Spirit?
Et recordatus est dierum sæculi Moysi, et populi sui: Ubi est qui eduxit eos de mari cum pastoribus gregis sui? ubi est qui posuit in medio eius spiritum sancti sui?
12 Leading by the right hand of Moses, the arm of His glory, Cleaving waters from before them, To make to Himself a name age-during.
Qui eduxit ad dexteram Moysen brachio maiestatis suæ, qui scidit aquas ante eos, ut faceret sibi nomen sempiternum:
13 Leading them through the depths, As a horse in a plain they stumble not.
Qui eduxit eos per abyssos, quasi equum in deserto non impingentem:
14 As a beast into a valley goeth down, The Spirit of Jehovah causeth him to rest, So hast Thou led Thy people, To make to Thyself a glorious name.
Quasi animal in campo descendens, spiritus Domini ductor eius fuit: sic adduxisti populum tuum ut faceres tibi nomen gloriæ.
15 Look attentively from the heavens, And see from Thy holy and beauteous habitation, Where [is] Thy zeal and Thy might? The multitude of Thy bowels and Thy mercies Towards me have refrained themselves.
Attende de cælo, et vide de habitaculo sancto tuo, et gloriæ tuæ: ubi est zelus tuus, et fortitudo tua, multitudo viscerum tuorum, et miserationum tuarum? super me continuerunt se.
16 For Thou [art] our Father, For Abraham hath not known us, And Israel doth not acknowledge us, Thou, O Jehovah, [art] our Father, Our redeemer from the age, [is] Thy name.
Tu enim pater noster, et Abraham nescivit nos, et Israel ignoravit nos: tu Domine pater noster, redemptor noster, a sæculo nomen tuum.
17 Why causest Thou us to wander, O Jehovah, from Thy ways? Thou hardenest our heart from Thy fear, Turn back for Thy servants' sake, The tribes of Thine inheritance.
Quare errare nos fecisti Domine de viis tuis: indurasti cor nostrum ne timeremus te? convertere propter servos tuos, tribus hereditatis tuæ.
18 For a little while did Thy holy people possess, Our adversaries have trodden down Thy sanctuary.
Quasi nihilum possederunt populum sanctum tuum: hostes nostri conculcaverunt sanctificationem tuam.
19 We have been from of old, Thou hast not ruled over them, Not called is Thy name upon them!
Facti sumus quasi in principio, cum non dominareris nostri, neque invocaretur nomen tuum super nos.
