Isaiah 7
1 And it cometh to pass in the days of Ahaz, son of Jotham, son of Uzziah, king of Judah, gone up hath Rezin king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, king of Israel, to Jerusalem, to battle against it, and he is not able to fight against it.
Et factum est in diebus Achaz filii Ioathan, filii Oziae regis Iuda, ascendit Rasin rex Syriae, et Phacee filius Romeliae rex Israel, in Ierusalem, ad praeliandum contra eam: et non potuerunt debellare eam.
2 And it is declared to the house of David, saying, 'Aram hath been led towards Ephraim,' And his heart and the heart of his people is moved, like the moving of trees of a forest by the presence of wind.
Et nunciaverunt domui David, dicentes: Requievit Syria super Ephraim, et commotum est cor eius, et cor populi eius, sicut moventur ligna silvarum a facie venti.
3 And Jehovah saith unto Isaiah, 'Go forth, I pray thee, to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shear-Jashub thy son, unto the end of the conduit of the upper pool, unto the highway of the fuller's field,
Et dixit Dominus ad Isaiam: Egredere in occursum Achaz tu, et qui derelictus est Iasub filius tuus, ad extremum aquaeductus piscinae superioris in via Agri fullonis.
4 and thou hast said unto him: 'Take heed, and be quiet, fear not, And let not thy heart be timid, Because of these two tails of smoking brands, For the fierceness of the anger of Rezin and Aram, And the son of Remaliah.
Et dices ad eum: Vide ut sileas: noli timere, et cor tuum ne formidet a duabus caudis titionum fumigantium istorum in ira furoris Rasin regis Syriae, et filii Romeliae:
5 Because that Aram counselled against thee evil, Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, saying:
eo quod consilium inierit contra te Syria in malum Ephraim, et filius Romeliae, dicentes:
6 We go up into Judah, and we vex it, And we rend it unto ourselves, And we cause a king to reign in its midst — The son of Tabeal.
Ascendamus ad Iudam, et suscitemus eum, et avellamus eum ad nos, et ponamus regem in medio eius filium Tabeel.
7 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: It doth not stand, nor shall it be!
Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Non stabit, et non erit istud:
8 For the head of Aram [is] Damascus, And the head of Damascus [is] Rezin, And within sixty and five years Is Ephraim broken from [being] a people.
sed caput Syriae Damascus, et caput Damasci Rasin: et adhuc sexaginta et quinque anni, et desinet Ephraim esse populus:
9 And the head of Ephraim [is] Samaria, And the head of Samaria [is] the son of Remaliah. If ye do not give credence, Surely ye are not stedfast.'
et caput Ephraim Samaria, et caput Samariae filius Romeliae. Si non credideritis, non permanebitis.
10 And Jehovah addeth to speak unto Ahaz, saying:
Et adiecit Dominus loqui ad Achaz, dicens:
11 'Ask for thee a sign from Jehovah thy God, Make deep the request, or make [it] high upwards.' (Sheol h7585)
Pete tibi signum a Domino Deo tuo in profundum inferni, sive in excelsum supra. (Sheol h7585)
12 And Ahaz saith, 'I do not ask nor try Jehovah.'
Et dixit Achaz: Non petam, et non tentabo Dominum.
13 And he saith, 'Hear, I pray you, O house of David, Is it a little thing for you to weary men, That ye weary also my God?
Et dixit: Audite ergo domus David: Numquid parum vobis est, molestos esse hominibus, quia molesti estis et Deo meo?
14 Therefore the Lord Himself giveth to you a sign, Lo, the Virgin is conceiving, And is bringing forth a son, And hath called his name Immanuel,
Propter hoc dabit Dominus ipse vobis signum. Ecce virgo concipiet, et pariet filium, et vocabitur nomen eius Emmanuel.
15 Butter and honey he doth eat, When he knoweth to refuse evil, and to fix on good.
Butyrum et mel comedet, ut sciat reprobare malum, et eligere bonum.
16 For before the youth doth know To refuse evil, and to fix on good, Forsaken is the land thou art vexed with, because of her two kings.
Quia antequam sciat puer reprobare malum, et eligere bonum, derelinquetur terra, quam tu detestaris a facie duorum regum suorum.
17 Jehovah bringeth on thee, and on thy people, And on the house of thy father, Days that have not come, Even from the day of the turning aside of Ephraim from Judah, By the king of Asshur.
Adducet Dominus super te, et super populum tuum, et super domum patris tui dies, qui non venerunt a diebus separationis Ephraim a Iuda cum rege Assyriorum.
18 And it hath come to pass, in that day, Jehovah doth hiss for a fly that [is] in the extremity of the brooks of Egypt, And for a bee that [is] in the land of Asshur.
Et erit in die illa: Sibilabit Dominus muscae, quae est in extremo fluminum Aegypti, et api, quae est in terra Assur,
19 And they have come, and rested all of them in the desolate valleys, And in holes of the rocks, and on all the thorns, And on all the commendable things.
et venient, et requiescent omnes in torrentibus vallium, et in cavernis petrarum, et in omnibus frutetis, et in universis foraminibus.
20 In that day doth the Lord shave, By a razor that is hired beyond the river, By the king of Asshur, The head, and the hair of the feet, Yea, also the beard it consumeth.
In die illa radet Dominus in novacula conducta in his, qui trans flumen sunt, in rege Assyriorum, caput et pilos pedum, et barbam universam.
21 And it hath come to pass, in that day, A man keepeth alive a heifer of the herd, And two of the flock,
Et erit in die illa: Nutriet homo vaccam boum, et duas oves,
22 And it hath come to pass, From the abundance of the yielding of milk he eateth butter, For butter and honey doth every one eat Who is left in the heart of the land.
et prae ubertate lactis comedet butyrum: butyrum enim et mel manducabit omnis qui relictus fuerit in medio terrae.
23 And it hath come to pass, in that day, Every place where there are a thousand vines, At a thousand silverlings, Is for briers and for thorns.
Et erit in die illa: Omnis locus ubi fuerint mille vites, mille argenteis, in spinas et in vepres erunt.
24 With arrows and with bow he cometh thither, Because all the land is brier and thorn.
Cum sagittis et arcu ingredientur illuc: vepres enim et spinae erunt in universa terra.
25 And all the hills that with a mattock are kept in order, Thither cometh not the fear of brier and thorn, And it hath been for the sending forth of ox, And for the treading of sheep!'
Et omnes montes, qui in sarculo sarrientur, non veniet illuc terror spinarum et veprium. et erit in pascua bovis, et in conculcationem pecoris.
