Isaiæ 11

1 Et egredietur virga de radice Iesse, et flos de radice eius ascendet.

And there shall come forth a rod out of the root of Jesse, and a blossom shall come up from [his] root:

2 Et requiescet super eum spiritus Domini: spiritus sapientiæ, et intellectus, spiritus consilii, et fortitudinis, spiritus scientiæ, et pietatis,

and the Spirit of God shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and strength, the spirit of knowledge and godliness shall fill him;

3 et replebit eum spiritus timoris Domini: non secundum visionem oculorum iudicabit, neque secundum auditum aurium arguet:

the spirit of the fear of God. He shall not judge according to appearance, nor reprove according to report:

4 sed iudicabit in iustitia pauperes, et arguet in æquitate pro mansuetis terræ: et percutiet terram virga oris sui, et spiritu labiorum suorum interficiet impium.

but he shall judge the cause of the lowly, and shall reprove the lowly of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the word of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he destroy the ungodly one.

5 Et erit iustitia cingulum lumborum eius: et fides cinctorium renum eius.

And he shall have his loins girt with righteousness, and his sides clothed with truth.

6 Habitabit lupus cum agno: et pardus cum hœdo accubabit: vitulus et leo, et ovis simul morabuntur, et puer parvulus minabit eos.

And the wolf shall feed with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the young calf and bull and lion shall feed together; and a little child shall lead them.

7 Vitulus, et ursus pascentur: simul requiescent catuli eorum: et leo quasi bos comedet paleas.

And the ox and bear shall feed together; and their young shall be together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

8 Et delectabitur infans ab ubere super foramine aspidis: et in caverna reguli, qui ablactatus fuerit, manum suam mittet.

And an infant shall put his hand on the holes of asps, and on the nest of young asps.

9 Non nocebunt, et non occident in universo monte sancto meo: quia repleta est terra scientia Domini, sicut aquæ maris operientes.

And they shall not hurt, nor shall they at all be able to destroy any one on my holy mountain: for the whole [world] is filled with the knowledge of the Lord, as much water covers the seas.

10 In die illa radix Iesse, qui stat in signum populorum, ipsum Gentes deprecabuntur, et erit sepulchrum eius gloriosum.

And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall arise to rule over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust, and his rest shall be glorious.

11 Et erit in die illa: Adiiciet Dominus secundo manum suam ad possidendum residuum populi sui, quod relinquetur ab Assyriis, et ab Ægypto, et a Phetros, et ab Æthiopia, et ab Ælam, et a Sennaar, et ab Emath, et ab insulis maris.

And it shall be in that day, [that] the Lord shall again shew his hand, to be zealous for the remnant that is left of the people, which shall be left by the Assyrians, and [that] from Egypt, and from the country of Babylon, and from Ethiopia, and from the Elamites, and from the rising of the sun, and out of Arabia.

12 Et levabit signum in nationes, et congregabit profugos Israel, et dispersos Iuda colliget a quatuor plagis terræ.

And he shall lift up a standard for the nations, and he shall gather the lost ones of Israel, and he shall gather the dispersed of Juda from the four corners of the earth.

13 Et auferetur zelus Ephraim, et hostes Iuda peribunt: Ephraim non æmulabitur Iudam, et Iudas non pugnabit contra Ephraim.

And the envy of Ephraim shall be taken away, and the enemies of Juda shall perish: Ephraim shall not envy Juda, and Juda shall not afflict Ephraim.

14 Et volabunt in humeros Philisthiim per mare, simul prædabuntur filios Orientis: Idumæa et Moab præceptum manus eorum, et filii Ammon obedientes erunt.

And they shall fly in the ships of the Philistines: they shall at the same time spoil the sea, and them [that come] from the east, and Idumea: and they shall lay their hands on Moab first; but the children of Ammon shall first obey [them.]

15 Et desolabit Dominus linguam maris Ægypti, et levabit manum suam super flumen in fortitudine spiritus sui: et percutiet eum in septem rivis, ita ut transeant per eum calceati.

And the Lord shall make desolate the sea of Egypt; and he shall lay his hand on the river with a strong wind, and he shall smite the seven channels, so that men shall pass through it dry-shod.

16 Et erit via residuo populo meo, qui relinquetur ab Assyriis: sicut fuit Israeli in die illa, qua ascendit de Terra Ægypti.

And there shall be a passage for my people that is left in Egypt: and it shall be to Israel as the day when he came forth out of the land of Egypt.
