Isaiæ 11
1 Et egredietur virga de radice Iesse, et flos de radice eius ascendet.
And a rod will go forth from the root of Jesse, and a flower will ascend from his root.
2 Et requiescet super eum spiritus Domini: spiritus sapientiae, et intellectus, spiritus consilii, et fortitudinis, spiritus scientiae, et pietatis,
And the Spirit of the Lord will rest upon him: the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and fortitude, the spirit of knowledge and piety.
3 et replebit eum spiritus timoris Domini: non secundum visionem oculorum iudicabit, neque secundum auditum aurium arguet:
And he will be filled with the spirit of the fear of the Lord. He will not judge according to the sight of the eyes, nor reprove according to the hearing of the ears.
4 sed iudicabit in iustitia pauperes, et arguet in aequitate pro mansuetis terrae: et percutiet terram virga oris sui, et spiritu labiorum suorum interficiet impium.
Instead, he will judge the poor with justice, and he will reprove the meek of the earth with fairness. And he will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth, and he will slay the impious with the spirit of his lips.
5 Et erit iustitia cingulum lumborum eius: et fides cinctorium renum eius.
And justice will be the belt around his waist. And faith will be the warrior’s belt at his side.
6 Habitabit lupus cum agno: et pardus cum hoedo accubabit: vitulus et leo, et ovis simul morabuntur, et puer parvulus minabit eos.
The wolf will dwell with the lamb; and the leopard will lie down with the kid; the calf and the lion and the sheep will abide together; and a little boy will drive them.
7 Vitulus, et ursus pascentur: simul requiescent catuli eorum: et leo quasi bos comedet paleas.
The calf and the bear will feed together; their young ones will rest together. And the lion will 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 a breastfeeding infant will play above the lair of the asp. And a child who has been weaned will thrust his hand into the den of the king snake.
9 Non nocebunt, et non occident in universo monte sancto meo: quia repleta est terra scientia Domini, sicut aquae maris operientes.
They will not harm, and they will not kill, on all my holy mountain. For the earth has been filled with the knowledge of the Lord, like the waters covering the sea.
10 In die illa radix Iesse, qui stat in signum populorum, ipsum gentes deprecabuntur, et erit sepulchrum eius gloriosum.
In that day, the root of Jesse, who stands as a sign among the people, the same the Gentiles shall beseech, and his sepulcher will be glorious.
11 Et erit in die illa: Adiiciet Dominus secundo manum suam ad possidendum residuum populi sui, quod relinquetur ab Assyriis, et ab Aegypto, et a Phetros, et ab Aethiopia, et ab Aelam, et a Sennaar, et ab Emath, et ab insulis maris.
And this shall be in that day: the Lord will send forth his hand a second time to take possession of the remnant of his people who will be left behind: from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Ethiopia, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
12 Et levabit signum in nationes, et congregabit profugos Israel, et dispersos Iuda colliget a quattuor plagis terrae.
And he will lift up a sign to the nations, and he will gather together the fugitives of Israel, and he will collect the dispersed of Judah from the four regions of the earth.
13 Et auferetur zelus Ephraim, et hostes Iuda peribunt: Ephraim non aemulabitur Iudam, et Iudas non pugnabit contra Ephraim.
And the envy of Ephraim will be taken away, and the enemies of Judah will perish. Ephraim will not be a rival to Judah, and Judah will not fight against Ephraim.
14 Et volabunt in humeros Philisthiim per mare, simul praedabuntur filios Orientis: Idumaea et Moab praeceptum manus eorum, et filii Ammon obedientes erunt.
And they will fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines through the sea; together they will plunder the sons of the east. Idumea and Moab will be under the rule of their hand, and the sons of Ammon will be obedient.
15 Et desolabit Dominus linguam maris Aegypti, 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 will desolate the tongue of the sea of Egypt. And he will lift up his hand over the river, with the strength of his Spirit; and he will strike it, in its seven streams, so that they may cross through it in their shoes.
16 Et erit via residuo populo meo, qui relinquetur ab Assyriis: sicut fuit Israeli in die illa, qua ascendit de Terra Aegypti.
And there will be a way for the remnant of my people, who will be left behind by the Assyrians: just as there was for Israel in the day that he ascended from the land of Egypt.
