Isaiæ 19
1 onus Aegypti ecce Dominus ascendet super nubem levem et ingredietur Aegyptum et movebuntur simulacra Aegypti a facie eius et cor Aegypti tabescet in medio eius
The burden of Egypt: "Look, Jehovah rides on a swift cloud, and comes to Egypt. The idols of Egypt will tremble at his presence; and the heart of Egypt will melt in its midst.
2 et concurrere faciam Aegyptios adversum Aegyptios et pugnabit vir contra fratrem suum et vir contra amicum suum civitas adversus civitatem regnum adversus regnum
I will stir up the Egyptians against the Egyptians, and they will fight everyone against his brother, and everyone against his neighbor; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
3 et disrumpetur spiritus Aegypti in visceribus eius et consilium eius praecipitabo et interrogabunt simulacra sua et divinos suos et pythones et ariolos
The spirit of Egypt will fail in its midst. I will destroy its counsel. They will seek the idols, spirits of the dead, mediums, and spiritists.
4 et tradam Aegyptum in manu dominorum crudelium et rex fortis dominabitur eorum ait Dominus Deus exercituum
I will give over the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel lord. A fierce king will rule over them," says Jehovah of hosts.
5 et arescet aqua de mari et fluvius desolabitur atque siccabitur
The waters will fail from the sea, and the river will be wasted and become dry.
6 et deficient flumina adtenuabuntur et siccabuntur rivi aggerum calamus et iuncus marcescet
The rivers will become foul. The streams of Egypt will be diminished and dried up. The reeds and flags will wither away.
7 nudabitur alveus rivi a fonte suo et omnis sementis inrigua siccabitur arescet et non erit
The meadows by the Nile, by the brink of the Nile, and all the sown fields of the Nile, will become dry, be driven away, and be no more.
8 et maerebunt piscatores et lugebunt omnes mittentes in flumen hamum et expandentes rete super faciem aquae marcescent
The fishermen will lament, and all those who fish in the Nile will mourn, and those who spread nets on the waters will languish.
9 confundentur qui operabantur linum pectentes et texentes subtilia
Moreover those who work in combed flax, and those who weave white cloth, will be confounded.
10 et erunt inrigua eius flaccentia omnes qui faciebant lacunas ad capiendos pisces
The pillars will be broken in pieces. All those who work for hire will be grieved in soul.
11 stulti principes Taneos sapientes consiliarii Pharao dederunt consilium insipiens quomodo dicetis Pharaoni filius sapientium ego filius regum antiquorum
The princes of Zoan are utterly foolish. The counsel of the wisest counselors of Pharaoh has become stupid. How do you say to Pharaoh, "I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings?"
12 ubi sunt nunc sapientes tui adnuntient tibi et indicent quid cogitaverit Dominus exercituum super Aegyptum
Where then are your sages? And let them tell you now; and let them know what Jehovah of hosts has purposed concerning Egypt.
13 stulti facti sunt principes Taneos emarcuerunt principes Mempheos deceperunt Aegyptum angulum populorum eius
The princes of Zoan have become fools. The princes of Memphis are deceived. They have caused Egypt to go astray, who are the cornerstone of her tribes.
14 Dominus miscuit in medio eius spiritum vertiginis et errare fecerunt Aegyptum in omni opere suo sicut errat ebrius et vomens
Jehovah has mixed a spirit of perverseness in the midst of her; and they have caused Egypt to go astray in all of its works, like a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
15 et non erit Aegypto opus quod faciat caput et caudam incurvantem et refrenantem
Neither shall there be for Egypt any work, which head or tail, palm branch or rush, may do.
16 in die illa erit Aegyptus quasi mulieres et stupebunt et timebunt a facie commotionis manus Domini exercituum quam ipse movebit super eam
In that day the Egyptians will be like women. They will tremble and fear because of the shaking of the hand of Jehovah of hosts, which he shakes over them.
17 et erit terra Iuda Aegypto in festivitatem omnis qui illius fuerit recordatus pavebit a facie consilii Domini exercituum quod ipse cogitavit super eam
The land of Judah will become a terror to Egypt. Everyone to whom mention is made of it will be afraid, because of the plans of Jehovah of hosts, which he determines against it.
18 in die illa erunt quinque civitates in terra Aegypti loquentes lingua Chanaan et iurantes per Dominum exercituum civitas Solis vocabitur una
In that day, there will be five cities in the land of Egypt that speak the language of Canaan, and swear loyalty to Jehovah of hosts. One will be called the City of the Sun.
19 in die illa erit altare Domini in medio terrae Aegypti et titulus iuxta terminum eius Domini
In that day, there will be an altar to Jehovah in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to Jehovah at its border.
20 et erit in signum et in testimonium Domino exercituum in terra Aegypti clamabunt enim ad Dominum a facie tribulantis et mittet eis salvatorem et propugnatorem qui liberet eos
It will be for a sign and for a witness to Jehovah of hosts in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to Jehovah because of oppressors, and he will send them a savior and a defender, and he will deliver them.
21 et cognoscetur Dominus ab Aegypto et cognoscent Aegyptii Dominum in die illa et colent eum in hostiis et muneribus et vota vovebunt Domino et solvent
Jehovah will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know Jehovah in that day. Yes, they will worship with sacrifice and offering, and will make vows to Jehovah, and will perform them.
22 et percutiet Dominus Aegyptum plaga et sanabit eam et revertentur ad Dominum et placabitur eis et sanabit eos
Jehovah will strike Egypt, striking and healing. They will return to Jehovah, and he will listen to their pleas, and will heal them.
23 in die illa erit via de Aegypto in Assyrios et intrabit Assyrius Aegyptum et Aegyptius in Assyrios et servient Aegyptii Assur
In that day there will be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria; and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.
24 in die illa erit Israhel tertius Aegyptio et Assyrio benedictio in medio terrae
In that day, Israel will be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth;
25 cui benedixit Dominus exercituum dicens benedictus populus meus Aegypti et opus manuum mearum Assyrio hereditas autem mea Israhel
because Jehovah of hosts has blessed them, saying, "Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel my inheritance."
