Isaiæ 2
1 verbum quod vidit Isaias filius Amos super Iudam et Hierusalem
The thing that Isaiah son of Amoz hath seen concerning Judah and Jerusalem:
2 et erit in novissimis diebus praeparatus mons domus Domini in vertice montium et elevabitur super colles et fluent ad eum omnes gentes
And it hath come to pass, In the latter end of the days, Established is the mount of Jehovah's house, Above the top of the mounts, And it hath been lifted up above the heights, And flowed unto it have all the nations.
3 et ibunt populi multi et dicent venite et ascendamus ad montem Domini et ad domum Dei Iacob et docebit nos vias suas et ambulabimus in semitis eius quia de Sion exibit lex et verbum Domini de Hierusalem
And gone have many peoples and said, 'Come, and we go up unto the mount of Jehovah, Unto the house of the God of Jacob, And He doth teach us of His ways, And we walk in His paths, For from Zion goeth forth a law, And a word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
4 et iudicabit gentes et arguet populos multos et conflabunt gladios suos in vomeres et lanceas suas in falces non levabit gens contra gentem gladium nec exercebuntur ultra ad proelium
And He hath judged between the nations, And hath given a decision to many peoples, And they have beat their swords to ploughshares, And their spears to pruning-hooks, Nation doth not lift up sword unto nation, Nor do they learn any more — war.
5 domus Iacob venite et ambulemus in lumine Domini
O house of Jacob, come, And we walk in the light of Jehovah.'
6 proiecisti enim populum tuum domum Iacob quia repleti sunt ut olim et augures habuerunt ut Philisthim et pueris alienis adheserunt
For Thou hast left Thy people, the house of Jacob. For they have been filled from the east, And [are] sorcerers like the Philistines, And with the children of strangers strike hands.
7 repleta est terra argento et auro et non est finis thesaurorum eius
And its land is full of silver and gold, And there is no end to its treasures, And its land is full of horses, And there is no end to its chariots,
8 et repleta est terra eius equis et innumerabiles quadrigae eius et repleta est terra eius idolis opus manuum suarum adoraverunt quod fecerunt digiti eorum
And its land is full of idols, To the work of its hands it boweth itself, To that which its fingers have made,
9 et incurvavit se homo et humiliatus est vir ne ergo dimittas eis
And the low boweth down, and the high is humbled, And Thou acceptest them not.
10 ingredere in petram abscondere fossa humo a facie timoris Domini et a gloria maiestatis eius
Enter into a rock, and be hidden in dust, Because of the fear of Jehovah, And because of the honour of His excellency.
11 oculi sublimis hominis humiliati sunt et incurvabitur altitudo virorum exaltabitur autem Dominus solus in die illa
The haughty eyes of man have been humbled, And bowed down hath been the loftiness of men, And set on high hath Jehovah alone been in that day.
12 quia dies Domini exercituum super omnem superbum et excelsum et super omnem arrogantem et humiliabitur
For a day [is] to Jehovah of Hosts, For every proud and high one, And for every lifted up and low one,
13 et super omnes cedros Libani sublimes et erectas et super omnes quercus Basan
And for all cedars of Lebanon, The high and the exalted ones, And for all oaks of Bashan,
14 et super omnes montes excelsos et super omnes colles elevatos
And for all the high mountains, And for all the exalted heights,
15 et super omnem turrem excelsam et super omnem murum munitum
And for every high tower, And for every fenced wall,
16 et super omnes naves Tharsis et super omne quod visu pulchrum est
And for all ships of Tarshish, And for all desirable pictures.
17 et incurvabitur sublimitas hominum et humiliabitur altitudo virorum et elevabitur Dominus solus in die illa
And bowed down hath been the haughtiness of man, And humbled the loftiness of men, And set on high hath Jehovah alone been in that day.
18 et idola penitus conterentur
And the idols — they completely pass away.
19 et introibunt in speluncas petrarum et in voragines terrae a facie formidinis Domini et a gloria maiestatis eius cum surrexerit percutere terram
And [men] have entered into caverns of rocks, And into caves of dust, Because of the fear of Jehovah, And because of the honour of His excellency, In His rising to terrify the earth.
20 in die illa proiciet homo idola argenti sui et simulacra auri sui quae fecerat sibi ut adoraret talpas et vespertiliones
In that day doth man cast his idols of silver, And his idols of gold, That they have made for him to worship, To moles, and to bats,
21 et ingredietur fissuras petrarum et cavernas saxorum a facie formidinis Domini et a gloria maiestatis eius cum surrexerit percutere terram
To enter into cavities of the rocks, And into clefts of the high places, Because of the fear of Jehovah, And because of the honour of His excellency, In His rising to terrify the earth.
22 quiescite ergo ab homine cuius spiritus in naribus eius quia excelsus reputatus est ipse
Cease for you from man, Whose breath [is] in his nostrils, For — in what is he esteemed?
