Isaiæ 27
1 in die illo visitabit Dominus in gladio suo duro et grandi et forti super Leviathan serpentem vectem et super Leviathan serpentem tortuosum et occidet cetum qui in mari est
In that day Jehovah with his hard and great and strong sword will punish leviathan the swift serpent, and leviathan the crooked serpent, and he will kill the monster that is in the sea.
2 in die illa vinea meri cantabit ei
In that day is a vineyard of wine. Sing ye to it.
3 ego Dominus qui servo eam repente propinabo ei ne forte visitetur contra eam nocte et die servo eam
I Jehovah am its keeper, I will water it every moment. Lest any hurt it, I will guard it night and day.
4 indignatio non est mihi quis dabit me spinam et veprem in proelio gradiar super eam succendam eam pariter
Wrath is not in me. Would that the briers and thorns were against me in battle! I would march upon them. I would burn them together.
5 an potius tenebit fortitudinem meam faciet pacem mihi pacem faciet mihi
Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me. Yea, let him make peace with me.
6 qui egrediuntur impetu ad Iacob florebit et germinabit Israhel et implebunt faciem orbis semine
In days to come Jacob shall take root; Israel shall blossom and bud. And they shall fill the face of the world with fruit.
7 numquid iuxta plagam percutientis se percussit eum aut sicut occidit interfectos eius sic occisus est
Has he smitten them as he smote those who smote them? Or are they slain according to the slaughter of those who were slain by them?
8 in mensura contra mensuram cum abiecta fuerit iudicabis eam meditata est in spiritu suo duro per diem aestus
In measure, in sending it forth, thou contend with it. He has removed with his rough blast in the day of the east wind.
9 idcirco super hoc dimittetur iniquitas domui Iacob et iste omnis fructus ut auferatur peccatum eius cum posuerit omnes lapides altaris sicut lapides cineris adlisos non stabunt luci et delubra
Therefore by this the iniquity of Jacob shall be forgiven. And this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: that he makes all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten apart, so that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more.
10 civitas enim munita desolata erit speciosa relinquetur et dimittetur quasi desertum ibi pascetur vitulus et ibi accubabit et consumet summitates eius
For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken like the wilderness. There the calf shall feed, and there he shall lie down, and consume the branches of it.
11 in siccitate messis illius conterentur mulieres venientes et docentes eam non est enim populus sapiens propterea non miserebitur eius qui fecit eum et qui formavit eum non parcet ei
When the boughs of it are withered, they shall be broken off. The women shall come, and set them on fire, for it is a people of no understanding. Therefore he who made them will not have compassion upon them, and he who formed them will show them no favor.
12 et erit in die illa percutiet Dominus ab alveo Fluminis usque ad torrentem Aegypti et vos congregabimini unus et unus filii Israhel
And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah will beat off his fruit, from the flood of the River to the brook of Egypt. And ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye sons of Israel.
13 et erit in die illa clangetur in tuba magna et venient qui perditi fuerant de terra Assyriorum et qui eiecti erant in terra Aegypti et adorabunt Dominum in monte sancto in Hierusalem
And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great trumpet shall be blown. And they shall come who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and those who were outcasts in the land of Egypt. And they shall worship Jehovah in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
