Isaiæ 25

NOVA VULGATA	Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
1 Domine, Deus meus es tu; exaltabo te, confitebor no mini tuo, quoniam fecisti mirabilia, cogitationes antiquas, fideles, veraces.	1 O LORD, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things, plans formed of old, faithful and sure.
2 Quia posuisti civitatem in tumulum, urbem munitam in ruinam: arx superborum non amplius est civitas, in sempiternum non reaedificabitur.	2 For thou hast made the city a heap, the fortified city a ruin; the palace of aliens is a city no more, it will never be rebuilt.
3 Super hoc glorificabit te populus fortis, civitas gentium robustarum timebit te;	3 Therefore strong peoples will glorify thee; cities of ruthless nations will fear thee.
4 quia factus es fortitudo pauperi, fortitudo egeno in tribulatione sua, protectio a turbine, umbraculum ab aestu: spiritus enim robustorum quasi imber hiemalis.	4 For thou hast been a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in his distress, a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat; for the blast of the ruthless is like a storm against a wall,
5 Sicut aestus in arida tumultum superborum humiliabis; sicut aestus in umbra nubis canticum fortium reprimes.	5 like heat in a dry place. Thou dost subdue the noise of the aliens; as heat by the shade of a cloud, so the song of the ruthless is stilled.
6 Et faciet Dominus exercituum omnibus populis in monte hoc convivium pinguium, convivium vini meri, pinguium medullatorum, vini deliquati.	6 On this mountain the LORD of hosts will make for all peoples a feast of fat things, a feast of wine on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wine on the lees well refined.
7 Et praecipitabit in monte isto faciem vinculi colligati super omnes populos et telam, quam orditus est super omnes nationes.	7 And he will destroy on this mountain the covering that is cast over all peoples, the veil that is spread over all nations.
8 Praecipitabit mortem in sempiternum et absterget Dominus Deus lacrimam ab omni facie et opprobrium populi sui auferet de universa terra, quia Dominus locutus est.	8 He will swallow up death for ever, and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from all faces, and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth; for the LORD has spoken.
9 Et dicetur in die illa: “ Ecce Deus noster iste, exspectavimus eum, ut salvaret nos; iste Dominus, sustinuimus eum: exsultabimus et laetabimur in salutari eius.	9 It will be said on that day, "Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us. This is the LORD; we have waited for him; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation."
10 Quia requiescet manus Domini in monte isto ”. Et triturabitur Moab in loco suo, sicuti teruntur paleae in sterquilinio;	10 For the hand of the LORD will rest on this mountain, and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, as straw is trodden down in a dung-pit.
11 et extendet manus suas in medio eius, sicut extendit natans ad natandum; et humiliabitur superbia eius cum allisione manuum eius.	11 And he will spread out his hands in the midst of it as a swimmer spreads his hands out to swim; but the LORD will lay low his pride together with the skill of his hands.
12 Et firmum munimentum murorum tuorum evertit, deiecit, prostravit in terram usque ad pulverem.	12 And the high fortifications of his walls he will bring down, lay low, and cast to the ground, even to the dust.
