Isaiah 51

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	VULGATA
1 Listen to me, you who follow what is just and who seek the Lord. Pay attention to the rock from which you have been hewn, and to the walls of the pit from which you have been dug.	1 Audite me, qui sequimini quod justum est, et quæritis Dominum ; attendite ad petram unde excisi estis, et ad cavernam laci de qua præcisi estis.
2 Pay attention to Abraham, your father, and to Sarah, who bore you. For I called him alone, and I blessed him, and I multiplied him.	2 Attendite ad Abraham, patrem vestrum, et ad Saram, quæ peperit vos : quia unum vocavi eum, et benedixi ei, et multiplicavi eum.
3 Therefore, the Lord will console Zion, and he will console all its ruins. And he will turn her desert into a place of delights, and her wilderness into a garden of the Lord. Gladness and rejoicing will be found in her, thanksgiving and a voice of praise.	3 Consolabitur ergo Dominus Sion, et consolabitur omnes ruinas ejus : et ponet desertum ejus quasi delicias, et solitudinem ejus quasi hortum Domini. Gaudium et lætitia invenietur in ea, gratiarum actio et vox laudis.
4 Pay attention to me, my people, and listen to me, my tribes. For a law will go forth from me, and my judgment will rest as a light for the nations.	4 Attendite ad me, popule meus, et tribus mea, me audite : quia lex a me exiet, et judicium meum in lucem populorum requiescet.
5 My just one is near. My savior has gone forth. And my arms will judge the people. The islands will hope in me, and they will patiently wait for my arm.	5 Prope est justus meus, egressus est salvator meus, et brachia mea populos judicabunt ; me insulæ exspectabunt, et brachium meum sustinebunt.
6 Lift up your eyes to heaven, and look down to the earth below. For the heavens will vanish like smoke, and the earth will be worn away like a garment, and its inhabitants will pass away in like manner. But my salvation will be forever, and my justice will not fail.	6 Levate in cælum oculos vestros, et videte sub terra deorsum : quia cæli sicut fumus liquescent, et terra sicut vestimentum atteretur, et habitatores ejus sicut hæc interibunt : salus autem mea in sempiternum erit, et justitia mea non deficiet.
7 Listen to me, you who know what is just, my people who have my law in their heart. Do not be afraid of disgrace among men, and do not dread their blasphemies.	7 Audite me, qui scitis justum, populus meus, lex mea in corde eorum : nolite timere opprobrium hominum, et blasphemias eorum ne metuatis :
8 For the worm will consume them like a garment, and the moth will devour them like wool. But my salvation will be forever, and my justice will be from generation to generation.	8 sicut enim vestimentum, sic comedet eos vermis, et sicut lanam, sic devorabit eos tinea : salus autem mea in sempiternum erit, et justitia mea in generationes generationum.
9 Rise up, Rise up! Clothe yourself in strength, O arm of the Lord! Rise up as in the days of antiquity, as in generations long past. Have you not struck the arrogant one and wounded the dragon?	9 Consurge, consurge, induere fortitudinem, brachium Domini ! consurge sicut in diebus antiquis, in generationibus sæculorum. Numquid non tu percussisti superbum, vulnerasti draconem ?
10 Have not you dried up the sea, the waters of the great abyss, and turned the depths of the sea into a road, so that the delivered could cross over it?	10 numquid non tu siccasti mare, aquam abyssi vehementis ; qui posuisti profundum maris viam, ut transirent liberati ?
11 And now, those who have been redeemed by the Lord will return. And they will arrive in Zion, praising. And everlasting rejoicing will be upon their heads. They will take hold of gladness and rejoicing. Anguish and mourning will flee away.	11 Et nunc qui redempti sunt a Domino, revertentur, et venient in Sion laudantes, et lætitia sempiterna super capita eorum : gaudium et lætitiam tenebunt ; fugiet dolor et gemitus.
12 It is I, I myself, who will console you. Who are you that you would be afraid of a mortal man, and of a son of man, who will wither like the grass?	12 Ego, ego ipse consolabor vos. Quis tu, ut timeres ab homine mortali, et a filio hominis qui quasi fœnum ita arescet ?
13 And have you forgotten the Lord, your Maker, who extended the heavens, and who founded the earth? And have you been in constant dread, all day long, at the face of his fury, of the one who afflicted you and who had prepared to destroy you? Where is the fury of the oppressor now?	13 Et oblitus es Domini, factoris tui, qui tetendit cælos et fundavit terram ; et formidasti jugiter tota die a facie furoris ejus qui te tribulabat, et paraverat ad perdendum. Ubi nunc est furor tribulantis ?
14 Advancing quickly, he will arrive to be revealed, and he will not kill unto utter destruction, nor will his bread fail.	14 Cito veniet gradiens ad aperiendum ; et non interficiet usque ad internecionem, nec deficiet panis ejus.
15 But I am the Lord, your God, who stirs up the sea, and who makes the waves swell. The Lord of hosts is my name.	15 Ego autem sum Dominus Deus tuus, qui conturbo mare, et intumescunt fluctus ejus : Dominus exercituum nomen meum.
16 I have placed my words in your mouth, and I have protected you in the shadow of my hand, so that you might plant the heavens, and found the earth, and so that you might say to Zion, “You are my people.”	16 Posui verba mea in ore tuo, et in umbra manus meæ protexi te, ut plantes cælos, et fundes terram, et dicas ad Sion : Populus meus es tu.
17 Lift up, Lift up! Arise, O Jerusalem! You drank, from the hand of the Lord, the cup of his wrath. You drank, even to the bottom of the cup of deep sleep. And you were given to drink, all the way to the dregs.	17 Elevare, elevare, consurge, Jerusalem, quæ bibisti de manu Domini calicem iræ ejus ; usque ad fundum calicis soporis bibisti, et potasti usque ad fæces.
18 There is no one who can uphold her, out of all the sons whom she has conceived. And there is no one who would take her by the hand, out of all the sons whom she has raised.	18 Non est qui sustentet eam, ex omnibus filiis quos genuit ; et non est qui apprehendat manum ejus, ex omnibus filiis quos enutrivit.
19 There are two things which have happened to you. Who will be saddened over you? There is devastation and destruction, and famine and sword. Who will console you?	19 Duo sunt quæ occurrerunt tibi ; quis contristabitur super te ? Vastitas, et contritio, et fames, et gladius ; quis consolabitur te ?
20 Your sons have been cast out. They have slept at the head of all the roads, and they have been ensnared like a gazelle. They have been filled by the indignation of the Lord, by the rebuke of your God.	20 Filii tui projecti sunt, dormierunt in capite omnium viarum sicut oryx illaqueatus, pleni indignatione Domini, increpatione Dei tui.
21 Therefore, listen to this, O poor little ones, and you who have been inebriated, but not by wine.	21 Idcirco audi hoc, paupercula, et ebria non a vino.
22 Thus says your Sovereign, the Lord, and your God, who will fight on behalf of his people: Behold, I have taken the cup of deep sleep from your hand. You shall no longer drink from the bottom of the cup of my indignation.	22 Hæc dicit dominator tuus Dominus, et Deus tuus, qui pugnabit pro populo suo : Ecce tuli de manu tua calicem soporis, fundum calicis indignationis meæ : non adjicies ut bibas illum ultra.
23 And I will set it in the hand of those who have humiliated you, and who have said to your soul: “Bow down, so that we pass over.” And you placed your body on the ground, as a path for them to pass over.	23 Et ponam illum in manu eorum qui te humiliaverunt, et dixerunt animæ tuæ : Incurvare, ut transeamus ; et posuisti ut terram corpus tuum, et quasi viam transeuntibus.
