Isaiah 25

KING JAMES BIBLEVULGATA
1 O LORD, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.1 Domine, Deus meus es tu ;
exaltabo te, et confitebor nomini tuo :
quoniam fecisti mirabilia,
cogitationes antiquas fideles. Amen.
2 For thou hast made of a city an heap; of a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built.2 Quia posuisti civitatem in tumulum,
urbem fortem in ruinam, domum alienorum :
ut non sit civitas,
et in sempiternum non ædificetur.
3 Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee.3 Super hoc laudabit te populus fortis ;
civitas gentium robustarum timebit te :
4 For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.4 quia factus es fortitudo pauperi,
fortitudo egeno in tribulatione sua,
spes a turbine,
umbraculum ab æstu ;
spiritus enim robustorum
quasi turbo impellens parietem.
5 Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers, as the heat in a dry place; even the heat with the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought low.5 Sicut æstus in siti,
tumultum alienorum humiliabis ;
et quasi calore sub nube torrente,
propaginem fortium marcescere facies.
6 And in this mountain shall the LORD of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.6 Et faciet Dominus exercituum
omnibus populis in monte hoc
convivium pinguium,
convivium vindemiæ,
pinguium medullatorum,
vindemiæ defæcatæ.
7 And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the vail that is spread over all nations.7 Et præcipitabit in monte isto
faciem vinculi colligati super omnes populos,
et telam quam orditus est super omnes nationes.
8 He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it.8 Præcipitabit mortem in sempiternum ;
et auferet Dominus Deus
lacrimam ab omni facie,
et opprobrium populi sui auferet
de universa terra :
quia Dominus locutus est.
9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.9 Et dicet in die illa :
Ecce Deus noster iste ;
exspectavimus eum, et salvabit nos ;
iste Dominus, sustinuimus eum :
exsultabimus, et lætabimur in salutari ejus.
10 For in this mountain shall the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill.10 Quia requiescet manus Domini
in monte isto ;
et triturabitur Moab sub eo,
sicuti teruntur paleæ in plaustro.
11 And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst of them, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down their pride together with the spoils of their hands.11 Et extendet manus suas sub eo
sicut extendit natans ad natandum ;
et humiliabit gloriam ejus
cum allisione manuum ejus.
12 And the fortress of the high fort of thy walls shall he bring down, lay low, and bring to the ground, even to the dust.12 Et munimenta sublimium murorum tuorum
concident, et humiliabuntur,
et detrahentur in terram usque ad pulverem.
