ΗΣΑΙΑΣ - Isaia - Isaiah 9

LXX	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 ο λαος ο πορευομενος εν σκοτει ιδετε φως μεγα οι κατοικουντες εν χωρα και σκια θανατου φως λαμψει εφ' υμας	1 At the first time the land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephtali was lightly touched: and at the last the way of the sea beyond the Jordan of the Galilee of the Gentiles was heavily loaded.
2 το πλειστον του λαου ο κατηγαγες εν ευφροσυνη σου και ευφρανθησονται ενωπιον σου ως οι ευφραινομενοι εν αμητω και ον τροπον οι διαιρουμενοι σκυλα	2 The people that walked in darkness, have seen a great light: to them that dwelt in the region of the shadow of death, light is risen.
3 διοτι αφηρηται ο ζυγος ο επ' αυτων κειμενος και η ραβδος η επι του τραχηλου αυτων την γαρ ραβδον των απαιτουντων διεσκεδασεν κυριος ως τη ημερα τη επι μαδιαμ	3 Thou hast multiplied the nation, and hast not increased the joy. They shall rejoice before thee, as they that rejoice in the harvest, as conquerors rejoice after taking a prey, when they divide the spoils.
4 οτι πασαν στολην επισυνηγμενην δολω και ιματιον μετα καταλλαγης αποτεισουσιν και θελησουσιν ει εγενηθησαν πυρικαυστοι	4 For the yoke of their burden, and the rod of their shoulder, and the sceptre of their oppressor thou best overcome, as in the day of Median.
5 οτι παιδιον εγεννηθη ημιν υιος και εδοθη ημιν ου η αρχη εγενηθη επι του ωμου αυτου και καλειται το ονομα αυτου μεγαλης βουλης αγγελος εγω γαρ αξω ειρηνην επι τους αρχοντας ειρηνην και υγιειαν αυτω	5 For every violent taking of spoils, with tumult, and garment mingled with blood, shall be burnt, and be fuel for the fire.
6 μεγαλη η αρχη αυτου και της ειρηνης αυτου ουκ εστιν οριον επι τον θρονον δαυιδ και την βασιλειαν αυτου κατορθωσαι αυτην και αντιλαβεσθαι αυτης εν δικαιοσυνη και εν κριματι απο του νυν και εις τον αιωνα χρονον ο ζηλος κυριου σαβαωθ ποιησει ταυτα	6 For a CHILD IS BORN to us, and a son is given to us, and the government is upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called, Wonderful, Counsellor, God the Mighty, the Father of the world to come, the Prince of Peace.
7 θανατον απεστειλεν κυριος επι ιακωβ και ηλθεν επι ισραηλ	7 His empire shall be multiplied, and there shall be no end of peace: he shall sit upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom; to establish it and strengthen it with judgment and with justice, from henceforth and for ever: the zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
8 και γνωσονται πας ο λαος του εφραιμ και οι εγκαθημενοι εν σαμαρεια εφ' υβρει και υψηλη καρδια λεγοντες	8 The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.
9 πλινθοι πεπτωκασιν αλλα δευτε λαξευσωμεν λιθους και εκκοψωμεν συκαμινους και κεδρους και οικοδομησωμεν εαυτοις πυργον	9 And all the people of Ephraim shall know, and the inhabitants of Samaria that say in the pride and haughtiness of their heart:
10 και ραξει ο θεος τους επανιστανομενους επ' ορος σιων επ' αυτους και τους εχθρους αυτων διασκεδασει	10 The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with square stones: they have cut down the sycamores, but we will change them for cedars.
11 συριαν αφ' ηλιου ανατολων και τους ελληνας αφ' ηλιου δυσμων τους κατεσθιοντας τον ισραηλ ολω τω στοματι επι τουτοις πασιν ουκ απεστραφη ο θυμος αλλ' ετι η χειρ υψηλη	11 And the Lord shall set up the enemies of Rasin over him, and shall bring on his enemies in a crowd:
12 και ο λαος ουκ απεστραφη εως επληγη και τον κυριον ουκ εξεζητησαν	12 The Syrians from the east, and the Philistines from the west: and they shall devour Israel with open mouth, For all this his indignation is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
13 και αφειλεν κυριος απο ισραηλ κεφαλην και ουραν μεγαν και μικρον εν μια ημερα	13 And the people are not returned to him who hath struck them, and have not sought after the Lord of hosts.
14 πρεσβυτην και τους τα προσωπα θαυμαζοντας αυτη η αρχη και προφητην διδασκοντα ανομα ουτος η ουρα	14 And the Lord shall destroy out of Israel the head and the tail, him that bendeth down, and him that holdeth back, in one day.
15 και εσονται οι μακαριζοντες τον λαον τουτον πλανωντες και πλανωσιν οπως καταπιωσιν αυτους	15 The aged and honourable, he is the head: and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.
16 δια τουτο επι τους νεανισκους αυτων ουκ ευφρανθησεται ο θεος και τους ορφανους αυτων και τας χηρας αυτων ουκ ελεησει οτι παντες ανομοι και πονηροι και παν στομα λαλει αδικα επι πασιν τουτοις ουκ απεστραφη ο θυμος αλλ' ετι η χειρ υψηλη	16 And they that call this people blessed, shall cause them to err: and they that are called blessed, shall be thrown down headlong.
17 και καυθησεται ως πυρ η ανομια και ως αγρωστις ξηρα βρωθησεται υπο πυρος και καυθησεται εν τοις δασεσι του δρυμου και συγκαταφαγεται τα κυκλω των βουνων παντα	17 Therefore the Lord shell have no joy in their young men: neither shall he have mercy on their fatherless, and widows: for every one is a hypocrite and wicked, and every mouth hath spoken folly. For all this his indignation is not turned away, but his bend is stretched out still.
18 δια θυμον οργης κυριου συγκεκαυται η γη ολη και εσται ο λαος ως υπο πυρος κατακεκαυμενος ανθρωπος τον αδελφον αυτου ουκ ελεησει	18 For wickedness is kindled as a fire, it shall devour the brier and the thorn: and shall kindle in the thicket of the forest, and it shall be wrapped up in smoke ascending on high.
19 αλλα εκκλινει εις τα δεξια οτι πεινασει και φαγεται εκ των αριστερων και ου μη εμπλησθη ανθρωπος εσθων τας σαρκας του βραχιονος αυτου	19 By the wrath of the Lord of hosts the land is troubled, and the people shall be as fuel for the fire: no man shall spare his brother.
20 φαγεται γαρ μανασση του εφραιμ και εφραιμ του μανασση οτι αμα πολιορκησουσιν τον ιουδαν επι τουτοις πασιν ουκ απεστραφη ο θυμος αλλ' ετι η χειρ υψηλη	20 And he shall turn to the right hand, and shall be hungry: and shall eat on the left hand, and shall not be filled: every one shell eat the flesh of his own arm: Manasses Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasses, and they together shall be against Juda.
	21 After all these things his indignation is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
