Isaiah 56

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
1 Thus says the LORD: Observe what is right, do what is just; for my salvation is about to come, my justice, about to be revealed.	1 Hæc dicit Dominus : Custodite judicium, et facite justitiam, quia juxta est salus mea ut veniat, et justitia mea ut reveletur.
2 Happy is the man who does this, the son of man who holds to it; Who keeps the sabbath free from profanation, and his hand from any evildoing.	2 Beatus vir qui facit hoc, et filius hominis qui apprehendet istud, custodiens sabbatum ne polluat illud, custodiens manus suas ne faciat omne malum.
3 Let not the foreigner say, when he would join himself to the LORD, "The LORD will surely exclude me from his people"; Nor let the eunuch say, "See, I am a dry tree."	3 Et non dicat filius advenæ qui adhæret Domino, dicens : Separatione dividet me Dominus a populo suo ; et non dicat eunuchus : Ecce ego lignum aridum.
4 For thus says the LORD: To the eunuchs who observe my sabbaths and choose what pleases me and hold fast to my covenant,	4 Quia hæc dicit Dominus eunuchis : Qui custodierint sabbata mea, et elegerint quæ ego volui, et tenuerint fœdus meum,
5 I will give, in my house and within my walls, a monument and a name Better than sons and daughters; an eternal, imperishable name will I give them.	5 dabo eis in domo mea et in muris meis locum, et nomen melius a filiis et filiabus : nomen sempiternum dabo eis, quod non peribit.
6 And the foreigners who join themselves to the LORD, ministering to him, Loving the name of the LORD, and becoming his servants-- All who keep the sabbath free from profanation and hold to my covenant,	6 Et filios advenæ, qui adhærent Domino, ut colant eum, et diligant nomen ejus, ut sint ei in servos ; omnem custodientem sabbatum ne polluat illud, et tenentem fœdus meum ;
7 Them I will bring to my holy mountain and make joyful in my house of prayer; Their holocausts and sacrifices will be acceptable on my altar, For my house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.	7 adducam eos in montem sanctum meum, et lætificabo eos in domo orationis meæ ; holocausta eorum et victimæ eorum placebunt mihi super altari meo, quia domus mea domus orationis vocabitur cunctis populis.
8 Thus says the Lord GOD, who gathers the dispersed of Israel: Others will I gather to him besides those already gathered.	8 Ait Dominus Deus, qui congregat dispersos Israël : Adhuc congregabo ad eum congregatos ejus.
9 All you wild beasts of the field, come and eat, all you beasts in the forest!	9 Omnes bestiæ agri, venite ad devorandum, universæ bestiæ saltus.
10 My watchmen are blind, all of them unaware; They are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; Dreaming as they lie there, loving their sleep.	10 Speculatores ejus cæci omnes ; nescierunt universi : canes muti non valentes latrare, videntes vana, dormientes, et amantes somnia.
11 They are relentless dogs, they know not when they have enough. These are the shepherds who know no discretion; Each of them goes his own way, every one of them to his own gain:	11 Et canes imprudentissimi nescierunt saturitatem ; ipsi pastores ignoraverunt intelligentiam : omnes in viam suam declinaverunt ; unusquisque ad avaritiam suam, a summo usque ad novissimum.
12 "Come, I will fetch some wine; let us carouse with strong drink, And tomorrow will be like today, or even greater."	12 Venite, sumamus vinum, et impleamur ebrietate ; et erit sicut hodie, sic et cras, et multo amplius.
