Isaiah 34


font
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition VULGATA
1 Draw near, O nations, to hear, and hearken, O peoples! Let the earth listen, and all that fills it; the world, and all that comes from it.1 Accedite, gentes, et audite ;
et populi, attendite :
audiat terra, et plenitudo ejus ;
orbis, et omne germen ejus.
2 For the LORD is enraged against all the nations, and furious against all their host, he has doomed them, has given them over for slaughter.2 Quia indignatio Domini super omnes gentes,
et furor super universam militiam eorum :
interfecit eos, et dedit eos in occisionem.
3 Their slain shall be cast out, and the stench of their corpses shall rise; the mountains shall flow with their blood.3 Interfecti eorum projicientur,
et de cadaveribus eorum ascendet fœtor ;
tabescent montes a sanguine eorum.
4 All the host of heaven shall rot away, and the skies roll up like a scroll. All their host shall fall, as leaves fall from the vine, like leaves falling from the fig tree.4 Et tabescet omnis militia cælorum,
et complicabuntur sicut liber cæli :
et omnis militia eorum defluet,
sicut defluit folium de vinea et de ficu.
5 For my sword has drunk its fill in the heavens; behold, it descends for judgment upon Edom, upon the people I have doomed.5 Quoniam inebriatus est in cælo gladius meus ;
ecce super Idumæam descendet,
et super populum interfectionis meæ, ad judicium.
6 The LORD has a sword; it is sated with blood, it is gorged with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams. For the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah, a great slaughter in the land of Edom.6 Gladius Domini repletus est sanguine,
incrassatus est adipe,
de sanguine agnorum et hircorum,
de sanguine medullatorum arietum :
victima enim Domini in Bosra,
et interfectio magna in terra Edom.
7 Wild oxen shall fall with them, and young steers with the mighty bulls. Their land shall be soaked with blood, and their soil made rich with fat.7 Et descendent unicornes cum eis,
et tauri cum potentibus ;
inebriabitur terra eorum sanguine,
et humus eorum adipe pinguium.
8 For the LORD has a day of vengeance, a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.8 Quia dies ultionis Domini,
annus retributionum judicii Sion.
9 And the streams of Edom shall be turned into pitch, and her soil into brimstone; her land shall become burning pitch.9 Et convertentur torrentes ejus in picem,
et humus ejus in sulphur ;
et erit terra ejus in picem ardentem.
10 Night and day it shall not be quenched; its smoke shall go up for ever. From generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.10 Nocte et die non extinguetur,
in sempiternum ascendet fumus ejus,
a generatione in generationem desolabitur,
in sæcula sæculorum non erit transiens per eam.
11 But the hawk and the porcupine shall possess it, the owl and the raven shall dwell in it. He shall stretch the line of confusion over it, and the plummet of chaos over its nobles.11 Et possidebunt illam onocrotalus et ericius ;
ibis et corvus habitabunt in ea :
et extendetur super eam mensura, ut redigatur ad nihilum,
et perpendiculum in desolationem.
12 They shall name it No Kingdom There, and all its princes shall be nothing.12 Nobiles ejus non erunt ibi ; regem potius invocabunt,
et omnes principes ejus erunt in nihilum.
13 Thorns shall grow over its strongholds, nettles and thistles in its fortresses. It shall be the haunt of jackals, an abode for ostriches.13 Et orientur in domibus ejus spinæ et urticæ,
et paliurus in munitionibus ejus ;
et erit cubile draconum,
et pascua struthionum.
14 And wild beasts shall meet with hyenas, the satyr shall cry to his fellow; yea, there shall the night hag alight, and find for herself a resting place.14 Et occurrent dæmonia onocentauris,
et pilosus clamabit alter ad alterum ;
ibi cubavit lamia,
et invenit sibi requiem.
15 There shall the owl nest and lay and hatch and gather her young in her shadow; yea, there shall the kites be gathered, each one with her mate.15 Ibi habuit foveam ericius, et enutrivit catulos,
et circumfodit, et fovit in umbra ejus ;
illuc congregati sunt milvi, alter ad alterum.
16 Seek and read from the book of the LORD: Not one of these shall be missing; none shall be without her mate. For the mouth of the LORD has commanded, and his Spirit has gathered them.16 Requirite diligenter in libro Domini, et legite :
Unum ex eis non defuit,
alter alterum non quæsivit ;
quia quod ex ore meo procedit, ille mandavit,
et spiritus ejus ipse congregavit ea.
17 He has cast the lot for them, his hand has portioned it out to them with the line; they shall possess it for ever, from generation to generation they shall dwell in it.17 Et ipse misit eis sortem,
et manus ejus divisit eam illis in mensuram :
usque in æternum possidebunt eam ;
in generationem et generationem habitabunt in ea.
