Isaiah 22

KING JAMES BIBLEVULGATA
1 The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops?1 Onus vallis Visionis. Quidnam quoque tibi est, quia ascendisti
et tu omnis in tecta ?
2 Thou that art full of stirs, a tumultuous city, a joyous city: thy slain men are not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle.2 Clamoris plena, urbs frequens,
civitas exsultans ;
interfecti tui, non interfecti gladio,
nec mortui in bello.
3 All thy rulers are fled together, they are bound by the archers: all that are found in thee are bound together, which have fled from far.3 Cuncti principes tui fugerunt simul
dureque ligati sunt ;
omnes qui inventi sunt vincti sunt pariter ;
procul fugerunt.
4 Therefore said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly, labour not to comfort me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people.4 Propterea dixi : Recedite a me :
amare flebo ;
nolite incumbere ut consolemini me
super vastitate filiæ populi mei ;
5 For it is a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by the Lord GOD of hosts in the valley of vision, breaking down the walls, and of crying to the mountains.5 dies enim interfectionis,
et conculcationis, et fletuum,
Domino Deo exercituum,
in valle Visionis,
scrutans murum,
et magnificus super montem.
6 And Elam bare the quiver with chariots of men and horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.6 Et Ælam sumpsit pharetram,
currum hominis equitis,
et parietem nudavit clypeus.
7 And it shall come to pass, that thy choicest valleys shall be full of chariots, and the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate.7 Et erunt electæ valles tuæ plenæ quadrigarum,
et equites ponent sedes suas in porta.
8 And he discovered the covering of Judah, and thou didst look in that day to the armour of the house of the forest.8 Et revelabitur operimentum Judæ,
et videbis in die illa
armamentarium domus saltus.
9 Ye have seen also the breaches of the city of David, that they are many: and ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool.9 Et scissuras civitatis David videbitis,
quia multiplicatæ sunt ;
et congregastis aquas piscinæ inferioris,
10 And ye have numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses have ye broken down to fortify the wall.10 et domos Jerusalem numerastis,
et destruxistis domos ad muniendum murum.
11 Ye made also a ditch between the two walls for the water of the old pool: but ye have not looked unto the maker thereof, neither had respect unto him that fashioned it long ago.11 Et lacum fecistis inter duos muros
ad aquam piscinæ veteris ;
et non suspexistis ad eum qui fecerat eam,
et operatorem ejus de longe non vidistis.
12 And in that day did the Lord GOD of hosts call to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth:12 Et vocabit Dominus Deus exercituum
in die illa
ad fletum, et ad planctum,
ad calvitium, et ad cingulum sacci ;
13 And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die.13 et ecce gaudium et lætitia,
occidere vitulos et jugulare arietes,
comedere carnes, et bibere vinum :
comedamus et bibamus,
cras enim moriemur.
14 And it was revealed in mine ears by the LORD of hosts, Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord GOD of hosts.14 Et revelata est in auribus meis vox Domini exercituum :
Si dimittetur iniquitas hæc vobis donec moriamini,
dicit Dominus Deus exercituum.
15 Thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto Shebna, which is over the house, and say,15 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus exercituum :
Vade, ingredere ad eum qui habitat in tabernaculo,
ad Sobnam, præpositum templi, et dices ad eum :
16 What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee out a sepulchre here, as he that heweth him out a sepulchre on high, and that graveth an habitation for himself in a rock?16 Quid tu hic, aut quasi quis hic ?
quia excidisti tibi hic sepulchrum,
excidisti in excelso memoriale diligenter,
in petra tabernaculum tibi.
17 Behold, the LORD will carry thee away with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover thee.17 Ecce Dominus asportari te faciet,
sicut asportatur gallus gallinaceus ;
et quasi amictum, sic sublevabit te.
18 He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall be the shame of thy lord's house.18 Coronas coronabit te tribulatione ;
quasi pilam mittet te in terram latam et spatiosam ;
ibi morieris, et ibi erit currus gloriæ tuæ,
ignominia domus domini tui.
19 And I will drive thee from thy station, and from thy state shall he pull thee down.19 Et expellam te de statione tua,
et de ministerio tuo deponam te.
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:20 Et erit in die illa :
vocabo servum meum Eliacim, filium Helciæ,
21 And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.21 et induam illum tunica tua,
et cingulo tuo confortabo eum,
et potestatem tuam dabo in manu ejus ;
et erit quasi pater habitantibus Jerusalem
et domui Juda.
22 And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.22 Et dabo clavem domus David
super humerum ejus ;
et aperiet, et non erit qui claudat ;
et claudet, et non erit qui aperiat.
23 And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father's house.23 Et figam illum paxillum in loco fideli,
et erit in solium gloriæ domui patris ejus.
24 And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups, even to all the vessels of flagons.24 Et suspendent super eum omnem gloriam domus patris ejus ;
vasorum diversa genera,
omne vas parvulum,
a vasis craterarum usque ad omne vas musicorum.
25 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off: for the LORD hath spoken it.25 In die illa, dicit Dominus exercituum,
auferetur paxillus qui fixus fuerat in loco fideli,
et frangetur, et cadet,
et peribit quod pependerat in eo,
quia Dominus locutus est.
