Isaia 32

NOVA VULGATA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Ecce in iustitia regnabit rex, et principes in iudicio praee runt.	1 Behold, the king will reign in justice, and the princes will rule in judgment.
2 Et erit vir sicut latibulum a vento et refugium a tempestate, sicut rivi aquarum in sitiente terra et umbra petrae magnae in terra arida.	2 And a man will be like someone hidden from the wind, who conceals himself from a storm, or like rivers of waters in a time of thirst, or like the shadow of a rock that juts out in a desert land.
3 Non caligabunt oculi videntium, et aures audientium diligenter auscultabunt,	3 The eyes of those who see will not be obscured, and the ears of those who hear will listen closely.
4 et cor stultorum intelleget scientiam, et lingua balborum velociter loquetur et plane.	4 And the heart of the foolish will understand knowledge, and the tongue of those with impaired speech will speak quickly and plainly.
5 Non vocabitur ultra is, qui insipiens est, nobilis, neque fraudulentus appellabitur maior;	5 He who is foolish will no longer be called leader, nor will the deceitful be called greater.
6 stultus enim fatua loquitur, et cor eius cogitat iniquitatem, ut perficiat impietatem et loquatur contra Dominum errores et vacuam faciat animam esurientem et potum sitienti auferat.	6 For a foolish man speaks foolishness and his heart works iniquity in order to accomplish deception. And he speaks to the Lord deceitfully, so as to empty the soul of the hungry and to take away drink from the thirsty.
7 Fraudulenti fraudes pessimae sunt; ipse enim cogitationes concinnat ad perdendos mites in sermone mendaci, etiam quando pauper iudicium vindicat.	7 The tools of the deceitful are very wicked. For they have concocted plans to destroy the meek by lying words, though the poor speak judgment.
8 Nobilis vero consilia nobilia dat et ipse ad nobilia assurget.	8 Yet truly, the prince will plan things that are worthy of a prince, and he will stand above the rulers.
9 Mulieres vanae, surgite, audite vocem meam; filiae confidentes, percipite auribus eloquium meum.	9 You opulent women, rise up and listen to my voice! O confident daughters, play close attention to my eloquence!
10 Post dies enim et annum vos pavebitis confidentes; consummata est enim vindemia, collectio ultra non veniet.	10 For after a year and some days, you who are confident will be disturbed. For the vintage has been completed; the gathering will no longer occur.
11 Obstupescite, vanae; pavete, confidentes, exuite vos et nudate vos, accingite lumbos vestros.	11 Be stupefied, you opulent women! Be disturbed, O confident ones! Strip yourselves, and be confounded; gird yourselves at the waist.
12 Super ubera plangite, super regione desiderabili, super vinea fertili.	12 Mourn over your breasts, over the delightful country, over the fruitful vineyard.
13 Super humum populi mei spinae et vepres ascendent, super omnes domos gaudii, super civitatem exsultantem.	13 Thorn and brier will rise up, over the soil of my people. How much more over all the houses of gladness, over the city of exultation?
14 Domus enim dimissa est; multitudo urbis relicta est, Ophel et Bahan erunt speluncae usque in aeternum, gaudium onagrorum, pascua gregum,	14 For the house has been forsaken. The multitude of the city has been abandoned. A darkness and a covering have been placed over its dens, even unto eternity. It will be the gladness of wild donkeys and the pasture of flocks,
15 donec effundatur super nos spiritus de excelso. Et erit desertum in hortum, et hortus in saltum reputabitur,	15 until the Spirit is poured over us from on high. And the desert will be a fruitful field, and the fruitful field will be considered as a forest.
16 et habitabit in solitudine iudicium, et iustitia in horto sedebit;	16 And judgment will live in solitude, and justice will be seated in a fruitful place.
17 et erit opus iustitiae pax, et cultus iustitiae silentium, et securitas usque in sempiternum.	17 And the work of justice will be peace. And the service of justice will be quiet and secure, forever.
18 Et sedebit populus meus in habitatione pacis et in tabernaculis fiduciae et in locis securis.	18 And my people will be seated in the beauty of peacefulness, and in the tabernacles of faithfulness, and in the opulence of restfulness.
19 Et penitus cadet saltus, et profunde deprimetur civitas.	19 But hail will be in the descent of the forest, and the city will be brought exceedingly low.
20 Beati, qui seminatis super omnes aquas, immittentes pedem bovis et asini.	20 Blessed are you who sow over any waters, sending the feet of the ox and the donkey there.
