Isaiah 56

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	NOVA VULGATA
1 Thus says the Lord: Preserve judgment, and accomplish justice. For my salvation is close to its arrival, and my justice is close to being revealed.	1 Haec dicit Dominus: “ Custodite iudicium et facite iustitiam, quia iuxta est salus mea, ut veniat, et iustitia mea, ut reveletur ”.
2 Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds to this, keeping the Sabbath and not profaning it, guarding his hands and not doing any evil.	2 Beatus vir, qui facit hoc, et filius hominis, qui apprehendit istud, custodiens sabbatum, ne polluat illud, custodiens manum suam, ne faciat omne malum.
3 And let not the son of the new arrival, who adheres to the Lord, speak, saying, “The Lord will divide and separate me from his people.” And let not the eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dry tree.”	3 Et non dicat filius advenae, qui adhaeret 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: They will keep my Sabbaths, and they will choose the things that I will, and they will hold to my covenant.	4 Quia haec dicit Dominus eunuchis: “ Qui custodierint sabbata mea et elegerint, quae ego volui, et tenuerint foedus meum,
5 I will give them a place in my house, within my walls, and a name better than sons and daughters. I will give them an everlasting name, which will never perish.	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 sons of the new arrival, who adhere to the Lord so as to worship him and to love his name, shall be his servants: all who keep the Sabbath without profaning it, and who hold to my covenant.	6 Et filios advenae, qui adhaerent Domino, ut colant eum, ut diligant nomen Domini, ut sint ei in servos, omnes custodientes sabbatum, ne polluant illud, et tenentes foedus meum,
7 I will lead them to my holy mountain, and I will gladden them in my house of prayer. Their holocausts and their victims will be pleasing to me upon my altar. For my house will be called the house of prayer for all peoples.	7 adducam eos in montem sanctum meum et laetificabo eos in domo orationis meae: holocausta eorum et victimae eorum placebunt mihi super altari meo, quia domus mea domus orationis vocabitur cunctis populis ”.
8 The Lord God, who gathers the dispersed of Israel, says: Even now, I will gather his congregation to him.	8 Ait Dominus Deus, qui congregat dispersos Israel: “ Adhuc congregabo ad eum praeter congregatos eius ”.
9 All beasts of the field, all the beasts of the forest: approach and devour!	9 Omnes bestiae agri, venite ad devorandum, universae bestiae saltus.
10 His watchmen are all blind. They are all ignorant. They are mute dogs without the ability to bark, seeing empty things, sleeping and loving dreams.	10 Speculatores eius caeci, omnes nescierunt; universi sunt canes muti non valentes latrare, insanientes, cubantes, amantes soporem;
11 And these very imprudent dogs have never known satisfaction. The shepherds themselves do not know understanding. All have turned aside in their own way, each one to his own avarice, from the highest even to the least:	11 et canes voraces nescierunt saturitatem, ipsi pastores ignoraverunt intellegentiam: omnes in viam suam declinaverunt, unusquisque ad avaritiam suam, a summo usque ad novissimum.
12 “Come, let us take wine, and be filled by inebriation. And as it is today, so shall it be tomorrow and for a long time.”	12 “ Venite, sumam vinum, et impleamur ebrietate; et cras erit sicut hodie et multo amplius ”.
