Isaiæ 13

VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Onus Babylonis, quod vidit Isaias, filius Amos.	1 The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see.
2 Super montem caliginosum levate signum : exaltate vocem, levate manum, et ingrediantur portas duces.	2 Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them, shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
3 Ego mandavi sanctificatis meis, et vocavi fortes meos in ira mea, exsultantes in gloria mea.	3 I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness.
4 Vox multitudinis in montibus, quasi populorum frequentium ; vox sonitus regum, gentium congregatarum. Dominus exercituum præcepit militiæ belli,	4 The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
5 venientibus de terra procul, a summitate cæli ; Dominus, et vasa furoris ejus, ut disperdat omnem terram.	5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
6 Ululate, quia prope est dies Domini ; quasi vastitas a Domino veniet.	6 Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
7 Propter hoc omnes manus dissolventur, et omne cor hominis contabescet,	7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:
8 et conteretur. Torsiones et dolores tenebunt ; quasi parturiens dolebunt : unusquisque ad proximum suum stupebit, facies combustæ vultus eorum.	8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.
9 Ecce dies Domini veniet, crudelis, et indignationis plenus, et iræ, furorisque, ad ponendam terram in solitudinem, et peccatores ejus conterendos de ea.	9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
10 Quoniam stellæ cæli, et splendor earum, non expandent lumen suum ; obtenebratus est sol in ortu suo, et luna non splendebit in lumine suo.	10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
11 Et visitabo super orbis mala, et contra impios iniquitatem eorum ; et quiescere faciam superbiam infidelium, et arrogantiam fortium humiliabo.	11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
12 Pretiosior erit vir auro, et homo mundo obrizo.	12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.
13 Super hoc cælum turbabo ; et movebitur terra de loco suo, propter indignationem Domini exercituum, et propter diem iræ furoris ejus.	13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
14 Et erit quasi damula fugiens, et quasi ovis, et non erit qui congreget. Unusquisque ad populum suum convertetur, et singuli ad terram suam fugient.	14 And it shall be as the chased roe, and as a sheep that no man taketh up: they shall every man turn to his own people, and flee every one into his own land.
15 Omnis qui inventus fuerit occidetur, et omnis qui supervenerit cadet in gladio ;	15 Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword.
16 infantes eorum allidentur in oculis eorum, diripientur domus eorum, et uxores eorum violabuntur.	16 Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
17 Ecce ego suscitabo super eos Medos, qui argentum non quærant, nec aurum velint ;	17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.
18 sed sagittis parvulos interficient, et lactantibus uteris non miserebuntur, et super filios non parcet oculus eorum.	18 Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children.
19 Et erit Babylon illa gloriosa in regnis, inclyta superbia Chaldæorum, sicut subvertit Dominus Sodomam et Gomorrham.	19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
20 Non habitabitur usque in finem, et non fundabitur usque ad generationem et generationem ; nec ponet ibi tentoria Arabs, nec pastores requiescent ibi.	20 It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there.
21 Sed requiescent ibi bestiæ, et replebuntur domus eorum draconibus, et habitabunt ibi struthiones, et pilosi saltabunt ibi ;	21 But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their houses shall be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there.
22 et respondebunt ibi ululæ in ædibus ejus, et sirenes in delubris voluptatis.	22 And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their desolate houses, and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged.
