Isaiæ 17

VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Onus Damasci. Ecce Damascus desinet esse civitas, et erit sicut acervus lapidum in ruina.	1 The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.
2 Derelictæ civitates Aroër gregibus erunt, et requiescent ibi, et non erit qui exterreat.	2 The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
3 Et cessabit adjutorium ab Ephraim, et regnum a Damasco ; et reliquiæ Syriæ sicut gloria filiorum Israël erunt, dicit Dominus exercituum.	3 The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith the LORD of hosts.
4 Et erit in die illa : attenuabitur gloria Jacob, et pinguedo carnis ejus marcescet.	4 And in that day it shall come to pass, that the glory of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax lean.
5 Et erit sicut congregans in messe quod restiterit, et brachium ejus spicas leget ; et erit sicut quærens spicas in valle Raphaim.	5 And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the corn, and reapeth the ears with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth ears in the valley of Rephaim.
6 Et relinquetur in eo sicut racemus et sicut excussio oleæ duarum vel trium olivarum in summitate rami, sive quatuor aut quinque in cacuminibus ejus fructus ejus, dicit Dominus Deus Israël.	6 Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel.
7 In die illa inclinabitur homo ad factorem suum, et oculi ejus ad Sanctum Israël respicient ;	7 At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel.
8 et non inclinabitur ad altaria quæ fecerunt manus ejus ; et quæ operati sunt digiti ejus non respiciet lucos et delubra.	8 And he shall not look to the altars, the work of his hands, neither shall respect that which his fingers have made, either the groves, or the images.
9 In die illa erunt civitates fortitudinis ejus derelictæ sicut aratra, et segetes quæ derelictæ sunt a facie filiorum Israël ; et eris deserta.	9 In that day shall his strong cities be as a forsaken bough, and an uppermost branch, which they left because of the children of Israel: and there shall be desolation.
10 Quia oblitus es Dei salvatoris tui, et fortis adjutoris tui non es recordata : propterea plantabis plantationem fidelem, et germen alienum seminabis ;	10 Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not been mindful of the rock of thy strength, therefore shalt thou plant pleasant plants, and shalt set it with strange slips:
11 in die plantationis tuæ labrusca, et mane semen tuum florebit ; ablata est messis in die hæreditatis, et dolebit graviter.	11 In the day shalt thou make thy plant to grow, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seed to flourish: but the harvest shall be a heap in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.
12 Væ multitudini populorum multorum, ut multitudo maris sonantis ; et tumultus turbarum, sicut sonitus aquarum multarum.	12 Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise of the seas; and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters!
13 Sonabunt populi sicut sonitus aquarum inundantium, et increpabit eum, et fugiet procul ; et rapietur sicut pulvis montium a facie venti, et sicut turbo coram tempestate.	13 The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters: but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the whirlwind.
14 In tempore vespere, et ecce turbatio ; in matutino, et non subsistet. Hæc est pars eorum qui vastaverunt nos, et sors diripientium nos.	14 And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not. This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us.
