Isaiæ 22

VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Onus vallis Visionis. Quidnam quoque tibi est, quia ascendisti et tu omnis in tecta ?	1 The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops?
2 Clamoris plena, urbs frequens, civitas exsultans ; interfecti tui, non interfecti gladio, nec mortui in bello.	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.
3 Cuncti principes tui fugerunt simul dureque ligati sunt ; omnes qui inventi sunt vincti sunt pariter ; procul fugerunt.	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.
4 Propterea dixi : Recedite a me : amare flebo ; nolite incumbere ut consolemini me super vastitate filiæ populi mei ;	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.
5 dies enim interfectionis, et conculcationis, et fletuum, Domino Deo exercituum, in valle Visionis, scrutans murum, et magnificus super montem.	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.
6 Et Ælam sumpsit pharetram, currum hominis equitis, et parietem nudavit clypeus.	6 And Elam bare the quiver with chariots of men and horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.
7 Et erunt electæ valles tuæ plenæ quadrigarum, et equites ponent sedes suas in porta.	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.
8 Et revelabitur operimentum Judæ, et videbis in die illa armamentarium domus saltus.	8 And he discovered the covering of Judah, and thou didst look in that day to the armour of the house of the forest.
9 Et scissuras civitatis David videbitis, quia multiplicatæ sunt ; et congregastis aquas piscinæ inferioris,	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.
10 et domos Jerusalem numerastis, et destruxistis domos ad muniendum murum.	10 And ye have numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses have ye broken down to fortify the wall.
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.	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.
12 Et vocabit Dominus Deus exercituum in die illa ad fletum, et ad planctum, ad calvitium, et ad cingulum sacci ;	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:
13 et ecce gaudium et lætitia, occidere vitulos et jugulare arietes, comedere carnes, et bibere vinum : comedamus et bibamus, cras enim moriemur.	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.
14 Et revelata est in auribus meis vox Domini exercituum : Si dimittetur iniquitas hæc vobis donec moriamini, dicit Dominus Deus exercituum.	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.
15 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus exercituum : Vade, ingredere ad eum qui habitat in tabernaculo, ad Sobnam, præpositum templi, et dices ad eum :	15 Thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto Shebna, which is over the house, and say,
16 Quid tu hic, aut quasi quis hic ? quia excidisti tibi hic sepulchrum, excidisti in excelso memoriale diligenter, in petra tabernaculum tibi.	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?
17 Ecce Dominus asportari te faciet, sicut asportatur gallus gallinaceus ; et quasi amictum, sic sublevabit te.	17 Behold, the LORD will carry thee away with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover thee.
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.	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.
19 Et expellam te de statione tua, et de ministerio tuo deponam te.	19 And I will drive thee from thy station, and from thy state shall he pull thee down.
20 Et erit in die illa : vocabo servum meum Eliacim, filium Helciæ,	20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:
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.	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.
22 Et dabo clavem domus David super humerum ejus ; et aperiet, et non erit qui claudat ; et claudet, et non erit qui aperiat.	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.
23 Et figam illum paxillum in loco fideli, et erit in solium gloriæ domui patris ejus.	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.
24 Et suspendent super eum omnem gloriam domus patris ejus ; vasorum diversa genera, omne vas parvulum, a vasis craterarum usque ad omne vas musicorum.	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.
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.	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.
