Isaiæ 27

VULGATA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 In die illa visitabit Dominus in gladio suo duro, et grandi, et forti, super Leviathan, serpentem vectem, et super Leviathan, serpentem tortuosum, et occidet cetum qui in mari est.	1 In that day, the Lord will visit, with his harsh and great and strong sword, against Leviathan, the barred serpent, and against Leviathan, the twisted serpent, and he will slay the whale that is in the sea.
2 In die illa vinea meri cantabit ei.	2 In that day, the vineyard of pure wine will sing to them.
3 Ego Dominus qui servo eam ; repente propinabo ei. Ne forte visitetur contra eam, nocte et die servo eam.	3 I am the Lord, who watches over it. I will suddenly give drink to it. I will watch over it, night and day, lest perhaps someone visit against it.
4 Indignatio non est mihi. Quis dabit me spinam et veprem in prælio ? gradiar super eam, succendam eam pariter.	4 Indignation is not mine. Who will be a thorn and a brier to me in battle? I will advance against them. I set them on fire together.
5 An potius tenebit fortitudinem meam ? faciet pacem mihi, pacem faciet mihi.	5 Or will he, instead, take hold of my strength? Will he make peace with me? Will she make peace with me?
6 Qui ingrediuntur impetu ad Jacob, florebit et germinabit Israël, et implebunt faciem orbis semine.	6 As they advance with violence against Jacob, Israel will flourish and spring forth, and they will fill the face of the world with offspring.
7 Numquid juxta plagam percutientis se percussit eum ? aut sicut occidit interfectos ejus, sic occisus est ?	7 Has he struck him with the scourge that he himself used to strike others? Or has he killed in the manner that he himself used to kill his victims?
8 In mensura contra mensuram, cum abjecta fuerit, judicabis eam ; meditatus est in spiritu suo duro per diem æstus.	8 You will judge this by comparing one measure to another, when he has been cast out. He has decided this, by his stern spirit, for the day of heat.
9 Idcirco super hoc dimittetur iniquitas domui Jacob ; et iste omnis fructus : ut auferatur peccatum ejus, cum posuerit omnes lapides altaris sicut lapides cineris allisos : non stabunt luci et delubra.	9 Therefore, concerning this, the iniquity of the house of Jacob will be forgiven. And this is the reward of all: that their sin be taken away, when he will have made all the stones of the altar to be like crushed cinders. For the sacred groves and the shrines shall not stand.
10 Civitas enim munita desolata erit ; speciosa relinquetur, et dimittetur quasi desertum ; ibi pascetur vitulus, et ibi accubabit, et consumet summitates ejus.	10 For the fortified city will be desolate. The shining city will be abandoned and will be left behind like a desert. In that place, the calf will pasture, and in that place, he will lie down, and he will feed from its summits.
11 In siccitate messes illius conterentur. Mulieres venientes, et docentes eam ; non est enim populus sapiens : propterea non miserebitur ejus qui fecit eum, et qui formavit eum non parcet ei.	11 Its harvest will be crushed by dryness. Women will arrive and teach it, for it is not a wise people. Because of this, he who made it will not take pity on it, and he who formed it will not spare it.
12 Et erit : in die illa percutiet Dominus ab alveo fluminis usque ad torrentem Ægypti ; et vos congregabimini unus et unus, filii Israël.	12 And this shall be: in that day, the Lord will strike, from the channel of the river, even to the torrent of Egypt. And you shall be gathered together, one by one, O sons of Israel.
13 Et erit : in die illa clangetur in tuba magna ; et venient qui perditi fuerant de terra Assyriorum, et qui ejecti erant in terra Ægypti, et adorabunt Dominum in monte sancto in Jerusalem.	13 And this shall be: in that day, a noise will be made with a great trumpet. And those who had been lost will approach from the land of the Assyrians, with those who had been outcasts in the land of Egypt. And they will adore the Lord, on the holy mountain, in Jerusalem.
