Isaiæ 43

VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Et nunc hæc dicit Dominus creans te, Jacob, et formans te, Israël : Noli timere, quia redemi te, et vocavi te nomine tuo : meus es tu.	1 But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.
2 Cum transieris per aquas, tecum ero, et flumina non operient te ; cum ambulaveris in igne, non combureris, et flamma non ardebit in te.	2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
3 Quia ego Dominus Deus tuus, Sanctus Israël, salvator tuus, dedi propitiationem tuam Ægyptum, Æthopiam, et Saba, pro te.	3 For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
4 Ex quo honorabilis factus es in oculis meis, et gloriosus, ego dilexi te, et dabo homines pro te, et populos pro anima tua.	4 Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.
5 Noli timere, quia ego tecum sum ; ab oriente adducam semen tuum, et ab occidente congregabo te.	5 Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;
6 Dicam aquiloni : Da ; et austro : Noli prohibere : affer filios meos de longinquo, et filias meas ab extremis terræ.	6 I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
7 Et omnem qui invocat nomen meum, in gloriam meam creavi eum, formavi eum, et feci eum.	7 Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
8 Educ foras populum cæcum, et oculos habentem ; surdum, et aures ei sunt.	8 Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
9 Omnes gentes congregatæ sunt simul, et collectæ sunt tribus. Quis in vobis annuntiet istud, et quæ prima sunt audire nos faciet ? Dent testes eorum, justificentur, et audiant, et dicant : Vere.	9 Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth.
10 Vos testes mei, dicit Dominus, et servus meus quem elegi : ut sciatis, et credatis mihi, et intelligatis quia ego ipse sum ; ante me non est formatus Deus, et post me non erit.	10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
11 Ego sum, ego sum Dominus, et non est absque me salvator.	11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.
12 Ego annuntiavi, et salvavi ; auditum feci, et non fuit in vobis alienus : vos testes mei, dicit Dominus, et ego Deus.	12 I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God.
13 Et ab initio ego ipse, et non est qui de manu mea eruat. Operabor, et quis avertet illud ?	13 Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?
14 Hæc dicit Dominus, redemptor vester, Sanctus Israël : Propter vos misi in Babylonem, et detraxi vectes universos, et Chaldæos in navibus suis gloriantes.	14 Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships.
15 Ego Dominus, Sanctus vester, creans Israël, rex vester.	15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King.
16 Hæc dicit Dominus, qui dedit in mari viam, et in aquis torrentibus semitam ;	16 Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
17 qui eduxit quadrigam et equum, agmen et robustum : simul obdormierunt, nec resurgent ; contriti sunt quasi linum, et extincti sunt.	17 Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.
18 Ne memineritis priorum, et antiqua ne intueamini.	18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
19 Ecce ego facio nova, et nunc orientur, utique cognoscetis ea : ponam in deserto viam, et in invio flumina.	19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
20 Glorificabit me bestia agri, dracones, et struthiones : quia dedi in deserto aquas, flumina in invio, ut darem potum populo meo, electo meo.	20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.
21 Populum istum formavi mihi : laudem meam narrabit.	21 This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
22 Non me invocasti, Jacob, nec laborasti in me, Israël.	22 But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.
23 Non obtulisti mihi arietem holocausti tui, et victimis tuis non glorificasti me ; non te servire feci in oblatione, nec laborem tibi præbui in thure.	23 Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense.
24 Non emisti mihi argento calamum, et adipe victimarum tuarum non inebriasti me : verumtamen servire me fecisti in peccatis tuis ; præbuisti mihi laborem in iniquitatibus tuis.	24 Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities.
25 Ego sum, ego sum ipse qui deleo iniquitates tuas propter me, et peccatorum tuorum non recordabor.	25 I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.
26 Reduc me in memoriam, et judicemur simul : narra si quid habes ut justificeris.	26 Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.
27 Pater tuus primus peccavit, et interpretes tui prævaricati sunt in me :	27 Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.
28 et contaminavi principes sanctos ; dedi ad internecionem Jacob, et Israël in blasphemiam.	28 Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
