Isaiæ 50

VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Hæc dicit Dominus : Quis est hic liber repudii matris vestræ, quo dimisi eam ? aut quis est creditor meus, cui vendidi vos ? Ecce in iniquitatibus vestris venditi estis, et in sceleribus vestris dimisi matrem vestram.	1 Thus saith the LORD, Where is the bill of your mother's divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities have ye sold yourselves, and for your transgressions is your mother put away.
2 Quia veni, et non erat vir ; vocavi, et non erat qui audiret. Numquid abbreviata et parvula facta est manus mea, ut non possim redimere ? aut non est in me virtus ad liberandum ? Ecce in increpatione mea desertum faciam mare, ponam flumina in siccum ; computrescent pisces sine aqua, et morientur in siti.	2 Wherfore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stinketh, because there is no water, and dieth for thirst.
3 Induam cælos tenebris, et saccum ponam operimentum eorum.	3 I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.
4 Dominus dedit mihi linguam eruditam, ut sciam sustentare eum qui lassus est verbo. Erigit mane, mane erigit mihi aurem, ut audiam quasi magistrum.	4 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
5 Dominus Deus aperuit mihi aurem, ego autem non contradico : retrorsum non abii.	5 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.
6 Corpus meum dedi percutientibus, et genas meas vellentibus ; faciem meam non averti ab increpantibus et conspuentibus in me.	6 I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
7 Dominus Deus auxiliator meus, ideo non sum confusus ; ideo posui faciem meam ut petram durissimam, et scio quoniam non confundar.	7 For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.
8 Juxta est qui justificat me ; quis contradicet mihi ? Stemus simul ; quis est adversarius meus ? accedat ad me.	8 He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me.
9 Ecce Dominus Deus auxiliator meus ; quis est qui condemnet me ? Ecce omnes quasi vestimentum conterentur ; tinea comedet eos.	9 Behold, the Lord GOD will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? lo, they all shall wax old as a garment; the moth shall eat them up.
10 Quis ex vobis timens Dominum, audiens vocem servi sui ? Qui ambulavit in tenebris, et non est lumen ei, speret in nomine Domini, et innitatur super Deum suum.	10 Who is among you that feareth the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.
11 Ecce vos omnes accendentes ignem, accincti flammis : ambulate in lumine ignis vestri, et in flammis quas succendistis ; de manu mea factum est hoc vobis : in doloribus dormietis.	11 Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks that ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow.
