| [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]And now thus saith the Lord God that made thee, O Jacob, and 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]And if thou pass through water, I am with thee; and the rivers shall not overflow thee: and if thou go through fire, thou shalt not be burned; the flame shall not burn 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, that saves thee: I have made Egypt and Ethiopia thy ransom, and given Soene 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 becamest precious in my sight, thou hast become glorious, and I have loved thee: and I will give men for thee, and princes 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 will 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, Bring; and to the south, Keep not back; bring my sons from the land afar off, 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 all who are called by my name: for I have prepared him for my glory, and I have formed him, and have made him: |
| [8]Educ foras populum cæcum, et oculos habentem; surdum, et aures ei sunt. |
[8]and I have brought forth the blind people; for their eyes are alike blind, and they that have ears are deaf. |
| [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]All the nations are gathered together, and princes shall be gathered out of them: who will declare these things? or who will declare to you things from the beginning? let them bring forth their witnesses, and be justified; and let them hear, and declare the 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]Be ye my witnesses, and I too am a witness, saith the Lord God, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know, and believe, and understand that I am he: before me there was no other God, and after me there shall be none. |
| [11]Ego sum, ego sum Dominus; et non est absque me salvator. |
[11]I am God; 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; I have reproached, and there was no strange god among you: ye are my witnesses, and I am the Lord God, |
| [13]Et ab initio ego ipse; et non est qui de manu mea eruat. Operabor, et quis avertet illud? |
[13]even from the beginning; and there is none that can deliver out of my hands: I will work, and who shall turn it back? |
| [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 God that redeems you, the Holy One of Israel; for your sakes I will send to Babylon, and I will stir up all that flee, and the Chaldeans shall be bound in ships. |
| [15]Ego Dominus, Sanctus vester, creans Israël, rex vester. |
[15]I am the Lord God, your Holy One, who have appointed for Israel your king. |
| [16]Hæc dicit Dominus, qui dedit in mari viam, et in aquis torrentibus semitam; |
[16]Thus saith the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty water; |
| [17]qui eduxit quadrigam et equum, agmen et robustum; simul obdormierunt, nec resurgent; contriti sunt quasi linum, et extincti sunt. |
[17]who brought forth chariots and horse, and a mighty multitude: but they have lain down, and shall not rise: they are extinct, as quenched flax. |
| [18]Ne memineritis priorum, et antiqua ne intueamini. |
[18]Remember ye not the former things, and consider not the ancient things. |
| [19]Ecce ego facio nova, et nunc orientur, utique cognoscetis ea; ponam in deserto viam, et in invio flumina. |
[19]Behold, I will do new things, which shall presently spring forth, and ye shall know them: and I will make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land. |
| [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 beasts of the field shall bless me, the owls and young ostriches; for I have given water in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land, to give drink to my chosen race, |
| [21]Populum istum formavi mihi, laudem meam narrabit. |
[21]my people whom I have preserved to tell forth my praises. |
| [22]Non me invocasti, Jacob; nec laborasti in me, Israël. |
[22]I have not now called thee, O Jacob; neither have I made thee weary, 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 sheep of thy whole-burnt-offering; neither hast thou glorified me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with sacrifices, neither have I wearied thee with frankincense. |
| [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]Neither hast thou purchased for me victims for silver, neither have I desired the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou didst stand before me in thy sins, and in 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 blots out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and thy sins; and I will not remember them. |
| [26]Reduc me in memoriam, et judicemur simul: narra si quid habes ut justificeris. |
[26]But do thou remember, and let us plead together: do thou first confess thy transgressions, that thou mayest be justified. |
| [27]Pater tuus primus peccavit, et interpretes tui prævaricati sunt in me: |
[27]Your fathers first, and your princes have transgressed against me. |
| [28]et contaminavi principes sanctos; dedi ad internecionem Jacob, et Israël in blasphemiam. |
[28]And the princes have defiled my sanctuaries: so I gave Jacob to enemies to destroy, and Israel to reproach. |
