Isaias 8:1-9:7
Biblia Sacra Vulgata
8 Et dixit Dominus ad me: Sume tibi librum grandem, et scribe in eo stylo hominis: Velociter spolia detrahe, cito praedare.
2 Et adhibui mihi testes fideles, Uriam sacerdotem, et Zachariam, filium Barachiae:
3 et accessi ad prophetissam, et concepit, et peperit filium. Et dixit Dominus ad me: Voca nomen ejus: Accelera spolia detrahere; Festina praedari:
4 quia antequam sciat puer vocare patrem suum et matrem suam, auferetur fortitudo Damasci, et spolia Samariae, coram rege Assyriorum.
5 Et adjecit Dominus loqui ad me adhuc, dicens:
6 Pro eo quod abjecit populus iste aquas Siloe, quae vadunt cum silentio, et assumpsit magis Rasin, et filium Romeliae:
7 propter hoc ecce Dominus adducet super eos aquas fluminis fortes et multas, regem Assyriorum, et omnem gloriam ejus, et ascendet super omnes rivos ejus, et fluet super universas ripas ejus;
8 et ibit per Judam, inundans, et transiens: usque ad collum veniet. Et erit extensio alarum ejus implens latitudinem terrae tuae, o Emmanuel!
9 Congregamini, populi, et vincimini; et audite, universae procul terrae: confortamini, et vincimini; accingite vos, et vincimini.
10 Inite consilium, et dissipabitur; loquimini verbum, et non fiet: quia nobiscum Deus.
11 Haec enim ait Dominus ad me: Sicut in manu forti erudivit me, ne irem in via populi hujus, dicens:
12 Non dicatis: Conjuratio; omnia enim quae loquitur populus iste, conjuratio est: et timorem ejus ne timeatis, neque paveatis.
13 Dominum exercituum ipsum sanctificate; ipse pavor vester, et ipse terror vester:
14 et erit vobis in sanctificationem; in lapidem autem offensionis, et in petram scandali, duabus domibus Israel; in laqueum et in ruinam habitantibus Jerusalem.
15 Et offendent ex eis plurimi, et cadent, et conterentur, et irretientur, et capientur.
16 Liga testimonium, signa legem in discipulis meis.
17 Et exspectabo Dominum qui abscondit faciem suam a domo Jacob, et praestolabor eum.
18 Ecce ego et pueri mei quos dedit mihi Dominus in signum, et in portentum Israel a Domino exercituum, qui habitat in monte Sion:
19 et cum dixerint ad vos: Quaerite a pythonibus et a divinis qui strident in incantationibus suis: numquid non populus a Deo suo requiret, pro vivis a mortuis?
20 ad legem magis et ad testimonium. Quod si non dixerint juxta verbum hoc, non erit eis matutina lux.
21 Et transibit per eam, corruet, et esuriet; et cum esurierit, irascetur. Et maledicet regi suo, et Deo suo, et suscipiet sursum,
22 et ad terram intuebitur; et ecce tribulatio et tenebrae, dissolutio et angustia, et caligo persequens, et non poterit avolare de angustia sua.
9 Primo tempore alleviata est terra Zabulon et terra Nephthali: et novissimo aggravata est via maris trans Jordanem Galilaeae gentium.
2 Populus qui ambulabat in tenebris, vidit lucem magnam; habitantibus in regione umbrae mortis, lux orta est eis.
3 Multiplicasti gentem, et non magnificasti laetitiam. Laetabuntur coram te, sicut qui laetantur in messe; sicut exsultant victores capta praeda, quando dividunt spolia.
4 Jugum enim oneris ejus, et virgam humeri ejus, et sceptrum exactoris ejus superasti, sicut in die Madian.
5 Quia omnis violentia praedatio cum tumultu, et vestimentum mistum sanguine, erit in combustionem, et cibus ignis.
6 Parvulus enim natus est nobis, et filius datus est nobis, et factus est principatus super humerum ejus: et vocabitur nomen ejus, Admirabilis, Consiliarius, Deus, Fortis, Pater futuri saeculi, Princeps pacis.
7 Multiplicabitur ejus imperium, et pacis non erit finis; super solium David, et super regnum ejus sedebit, ut confirmet illud et corroboret in judicio et justitia, amodo et usque in sempiternum: zelus Domini exercituum faciet hoc.
Isaiah 8:1-9:7
New International Version
Isaiah 8:1-9:7
New International Version
Isaiah and His Children as Signs
8 The Lord said to me, “Take a large scroll(A) and write on it with an ordinary pen: Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.”[a](B) 2 So I called in Uriah(C) the priest and Zechariah son of Jeberekiah as reliable witnesses(D) for me. 3 Then I made love to the prophetess,(E) and she conceived and gave birth to a son.(F) And the Lord said to me, “Name him Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.(G) 4 For before the boy knows(H) how to say ‘My father’ or ‘My mother,’ the wealth of Damascus(I) and the plunder of Samaria will be carried off by the king of Assyria.(J)”
5 The Lord spoke to me again:
6 “Because this people has rejected(K)
the gently flowing waters of Shiloah(L)
and rejoices over Rezin
and the son of Remaliah,(M)
7 therefore the Lord is about to bring against them
the mighty floodwaters(N) of the Euphrates—
the king of Assyria(O) with all his pomp.(P)
It will overflow all its channels,
run over all its banks(Q)
8 and sweep on into Judah, swirling over it,(R)
passing through it and reaching up to the neck.
Its outspread wings(S) will cover the breadth of your land,
Immanuel[b]!”(T)
9 Raise the war cry,[c](U) you nations, and be shattered!(V)
Listen, all you distant lands.
Prepare(W) for battle, and be shattered!
Prepare for battle, and be shattered!
10 Devise your strategy, but it will be thwarted;(X)
propose your plan, but it will not stand,(Y)
for God is with us.[d](Z)
11 This is what the Lord says to me with his strong hand upon me,(AA) warning me not to follow(AB) the way of this people:
12 “Do not call conspiracy(AC)
everything this people calls a conspiracy;
do not fear what they fear,(AD)
and do not dread it.(AE)
13 The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy,(AF)
he is the one you are to fear,(AG)
he is the one you are to dread.(AH)
14 He will be a holy place;(AI)
for both Israel and Judah he will be
a stone(AJ) that causes people to stumble(AK)
and a rock that makes them fall.(AL)
And for the people of Jerusalem he will be
a trap and a snare.(AM)
15 Many of them will stumble;(AN)
they will fall and be broken,
they will be snared and captured.”
16 Bind up this testimony of warning(AO)
and seal(AP) up God’s instruction among my disciples.
17 I will wait(AQ) for the Lord,
who is hiding(AR) his face from the descendants of Jacob.
I will put my trust in him.(AS)
18 Here am I, and the children the Lord has given me.(AT) We are signs(AU) and symbols(AV) in Israel from the Lord Almighty, who dwells on Mount Zion.(AW)
The Darkness Turns to Light
19 When someone tells you to consult(AX) mediums and spiritists,(AY) who whisper and mutter,(AZ) should not a people inquire(BA) of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living? 20 Consult God’s instruction(BB) and the testimony of warning.(BC) If anyone does not speak according to this word, they have no light(BD) of dawn. 21 Distressed and hungry,(BE) they will roam through the land;(BF) when they are famished, they will become enraged and, looking upward, will curse(BG) their king and their God. 22 Then they will look toward the earth and see only distress and darkness and fearful gloom,(BH) and they will be thrust into utter darkness.(BI)
9 [e]Nevertheless, there will be no more gloom(BJ) for those who were in distress. In the past he humbled the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,(BK) but in the future he will honor Galilee of the nations, by the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan—
2 The people walking in darkness(BL)
have seen a great light;(BM)
on those living in the land of deep darkness(BN)
a light has dawned.(BO)
3 You have enlarged the nation(BP)
and increased their joy;(BQ)
they rejoice before you
as people rejoice at the harvest,
as warriors rejoice
when dividing the plunder.(BR)
4 For as in the day of Midian’s defeat,(BS)
you have shattered(BT)
the yoke(BU) that burdens them,
the bar across their shoulders,(BV)
the rod of their oppressor.(BW)
5 Every warrior’s boot used in battle
and every garment rolled in blood
will be destined for burning,(BX)
will be fuel for the fire.
6 For to us a child is born,(BY)
to us a son is given,(BZ)
and the government(CA) will be on his shoulders.(CB)
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor,(CC) Mighty God,(CD)
Everlasting(CE) Father,(CF) Prince of Peace.(CG)
7 Of the greatness of his government(CH) and peace(CI)
there will be no end.(CJ)
He will reign(CK) on David’s throne
and over his kingdom,
establishing and upholding it
with justice(CL) and righteousness(CM)
from that time on and forever.(CN)
The zeal(CO) of the Lord Almighty
will accomplish this.
