Isaias 7-8
Biblia Sacra Vulgata
7 Et factum est in diebus Achaz, filii Joathan, filii Oziae, regis Juda, ascendit Rasin, rex Syriae, et Phacee, filius Romeliae, rex Israel, in Jerusalem, ad praeliandum contra eam: et non potuerunt
2 debellare eam. Et nuntiaverunt domui David, dicentes: Requievit Syria super Ephraim. Et commotum est cor ejus, et cor populi ejus, sicut moventur ligna silvarum a facie venti.
3 Et dixit Dominus ad Isaiam: Egredere in occursum Achaz, tu et qui derelictus est Jasub, filius tuus, ad extremum aquaeductus piscinae superioris in via agri Fullonis;
4 et dices ad eum: Vide ut sileas; noli timere, et cor tuum ne formidet a duabus caudis titionum fumigantium istorum, in ira furoris Rasin, regis Syriae, et filii Romeliae;
5 eo quod consilium inierit contra te Syria in malum, Ephraim, et filius Romeliae, dicentes:
6 Ascendamus ad Judam, et suscitemus eum, et avellamus eum ad nos, et ponamus regem in medio ejus filium Tabeel.
7 Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Non stabit, et non erit istud;
8 sed caput Syriae Damascus, et caput Damasci Rasin; et adhuc sexaginta et quinque anni, et desinet Ephraim esse populus;
9 et caput Ephraim Samaria, et caput Samariae filius Romeliae. Si non credideritis, non permanebitis.
10 Et adjecit Dominus loqui ad Achaz, dicens:
11 Pete tibi signum a Domino Deo tuo, in profundum inferni, sive in excelsum supra.
12 Et dixit Achaz: Non petam, et non tentabo Dominum.
13 Et dixit: Audite ergo, domus David. Numquid parum vobis est molestos esse hominibus, quia molesti estis et Deo meo?
14 Propter hoc dabit Dominus ipse vobis signum: ecce virgo concipiet, et pariet filium, et vocabitur nomen ejus Emmanuel.
15 Butyrum et mel comedet, ut sciat reprobare malum, et eligere bonum.
16 Quia antequam sciat puer reprobare malum et eligere bonum, derelinquetur terra quam tu detestaris a facie duorum regum suorum.
17 Adducet Dominus super te, et super populum tuum, et super domum patris tui, dies qui non venerunt a diebus separationis Ephraim a Juda, cum rege Assyriorum.
18 Et erit in die illa: sibilabit Dominus muscae quae est in extremo fluminum AEgypti, et api quae est in terra Assur;
19 et venient, et requiescent omnes in torrentibus vallium, et in cavernis petrarum, et in omnibus frutetis, et in universis foraminibus.
20 In die illa radet Dominus in novacula conducta in his qui trans flumen sunt, in rege Assyriorum, caput et pilos pedum, et barbam universam.
21 Et erit in die illa: nutriet homo vaccam boum, et duas oves,
22 et prae ubertate lactis comedet butyrum; butyrum enim et mel manducabit omnis qui relictus fuerit in medio terrae.
23 Et erit in die illa: omnis locus ubi fuerint mille vites, mille argenteis, in spinas et in vepres erunt.
24 Cum sagittis et arcu ingredientur illuc: vepres enim et spinae erunt in universa terra.
25 Et omnes montes qui in sarculo sarrientur, non veniet illuc terror spinarum et veprium: et erit in pascua bovis, et in conculcationem pecoris.
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.
Isaiah 7-8
New International Version
Isaiah 7-8
New International Version
The Sign of Immanuel
7 When Ahaz(A) son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, was king of Judah, King Rezin(B) of Aram(C) and Pekah(D) son of Remaliah(E) king of Israel marched up to fight against Jerusalem, but they could not overpower it.
2 Now the house of David(F) was told, “Aram has allied itself with[a] Ephraim(G)”; so the hearts of Ahaz and his people were shaken,(H) as the trees of the forest are shaken by the wind.
3 Then the Lord said to Isaiah, “Go out, you and your son Shear-Jashub,[b](I) to meet Ahaz at the end of the aqueduct of the Upper Pool, on the road to the Launderer’s Field.(J) 4 Say to him, ‘Be careful, keep calm(K) and don’t be afraid.(L) Do not lose heart(M) because of these two smoldering stubs(N) of firewood—because of the fierce anger(O) of Rezin and Aram and of the son of Remaliah.(P) 5 Aram, Ephraim and Remaliah’s(Q) son have plotted(R) your ruin, saying, 6 “Let us invade Judah; let us tear it apart and divide it among ourselves, and make the son of Tabeel king over it.” 7 Yet this is what the Sovereign Lord says:(S)
“‘It will not take place,
it will not happen,(T)
8 for the head of Aram is Damascus,(U)
and the head of Damascus is only Rezin.(V)
Within sixty-five years
Ephraim will be too shattered(W) to be a people.
9 The head of Ephraim is Samaria,(X)
and the head of Samaria is only Remaliah’s son.
If you do not stand(Y) firm in your faith,(Z)
you will not stand at all.’”(AA)
10 Again the Lord spoke to Ahaz, 11 “Ask the Lord your God for a sign,(AB) whether in the deepest depths or in the highest heights.(AC)”
12 But Ahaz said, “I will not ask; I will not put the Lord to the test.(AD)”
13 Then Isaiah said, “Hear now, you house of David!(AE) Is it not enough(AF) to try the patience of humans? Will you try the patience(AG) of my God(AH) also? 14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you[c] a sign:(AI) The virgin[d](AJ) will conceive and give birth to a son,(AK) and[e] will call him Immanuel.[f](AL) 15 He will be eating curds(AM) and honey(AN) when he knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, 16 for before the boy knows(AO) enough to reject the wrong and choose the right,(AP) the land of the two kings you dread will be laid waste.(AQ) 17 The Lord will bring on you and on your people and on the house of your father a time unlike any since Ephraim broke away(AR) from Judah—he will bring the king of Assyria.(AS)”
Assyria, the Lord’s Instrument
18 In that day(AT) the Lord will whistle(AU) for flies from the Nile delta in Egypt and for bees from the land of Assyria.(AV) 19 They will all come and settle in the steep ravines and in the crevices(AW) in the rocks, on all the thornbushes(AX) and at all the water holes. 20 In that day(AY) the Lord will use(AZ) a razor hired from beyond the Euphrates River(BA)—the king of Assyria(BB)—to shave your head and private parts, and to cut off your beard(BC) also.(BD) 21 In that day,(BE) a person will keep alive a young cow and two goats.(BF) 22 And because of the abundance of the milk they give, there will be curds to eat. All who remain in the land will eat curds(BG) and honey.(BH) 23 In that day,(BI) in every place where there were a thousand vines worth a thousand silver shekels,[g](BJ) there will be only briers and thorns.(BK) 24 Hunters will go there with bow and arrow, for the land will be covered with briers(BL) and thorns. 25 As for all the hills(BM) once cultivated by the hoe, you will no longer go there for fear of the briers and thorns;(BN) they will become places where cattle are turned loose and where sheep run.(BO)
Isaiah and His Children as Signs
8 The Lord said to me, “Take a large scroll(BP) and write on it with an ordinary pen: Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.”[h](BQ) 2 So I called in Uriah(BR) the priest and Zechariah son of Jeberekiah as reliable witnesses(BS) for me. 3 Then I made love to the prophetess,(BT) and she conceived and gave birth to a son.(BU) And the Lord said to me, “Name him Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.(BV) 4 For before the boy knows(BW) how to say ‘My father’ or ‘My mother,’ the wealth of Damascus(BX) and the plunder of Samaria will be carried off by the king of Assyria.(BY)”
5 The Lord spoke to me again:
6 “Because this people has rejected(BZ)
the gently flowing waters of Shiloah(CA)
and rejoices over Rezin
and the son of Remaliah,(CB)
7 therefore the Lord is about to bring against them
the mighty floodwaters(CC) of the Euphrates—
the king of Assyria(CD) with all his pomp.(CE)
It will overflow all its channels,
run over all its banks(CF)
8 and sweep on into Judah, swirling over it,(CG)
passing through it and reaching up to the neck.
Its outspread wings(CH) will cover the breadth of your land,
Immanuel[i]!”(CI)
9 Raise the war cry,[j](CJ) you nations, and be shattered!(CK)
Listen, all you distant lands.
Prepare(CL) for battle, and be shattered!
Prepare for battle, and be shattered!
10 Devise your strategy, but it will be thwarted;(CM)
propose your plan, but it will not stand,(CN)
for God is with us.[k](CO)
11 This is what the Lord says to me with his strong hand upon me,(CP) warning me not to follow(CQ) the way of this people:
12 “Do not call conspiracy(CR)
everything this people calls a conspiracy;
do not fear what they fear,(CS)
and do not dread it.(CT)
13 The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy,(CU)
he is the one you are to fear,(CV)
he is the one you are to dread.(CW)
14 He will be a holy place;(CX)
for both Israel and Judah he will be
a stone(CY) that causes people to stumble(CZ)
and a rock that makes them fall.(DA)
And for the people of Jerusalem he will be
a trap and a snare.(DB)
15 Many of them will stumble;(DC)
they will fall and be broken,
they will be snared and captured.”
16 Bind up this testimony of warning(DD)
and seal(DE) up God’s instruction among my disciples.
17 I will wait(DF) for the Lord,
who is hiding(DG) his face from the descendants of Jacob.
I will put my trust in him.(DH)
18 Here am I, and the children the Lord has given me.(DI) We are signs(DJ) and symbols(DK) in Israel from the Lord Almighty, who dwells on Mount Zion.(DL)
The Darkness Turns to Light
19 When someone tells you to consult(DM) mediums and spiritists,(DN) who whisper and mutter,(DO) should not a people inquire(DP) of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living? 20 Consult God’s instruction(DQ) and the testimony of warning.(DR) If anyone does not speak according to this word, they have no light(DS) of dawn. 21 Distressed and hungry,(DT) they will roam through the land;(DU) when they are famished, they will become enraged and, looking upward, will curse(DV) their king and their God. 22 Then they will look toward the earth and see only distress and darkness and fearful gloom,(DW) and they will be thrust into utter darkness.(DX)
