< Isaiah 34 >

1 Come near, you nations, to hear! Listen, you peoples. Let the earth and all it contains hear, the world, and everything that comes from it.
accedite gentes et audite et populi adtendite audiat terra et plenitudo eius orbis et omne germen eius
2 For Yahweh is enraged against all the nations, and angry with all their armies. He has utterly destroyed them. He has given them over for slaughter.
quia indignatio Domini super omnes gentes et furor super universam militiam eorum interfecit eos et dedit eos in occisionem
3 Their slain will also be cast out, and the stench of their dead bodies will come up. The mountains will melt in their blood.
interfecti eorum proicientur et de cadaveribus eorum ascendet fetor tabescent montes sanguine eorum
4 All of the army of the sky will be dissolved. The sky will be rolled up like a scroll, and all its armies will fade away, as a leaf fades from off a vine or a fig tree.
et tabescet omnis militia caelorum et conplicabuntur sicut liber caeli et omnis militia eorum defluet sicut defluit folium de vinea et de ficu
5 For my sword has drunk its fill in the sky. Behold, it will come down on Edom, and on the people of my curse, for judgment.
quoniam inebriatus est in caelo gladius meus ecce super Idumeam descendet et super populum interfectionis meae ad iudicium
6 Yahweh’s sword is filled with blood. It is covered with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams; for Yahweh has a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
gladius Domini repletus est sanguine incrassatus est adipe de sanguine agnorum et hircorum de sanguine medullatorum arietum victima enim Domini in Bosra et interfectio magna in terra Edom
7 The wild oxen will come down with them, and the young bulls with the mighty bulls; and their land will be drunken with blood, and their dust made greasy with fat.
et descendent unicornes cum eis et tauri cum potentibus inebriabitur terra eorum sanguine et humus eorum adipe pinguium
8 For Yahweh has a day of vengeance, a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
quia dies ultionis Domini annus retributionum iudicii Sion
9 Its streams will be turned into pitch, its dust into sulfur, and its land will become burning pitch.
et convertentur torrentes eius in picem et humus eius in sulphur et erit terra eius in picem ardentem
10 It won’t be quenched night or day. Its smoke will go up forever. From generation to generation, it will lie waste. No one will pass through it forever and ever.
nocte et die non extinguetur in sempiternum ascendet fumus eius a generatione in generationem desolabitur in saeculum saeculorum non erit transiens per eam
11 But the pelican and the porcupine will possess it. The owl and the raven will dwell in it. He will stretch the line of confusion over it, and the plumb line of emptiness.
et possidebunt illam onocrotalus et ericius et ibis et corvus habitabunt in ea et extendetur super eam mensura ut redigatur ad nihilum et perpendiculum in desolationem
12 They shall call its nobles to the kingdom, but none shall be there; and all its princes shall be nothing.
nobiles eius non erunt ibi regem potius invocabunt et omnes principes eius erunt in nihilum
13 Thorns will come up in its palaces, nettles and thistles in its fortresses; and it will be a habitation of jackals, a court for ostriches.
et orientur in domibus eius spinae et urticae et paliurus in munitionibus eius et erit cubile draconum et pascua strutionum
14 The wild animals of the desert will meet with the wolves, and the wild goat will cry to his fellow. Yes, the night creature shall settle there, and shall find herself a place of rest.
et occurrent daemonia onocentauris et pilosus clamabit alter ad alterum ibi cubavit lamia et invenit sibi requiem
15 The arrow snake will make her nest there, and lay, hatch, and gather under her shade. Yes, the kites will be gathered there, every one with her mate.
ibi habuit foveam ericius et enutrivit catulos et circumfodit et fovit in umbra eius illuc congregati sunt milvi alter ad alterum
16 Search in the book of Yahweh, and read: not one of these will be missing. None will lack her mate. For my mouth has commanded, and his Spirit has gathered them.
requirite diligenter in libro Domini et legite unum ex eis non defuit alter ad alterum non quaesivit quia quod ex ore meo procedit ille mandavit et spiritus eius ipse congregavit ea
17 He has cast the lot for them, and his hand has divided it to them with a measuring line. They shall possess it forever. From generation to generation they will dwell in it.
et ipse misit eis sortem et manus eius divisit eam illis in mensuram usque in aeternum possidebunt eam in generatione et generatione habitabunt in ea
