Isaiah 16
1 Send ye the lambs for the ruler of the land from Selah to the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
emitte agnum dominatorem terrae de Petra deserti ad montem filiae Sion
2 For it shall be that, as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so shall the daughters of Moab be at the fords of the Arnon.
et erit sicut avis fugiens et pulli de nido avolantes sic erunt filiae Moab in transcensu Arnon
3 Give counsel, execute justice; make thy shade as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; betray not the fugitive.
ini consilium coge concilium pone quasi noctem umbram tuam in meridie absconde fugientes et vagos ne prodas
4 Let mine outcasts dwell with thee; as for Moab, be thou a covert to him from the face of the destroyer. For the extortioner is brought to nought, destruction ceaseth, the oppressors are consumed out of the land.
habitabunt apud te profugi mei Moab esto latibulum eorum a facie vastatoris finitus est enim pulvis consummatus est miser defecit qui conculcabat terram
5 And a throne shall be established in lovingkindness; and one shall sit thereon in truth, in the tent of David, judging, and seeking justice, and swift to do righteousness.
et praeparabitur in misericordia solium et sedebit super eum in veritate in tabernaculo David iudicans et quaerens iudicium et velociter reddens quod iustum est
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab, [that] he is very proud; even of his arrogancy, and his pride, and his wrath; his boastings are nought.
audivimus superbiam Moab superbus est valde superbia eius et arrogantia eius et indignatio eius plus quam fortitudo eius
7 Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, every one shall wail: for the raisin-cakes of Kir-hareseth shall ye mourn, utterly stricken.
idcirco ululabit Moab ad Moab universus ululabit his qui laetantur super muro cocti lateris loquimini plagas suas
8 For the fields of Heshbon languish, [and] the vine of Sibmah; the lords of the nations have broken down the choice branches thereof, which reached even unto Jazer, which wandered into the wilderness; its shoots were spread abroad, they passed over the sea.
quoniam suburbana Esebon deserta sunt et vinea Sabama domini gentium exciderunt flagella eius usque ad Iazer pervenerunt erraverunt in deserto propagines eius relictae sunt transierunt mare
9 Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah; I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for upon thy summer fruits and upon thy harvest the [battle] shout is fallen.
super hoc plorabo in fletu Iazer vineam Sabama inebriabo te lacrima mea Esebon et Eleale quoniam super vindemiam tuam et super messem tuam vox calcantium inruit
10 And gladness is taken away, and joy out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither joyful noise: no treader shall tread out wine in the presses; I have made the [vintage] shout to cease.
et auferetur laetitia et exultatio de Carmelo et in vineis non exultabit neque iubilabit vinum in torculari non calcabit qui calcare consueverat vocem calcantium abstuli
11 Wherefore my heart soundeth like a harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kir-heres.
super hoc venter meus ad Moab quasi cithara sonabit et viscera mea ad murum cocti lateris
12 And it shall come to pass, when Moab presenteth himself, when he wearieth himself upon the high place, and shall come to his sanctuary to pray, that he shall not prevail.
et erit cum apparuerit quod laboravit Moab super excelsis suis ingredietur ad sancta sua ut obsecret et non valebit
13 This is the word that Jehovah spake concerning Moab in time past.
hoc verbum quod locutus est Dominus ad Moab ex tunc
14 But now Jehovah hath spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of a hireling, the glory of Moab shall be brought into contempt, with all his great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and of no account.
et nunc locutus est Dominus dicens in tribus annis quasi anni mercennarii auferetur gloria Moab super omni populo multo et relinquetur parvus et modicus nequaquam multus
