Isaiah 24
1 Behold, Jehovah maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.
ecce Dominus dissipabit terram et nudabit eam et adfliget faciem eius et disperget habitatores eius
2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the creditor, so with the debtor; as with the taker of interest, so with the giver of interest to him.
et erit sicut populus sic sacerdos et sicut servus sic dominus eius sicut ancilla sic domina eius sicut emens sic ille qui vendit sicut fenerator sic is qui mutuum accipit sicut qui repetit sic qui debet
3 The earth shall be utterly emptied, and utterly laid waste; for Jehovah hath spoken this word.
dissipatione dissipabitur terra et direptione praedabitur Dominus enim locutus est verbum hoc
4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the lofty people of the earth do languish.
luxit et defluxit terra et infirmata est defluxit orbis infirmata est altitudo populi terrae
5 The earth also is polluted under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, broken the everlasting covenant.
et terra interfecta est ab habitatoribus suis quia transgressi sunt leges mutaverunt ius dissipaverunt foedus sempiternum
6 Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are found guilty: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.
propter hoc maledictio vorabit terram et peccabunt habitatores eius ideoque insanient cultores eius et relinquentur homines pauci
7 The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merry-hearted do sigh.
luxit vindemia infirmata est vitis ingemuerunt omnes qui laetabantur corde
8 The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth.
cessavit gaudium tympanorum quievit sonitus laetantium conticuit dulcedo citharae
9 They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.
cum cantico non bibent vinum amara erit potio bibentibus illam
10 The waste city is broken down; every house is shut up, that no man may come in.
adtrita est civitas vanitatis clausa est omnis domus nullo introeunte
11 There is a crying in the streets because of the wine; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone.
clamor erit super vino in plateis deserta est omnis laetitia translatum est gaudium terrae
12 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction.
relicta est in urbe solitudo et calamitas opprimet portas
13 For thus shall it be in the midst of the earth among the peoples, as the shaking of an olive-tree, as the gleanings when the vintage is done.
quia haec erunt in medio terrae in medio populorum quomodo si paucae olivae quae remanserunt excutiantur ex olea et racemi cum fuerit finita vindemia
14 These shall lift up their voice, they shall shout; for the majesty of Jehovah they cry aloud from the sea.
hii levabunt vocem suam atque laudabunt cum glorificatus fuerit Dominus hinnient de mari
15 Wherefore glorify ye Jehovah in the east, even the name of Jehovah, the God of Israel, in the isles of the sea.
propter hoc in doctrinis glorificate Dominum in insulis maris nomen Domini Dei Israhel
16 From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs: Glory to the righteous. But I said, I pine away, I pine away, woe is me! the treacherous have dealt treacherously; yea, the treacherous have dealt very treacherously.
a finibus terrae laudes audivimus gloriam iusti et dixi secretum meum mihi secretum meum mihi vae mihi praevaricantes praevaricati sunt et praevaricatione transgressorum praevaricati sunt
17 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth.
formido et fovea et laqueus super te qui habitator es terrae
18 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows on high are opened, and the foundations of the earth tremble.
et erit qui fugerit a voce formidinis cadet in foveam et qui se explicuerit de fovea tenebitur laqueo quia cataractae de excelsis apertae sunt et concutientur fundamenta terrae
19 The earth is utterly broken, the earth is rent asunder, the earth is shaken violently.
confractione confringetur terra contritione conteretur terra commotione commovebitur terra
20 The earth shall stagger like a drunken man, and shall sway to and fro like a hammock; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it, and it shall fall, and not rise again.
agitatione agitabitur terra sicut ebrius et auferetur quasi tabernaculum unius noctis et gravabit eam iniquitas sua et corruet et non adiciet ut resurgat
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah will punish the host of the high ones on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.
et erit in die illa visitabit Dominus super militiam caeli in excelso et super reges terrae qui sunt super terram
22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison; and after many days shall they be visited.
et congregabuntur in congregationem unius fascis in lacum et cludentur ibi in carcerem et post multos dies visitabuntur
23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed; for Jehovah of hosts will reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem; and before his elders shall be glory.
et erubescet luna et confundetur sol cum regnaverit Dominus exercituum in monte Sion et in Hierusalem et in conspectu senum suorum fuerit glorificatus
