24 — Isaia

1Behold the Lord shall lay waste the earth, and shall strip it, and shall afflict the face thereof, and scatter abroad the inhabitants thereof.Ecco, che il Signore desolerà, e spoglierà la terra, e afflitta renderà la faccia di lei, e dispergerà i suoi abitatori.BEHOLD our Lord shal dissipate the earth, and make it naked, and afflict the face therof, and disperse the inhabitants therof.Ecce Dominus dissipabit terram: / et nudabit eam, et affliget faciem ejus, / et disperget habitatores ejus. 2And it shall be as with the people, so with the priest: and as with the servant so with his master: as with the handmaid, so with her mistress: as with the buyer, so with the seller: as with the lender, so with the borrower: as with him that calleth for his money, so with him that oweth.E sarà come il popolo, così il sacerdote; e come lo schiavo, così il padrone; come la serva, così la padrona; come chi compra, così chi vende, come chi dà in prestito, così chi prende; come il creditore, così il debitore.And as the people, so shal the priest be: & as the seruant, so his master: as the handmayde, so her mistresse: as the byer, so he that selleth: as the lender, so he that boroweth: as he that asketh his dewe, so he that oweth.Et erit sicut populus, sic sacerdos; / et sicut servus, sic dominus ejus; / sicut ancilla, sic domina ejus; / sicut emens, sic ille qui vendit; / sicut fœnerator, sic is qui mutuum accipit; / sicut qui repetit, sic qui debet. 3With desolation shall the earth be laid waste, and it shall be utterly spoiled: for the Lord hath spoken this word.Disertata totalmente sarà la terra, e totalmente sarà devastata. Imperocché il Signore ha pronunziata questa parola.With dissipation shal the earth be dissipated, and with spoile it shal be spoiled: for our Lord hath spoken this worde.Dissipatione dissipabitur terra, et direptione prædabitur; / Dominus enim locutus est verbum hoc. 4The earth mourned, and faded away, and is weakened: the world faded away, the height of the people of the earth is weakened.La terra è in lagrime, e si consuma, e vien meno: si consuma il mondo, si consumano gli eccelsi del popolo della terra.The earth hath mourned, and fallen away, and is weakened: the world is fallen away, the height of the people of the earth is weakened.Luxit, et defluxit terra, et infirmata est; / defluxit orbis, / infirmata est altitudo populi terræ.

5And the earth is infected by the inhabitants thereof: because they have transgressed the laws, they have changed the ordinance, they have broken the everlasting covenant.La terra è infettata da suoi abitatori; perchè questi han trasgredite le leggi, han cambiato il diritto; hanno sciolta l'alleanza sempiterna.And the earth is infected by the inhabitants therof: because they haue transgressed the lawes, changed right, dissipated the euerlasting couenant.Et terra infecta est ab habitatoribus suis, / quia transgressi sunt leges, / mutaverunt jus, / dissipaverunt fœdus sempiternum. 6Therefore shall a curse devour the earth, and the inhabitants thereof shall sin: and therefore they that dwell therein shall be mad, and few men shall be left.Per questo la maledizione divorerà la terra, perchè i suoi abitanti son peccatori, e per questo daranno in pazzie que', che in essa dimorano, e scarso numero d'uomini resterà.For this cause shal malediction deuoure the earth, & the inhabitants therof shal sinne: and therfore the dwellers therein shal be madde, & few men shal be leaft.Propter hoc maledictio vorabit terram, / et peccabunt habitatores ejus; / ideoque insanient cultores ejus, / et relinquentur homines pauci. 7The vintage hath mourned, the vine hath languished away, all the merry-hearted have sighed.La vendemmia è in lutto, la vite ha perduto il vigore: sono in pianto quegli, che erano allegri di cuore.The vintage hath mourned, the vine is weakened, al haue sighed that reioyced in hart.Luxit vindemia, infirmata est vitis, / ingemuerunt omnes qui lætabantur corde; 8The mirth of timbrels hath ceased, the noise of them that rejoice is ended, the melody of the harp is silent.E finito il festoso suono de' timpani, cessò il romoreggiare delle allegre combriccole, la dolce cetra è in silenzio.The ioy of tymbrels hath ceased, the sound of them that reioyce is least of, the sweetnes of the harpe is silent.cessavit gaudium tympanorum, / quievit sonitus lætantium, / conticuit dulcedo citharæ. 9They shall not drink wine with a song: the drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.Non più beranno vino cantando: ogni bevanda sarà amara pei bevitori.They shal not drinke wine with song: the drinke shal be bitter to them that drinke it.Cum cantico non bibent vinum; / amara erit potio bibentibus illam. 10The city of vanity is broken down, every house is shut up, no man cometh in.La città della vanità si va distruggendo, tutte le case son chiuse, né alcuno più vi entra.The citie of vanitie is broken downe, euerie house is shut, no man goeth in.Attrita est civitas vanitatis, / clausa est omnis domus, nullo introëunte.

11There shall be a crying for wine in the streets: all mirth is forsaken: the joy of the earth is gone away.Saran grida nelle contrade per la penuria del vino: ogni solazzo è sbandito: se n'è ita l'allegrezza della terra.There shal be crying for the wine in the streetes: al mirth is left: the ioy of the earth is caried away.Clamor erit super vino in plateis, / deserta est omnia lætitia, / translatum est gaudium terræ. 12Desolation is left in the city, and calamity shall oppress the gates.In città e rimasa la solitudine, e le porte saranno in desolazione.Desolation is left in the citie, and calamitie shal oppresse the gates.Relicta est in urbe solitudo, / et calamitas opprimet portas. 13For it shall be thus in the midst of the earth, in the midst of the people, as if a few olives, that remain, should be shaken out of the olive tree: or grapes, when the vintage is ended.Perocché così avverrà nel mezzo della terra, nel centro de' popoli: come se si scuotano poche olive rimaste sull'albero, e si tolgano i gracimoli finita che sia la vendemmia.Because these thinges shal be in the middes of the earth, in the middes of peoples, in like maner as if a few oliues, which are remayning, should be shaken out of the oliue tree; and grapes, when the vintage is ended.Quia hæc erunt in medio terræ / in medio populorum, / quomodo si paucæ olivæ quæ remanserunt / excutiantur ex olea et racemi, / cum fuerit finita vindemia. 14These shall lift up their voice, and shall give praise: when the Lord shall be glorified, they shall make a joyful noise from the sea.Questi alzeran la lor voce, e intuoneran delle laude: daranno festosi gridi dal mare, allorché sarà stato glorificato il Signore.These shal lift vp their voice, and prayse: when our Lord shal be glorified, they shal make a ioyful noise from the sea.Hi levabunt vocem suam, atque laudabunt: / cum glorificatus fuerit Dominus, hinnient de mari. 15Therefore glorify ye the Lord in instruction: the name of the Lord God of Israel in the islands of the sea.Per questo colla dottrina glorificate il Signore, il nome del Signore Dio d'Israele nelle isole del mare.For this cause in doctrines glorifie our Lord: in the iles of the sea the name of our Lord the God of Israel.Propter hoc in doctrinis glorificate Dominum; / in insulis maris / nomen Domini Dei Israël. 16From the ends of the earth we have heard praises, the glory of the just one. And I said: My secret to myself, my secret to myself, woe is me: the prevaricators have prevaricated, and with the prevarication of transgressors they have prevaricated.Dalle estremità della terra abbiamo udito cantarsi laude a gloria del giusto. Ed io dissi: Il mio segreto è per me: il mio segreto è per me: povero me! i prevaricatori hanno prevaricato, ed hanno prevaricato con prevaricazione da protervi.From the endes of the earth we haue heard praises, the glorie of the iust one. And I sayd: My secrete to me, my secrete to me, woe is me: the preuaricatours haue preuaricated, and by the preuarication of trangressors they haue preuaricated.A finibus terræ laudes audivimus, / gloriam Justi. / Et dixi: Secretum meum mihi, / secretum meum mihi. / Væ mihi ! / prævaricantes prævaricati sunt, / et prævaricatione transgressorum prævaricati sunt.

17Fear, and the pit, and the snare are upon thee, O thou inhabitant of the earth.La scacciata, e la fossa, e il laccio sono per te, che sei abitator della terra.Feare, and pitte, and snare vpon thee, that art inhabiter of the earth.Formido, et fovea, et laqueus / super te, qui habitator es terræ. 18And it shall come to pass, that he that shall flee from the noise of the fear, shall fall into the pit: and he that shall rid himself out of the pit, shall be taken in the snare: for the flood-gates from on high are opened, and the foundations of the earth shall be shaken.E chi dalla scacciata si salverà, cadrà nella fossa, e chi si salverà dalla fossa, sarà preso al laccio; perocché si apriranno dall'alto le cataratte, e le fondamenta della terra saranno scosse.And it shal be: He that shal flee from the voice of feare, shal fal into the pitte: and he that shal rid him selfe out of the pitte, shal be held in the snare: because the fludgates from on high are opened, and the fundations of the earth shal be shaken.Et erit: qui fugerit a voce formidinis cadet in foveam; / et qui se explicaverit de fovea tenebitur laqueo; / quia cataractæ de excelsis apertæ sunt / et concutientur fundamenta terræ. 19With breaking shall the earth be broken, with crushing shall the earth be crushed, with trembling shall the earth be moved.Sarà spezzata con gran fracasso la terra; si spaccherà con crepature grandi la terra; sarà scommossa con isconvolgimento grande la terra,With breaking shal the earth the broken, with bruising shal the earth be bruised, with mouing shal the earth be moued,Confractione confringetur terra, / contritione conteretur terra, / commotione commovebitur terra; 20With shaking shall the earth be shaken as a drunken man, and shall be removed as the tent of one night: and the iniquity thereof shall be heavy upon it, and it shall fall, and not rise again.Sarà in agitazione la terra come un ubbriaco; e muterà sito come un padiglione, che sta fermo una notte: sarà a lei grave peso la sua iniquità, ed ella cadrà, né potrà più rialzarsi.With shaking shal the earth be shaken as a drunken man, and shal be taken away as the tabernacle of one night: and the iniquitie therof shal be heauie vpon it, and it shal fal, and not adde to rise againe.agitatione agitabitur terra sicut ebrius, / et auferetur quasi tabernaculum unius noctis; / et gravabit eam iniquitas sua, / et corruet, et non adjiciet ut resurgat.

21And it shall come to pass, that in that day the Lord shall visit upon the host of heaven on high, and upon the kings of the earth, on the earth.E in quel giorno visiterà il Signore la milizia del cielo nell'alto: e re della terra, i quali sono sopra la terra.And it thal be: In that day our Lord wil visite vpon the hoste of heauen on high, and vpon the kinges of the earth, that are vpon the earth.Et erit: in die illa visitabit Dominus / super militiam cæli in excelso, / et super reges terræ qui sunt super terram; 22And they shall be gathered together as in the gathering of one bundle into the pit, and they shall be shut up there in prison: and after many days they shall be visited.E saran riuniti tutti in un fascio nella fossa, e ivi saran chiusi in prigione; ed anche dopo molti giorni saranno visitati.And they shal be gathered together as the gathering of a bundel into the lake, and shal be shut there in prison: and after manie daies they shal be visited.et congregabuntur in congregatione unius fascis in lacum, / et claudentur ibi in carcere, / et post multos dies visitabuntur. 23And the moon shall blush, and the sun shall be ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount Sion, and in Jerusalem, and shall be glorified in the sight of his ancients.E la luna arrossirà, e il sole si oscurerà, allorché il Signore Dio degli eserciti sarà entrato al possesso del regno nel monte di Sion, e in Gerusalemme, e sarà glorificato nel cospetto de' suoi seniori.And the moone shal be confounded, when the Lord of hostes shal reigne in mount Sion, and in Ierusalem, & shal be glorified in the sight of his ancients.Et erubescet luna, et confundetur sol, / cum regnaverit Dominus exercituum / in monte Sion et in Jerusalem / et in conspectu senum suorum fuerit glorificatus.
