63 — Isaia

1Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bosra, this beautiful one in his robe, walking in the greatness of his strength. I, that speak justice, and am a defender to save.Chi è questi, che viene da Edom, e di Bosra colla veste tinta di rosso? questi bello a vedersi nel suo paludamento, nella cui andatura spicca la sua molta possanza? Io sono, che parlo giustizia, e sono il protettore, che dà salute.VVHO is this that cometh from Edom, with died garments from Bosra, this beautiful one in his robe, going in the multitude of his strength. I, that speake iustice, and am a defender to saue.Quis est iste, qui venit de Edom, / tinctis vestibus de Bosra ? / iste formosus in stola sua, / gradiens in multitudine fortitudinis suæ ? / Ego qui loquor justitiam, / et propugnator sum ad salvandum. 2Why then is thy apparel red, and thy garments like theirs that tread in the winepress?Ma, e perchè rossa è la tua roba, e le tue vesti quasi di chi preme le uve nello strettoio?Why then is thy clothing red, and thy garments as theirs that treade in the wine presse?Quare ergo rubrum est indumentum tuum, / et vestimenta tua sicut calcantium in torculari ? 3I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the Gentiles there is not a man with me: I have trampled on them in my indignation, and have trodden them down in my wrath, and their blood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my apparel.Io da me solo ho premuto il torchio, e delle genti nissuno è con me. Io gli ho spremuti nel mio furore, e nell'ira mia gli ho conculcati, e il sangue loro è schizzato sulla mia roba, ed ho macchiate tutte le mie vestimenta.I haue troden the presse alone, and of the Gentiles there is not a man with me: I haue troden them in my furie, and haue troden them downe in my wrath: and their bloud is sprinkled vpon my garments, and I haue stayned al my rayment.Torcular calcavi solus, / et de gentibus non est vir mecum; / calcavi eos in furore meo, / et conculcavi eos in ira mea: / et aspersus est sanguis eorum super vestimenta mea, / et omnia indumenta mea inquinavi. 4For the day of vengeance is in my heart, the year of my redemption is come.Perocché ecco il dì fissato in cuor mio per la vendetta; l'anno della redenzione mia è venuto.For the day of reuenge is in my hart, the yeare of my redemption is come.Dies enim ultionis in corde meo; / annus redemptionis meæ venit. 5I looked about, and there was none to help: I sought, and there was none to give aid: and my own arm hath saved for me, and my indignation itself hath helped me.Mirai all'intorno, e non era chi porgesse la mano; cercai, e non v'ebbe chi desse aiuto: e mi diè salute il mio braccio, e l'ira mia ella stessa mi consortò.I looked about, & there was no helper: I sought, and there was none to ayde: and myne arme hath saued, and myne indignation itself hath holpen me.Circumspexi, et non erat auxiliator; / quæsivi, et non fuit qui adjuvaret: / et salvavit mihi brachium meum, / et indignatio mea ipsa auxiliata est mihi.

6And I have trodden down the people in my wrath, and have made them drunk in my indignation, and have brought down their strength to the earth.E nel furor mio conculcai i popoli, e della mia indignazione gli inebriai, e gettai a terra la loro fortezza.And I haue troden downe the peoples in my furie, and haue inebriated them in mine indignation, and haue drawen their strength downe to the ground.Et conculcavi populos in furore meo, / et inebriavi eos in indignatione mea, / et detraxi in terram virtutem eorum. 7I will remember the tender mercies of the Lord, the praise of the Lord for all the things that the Lord hath bestowed upon us, and for the multitude of his good things to the house of Israel, which he hath given them according to his kindness, and according to the multitude of his mercies.Io mi ricorderò delle misericordie del Signore, e loderò il Signore per tutte le cose, che ha fatte per noi il Signore, e per la moltitudine de' beni donati da lui alla casa d'Israele secondo la sua benignità; e secondo la moltitudine delle sue misericordie.I wil remember the mercies of our Lord, the prayse of our Lord for al thinges, that our Lord hath rendred to vs, and for the multitude of the good thinges to the house of Israel, which he hath geuen them according to his iudulgence, and according to the multitude of his mercies.Miserationum Domini recordabor; / laudem Domini / super omnibus quæ reddidit nobis Dominus, / et super multitudinem bonorum domui Israël, / quæ largitus est eis secundum indulgentiam suam, / et secundum multitudinem misericordiarum suarum. 8And he said: Surely they are my people, children that will not deny: so he became their saviour.Ed ei disse: Certamente egli è il popol mio, sono figli, non mi rinnegheranno: ed egli fu lor Salvatore.And he sayd: But yet is my people, children that denie not: and he is become their sauiour.Et dixit: Verumtamen populus meus est, / filii non negantes; / et factus est eis salvator. 9In all their affliction he was not troubled, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love, and in his mercy he redeemed them, and he carried them and lifted them up all the days of old.Di qualunque loro tribolazione egli non fu tribolato; e l'Angelo, che sta a lui davanti, li salvò: pella sua carità, e per sua benignità li riscattò, e li sostentò, e gl'ingrandì in ogni tempo.In al their tribulation he was not trubled, and the angel of his face saued them: in his loue, and in his indulgence he redemed them, and bare them, and lifted them vp al the daies of the world.In omni tribulatione eorum non est tribulatus, / et angelus faciei ejus salvavit eos: / in dilectione sua et in indulgentia sua / ipse redemit eos, / et portavit eos, et elevavit eos / cunctis diebus sæculi.

10But they provoked to wrath, and afflicted the spirit of his Holy One: and he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.Ma eglino provocarono ad ira, e contristaron lo spirito del suo Santo, ed ei diventò loro nemico, ed ei medesimo li conquise.But they prouoked to wrath, and afflicted the spirit of his holie one: and he was turned to be their enemie, and he conquered them.Ipsi autem ad iracundiam provocaverunt, / et afflixerunt spiritum Sancti ejus: / et conversus est eis in inimicum, / et ipse debellavit eos. 11And he remembered the days of old of Moses, and of his people: Where is he that brought them up out of the sea, with the shepherds of his flock? where is he that put in the midst of them the spirit of his Holy One?Ma si ricordò degli antichi giorni di Mosè, e del suo popolo. Dov' è colui, che dal mare li trasse con que', che pastori erano del suo gregge? Dov'è colui, che in mezzo a loro pose lo spirito del suo Santo?And he remembred the dayes of the world of Moyses, and of his people: where is he that brought them out of the sea, with the pastours of his flocke? Where is he that put in the middes of him the spirit of his holie one?Et recordatus est dierum sæculi Moysi, et populi sui. / Ubi est qui eduxit eos de mari / cum pastoribus gregis sui ? / Ubi est qui posuit in medio ejus / spiritum Sancti sui; 12He that brought out Moses by the right hand, by the arm of his majesty: that divided the waters before them, to make himself an everlasting name.Che stando al fianco di Mosè lo condusse col braccio della sua maestà, che in faccia ad essi divise le acque, per acquistarne rinomanza sempiterna?He that brought out Moyses to the right hand by the arme of his maiestie: that diuided the waters before them, that he might make to himself an euerlasting name.qui eduxit ad dexteram Moysen, / brachio majestatis suæ; / qui scidit aquas ante eos, / ut faceret sibi nomen sempiternum; 13He that led them out through the deep, as a horse in the wilderness that stumbleth not.Che per mezzo agli abissi guidolli, come si fa di un cavallo, che in piano deserto non ha inciampo.He that brought them out through the depthes, as an horse in the desert that stumbled not.qui eduxit eos per abyssos, / quasi equum in deserto / non impingentem ? 14As a beast that goeth down in the field, the spirit of the Lord was their leader: so didst thou lead thy people to make thyself a glorious name.Come giumento, che scende per una valle, lui condusse lo spirito del Signore: così tu (o Dio) fosti condottier del tuo popolo per farti nome di gloria.As the beast that goeth downe in the plaine filde, the spirit of our Lord was their conductor: so didst thou bring thy people that thou mightest make thee a name of glorie.Quasi animal in campo descendens, / spiritus Domini ductor ejus fuit. / Sic adduxisti populum tuum, / ut faceres tibi nomen gloriæ.

15Look down from heaven, and behold from thy holy habitation and the place of thy glory: where is thy zeal, and thy strength, the multitude of thy bowels, and of thy mercies? they have held back themselves from me.Pon mente dal cielo, e mira dal luogo santo, dove abiti tu, e la tua gloria: dov'è il tuo zelo, e la tua fortezza, la compassione delle tue viscere, e la molta tua misericordia? Elle si sono rattenute riguardo a me.Attend from heauen, and looke from thy holie habitation, & of thy glorie: where is thy zele, and thy strength, the multitude of thy bowels, and of thy mercies? they haue held backe them selues toward me.Attende de cælo, et vide / de habitaculo sancto tuo, et gloriæ tuæ. / Ubi est zelus tuus, et fortitudo tua, / multitudo viscerum tuorum et miserationum tuarum ? / Super me continuerunt se. 16For thou art our father, and Abraham hath not known us, and Israel hath been ignorant of us: thou, O Lord, art our father, our redeemer, from everlasting is thy name.Ma tu se' il nostro padre, e Abramo non ci conosce, e Israele non sa chi noi siamo. Tu, Signore, padre nostro, redentor nostro, questo è ab eterno il tuo nome.For thou art our father, and Abraham hath not knowen vs, and Israel hath bene ignorant of vs: thou ô Lord art our father, our redemer, from the begynning is thy name.Tu enim pater noster: / et Abraham nescivit nos, / et Israël ignoravit nos: / tu, Domine, pater noster, / redemptor noster, a sæculo nomen tuum. 17Why hast thou made us to err, O Lord, from thy ways: why hast thou hardened our heart, that we should not fear thee? return for the sake of thy servants, the tribes of thy inheritance.E perchè, o Signore, facesti tu, che noi deviassimo dalle tue vie; indurasti il cuor nostro, onde noi non avessimo timore di te? Volgiti a noi per amore de' servi tuoi, e delle tribù, che son tua eredità.Why hast thou made vs erre ô Lord from thy waies: hast thou hardned our hart, that we feared not thee? Returne for thy seruants, the tribes of thine inheritance.Quare errare nos fecisti, Domine, de viis tuis; / indurasti cor nostrum ne timeremus te ? / Convertere propter servos tuos, / tribus hæreditatis tuæ. 18They have possessed thy holy people as nothing: our enemies have trodden down thy sanctuary.Come di cosa da nulla si son fatti padroni del tuo popolo santo: i nostri nemici han conculcato il tuo santuario.As nothing haue they possessed thy holie people: our enemies haue troden downe thy sanctification.Quasi nihilum possederunt populum sanctum tuum: / hostes nostri conculcaverunt sanctificationem tuam.

19We are become as in the beginning, when thou didst not rule over us, and when we were not called by thy name.Siam divenuti come da principio, quando tu non avevi preso dominio di noi, e noi non portavamo il tuo nome.We are become as in the begynning, when thou didst not rule ouer vs, neither was thy name inuocated vpon vs.Facti sumus quasi in principio, cum non dominareris nostri, / neque invocaretur nomen tuum super nos.
