9 — Isaia

1At the first time the land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephtali was lightly touched: and at the last the way of the sea beyond the Jordan of the Galilee of the Gentiles was heavily loaded.Primamente fu meno afflitta la terra di Zàbulon, e la terra di Nephthali, e dipoi fu gravemente percossa la via al mare, la Galilea delle nazioni di là dal Giordano.AT the first time was the land of Zabulon alleuiated: and the land of Nepthali: and at the last was aggrauated the way of the sea beyond Iordan of Galilee of the Gentiles.Primo tempore alleviata est / terra Zabulon et terra Nephthali: / et novissimo aggravata est via maris / trans Jordanem Galilææ gentium. 2The people that walked in darkness, have seen a great light: to them that dwelt in the region of the shadow of death, light is risen.Il popolo, che camminava tralle tenebre, vide una gran luce: la luce si levò per quegli, che abitavano nella oscura region di morte.The people that walked in darknes, hath sene great light: to them that dwelt in the countrie of the shadow of death, light is risen.Populus qui ambulabat in tenebris, / vidit lucem magnam; / habitantibus in regione umbræ mortis, / lux orta est eis. 3Thou hast multiplied the nation, and hast not increased the joy. They shall rejoice before thee, as they that rejoice in the harvest, as conquerors rejoice after taking a prey, when they divide the spoils.Tu hai innalzata la nazione, ma non hai accresciuta la letizia. Si allegreranno dinanzi a te come quegli, che si rallegrano della messe, come esultano i vincitori fatti padroni della preda, allorché dividon le spoglie.Thou hast multiplied the nation, and not magnified the ioy. They shal reioyce before thee, as they that reioyce in haruest, as conquerors reioyce after a pray is taken, when they diuide the spoiles.Multiplicasti gentem, / et non magnificasti lætitiam. / Lætabuntur coram te, sicut qui lætantur in messe; / sicut exsultant victores capta præda, quando dividunt spolia. 4For the yoke of their burden, and the rod of their shoulder, and the sceptre of their oppressor thou hast overcome, as in the day of Madian.Imperocché il giogo oneroso di lui, e la verga infesta a' suoi omeri, e il bastone del suo esattore tu gli superasti, come nella giornata di Madian.For the yoke of their burden, and the rod of their shoulder, and the scepter of their exactour thou hast ouercome, as in the day of Madian.Jugum enim oneris ejus, / et virgam humeri ejus, / et sceptrum exactoris ejus / superasti, sicut in die Madian.

5For every violent taking of spoils, with tumult, and garment mingled with blood, shall be burnt, and be fuel for the fire.Perocché ogni violenta depredazione (sarà) con tumulto: e le vesti intrise di sangue saranno arse, fatte cibo del fuoco.Because al violent taking of pray with tumult, and garment mingled with bloud, shal be to be burnt, and foode for the fyre.Quia omnis violentia prædatio cum tumultu, / et vestimentum mistum sanguine, / erit in combustionem, / et cibus ignis. 6For a CHILD IS BORN to us, and a son is given to us, and the government is upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, God the Mighty, the Father of the world to come, the Prince of Peace.Conciossiachè un pargoletto è nato a noi, e il figlio è dato a noi, ed ha sopra gli omeri suoi il principato, ed ei si chiamerà per nome l'Ammirabile, il Consigliere, Dio, il Forte, il Padre del secolo futuro, il Principe di pace.For A LITLE CHILD IS BORNE TO VS, and a sonne is geuen to vs, and principalitie is made vpon his shoulder: and his name shal be called, Meruelous, Counseler, God, Strong, Father of the world to come, the Prince of peace.Parvulus enim natus est nobis, / et filius datus est nobis, / et factus est principatus super humerum ejus: / et vocabitur nomen ejus, / Admirabilis, Consiliarius, Deus, Fortis, / Pater futuri sæculi, Princeps pacis. 7His empire shall be multiplied, and there shall be no end of peace: he shall sit upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom; to establish it and strengthen it with judgment and with justice, from henceforth and for ever: the zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.L'impero di lui sarà amplificato, e la pace non avrà fine: ei sederà sul trono di David, e avrà il regno di lui, per assodarlo, e corroborarlo rendendo ragione, e facendo giustizia da ora in poi, e sino in sempiterno. Lo zelo del Signor degli eserciti farà tal cosa.His empire shal be multiplied, and there shal be no end of peace: he shal sit vpon the throne of Dauid, and vpon his kingdom: that he may confirme it, and strengthen it in iudgement and iustice, from this time & for euer: the zeale of the Lord of hostes shal doe this.Multiplicabitur ejus imperium, / et pacis non erit finis; / super solium David, et super regnum ejus sedebit, / ut confirmet illud et corroboret / in judicio et justitia, / amodo usque in sempiternum: / zelus Domini exercituum faciet hoc. 8The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.Il Signore ha lanciata una parola contro Giacobbe, ed ella è caduta sopra Israele.Our Lord hath sent a word into Iacob, and it is fallen in Israel.Verbum misit Dominus in Jacob, / et cecidit in Israël.

9And all the people of Ephraim shall know, and the inhabitants of Samaria that say in the pride and haughtiness of their heart:E se ne avvedrà tutto il popolo di Ephraim, e gli abitatori della Samaria, i quali superbi, e gonfi di cuore, dicono:And al the people of Ephraim shal know, & the inhabitans of Samaria, saying in pride & greatnes of hart:Et sciet omnis populus Ephraim, / et habitantes Samariam, / in superbia et magnitudine cordis dicentes: 10The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with square stones: they have cut down the sycamores, but we will change them for cedars.Son rovinati i mattoni, ma noi farem le fabbriche di pietra quadra: han tagliati i sicomori, ma noi metteremo in quella vece de' cedri.Brickes are fallen, but we wil build with square stones: they haue cut downe sycomores, but we wil change them into ceders.Lateres ceciderunt, sed quadris lapidibus ædificabimus; / sycomoros succiderunt, sed cedros immutabimus. 11And the Lord shall set up the enemies of Rasin over him, and shall bring on his enemies in a crowd:Ma il Signore farà superiori a Rasin i nemici di lui, e riunirà in folla i nemici contro Ephraim:And our Lord shal lifte vp the enemies of Rasin ouer him, and shal turne his enemies into tumult.Et elevabit Dominus hostes Rasin super eum, / et inimicos ejus in tumultum vertet. 12The Syrians from the east, and, the Philistines from the west: and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his indignation is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.La Siria dall'oriente, e i Filistei dall'occidente, e divoreranno a piene ganasce Israele: per tutto questo il furore di lui non dà indietro, ma stesa è tuttor la sua mano;Syria from the East, and the Philisthims from the West: and they shal deuoure Israel with ful mouth. In al these thinges his furie is not turned away, but his hand is yet stretched forth.Syriam ab oriente, et Philisthiim ab occidente; / et devorabunt Israël toto ore. / In omnibus his non est aversus furor ejus, / sed adhuc manus ejus extenta. 13And the people are not returned to him who hath struck them, and have not sought after the Lord of hosts.Perocché il mio popolo non si è rivolto a lui, che lo percuote, e non ha cercato il Signore degli eserciti:And the people is not returned to him, who hath strooken them, and haue not sought after the Lord of hostes.Et populus non est reversus ad percutientem se, / et Dominum exercituum non inquisierunt.

14And the Lord shall destroy out of Israel the head and the tail, him that bendeth down, and him that holdeth back, in one day.E il Signore dispergerà d'Israele in un sol giorno il capo, e la coda; que' che stanno a capo basso, e quelli, che li governano.And our Lord shal destroy from Israel the head & the tayle, the peruerter and restrayner in one day.Et disperdet Dominus ab Israël caput et caudam, / incurvantem et refrenantem, die una. 15The aged and honourable, he is the head: and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.L'uomo di età, e rispettabile è il capo; il profeta, che spaccia bugie, è la coda.The aged and honorable, he is the head, & the prophet that teacheth a lie, he is the tayle.Longævus et honorabilis, ipse est caput; / et propheta docens mendacium, ipse est cauda. 16And they that call this people blessed, shall cause them to err: and they that are called blessed, shall be thrown down, headlong.E que', che beato chiamano questo popolo, seducendolo; e que', che son detti beati, anderanno in perdizione:And they that cal this people blessed, seducing them: and that are called blessed, shal be throwen headlong.Et erunt qui beatificant populum istum, seducentes; / et qui beatificantur, præcipitati. 17Therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men: neither shall he have mercy on their fatherless, and widows: for every one is a hypocrite and wicked, and every mouth hath spoken folly. For all this his indignation is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.Per questo il Signore non avrà tenerezza pe' giovanetti di esso popolo, né avrà compassione de' pupilli, né delle vedove di lui; perchè egli è tutto quanto ipocrita, e malvagio: e tutte quante le bocche parlano stoltezza. Per tutte queste cose il furore di lui non dà indietro: ma stesa è tuttora la sua mano.For this cause our Lord shal not reioyce vpon their yong men: and on their pupilles, and widowes he shal not haue mercie: because euerie one is an hypocrite & wicked, and euerie mouth hath spoken follie. In al these thinges his furie is not turned away, but his hand is yet stretched forth.Propter hoc super adolescentulis ejus non lætabitur Dominus, / et pupillorum ejus et viduarum non miserebitur: / quia omnis hypocrita est et nequam, / et universum os locutum est stultitiam; / in omnibus his non est aversus furor ejus, / sed adhuc manus ejus extenta. 18For wickedness is kindled as a fire, it shall devour the brier and the thorn: and shall kindle in the thicket of the forest, and it shall be wrapped up in smoke ascending on high.Imperocché l'empietà si è accesa qual fuoco, che divora gli sterpi, e le spine, e prende rigoglio nel più folto della boscaglia, e si alza in globi un fumo superbo.For impietie is kindled as a fyre, it shal deuoure bryer and thorne: and it shal be kindled in the thicket of the forest, and it shal be wrapped vp together in the pride of smoke.Succensa est enim quasi ignis impietas: / veprem et spinam vorabit, / et succendetur in densitate saltus, / et convolvetur superbia fumi.

19By the wrath of the Lord of hosts the land is troubled, and the people shall be as fuel for the fire: no man shall spare his brother.Pell'ira del Signor degli eserciti è in turbamento la terra, e il popolo sarà quasi esca del fuoco; l'uomo non la perdonerà al proprio fratello.In the wrath of the Lord of hostes the earth is trubled, and the people shal be foode for the fyre: man shal not spare his brother.In ira Domini exercituum conturbata est terra, / et erit populus quasi esca ignis; / vir fratri suo non parcet. 20And he shall turn to the right hand, and shall be hungry: and shall eat on the left hand, and shall not be filled: every one shall eat the flesh of his own arm: Manasses Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasses, and they together shall be against Juda.E si volterà a destra, e avrà ancor fame, e mangerà a sinistra, e neppure sarà satollo: divorerà ognuno la carne dello stesso suo braccio. Manasse (divorerà) Ephraim, ed Ephraim Manasse: questi poi uniti contro di Giuda.And he shal decline to the right hand, and shal be hungrie: and shal eate on the left hand, and shal not be filled: euerie one shal eate the flesh of his arme: Manasses Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasses, they together against Iuda.Et declinabit ad dexteram, et esuriet; / et comedet ad sinistram, et non saturabitur; / unusquisque carnem brachii sui vorabit: / Manasses Ephraim, et Ephraim Manassen; / simul ipsi contra Judam. 21After all these things his indignation is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.Per tutte queste cose il furore di lui non dà indietro; ma stesa è tuttor la sua mano.In al these thinges his furie is not turned away, but his hand is yet stretched forth.In omnibus his non est aversus furor ejus, / sed adhuc manus ejus extenta.
