DRC, VulgClementine, KJV - Isaiah - 26

26:1  In that day shall this canticle be sung in the land of Juda. Sion the city of our strength a saviour, a wall and a bulwark shall be set therein.

26:1  In die illa cantabitur canticum istud in terra Juda : Urbs fortitudinis nostræ Sion ; salvator ponetur in ea murus et antemurale.

26:1  In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah; We have a strong city; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks.

26:2  Open ye the gates, and let the just nation, that keepeth the truth, enter in.

26:2  Aperite portas, et ingrediatur gens justa, custodiens veritatem.

26:2  Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in.

26:3  The old error is passed away: thou wilt keep peace: peace, because we have hoped in thee.

26:3  Vetus error abiit : servabis pacem ; pacem, quia in te speravimus.

26:3  Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

26:4  You have hoped in the Lord for evermore, in the Lord God mighty for ever.

26:4  Sperastis in Domino in sæculis æternis ; in Domino Deo forti in perpetuum.

26:4  Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength:

26:5  For he shall bring down them that dwell on high, the high city he shall lay low. He shall bring it down even to the ground, he shall pull it down even to the dust.

26:5  Quia incurvabit habitantes in excelso ; civitatem sublimem humiliabit : humiliabit eam usque ad terram, detrahet eam usque ad pulverem.

26:5  For he bringeth down them that dwell on high; the lofty city, he layeth it low; he layeth it low, even to the ground; he bringeth it even to the dust.

26:6  The foot shall tread it down, the feet of the poor, the steps of the needy.

26:6  Conculcabit eam pes, pedes pauperis, gressus egenorum.

26:6  The foot shall tread it down, even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy.

26:7  The way of the just is right, the path of the just is right to walk in.

26:7  Semita justi recta est, rectus callis justi ad ambulandum.

26:7  The way of the just is uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just.

26:8  And in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, we have patiently waited for thee: thy name, and thy remembrance are the desire of the soul.

26:8  Et in semita judiciorum tuorum, Domine, sustinuimus te : nomen tuum et memoriale tuum in desiderio animæ.

26:8  Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for thee; the desire of our soul is to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee.

26:9  My soul hath desired thee in the night: yea, and with my spirit within me in the morning early I will watch to thee. When thou shalt do thy judgments on the earth, the inhabitants of the world shall learn justice.

26:9  Anima mea desideravit te in nocte, sed et spiritu meo in præcordiis meis de mane vigilabo ad te. Cum feceris judicia tua in terra, justitiam discent habitatores orbis.

26:9  With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.

26:10  Let us have pity on the wicked, but he will not learn justice: in the land of the saints he hath done wicked things, and he shall not see the glory of the Lord.

26:10  Misereamur impio, et non discet justitiam ; in terra sanctorum iniqua gessit, et non videbit gloriam Domini.

26:10  Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the Lord.

26:11  Lord, let thy hand be exalted, and let them not see: let the envious people see, and be confounded: and let fire devour thy enemies.

26:11  Domine, exaltetur manus tua, et non videant ; videant, et confundantur zelantes populi ; et ignis hostes tuos devoret.

26:11  Lord, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.

26:12  Lord, thou wilt give us peace: for thou hast wrought all our works for us.

26:12  Domine, dabis pacem nobis : omnia enim opera nostra operatus es nobis.

26:12  Lord, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our works in us.

26:13  O Lord our God, other lords besides thee have had dominion over us, only in thee let us remember thy name.

26:13  Domine Deus noster, possederunt nos domini absque te ; tantum in te recordemur nominis tui.

26:13  O Lord our God, other lords beside thee have had dominion over us: but by thee only will we make mention of thy name.

26:14  Let not the dead live, let not the giants rise again: therefore hast visited and destroyed them, and hast destroyed all their memory.

26:14  Morientes non vivant, gigantes non resurgant : propterea visitasti et contrivisti eos, et perdidisti omnem memoriam eorum.

26:14  They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish.

26:15  Thou hast been favourable to the nation, O Lord, thou hast been favourable to the nation: art thou glorified? thou hast removed all the ends of the earth far off.

26:15  Indulsisti genti, Domine, indulsisti genti, numquid glorificatus es ? elongasti omnes terminos terræ.

26:15  Thou hast increased the nation, O Lord, thou hast increased the nation: thou art glorified: thou hadst removed it far unto all the ends of the earth.

26:16  Lord, they have sought after thee in distress, in the tribulation of murmuring thy instruction was with them.

26:16  Domine, in angustia requisierunt te, in tribulatione murmuris doctrina tua eis.

26:16  Lord, in trouble have they visited thee, they poured out a prayer when thy chastening was upon them.

26:17  As a woman with child, when she draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs: so are we become in thy presence, O Lord.

26:17  Sicut quæ concipit, cum appropinquaverit ad partum, dolens clamat in doloribus suis, sic facti sumus a facie tua, Domine.

26:17  Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs; so have we been in thy sight, O Lord.

26:18  We have conceived, and been as it were in labour, and have brought forth wind: we have not wrought salvation on the earth, therefore the inhabitants of the earth have not fallen.

26:18  Concepimus, et quasi parturivimus, et peperimus spiritum. Salutes non fecimus in terra ; ideo non ceciderunt habitatores terræ.

26:18  We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.

26:19  Thy dead men shall live, my slain shall rise again: awake, and give praise, ye that dwell in the dust: for thy dew is the dew of the light: and the land of the giants thou shalt pull down into ruin.

26:19  Vivent mortui tui, interfecti mei resurgent. Expergiscimini, et laudate, qui habitatis in pulvere, quia ros lucis ros tuus, et terram gigantum detrahes in ruinam.

26:19  Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

26:20  Go, my people, enter into thy chambers, shut thy doors upon thee, hide thyself a little for a moment, until the indignation pass away.

26:20  Vade, populus meus, intra in cubicula tua ; claude ostia tua super te, abscondere modicum ad momentum, donec pertranseat indignatio.

26:20  Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.

26:21  For behold the Lord will come out of his place, to visit the iniquity of the inhabitant of the earth against him: and the earth shall disclose her blood, and shall cover her slain no more.

26:21  Ecce enim Dominus egredietur de loco suo, ut visitet iniquitatem habitatoris terræ contra eum ; et revelabit terra sanguinem suum, et non operiet ultra interfectos suos.

26:21  For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
