DRC, VulgClementine, KJV - Isaiah - 57

57:1  The just perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart, and men of mercy are taken away, because there is none that understandeth; for the just man is taken away from before the face of evil.

57:1  Justus perit, et non est qui recogitet in corde suo ; et viri misericordiæ colliguntur, quia non est qui intelligat : a facie enim malitiæ collectus est justus.

57:1  The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.

57:2  Let peace come, let him rest in his bed that hath walked in his uprightness.

57:2  Veniat pax ; requiescat in cubili suo qui ambulavit in directione sua.

57:2  He shall enter into peace: they shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness.

57:3  But draw near hither, you sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer, and of the harlot.

57:3  Vos autem accedite huc, filii auguratricis, semen adulteri et fornicariæ.

57:3  But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the whore.

57:4  Upon whom have you jested? upon whom have you opened your mouth wide, and put out your tongue? are not you wicked children, a false seed,

57:4  Super quem lusistis ? super quem dilatastis os, et ejecistis linguam ? Numquid non vos filii scelesti, semen mendax,

57:4  Against whom do ye sport yourselves? against whom make ye a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,

57:5  Who seek your comfort in idols under every green tree, sacrificing children in the torrents, under the high rocks?

57:5  qui consolamini in diis subter omne lignum frondosum, immolantes parvulos in torrentibus, subter eminentes petras ?

57:5  Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks?

57:6  In the parts of the torrent is thy portion, this is thy lot: and thou hast poured out libations to them, thou hast offered sacrifice. Shall I not be angry at these things?

57:6  In partibus torrentis pars tua ; hæc est sors tua : et ipsis effudisti libamen, obtulisti sacrificium. Numquid super his non indignabor ?

57:6  Among the smooth stones of the stream is thy portion; they, they are thy lot: even to them hast thou poured a drink offering, thou hast offered a meat offering. Should I receive comfort in these?

57:7  Upon a high and lofty mountain thou hast laid thy bed, and hast gone up thither to offer victims.

57:7  Super montem excelsum et sublimem posuisti cubile tuum, et illuc ascendisti ut immolares hostias.

57:7  Upon a lofty and high mountain hast thou set thy bed: even thither wentest thou up to offer sacrifice.

57:8  And behind the door, and behind the post thou hast set up thy remembrance: for thou hast discovered thyself near me, and hast received an adulterer: thou hast enlarged thy bed, and made a covenant with them: thou hast loved their bed with open hand.

57:8  Et post ostium, et retro postem, posuisti memoriale tuum. Quia juxta me discooperuisti, et suscepisti adulterum, dilatasti cubile tuum, et pepigisti cum eis fœdus ; dilexisti stratum eorum manu aperta.

57:8  Behind the doors also and the posts hast thou set up thy remembrance: for thou hast discovered thyself to another than me, and art gone up; thou hast enlarged thy bed, and made thee a covenant with them; thou lovedst their bed where thou sawest it.

57:9  And thou hast adorned thyself for the king with ointment, and hast multiplied thy perfumes. Thou hast sent thy messengers far off, and wast debased even to hell.

57:9  Et ornasti te regi unguento, et multiplicasti pigmenta tua. Misisti legatos tuos procul, et humiliata es usque ad inferos.

57:9  And thou wentest to the king with ointment, and didst increase thy perfumes, and didst send thy messengers far off, and didst debase thyself even unto hell.

57:10  Thou hast been wearied in the multitude of thy ways: yet thou saidst not: I will rest: thou has found life of thy hand, therefore thou hast not asked.

57:10  In multitudine viæ tuæ laborasti ; non dixisti : Quiescam. Vitam manus tuæ invenisti ; propterea non rogasti.

57:10  Thou art wearied in the greatness of thy way; yet saidst thou not, There is no hope: thou hast found the life of thine hand; therefore thou wast not grieved.

57:11  For whom hast thou been solicitous and afraid, that thou hast lied, and hast not been mindful of me, nor thought on me in thy heart? for I am silent, and as one that seeth not, and thou hast forgotten me.

57:11  Pro quo sollicita timuisti, quia mentita es, et mei non es recordata, neque cogitasti in corde tuo ? Quia ego tacens et quasi non videns, et mei oblita es.

57:11  And of whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast lied, and hast not remembered me, nor laid it to thy heart? have not I held my peace even of old, and thou fearest me not?

57:12  I will declare thy justice, and thy works shall not profit thee.

57:12  Ego annuntiabo justitiam tuam, et opera tua non proderunt tibi.

57:12  I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee.

57:13  When thou shalt cry, let thy companies deliver thee, but the wind shall carry them all off, a breeze shall take them away, but he that putteth his trust in me, shall inherit the land, and shall possess my holy mount.

57:13  Cum clamaveris, liberent te congregati tui, et omnes eos auferet ventus, tollet aura. Qui autem fiduciam habet mei, hæreditabit terram, et possidebit montem sanctum meum.

57:13  When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take them: but he that putteth his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain;

57:14  And I will say: Make a way: give free passage, turn out of the path, take away the stumblingblocks out of the way of my people.

57:14  Et dicam : Viam facite, præbete iter ; declinate de semita, auferte offendicula de via populi mei.

57:14  And shall say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of my people.

57:15  For thus saith the High and the Eminent that inhabiteth eternity: and his name is Holy, who dwelleth in the high and holy place, and with a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.

57:15  Quia hæc dicit Excelsus, et Sublimis, habitans æternitatem, et sanctum nomen ejus : in excelso et in sancto habitans, et cum contrito et humili spiritu : ut vivificet spiritum humilium, et vivificet cor contritorum.

57:15  For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

57:16  For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be angry unto the end: because the spirit shall go forth from my face, and breathings I will make.

57:16  Non enim in sempiternum litigabo, neque usque ad finem irascar, quia spiritus a facie mea egredietur, et flatus ego faciam.

57:16  For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth: for the spirit should fail before me, and the souls which I have made.

57:17  For the iniquity of his covetousness I was angry, and I struck him: I hid my face from thee, and was angry: and he went away wandering in his own heart.

57:17  Propter iniquitatem avaritiæ ejus iratus sum, et percussi eum. Abscondi a te faciem meam, et indignatus sum ; et abiit vagus in via cordis sui.

57:17  For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and smote him: I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart.

57:18  I saw his ways, and I healed him, and brought him back, and restored comforts to him, and to them that mourn for him.

57:18  Vias ejus vidi, et sanavi eum ; et reduxi eum, et reddidi consolationes ipsi, et lugentibus ejus.

57:18  I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.

57:19  I created the fruit of the lips, peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, said the Lord, and I healed him.

57:19  Creavi fructum labiorum pacem ; pacem ei qui longe est et qui prope, dixit Dominus, et sanavi eum.

57:19  I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the Lord; and I will heal him.

57:20  But the wicked are like the raging sea, which cannot rest, and the waves thereof cast up dirt and mire.

57:20  Impii autem quasi mare fervens, quod quiescere non potest, et redundant fluctus ejus in conculcationem et lutum.

57:20  But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.

57:21  There is no peace to the wicked, saith the Lord God.

57:21  Non est pax impiis, dicit Dominus Deus.

57:21  There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.
