HOLY BIBLE: Isaiah 4 (original) (raw)

2 τῇ δὲ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἐπιλάμψει ὁ θεὸς ἐν βουλῇ μετὰ δόξης ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς τοῦ ὑψῶσαι καὶ δοξάσαι τὸ καταλειφθὲν τοῦ Ισραηλ 3 καὶ ἔσται τὸ ὑπολειφθὲν ἐν Σιων καὶ τὸ καταλειφθὲν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ ἅγιοι κληθήσονται πάντες οἱ γραφέντες εἰς ζωὴν ἐν Ιερουσαλημ 4 ὅτι ἐκπλυνεῖ κύριος τὸν ῥύπον τῶν υἱῶν καὶ τῶν θυγατέρων Σιων καὶ τὸ αἷμα ἐκκαθαριεῖ ἐκ μέσου αὐτῶν ἐν πνεύματι κρίσεως καὶ πνεύματι καύσεως 5 καὶ ἥξει καὶ ἔσται πᾶς τόπος τοῦ ὄρους Σιων καὶ πάντα τὰ περικύκλῳ αὐτῆς σκιάσει νεφέλη ἡμέρας καὶ ὡς καπνοῦ καὶ ὡς φωτὸς πυρὸς καιομένου νυκτός πάσῃ τῇ δόξῃ σκεπασθήσεται 6 καὶ ἔσται εἰς σκιὰν ἀπὸ καύματος καὶ ἐν σκέπῃ καὶ ἐν ἀποκρύφῳ ἀπὸ σκληρότητος καὶ ὑετοῦ

2 When that day comes, bud and fruit there shall be, of the Lord’s fostering; burgeoning of glory made manifest, harvest of our soil, the trophy of Israel’s gleanings.[1] 3 Set apart for him, all that dwell in Sion now, all that survive the city’s purging; none else will be left alive in Jerusalem, 4 when the Lord sweeps away the guilt of Sion’s women-folk, washes Jerusalem clean from the blood that stains her, with the searing breath of his judgement. 5 And over mount Sion, the shrine of his name, cloud shall hang by day, glowing haze by night, a veil for glory. 6 Canopy they shall have, to shade them from the day’s heat, a refuge to give them shelter from storm and rain.

2

In die illa,
erit germen Domini in magnificentia et gloria,
et fructus terræ sublimis, et exsultatio
his qui salvati fuerint de Israël.

3
Et erit: omnis qui relictus fuerit in Sion,
et residuus in Jerusalem,
Sanctus vocabitur,
omnis qui scriptus est in vita in Jerusalem. 4
Si abluerit Dominus sordes filiarum Sion,
et sanguinem Jerusalem laverit de medio ejus,
in spiritu judicii, et spiritu ardoris. 5
Et creabit Dominus super omnem locum montis Sion,
et ubi invocatus est,
nubem per diem et fumum,
et splendorem ignis flammantis in nocte:
super omnem enim gloriam protectio. 6
Et tabernaculum erit in umbraculum,
diei ab æstu,
et in securitatem et absconsionem
a turbine et a pluvia.

[1] Literally, ‘In that day there will be a bud (or, according to the Hebrew, a burgeoning) of the Lord, for magnificence and glory, and fruit of the earth high uplifted, a source of triumph to those in Israel who are saved’. Scholars are not agreed whether this is a direct or only an indirect reference to the coming of the Messias.
