Isaiah 47

KJV

1  Come down,3381 and sit3427 in5921 the dust,6083 O virgin1330 daughter1323 of Babylon,894 sit3427 on the ground:776 there is no369 throne,3678 O daughter1323 of the Chaldeans:3778 for3588 thou shalt no3808 more3254 be called7121 tender7390 and delicate.6028

2  Take3947 the millstones,7347 and grind2912 meal:7058 uncover1540 thy locks,6777 make bare2834 the leg,7640 uncover1540 the thigh,7785 pass over5674 the rivers.5104

3  Thy nakedness6172 shall be uncovered,1540 yea,1571 thy shame2781 shall be seen:7200 I will take3947 vengeance,5359 and I will not3808 meet6293 thee as a man.120

4  As for our redeemer,1350 the LORD3068 of hosts6635 is his name,8034 the Holy One6918 of Israel.3478

5  Sit3427 thou silent,1748 and get935 thee into darkness,2822 O daughter1323 of the Chaldeans:3778 for3588 thou shalt no3808 more3254 be called,7121 The lady1404 of kingdoms.4467

6  I was wroth7107 with5921 my people,5971 I have polluted2490 mine inheritance,5159 and given5414 them into thine hand:3027 thou didst show7760 them no3808 mercy;7356 upon5921 the ancient2205 hast thou very3966 heavily laid3513 thy yoke.5923

7  And thou saidst,559 I shall be1961 a lady1404 forever:5769 so that5704 thou didst not3808 lay7760 these428 things to5921 thy heart,3820 neither3808 didst remember2142 the latter end319 of it.

8  Therefore hear8085 now6258 this,2063 thou that art given to pleasures,5719 that dwellest3427 carelessly,983 that sayest559 in thine heart,3824 I589 am, and none else beside657 5750 me; I shall not3808 sit3427 as a widow,490 neither3808 shall I know3045 the loss of children:7908

9  But these428 two8147 things shall come935 to thee in a moment7281 in one259 day,3117 the loss of children,7908 and widowhood:489 they shall come935 upon5921 thee in their perfection8537 for the multitude7230 of thy sorceries,3785 and for the great3966 abundance6109 of thine enchantments.2267

10  For thou hast trusted982 in thy wickedness:7451 thou hast said,559 None369 seeth7200 me. Thy wisdom2451 and thy knowledge,1847 it1931 hath perverted7725 thee; and thou hast said559 in thine heart,3820 I589 am, and none else beside657 5750 me.

11  Therefore shall evil7451 come935 upon5921 thee; thou shalt not3808 know3045 from whence it riseth:7837 and mischief1943 shall fall5307 upon5921 thee; thou shalt not3808 be able3201 to put it off:3722 and desolation7722 shall come935 upon5921 thee suddenly,6597 which thou shalt not3808 know.3045

12  Stand5975 now4994 with thine enchantments,2267 and with the multitude7230 of thy sorceries,3785 wherein834 thou hast labored3021 from thy youth;4480 5271 if so be194 thou shalt be able3201 to profit,3276 if so be194 thou mayest prevail.6206

13  Thou art wearied3811 in the multitude7230 of thy counsels.6098 Let now4994 the astrologers,1895 8064 the stargazers,2372 3556 the monthly2320 prognosticators,3045 stand up,5975 and save3467 thee from these things that4480 834 shall come935 upon5921 thee.

14  Behold,2009 they shall be1961 as stubble;7179 the fire784 shall burn8313 them; they shall not3808 deliver5337 853 themselves5315 from the power4480 3027 of the flame:3852 there shall not369 be a coal1513 to warm2552 at, nor fire217 to sit3427 before5048 it.

15  Thus3651 shall they be1961 unto thee with whom834 thou hast labored,3021 even thy merchants,5503 from thy youth:4480 5271 they shall wander8582 every one376 to his quarter;5676 none369 shall save3467 thee.

1 κατάβηθι κάθισον ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν παρθένος θυγάτηρ Βαβυλῶνος εἴσελθε εἰς τὸ σκότος θυγάτηρ Χαλδαίων ὅτι οὐκέτι προστεθήσῃ κληθῆναι ἁπαλὴ καὶ τρυφερά

2 λαβὲ μύλον ἄλεσον ἄλευρον ἀποκάλυψαι τὸ κατακάλυμμά σου ἀνακάλυψαι τὰς πολιάς ἀνάσυραι τὰς κνήμας διάβηθι ποταμούς

3 ἀνακαλυφθήσεται ἡ αἰσχύνη σου φανήσονται οἱ ὀνειδισμοί σου τὸ δίκαιον ἐκ σοῦ λήμψομαι οὐκέτι μὴ παραδῶ ἀνθρώποις

4 εἶπεν ὁ ῥυσάμενός σε κύριος σαβαωθ ὄνομα αὐτῷ ἅγιος Ισραηλ

5 κάθισον κατανενυγμένη εἴσελθε εἰς τὸ σκότος θυγάτηρ Χαλδαίων οὐκέτι μὴ κληθῇς ἰσχὺς βασιλείας

6 παρωξύνθην ἐπὶ τῷ λαῷ μου ἐμίανας τὴν κληρονομίαν μου ἐγὼ ἔδωκα εἰς τὴν χεῖρά σου σὺ δὲ οὐκ ἔδωκας αὐτοῖς ἔλεος τοῦ πρεσβυτέρου ἐβάρυνας τὸν ζυγὸν σφόδρα

7 καὶ εἶπας εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἔσομαι ἄρχουσα οὐκ ἐνόησας ταῦτα ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ σου οὐδὲ ἐμνήσθης τὰ ἔσχατα

8 νῦν δὲ ἄκουσον ταῦτα ἡ τρυφερὰ ἡ καθημένη πεποιθυῖα ἡ λέγουσα ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῆς ἐγώ εἰμι καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἑτέρα οὐ καθιῶ χήρα οὐδὲ γνώσομαι ὀρφανείαν

9 νῦν δὲ ἥξει ἐξαίφνης ἐπὶ σὲ τὰ δύο ταῦτα ἐν μιᾷ ἡμέρᾳ χηρεία καὶ ἀτεκνία ἥξει ἐξαίφνης ἐπὶ σὲ ἐν τῇ φαρμακείᾳ σου ἐν τῇ ἰσχύι τῶν ἐπαοιδῶν σου σφόδρα

10 τῇ ἐλπίδι τῆς πονηρίας σου σὺ γὰρ εἶπας ἐγώ εἰμι καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἑτέρα γνῶθι ὅτι ἡ σύνεσις τούτων καὶ ἡ πορνεία σου ἔσται σοι αἰσχύνη καὶ εἶπας τῇ καρδίᾳ σου ἐγώ εἰμι καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἑτέρα

11 καὶ ἥξει ἐπὶ σὲ ἀπώλεια καὶ οὐ μὴ γνῷς βόθυνος καὶ ἐμπεσῇ εἰς αὐτόν καὶ ἥξει ἐπὶ σὲ ταλαιπωρία καὶ οὐ μὴ δυνήσῃ καθαρὰ γενέσθαι καὶ ἥξει ἐπὶ σὲ ἐξαπίνης ἀπώλεια καὶ οὐ μὴ γνῷς

12 στῆθι νῦν ἐν ταῖς ἐπαοιδαῖς σου καὶ τῇ πολλῇ φαρμακείᾳ σου ἃ ἐμάνθανες ἐκ νεότητός σου εἰ δυνήσῃ ὠφεληθῆναι

13 κεκοπίακας ἐν ταῖς βουλαῖς σου στήτωσαν καὶ σωσάτωσάν σε οἱ ἀστρολόγοι τοῦ οὐρανοῦ οἱ ὁρῶντες τοὺς ἀστέρας ἀναγγειλάτωσάν σοι τί μέλλει ἐπὶ σὲ ἔρχεσθαι

14 ἰδοὺ πάντες ὡς φρύγανα ἐπὶ πυρὶ κατακαήσονται καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐξέλωνται τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτῶν ἐκ φλογός ὅτι ἔχεις ἄνθρακας πυρός κάθισαι ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς

15 οὗτοι ἔσονταί σοι βοήθεια ἐκοπίασας ἐν τῇ μεταβολῇ σου ἐκ νεότητος ἄνθρωπος καθ᾽ ἑαυτὸν ἐπλανήθη σοὶ δὲ οὐκ ἔσται σωτηρία

Vul

1 [Descende, sede in pulvere,
virgo filia Babylon:
sede in terra; non est solium
filiæ Chaldæorum,
quia ultra non vocaberis
mollis et tenera.

2 Tolle molam, et mole farinam;
denuda turpitudinem tuam;
discooperi humerum, revela crura,
transi flumina.

3 Revelabitur ignominia tua,
et videbitur opprobrium tuum;
ultionem capiam, et non resistet mihi homo.

4 Redemptor noster, Dominus exercituum nomen illius,
Sanctus Israël.

5 Sede tacens, et intra in tenebras,
filia Chaldæorum,
quia non vocaberis ultra
domina regnorum.

6 Iratus sum super populum meum:
contaminavi hæreditatem meam,
et dedi eos in manu tua:
non posuisti eis misericordias;
super senem aggravasti jugum tuum valde.

7 Et dixisti: In sempiternum ero domina.
Non posuisti hæc super cor tuum,
neque recordata es novissimi tui.

8 Et nunc audi hæc delicata,
et habitans confidenter,
quæ dicis in corde tuo:
Ego sum, et non est præter me amplius;
non sedebo vidua,
et ignorabo sterilitatem.

9 Venient tibi duo hæc
subito in die una,
sterilitas et viduitas:
universa venerunt super te,
propter multitudinem maleficiorum tuorum,
et propter duritiam incantatorum tuorum vehementem.

10 Et fiduciam habuisti in malitia tua,
et dixisti: Non est qui videat me.
Sapientia tua et scientia tua,
hæc decepit te.
Et dixisti in corde tuo:
Ego sum, et præter me non est altera.

11 Veniet super te malum,
et nescies ortum ejus;
et irruet super te calamitas
quam non poteris expiare;
veniet super te repente miseria
quam nescies.

12 Sta cum incantatoribus tuis
et cum multitudine maleficiorum tuorum,
in quibus laborasti ab adolescentia tua,
si forte quod prosit tibi,
aut si possis fieri fortior.

13 Defecisti in multitudine consiliorum tuorum.
Stent, et salvent te
augures cæli,
qui contemplabantur sidera,
et supputabant menses,
ut ex eis annuntiarent ventura tibi.

14 Ecce facti sunt quasi stipula,
ignis combussit eos;
non liberabunt animam suam
de manu flammæ;
non sunt prunæ quibus calefiant,
nec focus ut sedeant ad eum.

15 Sic facta sunt tibi in quibuscumque laboraveras:
negotiatores tui ab adolescentia tua,
unusquisque in via sua erraverunt;
non est qui salvet te.]
