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 beside^{657 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 beside^{657 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 that^{4480 834} shall come⁹³⁵ upon⁵⁹²¹ thee.

14  Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ they shall be¹⁹⁶¹ as stubble;⁷¹⁷⁹ the fire⁷⁸⁴ shall burn⁸³¹³ them; they shall not³⁸⁰⁸ deliver^{5337 853} themselves⁵³¹⁵ from the power^{4480 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.]
