Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Now in the days that Ahaz son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, was king of Judah, Rezin king of Aram marched up to wage war against Jerusalem. He was accompanied by Pekah son of Remaliah the king of Israel, but he could not overpower the city.
1Et factum est in diebus Achaz, filii Joathan, filii Oziæ, regis Juda, ascendit Rasin, rex Syriæ, et Phacee, filius Romeliæ, rex Israël, in Jerusalem, ad præliandum contra eam: et non potuerunt
2When it was reported to the house of David that Aram was in league with Ephraim, the hearts of Ahaz and his people trembled like trees in the forest shaken by the wind.
2debellare eam. Et nuntiaverunt domui David, dicentes: Requievit Syria super Ephraim. Et commotum est cor ejus, et cor populi ejus, sicut moventur ligna silvarum a facie venti.
3Then the LORD said to Isaiah, “Go out with your son Shear-jashub to meet Ahaz at the end of the aqueduct that feeds the upper pool, on the road to the Launderer’s Field,
3Et dixit Dominus ad Isaiam: Egredere in occursum Achaz, tu et qui derelictus est Jasub, filius tuus, ad extremum aquæductus piscinæ superioris in via agri Fullonis;
4and say to him: Calm down and be quiet. Do not be afraid or disheartened over these two smoldering stubs of firewood—over the fierce anger of Rezin and Aram and of the son of Remaliah.
4et dices ad eum: [Vide ut sileas; noli timere, et cor tuum ne formidet a duabus caudis titionum fumigantium istorum, in ira furoris Rasin, regis Syriæ, et filii Romeliæ;
5For Aram, along with Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, has plotted your ruin, saying:
5eo quod consilium inierit contra te Syria in malum, Ephraim, et filius Romeliæ, dicentes:
6‘Let us invade Judah, terrorize it, and divide it among ourselves. Then we can install the son of Tabeal over it as king.’
6Ascendamus ad Judam, et suscitemus eum, et avellamus eum ad nos, et ponamus regem in medio ejus filium Tabeel.
7But this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘It will not arise; it will not happen.
7Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Non stabit, et non erit istud;
8For the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin. Within sixty-five years Ephraim will be shattered as a people.
8sed caput Syriæ Damascus, et caput Damasci Rasin; et adhuc sexaginta et quinque anni, et desinet Ephraim esse populus;
9The head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah. If you do not stand firm in your faith, then you will not stand at all.’”
9et caput Ephraim Samaria, et caput Samariæ filius Romeliæ. Si non credideritis, non permanebitis.]
10Again the LORD spoke to Ahaz, saying,
10Et adjecit Dominus loqui ad Achaz, dicens:
11“Ask for a sign from the LORD your God, whether from the depths of Sheol or the heights of heaven.”
11Pete tibi signum a Domino Deo tuo, in profundum inferni, sive in excelsum supra.
12But Ahaz replied, “I will not ask; I will not test the LORD.”
12Et dixit Achaz: Non petam, et non tentabo Dominum.
13Then Isaiah said, “Hear now, O house of David! Is it not enough to try the patience of men? Will you try the patience of my God as well?
13Et dixit: [Audite ergo, domus David. Numquid parum vobis est molestos esse hominibus, quia molesti estis et Deo meo?
14Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call Him Immanuel.
14Propter hoc dabit Dominus ipse vobis signum: ecce virgo concipiet, et pariet filium, et vocabitur nomen ejus Emmanuel.
15By the time He knows enough to reject evil and choose good, He will be eating curds and honey.
15Butyrum et mel comedet, ut sciat reprobare malum, et eligere bonum.
16For before the boy knows enough to reject evil and choose good, the land of the two kings you dread will be laid waste.
16Quia antequam sciat puer reprobare malum et eligere bonum, derelinquetur terra quam tu detestaris a facie duorum regum suorum.
17The LORD will bring on you and on your people and on the house of your father a time unlike any since the day Ephraim separated from Judah—He will bring the king of Assyria.”
17Adducet Dominus super te, et super populum tuum, et super domum patris tui, dies qui non venerunt a diebus separationis Ephraim a Juda, cum rege Assyriorum.
18On that day the LORD will whistle to the flies at the farthest streams of the Nile and to the bees in the land of Assyria.
18Et erit in die illa: sibilabit Dominus muscæ quæ est in extremo fluminum Ægypti, et api quæ est in terra Assur;
19And they will all come and settle in the steep ravines and clefts of the rocks, in all the thornbushes and watering holes.
19et venient, et requiescent omnes in torrentibus vallium, et in cavernis petrarum, et in omnibus frutetis, et in universis foraminibus.
20On that day the Lord will use a razor hired from beyond the Euphrates —the king of Assyria—to shave your head and the hair of your legs, and to remove your beard as well.
20In die illa radet Dominus in novacula conducta in his qui trans flumen sunt, in rege Assyriorum, caput et pilos pedum, et barbam universam.
21On that day a man will raise a young cow and two sheep,
21Et erit in die illa: nutriet homo vaccam boum, et duas oves,
22and from the abundance of milk they give, he will eat curds; for all who remain in the land will eat curds and honey.
22et præ ubertate lactis comedet butyrum; butyrum enim et mel manducabit omnis qui relictus fuerit in medio terræ.
23And on that day, in every place that had a thousand vines worth a thousand shekels of silver, only briers and thorns will be found.
23Et erit in die illa: omnis locus ubi fuerint mille vites, mille argenteis, in spinas et in vepres erunt.
24Men will go there with bow and arrow, for the land will be covered with briers and thorns.
24Cum sagittis et arcu ingredientur illuc: vepres enim et spinæ erunt in universa terra.
25For fear of the briers and thorns, you will no longer traverse the hills once tilled by the hoe; they will become places for oxen to graze and sheep to trample.
25Et omnes montes qui in sarculo sarrientur, non veniet illuc terror spinarum et veprium: et erit in pascua bovis, et in conculcationem pecoris.]
