World English Bible
1[Spiritus Domini super me, eo quod unxerit Dominus me; ad annuntiandum mansuetis misit me, ut mederer contritis corde, et prædicarem captivis indulgentiam, et clausis apertionem;
1The Lord GOD’s Spirit is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to those who are bound,
2ut prædicarem annum placabilem Domino, et diem ultionis Deo nostro; ut consolarer omnes lugentes,
2to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn,
3ut ponerem lugentibus Sion, et darem eis coronam pro cinere, oleum gaudii pro luctu, pallium laudis pro spiritu mœroris; et vocabuntur in ea fortes justitiæ, plantatio Domini ad glorificandum.
3to provide for those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he may be glorified.
4Et ædificabunt deserta a sæculo, et ruinas antiquas erigent, et instaurabunt civitates desertas, dissipatas in generationem et generationem.
4They will rebuild the old ruins. They will raise up the former devastated places. They will repair the ruined cities that have been devastated for many generations.
5Et stabunt alieni, et pascent pecora vestra, et filii peregrinorum agricolæ et vinitores vestri erunt.
5Strangers will stand and feed your flocks. Foreigners will work your fields and your vineyards.
6Vos autem sacerdotes Domini vocabimini: Ministri Dei nostri, dicetur vobis, fortitudinem gentium comedetis, et in gloria earum superbietis.
6But you will be called the LORD’s priests. Men will call you the servants of our God. You will eat the wealth of the nations. You will boast in their glory.
7Pro confusione vestra duplici et rubore, laudabunt partem suam; propter hoc in terra sua duplicia possidebunt, lætitia sempiterna erit eis.
7Instead of your shame you will have double. Instead of dishonor, they will rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they will possess double. Everlasting joy will be to them.
8Quia ego Dominus diligens judicium, et odio habens rapinam in holocausto; et dabo opus eorum in veritate, et fœdus perpetuum feriam eis.
8“For I, the LORD, love justice. I hate robbery and iniquity. I will give them their reward in truth and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9Et scient in gentibus semen eorum, et germen eorum in medio populorum; omnes qui viderint eos cognoscent illos, quia isti sunt semen cui benedixit Dominus.
9Their offspring will be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples. All who see them will acknowledge them, that they are the offspring which the LORD has blessed.”
10Gaudens gaudebo in Domino, et exsultabit anima mea in Deo meo, quia induit me vestimentis salutis, et indumento justitiæ circumdedit me, quasi sponsum decoratum corona, et quasi sponsam ornatam monilibus suis.
10I will greatly rejoice in the LORD! My soul will be joyful in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation. He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11Sicut enim terra profert germen suum, et sicut hortus semen suum germinat, sic Dominus Deus germinabit justitiam et laudem coram universis gentibus.]
11For as the earth produces its bud, and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring up, so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations.
