Liber Isaiae

Isaiae, chapter 27, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 27 Vulgate

   1 In die illa visitabit Dominus in gladio suo duro et forti et grandi super Leviathan serpentem fugacem et super Leviathan serpentem tortuosum et occidet draconem, qui in mari est.
   2 In die illa vinea erit iucunda; cantate ei.
   3 Ego Dominus, qui servo eam; per singula momenta irrigabo eam. Ne forte visitetur contra eam, nocte et die servo eam.
   4 Indignatio non est mihi. Quis dabit mihi spinam et veprem? In proelio gradiar super eam, succendam eam pariter,
   5 nisi forte protectionem meam apprehendat, faciat pacem mecum, pacem faciat mecum.
   6 Diebus futuris radices mittet Iacob, florebit et germinabit Israel, et implebunt faciem orbis fructibus.
   7 Numquid iuxta plagam percutientis eum percussit eum? Aut, sicut occiduntur occisi eius, occisus est?
   8 In mensura punit eum deiciens eum, impellit in spiritu suo duro, tempore quo spirat eurus.
   9 Idcirco super hoc dimittetur iniquitas Iacob, et hic erit omnis fructus ablationis peccati eius: ut scilicet ponat omnes lapides altaris sicut lapides calcis comminutos, ne exstent luci et thymiateria.
   10 Civitas enim munita desolata est, habitaculum derelictum et dimissum quasi desertum; ibi pascetur vitulus et ibi accubabit et consumet arbusta eius.
   11 In siccitate frondes illius conterentur; mulieres venient et comburent eas. Ipse enim non est populus sapiens, propterea non miserebitur eius, qui fecit eum, et, qui formavit eum, non parcet ei.
   12 Et erit: in die illa percutiet spicas Dominus a Flumine usque ad torrentem Aegypti; et vos congregabimini unus et unus, filii Israel.
   13 Et erit: in die illa clangetur in tuba magna; et venient, qui perditi fuerant de terra Assyriorum, et qui eiecti erant in terra Aegypti, et adorabunt Dominum in monte sancto in Ierusalem.

King James Version

   1 In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.
   2 In that day sing ye unto her, A vineyard of red wine.
   3 I the LORD do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day.
   4 Fury is not in me: who would set the briers and thorns against me in battle? I would go through them, I would burn them together.
   5 Or let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me.
   6 He shall cause them that come of Jacob to take root: Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.
   7 ¶ Hath he smitten him, as he smote those that smote him? or is he slain according to the slaughter of them that are slain by him?
   8 In measure, when it shooteth forth, thou wilt debate with it: he stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind.
   9 By this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this is all the fruit to take away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, the groves and images shall not stand up.
   10 Yet the defenced city shall be desolate, and the habitation forsaken, and left like a wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof.
   11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off: the women come, and set them on fire: for it is a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he that formed them will shew them no favour.
   12 ¶ And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
   13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem.
