Comparison
Isaiah 15
Douay-Rheims and Vulgata Clementina, verse by verse.
| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, it is silent: because the wall of Moab is destroyed in the night, it is silent. | Onus Moab. Quia nocte vastata est Ar Moab, conticuit; quia nocte vastatus est murus Moab, conticuit. |
| 2 | The house is gone up, and Dibon to the high places to mourn over Nabo, and over Medaba, Moab hath howled: ton all their heads shall be baldness, and every beard shall be shaven. | Ascendit domus, et Dibon ad excelsa, in planctum super Nabo; et super Medaba, Moab ululavit; in cunctis capitibus eius calvitium, et omnis barba radetur. |
| 3 | In their streets they are girded with sackcloth: on the tops of their houses, and in their streets all shall howl and come down weeping. | In triviis eius accincti sunt sacco; super tecta eius et in plateis eius omnis ululatus descendit in fletum. |
| 4 | Hesebon shall cry, and Eleale, their voice is heard even to Jasa. For this shall the well appointed men of Moab howl, his soul shall howl to itself. | Clamabit Hesebon et Eleale, usque Iasa audita est vox eorum; super hoc expediti Moab ululabunt, anima eius ululabit sibi. |
| 5 | My heart shall cry to Moab, the bars thereof shall flee unto Segor a heifer of three years old: for by the ascent of Luith they shall go up weeping: and in the way of Oronaim they shall lift up a cry of destruction. | Cor meum ad Moab clamabit; vectes eius usque ad Segor, vitulam conternantem; per ascensum enim Luith flens ascendet, et in via Oronaim clamorem contritionis levabunt. |
| 6 | For the waters of Nemrim shall be desolate, for the grass is withered away, the spring is faded, all the greenness is perished. | Aquae enim Nemrim desertae erunt, quia aruit herba, defecit germen, viror omnis interiit. |
| 7 | According to the greatness of their work, is their visitation also: they shall lead them to the torrent of the willows. | Secundum magnitudinem operis, et visitatio eorum: ad torrentem Salicum ducent eos. |
| 8 | For the cry is gone round about the border of Moab: the howling thereof unto Gallim, and unto the well of Elim the cry thereof. | Quoniam circuivit clamor terminum Moab; usque ad Gallim ululatus eius, et usque ad puteum Elim clamor eius. |
| 9 | For the waters of Dibon are filled with blood: for I will bring more upon Dibon: the lion upon them that shall flee of Moab, and upon the remnant of the land. | Quia aquae Dibon repletae sunt sanguine; ponam enim super Dibon additamenta; his qui fugerint de Moab leonem, et reliquiis terrae. |
