| 1 | Thus saith the Lord: Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my justice to be revealed. | Haec dicit Dominus: Custodite iudicium, et facite iustitiam, quia iuxta est salus mea ut veniat, et iustitia mea ut reveletur. | Τάδε λέγει Κύριος, φυλάσσεσθε κρίσιν, καὶ ποιήσατε δικαιοσύνην· ἤγγικε γὰρ τὸ σωτήριόν μου παραγίνεσθαι, καὶ τὸ ἔλεός μου ἀποκαλυφθῆναι. |
| 2 | Blessed is the man that doth this, and the son of man that shall lay hold on this: that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, that keepeth his hands from doing any evil. | Beatus vir qui facit hoc, et filius hominis qui apprehendet istud, custodiens sabbatum ne polluat illud, custodiens manus suas ne faciat omne malum. | Μακάριος ἀνὴρ ὁ ποιῶν ταῦτα, καὶ ἄνθρωπος ὁ ἀντεχόμενος αὐτῶν, καὶ φυλάσσων τὰ σάββατα μὴ βεβηλοῦν, καὶ διατηρῶν τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ μὴ ποιεῖν ἄδικα. |
| 3 | And let not the son of the stranger, that adhereth to the Lord, speak, saying: The Lord will divide and separate me from his people. And let not the eunuch say: Behold I am a dry tree. | Et non dicat filius advenae qui adhaeret Domino, dicens: Separatione dividet me Dominus a populo suo; et non dicat eunuchus: Ecce ego lignum aridum. | Μὴ λεγέτω ὁ ἀλλογενὴς ὁ προσκείμενος πρὸς Κύριον, ἀφοριεῖ με ἄρα Κύριος ἀπὸ τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ· καὶ μὴ λεγέτω ὁ εὐνοῦχος, ὅτι ξύλον ἐγώ εἰμι ξηρόν. |
| 4 | For thus saith the Lord to the eunuchs, They that shall keep my sabbaths, and shall choose the things that please me, and shall hold fast my covenant: | Quia haec dicit Dominus eunuchis: Qui custodierint sabbata mea, et elegerint quae ego volui, et tenuerint foedus meum, | Τάδε λέγει Κύριος τοῖς εὐνούχοις, ὅσοι ἄν φυλάξωνται τὰ σάββατά μου, καὶ ἐκλέξωνται ἃ ἐγὼ θέλω, καὶ ἀντέχωνται τῆς διαθήκης μου, |
| 5 | I will give to them in my house, and within my walls, a place, and a name better than sons and daughters: I will give them an everlasting name which shall never perish. | dabo eis in domo mea et in muris meis locum, et nomen melius a filiis et filiabus: nomen sempiternum dabo eis, quod non peribit. | δώσω αὐτοῖς ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ μου καὶ ἐν τῷ τείχει μου τόπον ὀνομαστὸν, κρείττω υἱῶν καὶ θυγατέρων· ὄνομα αἰώνιον δώσω αὐτοῖς, καὶ οὐκ ἐκλείψει· |
| 6 | And the children of the stranger that adhere to the Lord, to worship him, and to love his name, to be his servants: every one that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and that holdeth fast my covenant: | Et filios advenae, qui adhaerent Domino, ut colant eum, et diligant nomen eius, ut sint ei in servos; omnem custodientem sabbatum ne polluat illud, et tenentem foedus meum; | καὶ τοῖς ἀλλογενέσι τοῖς προσκειμένοις Κυρίῳ δουλεύειν αὐτῷ, καὶ ἀγαπᾷν τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου, τοῦ εἶναι αὐτῷ εἰς δούλους καὶ δούλας· καὶ πάντας τοὺς φυλασσομένους τὰ σάββατά μου μὴ βεβηλοῦν, καὶ ἀντεχομένους τῆς διαθήκης μου, |
| 7 | I will bring them into my holy mount, and will make them joyful in my house of prayer: their holocausts, and their victims shall please me upon my altar: for my house shall be called the house of prayer, for all nations. | adducam eos in montem sanctum meum, et laetificabo eos in domo orationis meae; holocausta eorum et victimae eorum placebunt mihi super altari meo, quia domus mea domus orationis vocabitur cunctis populis. | εἰσάξω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸ ὄρος τὸ ἅγιόν μου, καὶ εὐφρανῶ αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τῆς προσευχῆς μου· τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα αὐτῶν, καὶ αἱ θυσίαι αὐτῶν ἔσονται δεκταὶ ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριόν μου· ὁ γάρ οἶκός μου, οἶκος προσευχῆς κληθήσεται πᾶσι τοῖς ἔθνεσιν, |
| 8 | The Lord God, who gathereth the scattered of Israel, saith: I will still gather unto him his congregation. | Ait Dominus Deus, qui congregat dispersos Israël: Adhuc congregabo ad eum congregatos eius. | εἶπε Κύριος ὁ συνάγων τοὺς διεσπαρμένους Ἰσραὴλ, ὅτι συνάξω ἐπʼ αὐτὸν συναγωγήν. |
| 9 | All ye beasts of the field come to devour, all ye beasts of the forest. | Omnes bestiae agri, venite ad devorandum, universae bestiae saltus. | Πάντα τὰ θηρία τὰ ἄγρια, δεῦτε, φάγετε, πάντα τὰ θηρία τοῦ δρυμοῦ. |
| 10 | His watchmen are all blind, they are all ignorant: dumb dogs not able to bark, seeing vain things, sleeping and loving dreams. | Speculatores eius caeci omnes; nescierunt universi: canes muti non valentes latrare, videntes vana, dormientes, et amantes somnia. | Ἴδετε, ὅτι ἐκτετύφλωνται πάντες, οὐκ ἔγνωσαν, κύνες ἐνεοί οὐ δυνήσονται ὑλακτεῖν, ἐνυπνιαζόμενοι κοίτην, φιλοῦντες νυστάξαι. |
| 11 | And meet impudent dogs, they never had enough: the shepherds themselves knew no understanding: all have turned aside into their own way, every one after his own gain, from the first even to the last. | Et canes imprudentissimi nescierunt saturitatem; ipsi pastores ignoraverunt intelligentiam: omnes in viam suam declinaverunt; unusquisque ad avaritiam suam, a summo usque ad novissimum. | Καὶ οἱ κύνες ἀναιδεῖς τῇ ψυχῇ, οὐκ εἰδότες πλησμονήν· καί εἰσι πονηροὶ οὐκ εἰδότες σύνεσιν, πάντες ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτων ἐξηκολούθησαν, ἕκαστος κατὰ τὸ ἑαυτοῦ. |
| 12 | Come, let us take wine, and be filled with drunkenness: and it shall be as today, so also tomorrow, and much more. | Venite, sumamus vinum, et impleamur ebrietate; et erit sicut hodie, sic et cras, et multo amplius. | — |
