| Isaiah 30 Text (WEB)
|
- "Woe to the rebellious children," says Yahweh, "who take counsel, but not from me; and who make an alliance, but not with my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin,
- who set out to go down into Egypt, and have not asked my advice; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to take refuge in the shadow of Egypt!
- Therefore the strength of Pharaoh will be your shame, and the refuge in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
- For their princes are at Zoan, and their ambassadors have come to Hanes.
- They shall all be ashamed because of a people that can't profit them, that are not a help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach."
- The burden of the animals of the South. Through the land of trouble and anguish, of the lioness and the lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they carry their riches on the shoulders of young donkeys, and their treasures on the humps of camels, to an unprofitable people.
- For Egypt helps in vain, and to no purpose; therefore have I called her Rahab who sits still.
- Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and inscribe it in a book, that it may be for the time to come forever and ever.
- For it is a rebellious people, lying children, children who will not hear the law of Yahweh;
- who tell the seers, "Don't see!" and to the prophets, "Don't prophesy to us right things. Tell us pleasant things. Prophesy deceits.
- Get out of the way. Turn aside from the path. Cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us."
- Therefore thus says the Holy One of Israel, "Because you despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and rely on it;
- therefore this iniquity shall be to you like a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly in an instant.
- He will break it as a potter's vessel is broken, breaking it in pieces without sparing, so that there won't be found among the broken piece a piece good enough to take fire from the hearth, or to dip up water out of the cistern."
- For thus said the Lord Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel, "You will be saved in returning and rest. Your strength will be in quietness and in confidence." You refused,
- but you said, "No, for we will flee on horses;" therefore you will flee; and, "We will ride on the swift;" therefore those who pursue you will be swift.
- One thousand will flee at the threat of one. At the threat of five, you will flee until you are left like a beacon on the top of a mountain, and like a banner on a hill.
- Therefore Yahweh will wait, that he may be gracious to you; and therefore he will be exalted, that he may have mercy on you, for Yahweh is a God of justice. Blessed are all those who wait for him.
- For the people will dwell in Zion at Jerusalem. You will weep no more. He will surely be gracious to you at the voice of your cry. When he hears you, he will answer you.
- Though the Lord may give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your teachers won't be hidden anymore, but your eyes will see your teachers;
- and when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "This is the way. Walk in it."
- You shall defile the overlaying of your engraved images of silver, and the plating of your molten images of gold. You shall cast them away as an unclean thing. You shall tell it, "Go away!"
- He will give the rain for your seed, with which you will sow the ground; and bread of the increase of the ground will be rich and plentiful. In that day, your livestock will feed in large pastures.
- The oxen likewise and the young donkeys that till the ground will eat savory provender, which has been winnowed with the shovel and with the fork.
- There shall be brooks and streams of water on every lofty mountain and on every high hill in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
- Moreover the light of the moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven days, in the day that Yahweh binds up the fracture of his people, and heals the wound they were struck with.
- Behold, the name of Yahweh comes from far away, burning with his anger, and in thick rising smoke. His lips are full of indignation, and his tongue is as a devouring fire.
- His breath is as an overflowing stream that reaches even to the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of destruction; and a bridle that leads to ruin will be in the jaws of the peoples.
- You will have a song, as in the night when a holy feast is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goes with a flute to come to Yahweh's mountain, to Israel's Rock.
- Yahweh will cause his glorious voice to be heard, and will show the descent of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and the flame of a devouring fire, with a blast, storm, and hailstones.
- For through the voice of Yahweh the Assyrian will be dismayed. He will strike him with his rod.
- Every stroke of the rod of punishment, which Yahweh will lay on him, will be with the sound of tambourines and harps. He will fight with them in battles, brandishing weapons.
- For his burning place has long been ready. Yes, for the king it is prepared. He has made its pyre deep and large with fire and much wood. Yahweh's breath, like a stream of sulfur, kindles it.

- הוי בנים סוררים נאם־יהוה לעשות עצה ולא מני ולנסך מסכה ולא רוחי למען ספות חטאת על־חטאת׃
- ההלכים לרדת מצרים ופי לא שאלו לעוז במעוז פרעה ולחסות בצל מצרים׃
- והיה לכם מעוז פרעה לבשת והחסות בצל־מצרים לכלמה׃
- כי־היו בצען שריו ומלאכיו חנס יגיעו׃
- כל הבאיש על־עם לא־יועילו למו לא לעזר ולא להועיל כי לבשת וגם־לחרפה׃ ס
- משא בהמות נגב בארץ צרה וצוקה לביא וליש מהם אפעה ושרף מעוףף ישאו על־כתף עירים חילהם ועל־דבשת גמלים אוצרתם על־עם לא יועילו׃
- ומצרים הבל וריק יעזרו לכן קראתי לזאת רהב הם שבת׃
- עתה בוא כתבה על־לוח אתם ועל־ספר חקה ותהי ליום אחרון לעד עד־עולם׃
- כי עם מרי הוא בנים כחשים בנים לא־אבו שמוע תורת יהוה׃
- אשר אמרו לראים לא תראו ולחזים לא תחזו־לנו נכחות דברו־לנו חלקות חזו מהתלות׃
- סורו מני־דרך הטו מני־ארח השביתו מפנינו את־קדוש ישראל׃ ס
- לכן כה אמר קדוש ישראל יען מאסכם בדבר הזה ותבטחו בעשק ונלוז ותשענו עליו׃
- לכן יהיה לכם העון הזה כפרץ נפל נבעה בחומה נשגבה אשר־פתאם לפתע יבוא שברה׃
- ושברה כשבר נבל יוצרים כתות לא יחמל ולא־ימצא במכתתו חרש לחתות אש מיקוד ולחשף מים מגבא׃ ף
- כי כה־אמר אדני יהוה קדוש ישראל בשובה ונחת תושעון בהשקט ובבטחה תהיה גבורתכם ולא אביתם׃
- ותאמרו לא־כי על־סוס ננוס על־כן תנוסון ועל־קל נרכב על־כן יקלו רדפיכם׃
- אלף אחד מפני גערת אחד מפני גערת חמשה תנסו עד אם־נותרתם כתרן על־ראש ההר וכנס על־הגבעה׃
- ולכן יחכה יהוה לחננכם ולכן ירום לרחםכם כי־אלהי משפט יהוה אשרי כל־חוכי לו׃ ס
- כי־עם בציון ישב בירושלם בכו לא־תבכה חנון יחנך לקול זעקך כשמעתו ענך׃
- ונתן לכם אדני לחם צר ומים לחץ ולא־יכנף עוד מוריך והיו עיניך ראות את־מוריך׃
- ואזניך תשמענה דבר מאחריך לאמר זה הדרך לכו בו כי תאמינו וכי תשמאילו׃
- וטמאתם את־צפוי פסילי כספך ואת־אפדת מסכת זהבך תזרם כמו דוה צא תאמר לו׃
- ונתן מטר זרעך אשר־תזרע את־האדמה ולחם תבואת האדמה והיה דשן ושמן ירעה מקניך ביום ההוא כר נרחב׃
- והאלפים והעירים עבדי האדמה בליל חמיץ יאכלו אשר־זרה ברחת ובמזרה׃
- והיה על־כל־הר גבה ועל כל־גבעה נשאה פלגים יבלי־מים ביום הרג רב בנפל מגדלים׃
- והיה אור־הלבנה כאור החמה ואור החמה יהיה שבעתים כאור שבעת הימים ביום חבש יהוה את־שבר עמו ומחץ מכתו ירפא׃ ס
- הנה שם־יהוה בא ממרחק בער אפו וכבד משאה שפתיו מלאו זעם ולשונו כאש אכלת׃
- ורוחו כנחל שוטף עד־צואר יחצה להנפה גוים בנפת שוא ורסן מתעה על לחיי עמים׃
- השיר יהיה לכם כליל התקדש־חג ושמחת לבב כהולך בחליל לבוא בהר־יהוה אל־צור ישראל׃
- והשמיע יהוה את־הוד קולו ונחת זרועו יראה בזעף אף ולהב אש אוכלה נפץ וזרם ואבן ברד׃
- כי־מקול יהוה יחת אשור בשבט יכה׃
- והיה כל מעבר מטה מוסדה אשר יניח יהוה עליו בתפים ובכנרות ובמלחמות תנופה נלחם־ ׃
- כי־ערוך מאתמול תפתה גם־ למלך הוכן העמיק הרחב מדרתה אש ועצים הרבה נשמת יהוה כנחל גפרית בערה בה׃ ס

| Isaiah 30 Text (Latin)
|
- Væ filii desertores, dicit Dominus, ut faceretis consilium, et non ex me, et ordiremini telam, et non per spiritum meum, ut adderetis peccatum super peccatum ;
- qui ambulatis ut descendatis in Ægyptum, et os meum non interrogastis, sperantes auxilium in fortitudine Pharaonis, et habentes fiduciam in umbra Ægypti !
- Et erit vobis fortitudo Pharaonis in confusionem, et fiducia umbræ Ægypti in ignominiam.
- Erant enim in Tani principes tui, et nuntii tui usque ad Hanes pervenerunt.
- Omnes confusi sunt super populo qui eis prodesse non potuit : non fuerunt in auxilium et in aliquam utilitatem, sed in confusionem et in opprobrium.
- Onus jumentorum austri. In terra tribulationis et angustiæ leæna, et leo ex eis, vipera et regulus volans ; portantes super humeros jumentorum divitias suas, et super gibbum camelorum thesauros suos, ad populum qui eis prodesse non poterit.
- Ægyptus enim frustra et vane auxiliabitur. Ideo clamavi super hoc : Superbia tantum est, quiesce.
- Nunc ergo ingressus, scribe ei super buxum, et in libro diligenter exara illud, et erit in die novissimo in testimonium usque in æternum.
- Populus enim ad iracundiam provocans est : et filii mendaces, filii nolentes audire legem Dei ;
- qui dicunt videntibus : Nolite videre, et aspicientibus : Nolite aspicere nobis ea quæ recta sunt ; loquimini nobis placentia : videte nobis errores.
- Auferte a me viam ; declinate a me semitam ; cesset a facie nostra Sanctus Israël.
- Propterea hæc dicit Sanctus Israël : Pro eo quod reprobastis verbum hoc, et sperastis in calumnia et in tumultu, et innixi estis super eo ;
- propterea erit vobis iniquitas hæc sicut interruptio cadens, et requisita in muro excelso, quoniam subito, dum non speratur, veniet contritio ejus.
- Et comminuetur sicut conteritur lagena figuli contritione pervalida, et non invenietur de fragmentis ejus testa in qua portetur igniculus de incendio, aut hauriatur parum aquæ de fovea.
- Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus, Sanctus Israël : Si revertamini et quiescatis, salvi eritis ; in silentio et in spe erit fortitudo vestra. Et noluistis,
- et dixistis : Nequaquam, sed ad equos fugiemus : ideo fugietis ; et : Super veloces ascendemus : ideo velociores erunt qui persequentur vos.
- Mille homines a facie terroris unius ; et a facie terroris quinque fugietis, donec relinquamini quasi malus navis in vertice montis, et quasi signum super collem.
- Propterea exspectat Dominus ut misereatur vestri ; et ideo exaltabitur parcens vobis, quia Deus judicii Dominus : beati omnes qui exspectant eum !
- Populus enim Sion habitabit in Jerusalem : plorans nequaquam plorabis : miserans miserebitur tui, ad vocem clamoris tui : statim ut audierit, respondebit tibi.
- Et dabit vobis Dominus panem arctum, et aquam brevem ; et non faciet avolare a te ultra doctorem tuum ; et erunt oculi tui videntes præceptorem tuum.
- Et aures tuæ audient verbum post tergum monentis : Hæc est via ; ambulate in ea, et non declinetis neque ad dexteram, neque ad sinistram.
- Et contaminabis laminas sculptilium argenti tui, et vestimentum conflatilis auri tui, et disperges ea sicut immunditiam menstruatæ. Egredere, dices ei.
- Et dabitur pluvia semini tuo, ubicumque seminaveris in terra, et panis frugum terræ erit uberrimus et pinguis ; pascetur in possessione tua in die illo agnus spatiose,
- et tauri tui, et pulli asinorum, qui operantur terram, commistum migma comedent sicut in area ventilatum est.
- Et erunt super omnem montem excelsum, et super omnem collem elevatum, rivi currentium aquarum, in die interfectionis multorum, cum ceciderint turres :
- et erit lux lunæ sicut lux solis, et lux solis erit septempliciter sicut lux septem dierum, in die qua alligaverit Dominus vulnus populi sui, et percussuram plagæ ejus sanaverit.
- Ecce nomen Domini venit de longinquo, ardens furor ejus, et gravis ad portandum ; labia ejus repleta sunt indignatione, et lingua ejus quasi ignis devorans.
- Spiritus ejus velut torrens inundans usque ad medium colli, ad perdendas gentes in nihilum, et frenum erroris quod erat in maxillis populorum.
- Canticum erit vobis sicut nox sanctificatæ solemnitatis, et lætitia cordis sicut qui pergit cum tibia, ut intret in montem Domini ad Fortem Israël.
- Et auditam faciet Dominus gloriam vocis suæ, et terrorem brachii sui ostendet in comminatione furoris, et flamma ignis devorantis : allidet in turbine, et in lapide grandinis.
- A voce enim Domini pavebit Assur virga percussus.
- Et erit transitus virgæ fundatus, quam requiescere faciet Dominus super eum in tympanis et citharis ; et in bellis præcipuis expugnabit eos.
- Præparata est enim ab heri Topheth, a rege præparata, profunda, et dilatata. Nutrimenta ejus, ignis et ligna multa ; flatus Domini sicut torrens sulphuris succendens eam.

| Isaiah 30 Text (KJV)
|
- Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
- That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
- Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
- For his princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes.
- They were all ashamed of a people that could not profit them, nor be an help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
- The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them.
- For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still.
- Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever:
- That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD:
- Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
- Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
- Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:
- Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.
- And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters' vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit.
- For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.
- But ye said, No; for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee: and, We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
- One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall ye flee: till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as an ensign on an hill.
- And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.
- For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: thou shalt weep no more: he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer thee.
- And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any more, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers:
- And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
- Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth; thou shalt say unto it, Get thee hence.
- Then shall he give the rain of thy seed, that thou shalt sow the ground withal; and bread of the increase of the earth, and it shall be fat and plenteous: in that day shall thy cattle feed in large pastures.
- The oxen likewise and the young asses that ear the ground shall eat clean provender, which hath been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan.
- And there shall be upon every high mountain, and upon every high hill, rivers and streams of waters in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
- Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound.
- Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:
- And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to err.
- Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.
- And the LORD shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall shew the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones.
- For through the voice of the LORD shall the Assyrian be beaten down, which smote with a rod.
- And in every place where the grounded staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay upon him, it shall be with tabrets and harps: and in battles of shaking will he fight with it.
- For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.
