| Isaiah 9 Text (WEB)
|
- But there shall be no more gloom for her who was in anguish. In the former time, he brought into contempt the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali; but in the latter time he has made it glorious, by the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.
- The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. Those who lived in the land of the shadow of death, on them the light has shined.
- You have multiplied the nation. You have increased their joy. They rejoice before you according to the joy in harvest, as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.
- For the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, you have broken as in the day of Midian.
- For all the armor of the armed man in the noisy battle, and the garments rolled in blood, will be for burning, fuel for the fire.
- For to us a child is born. To us a son is given; and the government will be on his shoulders. His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
- Of the increase of his government and of peace there shall be no end, on the throne of David, and on his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from that time on, even forever. The zeal of Yahweh of Armies will perform this.
- The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it falls on Israel.
- All the people will know, including Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria, who say in pride and in arrogance of heart,
- "The bricks have fallen, but we will build with cut stone. The sycamore fig trees have been cut down, but we will put cedars in their place."
- Therefore Yahweh will set up on high against him the adversaries of Rezin, and will stir up his enemies,
- The Syrians in front, and the Philistines behind; and they will devour Israel with open mouth. For all this, his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
- Yet the people have not turned to him who struck them, neither have they sought Yahweh of Armies.
- Therefore Yahweh will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm branch and reed, in one day.
- The elder and the honorable man is the head, and the prophet who teaches lies is the tail.
- For those who lead this people lead them astray; and those who are led by them are destroyed.
- Therefore the Lord will not rejoice over their young men, neither will he have compassion on their fatherless and widows; for everyone is profane and an evildoer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
- For wickedness burns like a fire. It devours the briers and thorns; yes, it kindles in the thickets of the forest, and they roll upward in a column of smoke.
- Through the wrath of Yahweh of Armies, the land is burnt up; and the people are the fuel for the fire. No one spares his brother.
- One will devour on the right hand, and be hungry; and he will eat on the left hand, and they will not be satisfied. Everyone will eat the flesh of his own arm:
- Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh; and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

| Isaiah 9 Text (Hebrew)

- כי לא מועף לאשר מוצק לה כעת הראשון הקל ארצה זבלון וארצה נפתלי והאחרון הכביד דרך הים עבר הירדן גליל הגוים׃
- העם ההלכים בחשך ראו אור גדול ישבי בארץ צלמות אור נגה עליהם׃
- הרבית הגוי הגדלת השמחה שמחו לפניך כשמחת בקציר כאשר יגילו בחלקם שלל׃
- כי את־על סבלו ואת מטה שכמו שבט הנגש בו החתת כיום מדין׃
- כי כל־סאון סאן ברעש ושמלה מגוללה בדמים והיתה לשרפה מאכלת אש׃
- כי־ילד ילד־לנו בן נתן־לנו ותהי המשרה על־שכמו ויקרא שמו פלא יועץ אל גבור אביעד שר־שלום׃
- המשרה ולשלום אין־קץ על־כסא דוד ועל־ממלכתו להכין אתה ולסעדה במשפט ובצדקה מעתה ועד־עולם קנאת יהוה צבאות תעשה־זאת׃ ס
- דבר שלח אדני ביעקב ונפל בישראל׃
- וידעו העם כלו אפרים ויושב שמרון בגאוה ובגדל לבב לאמר׃
- לבנים נפלו וגזית נבנה שקמים גדעו וארזים נחליף׃
- וישגב יהוה את־צרי רצין עליו ואת־איביו יסכסך׃
- ארם מקדם ופלשתים מאחור ויאכלו את־ישראל בכל־פה בכל־זאת לא־שב אפו ועוד ידו נטויה׃
- והעם לא־שב עד־המכהו ואת־יהוה צבאות לא דרשו׃ ס
- ויכרת יהוה מישראל ראש וזנב כפה ואגמון יום אחד׃
- זקן ונשוא־פנים הוא הראש ונביא מורה־שקר הוא הזנב׃
- ויהיו מאשרי העם־הזה מתעים ומאשריו מבלעים׃
- על־כן על־בחוריו לא־ישמח אדני ואת־יתמיו ואת־אלמנתיו לא ירחם כי כלו חנף ומרע וכל־פה דבר נבלה בכל־זאת לא־שב אפו ועוד ידו נטויה׃
- כי־בערה כאש רשעה שמיר ושית תאכל ותצת בסבכי היער ויתאבכו גאות עשן׃
- בעברת יהוה צבאות נעתם ארץ ויהי העם כמאכלת אש איש אל־אחיו לא יחמלו׃
- ויגזר על־ימין ורעב ויאכל על־שמאול ולא שבעו איש בשר־זרעו יאכלו׃
- מנשה את־אפרים ואפרים את־מנשה יחדו המה על־יהודה בכל־זאת לא־שב אפו ועוד ידו נטויה׃ ס

| Isaiah 9 Text (Latin)
|
- Primo tempore alleviata est terra Zabulon et terra Nephthali : et novissimo aggravata est via maris trans Jordanem Galilææ gentium.
- Populus qui ambulabat in tenebris, vidit lucem magnam ; habitantibus in regione umbræ mortis, lux orta est eis.
- Multiplicasti gentem, et non magnificasti lætitiam. Lætabuntur coram te, sicut qui lætantur in messe ; sicut exsultant victores capta præda, quando dividunt spolia.
- Jugum enim oneris ejus, et virgam humeri ejus, et sceptrum exactoris ejus superasti, sicut in die Madian.
- Quia omnis violentia prædatio cum tumultu, et vestimentum mistum sanguine, erit in combustionem, et cibus ignis.
- Parvulus enim natus est nobis, et filius datus est nobis, et factus est principatus super humerum ejus : et vocabitur nomen ejus, Admirabilis, Consiliarius, Deus, Fortis, Pater futuri sæculi, Princeps pacis.
- Multiplicabitur ejus imperium, et pacis non erit finis ; super solium David, et super regnum ejus sedebit, ut confirmet illud et corroboret in judicio et justitia, amodo usque in sempiternum : zelus Domini exercituum faciet hoc.
- Verbum misit Dominus in Jacob, et cecidit in Israël.
- Et sciet omnis populus Ephraim, et habitantes Samariam, in superbia et magnitudine cordis dicentes :
- Lateres ceciderunt, sed quadris lapidibus ædificabimus ; sycomoros succiderunt, sed cedros immutabimus.
- Et elevabit Dominus hostes Rasin super eum, et inimicos ejus in tumultum vertet.
- Syriam ab oriente, et Philisthiim ab occidente ; et devorabunt Israël toto ore. In omnibus his non est aversus furor ejus, sed adhuc manus ejus extenta.
- Et populus non est reversus ad percutientem se, et Dominum exercituum non inquisierunt.
- Et disperdet Dominus ab Israël caput et caudam, incurvantem et refrenantem, die una.
- Longævus et honorabilis, ipse est caput ; et propheta docens mendacium, ipse est cauda.
- Et erunt qui beatificant populum istum, seducentes ; et qui beatificantur, præcipitati.
- Propter hoc super adolescentulis ejus non lætabitur Dominus, et pupillorum ejus et viduarum non miserebitur : quia omnis hypocrita est et nequam, et universum os locutum est stultitiam ; in omnibus his non est aversus furor ejus, sed adhuc manus ejus extenta.
- Succensa est enim quasi ignis impietas : veprem et spinam vorabit, et succendetur in densitate saltus, et convolvetur superbia fumi.
- In ira Domini exercituum conturbata est terra, et erit populus quasi esca ignis ; vir fratri suo non parcet.
- Et declinabit ad dexteram, et esuriet ; et comedet ad sinistram, et non saturabitur ; unusquisque carnem brachii sui vorabit : Manasses Ephraim, et Ephraim Manassen ; simul ipsi contra Judam.
- In omnibus his non est aversus furor ejus, sed adhuc manus ejus extenta.

| Isaiah 9 Text (KJV)
|
- Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations.
- The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.
- Thou hast multiplied the nation, and not increased the joy: they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.
- For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian.
- For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire.
- For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
- Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
- The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.
- And all the people shall know, even Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart,
- The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars.
- Therefore the LORD shall set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and join his enemies together;
- The Syrians before, and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
- For the people turneth not unto him that smiteth them, neither do they seek the LORD of hosts.
- Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day.
- The ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.
- For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed.
- Therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men, neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one is an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
- For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke.
- Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother.
- And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm:
- Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh: and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
