Isaiah 57

KJV

1  The righteous6662 perisheth,6 and no369 man376 layeth7760 it to5921 heart:3820 and merciful2617 men376 are taken away,622 none369 considering995 that3588 the righteous6662 is taken away622 from4480 6440 the evil7451 to come.

2  He shall enter935 into peace:7965 they shall rest5117 in5921 their beds,4904 each one walking1980 in his uprightness.5228

3  But draw near7126 hither,2008 ye859 sons1121 of the sorceress,6049 the seed2233 of the adulterer5003 and the whore.2181

4  Against5921 whom4310 do ye sport yourselves?6026 against5921 whom4310 make ye a wide7337 mouth,6310 and draw out748 the tongue?3956 are ye859 not3808 children3206 of transgression,6588 a seed2233 of falsehood,8267

5  Inflaming yourselves2552 with idols410 under8478 every3605 green7488 tree,6086 slaying7819 the children3206 in the valleys5158 under8478 the clefts5585 of the rocks?5553

6  Among the smooth2511 stones of the stream5158 is thy portion;2506 they,1992 they1992 are thy lot:1486 even1571 to them hast thou poured8210 a drink offering,5262 thou hast offered5927 a meat offering.4503 Should I receive comfort5162 in5921 these?428

7  Upon5921 a lofty1364 and high5375 mountain2022 hast thou set7760 thy bed:4904 even1571 thither8033 wentest thou up5927 to offer2076 sacrifice.2077

8  Behind310 the doors1817 also and the posts4201 hast thou set up7760 thy remembrance:2146 for3588 thou hast discovered1540 thyself to another than4480 854 me, and art gone up;5927 thou hast enlarged7337 thy bed,4904 and made3772 thee a covenant with4480 them; thou lovedst157 their bed4904 where3027 thou sawest2372 it.

9  And thou wentest7788 to the king4428 with ointment,8081 and didst increase7235 thy perfumes,7547 and didst send7971 thy messengers6735 far off,5704 4480 7350 and didst debase8213 thyself even unto5704 hell.7585

10  Thou art wearied3021 in the greatness7230 of thy way;1870 yet saidst559 thou not,3808 There is no hope:2976 thou hast found4672 the life2416 of thine hand;3027 therefore5921 3651 thou wast not3808 grieved.2470

11  And of whom4310 hast thou been afraid1672 or feared,3372 that3588 thou hast lied,3576 and hast not3808 remembered2142 me, nor3808 laid7760 it to5921 thy heart?3820 have not3808 I589 held my peace2814 even of old,4480 5769 and thou fearest3372 me not?3808

12  I589 will declare5046 thy righteousness,6666 and thy works;4639 for they shall not3808 profit3276 thee.

13  When thou criest,2199 let thy companies6899 deliver5337 thee; but the wind7307 shall carry them all away;5375 853 3605 vanity1892 shall take3947 them: but he that putteth his trust2620 in me shall possess5157 the land,776 and shall inherit3423 my holy6944 mountain;2022

14  And shall say,559 Cast ye up,5549 cast ye up,5549 prepare6437 the way,1870 take up7311 the stumblingblock4383 out of the way4480 1870 of my people.5971

15  For3588 thus3541 saith559 the high7311 and lofty One5375 that inhabiteth7931 eternity,5703 whose name8034 is Holy;6918 I dwell7931 in the high4791 and holy6918 place, with854 him also that is of a contrite1793 and humble8217 spirit,7307 to revive2421 the spirit7307 of the humble,8217 and to revive2421 the heart3820 of the contrite ones.1792

16  For3588 I will not3808 contend7378 forever,5769 neither3808 will I be always wroth:7107 5331 for3588 the spirit7307 should fail5848 before4480 6440 me, and the souls5397 which I589 have made.6213

17  For the iniquity5771 of his covetousness1215 was I wroth,7107 and smote5221 him: I hid5641 me, and was wroth,7107 and he went1980 on frowardly7726 in the way1870 of his heart.3820

18  I have seen7200 his ways,1870 and will heal7495 him: I will lead5148 him also, and restore7999 comforts5150 unto him and to his mourners.57

19  I create1254 the fruit5108 of the lips;8193 Peace,7965 peace7965 to him that is far off,7350 and to him that is near,7138 saith559 the LORD;3068 and I will heal7495 him.

20  But the wicked7563 are like the troubled1644 sea,3220 when3588 it cannot3201 3808 rest,8252 whose waters4325 cast up1644 mire7516 and dirt.2916

21  There is no369 peace,7965 saith559 my God,430 to the wicked.7563

1 ἴδετε ὡς ὁ δίκαιος ἀπώλετο καὶ οὐδεὶς ἐκδέχεται τῇ καρδίᾳ καὶ ἄνδρες δίκαιοι αἴρονται καὶ οὐδεὶς κατανοεῖ ἀπὸ γὰρ προσώπου ἀδικίας ἦρται ὁ δίκαιος

2 ἔσται ἐν εἰρήνῃ ἡ ταφὴ αὐτοῦ ἦρται ἐκ τοῦ μέσου

3 ὑμεῖς δὲ προσαγάγετε ὧδε υἱοὶ ἄνομοι σπέρμα μοιχῶν καὶ πόρνης

4 ἐν τίνι ἐνετρυφήσατε καὶ ἐπὶ τίνα ἠνοίξατε τὸ στόμα ὑμῶν καὶ ἐπὶ τίνα ἐχαλάσατε τὴν γλῶσσαν ὑμῶν οὐχ ὑμεῖς ἐστε τέκνα ἀπωλείας σπέρμα ἄνομον

5 οἱ παρακαλοῦντες ἐπὶ τὰ εἴδωλα ὑπὸ δένδρα δασέα σφάζοντες τὰ τέκνα αὐτῶν ἐν ταῖς φάραγξιν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν πετρῶν

6 ἐκείνη σου ἡ μερίς οὗτός σου ὁ κλῆρος κἀκείνοις ἐξέχεας σπονδὰς κἀκείνοις ἀνήνεγκας θυσίας ἐπὶ τούτοις οὖν οὐκ ὀργισθήσομαι

7 ἐπ᾽ ὄρος ὑψηλὸν καὶ μετέωρον ἐκεῖ σου ἡ κοίτη κἀκεῖ ἀνεβίβασας θυσίας

8 καὶ ὀπίσω τῶν σταθμῶν τῆς θύρας σου ἔθηκας μνημόσυνά σου ᾤου ὅτι ἐὰν ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ ἀποστῇς πλεῖόν τι ἕξεις ἠγάπησας τοὺς κοιμωμένους μετὰ σοῦ

9 καὶ ἐπλήθυνας τὴν πορνείαν σου μετ᾽ αὐτῶν καὶ πολλοὺς ἐποίησας τοὺς μακρὰν ἀπὸ σοῦ καὶ ἀπέστειλας πρέσβεις ὑπὲρ τὰ ὅριά σου καὶ ἀπέστρεψας καὶ ἐταπεινώθης ἕως ᾅδου

10 ταῖς πολυοδίαις σου ἐκοπίασας καὶ οὐκ εἶπας παύσομαι ἐνισχύουσα ὅτι ἔπραξας ταῦτα διὰ τοῦτο οὐ κατεδεήθης μου

11 σύ τίνα εὐλαβηθεῖσα ἐφοβήθης καὶ ἐψεύσω με καὶ οὐκ ἐμνήσθης μου οὐδὲ ἔλαβές με εἰς τὴν διάνοιαν οὐδὲ εἰς τὴν καρδίαν σου κἀγώ σε ἰδὼν παρορῶ καὶ ἐμὲ οὐκ ἐφοβήθης

12 κἀγὼ ἀπαγγελῶ τὴν δικαιοσύνην μου καὶ τὰ κακά σου ἃ οὐκ ὠφελήσουσίν σε

13 ὅταν ἀναβοήσῃς ἐξελέσθωσάν σε ἐν τῇ θλίψει σου τούτους γὰρ πάντας ἄνεμος λήμψεται καὶ ἀποίσει καταιγίς οἱ δὲ ἀντεχόμενοί μου κτήσονται γῆν καὶ κληρονομήσουσιν τὸ ὄρος τὸ ἅγιόν μου

14 καὶ ἐροῦσιν καθαρίσατε ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ ὁδοὺς καὶ ἄρατε σκῶλα ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ τοῦ λαοῦ μου

15 τάδε λέγει κύριος ὁ ὕψιστος ὁ ἐν ὑψηλοῖς κατοικῶν τὸν αἰῶνα ἅγιος ἐν ἁγίοις ὄνομα αὐτῷ κύριος ὕψιστος ἐν ἁγίοις ἀναπαυόμενος καὶ ὀλιγοψύχοις διδοὺς μακροθυμίαν καὶ διδοὺς ζωὴν τοῖς συντετριμμένοις τὴν καρδίαν

16 οὐκ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἐκδικήσω ὑμᾶς οὐδὲ διὰ παντὸς ὀργισθήσομαι ὑμῖν πνεῦμα γὰρ παρ᾽ ἐμοῦ ἐξελεύσεται καὶ πνοὴν πᾶσαν ἐγὼ ἐποίησα

17 δι᾽ ἁμαρτίαν βραχύ τι ἐλύπησα αὐτὸν καὶ ἐπάταξα αὐτὸν καὶ ἀπέστρεψα τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλυπήθη καὶ ἐπορεύθη στυγνὸς ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ

18 τὰς ὁδοὺς αὐτοῦ ἑώρακα καὶ ἰασάμην αὐτὸν καὶ παρεκάλεσα αὐτὸν καὶ ἔδωκα αὐτῷ παράκλησιν ἀληθινήν

19 εἰρήνην ἐπ᾽ εἰρήνην τοῖς μακρὰν καὶ τοῖς ἐγγὺς οὖσιν καὶ εἶπεν κύριος ἰάσομαι αὐτούς

20 οἱ δὲ ἄδικοι οὕτως κλυδωνισθήσονται καὶ ἀναπαύσασθαι οὐ δυνήσονται

21 οὐκ ἔστιν χαίρειν τοῖς ἀσεβέσιν εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεός

Vul

1 [Justus perit,
et non est qui recogitet in corde suo;
et viri misericordiæ colliguntur,
quia non est qui intelligat:
a facie enim malitiæ collectus est justus.

2 Veniat pax;
requiescat in cubili suo
qui ambulavit in directione sua.

3 Vos autem accedite huc,
filii auguratricis,
semen adulteri et fornicariæ.

4 Super quem lusistis?
super quem dilatastis os,
et ejecistis linguam?
Numquid non vos filii scelesti,
semen mendax,

5 qui consolamini in diis
subter omne lignum frondosum,
immolantes parvulos in torrentibus,
subter eminentes petras?

6 In partibus torrentis pars tua;
hæc est sors tua:
et ipsis effudisti libamen,
obtulisti sacrificium.
Numquid super his non indignabor?

7 Super montem excelsum et sublimem
posuisti cubile tuum,
et illuc ascendisti
ut immolares hostias.

8 Et post ostium, et retro postem,
posuisti memoriale tuum.
Quia juxta me discooperuisti,
et suscepisti adulterum, dilatasti cubile tuum,
et pepigisti cum eis fœdus;
dilexisti stratum eorum
manu aperta.

9 Et ornasti te regi unguento,
et multiplicasti pigmenta tua.
Misisti legatos tuos procul,
et humiliata es usque ad inferos.

10 In multitudine viæ tuæ laborasti;
non dixisti: Quiescam.
Vitam manus tuæ invenisti;
propterea non rogasti.

11 Pro quo sollicita timuisti,
quia mentita es,
et mei non es recordata,
neque cogitasti in corde tuo?
Quia ego tacens et quasi non videns,
et mei oblita es.

12 Ego annuntiabo justitiam tuam,
et opera tua non proderunt tibi.

13 Cum clamaveris, liberent te congregati tui,
et omnes eos auferet ventus,
tollet aura.]
[Qui autem fiduciam habet mei, hæreditabit terram,
et possidebit montem sanctum meum.

14 Et dicam: Viam facite, præbete iter; declinate de semita,
auferte offendicula de via populi mei.

15 Quia hæc dicit Excelsus,
et Sublimis, habitans æternitatem, et sanctum nomen ejus:
in excelso et in sancto habitans,
et cum contrito et humili spiritu:
ut vivificet spiritum humilium,
et vivificet cor contritorum.

16 Non enim in sempiternum litigabo,
neque usque ad finem irascar,
quia spiritus a facie mea egredietur,
et flatus ego faciam.

17 Propter iniquitatem avaritiæ ejus iratus sum, et percussi eum.
Abscondi a te faciem meam, et indignatus sum;
et abiit vagus in via cordis sui.

18 Vias ejus vidi, et sanavi eum;
et reduxi eum, et reddidi consolationes
ipsi, et lugentibus ejus.

19 Creavi fructum labiorum pacem;
pacem ei qui longe est et qui prope,
dixit Dominus, et sanavi eum.

20 Impii autem quasi mare fervens,
quod quiescere non potest,
et redundant fluctus ejus in conculcationem et lutum.

21 Non est pax impiis, dicit Dominus Deus.]
