KJV ¹ Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;

VULC ¹ [Hæc dicit Dominus christo meo Cyro,
cujus apprehendi dexteram,
ut subjiciam ante faciem ejus gentes,
et dorsa regum vertam,
et aperiam coram eo januas,
et portæ non claudentur :

KJV ² I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:

VULC ² Ego ante te ibo, et gloriosos terræ humiliabo ;
portas æreas conteram,
et vectes ferreos confringam :

KJV ³ And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.

VULC ³ et dabo tibi thesauros absconditos,
et arcana secretorum,
ut scias quia ego Dominus,
qui voco nomen tuum, Deus Israël,

KJV ⁴ For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me.

VULC ⁴ propter servum meum Jacob,
et Israël, electum meum ;
et vocavi te nomine tuo :
assimilavi te, et non cognovisti me.

KJV ⁵ I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:

VULC ⁵ Ego Dominus, et non est amplius ;
extra me non est deus ;
accinxi te, et non cognovisti me :

KJV ⁶ That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else.

VULC ⁶ ut sciant hi qui ab ortu solis et qui ab occidente,
quoniam absque me non est :
ego Dominus, et non est alter :

KJV ⁷ I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

VULC ⁷ formans lucem et creans tenebras,
faciens pacem et creans malum :
ego Dominus faciens omnia hæc.

KJV ⁸ Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.

VULC ⁸ Rorate, cæli, desuper,
et nubes pluant justum ;
aperiatur terra, et germinet Salvatorem,
et justitia oriatur simul :
ego Dominus creavi eum.]

KJV ⁹ Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?

VULC ⁹ [Væ qui contradicit fictori suo,
testa de samiis terræ !
Numquid dicet lutum figulo suo : Quid facis,
et opus tuum absque manibus est ?

KJV ¹⁰ Woe unto him that saith unto his father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?

VULC ¹⁰ Væ qui dicit patri : Quid generas ?
et mulieri : Quid parturis ?

KJV ¹¹ Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.

VULC ¹¹ Hæc dicit Dominus,
Sanctus Israël, plastes ejus :
Ventura interrogate me ;
super filios meos et super opus manuum mearum mandate mihi.

KJV ¹² I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.

VULC ¹² Ego feci terram,
et hominem super eam creavi ego :
manus meæ tetenderunt cælos,
et omni militiæ eorum mandavi.

KJV ¹³ I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD of hosts.

VULC ¹³ Ego suscitavi eum ad justitiam,
et omnes vias ejus dirigam ;
ipse ædificabit civitatem meam,
et captivitatem meam dimittet,
non in pretio neque in muneribus,
dicit Dominus Deus exercituum.]

KJV ¹⁴ Thus saith the LORD, The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee, saying, Surely God is in thee; and there is none else, there is no God.

VULC ¹⁴ [Hæc dicit Dominus :
Labor Ægypti, et negotiatio Æthiopiæ,
et Sabaim viri sublimes
ad te transibunt, et tui erunt ;
post te ambulabunt,
vincti manicis pergent, et te adorabunt,
teque deprecabuntur.
Tantum in te est Deus,
et non est absque te deus.

KJV ¹⁵ Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.

VULC ¹⁵ Vere tu es Deus absconditus,
Deus Israël, salvator.

KJV ¹⁶ They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they shall go to confusion together that are makers of idols.

VULC ¹⁶ Confusi sunt, et erubuerunt omnes :
simul abierunt in confusionem fabricatores errorum.

KJV ¹⁷ But Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.

VULC ¹⁷ Israël salvatus est in Domino salute æterna ;
non confundemini, et non erubescetis usque in sæculum sæculi.

KJV ¹⁸ For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.

VULC ¹⁸ Quia hæc dicit Dominus
creans cælos,
ipse Deus formans terram
et faciens eam, ipse plastes ejus ;
non in vanum creavit eam :
ut habitaretur formavit eam :
Ego Dominus, et non est alius.

KJV ¹⁹ I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.

VULC ¹⁹ Non in abscondito locutus sum,
in loco terræ tenebroso ;
non dixi semini Jacob frustra :
Quærite me :
ego Dominus loquens justitiam,
annuntians recta.

KJV ²⁰ Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.

VULC ²⁰ Congregamini, et venite, et accedite simul
qui salvati estis ex gentibus :
nescierunt qui levant lignum sculpturæ suæ,
et rogant deum non salvantem.

KJV ²¹ Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.

VULC ²¹ Annuntiate, et venite,
et consiliamini simul.
Quis auditum fecit hoc ab initio,
ex tunc prædixit illud ?
numquid non ego Dominus,
et non est ultra deus absque me ?
Deus justus, et salvans non est præter me.

KJV ²² Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.

VULC ²² Convertimini ad me, et salvi eritis,
omnes fines terræ,
quia ego Deus, et non est alius.

KJV ²³ I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

VULC ²³ In memetipso juravi ;
egredietur de ore meo justitiæ verbum,
et non revertetur :
quia mihi curvabitur omne genu,
et jurabit omnis lingua.

KJV ²⁴ Surely, shall one say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.

VULC ²⁴ Ergo in Domino, dicet,
meæ sunt justitiæ et imperium ;
ad eum venient, et confundentur
omnes qui repugnant ei.

KJV ²⁵ In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.

VULC ²⁵ In Domino justificabitur, et laudabitur
omne semen Israël.]
