65:1 quaesierunt me qui ante non interrogabant invenerunt qui non quaesierunt me dixi ecce ego ecce ego ad gentem quae non vocabat nomen meum 65:1. They have sought me that before asked not for me, they have found me that sought me not. I said: Behold me, behold me, to a nation that did not call upon my name.
65:2 expandi manus meas tota die ad populum incredulum qui graditur in via non bona post cogitationes suas 65:2. I have spread forth my hands all the day to an unbelieving people, who walk in a way that is not good after their own thoughts.
65:3 populus qui ad iracundiam provocat me ante faciem meam semper qui immolant in hortis et sacrificant super lateres 65:3. A people that continually provoke me to anger before my face, that immolate in gardens, and sacrifice upon bricks.
65:4 qui habitant in sepulchris et in delubris idolorum dormiunt qui comedunt carnem suillam et ius profanum in vasis eorum 65:4. That dwell in sepulchres, and sleep in the temple of idols: that eat swine's flesh, and profane broth is in their vessels.
65:5 qui dicunt recede a me non adpropinques mihi quia inmundus es isti fumus erunt in furore meo ignis ardens tota die 65:5. That say: Depart from me, come not near me, because thou art unclean: these shall be smoke in my anger, a fire burning all the day.
65:6 ecce scriptum est coram me non tacebo sed reddam et retribuam in sinu eorum 65:6. Behold it is written before me: I will not be silent, but I will render and repay into their bosom.
65:7 iniquitates vestras et iniquitates patrum vestrorum simul dicit Dominus qui sacrificaverunt super montes et super colles exprobraverunt mihi et remetiar opus eorum primum in sinu eorum 65:7. Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the Lord, who have sacrificed upon the mountains, and have reproached me upon the hills; and I will measure back their first work in their bosom.
65:8 haec dicit Dominus quomodo si inveniatur granum in botro et dicatur ne dissipes illud quoniam benedictio est sic faciam propter servos meos ut non disperdam totum 65:8. Thus saith the Lord: As if a grain be found in a cluster, and it be said: Destroy it not, because it is a blessing: so will I do for the sake of my servants, that I may not destroy the whole.
65:9 et educam de Iacob semen et de Iuda possidentem montes meos et hereditabunt eam electi mei et servi mei habitabunt ibi 65:9. And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Juda a possessor of my mountains: and my elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
65:10 et erunt campestria in caulas gregum et vallis Achor in cubile armentorum populo meo qui requisierunt me 65:10. And the plains shall be turned to folds of flocks, and the valley of Achor into a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.
65:11 et vos qui dereliquistis Dominum qui obliti estis montem sanctum meum qui ponitis Fortunae mensam et libatis super eam 65:11. And you, that have forsaken the Lord, that have forgotten my holy mount, that set a table for fortune, and offer libations upon it,
65:12 numerabo vos in gladio et omnes in caede corruetis pro eo quod vocavi et non respondistis locutus sum et non audistis et faciebatis malum in oculis meis et quae nolui elegistis 65:12. I will number you in the sword, and you shall all fall by slaughter: because I called and you did not answer: I spoke, and you did not hear: and you did evil in my eyes, and you have chosen the things that displease me.
65:13 propter hoc haec dicit Dominus Deus ecce servi mei comedent et vos esurietis ecce servi mei bibent et vos sitietis 65:13. Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold my servants shall eat, and you shall be hungry: behold my servants shall drink, and you shall be thirsty.
65:14 ecce servi mei laetabuntur et vos confundemini ecce servi mei laudabunt prae exultatione cordis et vos clamabitis prae dolore cordis et prae contritione spiritus ululabitis 65:14. Behold my servants shall rejoice, and you shall be confounded: behold my servants shall praise for joyfulness of heart, and you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for grief of spirit.
65:15 et dimittetis nomen vestrum in iuramentum electis meis et interficiet te Dominus Deus et servos suos vocabit nomine alio 65:15. And you shall leave your name for an execration to my elect: and the Lord God shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name.
65:16 in quo qui benedictus est super terram benedicetur in Deo amen et qui iurat in terra iurabit in Deo amen quia oblivioni traditae sunt angustiae priores et quia absconditae sunt ab oculis nostris 65:16. In which he that is blessed upon the earth, shall be blessed in God, amen: and he that sweareth in the earth, shall swear by God, amen: because the former distresses are forgotten, and because they are hid from my eyes.
65:17 ecce enim ego creo caelos novos et terram novam et non erunt in memoria priora et non ascendent super cor 65:17. For behold I create new heavens, and a new earth: and the former things shall not be in remembrance, and they shall not come upon the heart.
65:18 sed gaudebitis et exultabitis usque in sempiternum in his quae ego creo quia ecce ego creo Hierusalem exultationem et populum eius gaudium 65:18. But you shall be glad and rejoice for ever in these things, which I create: for behold I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and the people thereof joy.
65:19 et exultabo in Hierusalem et gaudebo in populo meo et non audietur in eo ultra vox fletus et vox clamoris 65:19. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people, and the voice of weeping shall no more be heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
65:20 non erit ibi amplius infans dierum et senex qui non impleat dies suos quoniam puer centum annorum morietur et peccator centum annorum maledictus erit 65:20. There shall no more be an infant of days there, nor an old man that shall not fill up his days: for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.
65:21 et aedificabunt domos et habitabunt et plantabunt vineas et comedent fructum earum 65:21. And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruits of them.
65:22 non aedificabunt et alius habitabit non plantabunt et alius comedet secundum dies enim ligni erunt dies populi mei et opera manuum eorum inveterabunt 65:22. They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree, so shall be the days of my people, and the works of their hands shall be of long continuance.
65:23 electis meis non laborabunt frustra neque generabunt in conturbatione quia semen benedictorum Domini est et nepotes eorum cum eis 65:23. My elect shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth in trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the Lord, and their posterity with them.
65:24 eritque antequam clament ego exaudiam adhuc illis loquentibus ego audiam 65:24. And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will hear; as they are yet speaking, I will hear.
65:25 lupus et agnus pascentur simul et leo et bos comedent paleas et serpenti pulvis panis eius non nocebunt neque occident in omni monte sancto meo dicit Dominus 65:25. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together; the lion and the ox shall eat straw; and dust shall be the serpent's food: they shall not hurt nor kill in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord.
