| 1 | Malheur à ceux qui prononcent des ordonnances iniques, Et à ceux qui transcrivent des arrêts injustes, | Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness which they have prescribed; | Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers that write perverseness; | Guai a quelli che promulgano decreti iniqui e a quelli che continuano a redigere sentenze ingiuste |
| 2 | Pour refuser justice aux pauvres, Et ravir leur droit aux malheureux de mon peuple, Pour faire des veuves leur proie, Et des orphelins leur butin ! | To turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and that they may rob the fatherless! | to turn aside the needy from justice, and to rob the poor of my people of their right, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey! | per negare giustizia ai miseri, per spogliare del diritto i poveri del mio popolo, e far così delle vedove la loro preda e degli orfani il loro bottino. |
| 3 | Que ferez-vous au jour du châtiment, Et de la ruine qui du lointain fondra sur vous ? Vers qui fuirez-vous, pour avoir du secours, Et où laisserez-vous votre gloire ? | And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory? | And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory? | Che farete nel giorno del castigo e della distruzione che verrà da lontano? Da chi fuggirete in cerca di aiuto e a chi lascerete la vostra ricchezza? |
| 4 | Les uns seront courbés parmi les captifs, Les autres tomberont parmi les morts. Malgré tout cela, sa colère ne s'apaise point, Et sa main est encore étendue. | Without me they shall bow down under the prisoners, and they shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. | They shall only bow down under the prisoners, and shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. | Non resterà loro che curvarsi fra i prigionieri o cadere fra gli uccisi. Malgrado tutto ciò la sua ira non si calma e la sua mano rimane distesa. |
| 5 | Malheur à l'Assyrien, verge de ma colère ! La verge dans sa main, c'est l'instrument de ma fureur. | O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand is mine indignation. | Ho Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, the staff in whose hand is mine indignation! | Guai all'Assiria, la verga della mia ira nelle cui mani c'è il bastone della mia indignazione! |
| 6 | Je l'ai lâché contre une nation impie, Je l'ai fait marcher contre le peuple de mon courroux, Pour qu'il se livre au pillage et fasse du butin, Pour qu'il le foule aux pieds comme la boue des rues. | I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets. | I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets. | Io la manderò contro una nazione empia e contro il popolo della mia ira. Le comanderò di saccheggiarlo, di depredarlo e di calpestarlo come il fango delle strade. |
| 7 | Mais il n'en juge pas ainsi, Et ce n'est pas là la pensée de son coeur ; Il ne songe qu'à détruire, Qu'à exterminer les nations en foule. | Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy and cut off nations not a few. | Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off nations not a few. | Essa però non intende così e nel suo cuore non pensa così, ma ha in cuore di distruggere e di sterminare un gran numero di nazioni. |
| 8 | Car il dit : Mes princes ne sont-ils pas autant de rois ? | For he saith, Are not my princes altogether kings? | For he saith, Are not my princes all of them kings? | Infatti dice: I miei principi non sono tutti quanti re? |
| 9 | N'en a-t-il pas été de Calno comme de Carkemisch ? N'en a-t-il pas été de Hamath comme d'Arpad ? N'en a-t-il pas été de Samarie comme de Damas ? | Is not Calno as Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as Damascus? | Is not Calno as Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as Damascus? | Non è Kalno come Karkemish? Non è Hamath come Arpad? Non è Samaria come Damasco? |
| 10 | De même que ma main a atteint les royaumes des idoles, Où il y avait plus d'images qu'à Jérusalem et à Samarie, | As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols, and whose graven images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria; | As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols, whose graven images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria; | Come la mia mano ha raggiunto i regni degli idoli le cui immagini scolpite erano più numerose di quelle di Gerusalemme e di Samaria, |
| 11 | Ce que j'ai fait à Samarie et à ses idoles, Ne le ferai-je pas à Jérusalem et à ses images ? | Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols? | shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols? | come ho fatto a Samaria e ai suoi idoli, non farò pure così a Gerusalemme e ai suoi idoli?. |
| 12 | Mais, quand le Seigneur aura accompli toute son oeuvre Sur la montagne de Sion et à Jérusalem, Je punirai le roi d'Assyrie pour le fruit de son coeur orgueilleux, Et pour l'arrogance de ses regards hautains. | Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks. | Wherefore it shall come to pass, that, when the Lord hath performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks. | Ma avverrà che, quando il Signore avrà portato a termine tutta la sua opera sul monte Sion e a Gerusalemme, egli dirà: Io punirò il frutto dell'alterigia del cuore del re di Assiria e la gloria dei suoi occhi alteri. |
| 13 | Car il dit : C'est par la force de ma main que j'ai agi, C'est par ma sagesse, car je suis intelligent ; J'ai reculé les limites des peuples, et pillé leurs trésors, Et, comme un héros, j'ai renversé ceux qui siégeaient sur des trônes ; | For he saith, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down the inhabitants like a valiant man: | For he hath said, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I have understanding: and I have removed the bounds of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures, and like a valiant man I have brought down them that sit [on thrones]: | Infatti egli dice: L'ho fatto con la forza della mia mano e con la mia sapienza, perché sono intelligente, ho rimosso i confini dei popoli, ho depredato i loro tesori e come uomo potente ho deposto quelli che erano sul trono. |
| 14 | J'ai mis la main sur les richesses des peuples, comme sur un nid, Et, comme on ramasse des oeufs abandonnés, J'ai ramassé toute la terre : Nul n'a remué l'aile, Ni ouvert le bec, ni poussé un cri. - | And my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people: and as one gathereth eggs that are left, have I gathered all the earth; and there was none that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or peeped. | and my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the peoples; and as one gathereth eggs that are forsaken, have I gathered all the earth: and there was none that moved the wing, or that opened the mouth, or chirped. | La mia mano ha trovato come un nido le ricchezze dei popoli, come uno raccoglie delle uova abbandonate, così io ho raccolto la terra intera e non ci fu nessuno che abbia mosso le ali, o abbia aperto il becco e pigolato. |
| 15 | La hache se glorifie-t-elle envers celui qui s'en sert ? Ou la scie est-elle arrogante envers celui qui la manie ? Comme si la verge faisait mouvoir celui qui la lève, Comme si le bâton soulevait celui qui n'est pas du bois ! | Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith? or shall the saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it? as if the rod should shake itself against them that lift it up, or as if the staff should lift up itself, as if it were no wood. | Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith? shall the saw magnify itself against him that wieldeth it? as if a rod should wield them that lift it up, [or] as if a staff should lift up [him that is] not wood. | La scure si gloria forse con chi taglia con essa o si fa grande la sega con chi la maneggia? Come se la verga dovesse dirigere colui che la alza, o come se il bastone potesse alzarsi come se non fosse legno! |
| 16 | C'est pourquoi le Seigneur, le Seigneur des armées, enverra Le dépérissement parmi ses robustes guerriers ; Et, sous sa magnificence, éclatera un embrasement, Comme l'embrasement d'un feu. | Therefore shall the Lord, the Lord of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory he shall kindle a burning like the burning of a fire. | Therefore will the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory there shall be kindled a burning like the burning of fire. | Perciò il Signore, l'Eterno degli eserciti, manderà la consunzione tra le sue schiere più valide, e al posto della sua gloria egli accenderà un fuoco, come il fuoco di un incendio. |
| 17 | La lumière d'Israël deviendra un feu, Et son Saint une flamme, Qui consumera et dévorera ses épines et ses ronces, En un seul jour ; | And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day; | And the light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day. | Così la luce d'Israele diventerà un fuoco e il suo Santo una fiamma, che arderà e divorerà i suoi rovi e i suoi pruni in un sol giorno. |
| 18 | Qui consumera, corps et âme, La magnificence de sa forêt et de ses campagnes. Il en sera comme d'un malade, qui tombe en défaillance. | And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body: and they shall be as when a standard-bearer fainteth. | And he will consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body: and it shall be as when a standard-bearer fainteth. | Egli consumerà la gloria della sua foresta e della sua fertile campagna dall'anima fino al corpo; sarà come un ammalato che viene meno. |
| 19 | Le reste des arbres de sa forêt pourra être compté, Et un enfant en écrirait le nombre. | And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child may write them. | And the remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child may write them. | Il resto degli alberi della sua foresta sarà ridotto a un numero così esiguo che persino un bambino potrebbe farne il conto. |
| 20 | En ce jour-là, Le reste d'Israël et les réchappés de la maison de Jacob, Cesseront de s'appuyer sur celui qui les frappait ; Ils s'appuieront avec confiance sur l'Éternel, le Saint d'Israël. | And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. | And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and they that are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again lean upon him that smote them, but shall lean upon Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. | In quel giorno avverrà che il residuo d'Israele e gli scampati della casa di Giacobbe non si appoggeranno più su colui che li colpiva, ma si appoggeranno in verità sull'Eterno, il Santo d'Israele. |
| 21 | Le reste reviendra, le reste de Jacob, Au Dieu puissant. | The remnant shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God. | A remnant shall return, [even] the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God. | Un residuo, il residuo di Giacobbe tornerà al Dio potente. |
| 22 | Quand ton peuple, ô Israël, serait comme le sable de la mer, Un reste seulement reviendra ; La destruction est résolue, elle fera déborder la justice. | For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness. | For though thy people, Israel, be as the sand of the sea, [only] a remnant of them shall return: a destruction [is] determined, overflowing with righteousness. | Poiché, anche se il tuo popolo, o Israele, fosse come la sabbia del mare solo un suo residuo tornerà; lo sterminio decretato farà traboccare la giustizia. |
| 23 | Et cette destruction qui a été résolue, Le Seigneur, l'Éternel des armées, l'accomplira dans tout le pays. | For the Lord GOD of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, in the midst of all the land. | For a full end, and that determined, will the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, make in the midst of all the earth. | Infatti il Signore, l'Eterno degli eserciti, compirà lo sterminio decretato in mezzo a tutta la terra. |
| 24 | Cependant, ainsi parle le Seigneur, l'Éternel des armées : O mon peuple, qui habites en Sion, ne crains pas l'Assyrien ! Il te frappe de la verge, Et il lève son bâton sur toi, comme faisaient les Égyptiens. | Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt. | Therefore thus saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian, though he smite thee with the rod, and lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt. | Perciò così dice il Signore, l'Eterno degli eserciti: O popolo mio, che abiti in Sion, non temere l'Assiro, che ti percuote con la verga e alza il suo bastone contro di te, come fece l'Egitto. |
| 25 | Mais, encore un peu de temps, Et le châtiment cessera, Puis ma colère se tournera contre lui pour l'anéantir. | For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction. | For yet a very little while, and the indignation [against thee] shall be accomplished, and mine anger [shall be directed] to his destruction. | Poiché ancora un breve tempo, e l'indignazione cesserà, mentre la mia ira si volgerà alla loro distruzione. |
| 26 | L'Éternel des armées agitera le fouet contre lui, Comme il frappa Madian au rocher d'Oreb ; Et, de même qu'il leva son bâton sur la mer, Il le lèvera encore, comme en Égypte. | And the LORD of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and as his rod was upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt. | And Jehovah of hosts will stir up against him a scourge, as in the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and his rod will be over the sea, and he will lift it up after the manner of Egypt. | L'Eterno degli eserciti leverà contro di lui la sferza, come quando colpì Madian al masso di Horeb; e come distese il suo bastone sul mare, così lo alzerà ancora come fece in Egitto. |
| 27 | En ce jour, son fardeau sera ôté de dessus ton épaule, Et son joug de dessus ton cou ; Et la graisse fera éclater le joug. | And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing. | And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall depart from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed by reason of fatness. | In quel giorno avverrà che il suo carico sarà allontanato dalle tue spalle e il suo giogo dal tuo collo; il giogo sarà distrutto dall'unzione dell'olio. |
| 28 | Il marche sur Ajjath, traverse Migron, Laisse ses bagages à Micmasch. | He is come to Aiath, he is passed to Migron; at Michmash he hath laid up his carriages: | He is come to Aiath, he is passed through Migron; at Michmash he layeth up his baggage; | Egli arriva a Aiath, oltrepassa Migron, depone i suoi bagagli a Mikmash. |
| 29 | Ils passent le défilé, Ils couchent à Guéba ; Rama tremble, Guibea de Saül prend la fuite. | They are gone over the passage: they have taken up their lodging at Geba; Ramah is afraid; Gibeah of Saul is fled. | they are gone over the pass; they have taken up their lodging at Geba; Ramah trembleth; Gibeah of Saul is fled. | Valicano il passo, si accampano a Gheba; Ramah trema, Ghibeah di Saul è fuggita. |
| 30 | Fais éclater ta voix, fille de Gallim ! Prends garde, Laïs ! malheur à toi, Anathoth ! | Lift up thy voice, O daughter of Gallim: cause it to be heard unto Laish, O poor Anathoth. | Cry aloud with thy voice, O daughter of Gallim! hearken, O Laishah! O thou poor Anathoth! | Alza la tua voce, o figlia di Gallim! Presta attenzione, o Laish! Povera Anathoth! |
| 31 | Madména se disperse, Les habitants de Guébim sont en fuite. | Madmenah is removed; the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee. | Madmenah is a fugitive; the inhabitants of Gebim flee for safety. | Madmenah è fuggita, gli abitanti di Ghebim cercano un rifugio. |
| 32 | Encore un jour de halte à Nob, Et il menace de sa main la montagne de la fille de Sion, La colline de Jérusalem. | As yet shall he remain at Nob that day: he shall shake his hand against the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem. | This very day shall he halt at Nob: he shaketh his hand at the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem. | Tuttavia oggi farà sosta a Nob, agitando il pugno contro il monte della figlia di Sion, la collina di Gerusalemme. |
| 33 | Voici, le Seigneur, l'Éternel des armées, Brise les rameaux avec violence : Les plus grands sont coupés, Les plus élevés sont abattus. | Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall lop the bough with terror: and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the haughty shall be humbled. | Behold, the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, will lop the boughs with terror: and the high of stature shall be hewn down, and the lofty shall be brought low. | Ecco, il Signore, l'Eterno degli eserciti, stroncherà i rami con terribile violenza; i più alti saranno tagliati, i più altezzosi saranno abbassati. |
| 34 | Il renverse avec le fer les taillis de la forêt, Et le Liban tombe sous le Puissant. | And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one. | And he will cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one. | Egli abbatterà con la scure il folto della foresta, e il Libano cadrà sotto i colpi del Potente. |
