Commentary on Isaiah Volume 1 John Calvin (continued)
COMMENTARY ON ISAIAH
desire of our soul is to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee.
8. Etiam in via judiciorum tuorum, Iehova, speravimus in te, ad nomen tuum, et memoriam tui desiderium animæ.
9. With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.
9. Anima mea desideravit te per noctem; quin et spiritu meo intra me te mane (vel, sedulo) quæram; nam ex quo fuerint judicia tua in terra, justitiam discent incolæ terræ.
10. Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the Lord.
10. Impius gratiam obtinebit, nec discet justitiam; in terra rectorum operum perverse aget, nec videbit magnificentiam Iehovæ.
11. Lord, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.
11. Iehova, utcunque exaltata fuerit manus tua, non videbunt; videbunt et pudefient æmulatione populi; quin et ignis hostium tuorum vorabit eos.
12. Lord, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our works in us.
12. Iehova, ordinabis nobis pacem; nam et omnia opera nostra operatus es nobis.
13. O Lord our God, other lords besides thee have had dominion over us; but by thee only will we make mention of thy name.
13. Iehova Deus noster, subjugaverunt nos domini præter te; tantum in te recordabimur nominis tui.
14 They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish.
14. Mortui non vivent; occisi non resurgent; propterea visitasti, et exterminasti eos; et perdidisti omnem memoriam eorum.
15. Thou hast increased the nation, O Lord, thou hast increased the nation: thou art glorified: thou hadst removed it far unto all the ends of the earth.
15. Addidisti genti, Iehova; addidisti genti; glorificatus es; dilatasti omnes fines terræ.
16. Lord, in trouble have they visited thee; they poured out a prayer when thy chastening was upon them.
16. Iehova, in tribulatione visitaverunt te, effuderunt precationem, dum castigatio tua super eos.
17. Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs; so have we been in thy sight, O Lord.
17. Sicut prægnans, quæ ad partum propinquat, dolet, clamat in doloribus
