Commentary on Isaiah Volume 2 John Calvin
JOHN CALVIN
6. And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.
6. Et conculcabo populos in ira mea, et inebriabo cos furore meo, et prosternam fortitudinem eorum in terram.
7. I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.
7. Misericordias Iehovae memoria repetam; laudes Iehovae tanquam super omnibus quae contulit nobis Iehova, et multitudine beneficentiae erga domum Israel, quam contulit illis secundum misericordias suas, et secundum multitudinem miserationum suarum.
8. For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour.
8. Nam dixit, Certe populus meus sunt, filii qui non mentiuntur; itaque factus est illis servator.
9. In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.
9. In omni angustia eorum illi fuit (vel, Non fuit); et Angelus faciei ejus servavit eos; in dilectione sua et clementia sua ipse redemit eos; portavit eos et extulit, omnibus diebus seculi.
10. But they rebelled, and vexed his Holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.
10. Verum illi rebelles fuerunt, et irritaverunt Spiritum Sanctum ejus. Ideo conversus illis in hostem pugnavit ipse contra eos.
11. Then he remembered the days of old, Moses and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his Holy Spirit within him?
11. Et recordatus est dierum priscorum, quibus Moses fuit cum populo ejus. Ubi est qui ascendere fecit eos e mari, cure pastore gregis sui? Ubi est qui posuit in medio ejus Spiritum suum Sanctum?
12. That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
12. Qui duxit ad dexteram Mosis brachio magnificentiae suae, qui divisit aquas coram ipsis, ad comparandum sibi nomen perpetuum?
13. That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble?
13. Qui fecit eos ingredi per abyssos, tanquam equum in deserto, ut non impegerint.
14. As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make, thyself a glorious name.
14. Tanquam jumentum in planitiem descendit, Spiritus Iehovae requiem
