55 ISAIAS PROPHETA Isaiah - Wycliffe Bible(14c) Isaias - Douay Rheims(17c) Reference
1Omnes sitientes, venite ad aquas,
et qui non habetis argentum,
properate, emite, et comedite:
venite, emite absque argento
et absque ulla commutatione
vinum et lac.
 God's offer of mercy. Is.55.1-13
2Quare appenditis argentum non in panibus,
et laborem vestrum non in saturitate?
Audite, audientes me, et comedite bonum,
et delectabitur in crassitudine anima vestra.
  
3Inclinate aurem vestram, et venite ad me;
audite, et vivet anima vestra,
et feriam vobiscum pactum sempiternum,
misericordias David fideles.
  
4Ecce testem populis dedi eum,
ducem ac præceptorem gentibus.
  
5Ecce gentem quam nesciebas vocabis,
et gentes quæ te non cognoverunt ad te current,
propter Dominum Deum tuum,
et Sanctum Israël, quia glorificavit te.
  
6Quærite Dominum dum inveniri potest;
invocate eum dum prope est.
  
7Derelinquat impius viam suam,
et vir iniquus cogitationes suas,
et revertatur ad Dominum, et miserebitur ejus;
et ad Deum nostrum, quoniam multus est ad ignoscendum.
  
8Non enim cogitationes meæ cogitationes vestræ,
neque viæ vestræ viæ meæ, dicit Dominus.
  
9Quia sicut exaltantur cæli a terra,
sic exaltatæ sunt viæ meæ a viis vestris,
et cogitationes meæ a cogitationibus vestris.
  
10Et quomodo descendit imber et nix de cælo,
et illuc ultra non revertitur,
sed inebriat terram, et infundit eam,
et germinare eam facit,
et dat semen serenti,
et panem c		  
11sic erit verbum meum quod egredietur de ore meo;
non revertetur ad me vacuum,
sed faciet quæcumque volui,
et prosperabitur in his ad quæ misi illud.
  
12Quia in lætitia egrediemini,
et in pace deducemini;
montes et colles cantabunt coram vobis laudem,
et omnia ligna regionis plaudent manu.
  
13Pro saliunca ascendet abies,
et pro urtica crescet myrtus;
et erit Dominus nominatus
in signum æternum quod non auferetur.		  

Notes: For the Bible in Latin, I have used the Vulgate text at the Clementine Vulgate Project website.
The only English translations from the Vulgate that are readily available are John Wycliffe's 14th century English Bible, and the the Douay Rheims/Challoner versions. I have used the Wycliffe Bible text from the Wesley Centre website, where you can view this Bible in a number of formats. I have used the Douay Rheims Text at the Unbound Bible website. You can view the Douay Rheims Bible in a more readable format at DRBO.ORG website.
The katapi New Study Bible reference section: displays links to parallel passages. Passage headings are generally as printed in the Bible Society's "Good News Bible", 1976. To view the Greek Text on this page, you will need a Unicode font capable of displaying extended Greek characters. To find out about Unicode fonts, go to Alan Wood's Unicode Resources.
