Isaías 22
Riveduta 1927
1Oracolo contro la Valle della Visione. Che hai tu dunque che tu sia tutta quanta salita sui tetti,
2o città piena di clamori, città di tumulti, città piena di gaiezza? I tuoi uccisi non sono uccisi di spada né morti in battaglia.
3Tutti i tuoi capi fuggono assieme, son fatti prigionieri senza che l’arco sia stato tirato; tutti quelli de’ tuoi che sono trovati son fatti prigionieri, benché fuggiti lontano.
4Perciò dico: “Stornate da me lo sguardo, io vo’ piangere amaramente; non insistete nel volermi consolare del disastro della figliuola del mio popolo!”
5Poiché è un giorno di tumulto, di calpestamento, di perplessità, il giorno del Signore, dell’Eterno degli eserciti, nella Valle delle Visioni. Si abbatton le mura, il grido d’angoscia giunge fino ai monti.
6Elam porta il turcasso con delle truppe sui carri, e dei cavalieri; Kir snuda lo scudo.
7Le tue più belle valli son piene di carri, e i cavalieri prendon posizioni davanti alle tue porte.
8Il velo è strappato a Giuda; in quel giorno, ecco che volgete lo sguardo all’arsenale del palazzo della Foresta,
9osservate che le brecce della città di Davide son numerose, e raccogliete le acque dal serbatoio disotto;
10contate le case di Gerusalemme, e demolite le case per fortificare mura;
11fate un bacino fra le due mura per le acque del serbatoio antico, ma non volgete lo sguardo a Colui che ha fatto queste cose, e non vedete Colui che da lungo tempo le ha preparate.
12Il Signore, l’Eterno degli eserciti, vi chiama in questo giorno a piangere, a far lamento, e radervi il capo, a cingere il sacco,
13ed ecco che tutto è gioia, tutto è festa! Si ammazzano buoi, si scannano pecore, si mangia carne, si beve vino… “Mangiamo e beviamo, poiché domani morremo!”
14Ma l’Eterno degli eserciti me l’ha rivelato chiaramente: No, questa iniquità non la potrete espiare che con la vostra morte, dice il Signore, l’Iddio degli eserciti.
15Così parla il Signore, l’Eterno degli eserciti: Va’ a trovare questo cortigiano, Scebna, prefetto del palazzo e digli:
16Che hai tu qui, e chi hai tu qui, che ti sei fatto scavar qui un sepolcro? Scavarsi un sepolcro in alto!… Lavorarsi una dimora nella roccia!…
17Ecco, l’Eterno ti lancerà via con braccio vigoroso, farà di te un gomitolo,
18ti farà rotolare, rotolare come una palla sopra una spaziosa pianura. Quivi morrai, quivi saranno i tuoi carri superbi, o vituperio della casa del tuo Signore!
19Io ti caccerò dal tuo ufficio, e tu sarai buttato giù dal tuo posto!
20In quel giorno, io chiamerò il mio servo Eliakim, figliuolo di Hilkia;
21lo vestirò della tua tunica, lo ricingerò della tua cintura, rimetterò la tua autorità nelle sue mani; ed egli sarà un padre per gli abitanti di Gerusalemme e per la casa di Giuda.
22Metterò sulla sua spalla la chiave della casa di Davide: egli aprirà, e niuno chiuderà; egli chiuderà, e niuno aprirà.
23Lo pianterò come un chiodo in un luogo solido; ed egli diverrà un trono di gloria per la casa di suo padre.
24A lui sarà sospesa tutta la gloria della casa di suo padre, i suoi rampolli nobili e ignobili, tutti i vasi più piccoli, dalle coppe alle bottiglie.
25In quel giorno, dice l’Eterno degli eserciti, il chiodo piantato in luogo solido sarà tolto, sarà strappato, cadrà; e tutto ciò che v’era appeso sarà distrutto, poiché l’Eterno l’ha detto.
Reina-Valera 1909
1CARGA del valle de la visión. ¿Qué tienes ahora, que toda tú te has subido sobre los terrados?
2Tú, llena de alborotos, ciudad turbulenta, ciudad alegre; tus muertos no son muertos á cuchillo, ni muertos en guerra.
3Todos tus príncipes juntos huyeron del arco, fueron atados: todos los que en ti se hallaron, fueron atados juntamente, aunque lejos se habían huído.
4Por esto dije: Dejadme, lloraré amargamente; no os afanéis por consolarme de la destrucción de la hija de mi pueblo.
5Porque día es de alboroto, y de huella, y de fatiga por el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos en el valle de la visión, para derribar el muro, y dar grita al monte.
6Y Elam tomó aljaba en carro de hombres y de caballeros; y Chîr descubrió escudo.
7Y acaeció que tus hermosos valles fueron llenos de carros, y los de á caballo acamparon á la puerta.
8Y desnudó la cobertura de Judá; y miraste en aquel día hacia la casa de armas del bosque.
9Y visteis las roturas de la ciudad de David, que se multiplicaron; y recogisteis las aguas de la pesquera de abajo.
10Y contasteis las casas de Jerusalem, y derribasteis casas para fortificar el muro.
11E hicisteis foso entre los dos muros con las aguas de la pesquera vieja: y no tuvisteis respeto al que la hizo, ni mirasteis de lejos al que la labró.
12Por tanto el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos llamó en este día á llanto y á endechas, á mesar y á vestir saco.
13Y he aquí gozo y alegría, matando vacas y degollando ovejas, comer carne y beber vino, diciendo: Comamos y bebamos, que mañana moriremos.
14Esto fué revelado á mis oídos de parte de Jehová de los ejércitos: Que este pecado no os será perdonado hasta que muráis, dice el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos.
15Jehová de los ejércitos dice así: Ve, entra á este tesorero, á Sebna el mayordomo, y dile:
16¿Qué tienes tú aquí, ó á quién tienes tú aquí, que labraste aquí sepulcro para ti, como el que en lugar alto labra su sepultura, ó el que esculpe para sí morada en una peña?
17He aquí que Jehová te trasportará en duro cautiverio, y de cierto te cubrirá el rostro.
18Te echará á rodar con ímpetu, como á bola por tierra larga de términos: allá morirás, y allá estarán los carros de tu gloria, oh vergüenza de la casa de tu señor.
19Y arrojarte he de tu lugar, y de tu puesto te empujaré.
20Y será que, en aquel día, llamaré á mi siervo Eliacim, hijo de Hilcías;
21Y vestirélo de tus vestiduras, y le fortaleceré con tu talabarte, y entregaré en sus manos tu potestad; y será padre al morador de Jerusalem, y á la casa de Judá.
22Y pondré la llave de la casa de David sobre su hombro; y abrirá, y nadie cerrará; cerrará, y nadie abrirá.
23E hincarélo como clavo en lugar firme; y será por asiento de honra á la casa de su padre.
24Y colgarán de él toda la honra de la casa de su padre, los hijos y los nietos, todos los vasos menores, desde los vasos de beber hasta todos los instrumentos de música.
25En aquel día, dice Jehová de los ejércitos, el clavo hincado en lugar firme será quitado, y será quebrado y caerá; y la carga que sobre él se puso, se echará á perder; porque Jehová habló.
King James Version
1The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops?
2Thou that art full of stirs, a tumultuous city, a joyous city: thy slain men are not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle.
3All thy rulers are fled together, they are bound by the archers: all that are found in thee are bound together, which have fled from far.
4Therefore said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly, labour not to comfort me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people.
5For it is a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by the Lord GOD of hosts in the valley of vision, breaking down the walls, and of crying to the mountains.
6And Elam bare the quiver with chariots of men and horsemen, and Kir uncovered the shield.
7And it shall come to pass, that thy choicest valleys shall be full of chariots, and the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate.
8And he discovered the covering of Judah, and thou didst look in that day to the armour of the house of the forest.
9Ye have seen also the breaches of the city of David, that they are many: and ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
10And ye have numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses have ye broken down to fortify the wall.
11Ye made also a ditch between the two walls for the water of the old pool: but ye have not looked unto the maker thereof, neither had respect unto him that fashioned it long ago.
12And in that day did the Lord GOD of hosts call to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth:
13And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die.
14And it was revealed in mine ears by the LORD of hosts, Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord GOD of hosts.
15Thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto Shebna, which is over the house, and say,
16What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee out a sepulchre here, as he that heweth him out a sepulchre on high, and that graveth an habitation for himself in a rock?
17Behold, the LORD will carry thee away with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover thee.
18He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall be the shame of thy lord’s house.
19And I will drive thee from thy station, and from thy state shall he pull thee down.
20And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:
21And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
22And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
23And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father’s house.
24And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups, even to all the vessels of flagons.
25In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off: for the LORD hath spoken it.
World English Bible
1The burden of the valley of vision. What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops?
2You that are full of shouting, a tumultuous city, a joyous town, your slain are not slain with the sword, neither are they dead in battle.
3All your rulers fled away together. They were bound by the archers. All who were found by you were bound together. They fled far away.
4Therefore I said, “Look away from me. I will weep bitterly. Don’t labor to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
5For it is a day of confusion, and of treading down, and of perplexity from the Lord, GOD of Armies, in the valley of vision, a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains.”
6Elam carried his quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.
7Your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.
8He took away the covering of Judah; and you looked in that day to the armor in the house of the forest.
9You saw the breaches of David’s city, that they were many; and you gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
10You counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.
11You also made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you didn’t look to him who had done this, neither did you have respect for him who planned it long ago.
12In that day, the Lord, GOD of Armies, called to weeping, to mourning, to baldness, and to dressing in sackcloth;
13and behold, there is joy and gladness, killing cattle and killing sheep, eating meat and drinking wine: “Let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die.”
14The LORD of Armies revealed himself in my ears, “Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you until you die,” says the Lord, GOD of Armies.
15The Lord, GOD of Armies says, “Go, get yourself to this treasurer, even to Shebna, who is over the house, and say,
16‘What are you doing here? Who has you here, that you have dug out a tomb here?’ Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiseling a habitation for himself in the rock!”
17Behold, the LORD will overcome you and hurl you away violently. Yes, he will grasp you firmly.
18He will surely wind you around and around, and throw you like a ball into a large country. There you will die, and there the chariots of your glory will be, you disgrace of your lord’s house.
19I will thrust you from your office. You will be pulled down from your station.
20It will happen in that day that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,
21and I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with your belt. I will commit your government into his hand; and he will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
22I will lay the key of David’s house on his shoulder. He will open, and no one will shut. He will shut, and no one will open.
23I will fasten him like a nail in a sure place. He will be for a throne of glory to his father’s house.
24They will hang on him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to all the pitchers.
25“In that day,” says the LORD of Armies, “the nail that was fastened in a sure place will give way. It will be cut down and fall. The burden that was on it will be cut off, for the LORD has spoken it.”
