- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Suscitavi ab aquilone, et veniet ab ortu solis : vocabit nomen meum, et adducet magistratus quasi lutum, et velut plastes conculcans humum.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- ἐγὼ δὲ ἤγειρα τὸν ἀπὸ βορρᾶ καὶ τὸν ἀφ᾽ ἡλίου ἀνατολῶν, κληθήσονται τῷ ὀνόματί μου· ἐρχέσθωσαν ἄρχοντες, καὶ ὡς πηλὸς κεραμέως καὶ ὡς κεραμεὺς καταπατῶν τὸν πηλόν, οὕτως καταπατηθήσεσθε.
- Hebrew (WLC)
- הַעִיר֤וֹתִי מִצָּפוֹן֙ וַיַּ֔את מִמִּזְרַח שֶׁ֖מֶשׁ יִקְרָ֣א בִשְׁמִ֑י וְיָבֹ֤א סְגָנִים֙ כְּמוֹ חֹ֔מֶר וּכְמ֥וֹ יוֹצֵ֖ר יִרְמָס טִֽיט
Haydock's commentary
Sun. Cyrus had a Persian for his father, and a Mede for his mother; thus uniting both nations, (Calmet) so that he was styled a mule by an ancient oracle. (Eusebius, præp. ix. 41.)
These countries lay to the north-east of Judea. (Calmet)
