The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Et ædificabunt deserta a sæculo, et ruinas antiquas erigent, et instaurabunt civitates desertas, dissipatas in generationem et generationem.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ οἰκοδομήσουσιν ἐρήμους αἰωνίας, ἐξηρημωμένας πρότερον ἐξαναστήσουσιν· καὶ καινιοῦσιν πόλεις ἐρήμους, ἐξηρημωμένας εἰς γενεάς.
Hebrew (WLC)
וּבָנוּ֙ חָרְב֣וֹת עוֹלָ֔ם שֹׁמְמ֥וֹת רִֽאשֹׁנִ֖ים יְקוֹמֵ֑מוּ וְחִדְּשׁוּ֙ עָ֣רֵי חֹ֔רֶב שֹׁמְמ֖וֹת דּ֥וֹר וָדֽוֹר
