15 Ecco sopra i monti i piedi del messo delle buone novelle, di colui che annunzia la pace; celebra pure, o Giudea, le tue feste; adempi i tuoi voti; perciocchè gli scellerati non passeranno più per te; tutti son distrutti.


To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.

57. 29. Jerusalem is called the gate of the people (Micah 1:9).

(Thus said Jehovah against the prophets that seduce my people, Whosoever does not fondly kiss their mouth, against him they sanctify war. Therefore it shall be night unto you instead of vision, and darkness shall arise upon you instead of divining, and the sun shall set over the prophets, and the day shall grow black over them (Micah 3:5-6). The "prophets" are those who teach the things of the church.)

In the last days it shall come to pass that the mountains of the house of Jehovah shall be established in the top of the mountains, and people shall flow into it. Many nations shall come and say, Come, and we will go up to the mountain of Jehovah that He may teach us of His ways, and we may walk in His paths, for out of Zion shall go forth doctrine, and the Word of Jehovah from Jerusalem. Then they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree, none making them afraid. All peoples will walk in the name of their God, and we will walk in the name of Jehovah our God for ever and to eternity. In that day Jehovah, shall reign over them in Mount Zion from henceforth and forever. Thou hillside of the daughter of Zion, the former kingdom shall come unto thee, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem (Micah 4:1-8).

The day for building thy walls; this day the statute shall be far removed; this day when they shall come thence to thee from Assyria, to the cities of Egypt, from sea to sea, from mountain to mountain (Micah 7:11-12).
