1 OR tutta la terra era d’una favella e di un linguaggio.

2 Ed avvenne che, partendosi gli uomini di Oriente, trovarono una pianura nel paese di Sinear, e quivi si posarono.

3 E dissero l’uno all’altro: Or su, facciamo de’ mattoni, e cociamoli col fuoco. I mattoni adunque furono loro in vece di pietre, e il bitume in vece di malta.

4 Poi dissero: Or su, edifichiamoci una città, ed una torre, la cui sommità giunga fino al cielo, ed acquistiamoci fama; che talora noi non siamo dispersi sopra la faccia di tutta la terra.

5 E il Signore discese, per veder la città e la torre che i figliuoli degli uomini edificavano.

6 E il Signore disse: Ecco un medesimo popolo, ed essi tutti hanno un medesimo linguaggio, e questo è il cominciamento del lor lavoro, ed ora tutto ciò che hanno disegnato di fare, non sarà loro divietato.

7 Or su, scendiamo e confondiamo ivi la lor favella; acciocchè l’uno non intenda la favella dell’altro.

8 E il Signore li disperse di là sopra la faccia di tutta la terra; ed essi cessarono di edificar la città.

9 Perciò essa fu nominata Babilonia; perciocchè il Signore confuse quivi la favella di tutta la terra, e disperse coloro di là sopra la faccia di tutta la terra.

10 QUESTE sono le generazioni di Sem: Sem, essendo d’età di cent’anni, generò Arfacsad, due anni dopo il diluvio.

11 E Sem, dopo ch’ebbe generato Arfacsad, visse cinquecent’anni, e generò figliuoli e figliuole.

12 Ed Arfacsad, essendo vivuto trentacinque anni, generò Sela.

13 Ed Arfacsad, dopo ch’egli ebbe generato Sela, visse quattrocentotre anni, e generò figliuoli e figliuole.

14 E Sela, essendo vivuto trent’anni, generò Eber.

15 E Sela, dopo ch’ebbe generato Eber, visse quattrocentotre anni, e generò figliuoli e figliuole.

16 Ed Eber, essendo vivuto trentaquattr’anni, generò Peleg.

17 Ed Eber, dopo ch’ebbe generato Peleg, visse quattrocentrenta anni, e generò figliuoli e figliuole.

18 E Peleg, essendo vivuto trent’anni, generò Reu.

19 E Peleg, dopo ch’ebbe generato Reu, visse dugennove anni, e generò figliuoli e figliuole.

20 E Reu, essendo vivuto trentadue anni, generò Serug.

21 E Reu, dopo che ebbe generato Serug, visse dugensette anni, e generò figliuoli e figliuole.

22 E Serug, essendo vivuto trent’anni, generò Nahor.

23 E Serug, dopo che ebbe generato Nahor, visse dugent’anni, e generò figliuoli e figliuole.

24 E Nahor, essendo vivuto ventinove anni, generò Tare.

25 E Nahor, dopo ch’ebbe generato Tare, visse cendiciannove anni, e generò figliuoli e figliuole.

26 E Tare, essendo vivuto settant’anni, generò Abramo, Nahor, e Haran.

27 E queste sono le generazioni di Tare: Tare generò Abramo, Nahor e Haran; e Haran generò Lot.

28 Or Haran morì in presenza di Tare suo padre, nel suo natio paese, in Ur de’ Caldei.

29 Ed Abramo e Nahor si presero delle mogli; il nome della moglie di Abramo era Sarai; e il nome della moglie di Nahor, Milca, la quale era figliuola di Haran, padre di Milca e d’Isca.

30 Or Sarai era sterile, e non avea figliuoli.

31 E Tare prese Abramo suo figliuolo, e Lot figliuol del suo figliuolo, cioè di Haran, e Sarai sua nuora, moglie di Abramo suo figliuolo; ed essi uscirono con loro fuori d’Ur de’ Caldei, per andar nel paese di Canaan; e, giunti fino in Charan, dimorarono quivi.

32 E il tempo della vita di Tare fu dugentocinque anni; poi morì in Charan.

   


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.

1298. And they had brick for stone. That this signifies that they had falsity for truth, is evident from the signification of “brick,” just now shown to be falsity; and from the signification of “stone,” which in a wide sense is truth, concerning which above n. 643). Stones have signified truth for the reason that the boundaries of the most ancient people were marked off by stones, and that they set up stones as witnesses that the case was so and so, or that it was true; as is evident from the stone that Jacob set up for a pillar (Genesis 28:22; 35:14), and from the pillar of stones between Laban and Jacob (Genesis 31:46-47, 52), and from the altar built by the sons of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh, near the Jordan, as a witness (Joshua 22:10, 28, 34). Therefore in the Word truths are signified by “stones;” insomuch that not only by the stones of the altar, but also by the precious stones upon the shoulders of Aaron’s ephod and upon the breastplate of judgment, there were signified holy truths which are of love.

[2] As regards the altar, when the worship of sacrifices upon altars began, the altar signified the representative worship of the Lord in general; but the stones themselves represented the holy truths of that worship; and therefore it was commanded that the altar should be built of whole stones, not hewn, and it was forbidden that any iron should be moved upon them (Deuteronomy 27:5-7; Joshua 8:31); for the reason that hewn stones, and stones on which iron has been used, signified what is artificial, and thus what is fictitious in worship; that is, what is of man’s own or of the figment of his thought and heart. This was to profane worship, as is plainly said in Exodus 20:25. For the same reason iron was not used upon the stones of the temple (1 Kings 6:7).

[3] That the precious stones upon the shoulders of Aaron’s ephod, and in the breastplate of judgment, signified holy truths, has been shown before n. 114). The same is evident in Isaiah:

Behold I will make thy stones to lie in carbuncle, and I will lay thy foundation in sapphires, and will put rubies for thy suns (windows), and thy gates in gem stones, and all thy border in stones of desire; and all thy sons shall be taught of Jehovah, and great shall be the peace of thy sons (Isaiah 54:11-13).

The stones here named denote holy truths, and therefore it is said, “all thy sons shall be taught of Jehovah.” Hence it is said in John that the foundations of the wall of the city, the holy Jerusalem, were adorned with every precious stone, and the stones are named (Revelation 21:19-20). The “holy Jerusalem” denotes the kingdom of the Lord in heaven and on earth, the foundations of which are holy truths. In like manner the tables of stone, on which the commands of the Law, or the Ten Words, were written, signified holy truths; and therefore they were of stone, or their foundation [fundus] was stone, concerning which see Exodus 24:12; 31:18; 34:1; Deuteronomy 5:22; 10:1, for the commands themselves are nothing else than truths of faith.

[4] As then in ancient times truths were signified by stones, and afterwards, when worship began upon pillars and altars, and in a temple, holy truths were signified by the pillars, altars, and temple, therefore the Lord also was called “a Stone;” as in Moses:

The Mighty One of Jacob, from thence is the Shepherd, the Stone of Israel (Genesis 49:24).

In Isaiah:

Thus saith the Lord Jehovih, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a Stone, a tried Stone of the corner, of price, of a sure foundation (Isaiah 28:16).

In David:

The Stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner (Psalms 118:22).

The like is signified in Daniel by “the stone cut out of the rock,” which brake in pieces the statue of Nebuchadnezzar (Daniel 2:34-35, 45).

[5] That “stones” signify truths, is evident also in Isaiah:

By this shall the iniquity of Jacob be expiated, and this shall be all the fruit, to take away his sin; when he shall put all the stones of the altar as chalk stones that are scattered (Isaiah 27:9);

“the stones of the altar” denote truths in worship, which are dispersed. Again:

Make ye level the way of the people; flatten out, flatten ye out the path; gather out the stones (Isaiah 62:10);

“Way” and “stone” denote truths.

In Jeremiah:

I am against thee, O destroying mountain; I will roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee into a mountain of burning; and they shall not take of thee a stone for a corner, nor a stone of foundation (Jeremiah 51:25-26).

This is said of Babel; “a mountain of burning,” is the love of self. That “a stone should not be taken from it,” means that there is no truth.

Daniel 1

공부

1 In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Jerusalem, and besieged it.

2 The Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, with part of the vessels of the house of God; and he carried them into the land of Shinar to the house of his God: and he brought the vessels into the treasure house of his God.

3 The king spoke to Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring in [certain] of the children of Israel, even of the seed royal and of the nobles;

4 youths in whom was no blemish, but well-favored, and skillful in all wisdom, and endowed with knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability to stand in the king's palace; and that he should teach them the learning and the language of the Chaldeans.

5 The king appointed for them a daily portion of the king's dainties, and of the wine which he drank, and that they should be nourished three years; that at its end they should stand before the king.

6 Now among these were, of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.

7 The prince of the eunuchs gave names to them: to Daniel he gave [the name of] Belteshazzar; and to Hananiah, [of] Shadrach; and to Mishael, [of] Meshach; and to Azariah, [of] Abednego.

8 But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the king's dainties, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.

9 Now God made Daniel to find kindness and compassion in the sight of the prince of the eunuchs.

10 The prince of the eunuchs said to Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who has appointed your food and your drink: for why should he see your faces worse looking than the youths who are of your own age? so would you endanger my head with the king.

11 Then Daniel said to the steward whom the prince of the eunuchs had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:

12 Test your servants, I beg you, ten days; and let them give us vegetables to eat, and water to drink.

13 Then let our faces be looked on before you, and the face of the youths who eat of the king's dainties; and as you see, deal with your servants.

14 So he listened to them in this matter, and proved them ten days.

15 At the end of ten days their faces appeared fairer, and they were fatter in flesh, than all the youths who ate of the king's dainties.

16 So the steward took away their dainties, and the wine that they should drink, and gave them pulse.

17 Now as for these four youths, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.

18 At the end of the days which the king had appointed for bringing them in, the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.

19 The king talked with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore stood they before the king.

20 In every matter of wisdom and understanding, concerning which the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchanters who were in all his realm.

21 Daniel continued even to the first year of king Cyrus.
