9 Così ha detto il Signore: Per tre misfatti di Tiro, nè per quattro, io non gli renderò la sua retribuzione; ma, perciocchè hanno messo il mio popolo in man di Edom, in cattività intiera; e non si son ricordati del patto fraterno.


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.
