< Isaiah 62 >
1 For Zion’s sake I will not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until her righteousness shines out like the dawn, and her salvation like a burning lamp.
Zaradi Siona ne bom molčal in zaradi Jeruzalema ne bom počival, dokler njegova pravičnost ne gre naprej kakor sijaj in njegova rešitev duš kakor svetilka, ki gori.
2 The nations will see your righteousness, and all kings your glory. You will be called by a new name, which the LORD’s mouth will name.
Pogani bodo videli tvojo pravičnost in vsi kralji tvojo slavo in imenovana boš z novim imenom, ki ga bodo poimenovala Gospodova usta.
3 You will also be a crown of beauty in the LORD’s hand, and a royal diadem in your God’s hand.
Krona slave boš v Gospodovi roki in kraljevski diadem v roki svojega Boga.
4 You will not be called Forsaken any more, nor will your land be called Desolate any more; but you will be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; for the LORD delights in you, and your land will be married.
Ne boš več imenovana Zapuščena niti ne bo tvoja dežela imenovana Opustošena, temveč se boš imenovala Hefziba in tvoja dežela Beula. Kajti Gospod se razveseljuje v tebi in tvoja dežela bo omožena.
5 For as a young man marries a virgin, so your sons will marry you. As a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so your God will rejoice over you.
Kajti kakor mladenič poroči devico, tako se bodo tvoji sinovi poročili s teboj in kakor se ženin razveseljuje nad nevesto, tako se bo tvoj Bog veselil nad teboj.
6 I have set watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem. They will never be silent day nor night. You who call on the LORD, take no rest,
Postavil sem stražarje na tvoja obzidja, oh Jeruzalem, ki niti podnevi niti ponoči ne bodo nikoli mirovali. Vi, ki omenjate Gospoda, ne molčite
7 and give him no rest until he establishes, and until he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
in njemu ne dajajte nobenega počitka, dokler ne osnuje in dokler ne naredi [prestolnice] Jeruzalem [za] hvalo na zemlji.
8 The LORD has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, “Surely I will no more give your grain to be food for your enemies, and foreigners will not drink your new wine, for which you have labored,
Gospod je prisegel pri svoji desnici in pri laktu svoje moči: »Zagotovo ne bom več dajal tvojega žita, da bi bil hrana tvojim sovražnikom in sinovi tujca ne bo pili tvojega vina, za katerega si se trudila,
9 but those who have harvested it will eat it, and praise the LORD. Those who have gathered it will drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.”
temveč tisti, ki so ga nabrali, ga bodo jedli in hvalili Gospoda in tisti, ki so ga zbrali skupaj, ga bodo pili na dvorih moje svetosti.
10 Go through, go through the gates! Prepare the way of the people! Build up, build up the highway! Gather out the stones! Lift up a banner for the peoples.
Pojdite skozi, pojdite skozi velika vrata, pripravite pot ljudstvu, nasujte, nasujte glavno cesto, poberite kamne, dvignite prapor za ljudstvo.
11 Behold, the LORD has proclaimed to the end of the earth: “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, your salvation comes! Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him!’”
Glejte, Gospod je razglasil do konca sveta: »Sionski hčeri recite: ›Glej tvoja rešitev duš prihaja, glej, njegova nagrada je z njim in njegovo delo pred njim.‹«
12 They will call them “The Holy People, The LORD’s Redeemed”. You will be called “Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken”.
Klicali jih bodo Sveto ljudstvo, Odkupljeni od Gospoda in ti boš imenovana ›Poiskana, ‹ ›Mesto, ki ni zapuščeno.‹
