Isaiah 62
1 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not keep still, until her righteousness shines like a bright light, her salvation like a blazing torch.
Sionu za ljubav neću šutjeti, Jeruzalema radi neću mirovati dok pravda njegova ne zasine k'o svjetlost, dok njegovo spasenje ne plane k'o zublja.
2 Nations will see your righteousness, and all kings your glory. You will be called by a new name that the mouth of the LORD will bestow.
I puci će vidjet' tvoju pravednost, i tvoju slavu svi kraljevi; prozvat će te novim imenom što će ga odrediti usta Jahvina.
3 You will be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, a royal diadem in the palm of your God.
U Jahvinoj ćeš ruci biti kruna divna i kraljevski vijenac na dlanu Boga svog.
4 No longer will you be called Forsaken, nor your land named Desolate; but you will be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; for the LORD will take delight in you, and your land will be His bride.
Neće te više zvati Ostavljenom ni zemlju tvoju Opustošenom, nego će te zvati Moja milina, a zemlju tvoju Udata, jer ti si milje Jahvino i zemlja će tvoja imat' supruga.
5 For as a young man marries a young woman, so your sons will marry you; and as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so your God will rejoice over you.
Kao što se mladić ženi djevicom, tvoj će se graditelj tobom oženiti; i kao što se ženik raduje nevjesti, tvoj će se Bog tebi radovati.
6 On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have posted watchmen; they will never be silent day or night. You who call on the LORD shall take no rest for yourselves,
Na zidine tvoje, Jeruzaleme, stražare sam postavio: ni danju ni noću ne smiju zašutjeti. O, vi koji podsjećate Jahvu, vama nema počinka!
7 nor give Him any rest until He establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth.
I ne dajte mu mira dok ne obnovi Jeruzalem, dok ga opet slavom na zemlji ne učini.
8 The LORD has sworn by His right hand and by His mighty arm: “Never again will I give your grain to your enemies for food, nor will foreigners drink the new wine for which you have toiled.
Zakle se Gospod desnicom i mišicom svojom snažnom: “Neću više dati žita tvoga za hranu neprijateljima. Neće više tuđinci piti tvoga vina o kojem si teško radio.
9 For those who harvest grain will eat it and praise the LORD, and those who gather grapes will drink the wine in My holy courts.”
Neka ga jedu oni koji su ga želi i neka hvale Jahvu, neka ga piju oni što su ga trgali u predvorju mojega Svetišta!”
10 Go out, go out through the gates; prepare the way for the people! Build it up, build up the highway; clear away the stones; raise a banner for the nations!
Prođite, prođite kroz vrata, poravnajte put narodu! Nasipajte, nasipajte cestu, uklonite s nje kamenje. Podignite stijeg narodima!
11 Behold, the LORD has proclaimed to the ends of the earth, “Say to Daughter Zion: See, your Savior comes! Look, His reward is with Him, and His recompense goes before Him.”
Evo, Jahve oglasuje do nakraj zemlje: “Recite kćeri sionskoj: Evo, dolazi tvoj spasitelj. Evo, s njim naplata njegova i njegova nagrada ispred njega!
12 And they will be called the Holy People, the Redeemed of The LORD; and you will be called Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken.
Oni će se zvati 'Sveti narod', 'Otkupljenici Jahvini'. A tebe će zvati 'Traženi' - 'Grad neostavljeni'.”
