< Isaiah 62 >

1 Because of Zion I will not keep quiet, and because of Jerusalem I will take no rest, till her righteousness goes out like the shining of the sun, and her salvation like a burning light.
Nʼihi Zayọn agaghị m emechi ọnụ, nʼihi Jerusalem agaghị m anọ jii, ruo mgbe ezi omume ya ga-enwuwa dịka ihe ụtụtụ; mgbe nzọpụta ya kwa ga-enwukwa dịka ọwaọkụ na-enwu enwu.
2 And the nations will see your righteousness, and all kings your glory: and you will have a new name, given by the mouth of the Lord.
Mba niile ga-ahụ ezi omume gị. Ndị eze niile ga-ahụkwa ebube gị. A ga-akpọkwa gị aha ọhụrụ ahụ nke ọnụ Onyenwe anyị ga-agụ gị.
3 And you will be a fair crown in the hand of the Lord, and a king's head-dress in the hand of your God.
Ị ga-aghọ okpueze nke ịma mma nʼaka Onyenwe anyị, ihe iyi nʼisi nke ndị ụlọeze nʼaka Chineke gị.
4 You will not now be named, She who is given up; and your land will no longer be named, The waste land: but you will have the name, My pleasure is in her, and your land will be named, Married: for the Lord has pleasure in you, and your land will be married.
A gakwaghị akpọ gị onye ahapụrụ ahapụ, maọbụ kpọọ ala gị ala tọgbọrọ nʼefu. Ma a ga-akpọ gị Hefziba, kpọkwa ala gị Beula, nʼihi na ihe gị ga-atọ Onyenwe anyị ụtọ, a ga-alụkwa ala gị dịka nwunye.
5 For as a young man takes a virgin for his wife, so will your maker be married to you: and as a husband has joy in his bride, so will the Lord your God be glad over you.
Dịka nwokorobịa si alụrụ nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke, otu a ka Onye na-ewu gị ga-alụ gị, dịka onye lụrụ nwunye ọhụrụ sị aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼebe nwunye ọhụrụ ya nọ, otu a ka Chineke gị ga-aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼihi gị.
6 I have put watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they will not keep quiet day or night: you who are the Lord's recorders, take no rest,
Enyela m ndị nche ọnọdụ ọrụ nʼelu mgbidi gị niile, Jerusalem. Ha agaghị edebe ọnụ ha duu mgbe ọbụla, ma ehihie ma abalị. Unu ndị na-akpọku Onyenwe anyị, unu enyela onwe unu izuike.
7 And give him no rest, till he puts Jerusalem in her place to be praised in the earth.
Unu enyekwala ya izuike tutu ruo mgbe ọ ga-eme ka Jerusalem guzosie ike, meekwa ya otuto nke ụwa niile.
8 The Lord has taken an oath by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Truly, I will no longer give your grain to be food for your haters; and men of strange countries will not take the wine for which your work has been done:
Onyenwe anyị ewerela aka nri ya werekwa ogwe aka ya ṅụọ iyi sị, “Ọ dịghịkwa mgbe m ga-enye mkpụrụ ubi gị ka ọ bụrụ nri nye ndị iro gị ọzọ, ọ dịghịkwa mgbe ndị ọbịa ga-aṅụkwa mmanya ọhụrụ ahụ bụ nke ị dọgburu onwe gị nʼọrụ nʼihi ya.
9 But those who have got in the grain will have it for their food, and will give praise to the Lord; and those who have got in the grapes will take the wine of them in the open places of my holy house.
Ma ndị were ya ka ihe ubi ga-eri ya, tookwa Onyenwe anyị, ndị kpokọtara oroma grepu ga-aṅụ ya nʼime ogige ebe nsọ m.”
10 Go through, go through the doors; make ready the way of the people; let the highway be lifted up; let the stones be taken away; let a flag be lifted up over the peoples.
Gabiganụ! Gabiganụ sitenụ nʼọnụ ụzọ ama niile. Dozienụ ụzọ maka ndị m. Wuzienụ ụzọ niile, wuzienụ okporoụzọ niile. Bupụsịanụ nkume niile, weliekwanụ ọkọlọtọ maka mba niile.
11 The Lord has sent out word to the end of the earth, Say to the daughter of Zion, See, your saviour comes; those whom he has made free are with him, and those to whom he has given salvation go before him.
Onyenwe anyị ekwusaala okwu nye nsọtụ niile nke ụwa sị, “Gwanụ Ada Zayọn, ‘Lee Onye Nzọpụta gị na-abịa! Lee, ụgwọ ọrụ ya dị ya nʼaka, nkwụghachi nke ọ ga-akwụghachi sokwa ya na-abịa.’”
12 And they will be named, The holy people, Those whose cause has been taken up by the Lord: and you will be named, Desired, A town not given up.
A ga-akpọ ha Ndị Nsọ, ndị Onyenwe anyị gbapụtara; a ga-akpọkwa unu ndị a na-achọsi ike, Obodo a na-agbakụtaghị azụ.
