< 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.
He whakaaro ki Hiona i kore ai ahau e noho hu, he whakaaro, ki Hiruharama te ata noho ai ahau, kia puta ra ano tona tika ano he tiahotanga, tona whakaoranga ano he rama e ka ana.
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.
A ka kite nga tauiwi i tou tika, nga kingi katoa i tou kororia; a he ingoa hou e whakahuatia ki a koe, he mea whakahua na te mangai o Ihowa.
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.
Hei karauna ataahua ano koe i te ringa o Ihowa, hei potae kingi i te ringa o tou Atua.
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.
E kore koe e kiia a muri ake nei, He mea whakarere; heoi ano kianga o tou whenua, He ururua; engari ka huaina koe, ko Hepetipa; tou whenua, ko Peura: no te mea ka ahuareka a Ihowa ki a koe, a ka whai tahu tou whenua.
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.
Kei te marenatanga hoki o te taitamariki ki te wahine te rite o te marenatanga o au tamariki ki a koe; kei te koa hoki o te tane marena hou ki te wahine marena hou te rite o te koa o tou Atua ki a koe.
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,
Kua oti he kaitiaki te whakarite e ahau ki ou taiepa, e Hiruharama; e kore e kopia te mangai i te ao, i te po. E nga kaiwhakahua o to Ihowa ingoa, kei ata noho,
7 And give him no rest, till he puts Jerusalem in her place to be praised in the earth.
Kaua hoki e whakamutua ta koutou ki a ia, kia whakapumautia ra ano a Hiruharama e ia, kia meinga ra ano hei whakamoemiti i runga i te whenua.
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:
Kua oatitia e Ihowa tona ringa matau, tona takakau kaha, E kore e hoatu e ahau tau witi a muri hei kai ma ou hoariri; e kore ano nga tangata ke e inu i tau waina i mauiui ai koe.
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.
Engari ko nga tangata nana i whawhaki, ma ratou e kai, whakamoemiti tonu atu ki a Ihowa; a ko nga tangata nana i kohikohi mai, ka inumia e ratou ki nga marae o toku wahi tapu.
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.
Tika atu, tika atu ma nga kuwaha; whakapaia te ara o te iwi; opehia ake, opehia ake te huanui; kohikohia atu nga kamaka; whakaarahia he kara ki nga iwi.
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.
Nana, kua korero a Ihowa ki te pito o te whenua, Mea atu ki te tamahine a Hiona, Nana, ko tou whakaoranga te haere mai nei! nana, kei a ia tona utu, kei tona aroaro ano tana mahi.
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 ka huaina ratou, Ko te iwi tapu, Ko ta Ihowa i hoko ai; ka huaina ano hoki koe, He mea i rapua, He pa kahore i mahue.
