< Isaiah 62 >

1 For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not be still, until her righteousness go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a torch that burneth.
Jan m' renmen mòn Siyon sa a! Se pou m' pale. Jan m' renmen lavil Jerizalèm sa a, mwen p'ap pran kanpo, jouk delivrans li va parèt tankou limyè solèy k'ap leve, tankou flanbo k'ap klere nan fènwa.
2 And the nations shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory; and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of Jehovah will name.
Jerizalèm, tout nasyon yo va wè delivrans ou. Tout wa yo pral wè pouvwa ou. Y'a ba ou yon lòt non, non Seyè a menm va chwazi pou ou a.
3 And thou shalt be a crown of beauty in the hand of Jehovah, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
W'a tankou yon bèl kouwòn nan men Seyè a, tankou yon bèl foula nan men Bondye ou la.
4 Thou shalt no more be termed, Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed, Desolate: but thou shalt be called, My delight is in her, and thy land, Married; for Jehovah delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married.
Yo p'ap rele ou ti mepriz ankò. Yo p'ap konsidere peyi ou la tankou yon madanm mari l' kite l'. Y'a rele ou Kè kontan pou Bondye. Y'a rele peyi ou la Bèl madan marye. Paske ou fè Seyè a plezi, l'ap tankou yon mari pou peyi ou la.
5 For [as] a young man marrieth a virgin, shall thy sons marry thee; and with the joy of the bridegroom over the bride, shall thy God rejoice over thee.
Menm jan yon jenn gason marye ak yon jenn fi, Seyè a pral marye avè ou. Menm jan yon nonm marye kontan madanm li, Bondye ou la pral kontan ou
6 I have set watchmen upon thy walls, Jerusalem; all the day and all the night they shall never hold their peace: ye that put Jehovah in remembrance, keep not silence,
Jerizalèm, mwen mete gad ap fè pòs sou miray ou yo. Lajounen kou lannwit, se pou yo pale. Se pou yo fè Seyè a chonje pwomès li te fè ou yo, pou li pa janm bliye ou.
7 and give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
Se pou yo kenbe l' kout jouk l'a fè lavil Jerizalèm kanpe ankò, pou toupatou sou latè y'a fè lwanj pou li.
8 Jehovah hath sworn by his right hand and by the arm of his strength, I will indeed no more give thy corn [to be] food for thine enemies; and the sons of the alien shall not drink thy new wine, for which thou hast laboured;
Seyè a fè sèman, l'ap kenbe l' avèk fòs ponyèt li. -Mwen p'ap lage farin ble nou an nan men lènmi nou yo pou yo manje l'. Mwen p'ap kite moun lòt nasyon yo bwè diven nou te fatige kò nou fè ak kouraj nou.
9 for they that have garnered it shall eat it, and praise Jehovah; and they that have gathered it shall drink it in the courts of my holiness.
Men, nou menm ki te ranmase rekòt grenn yo, se nou ki va manje yo, lèfini n'a fè lwanj Seyè a. Se nou menm ki va bwè diven nan lakou kay ki apa pou Bondye a.
10 Go through, go through the gates; prepare the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a banner for the peoples.
Nou menm moun lavil Jerizalèm, pase nan pòtay la, soti nan lavil la. Al pare wout la pou pèp la tounen. Ranbleye! Wete wòch sou tout wout la! Leve drapo a, fè tout nasyon yo siyon!
11 Behold, Jehovah hath proclaimed unto the end of the earth, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompence before him.
Seyè a pral fè tout latè a konnen nouvèl la: -Di moun lavil ki sou mòn Siyon an: Men moun ki delivre nou an ap vini. L'ap mennen moun li sove yo avè l'. Y'ap mache devan l'. Se rekonpans li, se rezilta travay li.
12 And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of Jehovah; and thou shalt be called, The sought out, The city not forsaken.
Y'a rele nou pèp ki apa pou Bondye a, pèp Bondye delivre a. Y'a rele lavil Jerizalèm lavil Bondye renmen an, lavil Bondye p'ap janm lage a.
