Isaiah 62
1 For Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp [that] burneth.
Le Zion ta la, nyemazi ɖoɖoe o, le Yerusalem ta la, nyemazi kpi o, va se ɖe esime eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye naklẽ abe kekeli ene, eye eƒe ɖeɖe nabi abe akakati ene.
2 And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name.
Dukɔwo akpɔ wò dzɔdzɔenyenye, eye fiawo akpɔ wò ŋutikɔkɔe. Woayɔ ŋkɔ yeye si Yehowa ƒe nu atsɔ na wò la na wò.
3 Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
Ànye atsyɔ̃kuku le Yehowa ƒe asi me kple fiakuku le wò Mawu ƒe asi me.
4 Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzi-bah, and thy land Beulah: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married.
Womagayɔ wò azɔ be Wogbe nu le egbɔ, alo ayɔ wò anyigba be Gbegbe o. Ke boŋ woayɔ wò be, Hefziba si gɔmee nye Eƒe nu nyo ŋunye, eye woayɔ wò anyigba be Biula, si gɔmee nye eɖe srɔ̃, elabena wò nu anyo Yehowa ŋu, eye wòaɖe wò anyigba abe srɔ̃ ene.
5 For [as] a young man marrieth a virgin, [so] shall thy sons marry thee: and [as] the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, [so] shall thy God rejoice over thee.
Abe ale si ɖekakpui ɖea ɖetugbii ene la, nenema ke viwò ŋutsuwo aɖe wòe, eye abe ale si ŋugbetɔsrɔ̃ kpɔa dzidzɔe ɖe eƒe ŋugbetɔ ŋu ene la, nenemae wò Mawu akpɔ dzidzɔ ɖe ŋuwòe.
6 I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, [which] shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence,
O! Yerusalem, meɖo gbetakpɔlawo wò gliwo dzi. Womazi ɖoɖoe le ŋkeke me alo zã me o. Mi ame siwo yɔa Yehowa, migagbɔ ɖe eme o,
7 And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
eye migana gbɔdzɔe o, va se ɖe esime wòaɖo Yerusalem te, awɔe wòanye kafukafunu le anyigba dzi.
8 The LORD hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more give thy corn [to be] meat for thine enemies; and the sons of the stranger shall not drink thy wine, for the which thou hast laboured:
Yehowa ta eƒe ɖusibɔ kple eƒe alɔ sesẽ la be, “Nyemagatsɔ wò bli ana wò futɔwo wòanye nuɖuɖu na wo gbeɖe o, eye wain yeye si ŋuti nèku kutri ɖo la, nyemagana amedzrowo naxɔe ano o.
9 But they that have gathered it shall eat it, and praise the LORD; and they that have brought it together shall drink it in the courts of my holiness.
Ke ame siwo xa nukuawo la, woaɖu wo, akafu Yehowa, eye ame siwo gbe waintsetseawo la, ano wo me ha le nye xɔxɔnu kɔkɔewo.”
10 Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people.
Mito eme yi, mito agboawo me yi! Midzra mɔ ɖo na dukɔ la. Mido mɔ, mido mɔtatawo. Miɖe kpewo ɖa le mɔa dzi. Mikɔ aflaga dzi na dukɔwo.
11 Behold, the LORD hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward [is] with him, and his work before him.
Yehowa na woɖe gbeƒãe le anyigba ƒe mlɔenuwo ke be, “Migblɔ na Zion vinyɔnu la be, ‘Kpɔ ɖa, wò Ɖela gbɔna! Kpɔ ɖa, eƒe fetu kple eƒe teƒeɖoɖo kpe ɖe eŋuti.’”
12 And they shall call them, The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and thou shalt be called, Sought out, A city not forsaken.
Woayɔ wo be, “Ame kɔkɔewo. Yehowa ƒe Ame siwo wòɖe.” Ke wò la, woayɔ wò be, “Ame si dim wole vevie,” eye woayɔ wò be, “Du si gbɔ womagagbe nu le o.”
