< Isaiah 62 >
1 For Zion’s sake I am not silent, And for Jerusalem’s sake I do not rest, Until her righteousness goes out as brightness, And her salvation burns as a torch.
Pou koz Sion, Mwen p ap rete an silans e pou koz Jérusalem, Mwen p ap rete san pawòl, jiskaske ladwati li vin parèt tankou gran limyè e sali li tankou yon tòch k ap brile.
2 And nations have seen your righteousness, And all kings your glory, And He is giving a new name to you, That the mouth of YHWH defines.
Nasyon yo va wè ladwati ou e tout wa yo glwa ou. Konsa, ou va rele pa yon non nouvo ke bouch SENYÈ a va bay.
3 And you have been a crown of beauty in the hand of YHWH, And a turban of royalty in the hand of your God,
Anplis, ou va yon kouwòn byen bèl nan men SENYÈ a, e yon dyadèm wayal nan men Bondye ou a.
4 It is not said of you anymore, “Forsaken!” And of your land it is not said anymore, “Desolate,” For to you is cried, “My delight [is] in her,” And to your land, “Married,” For YHWH has delighted in you, And your land is married.
Sa p ap di a ou menm ankò: “Abandone”, ni a peyi ou, yo p ap di ankò: “Dezole”; men ou va rele: “Plezi Mwen nan li”, epi peyi ou: “Marye”. Paske SENYÈ a pran plezi nan ou e a Li menm, peyi ou va marye.
5 For a young man marries a virgin, Your builders marry you, With the joy of a bridegroom over a bride, Your God rejoices over you.
Paske menm jan ke yon jennonm marye ak yon vyèj, konsa fis ou yo va marye avèk ou; epi menm jan jennonm maryaj la ap rejwi ak jenn fi maryaj la, konsa Bondye ou a va rejwi ak ou.
6 “On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen, All the day and all the night, Continually, they are not silent.” O you remembering YHWH, do not keep silence for yourselves,
Sou miray ou yo, O Jérusalem, Mwen te plase gadyen yo. Tout lajounen ak tout lannwit, yo p ap janm rete an silans. Nou menm ki raple SENYÈ a, pa pran repo pou tèt nou;
7 And do not give silence to Him, Until He establishes, and until He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
ni pa bay Li repo jiskaske Li etabli e fè Jérusalem yon lwanj sou tout tè a.
8 YHWH has sworn by His right hand, Even by the arm of His strength: “I do not give your grain anymore [as] food for your enemies, Nor do sons of a stranger drink your new wine, For which you have labored.
SENYÈ a te sèmante pa men dwat Li e pa men pwisan Li: “Mwen p ap janm bay sereyal pa ou ankò kon manje pou lènmi ou yo; ni etranje yo p ap janm bwè diven nèf pou sila ou te depanse fòs ou a.”
9 For those gathering it eat it, and have praised YHWH, And those collecting it drink it in My holy courts.”
Men sila ki ranmase li, se yo k ap manje li e louwe SENYÈ a. Sila ki rekòlte li yo va bwè li nan lakou sanktiyè pa Mwen an.
10 Pass on, pass on through the gates, Prepare the way of the people, Raise up, raise up the highway, clear it from stones, Lift up an ensign over the peoples.
Antre ladann, antre nan pòtay yo! Netwaye chemen an pou pèp la! Bati, bati chemen an! Retire wòch yo, leve yon drapo sou nasyon yo.
11 Behold, YHWH has proclaimed to the end of the earth: “Say to the daughter of Zion, Behold, your salvation has come, Behold, His hire [is] with Him, And His wage before Him.”
Gade byen, SENYÈ a te pwoklame a pwent tè a: “Di a fi Sion an: ‘Men sali ou a rive! Gade byen rekonpans Li avè L e rekonpans Li devan L!’”
12 And they have cried to them, “The People of the Holy One! The Redeemed of YHWH!” Indeed, to you is called, “The sought out one, a city not forsaken!”
Konsa, yo va rele yo: “Pèp sen an, rachte a SENYÈ yo”. Ou va rele: “Sila Ki Chache e ki vin twouve a, Yon Vil Ki Pa Abandone.”
