< 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.
Propter Sion non tacebo, et propter Ierusalem non quiescam, donec egrediatur ut splendor iustus eius, et salvator eius ut lampas accendatur.
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.
Et videbunt Gentes iustum tuum, et cuncti reges inclytum tuum: et vocabitur tibi nomen novum, quod os Domini nominabit.
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,
Et eris corona gloriæ in manu Domini, et diadema regni in manu Dei tui.
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.
Non vocaberis ultra Derelicta: et terra tua non vocabitur amplius Desolata: sed vocaberis Voluntas mea in ea, et terra tua inhabitata. quia complacuit Domino in te: et terra tua inhabitabitur.
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.
Habitabit enim iuvenis cum virgine, et habitabunt in te filii tui. Et gaudebit sponsus super sponsam, et gaudebit super te Deus tuus.
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,
Super muros tuos Ierusalem constitui custodes, tota die, et tota nocte in perpetuum non tacebunt. Qui reminiscimini Domini, ne taceatis,
7 And do not give silence to Him, Until He establishes, and until He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
et ne detis silentium ei, donec stabiliat, et donec ponat Ierusalem laudem in terra.
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.
Iuravit Dominus in dextera sua, et in brachio fortitudinis suæ: Si dedero triticum tuum ultra cibum inimicis tuis: et si biberint filii alieni vinum tuum, in quo laborasti.
9 For those gathering it eat it, and have praised YHWH, And those collecting it drink it in My holy courts.”
Quia qui congregant illud, comedent, et laudabunt Dominum: et qui comportant illud, bibent in atriis sanctis meis.
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.
Transite, transite per portas, præparate viam populo, planum facite iter, eligite lapides, et elevate signum ad Populos.
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.”
Ecce Dominus auditum fecit in extremis terræ, dicite filiæ Sion: Ecce Salvator tuus venit: ecce merces eius cum eo, et opus eius coram illo.
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!”
Et vocabunt eos, Populus sanctus, redempti a Domino. Tu autem vocaberis: Quæsita civitas, et non Derelicta.
