< Isaiah 62 >

1 For Zion's sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until her righteousness go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp that burns.
Propter Sion non tacebo, et propter Ierusalem non quiescam, donec egrediatur ut splendor Iustus eius, et Salvator eius ut lampas accendatur.
2 The nations shall see your righteousness, and all kings your glory, and you shall be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name.
Et videbunt Gentes Iustum tuum, et cuncti reges Inclytum tuum: et vocabitur tibi nomen novum, quod os Domini nominabit.
3 You shall also be a crown of beauty in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
Et eris corona gloriæ in manu Domini, et diadema regni in manu Dei tui.
4 And you shall no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall your land any more be termed Desolate: but you shall be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; for the LORD delights in you, and your land shall be 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 just as a young man marries a virgin, so your sons shall marry you; and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so your God will rejoice 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 I have set watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; they shall never be silent, day or night. You who call on the LORD, take no rest,
Super muros tuos Ierusalem constitui custodes, tota die, et tota nocte in perpetuum non tacebunt. Qui reminiscimini Domini, ne taceatis,
7 and give him no rest 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 The LORD has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, "Surely I will no more give your grain to be food for your enemies; and foreigners shall not 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 but those who have garnered it shall eat it, and praise the LORD; and those who have gathered it shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary."
Quia qui congregant illud, comedent, et laudabunt Dominum: et qui comportant illud, bibent in atriis sanctis meis.
10 Go through the gates, prepare the way of the people. Build up, build up the highway. Gather out the stones. Lift up a banner for the peoples.
Transite, transite per portas, præparate viam populo, planum facite iter, eligite lapides, et elevate signum ad Populos.
11 Look, the LORD has proclaimed to the remotest part of earth, "Say to the daughter of Zion, 'Look, your salvation comes. Look, his reward is with him, and his recompense 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 They shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and you shall be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.
Et vocabunt eos, Populus sanctus, redempti a Domino. Tu autem vocaberis: Quæsita civitas, et non Derelicta.
