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.

為了熙雍我決不緘默，為了耶路撒冷我決不休息，直到她的正義顯現有如光明，她的救恩燃灼有如火炬。

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.

萬民都要見到你的正義，眾王都要看見你的榮耀；人要給你起一個新的名號，是上主親口所指定的。

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.

你將是上主手中的榮冠，是你天主掌中的王冕。

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.

你不再稱為「被遺棄的，」你的地域也不再稱為「荒涼的；」因為你要稱為「我可愛的，」你的地域要稱為「已婚的，」因為上主喜愛你，你的地域將要婚嫁。

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.

就如青年怎樣娶處女，你的建造者也要怎樣娶你；新郎怎樣喜愛新娘，你的天主也要怎樣喜愛你。

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,

耶路撒冷啊！我在你的城牆上派了守望者，他們日夜總不緘默；提醒上主的人哪！ 你們總不要休息！

7 and give him no rest until he establishes and until he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

你們也不要讓他休息，直到他建立了熙雍，直到他使耶路撒冷在大地成為可讚美的。

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:

上主憑他的右手和他強有力的手臂發誓說：「我決不再將你的五穀交給你的仇人吃，也決不再讓外邦人喝你所勞作的美酒。

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."

惟有那收割的能吃，並頌揚上主；那收集的，將在我聖殿的庭院裏喝。」

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.

過去！經過大門罷！修平人民的路！修路！把路修好，除去上面的石頭；你們要為萬民豎起一面旗幟。

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.'"

看哪！上主向大地四極宣佈說：你們應向熙雍女子說：看！你的救主來了！看！他的勝利品與他同在，他獲得的酬勞在他面前。

12 They shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and you shall be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.

人要稱他們為「聖潔的民族，」「上主贖回的。」你要被稱為「蒙愛的，」「不被棄的城。」
