Isaiah 54
1 Yahweh says, “You [people of Jerusalem] [MET], start to sing! You [who are like] [MET] women who have never given birth to children, sing loudly and shout joyfully, because you, [who are like] [MET] childless women who have been abandoned [by their husbands], will [soon] have more children than women who have never had any children.
“Çocuk doğurmayan ey kısır kadın, Sevinç çığlıkları at; Ey doğum ağrısı nedir bilmeyen sen, Sevinçle haykır, bağır. Çünkü terk edilmiş kadının, Evli kadından daha çok çocuğu olacaktır” diyor RAB.
2 Make your tents larger; make them wider, and fasten them firmly with tent pegs.
“Çadırının alanını genişlet, Perdelerini uzat, çekinme. Gergi iplerini de uzat, kazıklarını sağlamlaştır.
3 [You will need to make your city much larger] because [soon] you and your descendants will spread all over the land. They will force the people of [other] nations [who now live in your cities] to leave, and you will live [again] in those cities [that were previously abandoned].
Çünkü sağa sola yayılacaksın, Soyundan gelenler ulusları mülk edinecek, Issız kentlere yerleşecek.
4 Do not be afraid; you will no [longer] be ashamed. Previously you were ashamed [because your enemies conquered you] and caused many of your women to become widows, but [soon] you will not even remember that.
“Korkma, ayıplanmayacaksın, Utanma, aşağılanmayacaksın. Unutacaksın gençliğinde yaşadığın utancı, Dulluk ayıbını artık anmayacaksın.
5 [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, the Holy one of Israel, who rules over the whole earth, the one who created you, will be [like] [MET] a husband to you.
Çünkü kocan, seni yaratandır. O'nun adı Her Şeye Egemen RAB'dir, İsrail'in Kutsalı'dır seni kurtaran. O'na bütün dünyanın Tanrısı denir.”
6 You were like a woman whose husband left her, and caused you to be very sad; you were like a young woman who got married when she was [very] young, and then her husband abandoned her.
Tanrın diyor ki, “RAB seni terk edilmiş, Ruhu kederli bir kadın, Genç yaşta evlenip sonra dışlanmış Bir kadın olarak çağırıyor:
7 I abandoned you [people of Jerusalem] for a while, but [now] I am saying, ‘I will take you back.’
‘Bir an için seni terk ettim, Ama büyük sevecenlikle geri getireceğim.
8 I was very angry with you for a while, and I turned away from you. But I will act mercifully toward you and I will faithfully love you forever. That is what [I], Yahweh, your protector, say to you.
Bir anlık taşkın öfkeyle senden yüz çevirmiştim, Ama sonsuz sadakatle sana sevecenlik göstereceğim.’” Seni kurtaran RAB böyle diyor.
9 During the time that Noah lived, I solemnly promised that I would never again allow a flood to cover the earth. So [now] I solemnly promise that I will not be angry with you again and (rebuke you/threaten to punish you).
“Bu benim için Nuh tufanı gibidir. Nuh tufanının bir daha yeryüzünü Kaplamayacağına nasıl ant içtimse, Sana öfkelenmeyeceğime, Seni azarlamayacağıma da ant içiyorum.
10 Even if the mountains and hills shake and collapse, I will not stop faithfully loving you, and I will not cancel my agreement to cause things to go well for you. That is what [I], Yahweh, who act mercifully, say.
Dağlar yerinden kalksa, tepeler sarsılsa da Sadakatim senin üzerinden kalkmaz, Esenlik antlaşmam sarsılmaz” Diyor sana merhamet eden RAB.
11 You [people of Jerusalem] [APO], [your enemies acted very violently toward you]; [it was as though] your city was battered by a severe storm, and no one helped you. But [now] I will cause your city to be rebuilt with stones made of (turquoise/valuable stones), and I will cause the foundations of the city to be made of (sapphires/valuable blue stones).
“Ey kasırgaya tutulmuş, Avuntu bulmamış ezik kent! Taşlarını koyu harçla yerine koyacak, Temellerini laciverttaşıyla atacağım.
12 I will cause the towers on the city wall to be made of (rubies/valuable red stones), and all the gates of the city will be made of [other] very valuable stones.
Kale burçlarını yakuttan, Kapılarını mücevherden, Surlarını değerli taşlardan yapacağım.
13 I will be the one who will teach you people and cause things to go well with you.
Bütün çocuklarını ben RAB eğiteceğim, Esenlikleri tam olacak.
14 Your [government] will be strong because of acting justly/fairly; no one will (oppress you/cause you to suffer); you will not be afraid, because there will be nothing [PRS] that will (terrorize you/cause you to become extremely afraid).
Doğrulukla güçlenecek, Baskıdan uzak olacak, korkmayacaksın. Dehşet senden uzak kalacak, sana yaklaşmayacak.
15 If any army attacks you, it will not be because I have incited them to do that, and you will defeat any group that attacks you.
Sana saldıran olursa, benden olmadığını bil. Sana saldıran herkes önünde yenilgiye uğrayacak.
16 Think about this: (Blacksmiths/Men who make things from metal) fan the coals to make a very hot flame in order to produce weapons that can be used [in battles], but I am the one who has produced blacksmiths! And I am also the one who created people who destroy [other people and cities].
“İşte, kor halindeki ateşi üfleyen, Amaca uygun silah yapan demirciyi ben yarattım. Yok etsin diye yıkıcıyı da ben yarattım.
17 [But I am promising you that I will] not allow you to be defeated/injured by soldiers using weapons that have been made to attack you, and when others try to accuse you, you will (refute them/show that they are wrong). That is the reward that I will give to the people who serve me; I will defend them; that is what [I], Yahweh, promise.”
Ama sana karşı yapılan hiçbir silah işe yaramayacak, Mahkemede seni suçlayan her dili Suçlu çıkaracaksın. RAB'be kulluk edenlerin mirası şudur: Onların gönenci bendendir” diyor RAB.
