< Isaiah 60 >
1 [You people of] Jerusalem [PRS], stand up! Yahweh has done glorious things for you, and he has acted powerfully for you; so show others that he is very great!
Levanta-te! Brilha! Porque já chegou a tua luz; e a glória do SENHOR já está raiando sobre ti.
2 [But spiritual] darkness has covered [all the other people-groups on] the earth, complete darkness, but Yahweh will show you how great he is, and other people will also see it.
Porque eis que as trevas cobrirão a terra, e a escuridão aos povos; porém sobre ti o SENHOR virá raiando, e sua glória será vista sobre ti.
3 By seeing what he has done for you, [people of all] people-groups will see that he is very great, and kings will come to see the wonderful things that have happened to you.
E as nações virão à tua luz, e os reis ao brilho que raiou a ti.
4 [Yahweh says], “Look around and you will see the people who will be returning from (exile/countries to which they have been forced to go)! Your sons will come from distant countries; others will carry your [little] daughters home.
Levanta teus olhos ao redor, e vê; todos estes se ajuntaram, [e] vem a ti; teus filhos virão de longe, e tuas filhas serão criadas ao teu lado.
5 When you look at this happening, you will be very joyful [DOU], because people will bring valuable goods to you [from all around the world]. They will bring in ships valuable things from [many] nations.
Então verás, e te alegrarás; teu coração palpitará e se encherá de alegria, porque a abundância do mar a ti se voltará, as riquezas das nações a ti chegarão.
6 People will [also] bring valuable goods to you on herds/caravans of camels: Camels from the Midian and Ephah [areas of northern Arabia]. And from Sheba [in southern Arabia] they will come, bringing gold and frankincense; they will all come to praise [me], Yahweh.
Multidão de camelos te cobrirá; dromedários de Midiã e Efá, todos virão de Sabá; trarão ouro e incenso, e declararão louvores ao SENHOR.
7 They will bring flocks [of sheep and goats] from Kedar [in northern Arabia and give them] to you. [They will bring] [PRS] rams from Nebaioth for you [to sacrifice] on my altars, and I will accept them [happily]. [At that time] I will cause my temple to be very beautifully decorated.
Todas as ovelhas de Quedar se ajuntarão a ti; os carneiros de Nebaiote te servirão; com agrado subirão ao meu altar, e eu glorificarei a casa de minha glória.
8 And what are those things that are moving swiftly like [SIM] clouds? They resemble [SIM] doves [returning] to their nests.
Quem são estes que vêm voando como nuvens, e como pombas às suas janelas?
9 But they are really ships from Tarshish that are bringing your people back here. When your people come, they will bring with them [all] the valuable possessions that they have acquired, and [they will do that] to honor [me], Yahweh, your God, the Holy One of Israel, because I will have greatly honored you.
Pois as ilhas me esperarão, e primeiro os navios de Társis, para trazer teus filhos de longe, sua prata e seu ouro com eles; para o nome do SENHOR teu Deus, e para o Santo de Israel, porque ele te glorificou.
10 Foreigners will [come and] rebuild the walls of your [cities], and their kings will serve/help you. Although I punished you because I was angry with you, these things will happen now because I will act mercifully toward you because I am kind.
E filhos de estrangeiros edificarão teus muros, e seus reis te servirão; porque em minha ira eu te feri, porém em meu favor tive misericórdia de ti.
11 The gates of your [cities] will be open during the day and [also] during the night, in order that people will be able to bring into your cities valuable things from [many] countries, with their kings being led to you in the processions.
E tuas portas estarão continuamente abertas, nem de dia nem de noite se fecharão; para que tragam a ti as riquezas das nações, e seus reis [a ti] sejam trazidos.
12 And the kingdoms and nations whose [people] refuse to allow you to rule them will be completely destroyed [DOU].
Pois a nação e reino que não te servirem perecerão; e tais nações serão assoladas por completo.
13 The glorious/beautiful things in Lebanon will be brought to you— [lumber from] cypress [trees] and fir [trees] and pine [trees]— to be used to make my temple beautiful. When that is done, my temple [MTY] will [truly] be glorious!
A glória do Líbano virá a ti, a faia, o pinheiro, e o cipreste juntamente, para ornamentarem o lugar do meu santuário, e glorificarei o lugar de meus pés.
14 The descendants of those who (oppressed you/treated you cruelly) will come and bow down to you; those who despised you will prostrate themselves in front of your feet. They will say that your city on Zion Hill is the City of Yahweh, where the Holy One of Israel lives.
Também virão a ti inclinados os filhos dos que te oprimiram, e se prostrarão às pisadas de teus pés todos os que blasfemaram de ti; e te chamarão a cidade do SENHOR, a Sião do Santo de Israel.
15 Previously everyone hated you and ignored you, but now your [city] will be majestic/honored forever; and [I will cause you to be] joyful forever.
Em vez de abandonada e odiada, [de tal modo] que ninguém passava [por ti], eu farei de ti uma excelência eterna, alegria de geração após geração.
16 People of all nations and their kings will gladly bring [MET] their wealth to you. And [when that happens], you will realize that I truly am Yahweh, the one who saves you and rescues you [from your enemies], and that I am the mighty one to whom you Israeli people belong.
E mamarás o leite das nações, e mamarás os peitos dos reis; e saberás que eu sou o SENHOR, teu Salvador e teu Redentor, o Poderoso de Jacó.
17 Instead of [metals that are not valuable, like] bronze and iron, I will bring to you silver and gold. Instead of wood and stones, I will bring you bronze and iron [for your buildings]. There will be peace in your country, and your rulers will do what is fair/just.
Em vez de bronze trarei ouro, e em vez de ferro trarei prata, e em vez de madeira bronze, e em vez de pedras ferro; e farei pacíficos teus oficiais, e justos aqueles que cobram de ti.
18 People in your country will no longer act violently, and people will no longer destroy your land and cause it to become desolate/ruined. The people in the city will be safe, and everyone there will praise me [MTY].
Nunca mais se ouvirá falar de violência em tua terra; [nem] ruína, nem destruição dentro de tuas fronteiras; em vez disso, a teus muros chamarás Salvação, e a tuas portas Louvor.
19 And you will no longer need the sun and moon to give you light, because [I], Yahweh, will give you more light [than the sun and moon]; I will be a glorious light for you forever.
Nunca mais o sol te servirá para luz do dia, nem com [seu] brilho a lua te iluminará; mas o SENHOR será tua luz eterna, e teu Deus o teu ornamento.
20 [It will seem as though] the sun and moon will always be shining [LIT], because [I], Yahweh, will be an everlasting light for you. You will never again be sad [because of things that happen to you].
Nunca mais o teu sol irá se por, nem tua lua minguará; porque o SENHOR será tua luz eterna, e os dias de teu luto se acabarão.
21 Your people will all be righteous, and they will occupy the land forever, because I myself have put you there [like people plant trees] [MET] in order that you will show others that I am very great.
E todos os de teu povo serão justos; para sempre terão posse da terra; serão renovo de minha plantação, obra de minhas mãos, para que eu seja glorificado.
22 At that time, the [groups that are] very small now will become [very large] clans, and small clans will become great nations. [All those things will happen because], I, Yahweh, will cause them to happen at the right time.”
O menor será mil, e o de menor tamanho será um povo forte; eu, o SENHOR, o farei depressa em seu [devido] tempo.
