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!
¡Levántate, resplandece, porque llegó tu Luz! ¡La gloria de Yavé resplandeció 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.
En verdad, la tenebrosidad cubrirá la tierra, densa oscuridad, a los pueblos. Pero Yavé resplandecerá sobre ti, y aparecerá su gloria 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.
Los gentiles acudirán a tu luz, los reyes, al resplandor de tu amanecer.
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 tus ojos alrededor y mira. Todos ellos se reunieron y vinieron a ti. Tus hijos vendrán de lejos y tus hijas serán traídas en brazos.
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.
Entonces verás y resplandecerás. Tu corazón se maravillará y se regocijará porque vuelve a ti la abundancia del mar. La riqueza de las naciones viene a ti.
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.
Una multitud de camellos te cubrirá, dromedarios de Madián y de Efa. Vendrán todos los de Sabá. Traerán oro e incienso, y proclamarán las alabanzas de Yavé.
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.
Serán reunidos para ti todos los rebaños de Cedar, los carneros de Nebaiot te servirán. Subirán como ofrenda agradable sobre mi altar, y glorificaré el esplendor de mi Casa.
8 And what are those things that are moving swiftly like [SIM] clouds? They resemble [SIM] doves [returning] to their nests.
¿Quiénes son éstos que vuelan como nubes, y como palomas a su palomar?
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.
Ciertamente, las costas esperarán en Mí. Las naves de Tarsis vendrán a la cabeza. Traerán a tus hijos de lejos con su plata y su oro por causa del Nombre de Yavé tu ʼElohim y del Santo de Israel, Quien te llenó de esplendor.
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.
Extranjeros reedificarán tus muros, y sus reyes te servirán. Aunque te castigué en mi furor, en mi buena voluntad tendré misericordia 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.
Tus puertas estarán continuamente abiertas. No serán cerradas de día ni de noche, para que las riquezas de las naciones sean traídas a ti, y sus reyes conducidos a ti.
12 And the kingdoms and nations whose [people] refuse to allow you to rule them will be completely destroyed [DOU].
Porque la nación o el reino que no te sirva perecerá. Esa nación será completamente destruida.
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!
Vendrá a ti el esplendor del Líbano con el ciprés, el abeto y el pino, para hermosear el lugar de mi Santuario. Yo haré esplendoroso el estrado de mis pies.
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.
Los hijos de los que te afligieron vendrán encorvados a ti, y los que te escarnecieron se postrarán a las plantas de tus pies. Te llamarán Ciudad de Yavé, Sion del 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.
Aunque fuiste abandonada y aborrecida, sin que nadie transitara por ti, Yo te convierto en esplendor perpetuo, el gozo de todas las generaciones.
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.
Mamarás la leche de las naciones y el pecho de los reyes. Entenderás que Yo, Yavé, soy tu Salvador, tu Redentor, el Fuerte de Jacob.
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.
En lugar de bronce, te traeré oro. En lugar de hierro, te traeré plata. En lugar de madera, bronce. En lugar de piedras, hierro. Te daré la paz como administrador, y la justicia como supervisor.
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].
No se oirá más en tu tierra: ¡Violencia! Ni dentro de tus fronteras: ¡Ruina! ¡Destrucción! Tus muros se llamarán Salvación, y tus puertas Alabanza.
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.
El sol nunca jamás te servirá como luz de día, ni el resplandor de la luna te alumbrará. Yavé será tu Luz perpetua. El ʼElohim tuyo será tu Esplendor.
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].
Tu sol no se ocultará jamás, ni menguará tu luna, porque Yavé será tu Luz perpetua. Los días de tu luto terminarán.
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.
Tu pueblo, todos ellos justos, heredarán para siempre la tierra, retoños de mi plantío, obra de mis manos, para que Yo sea 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.”
El más pequeño equivaldrá a 1.000, y el menor a una nación poderosa. Yo, Yavé, apresuraré esto en su tiempo.
