< Isaiah 62 >
1 Because I am very concerned about [the people of] Jerusalem [DOU], I will do something to help them. I will not stop praying for them until they are rescued/freed [from their oppressors], until that becomes as apparent to everyone as the dawn [every morning], until people can see it as clearly as [SIM] they see a torch shining brightly [at night].
Zaferi ışık gibi parlayıncaya, Kurtuluşu meşale gibi yanıncaya dek Siyon uğruna susmayacak, Yeruşalim uğruna sessiz kalmayacağım.
2 [Some day] the [people of many] nations will know that Yahweh has rescued you, [his people]. Their kings will see that your city is [very] great/glorious. And Yahweh [MTY] will give your [city] a new name.
Uluslar senin zaferini, Bütün krallar görkemini görecek. RAB'bin kendi ağzıyla belirlediği yeni bir adla anılacaksın.
3 [It will be as though] Yahweh will hold you up in his hands in order that everyone can see you. Under his authority [MTY], you will be [like] a glorious headband/turban worn by a king.
RAB'bin elinde güzellik tacı, Tanrın'ın elinde krallık sarığı olacaksın.
4 Your [city] will never again be called “the deserted/abandoned city” and your country will never again be called “the desolate land”; it will be called “the land that Yahweh delights in”, and [it will also be called] “married to Yahweh”. It will be called that because Yahweh will be delighted with you, [and it will be as though] you are his bride [MET].
Artık sana “Terk edilmiş”, Ülkene “Virane” denmeyecek; Bunun yerine sana “Sevdiğim”, Ülkene “Evli” denecek. Çünkü RAB seni seviyor, Ülken de evli sayılacak.
5 You people will live in all the country of Judah like [SIM] a young man lives with his bride. And our God will be happy that you [belong to] him like [SIM] a bridegroom is happy that his bride [belongs to him].
Bir delikanlı bir kızla nasıl evlenirse, Oğulların da seninle öyle evlenecek. Güvey gelinle nasıl sevinirse, Tanrın da seninle öyle sevinecek.
6 [You people of] Jerusalem, I have placed watchmen on your walls; they will [LIT] earnestly pray to Yahweh day and night. You watchmen, you must not stop [praying] [and] reminding Yahweh [about what he has promised to do]!
Ey Yeruşalim, surlarına bekçiler diktim, Gece gündüz hiç susmayacaklar. Ey RAB'be sözünü anımsatanlar, Yeruşalim'i pekiştirene, Onu yeryüzünün övüncü kılana dek Durup dinlenmeden RAB'be yakarın, O'na rahat vermeyin.
7 And tell Yahweh that he should not rest until he causes Jerusalem to be [a city that is] famous throughout the world.
8 Yahweh has raised his right hand to solemnly promise [to the people of Jerusalem], “I will use my power [MTY] and never again allow your enemies to defeat you; [soldiers from other nations will never come again] to take away your grain and the wine that you worked hard [to produce].
RAB sağ elini, güçlü kolunu kaldırıp ant içti: “Tahılını bir daha düşmanlarına yedirmeyeceğim, Emek verdiğin yeni şarabı yabancılar içmeyecek.
9 You yourselves grew the grain, and you will be the ones who will praise [me], Yahweh, while you eat [the bread made from] that grain. Inside the courtyards of my temple you yourselves will drink the wine made from the grapes [that you harvested].”
Tahılı devşiren yiyecek Ve RAB'be övgüler sunacak. Üzümü toplayan, Şarabını kutsal avlularımda içecek.”
10 Go out through the [city] gates! Prepare the highway on which people [will return from other countries]! Cause the road to become smooth; clear off [all] the stones; set up signal flags to help the people-groups to see [where the road to Jerusalem is].
Geçin, geçin kent kapılarından! Halkın yolunu açın! Toprak yığıp yol yapın, Taşları ayıklayın, uluslar için sancak dikin!
11 This is the message that Yahweh has sent to [the people of] every nation: “Tell the people of Israel, ‘The one who will rescue/save you is coming! Look! He will be bringing to you (your reward/what you deserve [for the good things that you have done]); those whom he is setting free will be going ahead of him.’”
RAB çağrısını dünyanın dört bucağına duyurdu: “Siyon kızına, ‘İşte kurtuluşun geliyor’ deyin, ‘Ücreti kendisiyle birlikte, ödülü önündedir.’”
12 They will be called “Yahweh’s own people, the ones whom he rescued”. And Jerusalem will be known as the city that [Yahweh] loves, the city that is no [longer] abandoned.
Siyon halkına, “RAB'bin fidyeyle kurtardığı kutsal halk” diyecekler. Ve sen Yeruşalim, “Aranan, terk edilmemiş kent” diye anılacaksın.
