Isaiah 60
1 Arise, be bright, for come hath thy light, And the honour of Jehovah hath risen on thee.
Surge illuminare Ierusalem: quia venit lumen tuum, et gloria Domini super te orta est.
2 For, lo, the darkness doth cover the earth, And thick darkness the peoples, And on thee rise doth Jehovah, And His honour on thee is seen.
Quia ecce tenebræ operient terram, et caligo populos: super te autem orietur Dominus, et gloria eius in te videbitur.
3 And come have nations to thy light, And kings to the brightness of thy rising.
Et ambulabunt gentes in lumine tuo, et reges in splendore ortus tui.
4 Lift up round about thine eyes and see, All of them have been gathered, they have come to thee, Thy sons from afar do come, And thy daughters on the side are supported.
Leva in circuitu oculos tuos, et vide: omnes isti congregati sunt, venerunt tibi: filii tui de longe venient, et filiæ tuæ de latere surgent.
5 Then thou seest, and hast become bright, And thine heart hath been afraid and enlarged, For turn unto thee doth the multitude of the sea, The forces of nations do come to thee.
Tunc videbis, et afflues, mirabitur et dilatabitur cor tuum, quando conversa fuerit ad te multitudo maris, fortitudo gentium venerit tibi:
6 A company of camels covereth thee, Dromedaries of Midian and Ephah, All of them from Sheba do come, Gold and frankincense they bear, And of the praises of Jehovah they proclaim the tidings.
Inundatio camelorum operiet te, dromedarii Madian et Epha: omnes de Saba venient, aurum et thus deferentes, et laudem Domino annunciantes.
7 All the flock of Kedar are gathered to thee, The rams of Nebaioth do serve thee, They ascend for acceptance Mine altar, And the house of My beauty I beautify.
Omne pecus Cedar congregabitur tibi, arietes Nabaioth ministrabunt tibi: offerentur super placabili altari meo, et domum maiestatis meæ glorificabo.
8 Who [are] these — as a thick cloud they fly, And as doves unto their windows?
Qui sunt isti, qui ut nubes volant, et quasi columbæ ad fenestras suas?
9 Surely for Me isles do wait, And ships of Tarshish first, To bring thy sons from afar, Their silver and their gold with them, To the name of Jehovah thy God, And to the Holy One of Israel, Because He hath beautified thee.
Me enim insulæ expectant, et naves maris in principio ut adducam filios tuos de longe: argentum eorum, et aurum eorum cum eis nomini Domini Dei tui, et Sancto Israel, quia glorificavit te.
10 And sons of a stranger have built thy walls, And their kings do serve thee, For in My wrath I have smitten thee, And in My good pleasure I have pitied thee.
Et ædificabunt filii peregrinorum muros tuos, et reges eorum ministrabunt tibi: in indignatione enim mea percussi te: et in reconciliatione mea misertus sum tui.
11 And opened have thy gates continually, By day and by night they are not shut, To bring unto thee the force of nations, Even their kings are led.
Et aperientur portæ tuæ iugiter: die ac nocte non claudentur, ut afferatur ad te fortitudo gentium, et reges earum adducantur:
12 For the nation and the kingdom that do not serve thee perish, Yea, the nations are utterly wasted.
gens enim et regnum, quod non servierit tibi, peribit: et Gentes solitudine vastabuntur.
13 The honour of Lebanon unto thee doth come, Fir, pine, and box together, To beautify the place of My sanctuary, And the place of My feet I make honourable.
Gloria Libani ad te veniet, abies et buxus, et pinus simul ad ornandum locum sanctificationis meæ, et locum pedum meorum glorificabo.
14 And come unto thee, bowing down, Have sons of those afflicting thee, And bowed themselves to the soles of thy feet Have all despising thee, And they have cried to thee: 'City of Jehovah, Zion of the Holy One of Israel.'
Et venient ad te curvi filii eorum, qui humiliaverunt te, et adorabunt vestigia pedum tuorum omnes, qui detrahebant tibi, et vocabunt te civitatem Domini, Sion Sancti Israel.
15 Instead of thy being forsaken and hated, And none passing through, I have made thee for an excellency age-during, A joy of generation and generation.
Pro eo quod fuisti derelicta, et odio habita, et non erat qui per te transiret, ponam te in superbiam sæculorum, gaudium in generationem et generationem:
16 And thou hast sucked the milk of nations, Yea, the breast of kings thou suckest, And thou hast known that I, Jehovah, Thy Saviour, and Thy Redeemer, [Am] the Mighty One of Jacob.
et suges lac Gentium, et mamilla regum lactaberis: et scies quia ego Dominus Salvans te, et Redemptor tuus Fortis Iacob.
17 Instead of the brass I bring in gold, And instead of the iron I bring in silver, And instead of the wood brass, And instead of the stone iron, And I have made thy inspection peace, And thy exactors righteousness.
Pro ære afferam aurum, et pro ferro afferam argentum: et pro lignis æs, et pro lapidibus ferrum: et ponam visitationem tuam pacem, et præpositos tuos iustitiam.
18 Violence is not heard any more in thy land, Spoiling and destruction in thy borders, And thou hast called 'Salvation' thy walls, And thy gates, 'Praise.'
Non audietur ultra iniquitas in terra tua, vastitas et contritio in terminis tuis, et occupabit salus muros tuos, et portas tuas laudatio.
19 To thee no more is the sun for a light by day, And for brightness the moon giveth not light to thee, And Jehovah hath become to thee A light age-during, and thy God thy beauty.
Non erit tibi amplius sol ad lucendum per diem, nec splendor lunæ illuminabit te: sed erit tibi Dominus in lucem sempiternam, et Deus tuus in gloriam tuam.
20 Thy sun goeth no more in, And thy moon is not removed, For Jehovah becometh to thee a light age-during. And the days of thy mourning have been completed.
Non occidet ultra sol tuus, et luna tua non minuetur: quia erit tibi Dominus in lucem sempiternam, et complebuntur dies luctus tui.
21 And thy people [are] all of them righteous, To the age they possess the earth, A branch of My planting, A work of My hands, to be beautified.
Populus autem tuus omnes iusti, in perpetuum hereditabunt terram, germen plantationis meæ, opus manus meæ ad glorificandum.
22 The little one doth become a chief, And the small one a mighty nation, I, Jehovah, in its own time do hasten it!
Minimus erit in mille, et parvulus in gentem fortissimam: ego Dominus in tempore eius subito faciam istud.
