Yesaya 52
1 Nyɔ! O! Zion, nyɔ ne nàta ŋusẽ. Tsɔ wò atsyɔ̃vɔ nàta. O! Yerusalem, du kɔkɔe. Aʋamatsolawo kple ame makɔmakɔwo magage ɖe mewò azɔ o.
Awake, awake, clothe yourself with strength, O Zion! Put on your garments of splendor, O Jerusalem, holy city! For the uncircumcised and unclean will no longer enter you.
2 Ʋuʋu ke le ŋutiwò. Tsi tsitre! Yerusalem, ne nànɔ fiazi dzi. O! Zion nyɔnuvi si woɖe aboyoe, ɖe ga si wode kɔ na wò la ɖa.
Shake off your dust! Rise up and sit on your throne, O Jerusalem. Remove the chains from your neck, O captive Daughter of Zion.
3 Elabena ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi, “Wotsɔ mi dzra naneke maxɔmaxɔe, eya ta woagbugbɔ mi axɔ, gake menye kple ga o.”
For this is what the LORD says: “You were sold for nothing, and without money you will be redeemed.”
4 Ale Aƒetɔ Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Tsã la, nye dukɔ yi Egipte be wòanɔ afi ma. Emegbe la, Asiriatɔwo tee ɖe to vevie.
For this is what the Lord GOD says: “At first My people went down to Egypt to live, then Assyria oppressed them without cause.
5 “Ke azɔ la, nu kae le asinye le afi sia?” Yehowae gblɔe. “Esi me wokplɔ nye dukɔ dzoe yakatsyɔ, eye wo dziɖulawo ɖua fewu le wo ŋu.” Yehowae gblɔe. “Gbe sia gbe wole gbɔ̃ ɖim nye ŋkɔ,
And now what have I here? declares the LORD. For My people have been taken without cause; those who rule them taunt, declares the LORD, and My name is blasphemed continually all day long.
6 eya ta nye dukɔ anya nye ŋkɔ, eye le ŋkeke ma dzi la, woanya be nyee gblɔe da ɖi. Ɛ̃, be nyee.”
Therefore My people will know My name; therefore they will know on that day that I am He who speaks. Here I am!”
7 Du nyui tsɔlawo ƒe afɔwo nyo le towo dzi loo! Ame siwo ɖea gbeƒã ŋutifafa, ame siwo hea gbedeasi nyuiwo vɛ. Ame siwo ɖe gbeƒã ɖeɖekpɔkpɔ, eye wogblɔna na Zion be, “Wò Mawu nye fia ɖaa!”
How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
8 Ɖo to afii, wò gbetakpɔlawo kɔ woƒe gbewo dzi hedo dzidzɔɣli ɖekae. Ne Yehowa trɔ gbɔ va Zion la, woakpɔe kple woƒe ŋkuwo.
Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices, together they shout for joy. For every eye will see when the LORD returns to Zion.
9 Midzi dzidzɔhawo, mi Yerusalem ƒe gli kpowo, elabena Yehowa fa akɔ na eƒe dukɔ, eye wòɖe Yerusalem.
Break forth in joy, sing together, O ruins of Jerusalem, for the LORD has comforted His people; He has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 Yehowa aklo nu le eƒe abɔ kɔkɔe la ŋu le dukɔwo ƒe ŋkume, eye anyigba ƒe mlɔenuwo ke hã akpɔ mia Mawu la ƒe ɖeɖe.
The LORD has bared His holy arm in the sight of all the nations; all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.
11 Midzo, midzo, mido go le afi ma! Migaka asi nu makɔmakɔ aɖeke ŋu o! Mido go le eme, Migade asi woƒe nu siwo ŋuti mekɔ o. Mi ame siwo lé Yehowa ƒe kpluwo ɖe asi.
Depart, depart, go out from there! Touch no unclean thing; come out from it, purify yourselves, you who carry the vessels of the LORD.
12 Ke miadzo kplakplakpla alo asi adzo o, elabena Yehowa adze ŋgɔ na mi, eye Israel ƒe Mawu la axe megbe na mi.
For you will not leave in a hurry nor flee in haste, for the LORD goes before you, and the God of Israel is your rear guard.
13 Kpɔɖa, nye dɔla awɔ nu ɖe nunya me. Woadoe ɖe dzi. Axɔ ŋkɔ, eye woade bubu gã aɖe eŋu.
Behold, My Servant will prosper; He will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.
14 Abe ale si ame geɖewo ƒe nu ku le eŋuti, eƒe dzedzeme tro kpaɖikpaɖi wu ame sia ame tɔ, eye eƒe nɔnɔme gblẽ ale gbegbe be, megaɖi amegbetɔ o ene la,
Just as many were appalled at Him — His appearance was disfigured beyond that of any man, and His form was marred beyond human likeness—
15 nenema kee wòahlẽ nu ɖe dukɔ geɖewo dzi, eye fiawo amia nu le eya amea ta, elabena woakpɔ nu si womegblɔ na wo o, eye woase nu si womese kpɔ o la gɔme.
so He will sprinkle many nations. Kings will shut their mouths because of Him. For they will see what they have not been told, and they will understand what they have not heard.
