< Yesaya 62 >

1 Le Zion ta la, nyemazi ɖoɖoe o, le Yerusalem ta la, nyemazi kpi o, va se ɖe esime eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye naklẽ abe kekeli ene, eye eƒe ɖeɖe nabi abe akakati ene.
For the sake of Zion, I will not be silent, and for the sake of Jerusalem, I will not rest, until her Just One advances in splendor, and her Savior is kindled like a lamp.
2 Dukɔwo akpɔ wò dzɔdzɔenyenye, eye fiawo akpɔ wò ŋutikɔkɔe. Woayɔ ŋkɔ yeye si Yehowa ƒe nu atsɔ na wò la na wò.
And the Gentiles will see your Just One, and all the kings will see your Renowned One. And you shall be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord will choose.
3 Ànye atsyɔ̃kuku le Yehowa ƒe asi me kple fiakuku le wò Mawu ƒe asi me.
And you shall be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 Womagayɔ wò azɔ be Wogbe nu le egbɔ, alo ayɔ wò anyigba be Gbegbe o. Ke boŋ woayɔ wò be, Hefziba si gɔmee nye Eƒe nu nyo ŋunye, eye woayɔ wò anyigba be Biula, si gɔmee nye eɖe srɔ̃, elabena wò nu anyo Yehowa ŋu, eye wòaɖe wò anyigba abe srɔ̃ ene.
You will no longer be called Forsaken. And your land will no longer be called Desolate. Instead, you shall be called My Will within it, and your land shall be called Inhabited. For the Lord has been well pleased with you, and your land will be inhabited.
5 Abe ale si ɖekakpui ɖea ɖetugbii ene la, nenema ke viwò ŋutsuwo aɖe wòe, eye abe ale si ŋugbetɔsrɔ̃ kpɔa dzidzɔe ɖe eƒe ŋugbetɔ ŋu ene la, nenemae wò Mawu akpɔ dzidzɔ ɖe ŋuwòe.
For the young man will live with the virgin, and your children will live with you. And the groom will rejoice over the bride, and your God will rejoice over you.
6 O! Yerusalem, meɖo gbetakpɔlawo wò gliwo dzi. Womazi ɖoɖoe le ŋkeke me alo zã me o. Mi ame siwo yɔa Yehowa, migagbɔ ɖe eme o,
Upon your walls, O Jerusalem, I have stationed watchmen all day and all night unceasingly; they will not be silent. You who are mindful of the Lord, you should not be silent,
7 eye migana gbɔdzɔe o, va se ɖe esime wòaɖo Yerusalem te, awɔe wòanye kafukafunu le anyigba dzi.
and you should not grant silence to him, until he makes firm and establishes Jerusalem as a praise upon the earth.
8 Yehowa ta eƒe ɖusibɔ kple eƒe alɔ sesẽ la be, “Nyemagatsɔ wò bli ana wò futɔwo wòanye nuɖuɖu na wo gbeɖe o, eye wain yeye si ŋuti nèku kutri ɖo la, nyemagana amedzrowo naxɔe ano o.
The Lord has sworn with his right hand and with the arm of his strength: “Certainly, I will no longer permit your grain to be the food of your enemies. And the sons of foreigners will not drink your wine, for which you have labored.”
9 Ke ame siwo xa nukuawo la, woaɖu wo, akafu Yehowa, eye ame siwo gbe waintsetseawo la, ano wo me ha le nye xɔxɔnu kɔkɔewo.”
For those who gather it will eat it, and they will praise the Lord. And those who bring it together will drink it in my holy courts.
10 Mito eme yi, mito agboawo me yi! Midzra mɔ ɖo na dukɔ la. Mido mɔ, mido mɔtatawo. Miɖe kpewo ɖa le mɔa dzi. Mikɔ aflaga dzi na dukɔwo.
Pass through, pass through the gates! Prepare a way for the people! Make the road level, remove the stones, and lift up a sign for the people!
11 Yehowa na woɖe gbeƒãe le anyigba ƒe mlɔenuwo ke be, “Migblɔ na Zion vinyɔnu la be, ‘Kpɔ ɖa, wò Ɖela gbɔna! Kpɔ ɖa, eƒe fetu kple eƒe teƒeɖoɖo kpe ɖe eŋuti.’”
Behold, the Lord has caused it to be heard to the ends of the earth. Tell the daughter of Zion: “Behold, your Savior approaches! Behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him.”
12 Woayɔ wo be, “Ame kɔkɔewo. Yehowa ƒe Ame siwo wòɖe.” Ke wò la, woayɔ wò be, “Ame si dim wole vevie,” eye woayɔ wò be, “Du si gbɔ womagagbe nu le o.”
And they will call them: The holy people, the redeemed of the Lord. Then you will be called: A city sought, and not forsaken.
