Yesaya 11
1 Keturunan Raja Daud seperti pohon yang sudah ditebang. Tetapi sebagaimana dari tunggul tumbuh tunas baru, demikian pula dari keturunan Daud akan muncul seorang raja.
A shoot will come out of the stock of Jesse, and a branch out of his roots will bear fruit.
2 Kuasa TUHAN akan membimbing dia, menjadikan dia berbudi dan bijaksana, cakap mengambil keputusan dan melaksanakannya; mengenal kehendak Allah dan takwa kepada-Nya.
The LORD’s Spirit will rest on him: the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD.
3 Kesukaannya yaitu taat kepada TUHAN. Ia tidak mengadili sekilas pandang atau berdasarkan kata orang.
His delight will be in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge by the sight of his eyes, neither decide by the hearing of his ears;
4 Orang miskin dihakiminya dengan adil, orang tak berdaya dibelanya dengan jujur; orang bersalah dihukum atas perintahnya, orang jahat ditumpasnya.
but he will judge the poor with righteousness, and decide with equity for the humble of the earth. He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth; and with the breath of his lips he will kill the wicked.
5 Ia bertindak dengan adil dan setia dalam segala-galanya.
Righteousness will be the belt around his waist, and faithfulness the belt around his waist.
6 Serigala akan tinggal bersama domba, macan tutul berbaring di samping kambing. Anak sapi akan merumput bersama anak singa, dan anak kecil menggiring mereka.
The wolf will live with the lamb, and the leopard will lie down with the young goat, the calf, the young lion, and the fattened calf together; and a little child will lead them.
7 Sapi akan makan rumput bersama beruang, anak-anaknya berbaring bersama-sama. Singa makan jerami seperti sapi.
The cow and the bear will graze. Their young ones will lie down together. The lion will eat straw like the ox.
8 Bahkan seorang bayi takkan cedera bila bermain dekat ular berbisa.
The nursing child will play near a cobra’s hole, and the weaned child will put his hand on the viper’s den.
9 Di Sion, Bukit Suci Allah, tak ada yang jahat atau merusak. Negeri akan penuh pengetahuan tentang Allah, seperti air memenuhi lautan.
They will not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
10 Saatnya akan tiba seorang raja keturunan Daud menjadi pusat perhatian bangsa-bangsa. Mereka akan datang kepadanya, dan tempat kediamannya akan disanjung-sanjung.
It will happen in that day that the nations will seek the root of Jesse, who stands as a banner of the peoples; and his resting place will be glorious.
11 Pada hari itu TUHAN akan sekali lagi memakai kekuasaan-Nya dan membawa pulang umat-Nya yang tersisa di Asyur dan Mesir, di negeri-negeri Patros, Sudan dan Elam, di Babel, Hamat dan pulau-pulau yang jauh.
It will happen in that day that the Lord will set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant that is left of his people from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
12 TUHAN akan menaikkan sebuah panji-panji untuk bangsa-bangsa. Itulah tandanya Ia mengumpulkan kembali bangsa Israel dan Yehuda yang terserak di segala penjuru bumi dan membawa mereka pulang.
He will set up a banner for the nations, and will assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
13 Kerajaan Israel tidak lagi iri hati kepada Yehuda, dan Yehuda tidak lagi memusuhi Israel.
The envy also of Ephraim will depart, and those who persecute Judah will be cut off. Ephraim will not envy Judah, and Judah will not persecute Ephraim.
14 Mereka bersama-sama akan menyerang orang Filistin di barat dan merampasi bangsa-bangsa di timur. Mereka akan menaklukkan bangsa Edom dan Moab, dan bangsa Amon akan tunduk kepada mereka.
They will fly down on the shoulders of the Philistines on the west. Together they will plunder the children of the east. They will extend their power over Edom and Moab, and the children of Ammon will obey them.
15 TUHAN akan mengeringkan Teluk Suez. Ia membuat angin panas bertiup sehingga Sungai Efrat menjadi tujuh batang air yang dangkal, dan setiap orang dapat menyeberanginya dengan berkasut.
The LORD will utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his scorching wind he will wave his hand over the River, and will split it into seven streams, and cause men to march over in sandals.
16 Bagi umat-Nya yang tersisa akan ada jalan raya untuk keluar dari Asyur, seperti pada waktu Israel keluar dari Mesir.
There will be a highway for the remnant that is left of his people from Assyria, like there was for Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt.
