< Yesaya 42 >

1 Kata TUHAN, "Inilah hamba-Ku yang Kudukung, orang pilihan-Ku yang menyenangkan hati-Ku. Aku telah memberi kuasa-Ku kepadanya, untuk membawa keadilan bagi setiap bangsa.
Here! servant my [whom] I support him chosen one my [whom] it is pleased with self my I have put spirit my on him justice to the nations he will bring forth.
2 Ia tak akan berteriak atau berseru dengan nyaring, suaranya tak akan terdengar di jalan.
Not he will cry out and not he will lift up and not he will make heard in the street voice his.
3 Buluh yang terkulai tak akan dipatahkannya, pelita yang kelap-kelip tak akan dipadamkannya. Dengan setia ia akan menyatakan kebenaran,
A reed crushed not he will break and a wick dim not he will extinguish it to faithfulness he will bring forth justice.
4 tanpa bimbang atau putus asa, sampai keadilan ditegakkan di bumi. Negeri-negeri yang jauh merindukan ajarannya."
Not he will grow dim and not he will be crushed until he will establish on the earth justice and for instruction his islands they will wait.
5 TUHAN Allah menciptakan dan membentangkan langit; Ia membentuk bumi dan segala yang tumbuh di atasnya. Ia memberi manusia napas kehidupan dan nyawa. Ia menyampaikan pesan ini kepada hamba-Nya,
Thus he says God - Yahweh [who] created the heavens and [who] stretched out them [who] spread out the earth and produce its [who] gives breath to the people on it and spirit to [those who] walk on it.
6 "Aku, TUHAN, memanggil dan menugaskan engkau untuk menjalankan keadilan. Engkau Kubimbing dan Kupelihara untuk menjadi perjanjian bagi umat manusia, dan cahaya bagi semua bangsa.
I Yahweh I have called you in righteousness and I may take hold on hand your and I may watch over you and I may make you a covenant of [the] people a light of [the] nations.
7 Untuk membuka mata orang buta, dan membebaskan orang dari kegelapan penjara.
To open eyes blind to bring out from prison prisoner[s] from a house of imprisonment [those who] dwell of darkness.
8 Akulah TUHAN, itulah nama-Ku; keagungan-Ku tidak Kuberikan kepada siapa pun; kemasyhuran-Ku tidak Kuserahkan kepada patung.
I [am] Yahweh that [is] name my and glory my to another not I will give and praise my to images.
9 Sekarang yang Kuramalkan sudah menjadi kenyataan; Aku mau memberitahukan hal-hal yang baru; sebelum itu terjadi, sudah Kukatakan kepadamu."
The former [things] there! they have come and new [things] I [am] about to tell before they will spring up I will cause to hear [them] you.
10 Nyanyikanlah lagu baru bagi TUHAN, pujilah Dia, hai seluruh bumi! Bergemuruhlah, hai laut dan semua isinya, negeri-negeri yang jauh dan semua penduduknya!
Sing to Yahweh a song new praise his from [the] end of the earth O [those who] go down the sea and what fills it O islands and inhabitants their.
11 Hendaklah padang gurun dan kota-kotanya memuji TUHAN, baiklah penduduk Kedar memuji Dia! Hendaklah penduduk kota Sela bersorak-sorai, dan berseru-seru dari puncak gunung!
Let them lift up [the] wilderness and cities its [the] villages [where] it dwells Kedar let them shout for joy [the] inhabitants of Sela from [the] top of [the] mountains let them cry aloud.
12 Baiklah mereka mengagungkan TUHAN, dan memasyhurkan Dia di negeri-negeri jauh.
Let them give to Yahweh glory and praise his in the islands let them declare.
13 TUHAN maju bertempur seperti seorang pahlawan, seperti seorang prajurit penuh semangat berperang. Ia mengangkat pekik pertempuran, dan menunjukkan keunggulan-Nya terhadap lawan.
Yahweh like warrior he will go forth like a man of war he will stir up zeal he will raise a war-cry also he will raise a battle-shout over enemies his he will prevail.
14 Allah berkata, "Sudah lama Aku membisu; Aku diam dan menahan diri. Sekarang tiba saatnya untuk bertindak, Aku mau berteriak seperti wanita yang melahirkan.
I have been silent from a long time I have kept silent I have restrained myself like [woman] giving birth I groan I puff and I may pant together.
15 Gunung dan bukit akan Kubuat tandus, semua tanamannya Kujadikan layu. Lembah-lembah sungai Kuubah menjadi padang gurun, semua danau Kujadikan kering.
I will lay waste mountains and hills and all vegetation their I will dry up and I will make rivers islands and pools I will dry up.
16 Bangsa-Ku yang buta akan Kubimbing melalui jalan yang tidak mereka ketahui; mereka akan Kutuntun di jalan-jalan yang tidak mereka kenal. Kegelapan Kujadikan terang bagi mereka, dan jalan yang berlekuk-lekuk Kuratakan. Itulah yang akan Kulakukan bagi mereka, dan pasti akan Kulaksanakan.
And I will lead blind [people] by a way [which] not they have known by paths [which] not they have known I will guide them I will make [the] dark place before them light and rough places level ground these [are] the things [which] I will do them and not I will abandon them.
17 Orang yang percaya kepada patung berhala dan mengakuinya sebagai ilah mereka, akan dihina dan dipermalukan."
They will be turned back backwards they will be ashamed shame those [who] trust in idol those [who] say to a molten image you [are] god our.
18 TUHAN berkata, "Dengarlah, hai orang-orang tuli! Lihatlah, hai orang-orang buta!
O deaf [people] listen and O blind [people] look to see.
19 Siapakah yang lebih buta dari Israel hamba-Ku? Siapakah yang lebih tuli dari utusan-Ku?
Who? [is] blind that except servant my and deaf like messenger my [whom] I will send who? [is] blind like [one] in a covenant and blind like [the] servant of Yahweh.
20 Israel, banyak yang kaulihat, tetapi tidak kauperhatikan, telingamu terbuka, tetapi engkau tidak mendengarkan."
(You have seen *Q(K)*) many [things] and not you keep [them] they are open ears and not he listens.
21 TUHAN berkenan menyelamatkan; Ia ingin hukum-Nya dihormati dan diagungkan.
Yahweh he was pleased for [the] sake of righteousness his he will make great [the] law so he may make [it] glorious.
22 Tetapi bangsa itu sudah habis dirampok; mereka ditahan dalam kamar-kamar di bawah tanah, dan disekap dalam penjara-penjara. Mereka menjadi korban perampokan, dan tak ada yang datang memberi pertolongan.
And it [is] a people despoiled and plundered they are trapped in holes all of them and in houses of imprisonment they are hidden they have become spoil and there not [is] a deliverer plunder and there not [is one who] says bring [it] back.
23 Siapa di antara kamu mau mendengarkan hal ini, dan memperhatikannya untuk selanjutnya?
Who? among you will he give ear to this will he pay attention? and he may listen? to afterwards.
24 Siapakah yang menyerahkan Israel untuk dirampas? Bukankah TUHAN sendiri? Terhadap Dialah kita berdosa, kita tidak hidup menurut perintah-Nya, dan tidak mengikuti ajaran-Nya.
Who? has he given (to plunder *Q(K)*) Jacob and Israel to despoilers ¿ not [was it] Yahweh whom we have sinned to him and not they were willing in ways his to walk and not they listened to law his.
25 Maka Ia membuat kita merasakan murka-Nya yang hebat, dan menderita karena peperangan yang dahsyat. Kemarahan-Nya membakar di Israel seperti api, tetapi kita tidak menyadarinya, dan tidak belajar dari yang kita alami.
And he poured out on it rage anger his and [the] fierceness of battle and it set ablaze it from round about and not it knew and it burned it and not it put [it] on heart.
