Yesaya 62
1 Demi Yerusalem aku akan berbicara, demi Sion aku tak akan tinggal diam, sampai ia diselamatkan dan kemenangannya bersinar seperti obor di waktu malam.
For Sion's sake I will not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until her righteousness go forth as light, and my salvation burn as a torch.
2 Hai Yerusalem, bangsa-bangsa melihat kemenanganmu, raja-raja memandang kebesaranmu. Engkau akan disebut dengan nama baru, TUHAN sendiri yang memberi nama itu.
And the Gentiles shall see your righteousness, and kings your glory: and one shall call you [by] a new name, which the Lord shall name.
3 Engkau menjadi seperti mahkota indah di tangan TUHAN, mahkota kerajaan di tangan Allahmu.
And you shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 Namamu bukan lagi 'Yang Ditinggalkan', negerimu bukan lagi 'Yang Kesepian'. Engkau akan disebut, 'Yang Disayangi Allah', dan negerimu dinamakan, 'Yang Sudah Menikah,' sebab TUHAN berkenan kepadamu, Ia seperti suami bagi negerimu.
And you shall no more be called Forsaken; and your land shall no more be called Desert: for you shall be called My Pleasure, and your land Inhabited: for the Lord has taken pleasure in you, and your land shall be inhabited.
5 Seperti seorang pemuda mempersunting anak dara, begitulah Penciptamu akan memperistri engkau. Seperti seorang mempelai gembira melihat istrinya, begitulah Allah akan menyenangi engkau.
And as a young man lives with a virgin, so shall your sons dwell in [you]: and it shall come to pass [that] as a bridegroom will rejoice over a bride, so will the Lord rejoice over you.
6 Di tembok Yerusalem aku menempatkan pengawal; siang dan malam mereka tak boleh diam, tetapi harus terus mengingatkan Allah akan janji yang sudah dibuat-Nya.
And on your walls, O Jerusalem, have I set watchmen all day and all night, who shall never cease making mention of the Lord.
7 Mereka tak boleh membiarkan Dia tinggal diam sebelum Ia membangun kembali Yerusalem, dan menjadikannya termasyhur di seluruh bumi.
For there is none like you, when he shall have established, and made Jerusalem a praise on the earth.
8 TUHAN telah berjanji dengan sumpah dan akan melaksanakannya dengan kuasa-Nya: "Aku tak akan lagi memberikan gandummu kepada musuh; orang asing tak akan lagi minum anggurmu yang kamu hasilkan dengan susah payah.
For the Lord has sworn by his glory, and by the might of his arm, I will no more give your corn and your provisions to your enemies; nor shall strangers any more drink your wine, for which you has laboured.
9 Tapi kamu yang mengumpulkan panenan, akan makan hasilnya dan memuji TUHAN; dan kamu yang memetik buah anggur, akan minum airnya di pelataran Rumah-Ku."
But they that have gathered them shall eat them, and they shall praise the Lord; and they that have gathered [the grapes] shall drink thereof in my holy courts.
10 Penduduk Yerusalem, keluarlah lewat pintu gerbang, siapkan jalan bagi orang-orang yang pulang. Buatlah jalan raya, singkirkan batunya, tegakkan panji-panji untuk bangsa-bangsa.
Go through my gates, and make a way for my people; and cast the stones out of the way; lift up a standard for the Gentiles.
11 TUHAN memberi pesan ini kepada segala penjuru bumi, "Katakan kepada penduduk Sion, 'Lihat, TUHAN Penyelamat datang! Ia diiringi orang-orang yang telah dibebaskan-Nya.'"
For behold, the Lord has proclaimed to the end of the earth, say you to the daughter of Sion, Behold, your Saviour has come to you, having his reward and his work before his face.
12 Mereka akan dinamakan: 'Umat suci'; 'Umat yang diselamatkan TUHAN'. Yerusalem akan disebut 'Kota yang dirayu TUHAN', 'Kota yang tidak lagi ditinggalkan TUHAN'.
And one shall call them the holy people, the redeemed of the Lord: and you shall be called a city sought out, and not forsaken.
