Isaiæ 62
1 propter Sion non tacebo et propter Hierusalem non quiescam donec egrediatur ut splendor iustus eius et salvator eius ut lampas accendatur
For Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until her righteousness go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp that burneth.
2 et videbunt gentes iustum tuum et cuncti reges inclitum tuum et vocabitur tibi nomen novum quod os Domini nominabit
And the nations shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name.
3 et eris corona gloriae in manu Domini et diadema regni in manu Dei tui
Thou shalt also be a crown of beauty in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
4 non vocaberis ultra Derelicta et terra tua non vocabitur amplius Desolata sed vocaberis Voluntas mea in ea et terra tua Inhabitata quia conplacuit Domino in te et terra tua inhabitabitur
Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzi-bah, and thy land Beulah: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married.
5 habitabit enim iuvenis cum virgine et habitabunt in te filii tui et gaudebit sponsus super sponsam gaudebit super te Deus tuus
For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.
6 super muros tuos Hierusalem constitui custodes tota die et tota nocte perpetuo non tacebunt qui reminiscimini Domini ne taceatis
I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem; they shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that are the LORD’S remembrancers, take ye no rest,
7 et ne detis silentium ei donec stabiliat et donec ponat Hierusalem laudem in terra
and give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
8 iuravit Dominus in dextera sua et in brachio fortitudinis suae si dedero triticum tuum ultra cibum inimicis tuis et si biberint filii alieni vinum tuum in quo laborasti
The LORD hath sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more give thy corn to be meat for thine enemies; and strangers shall not drink thy wine, for the which thou hast laboured:
9 quia qui congregabunt illud comedent et laudabunt Dominum et qui conportant illud bibent in atriis sanctis meis
but they that have garnered it shall eat it, and praise the LORD; and they that have gathered it shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.
10 transite transite per portas praeparate viam populo planum facite iter et eligite lapides elevate signum ad populos
Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up an ensign for the peoples.
11 ecce Dominus auditum fecit in extremis terrae dicite filiae Sion ecce salvator tuus venit ecce merces eius cum eo et opus eius coram illo
Behold, the LORD hath proclaimed unto the end of the earth, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompence before him.
12 et vocabunt eos Populus sanctus Redempti a Domino tu autem vocaberis Quaesita civitas et non Derelicta
And they shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD: and thou shalt be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.
