< Isaia 62 >

1 Tsy hitsin-draho ty amy Tsione, tsy hitofa ty am’ Ierosalaime; ampara’ te mionjom-beo am-pireandreañe ty fandrebaha’e, naho manahake ty firebarebam-pañilo ty fandrombaha’e.
I can't remain silent because of my love for Zion, I can't keep quiet because of my love for Jerusalem, until her integrity shines like a beam of light, until her salvation blazes like a burning torch.
2 Ho isa’ o fifeheañeo ty fandreketa’o, naho o mpanjaka iabio ty enge’o; vaho ho kanjieñe tahinañe vao irehe, ze ho toñonem-palie’ Iehovà.
The nations will see the way you live right, and all the kings will see how you are blessed, and you will be called by a new name that the Lord gives you.
3 Ie ho sabaka soa am-pità’ Iehovà ka, naho banetram-panjaka an-dela-pitàn’ Añahare.
You will be a crown of beauty in the Lord's hand; a royal head-dress in the hand of your God.
4 Tsy hatao Naforintseñe ka irehe, naho tsy ho tokaveñe ty hoe mangoakoake ka ty tane’o; fa hoe ty hatao azo: An-Kafaleako, naho ty tane’o: Manam-baly; amy te ifalea’ Iehovà, vaho hanam-baly ty tane’o.
You won't be called Abandoned anymore; your land won't be called Desolate. Instead you will be called She Makes Me Happy, and your land will be called Married, because you make the Lord happy, and your land will be married.
5 Hambañe ami’ty fañengàn’ ajalahy ty somondrara miehañe, ty hañengà’ o ana-dahi’oo azo; vaho manahake ty firebeha’ ty mpañenga amy enga-vao’ey, ty hifalean’ Añahare’o ama’o.
For just like a young man marries a young woman, so your sons will marry you; and like a groom is happy with his bride, so your God will be happy with you.
6 Fa nampijadoñeko ambone’ kijoli’o ey ty mpijilo, ry Ierosalaime, tsy hianjiñe handro an-kaleñe iereo; ko mitofa ry mpanohiñe Iehovào,
I have placed watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; they won't ever be silent, day or night. You who pray to the Lord, don't ever stop and take a rest.
7 vaho ko apo’ areo t’ie hitofa, ampara’ te oriza’e, eka ampara’ te hanoe’e fandrengea’ ty tane toy t’Ierosalaime.
Don't give the Lord a rest either, until he finishes his work, until he makes Jerusalem the most praiseworthy place on earth.
8 Fa nifanta am-pità’e havana t’Iehovà, an-tsiran-kaozara’e: T’ie tsy ho fahanako amo ampemba’oo o rafelahi’oo, naho tsy hinoman’ ambahiny ka o divay nitoloñe’oo.
The Lord has made a solemn promise, swearing by his power and might: I won't ever again let your enemies have your grain to eat, or let foreigners drink the new wine you worked hard for.
9 O nanontoñe azeo ty hikama ama’e, naho handrenge Iehovà, vaho o nitimpoñe azeo ty hinoñe ama’e, an-kiririsan-toeko miavake eo.
Instead, those who harvest the grain will eat it and praise the Lord, and those who harvest the grapes for the wine will drink it in the courts of my Temple.
10 Iziliho, iziliho o lalam-beio, hajario ty lala’ ondatio; ampitoabòro, ampitoaboro i tatakey, hene aveveo o vatoo, zonjò viloñe ambone’ ondatio ey.
Exit! Exit through the gates! Clear the way for the people! Build the highway! Get rid of any rocks on the road! Lift up a flag so the nations can see!
11 Ingo fa nikoike pak’añ’olon-tane añe t’Iehovà, Ano ty hoe t’i Tsione anak’ampela: Ingo, mb’eo ty fandrombaha’o; rekets’ i tambe’ey, ama’e ka ty vale-soa’e.
See! The Lord has announced to everyone on earth, Tell the Daughter of Zion: Look! Your Savior is coming. He's bringing his reward with him, coming to give his gift!
12 Hatao ty hoe iereo: Ondaty masiñe, jineba’ Iehovà. Ho tokaveñe ty hoe irehe: Tsinoeke; Rova tsy Naforintseñe.
They will be called the Holy People, the Redeemed of the Lord; and you will be called the Sought-After Place, A City No Longer Abandoned.
