Isaayyaas 62
1 Hamma qajeelummaan ishee akka barii barraaqaa, fayyinni ishee akka guca bobaʼuu ifutti, ani waaʼee Xiyoon hin calʼisu; waaʼee Yerusaalemis afaan hin qabadhu.
For Zion's sake I will not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp that burns.
2 Saboonni qajeelummaa kee, mootonni hundinuus ulfina kee ni argu; ati maqaa haaraa, kan afaan Waaqayyoo siif baasuun ni waamamta.
And the nations shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory. And thou shall be called by a new name, which the mouth of Jehovah shall name.
3 Ati harka Waaqayyoo keessatti gonfoo ulfinaa, harka Waaqa keetii keessattis marata mootii ni taata.
Thou shall also be a crown of beauty in the hand of Jehovah, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
4 Ati siʼachi, Gatamtuu hin jedhamtu, yookaan biyyi kee Ontuu hin jedhamtu. Ati garuu, “Ani isheetti nan gammada” jedhamta; biyyi kees “kan heerumte” jedhamti; Waaqayyo sitti gammadaatii, biyyi kee ni heerumti.
Thou shall no more be termed Forsaken, nor shall thy land any more be termed Desolate. But thou shall be called Hephzi-bah, and thy land Beulah, for Jehovah delights in thee, and thy land shall be married.
5 Akkuma dargaggeessi durba fuudhu, ilmaan kee si fuudhu; akkuma misirrichi misirrittiitti gammadu, Waaqni kees sitti gammada.
For as a young man marries a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee. And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.
6 Yaa Yerusaalem, ani dallaawwan kee irratti eegdota ramadeera; isaan gonkumaa halkanii fi guyyaa hin calʼisan. Isin warri Waaqayyoon waammattan, ofii keessaniif boqonnaa hin kenninaa;
I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem. They shall never keep silent day nor night. Ye who are Jehovah's reminders, take ye no rest,
7 hamma inni Yerusaalemin cimsee ijaaree akka isheen lafa irratti leellifamtuu taatu godhutti boqonnaa isaaf hin kenninaa.
and give him no rest, till he establishes, and till he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.
8 Waaqayyo akkana jedhee harka isaa mirgaatii fi irree isaa jabaa sanaan kakateera; “Ani lammata midhaan kee nyaata godhee diinota keetiif hin kennu; namoonni ormaas lammata daadhii wayinii haaraa kan ati itti dadhabde hin dhugan;
Jehovah has sworn by his right hand, and by the arm of his strength, Surely I will no more give thy grain to be food for thine enemies, and foreigners shall not drink thy new wine, for which thou have labored.
9 garuu warri galfatan midhaan sana ni nyaatu; Waaqayyoonis ni galateeffatu; warri ija wayinii guurratanis oobdii iddoo qulqulluu koo keessatti ni dhugu.”
But those who have garnered it shall eat it, and praise Jehovah. And those who have gathered it shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.
10 Keessa darbaa; karrawwan keessaan darbaa! Uummataaf karaa qopheessaa. Tolchaa; karaa guddaa tolchaa! Dhagaawwan bubuqqisaa. Sabootaafis faajjii ol qabaa.
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 Waaqayyo akkana jedhee hamma moggaa lafaatti labseera; “Intala Xiyooniin akkana jedhaa: ‘Kunoo Fayyisaan kee ni dhufa! Badhaasni isaa kunoo isa harka jira; beenyaan inni namaaf baasus isuma wajjin jira.’”
Behold, Jehovah has proclaimed to the end of the earth, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation comes. Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.
12 Isaanis Saba Qulqulluu, Furamtoota Waaqayyoo jedhamanii ni waamamu; atis barbaadamtuu, Magaalaa Siʼachi Hin Onne ni jedhamta.
And they shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of Jehovah. And thou shall be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.
