Књига пророка Исаије 62
1 Сиона ради нећу умукнути, и Јерусалима ради нећу се умирити, докле не изађе као светлост правда његова и спасење се његово разгори као свећа.
Because I am very concerned about [the people of] Jerusalem [DOU], I will do something to help them. I will not stop praying for them until they are rescued/freed [from their oppressors], until that becomes as apparent to everyone as the dawn [every morning], until people can see it as clearly as [SIM] they see a torch shining brightly [at night].
2 Тада ће видети народи правду твоју и сви цареви славу твоју, и прозваћеш се новим именом, које ће уста Господња изрећи.
[Some day] the [people of many] nations will know that Yahweh has rescued you, [his people]. Their kings will see that your city is [very] great/glorious. And Yahweh [MTY] will give your [city] a new name.
3 И бићеш красан венац у руци Господњој и царска круна у руци Бога свог.
[It will be as though] Yahweh will hold you up in his hands in order that everyone can see you. Under his authority [MTY], you will be [like] a glorious headband/turban worn by a king.
4 Нећеш се више звати остављена, нити ће се земља твоја звати пустош, него ћеш се звати милина моја и земља твоја удата, јер ћеш бити мио Господу и земља ће твоја бити удата.
Your [city] will never again be called “the deserted/abandoned city” and your country will never again be called “the desolate land”; it will be called “the land that Yahweh delights in”, and [it will also be called] “married to Yahweh”. It will be called that because Yahweh will be delighted with you, [and it will be as though] you are his bride [MET].
5 Јер као што се момак жени девојком, тако ће се синови твоји оженити тобом; и како се радује женик невести, тако ће се теби радовати Бог твој.
You people will live in all the country of Judah like [SIM] a young man lives with his bride. And our God will be happy that you [belong to] him like [SIM] a bridegroom is happy that his bride [belongs to him].
6 На зидовима твојим, Јерусалиме, поставих стражаре, који неће умукнути никада, ни дању ни ноћу. Који помињете Господа, немојте ћутати.
[You people of] Jerusalem, I have placed watchmen on your walls; they will [LIT] earnestly pray to Yahweh day and night. You watchmen, you must not stop [praying] [and] reminding Yahweh [about what he has promised to do]!
7 И не дајте да се умукне о Њему докле не утврди и учини Јерусалим славом на земљи.
And tell Yahweh that he should not rest until he causes Jerusalem to be [a city that is] famous throughout the world.
8 Закле се Господ десницом својом и крепком мишицом својом: нећу више дати жито твоје непријатељима твојим да једу, нити ће туђини пити вино твоје, око кога си се трудио;
Yahweh has raised his right hand to solemnly promise [to the people of Jerusalem], “I will use my power [MTY] and never again allow your enemies to defeat you; [soldiers from other nations will never come again] to take away your grain and the wine that you worked hard [to produce].
9 Него који га жању, они ће га јести и хвалити Господа, и који га беру они ће га пити у тремовима светиње моје.
You yourselves grew the grain, and you will be the ones who will praise [me], Yahweh, while you eat [the bread made from] that grain. Inside the courtyards of my temple you yourselves will drink the wine made from the grapes [that you harvested].”
10 Прођите, прођите кроз врата, приправите пут народу; поравните, поравните пут, уклоните камење, подигните заставу народима.
Go out through the [city] gates! Prepare the highway on which people [will return from other countries]! Cause the road to become smooth; clear off [all] the stones; set up signal flags to help the people-groups to see [where the road to Jerusalem is].
11 Ево, Господ огласи до крајева земаљских; реците кћери сионској: ево, Спаситељ твој иде; ево, плата је Његова код Њега и дело Његово пред Њим.
This is the message that Yahweh has sent to [the people of] every nation: “Tell the people of Israel, ‘The one who will rescue/save you is coming! Look! He will be bringing to you (your reward/what you deserve [for the good things that you have done]); those whom he is setting free will be going ahead of him.’”
12 И они ће се прозвати народ свети, искупљеници Господњи; а ти ћеш се прозвати: тражени, град неостављени.
They will be called “Yahweh’s own people, the ones whom he rescued”. And Jerusalem will be known as the city that [Yahweh] loves, the city that is no [longer] abandoned.
