< Isaya 62 >
1 Nokuda kweZioni handinganyarari, nokuda kweJerusarema handingarambi ndinyerere, kusvikira kururama kwake kwapenya samambakwedza, noruponeso rwake somwenje unopfuta.
For Zion's sake will I not hold My peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until her triumph go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a torch that burneth.
2 Ndudzi dzichaona kururama kwako, uye madzimambo ose achaona kubwinya kwako; iwe uchadaidzwa nezita idzva richataurwa nomuromo waJehovha.
And the nations shall see thy triumph, and all kings thy glory; and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall mark out.
3 Uchava korona yokubwinya muruoko rwaJehovha, ukomba hwoumambo muruoko rwaMwari wako.
Thou shalt also be a crown of beauty in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the open hand of thy God.
4 Havachazokutizve Musiyiwa, kana kutumidza nyika yako kuti Dongo. Asi uchatumidzwa kuti Hefizibha uye nyika yako ichanzi Bhiyura; nokuti Jehovha achakufarira, uye nyika yako icharoorwa.
Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken, neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate; but thou shalt be called, My delight is in her, and thy land, Espoused; for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be espoused.
5 Sejaya zvarinowana mhandara, saizvozvo vanakomana vako vachakuwana; sechikomba chinofarira mwenga, saizvozvo Mwari wako achafara pamusoro pako.
For as a young man espouseth a virgin, so shall thy sons espouse thee; and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.
6 Ndakagadza nharirire pamasvingo ako, iwe Jerusarema; havangambonyarari masikati kana usiku. Imi munodana kuna Jehovha, musazorora,
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 uye musamupa zororo kusvikira asimbisa Jerusarema, uye ariita rumbidzo yenyika.
And give Him no rest, till He establish, and till He make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.'
8 Jehovha akapika noruoko rwake rworudyi, noruoko rwake rune simba achiti, “Handichazopizve zviyo zvenyu sezvokudya kuvavengi venyu, uye vatorwa havachazonwizve waini itsva yamakatamburira;
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 food for thine enemies; and strangers shall not drink thy wine, for which thou hast laboured;
9 asi ivo vanokohwa ndivo vachadya uye vacharumbidza Jehovha, uyewo vaya vanounganidza mazimbiringa ndivo vachainwa mumavazhe eimba yangu tsvene.”
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 Pfuurai, pfuurai napamasuo! Gadzirirai vanhu nzira. Vakai, vakai mugwagwa mukuru! Bvisai mabwe. Simudzirai ndudzi mureza.
Go through, go through the gates, clear ye the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway, gather out the stones; lift up an ensign over the peoples.
11 Jehovha akaparidzira kumagumo enyika achiti, “Uti kuMwanasikana weZioni, ‘Tarira, Muponesi wako ouya! Tarira, mubayiro wake anawo, uye kuripira kwake kunomutevera.’”
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 recompense before Him.'
12 Vachanzi Vanhu Vatsvene, Vakadzikinurwa vaJehovha; uye iwe uchanzi Mutsvakwa, iro Guta Risina Kuzova Dongo.
And they shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of the LORD; and thou shalt be called Sought out, a city not forsaken.
