< Isaiah 60 >

1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
Surge illuminare Ierusalem: quia venit lumen tuum, et gloria Domini super te orta est.
2 For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the peoples: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
Quia ecce tenebrae operient terram, et caligo populos: super te autem orietur Dominus, et gloria eius in te videbitur.
3 And nations shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
Et ambulabunt Gentes in lumine tuo, et reges in splendore ortus tui.
4 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: they all gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be carried in the arms.
Leva in circuitu oculos tuos, et vide: omnes isti congregati sunt, venerunt tibi: filii tui de longe venient, et filiae tuae de latere surgent.
5 Then thou shalt see and be lightened, and thine heart shall tremble and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be turned unto thee, the wealth of the nations shall come unto thee.
Tunc videbis, et afflues, mirabitur et dilatabitur cor tuum quando conversa fuerit ad te multitudo maris, fortitudo Gentium venerit tibi:
6 The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; they all shall come from Sheba: they shall bring gold and frankincense, and shall proclaim the praises of the LORD.
Inundatio camelorum operiet te, dromedarii Madian et Epha: omnes de Saba venient, aurum et thus deferentes, et laudem Domino annunciantes.
7 All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory.
Omne pecus Cedar congregabitur tibi, arietes Nabaioth ministrabunt tibi: offerentur super placabili altari meo, et domum maiestatis meae glorificabo.
8 Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?
Qui sunt isti, qui ut nubes volant, et quasi columbae ad fenestras suas?
9 Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, for the name of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, because he hath glorified thee.
Me enim insulae expectant, et naves maris in principio ut adducam filios tuos de longe: argentum eorum, et aurum eorum cum eis nomini Domini Dei tui, et sancto Israel, qui glorificavit te.
10 And strangers shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favour have I had mercy on thee.
Et aedificabunt filii peregrinorum muros tuos, et reges eorum ministrabunt tibi: in indignatione enim mea percussi te: et in reconciliatione mea misertus sum tui.
11 Thy gates also shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the wealth of the nations; and their kings led [with them].
Et aperientur portae tuae iugiter: die ac nocte non claudentur, ut afferatur ad te fortitudo Gentium, et reges earum adducantur.
12 For that nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted.
Gens enim et regnum, quod non servierit tibi, peribit: et Gentes solitudine vastabuntur.
13 The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the fir tree, the pine, and the box tree together; to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
Gloria Libani ad te veniet, abies et buxus, et pinus simul ad ornandum locum sanctificationis meae, et locum pedum meorum glorificabo.
14 And the sons of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
Et venient ad te curvi filii eorum, qui humiliaverunt te, et adorabunt vestigia pedum tuorum omnes, qui detrahebant tibi, et vocabunt te Civitatem Domini, Sion sancti Israel.
15 Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man passed through thee, I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.
Pro eo quod fuisti derelicta, et odio habita, et non erat qui per te transiret, ponam te in superbiam saeculorum, gaudium in generatione et generationem:
16 Thou shalt also suck the milk of the nations, and shalt suck the breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I the LORD am thy saviour, and thy redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
et suges lac Gentium, et mamilla regum lactaberis: et scies quia ego Dominus salvans te, et redemptor tuus fortis Iacob.
17 For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron: I will also make thy officers peace, and thine exactors righteousness.
Pro aere afferam aurum, et pro ferro afferam argentum: et pro lignis aes, et pro lapidibus ferrum: et ponam visitationem tuam pacem, et praepositos tuos iustitiam.
18 Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, desolation nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise.
Non audietur ultra iniquitas in terra tua, vastitas et contritio in terminis tuis, et occupabit salus muros tuos, et portas tuas laudatio.
19 The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.
Non erit tibi amplius sol ad lucendum per diem, nec splendor lunae illuminabit te: sed erit tibi Dominus in lucem sempiternam, et Deus tuus in gloriam tuam.
20 Thy sun shall no more go down, neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.
Non occidet ultra sol tuus, et luna tua non minuetur: quia erit tibi Dominus in lucem sempiternam, et complebuntur dies luctus tui.
21 Thy people also shall be all righteous, they shall inherit the land for ever; the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.
Populus autem tuus omnes iusti, in perpetuum hereditabunt terram, germen plantationis meae, opus manus meae ad glorificandum.
22 The little one shall become a thousand, and the small one a strong nation: I the LORD will hasten it in its time.
Minimus erit in mille, et parvulus in gentem fortissimam: ego Dominus in tempore eius subito faciam istud.
