< Isaiah 60 >

1 [You people of] Jerusalem [PRS], stand up! Yahweh has done glorious things for you, and he has acted powerfully for you; so show others that he is very great!
起よひかりを發て なんぢの光きたりヱホバの榮光なんぢのうへに照出たればなり
2 [But spiritual] darkness has covered [all the other people-groups on] the earth, complete darkness, but Yahweh will show you how great he is, and other people will also see it.
視よくらきは地をおほひ闇はもろもろの民をおほはん されど汝の上にはヱホバ照出たまひてその榮光なんぢのうへに顯はるべし
3 By seeing what he has done for you, [people of all] people-groups will see that he is very great, and kings will come to see the wonderful things that have happened to you.
もろもろの國はなんぢの光にゆき もろもろの王はてり出るなんぢが光輝にゆかん
4 [Yahweh says], “Look around and you will see the people who will be returning from (exile/countries to which they have been forced to go)! Your sons will come from distant countries; others will carry your [little] daughters home.
なんぢの目をあげて環視せ かれらは皆つどひて汝にきたり 汝の子輩はとほきより來り なんぢの女輩はいだかれて來らん
5 When you look at this happening, you will be very joyful [DOU], because people will bring valuable goods to you [from all around the world]. They will bring in ships valuable things from [many] nations.
そのときなんぢ視てよろこびの光をあらはし なんぢの心おどろきあやしみ且ひろらかになるべし そは海の富はうつりて汝につき もろもろの國の貨財はなんぢに來るべければなり
6 People will [also] bring valuable goods to you on herds/caravans of camels: Camels from the Midian and Ephah [areas of northern Arabia]. And from Sheba [in southern Arabia] they will come, bringing gold and frankincense; they will all come to praise [me], Yahweh.
おほくの駱駝ミデアンおよびエバのわかき駱駝なんぢの中にあまねくみち シバのもろもろの人こがね乳香をたづさへきたりてヱホバの譽をのべつたへん
7 They will bring flocks [of sheep and goats] from Kedar [in northern Arabia and give them] to you. [They will bring] [PRS] rams from Nebaioth for you [to sacrifice] on my altars, and I will accept them [happily]. [At that time] I will cause my temple to be very beautifully decorated.
ケダルのひつじの群はみな汝にあつまりきたり ネバヨテの牡羊はなんぢに事へ わが祭壇のうへにのぼりて受納られん 斯てわれわが榮光の家をかがやかすべし
8 And what are those things that are moving swiftly like [SIM] clouds? They resemble [SIM] doves [returning] to their nests.
雲のごとくにとび鳩のその窠にとびかへるが如くしてきたる者はたれぞ
9 But they are really ships from Tarshish that are bringing your people back here. When your people come, they will bring with them [all] the valuable possessions that they have acquired, and [they will do that] to honor [me], Yahweh, your God, the Holy One of Israel, because I will have greatly honored you.
もろもろの島はわれを俟望み タルシシのふねは首先になんぢの子輩をとほきより載きたり 並かれらの金銀をともにのせきたりてなんぢの神ヱホバの名にささげ イスラエルの聖者にささげん ヱホバなんぢを輝かせたまひたればなり
10 Foreigners will [come and] rebuild the walls of your [cities], and their kings will serve/help you. Although I punished you because I was angry with you, these things will happen now because I will act mercifully toward you because I am kind.
異邦人はなんぢの石垣をきづき かれらの王等はなんぢに事へん そは我いかりて汝をうちしかどまた惠をもて汝を憐みたればなり
11 The gates of your [cities] will be open during the day and [also] during the night, in order that people will be able to bring into your cities valuable things from [many] countries, with their kings being led to you in the processions.
なんぢの門はつねに開きて夜も日もとざすことなし こは人もろもろの國の貨財をなんぢに携へきたり その王等をひきゐ來らんがためなり
12 And the kingdoms and nations whose [people] refuse to allow you to rule them will be completely destroyed [DOU].
なんぢに事へざる國と民とはほろび そのくにぐには全くあれすたるべし
13 The glorious/beautiful things in Lebanon will be brought to you— [lumber from] cypress [trees] and fir [trees] and pine [trees]— to be used to make my temple beautiful. When that is done, my temple [MTY] will [truly] be glorious!
レバノンの榮はなんぢにきたり 松 杉 黄楊はみな共にきたりて我が聖所をかがやかさん われ亦わが足をおく所をたふとくすべし
14 The descendants of those who (oppressed you/treated you cruelly) will come and bow down to you; those who despised you will prostrate themselves in front of your feet. They will say that your city on Zion Hill is the City of Yahweh, where the Holy One of Israel lives.
汝を苦しめたるものの子輩はかがみて汝にきたり 汝をさげしめたる者はことごとくなんぢの足下にふし 斯て汝をヱホバの都イスラエルの聖者のシオンととなへん
15 Previously everyone hated you and ignored you, but now your [city] will be majestic/honored forever; and [I will cause you to be] joyful forever.
なんぢ前にはすてられ憎まれてその中をすぐる者もなかりしが 今はわれ汝をとこしへの華美よよの歡喜となさん
16 People of all nations and their kings will gladly bring [MET] their wealth to you. And [when that happens], you will realize that I truly am Yahweh, the one who saves you and rescues you [from your enemies], and that I am the mighty one to whom you Israeli people belong.
なんぢ亦もろもろの國の乳をすひ王たちの乳房をすひ 而して我ヱホバなんぢの救主なんぢの贖主ヤコブの全能者なるを知るべし
17 Instead of [metals that are not valuable, like] bronze and iron, I will bring to you silver and gold. Instead of wood and stones, I will bring you bronze and iron [for your buildings]. There will be peace in your country, and your rulers will do what is fair/just.
われ黄金をたづさへきたりて赤銅にかへ 白銀をたづさへきたりて鐵にかへ 赤銅を木にかへ鐵を石にかへ なんぢの施政者をおだやかにし なんぢを役するものを義うせん
18 People in your country will no longer act violently, and people will no longer destroy your land and cause it to become desolate/ruined. The people in the city will be safe, and everyone there will praise me [MTY].
強暴のこと再びなんぢの地にきこえず 殘害と敗壞とはふたたびなんぢの境にきこえず 汝その石垣をすくひととなへ その門を譽ととなへん
19 And you will no longer need the sun and moon to give you light, because [I], Yahweh, will give you more light [than the sun and moon]; I will be a glorious light for you forever.
晝は日ふたたびなんぢの光とならず 月もまた輝きてなんぢを照さず ヱホバ永遠になんぢの光となり なんぢの神はなんぢの榮となり給はん
20 [It will seem as though] the sun and moon will always be shining [LIT], because [I], Yahweh, will be an everlasting light for you. You will never again be sad [because of things that happen to you].
なんぢの日はふたたび落ず なんぢの月はかくることなかるべし そはヱホバ永遠になんぢの光となり 汝のかなしみの日畢るべければなり
21 Your people will all be righteous, and they will occupy the land forever, because I myself have put you there [like people plant trees] [MET] in order that you will show others that I am very great.
汝の民はことごとく義者となりてとこしへに地を嗣ん かれはわが植たる樹株わが手の工わが榮光をあらはす者となるべし
22 At that time, the [groups that are] very small now will become [very large] clans, and small clans will become great nations. [All those things will happen because], I, Yahweh, will cause them to happen at the right time.”
その小きものは千となり その弱きものは強國となるべし われヱホバその時いたらば速かにこの事をなさん
