< Isaiah 62 >

1 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].
Por amor de Sião me não calarei, e por amor de Jerusalém me não aquietarei; até que saia a sua justiça como um resplandor, e a sua salvação como uma tocha acesa
2 [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.
E as nações verão a tua justiça, e todos os reis a tua glória; e chamar-te-ão por um nome novo, que a boca do Senhor nomeará.
3 [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.
E serás uma coroa de glória na mão do Senhor, e um diadema real na mão do teu Deus.
4 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].
Nunca mais te chamarão: Desamparada, nem a tua terra nunca mais nomearão: Assolada; mas chamar-te-ão: O meu prazer está nela; e a tua terra: A casada; porque o Senhor se agrada de ti; e a tua terra se casará.
5 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].
Porque, como o mancebo se casa com a donzela, assim teus filhos se casarão contigo: e, como o noivo se alegra da noiva, assim se alegrará de ti o teu Deus.
6 [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]!
Ó Jerusalém, sobre os teus muros pus guardas, que todo o dia e toda a noite de contínuo se não calarão: ó vós, os que fazeis menção do Senhor, não haja silêncio em vós,
7 And tell Yahweh that he should not rest until he causes Jerusalem to be [a city that is] famous throughout the world.
Nem lhe deis a ele silêncio, até que confirme, e até que ponha a Jerusalém por louvor na terra.
8 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].
Jurou o Senhor pela sua mão direita, e pelo braço da sua força, que nunca mais darei o teu trigo por comida aos teus inimigos, nem os estranhos beberão o teu mosto, em que trabalhaste.
9 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].”
Porém os que o ajuntarem o comerão, e louvarão ao Senhor: e os que o colherem beberão nos átrios do meu santuário.
10 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].
Passai, passai pelas portas; preparai o caminho ao povo: aplainai, aplainai a estrada, limpai-a das pedras; arvorai a bandeira aos povos.
11 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.’”
Eis que o Senhor fez ouvir até às extremidades da terra: Dizei à filha de Sião: Eis que a tua salvação vem: eis que consigo o seu galardão, e a sua obra diante dele
12 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.
E chama-los-ão: Povo santo, remidos do Senhor; e tu serás chamada Buscada, a cidade não desamparada.
