Isaiah 62

lema'an tsiyyon lo ekhesheh ulema'an yerushalai͏m lo eshqot ad-yetse khannogah tsidqah vishu'atah kelappid yivar

For the sake of Zion I will not be silent, For the sake of Jerusalem I will not be still, Till her victory emerge resplendent And her triumph like a flaming torch.

vera'u goyim tsidqekh vekhol-melakhim kevodekh veqora lakh shem khadash asher pi Adonai yiqqovennu

Nations shall see your victory, And every king your majesty; And you shall be called by a new name That GOD shall bestow.

vehayit ateret tiferet beyad-Adonai (vtsnvf) [utsenif] melukhah bekhaf-elohayikh

You shall be a glorious crown In the hand of GOD, And a royal diadem In the palm of your God.

lo-ye'amer lakh od azuvah ule'artsekh lo-ye'amer od shemamah ki lakh yiqqare kheftsi-vah ule'artsekh be'ulah ki-khafets Adonai bakh ve'artsekh tibba'el

Nevermore shall you be called “Forsaken,” Nor shall your land be called “Desolate”; But you shall be called “I delight in her,” And your land “Espoused.” For GOD takes delight in you, And your land shall be espoused.

ki-yival bakhur betulah yivalukh banayikh umesos khatan al-kallah yasis alayikh elohayikh

As a youth espouses a maiden, Your sons shall espouse you; And as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, So will your God rejoice over you.

al-khomotayikh yerushalai͏m hifqadti shomerim kol-hayyom vekhol-hallaylah tamid lo yekheshu hammazkirim et-Adonai al-domi lakhem

Upon your walls, O Jerusalem, I have set sentries, Who shall never be silent By day or by night. O you, the ETERNAL One’s remembrancers, Take no rest

ve'al-tittenu domi lo ad-yekhonen ve'ad-yasim et-yerushalai͏m tehillah ba'arets

And give no rest to [God], Until Jerusalem is established And she is made renowned on earth.

nishba Adonai bimino uvizroa uzzo im-etten et-deganekh od ma'akhal le'oyevayikh ve'im-yishtu vene-nekhar tiroshekh asher yaga'at bo

GOD has sworn with the right hand, With a mighty arm: Nevermore will I give your new grain To your enemies for food, Nor shall foreigners drink the new wine For which you have labored.

ki me'asfayw yokheluhu vehillu et-Adonai umeqabbetsayw yishtuhu bekhatsrot qodshi

But those who harvest it shall eat it And give praise to GOD; And those who gather it shall drink it In My sacred courts.

ivru ivru bashe'arim pannu derekh ha'am sollu sollu hamesillah saqqelu me'even harimu nes al-ha'ammim

Pass through, pass through the gates! Clear the road for the people; Build up, build up the highway, Remove the rocks! Raise an ensign over the peoples!

hinneh Adonai hishmia el-qetseh ha'arets imru levat-tsiyyon hinneh yishekh ba hinneh sekharo itto ufe'ullato lefanayw

See, GOD has proclaimed To the end of the earth: Announce to Fair Zion, Your Deliverer is coming! See, [God] has brought along the reward, The recompense is in view.

veqare'u lahem am-haqqodesh ge'ule Adonai velakh yiqqare derushah ir lo ne'ezavah

And they shall be called, “The Holy People, GOD’s Redeemed,” And you shall be called, “Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken.”
