1Por amor de Sión no guardaré silencio, Por amor de Jerusalem no descansaré, Hasta que rompa la aurora de su justicia, Y arda la antorcha de su salvación.2Entonces las naciones verán tu justicia, Y todos los reyes, tu gloria. Y te será dado un nombre nuevo, Que la boca de YHVH pronunciará.3Serás corona fúlgida en la mano de YHVH, Y diadema real en la palma de tu Dios.4Nunca más serás llamada la Desamparada, Ni tu tierra, la Desolada, Sino que serás llamada Hefzi-bá, y tu país, Beula, Porque el amor de YHVH estará contigo Y tu tierra tendrá marido,5Pues como el joven se desposa con su virgen, Así tu Arquitecto se desposará contigo, Y como el novio se goza sobre la novia, Así tu Dios se regocijará en ti.6¡Oh Jerusalem, sobre tus muros he emplazado centinelas! Nunca se descuidarán, ni de día ni de noche. Los que invocáis a YHVH no os deis descanso;7No le deis descanso hasta que la establezca, Hasta que haga de Jerusalem la admiración de la tierra.8YHVH lo ha jurado con su diestra y su brazo poderoso: Ya no entregaré tu trigo por comida a tus enemigos, Ni los extranjeros se beberán más el vino por el cual tú trabajaste.9Los que lo cosechan lo comerán, Y alabarán a YHVH, Los que lo vendimian lo beberán en los atrios de mi Santuario.10¡Pasad, pasad por las puertas! ¡Despejad el camino al pueblo! ¡Allanad, allanad la calzada, y limpiadla de piedras! ¡Alzad pendón a los pueblos!11YHVH envía un pregón hasta el confín de la tierra: Decid a la hija de Sión: ¡He aquí tu Salvador viene! ¡Mirad, el premio de su victoria lo acompaña, Y su recompensa lo precede!12Entonces los llamarán Pueblo Santo, Redimidos de YHVH, Y a ti te llamarán la Deseada, Ciudad no desamparada.
1For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not be quiet, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a burning torch. (Pr 4:18; Is 62:6)2The nations shall see your righteousness, and all the kings your glory, and you shall be called by a new name that the mouth of the LORD will give. (Sal 98:2; Is 60:3; Is 60:14; Ap 2:17; Ap 3:12)3You shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God. (Zac 9:16)4You shall no more be termed Forsaken,[1] and your land shall no more be termed Desolate,[2] but you shall be called My Delight Is in Her,[3] and your land Married;[4] for the LORD delights in you, and your land shall be married. (Is 2:1; Is 49:14; Is 54:1; Is 54:7; Is 60:15; Os 1:10; Mal 3:12; 1 P 2:10)5For as a young man marries a young woman, so shall your sons marry you, and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you. (Is 51:18; Is 65:19)6On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have set watchmen; all the day and all the night they shall never be silent. You who put the LORD in remembrance, take no rest, (Is 52:8; Is 56:10)7and give him no rest until he establishes Jerusalem and makes it a praise in the earth. (Is 60:18; Is 61:11; Sof 3:20)8The LORD has sworn by his right hand and by his mighty arm: “I will not again give your grain to be food for your enemies, and foreigners shall not drink your wine for which you have labored; (Dt 28:33; Is 65:21; Is 65:22; Jer 5:17; Heb 6:13)9but those who garner it shall eat it and praise the LORD, and those who gather it shall drink it in the courts of my sanctuary.”[5] (Dt 12:12; Dt 14:23; Dt 14:26)10Go through, go through the gates; prepare the way for the people; build up, build up the highway; clear it of stones; lift up a signal over the peoples. (Is 11:10; Is 40:3; Is 49:22; Is 57:14)11Behold, the LORD has proclaimed to the end of the earth: Say to the daughter of Zion, “Behold, your salvation comes; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.” (Is 40:10; Zac 9:9; Mt 21:5; Jn 12:15)12And they shall be called The Holy People, The Redeemed of the LORD; and you shall be called Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken. (Is 61:4; Is 61:6; Is 62:4)
