52 ¶ Leve non, mòn Siyon! Leve non! Mete kouraj ou sou ou! Mete pi bèl rad ou sou ou, ou menm Jerizalèm, lavil Bondye a! Paske moun lòt nasyon yo, ki pa pote mak kontra Bondye a, ki pa nan kondisyon pou sèvi Bondye, p'ap janm mete pye lakay ou ankò.

Ou menm lavil Jerizalèm ki nan prizon, souke pousyè ki sou ou, leve atè a, chita sou fòtèy ou! Wete chenn yo te pase nan kou ou yo, ou menm mòn Siyon ki te nan prizon!

Men sa Seyè a di pèp li a. -Yo pa t' bay lajan pou achte nou lè nou te tounen esklav. Yo p'ap bay lajan non plis pou delivre nou lè y'a lage nou.

Men sa Seyè a, Bondye a, di: -Nan tan lontan, pèp mwen an te desann al rete nan peyi Lejip. Apre sa, Lasiri fè yo pase kont mizè yo pou anyen.

Koulye a, sa pou m' fè la a? Se Seyè a menm k'ap di sa. Yo pran pèp mwen an, yo depòte yo pou anyen. Moun k'ap kraze yo a ap pale fò, y'ap fè grandizè. Se Seyè a menm ki di sa. Epi tout lajounen, san rete y'ap trennen non m' nan labou.

Men jou sa a, pèp mwen an va rekonèt se mwen menm Bondye, ki pale ak nou! Men mwen!

¶ Ala bèl sa bèl lè ou wè sou mòn yo mesaje a k'ap kouri pote bon nouvèl k'ap bay kè poze a! L'ap fè konnen delivrans Bondye a. L'ap di moun Siyon yo: Se Bondye ou la k'ap gouvènen!

Faksyonnè ou yo ap rele. Y'ap rele ansanm tèlman yo kontan. Y'ap wè, se ak pwòp je yo y'a wè Seyè a k'ap tounen sou mòn Siyon an!

Pete rele, fè fèt ansanm, nou menm vye miray mazi lavil Jerizalèm yo! Paske Seyè a bay pèp li a kouraj ankò, li delivre lavil Jerizalèm.

10 Seyè a fè tout nasyon yo wè fòs kouraj li ki apa nèt la. Toupatou sou latè yo wè jan Bondye nou an ap delivre pèp li a.

11 Wete kò nou nan lavil Babilòn! Wete kò nou! Pati ale! Pa manyen anyen nou pa dwe manyen! Wete kò nou nan mitan lavil la. Mete nou nan kondisyon pou nou fè sèvis pou Bondye, nou menm k'ap pote veso ki apa pou sèvis Seyè a.

12 Fwa sa a, nou pa bezwen prese kouri ale. Nou p'ap fè tankou moun k'ap kouri chape poul yo. Paske Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ap pran devan nou. Se li menm tou, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, k'ap mache dèyè pou pwoteje nou.

13 ¶ Seyè a di: -Men li, sèvitè m' lan va wè tout travay li ap mache byen! L'a vin grannèg. Moun va konsidere l' anpil. Y'a pote l' anlè!

14 Menm jan anpil moun te pran sezisman lè yo te wè l', sitèlman li te defigire, sitèlman figi l' pa t' sanble menm ak figi moun,

15 konsa tou, anpil nasyon va kontan lè y'a wè l' fwa sa a. Wa yo va rete bouch be devan li sitèlman y'a sezi. Paske y'a wè bagay moun pa t' janm rakonte yo anvan sa, y'a konprann bagay yo pa t' janm tande anvan.

52 Awake, awake,(A) Zion,
    clothe yourself with strength!(B)
Put on your garments of splendor,(C)
    Jerusalem, the holy city.(D)
The uncircumcised(E) and defiled(F)
    will not enter you again.(G)
Shake off your dust;(H)
    rise up,(I) sit enthroned, Jerusalem.
Free yourself from the chains on your neck,(J)
    Daughter Zion,(K) now a captive.

For this is what the Lord says:

“You were sold for nothing,(L)
    and without money(M) you will be redeemed.(N)

For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

“At first my people went down to Egypt(O) to live;
    lately, Assyria(P) has oppressed them.

“And now what do I have here?” declares the Lord.

“For my people have been taken away for nothing,
    and those who rule them mock,[a]
declares the Lord.
“And all day long
    my name is constantly blasphemed.(Q)
Therefore my people will know(R) my name;(S)
    therefore in that day(T) they will know
that it is I who foretold(U) it.
    Yes, it is I.”

How beautiful on the mountains(V)
    are the feet of those who bring good news,(W)
who proclaim peace,(X)
    who bring good tidings,
    who proclaim salvation,
who say to Zion,
    “Your God reigns!”(Y)
Listen! Your watchmen(Z) lift up their voices;(AA)
    together they shout for joy.(AB)
When the Lord returns(AC) to Zion,(AD)
    they will see it with their own eyes.
Burst into songs of joy(AE) together,
    you ruins(AF) of Jerusalem,
for the Lord has comforted(AG) his people,
    he has redeemed Jerusalem.(AH)
10 The Lord will lay bare his holy arm(AI)
    in the sight of all the nations,(AJ)
and all the ends of the earth(AK) will see
    the salvation(AL) of our God.

11 Depart,(AM) depart, go out from there!
    Touch no unclean thing!(AN)
Come out from it and be pure,(AO)
    you who carry the articles(AP) of the Lord’s house.
12 But you will not leave in haste(AQ)
    or go in flight;
for the Lord will go before you,(AR)
    the God of Israel will be your rear guard.(AS)

The Suffering and Glory of the Servant

13 See, my servant(AT) will act wisely[b];
    he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.(AU)
14 Just as there were many who were appalled(AV) at him[c]
    his appearance was so disfigured(AW) beyond that of any human being
    and his form marred beyond human likeness(AX)
15 so he will sprinkle(AY) many nations,[d]
    and kings(AZ) will shut their mouths(BA) because of him.
For what they were not told, they will see,
    and what they have not heard, they will understand.(BB)
