Jesaja 54
Swedish New Living Bible (Nya Levande Bibeln)
Israel ska byggas upp igen
54 Sjung av glädje, du kvinna som är barnlös! Stäm upp en glädjesång, Jerusalem, för hon som blev övergiven ska nu få fler barn än hon som har en man.
2 Bygg till ditt hus, så att du får större utrymme,
3 annars kommer din familj inte att få plats! Dina ättlingar ska ta städer i besittning som övergivits under landsflykten.
4 Var inte bekymrad! Du ska inte längre behöva skämmas. Du ska inte längre komma ihåg din dystra ungdom och sorgen över att vara änka.
5 Din Skapare ska bli din man. Herren, härskarornas Gud, är hans namn. Han är din befriare, den Helige i Israel, hela jordens Gud.
6 Herren ska komma tillbaka till dig igen, som om du varit en ung kvinna, övergiven av sin man.
7 Jag övergav dig under en kort tid, men nu ska jag i min stora barmhärtighet än en gång församla dig.
8 I ett ögonblicks vrede vände jag mig bort från dig, men med en evig kärlek ska jag nu förbarma mig över dig, säger Herren, din befriare.
9 På Noas tid svor jag att aldrig mer tillåta en sådan översvämning att komma över jorden och döda allt liv. Nu lovar jag att min vrede aldrig mer ska drabba dig.
10 Om så bergen rämnar och höjderna förflyttar sig, ska min kärlek ändå aldrig lämna dig. Mitt löfte om frid ska aldrig brytas, säger Herren, han som visar dig barmhärtighet.
11 Mitt stackars folk, som blivit så prövat! Jag ska än en gång bygga upp din grund med dyrbara juveler.
12 Tornen ska jag göra av rubiner och portar och murar av ädelstenar.
13 Alla dina invånare ska jag undervisa, och dina barn ska få leva i fred.
14 Du ska leva där rättfärdighet råder. Dina fiender ska inte komma i närheten av dig. Terror ska inte förekomma.
15 Om någon nation kommer emot dig, så är den inte sänd av mig för att straffa dig. Den ska bli besegrad, för jag står på din sida.
16 Jag har skapat smeden, som håller elden i smedjan vid liv och smider vapen. Jag ligger bakom de stora arméer, som har makt att förstöra och ödelägga.
17 Men på den dagen ska inget vapen som vänds mot dig ha någon framgång, och du ska få rätt mot alla som ljuger om dig. Detta är vad som väntar Herrens tjänare. Detta är den seger jag har för dig, säger Herren.

Sing, barren woman
54 Sing, barren woman who has borne no child;
break forth into singing and cry out,
you who were never in labor,
for the children of the wife who has been deserted will be more numerous than the children of the married, says the Lord.
2 Enlarge the site of your tent,
and stretch out the drapes of your dwellings;
don’t hold back.
Lengthen your tent ropes and strengthen your stakes.
3 To the right and to the left you will burst out,
and your children will possess the nations’ land
and settle their desolate cities.
4 Don’t fear,
because you won’t be ashamed;
don’t be dismayed,
because you won’t be disgraced.
You will forget the shame of your youth;
you’ll no longer remember the disgrace of your widowhood.
5 The one marrying you is the one who made you—
the Lord of heavenly forces is his name.
The one redeeming you is the holy one of Israel,
the one called the God of all the earth.
6 As an abandoned and dejected woman the Lord has summoned you;
as a young wife when she is rejected,
says your God.
7 For a brief moment I abandoned you,
but with great mercy I will bring you back.
8 In an outburst of rage,
I hid my face from you for a moment,
but with everlasting love I have consoled you,
says your redeemer, the Lord.
9 These are like the days[a] of Noah for me,
when I promised that Noah’s waters would never again cover the earth.
Likewise I promise not to rage against you or rebuke you.
10 The mountains may shift,
and the hills may be shaken,
but my faithful love won’t shift from you,
and my covenant of peace won’t be shaken,
says the Lord, the one who pities you.
11 Suffering one, storm-tossed, uncomforted,
look, I am setting your gemstones in silvery metal
and your foundations with sapphires.
12 I will make your towers of rubies,
and your gates of beryl,
and all your walls of precious jewels.
13 All your children will be disciples of the Lord—
I will make peace abound for your children.
14 You will be firmly founded in righteousness.
You will stay far from oppression because you won’t fear,
far from terror because it won’t come near you.
15 If anyone attacks you, it’s none of my doing.
Whoever attacks you will fall because of you.
16 Look, I myself created the metalworker who blows the fire of coal and who produces a tool for his work.
And I myself created the looter to destroy.
17 No weapon fashioned against you will succeed,
and you may condemn every tongue that disputes with you.
This is the heritage of the Lord’s servants,
whose righteousness comes from me, says the Lord.

The Future Glory of Zion
54 “Sing, barren woman,(A)
you who never bore a child;
burst into song, shout for joy,(B)
you who were never in labor;(C)
because more are the children(D) of the desolate(E) woman
than of her who has a husband,(F)”
says the Lord.
2 “Enlarge the place of your tent,(G)
stretch your tent curtains wide,
do not hold back;
lengthen your cords,
strengthen your stakes.(H)
3 For you will spread out to the right and to the left;
your descendants(I) will dispossess nations(J)
and settle in their desolate(K) cities.
4 “Do not be afraid;(L) you will not be put to shame.(M)
Do not fear disgrace;(N) you will not be humiliated.
You will forget the shame of your youth(O)
and remember no more the reproach(P) of your widowhood.(Q)
5 For your Maker(R) is your husband(S)—
the Lord Almighty is his name—
the Holy One(T) of Israel is your Redeemer;(U)
he is called the God of all the earth.(V)
6 The Lord will call you back(W)
as if you were a wife deserted(X) and distressed in spirit—
a wife who married young,(Y)
only to be rejected,” says your God.
7 “For a brief moment(Z) I abandoned(AA) you,
but with deep compassion(AB) I will bring you back.(AC)
8 In a surge of anger(AD)
I hid(AE) my face from you for a moment,
but with everlasting kindness(AF)
I will have compassion(AG) on you,”
says the Lord your Redeemer.(AH)
9 “To me this is like the days of Noah,
when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth.(AI)
So now I have sworn(AJ) not to be angry(AK) with you,
never to rebuke(AL) you again.
10 Though the mountains be shaken(AM)
and the hills be removed,
yet my unfailing love(AN) for you will not be shaken(AO)
nor my covenant(AP) of peace(AQ) be removed,”
says the Lord, who has compassion(AR) on you.
11 “Afflicted(AS) city, lashed by storms(AT) and not comforted,(AU)
I will rebuild you with stones of turquoise,[a](AV)
your foundations(AW) with lapis lazuli.(AX)
12 I will make your battlements of rubies,
your gates(AY) of sparkling jewels,
and all your walls of precious stones.
13 All your children will be taught by the Lord,(AZ)
and great will be their peace.(BA)
14 In righteousness(BB) you will be established:(BC)
Tyranny(BD) will be far from you;
you will have nothing to fear.(BE)
Terror(BF) will be far removed;
it will not come near you.
15 If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing;
whoever attacks you will surrender(BG) to you.
16 “See, it is I who created the blacksmith(BH)
who fans the coals into flame
and forges a weapon(BI) fit for its work.
And it is I who have created the destroyer(BJ) to wreak havoc;
17 no weapon forged against you will prevail,(BK)
and you will refute(BL) every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants(BM) of the Lord,
and this is their vindication(BN) from me,”
declares the Lord.
