Notes on this text (1)
- Same Septuagint text as Brenton, with modernised spelling.
1 Be enlightened, be enlightened, O Jerusalem, for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
1 LEVÁNTATE, resplandece; que ha venido tu lumbre, y la gloria de Jehová ha nacido sobre ti.
2 Behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and [there shall be] gross darkness on the nations: but the Lord shall appear upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
2 Porque he aquí que tinieblas cubrirán la tierra, y oscuridad los pueblos: mas sobre ti nacerá Jehová, y sobre ti será vista su gloria.
3 And kings shall walk in thy light, and nations in thy brightness.
3 Y andarán las gentes á tu luz, y los reyes al resplandor de tu nacimiento.
4 Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold thy children gathered: all thy sons have come from far, and thy daughters shall be borne on [men’s] shoulders.
4 Alza tus ojos en derredor, y mira: todos estos se han juntado, vinieron á ti: tus hijos vendrán de lejos, y tus hijas sobre el lado serán criadas.
5 Then shalt thou see, and fear, and be amazed in thy heart; for the wealth of the sea shall come round to thee, and of nations and peoples; and herds of camels shall come to thee,
5 Entonces verás y resplandecerás; y se maravillará y ensanchará tu corazón, que se haya vuelto á ti la multitud de la mar, [y] la fortaleza de las gentes haya venido á ti.
6 and the camels of Midian and Ephah shall cover thee: all from Sheba shall come bearing gold, and shall bring frankincense, and they shall publish the salvation of the Lord.
6 Multitud de camellos te cubrirá, dromedarios de Madián y de Epha; vendrán todos los de Seba; traerán oro é incienso, y publicarán alabanzas de Jehová.
7 And all the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered, and the rams of Nebaioth shall come; and acceptable sacrifices shall be offered on my altar, and my house of prayer shall be glorified.
7 Todo el ganado de Cedar será juntado para ti: carneros de Nebayoth te serán servidos: serán ofrecidos con agrado sobre mi altar, y glorificaré la casa de mi gloria.
8 Who are these [that] fly as clouds, and as doves with young ones to me?
8 ¿Quiénes son estos que vuelan como nubes, y como palomas á sus ventanas?
9 The isles have waited for me, and the ships of Tarshish among the first, to bring thy children from afar, and their silver and their gold with them, and [that] for the sake of the holy name of the Lord, and because the Holy One of Israel is glorified.
9 Ciertamente á mí esperarán las islas, y las naves de Tarsis desde el principio, para traer tus hijos de lejos, su plata y su oro con ellos, al nombre de Jehová tu Dios, y al Santo de Israel, que te ha glorificado.
10 And strangers shall build thy walls, and their kings shall wait upon thee: for by reason of my wrath I smote thee, and by reason of mercy I loved thee.
10 Y los hijos de los extranjeros edificarán tus muros, y sus reyes te servirán; porque en mi ira te herí, mas en mi buena voluntad tendré de ti misericordia.
11 And thy gates shall be opened continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; to bring in to thee the power of the Gentiles, and their kings as captives.
11 Tus puertas estarán de continuo abiertas; no se cerrarán de día ni de noche; para que sea traída á ti fortaleza de gentes, y sus reyes conducidos.
12 For the nations and the kings which will not serve thee shall perish; and those nations shall be made utterly desolate.
12 Porque la gente ó el reino que no te sirviere, perecerá; y del todo serán asoladas.
13 And the glory of Lebanon shall come to thee, with the cypress, and pine, and cedar together, to glorify my holy place.
13 La gloria del Líbano vendrá á ti, hayas, pinos, y bojes juntamente, para decorar el lugar de mi santuario; y yo honraré el lugar de mis pies.
14 And the sons of them that afflicted thee, and of them that provoked thee, shall come to thee in fear; and thou shalt be called Zion, the city of the Holy One of Israel.
14 Y vendrán á ti humillados los hijos de los que te afligieron, y á las pisadas de tus pies se encorvarán todos los que te escarnecían, y llamarte han Ciudad de Jehová, Sión del Santo de Israel.
15 Because thou hast become desolate and hated, and there was no helper, therefore I will make thee a perpetual gladness, a joy of many generations.
15 En lugar de que has sido desechada y aborrecida, y que no había quien por ti pasase, ponerte he en gloria perpetua, gozo de generación y generación.
16 And thou shalt suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt eat the wealth of kings: and shalt know that I am the Lord that saves thee and delivers thee, the Holy One of Israel.
16 Y mamarás la leche de las gentes, el pecho de los reyes mamarás; y conocerás que yo Jehová soy el Salvador tuyo, y Redentor tuyo, el Fuerte de Jacob.
17 And for brass I will bring thee gold, and for iron I will bring thee silver, and instead of wood I will bring thee brass, and instead of stones, iron; and I will make thy princes peaceable, and thine overseers righteous.
17 En vez de cobre traeré oro, y por hierro plata, y por madera metal, y en lugar de piedras hierro; y pondré paz [por] tu tributo, y justicia [por] tus exactores.
18 And injustice shall no more be heard in thy land, nor destruction nor misery in thy coasts; but thy walls shall be called Salvation, and thy gates Sculptured Work.
18 Nunca más se oirá en tu tierra violencia, destrucción ni quebrantamiento en tus términos; mas á tus muros llamarás Salud, y á tus puertas Alabanza.
19 And thou shalt no more have the sun for a light by day, nor shall the rising of the moon lighten thy night; but the Lord shall be thine everlasting light, and God thy glory.
19 El sol nunca más te servirá de luz para el día, ni el resplandor de la luna te alumbrará; sino que Jehová te será por luz perpetua, y el Dios tuyo por tu gloria.
20 For the sun shall no more set, nor shall the moon be eclipsed; for the Lord shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be completed.
20 No se pondrá jamás tu sol, ni menguará tu luna: porque te será Jehová por luz perpetua, y los días de tu luto serán acabados.
21 Thy people also shall be all righteous; they shall inherit the land forever, preserving that which they have planted, [even] the works of their hands, for glory.
21 Y tu pueblo, todos ellos serán justos, para siempre heredarán la tierra; renuevos de mi plantío, obra de mis manos, para glorificarme.
22 The little one shall become thousands, and the least a great nation; I the Lord will gather them in [due] time.
22 El pequeño será por mil, el menor, por gente fuerte. Yo Jehová á su tiempo haré que esto sea presto.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
And within a little while ye shall hear that excellent lesson which says, Shine, shine, O thou new Jerusalem; for thy light is come.
