1 Arise, 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 For behold darkness shall cover the earth, and a mist the people: but the Lord shall arise 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 the Gentiles shall walk in thy light, and kings in the brightness of thy rising.
3 Y andarán las gentes á tu luz, y los reyes al resplandor de tu nacimiento.
4 Lift up thy eyes round about, and see: all these are gathered together, they are come to thee: thy sons shall come from afar, and thy daughters shall rise up at thy side.
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 abound, and thy heart shall wonder and be enlarged, when the multitude of the sea shall be converted to thee, the. strength of the Gentiles 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 The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Madian and Epha: all they from Saba shall come, bringing gold and frankincense: and shewing forth praise to 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 All the flocks of Cedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nabaioth shall minister to thee: they shall be offered upon my acceptable altar, and I will glorify the house of my majesty.
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 to their windows?
8 ¿Quiénes son estos que vuelan como nubes, y como palomas á sus ventanas?
9 For, the islands wait for me, and the ships of the sea in the beginning: that I may bring thy sons from afar: their silver, and their gold with them, to the name of the Lord thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath glorified thee.
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 the children of strangers shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister to thee: for in my wrath have I struck thee, and in my reconciliation have I had mercy upon 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 open continually: they shall not be shut day nor night, that the strength of the Gentiles may be brought to thee, and their kings may be brought.
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 nation and the kingdom that will not serve thee, shall perish: and the Gentiles shall be wasted with desolation.
12 Porque la gente ó el reino que no te sirviere, perecerá; y del todo serán asoladas.
13 The glory of Libanus shall come to thee, the Ar tree, and the box tree, and the pine tree together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary: and I will glorify the place of my feet.
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 children of them that afflict thee, shall come bowing down to thee, and all that slandered thee shall worship the steps of thy feet, and shall call thee the city of the Lord, the Sion 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 wast forsaken, and hated, and there was none that passed through thee, I will make thee to be an everlasting glory, a joy unto generation and generation:
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 thou shalt be nursed with the breasts of kings: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord thy Saviour, and thy Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
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 For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver: and for wood brass, and for stones iron: and I will make thy visitation peace, and thy overseers justice.
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 Iniquity shall no more be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction in thy borders, and salvation shall possess thy walls, and praise thy gates.
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 Thou shalt no more have the sun for thy light by day, neither shall the brightness of the moon enlighten thee: but the Lord shall be unto thee for an everlasting light, and thy God for 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 Thy sun shall go down no more, and thy moon shall not decrease: for the Lord shall be unto thee for an everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.
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 And thy people shall be all just, they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hand to glorify me.
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 least shall become a thousand, and a little one a most strong nation: I the Lord will suddenly do this thing in its 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.
