1Put off, O Jerusalem, the garment of thy mourning, and affliction: and put on the beauty, and honour of that everlasting glory which thou hast from God.
1ΕΚΔΥΣΑΙ, Ἱερουσαλήμ, τὴν στολὴν τοῦ πένθους καὶ τῆς κακώσεώς σου καὶ ἔνδυσαι τὴν εὐπρέπειαν τῆς παρὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ δόξης εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.
2God will clothe thee with the double garment of justice, and will set a crown on thy head of everlasting honour.
2περιβαλοῦ τὴν διπλοΐδα τῆς παρὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ δικαιοσύνης, ἐπίθου τὴν μίτραν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλήν σου τῆς δόξης τοῦ αἰωνίου.
3For God will shew his brightness in thee, to every one under heaven.
3ὁ γὰρ Θεὸς δείξει τῇ ὑπ᾿ οὐρανὸν πάσῃ τὴν σὴν λαμπρότητα.
4For thy name shall be named to thee by God for ever: the peace of justice, and honour of piety.
4κληθήσεται γάρ σου τὸ ὄνομα παρὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα· Εἰρήνη δικαιοσύνης καὶ δόξα θεοσεβείας.
5Arise, O Jerusalem, and stand on high: and look about towards the east, and behold thy children gathered together from the rising to the setting sun, by the word of the Holy One rejoicing in the remembrance of God.
5Ἀνάστηθι, Ἱερουσαλήμ, καὶ στῆθι ἐπὶ τοῦ ὑψηλοῦ καὶ περίβλεψαι πρὸς ἀνατολὰς καὶ ἴδε συνηγμένα τὰ τέκνα σου ἀπὸ ἡλίου δυσμῶν ἕως ἀνατολῶν τῷ ρήματι τοῦ ἁγίου χαίροντας τῇ τοῦ Θεοῦ μνείᾳ.
6For they went out from thee on foot, led by the enemies: but the Lord will bring them to thee exalted with honour as children of the kingdom.
6ἐξῆλθον γὰρ παρὰ σοῦ πεζοὶ ἀγόμενοι ὑπὸ ἐχθρῶν, εἰσάγει δὲ αὐτοὺς ὁ Θεὸς πρὸς σὲ αἰρομένους μετὰ δόξης ὡς θρόνον βασιλείας.
7For God hath appointed to bring down every high mountain, and the everlasting rocks, and to fill up the valleys to make them even with the ground: that Israel may walk diligently to the honour of God.
7συνέταξε γὰρ ὁ Θεὸς ταπεινοῦσθαι πᾶν ὄρος ὑψηλὸν καὶ θῖνας ἀεννάους καὶ φάραγγας πληροῦσθαι εἰς ὁμαλισμὸν τῆς γῆς, ἵνα βαδίσῃ Ἰσραὴλ ἀσφαλῶς τῇ τοῦ Θεοῦ δόξῃ·
8Moreover the woods, and every sweet-smelling tree have overshadowed Israel by the commandment of God.
8ἐσκίασαν δὲ καὶ οἱ δρυμοὶ καὶ πᾶν ξύλον εὐωδίας τῷ Ἰσραὴλ προστάγματι τοῦ Θεοῦ·
9For God will bring Israel with joy in the light of his majesty, with mercy, and justice, that cometh from him.
9ἡγήσεται γὰρ ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραὴλ μετ᾿ εὐφροσύνης τῷ φωτὶ τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ σὺν ἐλεημοσύνῃ καὶ δικαιοσύνῃ τῇ παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
