1 Rise up, Jerusalem, and shine forth; thy dawn has come, breaks the glory of the Lord upon thee! 2 What though darkness envelop the earth, though all the nations lie in gloom? Upon thee the Lord shall dawn, over thee his splendour shall be revealed. 3 Those rays of thine shall light the Gentiles on their path; kings shall walk in the splendour of thy sunrise. 4 Lift up thy eyes and look about thee; who are these that come flocking to thee? Sons of thine, daughters of thine, come from far away, or rising up close at hand.[1] 5 Heart of thee shall overflow with wonder and gratitude, to see all the riches of ocean, all the treasure of the Gentiles pouring into thee! 6 A stream of camels thronging about thee, dromedaries from Madian and Epha, bringing all the men of Saba[2] with their gifts of gold and incense, their cry of praise to the Lord! 7 Into thee all the herds of Cedar shall be driven, the rams of Nabaioth shall be thy victims; gifts at my altar accepted, to make the fame of my temple more famous yet. 8 Who are these that come, swift as the cloud-wrack, as doves flying home to the dove-cot? 9 These, too, are thy sons; long since, the islands and the ocean-going ships have awaited my signal, when I would bring them home from far away, their silver and their gold with them, for the honour of the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, that has bestowed this glory on thee. |

Surge, illuminare, Jerusalem, quia venit lumen tuum,
et gloria Domini super te orta est. 2
Quia ecce tenebræ operient terram,
et caligo populos;
super te autem orietur Dominus,
et gloria ejus in te videbitur. 3
Et ambulabunt gentes in lumine tuo,
et reges in splendore ortus tui. 4
Leva in circuitu oculos tuos, et vide:
omnes isti congregati sunt, venerunt tibi;
filii tui de longe venient
et filiæ tuæ de latere surgent. 5
Tunc videbis, et afflues;
mirabitur et dilatabitur cor tuum:
quando conversa fuerit ad te multitudo maris;
fortitudo gentium venerit tibi. 6
Inundatio camelorum operiet te,
dromedarii Madian et Epha;
omnes de Saba venient,
aurum et thus deferentes,
et laudem Domino annuntiantes. 7
Omne pecus Cedar congregabitur tibi;
arietes Nabaioth ministrabunt tibi:
offerentur super placabili altari meo,
et domum majestatis meæ glorificabo. 8
Qui sunt isti qui ut nubes volant,
et quasi columbæ ad fenestras suas? 9
Me enim insulæ exspectant,
et naves maris in principio,
ut adducam filios tuos de longe;
argentum eorum, et aurum eorum cum eis,
nomini Domini Dei tui,
et Sancto Israël, quia glorificavit te. |
