Aisaia 29
1 Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade, amo fedege agoane Gode Ea ‘oloda’ amoga musa: Da: ibidi da fi, amo da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Ode afadafa o aduna amoga ilia da lolo nabe amola hahawane gilisisu hamonanu,
[This is a message from Yahweh: ] Terrible things will happen to Jerusalem, the city where [King] David lived. You people continue to celebrate your festivals each year.
2 amasea, amo moilai bai bagade (Gode Ea ‘oloda’ ilia da sia: sa) amo Gode da gugunufinisimu. Disu amola didigia: su nabimu, amola moilai bai bagade huluane da ‘oloda’ amo maga: mega dedeboi dagoi agoane ba: mu.
But I will cause you to experience a great disaster, [and when that happens], people will weep and lament [very much]. Your city will become like [MET] an altar [to me] [where people are burned as sacrifices].
3 Gode da Yelusaleme amo sisiga: le, doagala: mu.
I will cause your enemies [to come to your city]; they will surround it by [building] towers and putting in place other things with which to attack you.
4 Yelusaleme da bogoi a: silibu osobo hagudu esala, sia: mu logo hogoi helelala, amo defele agoai ba: mu.
Then you will talk [as though you were] buried deep in the ground [DOU]; it will sound like someone whispering from under the ground, like [SIM] a ghost speaking from a grave.
5 Yelusaleme fi! Ga fi ilia da dilima doagala: sea, da osobo su defele foga mini asi dagoi ba: mu. Amola ilia gasa bagade nimi dadi gagui gilisisu, da bioi gisi defele foga mini asi agoane ba: mu.
But, suddenly your enemies will be blown away like dust; their armies will disappear like [SIM] chaff that is blown away [by the wind]. [It will happen] very suddenly.
6 Hedolowane, eso amoga dilia hame dawa: , Hina Gode Bagadedafa da gugelebe isu bagade, amola bebeda: nima, amola fo bagade, amola lalu bagade osobo bagadega iasili, dili gaga: mu.
The Commander of the armies of angels will come [to help you] with thunder and an earthquake and a very loud noise, with a strong wind and a big storm and a fire that will burn up everything.
7 Amasea, fifi asi gala ilia dadi gagui gilisisu amo da Gode Ea ‘oloda’ moilai bai bagadega doagala: lebe, ilia amola ilia gegesu liligi amola liligi huluane da simasia ba: su defele, wadela: lesili, alalolesimu.
[Then] the armies of all the nations that will be attacking Jerusalem will quickly disappear like a dream in the night [DOU]. Those who will be attacking Jerusalem will suddenly vanish/disappear.
8 Fifi asi gala amo da Yelusaleme doagala: musa: gilisibi, amo dunu da bogomuwane ha: i e da simasia ba: sea, ha: i manu bagade naha, be nedigili bu ha: i bagade ba: sa, agoane ba: mu. O ilia da dunu hano hanaiga bogogia: be agoai gala, e da simasia hano nabe ba: sa, be nedigili ea da: gisisu da bu hafoga: i ba: sa, agoane ba: mu.
People who are asleep dream about eating food, [but] when they wake up, they are still hungry. People who are thirsty dream about drinking something, [but] when they wake up they are still thirsty. It will be like that when your enemies come to attack Zion Hill; [they will dream about conquering you, but when they wake up, ] [they will realize that they have not succeeded].
9 Defea! Dilia mae dawa: le, gagaoui agoane hamoma! Dilia si da wadela: le dialumu da defea. Dilia adini maedafa maini, feloale masa!
You [people of Jerusalem], be amazed and surprised [about this] [IRO]! Do not believe [what I have said] [SAR]! And continue to be blind [IRO] [about what Yahweh is doing]. You are stupid, but it is not because you have drunk a lot of wine. You stagger, but not from drinking alcoholic drinks.
10 Hina Gode da dilia bagadewane golama: ne hamoi dagoi. Balofede dunu da eno dunu ilia si agoane esalumu da defea galu. Be Gode da ilia mae ba: ma: ne, si dedebole lala: gi dagoi.
Because Yahweh has prevented the prophets [DOU] from understanding [and telling you his messages], [it is as though] he has caused you to be fast/deeply asleep.
11 Gode da ba: la: lusu ba: su huluane ea bai, dilima wamolegemu. Amo da meloa bione, ga: si dagoi agoane ba: mu. Dilia da amo meloa idisu dawa: lai dunuma e idima: ne gaguli ahoasea, e da amo da hamedei sia: mu. Bai meloa bioi da gobelega: i dagoi.
[Yahweh gave me] this vision; [but] for you, it is only words on a scroll that is sealed shut. If you give it to those who can read [and request that they read it], they will say, “We cannot read it because the scroll is sealed.”
12 Be amo idimusa: dilia idisu hame dawa: lai dunu amoma iasea, e amola da idimu hamedei sia: mu. Bai e da idisu hame dawa: , e da sia: mu.
When you give it to [others] who cannot read, they will say, “[We cannot read it because] we do not know how to read.”
13 Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Amo dunu ilia da Nama nodone sia: ne gadosa, ilisu da sia: sa. Be ilia sia: da hamedei liligi amola ilia dogo da Nama gadenene hame. Ilia sia: ne gadosu hou da osobo bagade dunu ilia sema amola ilia hou fawane, liligi ilia osobo bagade asigi dawa: su amoga sia: sa sisa: lalusu dawa:
[So] the Lord says, “These people say that they belong to me. They honor me by what they say [MTY], but they do not think [IDM] about what I [desire]. When they worship me, all they do is recite rules that people have made and that they have memorized.
14 Amaiba: le, na da hedolowane ili fananu, fananu, ilia da fofagadigimu. Nowa da bagade dawa: su dunu ilisu dawa: sa, ilia da gagaoui dunu agoane ba: mu. Amola ilia bagade dawa: su hou da hamedei liligi agoane ba: mu.
Therefore, again I will do something to amaze these people; I will perform many miracles. And [I will show that] the people [who tell others that they] are wise are not really wise, and [I will show that] the people [who tell others that they] are intelligent are not really intelligent.
15 Nowa da ilia ilegesu amo Hina Godema wamolegemusa: dawa: sa, da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Ilia da fa: no hamomu hou wamowane ilegesa. Amola eno dunu huluane da ilia hou hame dawa: mu, ilia agoane dawa: sa.
Terrible things will happen to those who try to conceal from me, Yahweh, the [evil] things that they plan to do; they do those things in the darkness and they think, ‘Yahweh certainly cannot [RHQ] see us; he cannot [RHQ] know what we are doing!’
16 Ilia da hou huluane mogo bugisa. Nowa ea hou da baligisala: ? Osoboga hamoi ofodo hahamosu dunu o osobola: ? Liligi amo dunu ea hamoi, da ea hahamosu dunuma agoane sia: ma: bela: ?, “Di da na hame hahamoi.” o “Di da hahamosu hou hame dawa: ,” amo sia: mu da defeala: ? Hame mabu!
They are extremely foolish! [They act as though] they were the potters and I was the clay! Something that was created should certainly never [RHQ] say to the one who made it, ‘You did not make me!’ A jar should never say, ‘The potter who made me did not know what he was doing!’”
17 Musa: dunu ilia sia: i defele, “Fonobahadi aligili, iwila da ifabi agoane hamomu, amola ifabi da bu iwila hamoma: ne sinidigimu.”
Soon [the forests in] Lebanon will become fertile fields, and abundant crops will grow in those fields, and that will happen very soon.
18 Amo esoga, dunu afae da buga idisia, ge ga: i dunu ilia da nabimu. Amola si dofoi dunu musa: gasi ganodini gala, ilia si fadegale bu noga: le ba: mu.
At that time, deaf people will [be able to hear]; [they will be able to] hear when someone reads from a book; and blind people will [be able to see]; [they will be able to] see things when it is gloomy and [even] when it is dark.
19 Hame gagui dunu amola fonoboi dunu, ilia da Hina Gode Ea hahawane dogolegele hou iasu amo bu ba: mu.
Yahweh will enable humble people to be very joyful again. Poor people will rejoice about what the Holy One of Israel [has done].
20 Be nowa da eno dunuma banenesisa amola Godema higasa, amola wadela: i hamosu dunu huluanedafa, ilia da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu.
There will be no more people who ridicule [others] and no more arrogant people. And those who plan to do evil things will be executed.
21 Nowa da baligidu sia: sia: sea, amola wadela: i hamosu dunu se mae lama: ne fidisia amola moloi dunu ilia moloidafa fofada: su hou mae ba: ma: ne hamosea, Gode da amo huluane gugunufinisimu.
Those who testify falsely in order to persuade judges to punish innocent people will vanish/disappear. Similar things will happen to those who by lying in court [persuade judges to] make unjust decisions.
22 Amaiba: le Isala: ili fi ilia Hina Gode (amo da A: ibalaha: me bidi hamosu mae lama: ne gaga: i) E da amane sia: sa “Na fi dunu! Dilia da bu eno hame gogosiamu. Dilia da hobea bu hame gogosiabeba: le, dilia odagi da gasi agoane bu hame ba: mu.
That is why Yahweh, who rescued Abraham, says about the people of Israel, “My people will no longer be ashamed; no longer will they show on their faces that they are ashamed.
23 Dilia mano amo Na da dilima imunu, amo ba: sea, Na da Isala: ili hadigi Gode amo dilia da dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le, sia: mu. Dilia da Nama nodomu amola Naba: le nodone beda: mu.
When they see that I have blessed them by giving them many children and doing many other things for them, they will realize that I am the Holy One of Israel, and they will revere me, the God to whom they, the descendants of Jacob, belong.
24 Gagaoui dunu da dawa: lamu. Amola dunu da wali egane sia: daha da hahawane dawa: lamusa: hame hihimu.”
When that happens, those who have not been able to think well will think clearly, and those who complain [about what I am doing] will accept what I am teaching them.”
