< Aisaia 3 >

1 Ba: ma! Hina Gode, Hina Bagadedafa, da wali Yelusaleme fi amola Yuda soge fi amoga ilia gaga: su liligi, ilia ha: i manu amola ilia hano huluane amo samogemu.
The Commander of the armies of angels is about to take away from Jerusalem and [other places in] Judea everything that you depend on— all your food and water.
2 Ilia gasa bagade dunu, ilia dadi gagui dunu, ilia fofada: su dunu, ilia ba: la: lusu dunu, ilia eagene dunu,
He will take away your heroes and your [other] soldiers, your judges and your prophets, people who do rituals to find out what will happen in the future and the elders,
3 ilia dadi gagui ouligisu dunu, ilia eagene ouligisu dunu amola ilia wamuni dawa: su dunu amo huluane Hina Gode da samogemu.
army officers and [other] officials, advisors and skilled craftsmen and those who perform rituals to predict the future.
4 Hina Gode da amo dunu samogebeba: le, hame asigilai goi ilia da Yuda fi ouligimu.
He will appoint boys to be your leaders; your children will rule you.
5 Dunu huluane da enoma enoma ilima hame asigiba: le, hou noga: i hame hamomu. Goi amola ayeligi da ilia asigilai dunu ilima hame asigimu amola ilia sia: hame nabimu. Hamedei dunu da ilia ouligisu dunuma hame asigimu.
People will treat each other cruelly: people will fight against their neighbors. Young people will insult older people, and vulgar/dishonorable people will sneer at people who should be honored.
6 Eso da agoane misunu, fi dunu da ilia fi dunu afadafa ilegele, ema amane sia: mu, “Disu da abula ga: musa: gala. Amaiba: le, amo bidi hamosu esoga, di ninima bisiluama.”
At that time, someone will grab one of his brothers in his father’s house and say to him, “You have a coat, [which shows that you are respected]. [So] you be our leader! You rule this [city, which is now] a pile of ruins!”
7 Be e da bu adole imunu, “Na hame! Na da dili fidimu hamedei. Na amola da ha: i manu amola abula hame. Dilia da na dili ouligisu dunu mae hamoma!”
[But] his brother will reply, “[No], I cannot help you, [because] I do not have [any extra] food or clothes in this house. [So] do not appoint me to be your leader!”
8 Dafawane! Yelusaleme da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Yuda soge fi da mugululala. Ilia sia: amola hou huluane da Hina Godema ha lai fawane ba: sa. Ilia da dunu huluane ba: ma: ne, Godema gadesa.
Jerusalem and [the other towns in] Judah will be destroyed, because [everything] that the people do and say there opposes Yahweh, who is powerful and glorious, and they refuse to obey him. They rebel against him.
9 Gode da ilia afaemagasu hou hame gogolemu. Ilia da Sodame dunu ilia hou defele, wadela: i hou hame wamolegesa. Ilia da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Amola, ilisu hamobeba: le, amo se iasu ba: mu.
They even show on their faces that [they oppose Yahweh]. They are proud of their sins, like [the people of] Sodom were [long ago]; they do not try to hide their sins. [Because of their sins], terrible things will happen to them, [but] they will bring those disasters on themselves.
10 Moloidafa dunuma amane adoma. Ilia da hahawane ba: mu, amola hou huluane ili fidima: ne ba: mu. Ilia da noga: le hawa: hamobeba: le, bidi lale, hahawane esalumu.
[Yahweh told me to] tell the righteous people that good things will happen to them; they will enjoy the blessings that they will receive for their good deeds.
11 Be wadela: i hamosu dunu da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Ilia da eno dunuma se iasu amo defele se iasu ba: mu.
[But] terrible things will happen to wicked people; they will be (paid back/punished) for [the evil things that] [MTY] they have done.
12 Dunu ilia da muni bu baligiliwane lama: ne, muni iabe dunu da na fi dunu wadela: lesisa. Ilia da Na Fi dunuma bagade ogogosa. Na fi dunu! Dilia ouligisu dunu da dilima ogogolala. Amaiba: le, dilia da moloiwane masunu bagadewane gogolesa.
[Now], youths [who have become leaders] treat my people cruelly, and women rule over my people. My people, your leaders are misleading you; they are causing you to go down the wrong road [MET].
13 Hina Gode da Ea Fi dunu ilima fofada: musa: , momagele esala.
[It is as though] Yahweh has sat in his place in a courtroom and is ready to judge his people.
14 Hina Gode da Ea fi dunu ilia asigilai amola ouligisu dunu ilima fofada: musa: oule maha. E da ilima diwaneya udidisa, “Dilia da waini sagai wamolalusu. Dilia diasu da hame gagui dunu ilima wamolai liligiga nabai gala.
He will stand up to declare why the elders and rulers of his people should be punished: [he says], “The people of Israel are [like] [MET] a vineyard that I planted, but you have ruined it! Your houses are full of things that you have stolen from poor people.
15 Dilia da Na fi dunu goudane amola hame gagui dunu ilia liligi wamolamu da defea hame galu. Na, Baligili Bagade Hina Gode da sia: i dagoi.”
You should stop [RHQ] crushing my people! [It is as though] you are pushing the faces of poor people into the dirt!” [That is what] the Commander of the armies of angels says.
16 Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Ba: ma! Yelusaleme uda da gasa fi hou hamonana! Ilia da mi gaguia gadole, gasa fili lala. Ilia da dunu ilima hedesa. Ilia da hidasisisa, amola emobasalo da ilia emogulua amogai ga: ne genena: ganena: ia ahoa.
Yahweh says this: “The women of Jerusalem are haughty/proud; they walk around sticking their chins out, and flirting [with men] with their eyes. They walk with tiny steps with bracelets on their ankles that jingle.
17 Be Na da ilima se imunu. Na da ilia dialuma hinabo waga: ne, ilia da busa: gi gianai ba: mu.
So I, Yahweh, will cause sores to be on their heads, and I will cause those beautiful women in Jerusalem to become bald.”
18 Eso da misunu, amoga Hina Gode da Yelusaleme uda ilima ilia gasa fi liligi huluane samogemu. Ilia emobasalo amola liligi ida: iwane ilia dialuma da: iya amola galogoa gaga: i, E da samogemu.
At the time [that Yahweh does that], he will strip away everything that the women of Jerusalem wear to make themselves beautiful—the ornaments on their ankles and their headbands, their crescent necklaces,
19 Ilia fesuale amoga nina: hamoi liligi, ilia abula sawa: figisu,
their earrings and bracelets and veils,
20 ilia habuga, ilia adodigi liligi ilia loboga amola hagomoga ga: sa,
their scarves and ankle bracelets and sashes, their perfumes and (charms/little things that they wear thinking that those things will protect them from evil),
21 ilia lobo sogo gasi salasu, mi gasi salasu,
their signet rings and nose rings,
22 ilia abula ida: iwane gala, ilia da: i salasu abula, ilia muni salasu,
their nice robes and capes and cloaks and purses,
23 ilia abula amo da ilia da: i hodo noga: le hame dedebosa amola ilia sedade abula sawa: figisu, Hina Gode da amo huluane lale fasimu.
their mirrors and nice linen clothes and shawls.
24 Ilia da gabusiga: manoma legesu hameba: le, gaha bagade ba: mu. Ilia bulu noga: iwane hameba: le, efe noga: i hame amoga idiniginisi dagoi ba: mu. Ilia dialuma hinabo ida: iwane waga: i dagoiba: le busa: gianai agoane ba: mu. Hina Gode da ilia abula ida: iwane samogei dagoiba: le, ilia da wadela: i gadelai abula amoga sali dagoi ba: mu. Ilia nina: hamoi da sinidigili, gogosiasu fawane ba: mu.
Instead of their having a nice smell from perfume, they will stink; instead of nice sashes, they will have ropes [around their waists because they will be captives]. Instead of having fancy hairdos, they will be bald. Instead of fancy/beautiful robes, they will wear rough sackcloth, and instead of being beautiful, they will be branded.
25 Yelusaleme dunu, ilia gasa bagade dunu, da gegesu ganodini fane legei dagoi ba: mu.
Their husbands will be killed by [their enemies’] swords, and their soldiers [will also die] in battles.
26 Fedege agoane, moilai bai bagade logo ga: su ilia da dimu amola didigia: mu. Amola moilai bai bagade da uda amo da enoga abula gisa: beba: le, da: i nabado agoane osoboga esalebe ba: mu.
People [PRS] will mourn and cry at the gates [of the city]. The city will [be like] [MET] a woman who sits on the ground because everything that she owned is gone.
