Aisaia 40
1 Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na fi dunu ilia dogo denesima. Ilia dogo denesima!
“Comfort, yes comfort my people!” says your God.
2 Yelusaleme fi dunu ilia dogo denesima: ne olelema! Ilia da se nabasu defele nabi dagoi amola ilia wadela: i hou da gogolema: ne olofoi dagoi, amo ilima olelema. Na da ilia wadela: i hou defele, ilima se iasu defele i dagoi.”
“Speak lovingly to the people of Jerusalem, telling them that their hard times are over, that their sins have been forgiven, and that the Lord has paid them twice over for their sins.”
3 Wesu sia: da agoane naba, “Dilia iwila amo ganodini, Hina Gode masa: ne, logo fodoma. Hafoga: i soge amo ganodini ninia Gode da masa: ne, ahoasu noga: le moloma.
A voice is heard calling, “Prepare the way for the Lord in the wilderness, make a straight highway for our God through the desert.
4 Fago huluane nabama. Goumi huluane mugululi, umi agoane hamoma. Agolo da bu umi agoane ba: mu. Amola soge fofagoi huluane da bu fa: i dagoi agoane ba: mu.
Fill in all the valleys; level all the mountains and hills; smooth out the uneven ground; make the rough places flat.
5 Amasea, osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu huluane da Hina Gode Ea Hadigi ba: mu. Bai Hina Gode da amo hou ilegele sia: i dagoi.”
The Lord's glory will be revealed, and everyone will see it together. This is what the Lord has declared.”
6 Wesu sia: eno da agoane naba, “Sia: ne iasu sia: ma!” Na da amane adole ba: sa, ‘Na da adi sia: ne iasu sia: ma: bela?’ Agoane sia: ne iasu olelema. Osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu huluane da gisi agoane amola ilia da ifa mosoi defele, hedolowane biosa.
A voice is heard saying, “Shout it out.” I asked, “What shall I shout?” “All human beings are like grass, and all their trustworthiness is like the flowers of the field.
7 Hina Gode da fo ili fama: ne iasisia, gisi mosoi da biosa amola wadela: sa. Osobo bagade dunu da gisi mosoi biobe defele, hedolo biosa.
The grass wilts and the flower fades when the Lord's breathes on them. Yes, the people are grass!
8 Dafawane! Gisi mosoi da biosa amola falegai da wadela: sa. Be Gode Ea sia: da mae mugululi, dialalalumu.”
However, even though the grass wilts and the flower fades, the word of our God will endure forever.”
9 Yelusaleme fi! Goumi sedade amoba: le heda: le, sia: ida: iwane gala olelema. Saione dunu! Sia: ida: iwane, ha: giwane wele sia: ma. Mae beda: iwane ha: gi wele sia: ma. Yuda moilai huluane ilia Gode da manebe, agoane ilima olelema.
Zion, bringer of good news, go up a high mountain. Jerusalem, bringer of good news, raise your voice and shout out loud. Don't be afraid to shout really loud! Tell the towns of Judah, “Here is your God!”
10 Hina Gode Ouligisudafa da gasa bagadewane, ouligima: ne misunu. E masea, E da dunu amo Hi gaga: i, amo oule misunu.
Look! The Lord God is coming with power! He will rule with a firm hand. Look! He's bringing his reward with him, coming to give his gift.
11 E da sibi ouligisu defele, Ea sibi fi ouligimu. E da sibi mano gagadole, ea lobo ganodini ouga: ne, gaguli masunu. Amola ilia amelali, E da asabole oule masunu.
He looks after his flock like a shepherd. He picks up the lambs in his arms and holds them close to his chest. He leads those that are nursing young.
12 Dunu afae da hano wayabo bagade amo ea loboga gaguli, ea defei dawa: ma: bela: ? O mu amo ea sedade defei ea loboga defema: bela: ? Dunu afae da faigelei ganodini, osobo bagade ea su salima: bela: ? O dioi defei ba: su amoga goumi amola agolo ilia dioi defei amo ba: ma: bela: ?
Who has measured the waters he holds in the palm of his hand? Who has marked off the heavens with the span of his hand? Who has worked out the amount of dust of the earth? Who has weighed the mountains on a scale and the hills with a balance?
13 Dunu afae da Hina Godema agoane hamoma: ia olelemusa: dawa: bela: ? Nowa da Ema olelemusa: dawa: bela: o Ema fada: i sia: musa: dawa: bela: ?
Who has measured the Spirit of the Lord, or taught him what to do as his counselor?
14 Gode da dawa: lamusa: amola hawa: hamosu hamomusa: , E da nowama adole ba: sala: ?
Who did the Lord go to for advice to help him understand? Who taught him right from wrong? Who gave him knowledge and showed him the way of wisdom?
15 Hina Gode Ea siga ba: sea da fifi asi gala huluane da hamedei liligi hano afae dadibi defele ba: sa. Ilia da oga sedagaga diala, osobo su hagiwane defele ba: sa.
It's obvious that the nations are just a drop in a bucket. They're like dust on a set of scales. He can pick up islands as if they weigh next to nothing.
16 Ohe fi huluane Lebanone iwila ganodini esala da Godema gobele salasu hamoma: ne defele hame ba: sa. Amola Lebanone ifa huluane da amo gobele salasu hamoma: ne, lalu didimusa: habemu defele hame ba: sa.
All the wood in Lebanon for a fire and all its animals as a sacrifice wouldn't be enough a burnt offering.
17 Fifi asi gala huluane da Ema hamedei liligi.
To him all the nations are like nothing. He counts them as less than nothing—like they don't exist.
18 Ninia Gode da nowama defele sia: ma: bela: ? Dilia da Ea hou habodane olelema: bela: ?
Who do you think is like God? What image do you think he looks like?
19 E da ‘gode’ amo hawa: hamosu dunu da ilia loboga hamosa, amo ouli hawa: hamosu dunu ilia da gouliga dedebosa amola silifa bai amoga legesa, Gode da agoaiwane liligi hame!
Is he a metal idol that a craftsman casts in a mold, and then a goldsmith overlays it with gold and makes silver chains for it?
20 Dunu da silifa amola gouli bidi lamu amo da hamedei ba: sea, e da ifa hame dasamu liligi lasa. E da bagade dawa: su hawa: hamosu dunu hogoi helesea, amo dunu ‘gode’ hame dafamu liligi ea loboga hamoma: ne sia: sa.
Those who are too poor to pay for that choose wood that won't rot, then they look for a skilled wood-carver to make an idol that won't fall over.
21 Dilia da hame dawa: bela: ? Ilia da hemonega dilima hame olelebela: ? Dilia da osobo bagade ea muni hemosu amo hame nabibala: ?
Don't you know? Haven't you heard? Hasn't it been explained to you from the very beginning? Haven't you understood from the time the world was created?
22 Dunu amo Ea Fisu da osobo bagade amola mu amoga gadodili diala, amo da: iya fibi Dunu da osobo bagade hahamoi dagoi. Hagudu osobo bagade dunu da fonobahadi gedama agoane ba: sa. Gode da mu amo abula agoane fadegale moloi. Amola dunu esalebe abula diasu agoane hamoi dagoi.
God sits on his throne above the horizon of the earth; the people that live there are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a curtain, spreading them out like a tent to live in.
23 E da gasa bagade ouligisu dunu amo hedofale, ilia hamedei liligi agoai ba: ma: ne hamosa.
He brings leaders down; he makes the rulers of the world like nothing.
24 Ilia da bugi liligi sono, difi hame sa: i agoai ba: sa. Amasea, Hina Gode da fo iasisia, ilia da biole, bioi gisi agoai foga mini asi dagoi ba: sa.
In fact they are hardly even planted, hardly even sown, hardly even taken root, when he blows on them and they wither, and the wind carries them away like straw.
25 Hadigi Gode da nowama defema: bela: ? Dunu eno da E defele esalabala? Hame mabu!
“Who are you going to compare me with? Who is equal to me?” asks the Holy One.
26 Muagado ba: ma! Gasumuni dilia da ba: sa! Nowa da amo hahamobela: ? Fedege agoane, E da gasumuni dadi gagui gilisisu defele, ilima bisili, oule ahoa. E da ilia idi dawa: , amola E da ilia dio afae afae amoga ilima wele sia: sa. Ea gasa da bagadedafa. Gasumuni afae da fisi dagoi hamedafa ba: sa.
Look at the heavens. Who created all this? He leads the stars like an army, and calls each one by name. Because he has great power and incredible strength, not a single one of them is missing.
27 Amaiba: le, Isala: ili fi dunu, dilia abuliba: le egasala: ? Dilia abuliba: le, Hina Gode da dilia bidi hamosu hame dawa: , amola dilima moloi hame hamosu hou amoma E da hame asigisa, dilia abuliba: le egane sia: sala: ?
Why do you speak like this, Jacob, and why do you say, Israel, “The Lord doesn't see what's happening to me, and he's ignoring my rights!”
28 Dilia hame dawa: bela: ? Dilia hame nabibala: ? Hina Gode da eso huluane Esalalalusu Godedafa. E da osobo bagade hahamoi dagoi. E da helesu hame dawa: Dunu afae da Ea asigi dawa: su dawa: mu da hamedei.
Don't you know? Haven't you heard? The Lord is the eternal God, the Creator of the whole earth. He's never weak or tired; you can't find out all he knows.
29 E da nowa da gasa hame amola helebe, ilima gasa iaha.
He gives strength to the weary and power the powerless.
30 Dunu huluane amola da: i hame hamoi dunu da helebeba: le, gasa hame laha. Ayeligi dunu da helebeba: le, dafasu dawa:
Even young people grow weak and tired—they fall down when they're exhausted.
31 Be nowa da Hina Gode Ea fidima: ne dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le aligisia, da ilia gasa bu gaheabolo hamoi dagoi ba: mu. Ilia da buhiba ea ougia hagili ahoabe defele wa: le masunu. Ilia da hehenabeba: le, hame helemu. Ilia da ahoasea, gasa hame hou hame dawa: mu.
But those who trust in the Lord will have their strength renewed. They will fly high with wings like eagles. They will run and not be tired. They will walk and not be worn out.
