Aisaia 42
1 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na Hawa: Hamosu Dunu amoma Na da gasa iabe da goea. Na da E ilegei dagoi. Na da Ema hahawane gala. Na da Na A: silibu Ema imunu, amola E da fifi asi gala huluane ilima moloidafa hou gaguli misunu.
[Yahweh says, “I want you people to know about] my servant, whom I encourage. I have chosen him, and I am pleased with him. I have given him my Spirit, and he will make certain that all the people-groups do what is right/just.
2 E da hame wele sia: mu amola gasawane hame sia: mu. E da moilai logoga gasa fili bagade sia: su hame sia: mu.
He will not [show his power by] shouting [DOU] or by talking very loudly.
3 E da saga: selefai amo hame fimu. E da gamali ea sawa: ugugulala amo hame ha: ba: domu. E da moloidafa hou eso huluane dialoma: ne, dunu huluane fidima: ne, oule misunu.
He will not get rid of [anyone who is weak like] [MET] a smashed reed, and he will not [end the life of anyone who is helpless like] [MET] someone would extinguish a dimly burning wick [of an oil lamp]. He will faithfully/continually make sure that judges decide cases justly.
4 E da hobea misunu hahawane hou dafawaneyale dawa: su hou hame fisimu amola E da hame beda: mu. E da osobo bagadega moloidafa hou dialoma: ne, ilegemu. Soge sedaga fi dunu da hanaiwane Ea olelesu nabimusa: ouesala.
He will not become exhausted or discouraged all during the time that he is causing things to be done justly throughout the earth. Even [people living on the islands in] [MTY] the oceans will confidently wait for [him to teach them] his laws.”
5 Gode da mu hahamone, fadegale gai. E da osobo bagade amola fi huluane amo ganodini esalebe amo hahamoi. E da osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu huluane ilima esalusu amola mifo i dagoi. Amola wali Hina Godedafa da Ea Hawa: Hamosu Dunu Ema amane sia: sa,
Yahweh our God created the sky and spread it out. He also created the earth and everything on it. He gives breath to all the people on the earth; he causes them to live [DOU]. [And he is the one who says to his special servant],
6 “Na, Hina Gode, da Dima misa: ne wele sia: nanu, Dima moloidafa hou da osobo bagadega dialoma: ne, Dia amo hou hamoma: ne, gasa i dagoi. Dia hamobeba: le, Na da fifi asi gala dunu huluane ilima gousa: su hamomu. Dia hamobeba: le, Na da fifi asi gala huluane ilima hadigi imunu.
“I, Yahweh, have chosen you to show people that I always act righteously/fairly. I will grasp your hand and protect you, and I will present you to [my Israeli] people to be the one who will put into effect my agreement with them. [You will be like] a light to the [other] nations.
7 Di da si dofoi dunu amo ilia si fadegamu. Amola dunu ilia gasi se iasu diasu ganodini amo ilia halegale masa: ne, ilia se dabe iasu logo doasimu.
You will enable blind [IDM] people to see, you will free those who are in prison (OR, who are bound [by the guilt of their sins]) [MET] and release those who are in dark dungeons.
8 Na, Nisu fawane da Hina Gode, Dia Gode. Eno ‘gode’ liligi da Na Hadigi gilisili hame lamu. Hamedei ‘gode’ loboga hamoi liligi da Nama nodosu gilisili lama: ne, Na da logo hame doasimu.
I am Yahweh; that is my name. I will not allow anyone else to receive the honor that only I deserve. And I will not allow idols to be praised like only I should be praised.
9 Na da hobea misunu hou musa: olelei dagoi. Amola amo hou defele da doaga: i dagoi. Wali Na da gaheabolo hou hobea misunu, amo dilima olelemu.”
Everything that I have prophesied has happened, and now I will tell about other things that will happen. I will tell you things that will happen before they happen.”
10 Hina Godema gesami gaheabolo hea: ma! Osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane! Ema nodone gesami hea: ma! Dilia dunu amo dusagai ganodini hano wayabo bagadega ahoa! Ema nodoma! Amola liligi huluane hano wayabo bagade amo ganodini esala! Ema nodoma! Soge sedaga amola amo ganodini esalebe dunu huluane! Ema gesami hea: ma!
Sing a new song to Yahweh! Sing to praise him throughout the world! All you people who sail across the oceans, and all you creatures that live in the oceans, and all you people who live on islands far away, sing!
11 Hafoga: i soge amola moilai amo ganodini diala da Godema nodomu da defea. Gida fi dunu da Ema nodomu da defea. Nowa dunu da Sila amo ganodini esala da goumi da: iya hahawaneba: le wele sia: mu da defea.
You people who live in towns in the desert, sing loudly! You people who live in the Kedar [area in the north of Arabia], you rejoice also! You people in Sela [city in Edom], you also should sing joyfully; shout [to praise him] from the tops of your mountains!
12 Dunu da soge sedagaga esala, ilia da hadigi amola nodosu Hina Godema imunu da defea.
Even people who live on distant islands should honor Yahweh and sing to praise him.
13 Hina Gode da gegesu dunu defele gegemusa: ahoa. E da gegesu hamoma: ne, momagei amola hanaiwane esala. E da gegemusa: halasa. E da Ea ha lai hasanasimusa: , Ea gasa hou olelesa.
[It will be as though] Yahweh will march out like [SIM] a mighty soldier; he will show that he is very angry. He will shout a battle-cry, and [then] he will defeat all his enemies.
14 Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na da eso bagohame ouiya: le, Na fi dunuma hame adole i. Be wali Na hamomu eso da doaga: i dagoi. Na da uda da mano lalelegemu gadenesea wele sia: sa, amo defele Na da wele sia: sa.
[He will say], “I have remained silent [DOU] for a long time; I have restrained myself [from doing what I need to do]. But now, like [SIM] a woman who is giving birth to a baby, I will cry out and gasp and pant.
15 Na da agolo amola goumi wadela: lesimu. Na da gisi amola ifa bioma: ne hafoga: mu. Na da hano fago amo afadenene bu hafoga: i soge hamomu. Amola hano wayabo hafoga: mu.
I will level off the hills and mountains, and I will cause all the plants and trees to dry up. I will cause the rivers to become small streams, and little islands will appear in them, and I will cause all the pools to become dry.
16 Na da Na dunu si dofoi amo logo ilia da musa: hame ahoasu, amoga oule masunu. Na da ilia gasi afadenene, bu hadigi hamomu amola soge fofagoi amo bu umi hamomu. Na da amo sia: i dagoi amola amo sia: i liligi Na da mae fisili, didili hamomu.
[My people who have been taken to Babylonia are like] [MET] blind people, [but] I will lead them along a road on which they have not walked before, on a road that they have not seen before. They have felt [very helpless, as though] they were walking in the darkness, but I will take away that darkness and I will make smooth the road that is in front of them. Those are the things that I will do for them; I will not abandon them.
17 Be dunu huluane da ‘gode’ loboga hamoi liligi dafawaneyale dawa: sa, amola ilia loboga hamoi liligi da ‘gode’ ilia da sia: sa, amo huluane Na da fonobomu amola ilia da gogosiasu bagade ba: mu.
But those who trust in carved idols, and say to images, ‘You are our gods,’ will be completely humiliated/disgraced.”
18 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Dilia ge hamedei dunu! Nabima! Dilia si dofoi dunu! Noga: le ba: ma!
You [Israeli people who have acted toward God like] deaf [people], listen [to what Yahweh says]! “You [who have been like] [MET] blind [people], look!
19 Na hawa: hamosu dunu (Isala: ili fi) da si dofoidafa. Amola Na sia: ne iasu dunu Na asunasisu da ge hamedei.
No people are [RHQ] as blind as my people, who [should have been] serving me. No people are [RHQ] as much like [MET] deaf people as [the Israelis, who should have been] my messengers. No people are [RHQ] as much like [MET] blind people as those whom I chose to serve me.
20 Isala: ili! Dilia da bagadewane ba: i dagoi. Be ba: i liligi hame lalegagui. Dilia da nabima: ne ge gala. Be hamedafa nabi.”
You see and know what are the right things to do, but you do not do them. You hear [what I say to you], but you do not pay attention.”
21 Hina Gode da gaga: musa: hanai gala. Amaiba: le, E da Ea sema amola Ea olelesu gaguia gadoi. Amola E da Ea fi amo Ea olelesu fa: no bobogema: ne, E da hanai galu.
Because Yahweh is righteous, he has honored his glorious laws.
22 Be wali Ea fi dunu da wamolai dagoi ba: sa. Ilia da se dabe iasu diasu amo ganodini ga: si amola wamolegei dagoi ba: sa. Dunu eno da ilia liligi huluane lai dagole, dunu afae ilia gaga: musa: manebe hame ba: i.
But [the armies of Babylon have destroyed Jerusalem] and have completely (plundered/taken away) [DOU] all the valuable things, and they have captured Yahweh’s people and taken them away and put them in prison. They have been captured easily, because there was no one to protect them; there was no one to say that they should be allowed to return home.
23 Dunu afae da amo sia: nabima: bela: ? Dilia da wali amola fa: no amola noga: le nabimu da defea.
Who among you will listen carefully to these things? Who will pay attention from now on?
24 Nowa da eno dunu ilia Isala: ili fi wadela: lesima: ne amola ilia liligi lama: ne logo doasibala: ? Hina Gode Hisu da amo logo doasi. Bai ninia da Ema wadela: le hamoi. E da ninia Ea hanai defele amola Ea olelesu nabawane esaloma: ne dawa: i galu. Be ninia da higa: i.
Who allowed the valuable possessions of the people of Israel to be stolen [RHQ, DOU]? It was Yahweh, because he is he one against whom we had sinned; we did not conduct our lives like he wanted us to, and we did not obey his laws.
25 Amaiba: le, E da Ea ougi ninima olelei amola ninia gegesu amo ganodini Ea se iasu nabima: ne, logo doasi dagoi. Ea ougi gia: i bagade lalu agoane Isala: ili soge huluane ganodini nenanu ba: i dagoi. Be amo hou ninima doaga: i, ninia da hame dawa: i. Ninia da amoga dawa: hamedafa lasu.
Therefore, he was extremely angry with us, and he caused our soldiers to be destroyed in battles. [It was as though] [MET] he lit a fire around us, but we did not understand [what he was trying to tell us]. [His being angry with us was like] a fire that would burn us up, but we did not pay attention [IDM].
