< Aisaia 44 >
1 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili fi! Na hawa: hamosu dunu! Na ilegei fi, Ya: igobe egaga fi! Nabima!
Yet listen now, Jacob my servant, and Israel, whom I have chosen.
2 Na da Hina Gode. Na da dili hahamoi. Dilia lalelegei eso amola fa: no Na da dili fidisu. Mae beda: ma! Dilia da Na hawa: hamosu dunu amola Na dogolegei, ilegei dunu fi.
This is what the LORD who made you, and formed you from the womb, who will help you says: “Don’t be afraid, Jacob my servant; and you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
3 Na da hano hanai soge amoga hano imunu. Amola hafoga: i soge amo da: iya hano masa: ne hamomu. Na da Na gasa amo dilia mano ilima sogadigimu, amola diligaga fi ilima Na hahawane dogolegele iasu imunu.
For I will pour water on him who is thirsty, and streams on the dry ground. I will pour my Spirit on your descendants, and my blessing on your offspring;
4 Ilia da gisi amoga ilia da hano bagade iaha, agoaiwane alemu. Amola yodima ifa amo da hano gadenene lelebe agoaiwane alemu.
and they will spring up among the grass, as willows by the watercourses.
5 Dunu afae afae da amane sia: mu, “Na da Hina Gode Ea dunu.” Ilia da Isala: ili fi dunu ilima gilisima: ne misunu. Ilia huluane da afae afae Hina Gode Ea dio ilia loboga dedemu, amola ilia da afae afae “Na da Gode Ea fi ganodini esala” sia: mu.
One will say, ‘I am the LORD’s.’ Another will be called by the name of Jacob; and another will write with his hand ‘to the LORD,’ and honor the name of Israel.”
6 Hina Gode da Isala: ili ouligisa amola gaga: sa. E da Hina Gode Bagadedafa, amola E da amane sia: sa, “Na da Hemosu amola Na da Dagosu. Eno ‘gode’ da hame, Ni fawane da Godedafa.
This is what the LORD, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer, the LORD of Hosts, says: “I am the first, and I am the last; and besides me there is no God.
7 Eno dunu da Na hamobe defele hamomu ganabela: ? Nowa da hou degabo hamoi asili, Fifi Ahoanusu amoga doaga: le, nowa da amo hou ba: ma: ne defele esalabala? Hamedei!
Who is like me? Who will call, and will declare it, and set it in order for me, since I established the ancient people? Let them declare the things that are coming, and that will happen.
8 Na fi dunu! Mae beda: ma! Dilia dawa: ! Musa: hemoneganini, amo eso huluane ganodini hou Na da ba: la: lalu sia: i dagoi. Amola dilia da Na ba: su dunu. Eno ‘gode’ esalabala? Gasa bagade ‘gode’ amo Na da hame nabi, agoaiwane esalabala? Hame mabu!
Don’t fear, neither be afraid. Haven’t I declared it to you long ago, and shown it? You are my witnesses. Is there a God besides me? Indeed, there is not. I don’t know any other Rock.”
9 Nowa dunu da ‘gode’ liligi loboga hamosa da hamedei. Amola, ‘gode’ liligi amoga ilia nodosa, amo amola da hamedei. Nowa da amo ‘gode’ liligi ilima nodone sia: ne gadosea da si dofoi agoane amola hame dawa: su dunu. Ilia da gogosiasu ba: mu.
Everyone who makes a carved image is vain. The things that they delight in will not profit. Their own witnesses don’t see, nor know, that they may be disappointed.
10 Dilia da ouli amoga loboga hamoi ‘gode’ ilima sia: ne gadoma: ne hamomu da defea hame galebe.
Who has fashioned a god, or molds an image that is profitable for nothing?
11 Nowa da agoaiwane liligi amoma nodone sia: ne gadosea da gogosiasu ba: mu. Dunu amo da loboga hamoi ‘gode’ hamosa da osobo bagade dunu fawane. Ilia da misini, fofada: mu da defea. Amasea, ilia beda: mu amola gogosiamu.
Behold, all his fellows will be disappointed; and the workmen are mere men. Let them all be gathered together. Let them stand up. They will fear. They will be put to shame together.
12 Ouli hahamosu dunu da ouli afae lale, laluga gobele hahamosa. E da ea gasa lobo amoga ouli ha: maga fane, hahamosa. E da hawa: hamobeba: le, ha: i naba amola hano hanasa hele naba.
The blacksmith takes an ax, works in the coals, fashions it with hammers, and works it with his strong arm. He is hungry, and his strength fails; he drinks no water, and is faint.
13 Diasu gagusu dunu da ifa ea defei ba: sa. E da dunu ea da: i hodo defele amo ifaga dedesa. E da gobihei amoga ifa sagane, e da amo ifa hamone, dunu noga: i ea da: i hodo agoane hamone, ea diasu ganodini ligisisa.
The carpenter stretches out a line. He marks it out with a pencil. He shapes it with planes. He marks it out with compasses, and shapes it like the figure of a man, with the beauty of a man, to reside in a house.
14 E da dolo ifa abasea, hamosa. O e da “saibalase” o “ouge” ifa amoga hamosa. O e da “lolele” ifa bugili, gibu dasea amo ifa alema: ne ouesala.
He cuts down cedars for himself, and takes the cypress and the oak, and strengthens for himself one among the trees of the forest. He plants a cypress tree, and the rain nourishes it.
15 Ifa abasea, e da la: idi lale, lalu didisa. Eno la: idi amoga e da ‘gode’ agoaila hamosa. La: idi afae e da ea da: i dogoloma: ne amola ea ha: i manu gobema: ne, e da lalu didisa. Eno la: idi amoga e da ‘gode’ liligi hamone, amoma nodone sia: ne gadosa.
Then it will be for a man to burn; and he takes some of it and warms himself. Yes, he burns it and bakes bread. Yes, he makes a god and worships it; he makes it a carved image, and falls down to it.
16 Amo ifa mogili e da lalu didili, ohe hu gobele nanu, sadi ba: sa. E da ea da: i dogolole, amane sia: sa, “Defea! Na da hahawane noga: le dogoloi dagoi.”
He burns part of it in the fire. With part of it, he eats meat. He roasts a roast and is satisfied. Yes, he warms himself and says, “Aha! I am warm. I have seen the fire.”
17 Be ifa la: idi eno amoga e da ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi hamone, amoma beguduli nodone sia: ne gadosa. E da amo liligi amoga sia: ne gadole, amane sia: sa, “Di da na ‘gode’. Dia na gaga: ma!”
The rest of it he makes into a god, even his engraved image. He bows down to it and worships, and prays to it, and says, “Deliver me, for you are my god!”
18 Agoai dunu da gagaouiba: le, ilila: hamobe hame dawa: Ilisu da dafawane hou mae dawa: ma: ne, ilila: si wadela: sa.
They don’t know, neither do they consider, for he has shut their eyes, that they can’t see, and their hearts, that they can’t understand.
19 Loboga hamoi ‘gode’ hamosu dunu da asigi dawa: su hame gala. E da dawa: lai ganiaba, e da amane sia: na: noba, “Ifa la: idi amoga na da lalu didi. Na da lalu nasubu amoga agi ga: gi gobei amola ohe hu gobele mai. Amo mogili diala amoga na da ‘gode’ liligi hamoi. Amola, wali na da ifa amoma fawane begudulala.”
No one thinks, neither is there knowledge nor understanding to say, “I have burned part of it in the fire. Yes, I have also baked bread on its coals. I have roasted meat and eaten it. Shall I make the rest of it into an abomination? Shall I bow down to a tree trunk?”
20 Amo hou da gagaoui dunu nasubu nana agoai ba: sa, hamedei. E da ea gagaoui asigi dawa: su amoga fa: no bobogebeba: le, e fidimu hamedei agoai ba: sa. E da amo ‘gode’ (amo da ‘gode’ hame), hima sia: mu gogolesa.
He feeds on ashes. A deceived heart has turned him aside; and he can’t deliver his soul, nor say, “Isn’t there a lie in my right hand?”
21 Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili fi! Amo noga: le dawa: ma! Dilia da Na hawa: hamosu dunu, amo dawa: ma! Dilia da Na hawa: hamosu dunu esaloma: ne, Na dili hahamoi. Amola, Na da dili hamedafa gogolemu.
Remember these things, Jacob and Israel, for you are my servant. I have formed you. You are my servant. Israel, you will not be forgotten by me.
22 Na da dilia wadela: i hou, mu mobi agoane doga: i dagoi. Nama buhagima! Na fawane da dilia Gaga: su dunu.”
I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, your transgressions, and, as a cloud, your sins. Return to me, for I have redeemed you.
23 Dilia mu! Hahawaneba: le, ha: giwane wele sia: ma! Osobo bagade hagudu soge! Di amola wele sia: ma! Goumi amola iwila ifa huluane! Dilia amola hahawaneba: le wele sia: ma! Hina Gode da Ea fi dunu Isala: ili gaga: i dagoiba: le, Ea gasa bagade hou olelei dagoi.
Sing, you heavens, for the LORD has done it! Shout, you lower parts of the earth! Break out into singing, you mountains, O forest, all of your trees, for the LORD has redeemed Jacob, and will glorify himself in Israel.
24 Na da Hina Gode, dilia Gaga: su dunu. Na da dili hahamoi dagoi. Na da Hina Gode, liligi huluane Hahamosu dunu esala. Ni fawane da mu hahamoi. Na da osobo bagade hahamobeba: le, dunu eno da Na hame fidi.
The LORD, your Redeemer, and he who formed you from the womb says: “I am the LORD, who makes all things; who alone stretches out the heavens; who spreads out the earth by myself;
25 Na hamobeba: le, ogogosu ba: la: lusu dunu da gagaoui ba: sa. Dunu eno da gasumuni ba: sea, hobea misunu hou olelesa, amo ilia ba: i liligi Na da afadenesa. Na da bagade dawa: su dunu ilia sia: hedofasa, amola ilia bagade dawa: su hou da gagaoui fawane, amo eno dunuma olelesa.
who frustrates the signs of the liars, and makes diviners mad; who turns wise men backward, and makes their knowledge foolish;
26 Be Na hawa: hamosu dunu da hobea misunu hou olelesea, amola Na da sia: ne iasu dunu amo Na ilegesu olelema: ne asunasisia, Na da amo hobea misunu hou ba: la: lu amola amo ilegesu dafawane ba: ma: ne hamosa. Na da Yelusaleme amo ganodini dunu da bu esalumu, Na da Yelusaleme fi ilima sia: sa. Amola Yuda moilai huluane wali mugului diala, da wa: legadole bu buga: le gagui dagoi ba: mu, Na da amo sia: sa.
who confirms the word of his servant, and performs the counsel of his messengers; who says of Jerusalem, ‘She will be inhabited;’ and of the cities of Judah, ‘They will be built,’ and ‘I will raise up its waste places;’
27 Na da sia: afae fawane sia: sea, hano wayabo bagade da hafoga: i dagoi ba: sa.
who says to the deep, ‘Be dry,’ and ‘I will dry up your rivers,’
28 Na da Sailasema amane sia: sa, “Di da Na ouligisu dunu esalumu. Di da Na hanai hamomu. Dia sia: beba: le, Yelusaleme da bu gagui dagoi ba: mu. Amola dia sia: beba: le, Debolo Diasu ea bai da bu legei dagoi ba: mu.”
who says of Cyrus, ‘He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure,’ even saying of Jerusalem, ‘She will be built;’ and of the temple, ‘Your foundation will be laid.’”
