< Isaya 14 >

1 Jehova Nyasaye biro kecho Jakobo mi enochak oyier Israel, kendo enomi gidag e pinygi giwegi. Jopinje mamoko nobi irgi mi riwre gi od Jakobo.
For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
2 Ogendini nochokgi mi duog-gi e gwengegi giwegi. Kendo od Israel nolok ogendini jotichgi, machwo kod mamon e piny Jehova Nyasaye. Ginilok joma noketogi wasumbini, obed wasumbinigi mi giti joma ne thirogi.
And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
3 E odiechiengʼ ma Jehova Nyasaye nomiu yweyo kuom chandruok gi masira kod twech malit,
And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve,
4 unugo agoro ni ruodh Babulon ka uwacho niya: Neyeuru kaka giko mar jatend ji chalo, kendo kaka gerone orumo!
That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased!
5 Jehova Nyasaye oseturo ludh joma timbegi mono, ludh loch mar jotelo,
The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, [and] the sceptre of the rulers.
6 mane gisandogo ogendini pile gi gero ka gigoyogi maonge yweyo, kendo ka gitiyogi gi gero malich maonge giko.
He who smote the people in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled the nations in anger, is persecuted, [and] none hindereth.
7 Pinje duto oyudo yweyo kod kwe omiyo ji kok gi mor.
The whole earth is at rest, [and] is quiet: they break forth into singing.
8 Yiend saipras kod sida mag Lebanon bende mor kodu kawacho ni: “Koro onge ngʼama nochak otongʼwa nikech osetieku.”
Yea, the fir trees rejoice at thee, [and] the cedars of Lebanon, [saying], Since thou art laid down, no feller is come up against us.
9 Piny joma otho otuk duto ka romoni kidonjo kuno, kendo ochiewo chunje joma ne osetho mondo omosi, ma gin jogo duto mane jotelo e piny; omiyo jogo duto mane ruodhi mag ogendini aa malo e kombegi mag loch. (Sheol h7585)
Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet [thee] at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead for thee, [even] all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
10 Giniwuo gi dwol achiel kagiwacho niya, “Kara in bende koro isebedo manyap, mana ka wan; isebedo machal kodwa.”
All they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? art thou become like unto us?
11 Tekoni duto osedok piny nyaka ei liel, kaachiel gi thumbe ma yande iwinjo; kudni e pieni minindoe kendo e ongedi ma iumorigo. (Sheol h7585)
Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, [and] the noise of thy viols: the worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee. (Sheol h7585)
12 Mano kaka isepodho kia e polo, yaye ratego, sulwe mar okinyi! Oseboli e piny in ma yande itieko ogendini.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! [how] art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13 Ne iwacho e chunyi niya, “Abiro idho e polo; abiro guro lochna malo moyombo sulwe mag Nyasaye; kendo anabed e kom duongʼ, ewi got mar chokruok, mantiere malo mogik mar got maler.
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 Anaidh malo moyombo boche polo; kendo anachal gi Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo.”
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 To koro osedwoki piny e bur matut nyaka e piny joma otho. (Sheol h7585)
Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. (Sheol h7585)
16 Ji duto maneni biro ngʼiyi ka giwuoro, kendo penjo ka gihum kuom gima osetimore niya, “Bende ma e ngʼat mane yiengo piny kendo miyo pinjeruodhi tetni,
They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, [and] consider thee, [saying, Is] this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;
17 ngʼat mane omiyo piny duto odongʼ gunda, mane otieko miechgi madongo, kendo mane ok nyal gonyo joma osetweyo odog thuchegi?”
[That] made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; [that] opened not the house of his prisoners?
18 Ruodhi duto mag ogendini onindo komi luor, ka moro ka moro ni e liende owuon.
All the kings of the nations, [even] all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house.
19 In to osejwangʼi oko mar buri mana ka bad yath mojwangʼ; kendo ringri oum gi jogo mosenegi gi ligangla, jogo mowiti e bur motimo kite. Mana ka ringre joma otho minyono gi tielo,
But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, [and as] the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.
20 ringreni ok noiki kaka noik ruodhi mamoko nimar iseketho piny kendo isenego jogi. Nyithi joma timbegi mono ok nochak oluong nyingegi kendo.
Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, [and] slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned.
21 Yieruru kamoro ma udhi negoe yawuote nikech richo mag kweregi; ok onego giyud thuolo mar bedo gi loch e piny kendo gipongʼe gi miechgi madongo.
Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they do not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities.
22 Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Abiro kedo kodgi. Anagol nyinge oko gi joge motony gi nyithinde kod nyikwaye kuom jo-Babulon.”
For I will rise up against them, saith the LORD of hosts, and cut off from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the LORD.
23 “Abiro loko kar dakne ochal gi kar dak tula, kendo kar siany; mi anayweye oko kendo tieke chuth.”
I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts.
24 Jehova Nyasaye Maratego osingore niya, “Adier, notimre mana kaka asechano kendo nobedi mana kaka aseparo.
The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, [so] shall it stand:
25 Abiro tieko jo-Asuria manie pinya, kendo ananyone piny ewi godena. Jok mage nogol kuom joga kendo tingʼne mapek nogol e gok-gi.”
That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders.
26 Ma e chenro mabiro timore ne piny ngima; ma e bat moserie kuom ogendini duto.
This [is] the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this [is] the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations.
27 Nimar Jehova Nyasaye Maratego osechano mar timo ma, en ngʼa manyalo gengʼe? Oserieyo bade, to en ngʼa manyalo tame?
For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul [it]? and his hand [is] stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
28 Wachni nofwenyore e higa mane ruoth Ahaz othoe.
In the year that king Ahaz died was this burden.
29 Kik ubed gi mor un jo-Filistia duto ni luth mane ogougo osetur, nimar koa kuom thuondno nonywol thuond rachier ma kothe nobed gi kwiri marach.
Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent’s root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit [shall be] a fiery flying serpent.
30 Joma odhier moloyo e kind jodhier noyud kuonde kwath kendo joma ochando noywe gi kwe. To kothi natiek gi kech, kendo kejno noneg joma nok modongʼ kuomi.
And the firstborn of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety: and I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay thy remnant.
31 Dengi, yaye in rangach! Go nduru, yaye in dala maduongʼ! Beduru gi bwok maduongʼ, un jo-Filistia. Rumbi mar iro biro kowuok yo nyandwat kendo onge kata ngʼato achiel madigni kuomgi.
Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina, [art] dissolved: for there shall come from the north a smoke, and none [shall be] alone in his appointed times.
32 Dwoko mane ma onego omi joote mag pinyno? “Jehova Nyasaye oseguro Sayun, kendo kuome ema joge man-gi lit noyudie resruok.”
What shall [one] then answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it.
