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 Adonai will have racham ·compassionate love· on Jacob [Supplanter], and will yet choose Israel [God prevails], and set them in their own land. The foreigner will join himself with them, and they will unite with the house of Jacob [Supplanter].
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.
The peoples will take them, and bring them to their place. The house of Israel [God prevails] will possess them in Adonai’s land for servants and for handmaids. They will take as captives those 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,
It will happen in the day that Adonai will give you rest from your sorrow, from your trouble, and from the hard service in which you were made to serve,
4 unugo agoro ni ruodh Babulon ka uwacho niya: Neyeuru kaka giko mar jatend ji chalo, kendo kaka gerone orumo!
that you will take up this parable against the king of Babylon [Confusion], and say, “How the oppressor has ceased! The golden city has ceased!”
5 Jehova Nyasaye oseturo ludh joma timbegi mono, ludh loch mar jotelo,
Adonai has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers,
6 mane gisandogo ogendini pile gi gero ka gigoyogi maonge yweyo, kendo ka gitiyogi gi gero malich maonge giko.
who struck the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, who ruled the nations in anger, with a persecution that no one restrained.
7 Pinje duto oyudo yweyo kod kwe omiyo ji kok gi mor.
The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet. They break out song.
8 Yiend saipras kod sida mag Lebanon bende mor kodu kawacho ni: “Koro onge ngʼama nochak otongʼwa nikech osetieku.”
Yes, the cypress trees rejoice with you, with the cedars of Lebanon, saying, “Since you are humbled, no lumberjack has 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)
Sheol ·Place of the dead· from beneath has moved for you to meet you at your coming. It stirs up the departed spirits for you, even all the rulers of the earth. It has 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.”
They all will answer and ask you, “Have you also become as weak as we are? Have you become like 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)
Your pomp is brought down to Sheol ·Place of the dead·, with the sound of your stringed instruments. Maggots are spread out under you, and worms cover you. (Sheol h7585)
12 Mano kaka isepodho kia e polo, yaye ratego, sulwe mar okinyi! Oseboli e piny in ma yande itieko ogendini.
How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low!
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.
You said in your heart, “I will ascend into heaven! I will exalt my throne above the stars of God! I will sit on the mountain of assembly, in the far 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 make myself like haElyon [the Most High]!”
Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol ·Place of the dead·, to the depths of the pit (of Abbadon, the unrighteous side of Sheol). (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,
Those who see you will stare at you. They will ponder you, saying, “Is this the man who made the earth to tremble, who shook kingdoms;
17 ngʼat mane omiyo piny duto odongʼ gunda, mane otieko miechgi madongo, kendo mane ok nyal gonyo joma osetweyo odog thuchegi?”
who made the world like a wilderness, and overthrew its cities; who didn’t release his prisoners to their home?”
18 Ruodhi duto mag ogendini onindo komi luor, ka moro ka moro ni e liende owuon.
All the kings of the nations, sleep in glory, everyone 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 you are cast away from your tomb like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain, who are thrust through with the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit (of Abbadon, the unrighteous side of Sheol); like a dead body trodden under foot.
20 ringreni ok noiki kaka noik ruodhi mamoko nimar iseketho piny kendo isenego jogi. Nyithi joma timbegi mono ok nochak oluong nyingegi kendo.
You will not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land. You have killed your people. The offspring of evildoers will not be named forever.
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 for slaughter of his children because of the iniquity of their fathers, that they not rise up and possess the earth, and fill the surface 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.”
“I will rise up against them,” says Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], “and cut off from Babylon [Confusion] name and remnant, and son and son’s son,” says Adonai.
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 porcupine, and pools of water. I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,” says Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies].
24 Jehova Nyasaye Maratego osingore niya, “Adier, notimre mana kaka asechano kendo nobedi mana kaka aseparo.
Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] has sworn, saying, “Surely, as I have thought, so shall it happen; 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 tread him under foot on my mountains. Then his yoke will leave them, and his burden leave their shoulders.
26 Ma e chenro mabiro timore ne piny ngima; ma e bat moserie kuom ogendini duto.
This is the plan that is determined for the whole earth. This is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
27 Nimar Jehova Nyasaye Maratego osechano mar timo ma, en ngʼa manyalo gengʼe? Oserieyo bade, to en ngʼa manyalo tame?
For Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] has planned, and who can stop it? His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?”
28 Wachni nofwenyore e higa mane ruoth Ahaz othoe.
This burden was in the year that king Ahaz died.
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.
Don’t rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod that struck you is broken; for out of the serpent’s root an adder will emerge, and his fruit will 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.
The firstborn of the poor will eat, and the needy will lie down in safety; and I will kill your root with famine, and your remnant will be killed.
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, gate! Cry, city! You are melted away, Philistia, all of you; for smoke comes out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks.
32 Dwoko mane ma onego omi joote mag pinyno? “Jehova Nyasaye oseguro Sayun, kendo kuome ema joge man-gi lit noyudie resruok.”
What will they answer the messengers of the nation? That Adonai has founded Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking], and in her the afflicted of his people will take refuge.
