Isaya 32

1 Winjuru, Ruoth nobed gi loch makare kendo jotelo nobed gi telo mar adier.

Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and rulers shall rule in justice.

2 Ngʼato ka ngʼato nobed kar gengʼruok ne kalausi mana ka aore mamol e piny ongoro, kendo mana ka tipo mar Lwanda maduongʼ e piny motwo.

And a man shall be as a hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest, as streams of water in a dry place, as the shade of a great rock in a weary land.

3 Eka wenge joma neno ok nochak ogengʼ, kendo joma ochiko itgi nowinj wach.

And the eyes of those who see shall not be dim, and the ears of those who hear shall hearken.

4 Chuny ngʼat mamuomore nowinj wach gi tiende kendo ngʼat ma radwal nowuo maber kendo maliw.

And the heart of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.

5 Ok nochak oluong ngʼat mofuwo ni ngʼat malongʼo, kata ngʼat ma ja-miganga ni ngʼat ma ogen.

The fool shall no more be called noble, nor the churl said to be bountiful.

6 Nimar ngʼat mofuwo wacho weche mofuwo, kendo opongʼ gi richo: Otimo timbe mag richo kendo olando miriambo kuom Jehova Nyasaye; mi omon joma odenyo chamo gik monego gicham kendo joma riyo oloyo otamoe pi.

For the fool will speak folly, and his heart will work iniquity, to practice profaneness, and to utter error against Jehovah, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.

7 Ngʼat ma achach yorene richo, osiko ka chunye chano mana timo richo, kotieko jodhier gi miriambo kata obedo ni ywak mar joma ni e chandruok nikare.

And the instruments of the churl are evil. He devises wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaks right.

8 To ngʼat mogen loso weche mabeyo kendo kuom timbe makare miyo ochungʼ motegno.

But a noble man devises noble things, and in noble things he shall continue.

9 Un mon maparo ni odak e ngima maber, auru malo kendo uwinj wachna, un nyiri modak gi kwe, winjuru gima awacho!

Rise up, ye women who are at ease. Hear my voice, ye careless daughters. Give ear to my speech.

10 Bangʼ higa achiel, un ma uparo nudak mokwe, kibaji nogou; cham ok nochiegi, kendo keyo mar mzabibu ok nobedie.

For ye shall be troubled days beyond a year, ye careless women. For the vintage shall fail; the ingathering shall not come.

11 Beduru moluor un mon maparo nodak e ngima maber; beduru mokuyo, un nyiri maparo nodak gi kwe! Lonyreuru duge kendo utwe piende gugru enungou.

Tremble, ye women who are at ease. Be troubled, ye careless ones. Strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins.

12 Ywaguru ka ugoyo agogu nikech puothe momewo, nikech olembe mag mzabibu,

They shall beat upon the breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.

13 kendo kuom piny joga, piny mopongʼ gi kuthe kod pedo, ee, ywaguru udi ma yande mor opongʼo kendo kuom dala maduongʼ mar mor gi ilo masani odongʼ nono.

Thorns and briers shall come up on the land of my people, yea, upon all the houses of joy in the joyous city.

14 Kama ochiel motegno nojwangʼ, dala maduongʼ nodongʼ gunda; kama ochiel motegno mag siro lweny kod kar ngʼicho nodongʼ kama punda bukore, kod kar kwadh jamni,

For the palace shall be forsaken. The populous city shall be deserted. The hill and the watch-tower shall be for dens forever, a joy of wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks,

15 nyaka chop Roho ol kuomwa koa malo, kendo piny motwo nolokre kuonde mamiyo, mi kuonde mamiyo nonenre ka bungu.

until the Spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be esteemed as a forest.

16 Adiera nobedie e piny motwo, mi tim makare nodag e puodho mamiyo.

Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field.

17 Olemb tim makare nobed kwe; to tim makare nokel horuok gi chir nyaka chiengʼ.

And the work of righteousness shall be peace, and the effect of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.

18 Joga nodag kuonde ma kwe nitie, e mier moger motegno, kendo kuonde ma kwe nitie ma koko ongee.

And my people shall abide in a peaceable habitation, and in safe dwellings, and in quiet resting-places.

19 Kata obedo ni pe nolwer bunge kendo dala maduongʼ nopodh chuth,

But it shall hail in the downfall of the forest, and the city shall be utterly laid low.

20 to mano kaka inibed ngʼama ogwedhi, ka ichwoyo chambi e bath aore duto, kendo ka iweyo jambi kod punde magi wuotho awuotha kaka ohero.

Blessed are ye who sow beside all waters, who send forth the feet of the ox and the donkey.
