< Isaya 32 >

1 Winjuru, Ruoth nobed gi loch makare kendo jotelo nobed gi telo mar adier.
Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes 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.
A man shall be as a hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the storm, as streams of water in a dry place, as the shade of a large rock in a weary land.
3 Eka wenge joma neno ok nochak ogengʼ, kendo joma ochiko itgi nowinj wach.
The eyes of those who see will not be dim, and the ears of those who hear will listen.
4 Chuny ngʼat mamuomore nowinj wach gi tiende kendo ngʼat ma radwal nowuo maber kendo maliw.
The heart of the rash will understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers will 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 will no longer be called noble, nor the scoundrel be highly respected.
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 profanity, and to utter error against the LORD, 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.
The ways of the scoundrel are evil. He devises wicked plans to destroy the humble with lying words, even when the needy speaks right.
8 To ngʼat mogen loso weche mabeyo kendo kuom timbe makare miyo ochungʼ motegno.
But the noble devises noble things, and he will continue in noble things.
9 Un mon maparo ni odak e ngima maber, auru malo kendo uwinj wachna, un nyiri modak gi kwe, winjuru gima awacho!
Rise up, you women who are at ease! Hear my voice! You 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 days beyond a year you will be troubled, you careless women; for the vintage will fail. The harvest won’t 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, you women who are at ease! Be troubled, you careless ones! Strip yourselves, make yourselves naked, and put sackcloth on your waist.
12 Ywaguru ka ugoyo agogu nikech puothe momewo, nikech olembe mag mzabibu,
Beat your 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 will come up on my people’s land; yes, on 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 will be forsaken. The populous city will be deserted. The hill and the watchtower will be for dens forever, a delight for 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 is poured on us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, and the fruitful field is considered a forest.
16 Adiera nobedie e piny motwo, mi tim makare nodag e puodho mamiyo.
Then justice will dwell in the wilderness; and righteousness will remain in the fruitful field.
17 Olemb tim makare nobed kwe; to tim makare nokel horuok gi chir nyaka chiengʼ.
The work of righteousness will 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.
My people will live in a peaceful habitation, in safe dwellings, and in quiet resting places,
19 Kata obedo ni pe nolwer bunge kendo dala maduongʼ nopodh chuth,
though hail flattens the forest, and the city is leveled completely.
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 you who sow beside all waters, who send out the feet of the ox and the donkey.
