Isaya 34
1 Suduru machiegni, un ogendini kendo chikuru itu; winjuru, un ogendini! Mad piny kod gik moko manie iye winja!
You people of all nations, come near and listen and pay careful attention. I want the world and everything that is in it to hear what I say.
2 Jehova Nyasaye nigi ich wangʼ kod ogendini duto; mirimbe ochomo jolweny mag-gi duto. Obiro tiekogi duto, mi nochiwgi mondo otiekgi.
Yahweh is angry with [the people of] all nations; he is (furious/very angry) with all their armies. He has decided that they must be destroyed, and he will slaughter them.
3 Jogi monegi nowit oko, mi ringregi nodungʼ kendo rembgi nopongʼ gode.
Their corpses will not be buried, and [as a result] their corpses will stink, and their blood will [fill the streams that] flow down the mountains.
4 Sulwe duto manie polo noleny nono, polo noban mana ka kalatas, gik moko duto manie polo malo nolwar, mana ka it mzabibu moner, kata ka olemb ngʼowu ma kundi ochwowo.
The sky will disappear like [SIM] a scroll that is rolled up [and thrown away]. Stars will fall [from the sky] like [SIM] [withered] leaves fall from grapevines, [or] like [SIM] shriveled figs fall from fig trees.
5 Liganglana osetieko tichne e kor lwasi, neuru, olor mondo ongʼad bura ne Edom, oganda ma asetieko chuth.
When Yahweh has finished his work of destroying objects in the sky, he will punish [the people of] Edom, that people-group that he has said must be destroyed/exterminated.
6 Ligangla mar Jehova Nyasaye opongʼ gi remo, kendo boche ogawore kuome ma gin, remb rombe kod diek, kaachiel gi boche moa e nyiroke mag imbe. Nimar Jehova Nyasaye nigi misango Bozra kod nek ei Edom.
[It is as though] Yahweh has a sword that is covered with blood and fat— the blood of lambs and goats and the fat of the kidneys of rams to be sacrificed. [It is as though] Yahweh will offer a sacrifice in [the city of] Bozrah [and kill many people] in other cities in Edom.
7 Kendo jope, gi nyirwedhi kod rwedhi madongo nopodh kodgi. Pinygi nopongʼ gi remo, kendo boche noum buru.
[Even] wild oxen will be killed, as well as young calves and big bulls. The ground will be soaked with blood, and the dirt will be covered with the fat of those animals.
8 Nimar Jehova Nyasaye ni kod odiechienge mar chulo kuor, ma en higa mar chiwo kum ne jogo, mosetimo marach ne Sayun.
That will be the time when Yahweh gets revenge for what those people did to the people of Judah.
9 Aore mag Edom nobar okak, lopene nolokre lot maliet mawengʼo, kendo pinye nowangʼ duto!
The streams in Edom will be full of burning pitch/tar, and the ground will be covered with burning sulfur.
10 Ok nokwe odiechiengʼ gotieno; iro mare nodum kanyo nyaka chiengʼ. Koa e tiengʼ moro nyaka machielo nodongʼ gunda; onge ngʼat manochak oluwe kendo.
Yahweh will never finish punishing Edom with fire; the smoke will rise forever. No one will ever live in that land, and no one will [even] travel through it.
11 Nobed kama winj tula rutoe kendo agak odakie. Nyasaye nopim timbe maricho mag Edom kod ketho mage.
Ravens and various kinds of owls and small animals will live there. Yahweh will measure that land carefully: He will measure it to [to decide where] to cause chaos and destruction.
12 Jodonge ok nobed gi gimoro miluongo ni pinyruoth, nyithi ruoth nolal nono.
There will be no princes; the people who have authority will have no kingdom to rule.
13 Kuthe ema noyugno e utege madongo, aila kod pedo nobed ohingane. Enobed piny mojwangʼ ma ondiegi ema odakie kendo kuonde ma tula odakie.
The deserted palaces and fortified buildings will be full of thorns and thistles. The ruins will be a place for jackals/wolves and owls to live.
14 Gi bungu norom gondiegi kuno, kendo diek mag bungu noywagne jowetegi; kanyo bende gik malich mag otieno noyud kar yweyo.
Animals that live in the desert and hyenas/wolves will be there, and wild goats will bleat/call to each other. There will also be creatures/animals that [roam around] at night.
15 Tula noger ode kanyo monywol tongʼ, motogi kendo norit nyithinde, koumo e tipo mar bwombene; kanyo bende ema otenga nochokre, moro ka moro gi nyawadgi.
Owls will make their nests there and lay their eggs in the nests; and when the eggs hatch, the mother birds will cover them [with their wings]. There will also be falcons/hawks there, each with its mate.
16 Ngʼii e kitap Jehova Nyasaye kendo isom: Onge moro kuomgi kata achiel manobed maonge, kendo moro ka moro nobed gi nyawadgi. Nimar osegolo chik gi dhoge owuon, kendo Roho mare ema nochokgi kanyakla.
If you read what is written in the book that contains messages from Yahweh, you will find out what he will do [in Edom]. All of those animals and birds will be there, and each one will have a mate, because that is what Yahweh has promised, and his Spirit will cause them [all] to gather [there].
17 Opogogi kuondegi; kendo lwetene chiwogi gi rapim. Enobed margi nyaka chiengʼ mi gidag kanyo ndalo duto mag ngimagi.
He has decided what parts of the land [of Edom] each will live in, and those are the places where each bird or animal will live. Their descendants will possess those areas forever, throughout all generations.
