Isaya 38

1 E ndalogo Hezekia nobedo matuo kendo nohewore. Janabi Isaya wuod Amoz nodhi ire mowachone niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Los weche mag dalani maber nikech ndaloni mar tho ochopo kendo ok inichangi.”

About that time was Hezekiah sicke vnto the death, and the Prophet Isaiah sonne of Amoz came vnto him, and sayd vnto him, Thus sayth the Lord, Put thine house in an order, for thou shalt dye, and not liue.

2 Hezekia nolokore kongʼiyo kor ot mi olamo Jehova Nyasaye kama,

Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the Lord,

3 “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, parie kaka asewuotho e nyimi gi adiera kod chuny modimbore kendo asetimo gigo makare e nyim wangʼi.” Bangʼe Hezekia noywak malit.

And saide, I beseeche thee, Lord, remember nowe howe I haue walked before thee in trueth, and with a perfite heart, and haue done that which is good in thy sight: and Hezekiah wept sore.

4 Eka wach Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Isaya kama:

Then came the worde of the Lord to Isaiah, saying,

5 “Dhi mondo inyis Hezekia ni, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Daudi kwaru wacho: Asewinjo lemoni kendo aseneno pi wangʼi; omiyo abiro medi ngima moromo higni apar gabich.

Goe, and say vnto Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord God of Dauid thy father, I haue heard thy prayer, and seene thy teares: behold, I will adde vnto thy dayes fifteene yeeres.

6 Kendo abiro resi kaachiel gi dala maduongʼni e lwet ruodh Asuria. Abiro rito dala maduongʼni.

And I will deliuer thee out of the hand of the King of Asshur, and this citie: for I will defende this citie.

7 “‘Ma e ranyisi ma Jehova Nyasaye nomiyi ni obiro timo gima osesingo:

And this signe shalt thou haue of ye Lord, that ye Lord will do this thing that he hath spoken,

8 Abiro dwoko tipo mar wangʼ chiengʼ manie raidhi mar dhood Ahaz ondamo apar chien.’” Omiyo wangʼ chiengʼ ne odok ondamo apar chien e raidhi mane oselorie.

Beholde, I will bring againe the shadowe of the degrees (whereby it is gone downe in the diall of Ahaz by the sunne) ten degrees backeward: so the sunne returned by tenne degrees, by the which degrees it was gone downe.

9 Magi e weche mag Hezekia ruodh Juda bangʼ kane osechango e tuone:

The writing of Hezekiah King of Iudah, when he had bene sicke, and was recouered of his sickenesse.

10 Ne apenjora niya, “E ndalo mag ber mar ngimana, bende onego bed ni akalo e rangeye mag tho kendo hikena modongʼ duto gol kuoma?” (Sheol h7585)

I saide in the cutting off of my dayes, I shall goe to the gates of the graue: I am depriued of the residue of my yeeres. (Sheol h7585)

11 Ne awacho niya, “Ok anachak ane Jehova Nyasaye owuon, e piny joma ngima; bende ok anachak aket genona kuom dhano wadwa, kata bedo gi joma koro odak e pinyni.

I said, I shall not see the Lord, euen the Lord in the land of the liuing: I shall see man no more among the inhabitants of the world.

12 Osepudh oda mi owit mabor mana kaka igolo kiru mar jakwath. Ngimana osengʼad machiek mana kaka jatwengʼo dolo usi mabed machiek kendo asandora pile ka pile, odiechiengʼ kod otieno.

Mine habitation is departed, and is remoued from me, like a shepheards tent: I haue cut off like a weauer my life: he will cut me off from the height: from day to night, thou wilt make an ende of me.

13 Aywak ka rem ohewa nyaka piny ru, chokena otur mana ka gima sibuor ema oturo, isanda chakre okinyi nyaka odhiambo.

I rekoned to the morning: but he brake all my bones, like a lion: from day to night wilt thou make an ende of me.

14 Ne aywak mana ka opija kata ka ongo-wangʼ kendo adengo mana ka akuru. Wengena ne otho bo kane arango polo. An gi chandruok, yaye Ruoth Nyasaye, bi iresa!”

Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourne as a doue: mine eies were lift vp on high: O Lord, it hath oppressed me, comfort me.

15 To an dawach angʼo? Osewuoyo koda mi en owuon osetimona ma, abiro wuotho kadembora e ngimana duto nikech lit manie chunya.

What shall I say? for he hath said it to me, and he hath done it: I shall walke weakely all my yeeres in the bitternesse of my soule.

16 Yaye Ruoth Nyasaye wecheni emomiyo dhano ngima; chunya yudo ngima kuom wecheni. Iseduogona ngimana mi koro iyiena mondo adagi.

O Lord, to them that ouerliue them, and to all that are in them, the life of my spirite shalbe knowen, that thou causedst me to sleepe and hast giuen life to me.

17 Chutho chandruok duto maseyudo okelona mana kony. Nikech herani mogundho iseresa e kethruok; bende isewito richona duto kadiengʼeyi.

Beholde, for felicitie I had bitter griefe, but it was thy pleasure to deliuer my soule from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sinnes behinde thy backe.

18 Joma ni e liel ok nyal paki, tho ok nyal wero wendi mar pak, chutho joma dhi e bur ok nyal geno adiera mari. (Sheol h7585)

For the graue cannot confesse thee: death cannot praise thee: they that goe downe into the pit, cannot hope for thy trueth. (Sheol h7585)

19 To joma ngima, kende ema nyalo goyoni erokamano, mana kaka atimo kawuononi; wuone bende nyiso nyithindgi adiera mari.

But the liuing, the liuing, he shall confesse thee, as I doe this day: the father to the children shall declare thy trueth.

20 Jehova Nyasaye biro resa, kendo wanawer wende pak gi nyiduonge, ndalo duto mag ngimawa ei hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye.

The Lord was ready to saue me: therefore we will sing my song, all the dayes of our life in the House of the Lord.

21 Isaya nowacho niya, “Swag ngʼowu kendo iwirie kama bur okuodono, to obiro chango.”

Then said Isaiah, Take a lumpe of drye figs and lay it vpon the boyle, and he shall recouer.

22 Hezekia noyudo osepenjo, “Ere gima biro bedona ranyisi ni abiro dhi e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye?”

Also Hezekiah had said, What is ye signe, that I shall goe vp into the House of the Lord?
