< Isaya 45 >

1 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wachone Sairas, ngʼate moseyiero niya, “Asemako lweti ma korachwich, mondo ilo ogendini manie nyimi, kendo iketh teko mag ruodhi gigegi mag lweny, mondo iyaw dhoudi e nyime maonge dhorangeye mibiro lor.
Thus saith the Lord to my anointed Cyrus, whose right hand I have taken hold of, to subdue nations before his face, and to turn the backs of kings, and to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut.
2 Abiro telo e nyimi kendo abiro pieyo gode madongo mogangore; anamuk dhorangeye mag nyinyo kendo anangʼad ndigni mag dhorangeye mag chuma.
I will go before thee, and will humble the great ones of the earth: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and will burst the bars of iron.
3 Anamiyi mwandu mopandi e mudho, mwandu mokan kuonde mopondo, mondo omi ingʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel, maluongi gi nyingi.
And I will give thee hidden treasures, and the concealed riches of secret places: that thou mayest know that I am the Lord who call thee by thy name, the God of Israel.
4 Nikech Jakobo jatichna, kendo nikech Israel mayiero, aseluongi gi nyingi kendo aseketo kuomi nonro mar luor, kata obedo ni ok iseyanga kamano.
For the sake of my servant Jacob, and Israel my elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have made a likeness of thee, and thou hast not known me.
5 An e Jehova Nyasaye, kendo moro onge; onge Nyasaye moro makmana an. Anamiyi teko, kata obedo ni pok iyanga kamano,
I am the Lord, and there is none else: there is no God, besides me: I girded thee, and thou hast not known me:
6 mondo omi ji ongʼe ni koa wuok chiengʼ nyaka podho chiengʼ, onge ngʼat moro amora makmana an. An e Jehova Nyasaye, kendo moro onge.
That they may know who are from the rising of the sun, and they who are from the west, that there is none besides me. I am the Lord, and there is none else:
7 An ema ne achweyo ler kod mudho, akelo gweth kod masira bende; An, Jehova Nyasaye ema timo magi duto.
I form the light, and create darkness, I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord that do all these things.
8 “Un polo lwaruru tim makare mondo ochwer kaka koth e piny. Un piny yawreuru malach mondo warruok obi, mondo tim makare odongi e piny, an Jehova Nyasaye achweyo magi duto.
Drop down dew, ye heavens, from above, and let the clouds rain the just: let the earth be opened, and bud forth a saviour: and let justice spring up together: I the Lord have created him.
9 “Mano kaka ngʼama piem gi Jachwechne none malit, ngʼat ma en mana lowo mochwe, mantiere e kind lope mamoko. Bende lowo nyalo wachone jachwechne ni, ‘En angʼo ma iloso?’ Bende tich lweti nyalo wachoni ni, Onge gima iloso?
Woe to him that gainsayeth his maker, a sherd of the earthen pots: shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it: What art thou making, and thy work is without hands?
10 Inine malit in ngʼat mawachone wuon-gi ni, ‘Angʼo minywoloni?’ Kata ne min-gi ni, ‘En angʼo maninywoloni?’
Woe to him that saith to his father: Why begettest thou? and to the woman: Why dost thou bring forth?
11 “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Jal Maler mar Israel, kendo Jachwechne wacho: Kuom gigo mabiro timore, bende inyalo penja kuom nyithinda, kata miya chik kuom tich lweta?
Thus saith the Lord the Holy One of Israel, his maker: Ask me of things to come, concerning my children, and concerning the work of my hands give ye charge to me.
12 An ema ne achweyo piny kendo ne achweyo dhano e iye. Ne achweyo polo malach gi lweta awuon, kendo an ema ne aketo gik moko duto manie kor polo.
I made the earth: and I created man upon it: my hand stretched forth the heavens, and I have commanded all their host.
13 Kuom ratiro mara abiro tingʼo Sairas malo kama: Anami yorene duto oriere tir. Enochak oger dala maduongʼ kendo omi joga manoter e twech obed thuolo, to ok en yor chudo kata yudo mich moro amora, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego owacho.”
I have raised him up to justice, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and let go my captives, not for ransom, nor for presents, saith the Lord the God of hosts.
14 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Gik moa Misri gi gige ohala mag Kush, to gi jo-Sabea ma roboche nobi iri, kendo ginibed magi; ginilu bangʼi ka gibiro, ka moro ka moro otwe gi nyororo. Ginikulre e nyimi kendo ka gisayi, kagiwacho ni, ‘Adiera Nyasaye ni kodi, kendo onge moro amora; onge Nyasaye moro amora.’”
Thus saith the Lord: The labour of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and of Sabaim, men of stature shall come over to thee, and shall be thins: they shall walk after thee, they shall go bound with manacles: and they shall worship thee, and shall make supplication to thee: only in thee is God, and there is no God besides thee.
15 Adiera in Nyasaye modak apanda, yaye Nyasaye kendo Jawar mar Israel.
Verily thou art a hidden God, the God of Israel the saviour.
16 Jogo duto maloso nyiseche manono noyud wichkuot kod achaya; kendo giduto gininwangʼ wichkuot.
They are all confounded and ashamed: the forgers of errors are gone together into confusion.
17 To Israel Jehova Nyasaye noresi gi warruok manyaka chiengʼ; wiwu ok nokuodi bende ok nochau nyaka chiengʼ.
Israel is saved in the Lord with as eternal salvation: you shall not be confounded, and you shall not be ashamed for ever and ever.
18 Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasaye mane ochweyo polo, kendo mane ochweyo piny mondo ji odagie to ok ni mondo piny obed maonge ji, owacho niya: “An e Jehova Nyasaye kendo onge moro machielo.
For thus saith the Lord that created the heavens, God himself that formed the earth, and made it, the very maker thereof: he did not create it in vain: he formed it to be inhabited. I am the Lord, and there is no other.
19 Ok asewuoyo kama opondo, kata kama otimo mudho; ok asewachone nyikwa Jakobo ni, ‘Manyauru kayiem nono.’ An, Jehova Nyasaye, awacho adiera; awacho gima kare.
I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I have not said to the seed of Jacob: Seek me in vain. I am the Lord that speak justice, that declare right things.
20 “Chokreuru kanyakla kendo ubi; chokreuru, un joma otony moa e pinje. Joma ofuwo gin jogo mawuotho kotingʼo nyiseche mopa mag yien, malamo nyiseche ma ok nyal resogi.
Assemble yourselves, and come, and draw near together, ye that are saved of the Gentiles: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven work, and pray to a god that cannot save.
21 Wach gima biro timore kendo yange e lela mondo mi gilalre kanyakla. En ngʼa mane ofwenyo wachni chon kendo mane owacho chon ni obiro timore? Donge ne en an, Jehova Nyasaye? Kendo onge Nyasaye moro makmana an, Nyasaye makare kendo ma Jawar; onge moro amora makmana an.
Tell ye, and come, and consult together: who hath declared this from the beginning, who hath foretold this from that time? Have not I the Lord, and there is no God else besides me? A just God and a saviour, there is none besides me.
22 “Biuru ira un joma oa e tungʼ piny gi tungʼ piny nimar unuyud resruok; nimar an Nyasaye, kendo onge moro amora.
Be converted to me, and you shall be saved, all ye ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is no other.
23 Asesingora an awuon, kendo dhoga osewacho gi ratiro duto wach ma ok bi kethi ni: Ji duto nogo chong-gi piny e nyima; kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato nosingre gi nyinga.
I have sworn by myself, the word of justice shall go out of my mouth, and shall not return: For every knee shall be bowed to me, and every tongue shall swear.
24 Giniwach kuoma ni, ‘Kuom Jehova Nyasaye kende ema iyudoe adieri kod teko.’” Jogo duto manopiem kode nochungʼ e nyime gi wichkuot.
Therefore shall he say: In the Lord are my justices and empire: they shall come to him, and all that resist him shall be confounded.
25 To kuom Jehova Nyasaye, nyikwa Israel duto noyudi ka joma nikare kendo man-gi duongʼ.
In the Lord shall all the seed of Israel be justified and praised.
