< 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 His anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him, and to loose the loins of kings; to open the doors before him, and that the gates may 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 make the crooked places straight; I will break in pieces the doors of brass, and cut in sunder 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 the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I am the LORD, who call thee by thy name, even 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 Jacob My servant, and Israel Mine elect, I have called thee by thy name, I have surnamed thee, though 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, beside Me there is no God; I have girded thee, though 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 from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside 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 am the LORD, that doeth 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, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness; let the earth open, that they may bring forth salvation, and let her cause righteousness to spring up together; I the LORD have created it.
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 unto him that striveth with his Maker, as a potsherd with the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say to him that fashioned it: 'What makest thou?' Or: 'Thy work, it hath no hands'?
10 Inine malit in ngʼat mawachone wuon-gi ni, ‘Angʼo minywoloni?’ Kata ne min-gi ni, ‘En angʼo maninywoloni?’
Woe unto him that saith unto his father: 'Wherefore begettest thou?' Or to a woman: 'Wherefore travailest thou?'
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, and his Maker: Ask Me of the things that are to come; concerning My sons, and concerning the work of My hands, command ye 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, even I, have made the earth, and created man upon it; I, even My hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.
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 roused him up in victory, and I make level all his ways; he shall build My city, and he shall let Mine exiles go free, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD 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 the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine; they shall go after thee, in chains they shall come over; and they shall fall down unto thee, they shall make supplication unto thee: Surely God is in thee, and there is none else, there is no other God.
15 Adiera in Nyasaye modak apanda, yaye Nyasaye kendo Jawar mar Israel.
Verily Thou art a God that hidest Thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.
16 Jogo duto maloso nyiseche manono noyud wichkuot kod achaya; kendo giduto gininwangʼ wichkuot.
They shall be ashamed, yea, confounded, all of them; they shall go in confusion together that are makers of idols.
17 To Israel Jehova Nyasaye noresi gi warruok manyaka chiengʼ; wiwu ok nokuodi bende ok nochau nyaka chiengʼ.
O Israel, that art saved by the LORD with an everlasting salvation; ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
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, He is God; that formed the earth and made it, He established it, He created it not a waste, He formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD, and there is none else.
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 place of the land of darkness; I said not unto the seed of Jacob: 'Seek ye Me in vain'; I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
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, draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations; they have no knowledge that carry the wood of their graven image, and pray unto 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.
Declare ye, and bring them near, yea, let them take counsel together: Who hath announced this from ancient time, and declared it of old? Have not I the LORD? And there is no God else beside Me, a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me.
22 “Biuru ira un joma oa e tungʼ piny gi tungʼ piny nimar unuyud resruok; nimar an Nyasaye, kendo onge moro amora.
Look unto Me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is none else.
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.
By Myself have I sworn, the word is gone forth from My mouth in righteousness, and shall not come back, that unto Me every knee shall bow, 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.
Only in the LORD, shall one say of Me, is victory and strength; even to Him shall men come in confusion, all they that were incensed against Him.
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 shall glory.
