Isaya 5
1 Abiro wero wend ngʼat ma ahero, wer mar puothe mar mzabibu niya: Jal ma ahero ne nigi puoth mzabibu e bath got kama omewo.
Now will I sing to my well beloved a song of my beloved touching his vineyard. My well beloved has a vineyard in a very fruitful hill:
2 Ne opure maber mogolo kite duto manie iye kendo opidhoe olembe mabeyo ahinya moyier. Ne ogero kama otingʼore gi malo mar ngʼicho e chuny puodhono bende noloso kama ibiyoe mzabibu. Eka nomanyo olembe mabeyo to kata kamano neginyago mana olembe maricho.
And he fenced it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the middle of it, and also made a wine press therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.
3 “Koro un joma odak Jerusalem to gi jogo modak Juda; ngʼadieuru bura e kinda kod puotha mar mzabibu.
And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, between me and my vineyard.
4 Angʼo machielo mane onego otim e puotha mar mzabibu maloyo mano mane atimone? Kane adwaro olembe mabeyo to angʼo mane omiyo onyago mana mago maricho?
What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? why, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes?
5 Koro abiro nyisou gima abiro timo ne puotha mar mzabibu: Abiro golo chiende oko, kendo ibiro kethe, abiro muko ohingane kendo nonyone piny.
And now go to; I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away the hedge thereof, and it shall be eaten up; and break down the wall thereof, and it shall be trodden down:
6 Bende anaweye kojwangʼore ma ok olose kata doye kendo ongʼono, kod kuthe ema nodongie. Abiro chiko boche polo mondo kik koth ochwene.”
And I will lay it waste: it shall not be pruned, nor dig; but there shall come up briers and thorns: I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain on it.
7 Puoth mzabibu mar Jehova Nyasaye Maratego en od jo-Israel, kod jo-Juda e puodho mamiye mor. Osedwaro mondo ngʼado bura makare obedie, to oneno mana nek kendo osedwaro mondo one tim makare, to owinjo mana ywak mar lit.
For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for judgment, but behold oppression; for righteousness, but behold a cry.
8 Unune malit, un joma mayo ji utegi ma gisegero kendo umayo ji puothegi, maonge kama odongʼ ma udongʼ ka udak kendu e pinyno.
Woe to them that join house to house, that lay field to field, till there be no place, that they may be placed alone in the middle of the earth!
9 Jehova Nyasaye Maratego osewacho ayanga ka awinjo ni: “Kata kamano ute madongo biro dongʼ gunda, kendo ute madongo moger mabeyo biro dongʼ maonge joma odakie.
In my ears said the LORD of hosts, Of a truth many houses shall be desolate, even great and fair, without inhabitant.
10 Heka apar mar mzabibu nogol mana olemo karaya achiel kende, kendo kodhi moromo gorogoro nonyag cham maromo debe kende.”
Yes, ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and the seed of an homer shall yield an ephah.
11 Unune malit un joma chiewo gokinyi kulawo kuonde kongʼo, un ma ubudho kuneno nyaka chuny otieno ka umer maonge rieko.
Woe to them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them!
12 Gitimo nyasigi gi kongʼo, gi nyatiti, gi orutu, gi oyieke kod asili, to ok gidewo gik ma Jehova Nyasaye osetimo bende ok giluoro tij lwete.
And the harp, and the viol, the tabret, and pipe, and wine, are in their feasts: but they regard not the work of the LORD, neither consider the operation of his hands.
13 Omiyo koro joga biro dhi e twech nikech bedo maonge winjo; jotendgi kech biro nego, Kendo oganda modongʼ to riyo ema biro nego.
Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honorable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.
14 Kuom mano piny joma otho ongʼamo dhoge malach ka dande oyawore malich; kendo enomuony jotelo kod oganda mamoko e kinde ma gikokee gi mor. (Sheol h7585)
Therefore hell has enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoices, shall descend into it. (Sheol h7585)
15 Omiyo dhano nodwok piny kendo ogendini duto nogol tekogi, kendo timbe jonjore notieki.
And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled:
16 To Jehova Nyasaye Maratego notingʼ malo gi timne makare, kendo Nyasaye maler nonyis lerne gi timne makare.
But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.
17 Eka rombe nokwa e legegi giwegi; to nyirombe nokwa e gundni mane mag jomoko.
Then shall the lambs feed after their manner, and the waste places of the fat ones shall strangers eat.
18 Unune malit un joma osiko katimo richo ka umede gi miriambo, kod timbe anjawo,
Woe to them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as it were with a cart rope:
19 kod joma wacho ni joga niya, “Nyasaye mondo oreti, kendo otim gima odwaro timo, mondo wanene. We gima Jal Maler mar Israel dwaro timo otimre mondo wangʼeye.”
That say, Let him make speed, and hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, that we may know it!
20 Mano kaka nobed malit ne joma luongo tim mamono ni ber to tim maber ni rach; jogo maketo mudho kar ler to kar ler gikete mudho, joma keto gik makech kar mamit to mamit giketo kar makech.
Woe to them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
21 Mano kaka nobed malit ne jogo mariek e wengegi giwegi kendo kwano ni ongʼeyo gik moko duto.
Woe to them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
22 Mano kaka nobed malit ne thuondi mag madho kongʼo kendo molony e ruwo kongʼo makech.
Woe to them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink:
23 Un ma uweyo joketho nikech asoya, to joma onge ketho ema utamo e adiera margi.
Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!
24 Kuom mano kaka lew mach wangʼo yugi kendo kaka lum motwo lal nono e mach, e kaka tiendgi notow bende maua mawuok e itgi nolwar mana ka buru, nikech gisedagi chik mar Jehova Nyasaye Maratego kendo chayo wach Jal Maler mar Israel.
Therefore as the fire devours the stubble, and the flame consumes the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust: because they have cast away the law of the LORD of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 Kuom mano Jehova Nyasaye osekecho gi joge; kendo oserieyo bade kuomgi monegogi. Gode yiengni kendo ringre joma otho odhurore e wangʼ yore ka yugi. To kata bed ni magi duto osetimore, to mirimbe pod ok okwe, nimar pod okecho kodgi.
Therefore is the anger of the LORD kindled against his people, and he has stretched forth his hand against them, and has smitten them: and the hills did tremble, and their carcasses were torn in the middle of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
26 Otingʼo bandera malo ne ogendini moa mabor, kendo ogoyo tungʼ koluongo jogo moa e tunge piny. Gibiro mapiyo piyo ka giringo matek.
And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss to them from the end of the earth: and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly:
27 Onge kata mana ngʼato achiel kuomgi ma ol kata machwanyore, bende onge kata ngʼato achiel kuomgi ma nindo tero, bende onge moro ma okanda ombekni e nungone kata ma tond wuochene ochot.
None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the lace of their shoes be broken:
28 Asernigi bith bende atungegi duto oywa motegno, kendo faresegi ombongʼ tiendgi ojingʼ, tiend gechegi winyore ka kalausi.
Whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent, their horses’ hoofs shall be counted like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind:
29 Giruto ka sibuor kendo gingʼur ka sibuoche matindo, bende gimor ka gidwaro mako le, mi gitingʼ-gi e dhogi maonge ngʼama nyalo resogi.
Their roaring shall be like a lion, they shall roar like young lions: yes, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and shall carry it away safe, and none shall deliver it.
30 Odiechiengno ginirut kuome mana ka mor mar ataro. Kendo ka ngʼato ongʼiyo pinyno to none mudho gi kuyo; kata mana ler mar chiengʼ boche polo noum.
And in that day they shall roar against them like the roaring of the sea: and if one look to the land, behold darkness and sorrow, and the light is darkened in the heavens thereof.
