< Isaya 50 >

1 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho, Ere baruwa mar weruok manyiso nine ariembo minu? Koso ngʼato nitie mane achiwene mondo achulgo gope ma an-go? Nousu nikech richou; kendo minu noriembi nikech ketho mage.
Thus says the LORD, "Where is the bill of your mother's divorce, with which I have put her away? or which of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Look, for your iniquities were you sold, and for your transgressions was your mother put away.
2 Kane abiro iru, angʼo momiyo ne ok ayudo ngʼato? Kane aluongou, ere gima omiyo ne ok ngʼato odwoka? Koso uparo ni bada ne chiek ma ok nyal konyou? Uparo ni aonge gi teko mar resou? Wuoyona matin nomiyo nam oduono, kendo ne amiyo aore obedo piny motwo mi rech manie eigi otho kendo otop nikech onge mar pi.
Why, when I came, was there no man? When I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it can't redeem? or have I no power to deliver? Look, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stink, because there is no water, and die for thirst.
3 Aloko polo doko maratengʼ ti mana ka gima aume gi pien gugru.
I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering."
4 Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto osemiyo apongʼ kod puonj, mondo omi angʼe wach manyalo hoyogo ngʼama ni e chandruok. Ochiewa pile okinyi kokinyi, kendo oyawo ita mondo abed gi winjo ka ngʼat mipuonjo.
The LORD has given me the tongue of those who are taught, that I may know how to sustain with a word him who is weary: he wakens morning by morning, he wakens my ear to hear as those who are taught.
5 Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto oseyawo pacha kendo ok asetamore winjo wachne; bende ok asedok chien.
The LORD has opened my ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away backward.
6 Ne achiwora ne joma goya, ne joma pudho yie tika; kendo ne ok apando wangʼa ne joma nyiera kendo ngʼulo kuoma olawo.
I gave my back to those who strike, and my cheeks to those who tore out my beard; I did not cover my face from insults and spitting.
7 Nikech Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto konya, ok anayud wichkuot. Kuom mano, asechomo wangʼa tir kuome maonge luoro kendo angʼeyo maber ni ok nayud achaya.
But the LORD will help me; therefore I have not been confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be disappointed.
8 Jal mabiro ngʼadona bura ni koda. Kare koro en ngʼa manyalo donjona? Owuogane oko koro! En ngʼa modonjona? Owuogane okwera.
He is near who justifies me; who will bring charges against me? Let us stand up together: who is my adversary? Let him come near to me.
9 En mana Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ema konya. En ngʼa mabiro ngʼadona bura? Gibiro ti mana ka law, ma olwenda ochamo.
Look, the LORD will help me; who is he who shall condemn me? Look, all they shall wax old as a garment, the moth shall eat them up.
10 En ngʼatno e dieru moluoro Jehova Nyasaye kendo mako weche jatichne? Weuru ngʼat mawuotho e mudho kaonge ler ogen kuom nying Jehova Nyasaye kendo osud machiegni gi Nyasache.
Who is among you who fears the LORD, who listens to the voice of his servant? He who walks in darkness, and has no light, let him trust in the name of the LORD, and rely on his God.
11 To koro un jogo duto ma jomok mach kendo moko mirni maliel, dhiuru mondo uwuothi e ler mar mach mumoko kata e ligek mach musemoko. Ma e gima udhi yudo e lweta: Ubiro rieru piny gi rem malit.
Look, all you who kindle a fire, who adorn yourselves with flaming arrows around yourselves; walk in the light of your fire, and among the flaming arrows that you have kindled. You shall have this of my hand; you shall lie down in sorrow.
