< Isaya 51 >

1 Winjauru, un mumanyo tim makare kendo udwaro Jehova Nyasaye: Ngʼi aneuru lwanda mane ogolue, ranganeuru kama ne okuny mogolue;
Hearken to me, ye that pursue righteousness. Ye that seek Jehovah! Look to the rock whence ye were hewn, To the pit-quarry whence ye were digged!
2 paruru Ibrahim wuonu kod Sara mane onywolou. Ne en mana ngʼat achiel kende kane aluonge kendo nagwedhe mi aloke oganda maduongʼ.
Look to Abraham your father, And to Sarah that bore you! For I called him when only one, And blessed him, and multiplied him.
3 Jehova Nyasaye biro hoyo chuny Sayun adier; kendo obiro bedo gi kech kuom kuondene mokethore; enolok kuondene motimo ongoro chal ka Eden, kendo kuondene modongʼ gunda chal ka puoth Jehova Nyasaye. Mor gi ilo kaachiel gi erokamano gi wer mamit noyud kuome.
Thus will Jehovah have pity upon Zion; He will have pity upon all her desolations. He will make her wilderness like Eden, Her desert like the garden of Jehovah. Joy and gladness shall be found therein; Thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
4 Winjauru un joga, chikuru itu un ogandana: Abiro golo chik kendo bucha makare nobed ler ne ogendini.
Hearken to me, O my people! And give ear to me, O my nation! For a law shall proceed from me, And I will establish my statutes for the light of the nations.
5 Adiera mara sudo machiegni piyo, warruokna chiegni, kendo abiro ngʼado bura makare ne ogendini. Joma odak e dho nembe biro ngʼiya ka gin gi geno ni abiro resogi gi tekona.
My help is near; my salvation goeth forth; My arm shall judge the nations; Distant lands shall wait for me, And in my arm shall they trust.
6 Tingʼ wangʼi malo ingʼi polo, bende rang piny gie polo, nikech polo nolal nono mana ka iro, to piny bende biro ti mana ka law kendo oganda modak e iye notho mana ka lwangʼni. To resruok makelo nosiki nyaka chiengʼ kendo adiera mara ok norum.
Lift up your eyes to the heavens, And look down upon the earth beneath! For the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, And the earth shall decay like a garment, And its inhabitants shall perish like flies. But my salvation shall endure forever, And my goodness shall not decay.
7 Winjauru un joma ongʼeyo tim makare, un oganda mondiko chikena e chunyu: Kik uluor weche midiro mag dhano kata luoro ayany mag ji.
Hearken to me, ye that know righteousness, The people in whose heart is my law! Fear ye not the reproach of men, Nor be disheartened by their revilings!
8 Nimar olwenda biro chamogi duto ka law; kendo kudni nochamgi mana ka yie rombe. To adiera mara nosiki manyaka chiengʼ, kendo resruok makelo ok norum e kind tienge gi tienge.
For the moth shall consume them like a garment, And the worm shall eat them like wool. But my goodness shall endure forever, And my salvation from generation to generation.
9 Aa malo, Aa malo! Jiw badi motegno, yaye Jehova Nyasaye; aa malo kendo ijiwri, mana kaka ne ijiwori chon e ndalo mokadho. Donge in ema nitieko ondiek nam miluongo ni Rahab, mingʼado matindo tindo?
Awake! awake! clothe thyself with strength, O arm of Jehovah! Awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old!
10 Donge in ema nomiyo nam oduono, ma gin pige mano chokore kuonde matut, kendo niloso yo e kind nam matut mondo joma ne ireso ongʼadi kadhi loka cha?
Art thou not the same that smote Rahab, And wounded the dragon? Art thou not the same that dried up the sea, The waters of the great deep, —That made the depths of the sea a path for the redeemed to pass through?
11 Joma Jehova Nyasaye osereso nodwogi. Ginidonji e dala Sayun ka giwer; mor mochwere nobed kuomgi. Ginibed gi mor kod ilo, kendo kuyo gi parruok nolal nono kuomgi.
Thus shall the ransomed of Jehovah return; They shall come to Zion with singing; Everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; They shall obtain gladness and joy, And sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
12 “An, kendo en An e Jal mahoyo chunyu. Angʼo momiyo uluoro yawuot dhano adhana matho, kendo maner mana ka lum,
I, even I, am he that hath pity upon you; Who art thou, that thou art afraid of man, that shall die, Of the son of man, that shall perish like grass,
13 momiyo wiwu owil gi Jehova Nyasaye ma Jachwechu, Jal mane oyaro polo kendo oketo mise mar piny, momiyo udak gi kihondko pile, nikech kum muyudo kuom ngʼama sandou, kendo oikore mar tiekou. Jal masandouno, ere gima geroneno ditim?
And forgettest Jehovah thy maker, That stretched out the heavens, And founded the earth, And fearest continually every day, On account of the fury of the oppressor, As if he were taking aim to destroy thee? Where now is the fury of the oppressor?
14 Joma ni e twech ma luoro omako ibiro gony machiegni; ok ginitho e kuondegi mag twech kendo ok ginichand chiemo.
Soon shall the enchained be loosed; He shall not die in the pit, Nor shall his bread fail.
15 Nimar an Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi mamiyo Nam gingore mi apaka wuo, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego e nyinge.
For I am Jehovah thy God, That rebuketh the sea when his waves roar; Jehovah of hosts is his name.
16 Aseketo wechena e dhogi kendo aumi gi tipo mar lweta, an ema ne ayaro polo maketo kare, mi aketo mise mar piny kendo awachone jo-Sayun ni, ‘Un e joga.’”
I have put my words into thy mouth, And have covered thee with the shadow of my hand, To establish the heavens, and to found the earth. And to say to Zion, “Thou art my people!”
17 Aa malo, Aa malo! Chiew, yaye Jerusalem, in misemetho e kikombe mar mirima mager, moa e lwet Jehova Nyasaye, kendo isemadho kikombe mamero ji milungʼo nyaka duro.
Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem! Thou that hast drunk from the hand of Jehovah the cup of his fury, Thou that hast drunk to the dregs the cup of giddiness!
18 Kuom yawuowi duto mane onywolo onge moro amora mane nyalo taye kata mane nyalo telone komako lwete.
There is not one to lead her, of all the sons which she hath brought forth, Nor is there one to take her by the hand, of all the sons which she hath nurtured.
19 Masiche moluwore osemaki ma en kethruok kod tieki; kech kod ligangla, en ngʼa madihoyi kata duogo chunyi.
These two things have come upon thee, And who bemoaneth thee? Desolation and destruction, and famine and the sword; How shall I comfort thee?
20 Yawuoti osepodho, giriere piny e yore mana ka mwanda mogengʼne ei obadho. Giyudo kum mager moa kuom Jehova Nyasaye kendo chwat mar Nyasache.
Thy sons have fainted; they lie at the head of all the streets, Like a deer in the net; They are full of the wrath of Jehovah, Of the rebuke of thy God.
21 Kuom mano winj ma, in miseyudo masira midoko ngʼama omer to ok gi kongʼo.
Therefore, hear this, thou afflicted, Thou drunken, and not with wine!
22 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, ma en Nyasachi machwako joge e bura wacho, Ne, asegolo oko e lweti kikombe mane miyo ithembo, bende ok inichak imethi e kikombe mar mirimba kendo.
Thus saith thy Lord, Jehovah, And thy God, that defendeth the cause of his people. Behold, I will take from thy hand the cup of giddiness, The cup of my wrath; Thou shalt drink no more of it.
23 Anaket kikombe e lwet joma sandou mane wacho ni, “Nind piny mondo wawuoth kuomi. Kendo niloko die ngʼeyi ka yo miwuothoe.”
And I will put it into the hand of them that have afflicted thee; That have said to thee, “Bow down, that we may pass over!” And thou madest thy body as the ground, And as the street, to them that passed over.
