Isaya 52
1 Aa malo, Aa malo, yaye Sayun, jiw badi motegno! Rwak lepi mabeyo, yaye Jerusalem dala maduongʼ maler. Nimar joma ok oter nyangu kendo mogak, ok nochak odonji e Jerusalem kendo.
Awake, awake, put on thy majesty, O Zion! Put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city! For no more shall come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.
2 Tengʼ buru momaki oko; aa malo kendo ibed piny e kom duongʼ, yaye Jerusalem. Gony nyoroche motwe ngʼuti, yaye in Nyar Sayun manie twech.
Shake thyself from the dust, Arise and sit erect, O Jerusalem! Loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion!
3 Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Nongʼiewi maonge chudo moro, omiyo ibiro wari ma ok ochulie pesa.”
For thus saith Jehovah: For naught were ye sold, And without money shall ye be ransomed.
4 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “Mokwongo joga nodhi Misri mondo odagie, bangʼe jo-Asuria nosandogi.
For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: My people went down to Egypt formerly to sojourn there, And the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.
5 “To koro en angʼo manenoni? “Joga okaw nono maonge gima ochul kendo joma tiyogi koro goyonegi siboi,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho. “Kendo kinde duto giyanyo nyinga.
And now, what have I here to do, saith the Lord, When my people is taken away for naught, And their tyrants exult, saith Jehovah, And all the day long my name is blasphemed.
6 Kuom mano joga biro ngʼeyo nyinga; kendo odiechiengno giningʼe maber ni an, ema ne asewacho wechegi chon. Adier, en An.”
Therefore shall my people know my name; Therefore in that day shall they know That I am he that said, Behold, here am I!
7 Mano kaka en gima ber neno tiend joote maringo ewi gode kakelo wach maber, mar kwe, mar resruok, kod mar warruok kagiwachone Sayun niya, “Nyasachu olocho!”
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, of him that proclaimeth peace! That bringeth good tidings, that proclaimeth salvation! That saith to Zion, “Thy God is king!”
8 Winjuru! Jorito mau mondo okog matek; giduto gikok nikech gimor. Ka Jehova Nyasaye noduog Sayun, to ginine lochne ayanga.
Hark! the voice of thy watchmen! They lift up the voice together; yea, they shout! For eye to eye shall they behold, When Jehovah returneth to Zion.
9 Weruru matek gimor un duto, un kuonde mokethore mag Jerusalem, nimar Jehova Nyasaye osehoyo chuny joge, osereso Jerusalem.
Break forth into joy; shout together, ye ruins of Jerusalem! For Jehovah hath pity on his people; he redeemeth Jerusalem.
10 Jehova Nyasaye biro rieyo bade maler ka ogendini duto neno, kendo tungʼ piny ka piny none warruok mar Nyasachwa.
Jehovah maketh bare his holy arm In the sight of all the nations; All the ends of the earth Behold the salvation from our God.
11 Wuoguru, wuoguru, auru kanyo! Kik umul gima ochido! Wuoguru kuome mondo ubed maler, un mutingʼo gik ler mar Jehova Nyasaye.
Depart, depart ye; go ye out from thence; Touch no unclean thing! Go ye out from the midst of her; Be ye clean, ye that bear the vessels of Jehovah!
12 To ok unuwuogi kurikni kata ka uringo; nimar Jehova Nyasaye notel nyimu, ee Nyasach Israel bende nodongʼnu chien.
For not in haste shall ye go forth, Nor in flight shall ye pass along; For Jehovah shall march in your front, And the God of Israel bring up your rear.
13 Ne, jatichna biro tiyo gi rieko; enotingʼe malo moloyo kimiye duongʼ mangʼongo.
Behold, my servant shall prosper; He shall be lifted up, and set on high, and greatly exalted.
14 Mana kaka ji mangʼeny nobwok konene, kite ne olokore makoro ne ok ochal ka dhano, kendo kite nokethore mopogore gi kit dhano,
As many were amazed at the sight of him, —So disfigured and scarcely human was his visage, And so unlike that of a man was his form, —
15 omiyo ogendini mangʼeny nobwogi kendo ruodhi nolingʼ thi nikech en. Nimar gik mane ok owachnegi, gibiro neno, kendo gik mapok giwinjo, nodonjnegi.
So shall he cause many nations to exult on account of him; Kings shall shut their mouths before him. For what had never been told them shall they see, And what they never heard shall they perceive.
