< 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 your strength, Zion. Put on your beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city, for from now on the uncircumcised and the unclean will no more come into you.
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 yourself from the dust! Arise, sit up, Jerusalem! Release yourself from the bonds of your neck, captive daughter of Zion!
3 Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Nongʼiewi maonge chudo moro, omiyo ibiro wari ma ok ochulie pesa.”
For the LORD says, “You were sold for nothing; and you will be redeemed without money.”
4 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “Mokwongo joga nodhi Misri mondo odagie, bangʼe jo-Asuria nosandogi.
For the Lord GOD says: “My people went down at the first into Egypt to live there; and the Assyrian has 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.
“Now therefore, what do I do here,” says the LORD, “seeing that my people are taken away for nothing? Those who rule over them mock,” says the LORD, “and my name is blasphemed continually all day long.
6 Kuom mano joga biro ngʼeyo nyinga; kendo odiechiengno giningʼe maber ni an, ema ne asewacho wechegi chon. Adier, en An.”
Therefore my people shall know my name. Therefore they shall know in that day that I am he who speaks. Behold, it is 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 on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news, who proclaims salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”
8 Winjuru! Jorito mau mondo okog matek; giduto gikok nikech gimor. Ka Jehova Nyasaye noduog Sayun, to ginine lochne ayanga.
Your watchmen lift up their voice. Together they sing; for they shall see eye to eye when the LORD returns to Zion.
9 Weruru matek gimor un duto, un kuonde mokethore mag Jerusalem, nimar Jehova Nyasaye osehoyo chuny joge, osereso Jerusalem.
Break out into joy! Sing together, you waste places of Jerusalem; for the LORD has comforted his people. He has redeemed Jerusalem.
10 Jehova Nyasaye biro rieyo bade maler ka ogendini duto neno, kendo tungʼ piny ka piny none warruok mar Nyasachwa.
The LORD has made his holy arm bare in the eyes of all the nations. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of 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! Go out from there! Touch no unclean thing! Go out from amongst her! Cleanse yourselves, you who carry the LORD’s vessels.
12 To ok unuwuogi kurikni kata ka uringo; nimar Jehova Nyasaye notel nyimu, ee Nyasach Israel bende nodongʼnu chien.
For you shall not go out in haste, neither shall you go by flight; for the LORD will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.
13 Ne, jatichna biro tiyo gi rieko; enotingʼe malo moloyo kimiye duongʼ mangʼongo.
Behold, my servant will deal wisely. He will be exalted and lifted up, and will be very high.
14 Mana kaka ji mangʼeny nobwok konene, kite ne olokore makoro ne ok ochal ka dhano, kendo kite nokethore mopogore gi kit dhano,
Just as many were astonished at you— his appearance was marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men—
15 omiyo ogendini mangʼeny nobwogi kendo ruodhi nolingʼ thi nikech en. Nimar gik mane ok owachnegi, gibiro neno, kendo gik mapok giwinjo, nodonjnegi.
so he will cleanse many nations. Kings will shut their mouths at him; for they will see that which had not been told them, and they will understand that which they had not heard.
