< Isaya 56 >

1 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Ngʼaduru bura makare kendo utim gima kare, nikech warruokna osekayo machiegni kendo timna makare chiegni fwenyore.
Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation [is] near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
2 Ogwedh ngʼat matimo ma, mangʼado bura makare kendo ngʼatno marito chiengʼ Sabato ka ok odwanye, kendo ok oyie lwete mulo gik mogak.”
Blessed [is] the man [that] doeth this, and the son of man [that] layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
3 Kik ngʼat ma japiny moro moseyie kuom Jehova Nyasaye wachi ni, “Jehova Nyasaye biro kweda e kind ogandane adier.” Kendo ngʼato angʼata mabwoch kik wachi ni, “An mana ka yien motwo.”
Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I [am] a dry tree.
4 Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Joma bwoch, morito Sabato mara, mayiero timo gima miya mor, kendo morito singruokna,
For thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose [the things] that please me, and take hold of my covenant;
5 ei hekalu mara, anami nying-gi bedo rapar moloyo bedo gi yawuowi kod nyiri; bende anamigi nying ma ok norum nyaka chiengʼ.
Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
6 Kendo jopinje mamoko mane oseyie kuom Jehova Nyasaye katiyone kohero nyinge, kendo kalame, jogo duto marito chiengʼ Sabato ma ok odwanye kendo morito singruokna,
Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
7 gin duto anakelgi e goda maler mi anamigi mor e oda mar lamo. Chiwo mag-gi mag misengini miwangʼo pep kod misengini mamoko nayiego e kendona mar misango; kendo oda noluongi ni od lamo mar ogendini duto.”
Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices [shall be] accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.
8 Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ma en Jal ma choko jo-Israel duto, mane oter e twech wacho niya, “Pod abiro choko jomoko makel irgi, kaweyo mago mosechoki.”
The Lord GOD which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather [others] to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
9 Biuru un le manie thim, biuru mondo utiek gik moko un le mag bungu duto!
All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, [yea], all ye beasts in the forest.
10 Jorito mag Israel muofni, giduto gionge rieko; gichalo mana gi guogi mamuol, ma ok nyal giyo; kendo riere piny mi lek, nikech gihero nindo.
His watchmen [are] blind: they are all ignorant, they [are] all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
11 Gin guogi ma dhogi mit kendo ok giyiengʼ. Gin jokwath maonge winjo; giduto gibaro ka giluwo yoregi giwegi, kendo moro ka moro dwaro gima kelone ohala ne en owuon.
Yea, [they are] greedy dogs [which] can never have enough, and they [are] shepherds [that] cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.
12 Giwacho e kindgi giwegi ni, “Biuru mondo wakaw divai! Wamadhuru kongʼo mi wamer! Kendo kiny nochal mana gi kawuono, to bende onyalo bedo maber moloyo.”
Come ye, [say they], I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to morrow shall be as this day, [and] much more abundant.
