< Isaya 61 >

1 Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ni kuoma, nikech Jehova Nyasaye osewira, mondo aland wach maber ne joma odhier. Oseora mondo akwe chuny jok modakie lit, kendo mondo aland ne joma otwe ni gin thuolo, bende mondo ahul ne joma otwe modakie mudho ni koro osegonygi.
The Lord GOD’s Spirit is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to those who are bound,
2 Bende oseora mondo aland ni ma e higa mar ngʼwono mar Jehova Nyasaye, kendo chiengʼ ma Nyasachwa biro chuloe kuor, kohoyo ji duto manie kuyo,
to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favour and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn,
3 abiro konyo jogo man-gi lit Sayun, kendo gik mabiro miyogi e magi: ketonegi maua mabeyo kar buru magi bukorego, kendo mor kar lit ma gin-go, kendo chiwo lewni mag pak kar chuny mool. Enoluong-gi ni yiend ober mag tim makare, mopidh gi Jehova Nyasaye, konyiso godo duongʼne.
to provide for those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he may be glorified.
4 Ginichak giger kuonde machon mane omukore, ka gidwoko kare kuonde mane okethore, kendo ginichak giger mier madongo mane okethore mosebedo kojwangʼ e tiengʼ ka tiengʼ.
They will rebuild the old ruins. They will raise up the former devastated places. They will repair the ruined cities that have been devastated for many generations.
5 Jodak nobed jokwadh jambu, jopinje mamoko nopurnu puotheu mag cham, kod mago mag mzabibu.
Strangers will stand and feed your flocks. Foreigners will work your fields and your vineyards.
6 Kendo noluongu ni jodolo mag Jehova Nyasaye, kendo noluongu ni jotich Nyasachwa. Unucham mwandu mag pinje kendo unungʼaru gi sunga kuom mwandugigo.
But you will be called the LORD’s priests. Men will call you the servants of our God. You will eat the wealth of the nations. You will boast in their glory.
7 Kar yudo wichkuot to joga noyud pok nyadiriyo, kendo kar yudo achaya to ginibed mamor gi pokgi; kuom mano giniyud pok nyadiriyo e pinygi, kendo mor mochwere nobed margi.
Instead of your shame you will have double. Instead of dishonour, they will rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they will possess double. Everlasting joy will be to them.
8 “Nimar an Jehova Nyasaye ahero adiera, amon gi mecho kod timbe mamono. Kuom adiera mara abiro miyogi pok kendo anatim kodgi singruok mosiko.
“For I, the LORD, love justice. I hate robbery and iniquity. I will give them their reward in truth and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 Nyikwagi nongʼere e kind ogendini kendo nyithindgi nomi luor e kind ji. Ji duto monenogi nongʼe ni gin oganda ma Jehova Nyasaye ogwedho.”
Their offspring will be known amongst the nations, and their offspring amongst the peoples. All who see them will acknowledge them, that they are the offspring which the LORD has blessed.”
10 An-gi mor maduongʼ e nying Jehova Nyasaye; chunya opongʼ gi ilo kuom Nyasacha. Nimar oserwaka gi lep warruok, kendo oboya gi law mar tim makare, mana kaka wuon kisera boyo wiye ka jadolo, kendo ka miaha morwakore gi thiwni mabeyo.
I will greatly rejoice in the LORD! My soul will be joyful in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation. He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11 Mana kaka lowo miyo cham twi, kendo kaka cham mae puodho thiewo, e kaka Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto nomi tim makare kod pak thiew e dier ogendini duto.
For as the earth produces its bud, and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring up, so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations.
