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 Spirit of the Lord Jehovah [is] on me, Because Jehovah did anoint me To proclaim tidings to the humble, He sent me to bind the broken of heart, To proclaim to captives liberty, And to bound ones an opening of bands.
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 good pleasure of Jehovah, And the day of vengeance of our God, To comfort all mourners.
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 appoint to mourners in Zion, To give to them beauty instead of ashes, The oil of joy instead of mourning, A covering of praise for a spirit of weakness, And He is calling to them, 'Trees of righteousness, The planting of Jehovah — to be beautified.'
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.
And they have built the wastes of old, The desolations of the ancients they raise up, And they have renewed waste cities, The desolations of generation and generation.
5 Jodak nobed jokwadh jambu, jopinje mamoko nopurnu puotheu mag cham, kod mago mag mzabibu.
And strangers have stood and fed your flock, Sons of a foreigner [are] your husbandmen, And your vine-dressers.
6 Kendo noluongu ni jodolo mag Jehova Nyasaye, kendo noluongu ni jotich Nyasachwa. Unucham mwandu mag pinje kendo unungʼaru gi sunga kuom mwandugigo.
And ye are called 'Priests of Jehovah,' 'Ministers of our God,' is said of you, The strength of nations ye consume, And in their honour ye do boast yourselves.
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 and confusion, A second time they sing of their portion, Therefore in their land A second time do they take possession, Joy age-during [is] for 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 [am] Jehovah, loving judgment, Hating plunder for a burnt-offering, And I have given their wage in truth, And a covenant age-during I make for 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.”
And known among nations hath been their seed, And their offspring in the midst of the peoples, All their beholders acknowledge them, For they [are] a seed Jehovah hath 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 greatly rejoice in Jehovah, Joy doth my soul in my God, For He clothed me with garments of salvation, With a robe of righteousness covereth Me, As a bridegroom prepareth ornaments, And as a bride putteth on 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 bringeth forth her shoots, And as a garden causeth its sown things to shoot up, So the Lord Jehovah causeth righteousness and praise To shoot up before all the nations!
