Isaya 65
1 “Ne afwenyora ne joma ne ok openja, bende ne oyuda gi joma ne ok omanya. To ne oganda mane ok luong nyinga, ne awachonegi ni, ‘Eri an, eri an.’
“I am inquired of by those who did not ask. I am found by those who did not seek me. I said, ‘See me, see me,’ to a nation that was not called by my name.
2 Odiechiengʼ duto aserieyo bada ne oganda ma wigi tek, jogo mawuotho e yore ma ok beyo, ka gitimo dwarogi giwegi,
I have spread out my hands all day to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, after their own thoughts;
3 ma gin joma osiko mana ka miya mirima e wangʼa awuon, ka gitimo misengini e puothe, kendo giwangʼo ubani e kendo molos gi matafare;
a people who provoke me to my face continually, sacrificing in gardens, and burning incense on bricks;
4 gibet e dier liete joma otho otieno duto ka, gipondo kuonde mobuto, gichamo ring anguro, kendo agulnigi otingʼo chiemo moko makwero;
who sit among the graves, and spend nights in secret places; who eat pig’s meat, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
5 giwacho ni ji mamoko niya, ‘Bed mabor koda; kik isud buta, nimar aler moloyi!’ Joma kamago gin mana iro mawuok e uma kendo ka mach maliel ma ok tho odiechiengʼ duto.
who say, ‘Stay by yourself, do not come near to me, for I am holier than you.’ These are smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all day.
6 “To ne, wachno osiko kondiki e nyima ni: Ok analingʼ to abiro chulo kuor adimba; abiro chulo kuor kuneno,
“Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will repay, yes, I will repay into their bosom
7 ma en richo magu kaachiel gi richo mag kwereu,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho. Nikech negitimo misengini e gode mine gidwanyo nyinga e gode matindo, omiyo abiro kumogi chuth ka gineno kuom timbegi mosekadho.
your own iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers together”, says the LORD, “who have burned incense on the mountains, and blasphemed me on the hills. Therefore I will first measure their work into their bosom.”
8 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Mana kaka olemo maber inyalo yudi e saga marach, ma ji wach ni, ‘Kik wite, nimar pod nitie gima ber kuome, e kaka anatim e lo jotichna kendo ok anatiekgi duto.’
The LORD says, “As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, ‘Do not destroy it, for a blessing is in it:’ so I will do for my servants’ sake, that I may not destroy them all.
9 Abiro kelo nyikwa joka Jakobo kendo joka Juda, jogo manokaw godena; ee joga mogen ma jotichna nokaw pinyno mi gidagie.
I will bring offspring out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains. My chosen will inherit it, and my servants will dwell there.
10 Joga mosebedo ka manya nokwa jambgi Sharon kendo Holo mar Akor nobed lek mar dhog-gi.
Sharon will be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down in, for my people who have sought me.
11 “To un musejwangʼo Jehova Nyasaye kendo wiu osewil kod goda maler, un mupedho mesa mar misengini, kendo uloso sewni ne nyiseche manono.
“But you who forsake the LORD, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Fortune, and who fill up mixed wine to Destiny;
12 Aseketou e dho ligangla, kendo un duto unugo chongu kar nek; nimar ne aluongou, to onge ngʼama ne odwoko, ne awuoyo kodu to onge ngʼama nowinjo. Ne utimo timbe mamono e nyima, kendo uyiero mana gik mamorou.”
I will destine you to the sword, and you will all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, you did not answer. When I spoke, you did not listen; but you did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I did not delight.”
13 Kuom mano ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “Jotichna nochiem, to unudeny; jotichna nomethi, to unuwinj riyo; jotichna nobed gimor, to unune wichkuot.
Therefore the Lord GOD says, “Behold, my servants will eat, but you will be hungry; behold, my servants will drink, but you will be thirsty. Behold, my servants will rejoice, but you will be disappointed.
14 Jotichna nower, kamor opongʼo chunygi, to unuywagi ka lit opongʼo chunyu, kendo unudengi ka chunyu otur.
Behold, my servants will sing for joy of heart, but you will cry for sorrow of heart, and will wail for anguish of spirit.
15 Nyingu nobed gir kwongʼ e dier joga mayiero, nimar Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto notieku chuth, kendo nomi jotichne madiera nying machielo.
You will leave your name for a curse to my chosen, and the Lord GOD will kill you. He will call his servants by another name,
16 Ngʼato angʼata mano dwar gweth e piny nyaka luong mana nying Nyasaye madiera; kendo ngʼato angʼata ma nokwongʼre e piny, nokwongʼre mana gi nying Nyasaye madiera. Nimar chandruok machon wich nowilgo, kendo ginilal e wangʼa.”
so that he who blesses himself in the earth will bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears in the earth will swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from my eyes.
17 “Winjuru, abiro chweyo polo manyien kod piny manyien. Gik mosekadho ok nochak opar bende ok ginibi kata e paro.
“For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things will not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 To bed mamor kendo gi ilo manyaka chiengʼ, gi gik ma abiro chweyo, nimar abiro chweyo Jerusalem obed dala makelo mor, kendo joma odakie obed gi ilo.
But be glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for, behold, I create Jerusalem to be a delight, and her people a joy.
19 Abiro bedo gi mor gi Jerusalem kendo bedo gi ilo nikech joga; ywak kod koko mar nduru ok nochak owinji kuome kendo.
I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and delight in my people; and the voice of weeping and the voice of crying will be heard in her no more.
20 “E polo manyien-no kod piny manyien-no ok nochak oyudie nyathi minywolo bangʼe dak mana kuom ndalo manok; kata ngʼat maduongʼ ma ok nodag matiek hike duto, ngʼat manotho ka hike mia achiel, nokwan mana ni otho ka pod en rawera; kendo ngʼat manotho ka hike pok ochopo higa mia achiel, nokwan mana ka ngʼama okwongʼ.
“No more will there be an infant who only lives a few days, nor an old man who has not filled his days; for the child will die one hundred years old, and the sinner being one hundred years old will be accursed.
21 Gibiro gero udi mi gidagie kendo gibiro pidho mzabibu mi gicham olembgi.
They will build houses and inhabit them. They will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
22 Ok ginichak giger udi kae to jomoko nono ema dakie, kata pidho cham to jomoko nono ema biro chamo. Mana kaka yath dak amingʼa, e kaka joga nodagi, joga mayiero none mor kuom gik ma lwetgi oseloso.
They will not build and another inhabit. They will not plant and another eat; for the days of my people will be like the days of a tree, and my chosen will long enjoy the work of their hands.
23 Ok gini chandre kayiem nono, kata nywolo nyithindo mokwongʼ; nimar ginibedi oganda ma Jehova Nyasaye, ogwedho gin kod nyikwagi.
They will not labor in vain nor give birth for calamity; for they are the offspring of the LORD’s blessed and their descendants with them.
24 Abiro dwokogi kata kapok giluonga, kendo abiro winjogi kata kapok giwuoyo.
It will happen that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
25 Ondiek kod rombo nokwa kaachiel, sibuor nocham lum mana kaka faras, to lowo ema nobed chiemb thuol. Onge gima ginikethi e godega duto maler,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
The wolf and the lamb will feed together. The lion will eat straw like the ox. Dust will be the serpent’s food. They will not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain,” says the LORD.
