Isaya 66

1 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Polo e koma mar duongʼ, to piny e raten tienda. Koro ere kama dugerna e ot? To kar yweyo mara nobed kanye?

Thus says the Lord, Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: what kind of a house will you build me? and of what kind [is to be] the place of my rest?

2 Donge lweta ema osechweyo gigi duto momiyo gibedo mangima?” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho. “Ma e ngʼat ma ayiego ma en ngʼat ma hore kendo man-gi chuny motur, kendo ngʼama oluoro wachna.

For all these things are mine, says the Lord: and to whom will I have respect, but to the humble and meek, and the [man] that trembles [at] my words?

3 To ngʼato angʼata moyangʼo rwath katimogo misango chal gi ngʼat monego dhano, kendo ngʼato angʼata motimo misango mar rombo, chal gi ngʼama oturo ngʼut guok, kendo ngʼato angʼata mochiwo misango mar cham chal gi ngʼat mochiwo remb anguro, bende ngʼato angʼata mowangʼo ubani mangʼwe ngʼar mar rapar, chal gi ngʼama lamo nyiseche manono. Giseyiero yoregi giwegi kendo chunygi mor gi timbegi mag rondogo;

But the transgressor that sacrifices a calf to me, is as he that kills a dog; and he that offers fine flour, as [one that offers] swine's blood; he that gives frankincense for a memorial, is as a blasphemer. Yet they have chosen their own ways, and their soul has delighted in their abominations.

4 omiyo an bende abiro yieronegi masiche mondo omakgi kendo abiro kelo kuomgi gik ma giluoro. Nimar kane aluongo, to onge ngʼat mane odwoka, kendo kane awuoyo, to onge ngʼat mane owinjo. Negitimo timbe mamono e nyima, kendo ne giyiero mana gik mamorogi.”

I also will choose their mockeries, and will recompense their sins upon them; because I called them, and they did not listen to me; I spoke, and they heard not: and they did evil before me, and chose the things wherein I delighted not.

5 Winjuru wach Jehova Nyasaye, un jogo matetni kuwinjo dwonde: “Oweteni mochai kendo ok kwani ka gimoro nikech ihero nyinga osewacho niya, ‘Mad Jehova Nyasaye mi duongʼ, mondo omi wane morni!’ Kata kamano gin giwegi ema ginine wichkuot.

Hear the words of the Lord, you that tremble at his word; speak you, our brethren, to them that hate you and abominate you, that the name of the Lord may be glorified, and may appear their joy; but they shall be ashamed.

6 Winjuru kaka nduru wuok e dala maduongʼ, kendo winjuru kaka kokono wuok e hekalu! Ma en dwond Jehova Nyasaye kochulogo kuor ne wasike moromo gi timbegi.

A voice of a cry from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the Lord rendering recompence to [his] adversaries.

7 “Kapok muoch ochako kaye, to osenywolo nyathi; kapok owinjo rem to osenywolo wuowi.

Before she that travailed brought forth, before the travail-pain came on, she escaped [it] and brought forth a male.

8 En ngʼa mosewinjo wach machal kamano? En ngʼa moseneno gik machalo kamano? Bende piny dichwe godiechiengʼ achiel koso ogendini dichok dichiel? To mana e seche mane muoch ochako kayo Sayun ema nonywoloe nyithinde.

Who has heard such a thing? and who has seen after this manner? Has the earth travailed in one day? or has even a nation been born at once, that Sion has travailed, and brought forth her children?

9 Bende dawe sa ma dhako nywolie chopi mak amiye teko mar nywol?” Jehova Nyasaye owacho. “Bende dadin ich kochopo sa mar chiwo nyathi?” Nyasachi owacho.

But I have raised this expectation, yet you have not remembered me, says the Lord: behold, have not I made the bearing and barren woman? says your God.

10 “Moruru gi Jerusalem kendo bed mamor kode, un duto muhere; beduru gi ilo maduongʼ, un duto man-gi kuyo nikech en.

Rejoice, O Jerusalem, and all you that love her hold in her a general assembly: rejoice greatly with her, all that [now] mourn over her:

11 Nimar ibiro piru maber kudhodho thunde; kendo unumethi gi ilo mi ubed gi mor mogundho.”

that you may suck, and be satisfied with the breast of her consolation; that you may milk out, and delight yourselves with the influx of her glory.

12 Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Abiro miyo kwe ma en-go mol ka aora kendo mwandu mag pinje namiye mamol ka oula; unubed mamor ka odhodhou kotingʼou e bade kendo kopirou e chonge.

For thus says the Lord, Behold, I turn toward them as a river of peace, and as a torrent bringing upon them in a flood the glory of the Gentiles: their children shall be borne upon the shoulders, and comforted on the knees.

13 Mana kaka miyo hoyo nyathine, e kaka abiro hoyou; kendo noho chunyu e Jerusalem.”

As if his mother should comfort one, so will I also comfort you; and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.

14 Ka uneno ma, to chunyu nobed gi mor, kendo dendu nobed maber mana ka lum matwi ndalo chwiri; lwet Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyre ne jotichne, to mirimbe to none kuom wasike.

And you shall see, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall thrive like grass: and the hand of the Lord shall be known to them that fear him, and he shall threaten the disobedient.

15 To nee, Jehova Nyasaye biro gi mach, kendo gechene mag lweny chalo ka kalausi; obiro kelo mirimbe makakni, kendo chwat mare nopilre ka mach.

For, behold, the Lord will come as fire, and his chariots as a storm, to render his vengeance with wrath, and his rebuke with a flame of fire.

16 Nimar mach kod ligangla ema Jehova Nyasaye noyalgo ji duto, kendo joma Jehova Nyasaye nonegi nobed mangʼeny.

For with the fire of the Lord all the earth shall be judged, and all flesh with his sword: many shall be slain by the Lord.

17 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Joma pwodhore kendo bedo maler mondo odhiye puothe, kamoro ka moro luwo wadgi kendo chamo ring anguro, oyieyo kod gik moko duto makwero norum duto dichiel.

They that sanctify themselves and purify themselves in the gardens, and eat swine's flesh in the porches, and the abominations, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, says the Lord.

18 “An Jehova Nyasaye angʼeyo timbeni gi paroni achiegni biro mondo achok ogendini duto kod dhoudi mawacho dhok mopogore opogore kendo ginibi mi ginine duongʼ mara maler.

And I [know] their works and their imagination. I am going to gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.

19 “Anatim ranyisi e kindgi kendo anaor jomoko manok ma notony mane pok owinjo humba kata mane pok oneno duongʼ mara maler ma gin: Tarshish, Libya, Lud (mongʼere gi nying mar jolweny mongʼeyo kedo gi asere), jo-Tubal kod jo-Yunani kaachiel gi joma odak e dho nembe man kuonde maboyo. Gibiro nyiso duongʼna e kind ogendini.

And I will leave a sign upon them, and I will send forth them that have escaped of them to the nations, to Tharsis, and Phud, and Lud, and Mosoch, and to Thobel, and to Greece, and to the isles afar off, to those who have not heard my name, nor seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.

20 Kendo ginikel oweteni duto koa e ogendini duto, e goda maler ma en Jerusalem kaka gir misango ne Jehova Nyasaye ka moko oidho farese, geche lweny, pundane kod ngamia,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho. “Gibiro kelogi mana kaka jo-Israel kelo misengini e od Jehova Nyasaye, ka gitingʼogi e tewni maler.

And they shall bring your brethren out of all nations for a gift to the Lord with horses, and chariots, in litters [drawn by] mules with awnings, to the holy city Jerusalem, said the Lord, as though the children of Israel should bring their sacrifices to me with psalms into the house of the Lord.

21 Kendo moko kuomgi bende nayier mondo obed jodolo kod jo-Lawi,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.

And I will take of them priests and Levites, says the Lord.

22 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Mana kaka polo manyien machweyo gi piny manyien nosiki e nyima, e kaka nyingi kod nying nyikwayi nosiki.

For as the new heaven and the new earth, which I make, remain before me, says the Lord, so shall your seed and your name continue.

23 Mana kaka dwe por kendo podho kendo machielo por, bende mana kaka chiengʼ Sabato nyaka chiengʼ Sabato machielo e kaka ji duto biro bedo kendo kulore e nyima,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.

And it shall come to pass from month to month, and from sabbath to sabbath, [that] all flesh shall come to worship before me in Jerusalem, says the Lord.

24 “Giniwuogi mi gine ringre joma otho mosepiem koda, kudni machamogi ok notho kata mach mawangʼogi ok notho kendo ginibed gik ma piny ngima ojokgo.”

And they shall go forth, and see the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, and their fire shall not be quenched; and they shall be a spectacle to all flesh.
