Isaya 7
1 E kinde mane Ahaz wuod Jotham ma wuod Uzia, ne ruodh Juda, ruoth Rezin mar Aram to gi Peka wuod Remalia ruodh Israel nomonjo Jerusalem gi lweny, to ne ok ginyal loye.
And it came to pass in the days of Achaz the son of Joathan, the son of Ozias, king of Juda, that Basin king of Syria, and Phacee the son of Romelia king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem, to fight against it: but they could not prevail over it.
2 Eka nowach ne od Daudi niya, “Jo-Aram osetimo winjruok gi jo-Efraim,” omiyo chuny Ahaz gi joge kihondko osemako, mana ka yien manie bungu ma yamo yiengo.
And they told the house of David, saying: Syria hath rested upon Ephraim, and his heart was moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the woods are moved with the wind.
3 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Isaya niya, “Wuogi in kaachiel gi wuodi miluongo ni Shear-Jashub udhi mondo urad gi Ahaz kama oula madonjo e yawo mamalo ogikie mantie but yo miluongo ni Puoth Jaluok lewni.
And the Lord said to Isaias: Go forth to meet Achaz, thou and Jasub thy son that is left, to the conduit of the upper pool, a in the way of the fuller’s held.
4 Wachne ni, ‘Bed motangʼ, hori kendo kik iluor. Kik chunyi nyosre nikech osiki ariyo mag mach motimo iro, machal gi mirima mager mar Rezin kod Aram to gi mar wuod Remalia.
And thou shalt say to him: See thou be quiet: fear not, and let not thy heart be afraid of the two tails of these fire brands, smoking with the wrath of the fury of Rasin king of Syria, and of the son of Romelia.
5 Aram, Efraim kod wuod Remalia osechikoni obadho mondo otieki, kagiwacho niya,
Because Syria hath taken counsel against thee, unto the evil of Ephraim and the son of Romelia, saying:
6 “Wadhi mondo wamonj Juda, wakidhe matindo tindo kendo wapoge e kindwa wawegi bangʼe waket wuod Tabel obed ruodhe.”
Let us go up to Juda, and rouse it up, and draw it away to us, and make the son of Tabeel king in the midst thereof.
7 To kata kamano ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto owacho, “‘Ok giniyud thuolo, bende ok notimre,
Thus saith the Lord God: It shall not stand, and this shall not be.
8 nimar dala maduongʼ mar Aram en Damaski, to jatend Damaski en Rezin. Kuom higni piero auchiel gabich Efraim notieki ma kare nolal nono.
But the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Basin: and within threescore and five years, Ephraim shall cease to be a people:
9 Dala maduongʼ mar Efraim en Samaria, kendo jatend Samaria en mana wuod Remalia. Omiyo ka ok ichungʼ motegno e yie mari, to ok inichung ngangʼ.’”
And the head of Ephraim is Samaria and the head of Samaria the son of Romelia. If you will not believe, you shall not continue.
10 Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo gi Ahaz kendo kawacho niya,
And the Lord spoke again to Achaz, saying:
11 “Kwa Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi ranyisi moro amora moa mwalo e bur piny kata moa e polo malo.” (Sheol h7585)
Ask thee a sign of the Lord thy God either unto the depth of hell, or unto the height above. (Sheol h7585)
12 To Ahaz nowacho niya, “Ok abi kwayo to bende ok abi temo Jehova Nyasaye.”
And Achaz said: I will not ask, and I will not tempt the Lord.
13 Eka Isaya nowacho niya, “To un joka Daudi, koro winjuru! Chand muchandogo ji pok oromou? Koso pod udwaro chando Nyasacha bende?
And he said: Hear ye therefore, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to be grievous to men, that you are grievous to my God also?
14 Kuom mano Ruoth Nyasaye owuon biro miyou ranyisi machal kama: Nyako ngili biro mako ich minywol wuowi, ma noluonge ni Imanuel (tiende ni Nyasaye nikodwa).
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign. Behold a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emmanuel.
15 Obiro chamo mana mor dhiangʼ kod mor kich nyaka chop orom pogo rach gi ber.
He shall eat butter and honey, that he may know to refuse the evil, and to choose the good.
16 To kapok nyathino ongʼeyo pogo rach gi ber, to pinjeruodhi ariyo miluorogo notieki.
For before the child know to refuse the evil, and to choose the good, the land which thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of the face of her two kings.
17 Kokalo kuom ruodh Asuria, Jehova Nyasaye biro kelo kuomi gi kuom jogi kod od wuonu masira mane pok oneye nyaka ne Efraim pogre gi Juda.”
The Lord shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon the house of thy father, days that have not come since the time of the separation of Ephraim from Juda with the king of the Assyrians.
18 E kindeno Jehova Nyasaye nochok lwangʼni kawuok e aore mag Misri kendo notug kich koa e piny Asuria.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall hiss for the fly, that is in the uttermost parts of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
19 Giduto ginibi kendo ginidagi kuonde holo kod buche mag lwendni kendo e bungu mag kuthe kod sokni duto.
And they shall come, and shall all of them rest in the torrents of the valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all places set with shrubs, and in all hollow places.
20 E kindeno Ruoth Nyasaye nokonyre gi wembe mokwa tok Aora kocha ma en ruodh Asuria, mondo olielgo yie wiyeu, yie tiendeu kod yie tiku bende.
In that day the Lord shall shave with a razor that is hired by them that are beyond the river, by the king of the Assyrians, the head and the hairs of the feet, and the whole beard.
21 E kindeno ngʼato biro yudo konyruokne koa kuom nyaroya kod diek ariyo.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall nourish a young cow, and two sheep.
22 To nikech chak mangʼeny manonyiedh kuomgi enonwangʼ mor dhiangʼ mochamo. Jogo duto manodongʼ e pinyno nocham mana mor dhiangʼ kod mor kich.
And for the abundance of milk he shall eat butter: for butter and honey shall every one eat that shall be left in the midst of the land.
23 E kindeno kuonde duto ma yande nitie mzabibu mangʼeny, maromo pesa mangʼeny nolokre pedo kod kuthe.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place where there were a thousand vines, at a thousand pieces of silver, shall become thorns and briers.
24 Ji nodhi kuno gi atungʼ kod asere nikech pinyno duto nopongʼ gi pedo kod kuthe.
With arrows and with bows they shall go in thither: for briars and thorns shall be in all the land.
25 To kuom gode matindo ma yande ipuro gi kwer, to ok unudhie kendo nikech luoro mar pedo mogawore kod kuthe, to ginibed kuonde ma dhok gi rombe kwayoe.
And as for all the hills that shall be raked with a rake, the fear of thorns and briers shall not come thither, but they shall be for the ox to feed on, and the lesser cattle to tread upon.
