Isaiah 6
1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
Nʼafọ ahụ, mgbe eze bụ Ụzaya nwụrụ, ahụrụ m Onyenwe anyị ka ọ nọ nʼocheeze ya dị oke elu. Ọnụ ọnụ ala uwe ya jupụtara ụlọnsọ ukwuu ya.
2 Above him stood the seraphim. Each one had six wings, with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew.
Ndị na-erugharị nʼelu ocheeze ya bụ ndị mmụọ ozi a na-akpọ seraf, ndị nwere nku isii. Ha ji nku ha abụọ kpuchie ihu ha; abụọ ka ha ji kpuchie ụkwụ ha, abụọ nke fọdụrụ ka ha ji na-efegharị.
3 And one cried to another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is Jehovah of hosts. The whole earth is full of his glory.
Ha na-abụrịtara onwe ha abụ, sị, “Nsọ, Nsọ, Nsọ, ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile dị. Ụwa niile jupụtara nʼebube ya.”
4 And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who cried, and the house was filled with vapor.
Nʼihi ụda olu ha, ọnụ ụzọ na mgbidi ụlọnsọ mara jijiji, ụlọ ahụ jupụtara nʼanwụrụ ọkụ.
5 Then I said, Woe is me! For I am undone, because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips. For my eyes have seen the King, Jehovah of hosts.
Etiri m mkpu akwa sị. “Ewoo! Onye nwụrụ anwụ ka m bụ, nʼihi na onye mmehie ka m bụ, egbugbere ọnụ m bụ egbugbere ọnụ rụrụ arụ; ọ bụkwa nʼetiti ndị egbugbere ọnụ ha rụrụ arụ ka m bi. Ugbu a, ejirila m anya m hụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, onye bụ Eze ukwu ahụ!”
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar.
Mgbe ahụ, otu nʼime seraf ndị ahụ sitere nʼebe ọ nọ fekwute m, were mkpa gụta otu icheku dị ọkụ site nʼebe ịchụ aja.
7 And he touched my mouth with it, and said, Lo, this has touched thy lips, and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin forgiven.
O weere icheku ọkụ ahụ sọtụ m nʼọnụ, sị m, “Ugbu a, a gụọla gị dịka onye dị ọcha, nʼihi na icheku a emetụla gị nʼọnụ. A gbagharakwala gị mmehie gị niile.”
8 And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I said, Lo, send me.
Mgbe ahụ, anụrụ m olu Onyenwe anyị ka ọ na-ajụ, “Onye ka m ga-eziga? Onye ga-ejekwara anyị?” Asịrị m, “Lee m, ziga m.”
9 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but do not understand, and see ye indeed, but do not perceive.
Ọ siri, “Gaa gwa ndị a sị, “‘Na-anụnụ, ma unu aghọtala, na-elenụ anya ma unu ahụla.’
10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes, lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn, and be healed.
Mee ka obi ndị a maa abụba, dịkwa arọ, mee ka ntị ha kpọchie, mechiekwa anya ha. Ma ọ bụghị otu a, ha nwere ike iji anya ha hụ ụzọ, jiri ntị ha nụ ihe, jirikwa obi ha ghọta, ma chigharịa bụrụ ndị a gwọrọ.”
11 Then I said, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until cities be waste without inhabitant, and houses without man, and the land become utterly waste,
Ma ekwuru m sị, “Onyenwe m, ọ bụ ruo ole mgbe?” Ọ zara, “Ọ bụ ruo mgbe obodo ha tọgbọrọ nʼefu, mgbe ọ na-adịghị onye ga-afọdụ nʼime ya; mgbe ụlọ obibi ha niile ga-atọgbọrọ nʼefu, mgbe e bibisịrị ala ubi ha niile.
12 and Jehovah has removed men far away, and the forsaken places be many in the midst of the land.
Ọ bụ ruo mgbe Onyenwe anyị zigara onye ọbụla gaa ebe dị anya, ala niile atọgbọkwara nʼefu.
13 And if there be yet a tenth in it, it also shall in turn be eaten up. As a terebinth, and as an oak, whose stock remains when they are felled, so the holy seed is the stock of it.
Ma ọ bụrụkwa na otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri nʼime ha niile afọdụ nʼala a, a ga-eme ka ọ laa nʼiyi. Ma dịka osisi terebint na osisi ook na-ahapụ ogwe mgbe e gbujiri ha, ya mere mkpụrụ nsọ ahụ ga-abụ ogwe osisi nʼala ahụ.”
