Isaiah 61
1 The Lord GOD’s Spirit is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to those who are bound,
Mmụọ nke Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị dị nʼahụ m, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị eteela m mmanụ ka m kwusaa oziọma nye ndị ogbenye. O zitela m ịkasị ndị obi ha tiwara etiwa obi, ikwupụta inwere onwe nye ndị a dọtara nʼagha, na ntọghapụ site nʼọchịchịrị nye ndị mkpọrọ.
2 to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn,
O zitere m ikwupụta afọ mgbe Onyenwe anyị ga-eji ihuọma leta ndị mmadụ, na ụbọchị ịbọ ọbọ nke Chineke anyị. O zitekwara m ịkasị ndị niile na-eru ụjụ obi,
3 to provide for those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he may be glorified.
na igboro ndị niile na-eru ụjụ na Zayọn ihe na-akpa ha. O zitere m inye ha okpueze mara mma nʼọnọdụ ntụ, inye ha ọṅụ, nʼọnọdụ ịkwa akwa, na iyikwasị ha mmụọ otuto nʼọnọdụ mmụọ ịda mba. Nʼihi na Chineke akụọla ezi omume nʼime ha, dịka osisi ook siri ike, igosi ịma mma Onyenwe anyị.
4 They will rebuild the old ruins. They will raise up the former devastated places. They will repair the ruined cities that have been devastated for many generations.
Ha ga-ewugharịkwa ebe niile e tikpọrọ etikpọ nʼoge ochie, doziekwa ebe niile tọgbọrọ nʼefu site nʼoge dị anya; ha ga-eme ka obodo e tikpọrọ etikpọ dị ọhụrụ, bụ ebe tọgbọrọrị nʼefu nke ọtụtụ ọgbọ gara aga.
5 Strangers will stand and feed your flocks. Foreigners will work your fields and your vineyards.
Ndị ọbịa ga-azụrụ gị igwe ewu na atụrụ unu; ndị mba ọzọ ga-akọrọ unu ala ubi unu, lekọtakwa ubi vaịnị unu niile.
6 But you will be called the LORD’s priests. Men will call you the servants of our God. You will eat the wealth of the nations. You will boast in their glory.
A ga-akpọ unu ndị nchụaja Onyenwe anyị, kpọkwa unu ndị ozi Chineke anyị. A ga-eji akụ niile si na mba dị iche iche zụọ unu. Ọ bụkwa akụnụba ha ka unu ga-eji nyaa isi.
7 Instead of your shame you will have double. Instead of dishonor, they will rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they will possess double. Everlasting joy will be to them.
Nʼọnọdụ ihere dịịrị ha ugbu a, ndị m ga-enweta ngọzị okpukpu abụọ, nʼọnọdụ nkọcha dịịrị ha ha ga-aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼihi ihe nketa ha nwetara. Ha ga-enweta okpukpu ihe nketa ala abụọ, ketakwa ọṅụ nke ga-adịgidere ha ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
8 “For I, the LORD, love justice. I hate robbery and iniquity. I will give them their reward in truth and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
“Nʼihi na mụ onwe m, Onyenwe anyị, na-ahụ ikpe ziri ezi nʼanya. Ma ana m akpọ izu ohi na ajọ omume niile asị. Aga m esite nʼikwesị ntụkwasị obi m kwụghachi ndị m nʼihi ahụhụ ha tara, mụ na ha ga-agbakwa ndụ ebighị ebi.
9 Their offspring will be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples. All who see them will acknowledge them, that they are the offspring which the LORD has blessed.”
Mkpụrụ ha ga-abụ ndị a ma ama, a ga-asọpụkwara ha nʼetiti mba niile. Ndị niile hụrụ ha ga-amata, kwupụtakwa na ha bụ ndị Onyenwe anyị gọziri.”
10 I will greatly rejoice in the LORD! My soul will be joyful in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation. He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
Obi na-atọ m ụtọ nke ukwuu nʼime Onyenwe anyị, mkpụrụobi m ga-etegharịkwa egwu ọṅụ nʼime Chineke m. Nʼihi na o werela uwe nzọpụta kpuchie m, werekwa uwe oke ọṅụ nke ezi omume ya yikwasị m nʼahụ. Adị m ka nwoke na-alụ nwanyị ọhụrụ, onye na-emezi isi ya ka ọ dịrị ka nke onye nchụaja. E, adị m ka nwaagbọghọ na-alụ di, nke ji ọla ọma dị iche iche chọọ onwe ya mma.
11 For as the earth produces its bud, and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring up, so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring up before all the nations.
Dịka aja dị nʼubi si eme ka ihe a kụrụ nʼubi pupụta, dịka ubi a gbara ogige si eme ka mkpụrụ ubi too, otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị ga-esi mee ka ezi omume na otuto pupụta nʼihu mba niile.
