< Isaiah 58 >
1 “Cry aloud, do not hold back! Raise your voice like a ram’s horn. Declare to My people their transgression and to the house of Jacob their sins.
“Gouru koko matek, kendo kik udog chien. Tingʼuru dwondi malo mana ka turumbete. Nyisuru joga malongʼo ngʼanyo margi kendo richo mar od joka Jakobo nyisgiuru.
2 For day after day they seek Me and delight to know My ways, like a nation that does what is right and does not forsake the justice of their God. They ask Me for righteous judgments; they delight in the nearness of God.”
Nimar pile ka pile gidwara, ginenore joma nigi chuny mar ngʼeyo yorena, mana ka gima gin oganda matimo gima kare, kendo mapok oweyo chike Nyasachgi. Gikwaya ngʼado bura makare, kendo ginenore joma dwaro ni Nyasaye osud machiegni kodgi.
3 “Why have we fasted, and You have not seen? Why have we humbled ourselves, and You have not noticed?” “Behold, on the day of your fast, you do as you please, and you oppress all your workers.
Giwacho niya, ‘Angʼo momiyo wasebedo ka waweyo chiemo to ok ine? Bende angʼo momiyo wasebedo ka wahore malich to ok ikwan ma ka gimoro?’ “To kata kamano e kindeu mar tweyo chiemo, utimo mana kaka udwaro, kendo ukonyoru gi jotichu e yo marach.
4 You fast with contention and strife to strike viciously with your fist. You cannot fast as you do today and have your voice be heard on high.
Tweyo chiemo maru rumo mana gi dhawo kod chuny malit, bende miyo ugoru e kindu uwegi. Ok unyal tweyo chiemo kaka utimo e ndalogi kuparo ni lemou nowinj e polo malo.
5 Is this the fast I have chosen: a day for a man to deny himself, to bow his head like a reed, and to spread out sackcloth and ashes? Will you call this a fast and a day acceptable to the LORD?
Bende ma e kit tweyo chiemo ma aseyiero, ma ngʼato hore mana odiechiengʼ achiel kende? Koso en mana ka ngʼama okuyo kokulo wiye ka odundu mayamo yuko kata ngʼama onindo e pien gugru kotimo buru? Bende mano e gima uluongo ni tweyo chiemo ma en odiechiengʼ mowal ne Jehova Nyasaye.
6 Isn’t this the fast that I have chosen: to break the chains of wickedness, to untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and tear off every yoke?
“Donge ma e kit tweyo chiemo ma aseyiero: ni ugony tonde mag timbe maricho gi mag jok, mondo uwe joma otwe obed thuolo kendo utur jok duto?
7 Isn’t it to share your bread with the hungry, to bring the poor and homeless into your home, to clothe the naked when you see him, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?
Donge en ni mondo upog chiembu ne joma kech kayo kendo urwak joma odhier maonge kuonde dak, bende ni mondo umi joma wuotho duk lewni, kendo kik upand wangʼu ne wedeu?
8 Then your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will come quickly. Your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard.
Kutimo mago eka ler ma un-go nonen ka ler mar okinyi kendo chang maru nobi mapiyo; bende timu makare notel nyimu kendo teko gi duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye nodongʼnu chien.
9 Then you will call, and the LORD will answer; you will cry out, and He will say, ‘Here I am.’ If you remove the yoke from your midst, the pointing of the finger and malicious talk,
Omiyo iniluong Jehova Nyasaye kendo nodwoki; iniywagne mondo okonyi kendo nokoni ni: Eri antie. “Ka uweyo sando ji kendo uweyo achaya kod weche mag oyiem,
10 and if you give yourself to the hungry and satisfy the afflicted soul, then your light will go forth in the darkness, and your night will be like noonday.
kendo ka utuonoru mondo ukony joma kech kayo mi uchopo dwaro mar joma isando. Eka ler maru norieny e mudho kendo otieno maru nochal mana ka dier odiechiengʼ tir.
11 The LORD will always guide you; He will satisfy you in a sun-scorched land and strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.
Jehova Nyasaye notelnu ndalo duto, obiro chopo dwarou e piny motwo, kendo motimo ongoro mi enomi dendu bed mojingʼ. Unuchal mana ka puodho mayudo pi maber, kendo ka soko ma pige ok rum.
12 Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins; you will restore the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of the Breach, Restorer of the Streets of Dwelling.
Jou ema nochak oger kuondeu mane omukore, kendo gini gedi ewi mise machon mane oketi, mi noluongi ni Jager Ohinga mane Omukore kendo ni Jalos Yore Matindo mane ji odakie.
13 If you turn your foot from breaking the Sabbath, from doing as you please on My holy day, if you call the Sabbath a delight, and the LORD’s holy day honorable, if you honor it by not going your own way or seeking your own pleasure or speaking idle words,
“Ka ok uketho odiechiengʼ mar Sabato, kendo utimo dwarou e odiechienga maler, ka uwacho ni Sabato en chiengʼ mor, kendo mowal ni Jehova Nyasaye kumiye luor, ma ok utimo gik ma un ema udwaro, kendo ka uweyo wecheu manono,
14 then you will delight yourself in the LORD, and I will make you ride on the heights of the land and feed you with the heritage of your father Jacob.”
eka unubed moil kuom Jehova Nyasaye, mi oteru ewi piny kama otingʼore, bende nomiu chiemo kar mwandu mane osingore ne Jakobo kwaru.” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
