< Isaiah 60 >
1 Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.
“Bilie, mụkee, nʼihi na ìhè gị abịala, ebube Onyenwe anyị awaakwala nʼahụ gị dịka anyanwụ.
2 For behold, darkness covers the earth, and thick darkness is over the peoples; but the LORD will rise upon you, and His glory will appear over you.
Lee, ọchịchịrị na-ekpuchi ụwa niile, oke ọchịchịrị na-ekpuchi ndị niile bi nʼụwa, ma Onyenwe anyị ga-awa dịka anyanwụ nʼahụ gị ebube ya ga-achakwa ka ihe nʼebe i nọ.
3 Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
Mba niile dị iche iche ga-abịakwute ìhè gị, ndị eze niile ga-abịaru mmụke nke ọwụwa gị.
4 Lift up your eyes and look around: They all gather and come to you; your sons will come from afar, and your daughters will be carried on the arm.
“Welienụ anya unu abụọ elu legharịa gburugburu unu, ha niile na-ezukọta na-abịakwute gị; ụmụ gị ndị ikom na-esi nʼebe dị anya bịa, ụmụ gị ndị inyom ka a ga-ekukwa nʼụkwụ.
5 Then you will look and be radiant, and your heart will tremble and swell with joy, because the riches of the sea will be brought to you, and the wealth of the nations will come to you.
Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-elepụ anya ma chakee, obi gị ga-atọ gị ụtọ, saa mbara nʼihi ọṅụ, nʼihi na akụ niile nke osimiri ka a ga-ewebatara gị, akụnụba nke ọtụtụ mba ga-abịara gị.
6 Caravans of camels will cover your land, young camels of Midian and Ephah, and all from Sheba will come, bearing gold and frankincense and proclaiming the praises of the LORD.
Ọtụtụ igwe ịnyịnya kamel nke si Midia na Efaa ga-ejupụta nʼala gị, ma ndị sikwa nʼobodo Sheba ga-ebutere gị ọlaedo na ụda na-esi isi ụtọ. Ha ga-ekwusakwa otuto Onyenwe anyị.
7 All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered to you; the rams of Nebaioth will serve you and go up on My altar with acceptance; I will adorn My glorious house.
A ga-enye gị igwe ewu na atụrụ niile nke ndị Keda. Ebule niile nke Nebaiot ga-abụ nke gị. A ga-anabata ha dịka onyinye nʼelu ebe ịchụ aja m. Aga m edozi ụlọnsọ m dị ebube, mee ya ka ọ maa mma karịa.
8 Who are these who fly like clouds, like doves to their shelters?
“Olee ndị bụ ndị a na-efegharị dịka igwe ojii, ndị na-efegharị dịka ụmụ nduru na-efeba nʼakwụ ha?
9 Surely the islands will wait for Me, with the ships of Tarshish in the lead, to bring your children from afar, with their silver and gold, to the honor of the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, for He has glorified you.
Nʼezie, mụ ka ala ndị ahụ mmiri gbara gburugburu na-echere; ụgbọ niile nke Tashish ga-ebukwa ụzọ, na-ebughachi ụmụ gị site nʼebe dị anya, ha na ọlaọcha na ọlaedo ha niile. Inye Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị nsọpụrụ, Onye nsọ nke Izrel, nʼihi na ọ jirila ịma mma gọzie gị.
10 Foreigners will rebuild your walls, and their kings will serve you. Although I struck you in anger, yet in favor I will show you mercy.
“Ndị mba ọzọ ga-abịa wuziere unu mgbidi unu niile. Ndị na-achị achị na ndị eze ha niile ga-ejere unu ozi. Ọ bụ ezie na m tikpọrọ gị nʼiwe m, ma site nʼamara m, aga m emere gị ebere.
11 Your gates will always stand open; they will never be shut, day or night, so that the wealth of the nations may be brought into you, with their kings being led in procession.
Ọnụ ụzọ ama gị ga-eghe oghe oge niile site nʼụtụtụ ruo nʼụtụtụ, ịnabata akụ niile si na mba dị iche iche. A ga-edurukwa ndị eze dị iche iche bata nʼime ya nʼọnọdụ ndị a dọtara nʼagha.
12 For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish; it will be utterly destroyed.
Mba ọbụla jụrụ ijere gị ozi ga-ala nʼiyi; a ga-ekpochapụ ha.
13 The glory of Lebanon will come to you— its cypress, elm, and boxwood together— to adorn the place of My sanctuary, and I will glorify the place of My feet.
“Otuto niile na ịma mma niile nke Lebanọn ga-abụ nke gị. Osisi junipa, na osisi fịa, na osisi junipa, na osisi saipres, ka a ga-eji chọọ ụlọnsọ m mma. Aga m emekwa ka ebube jupụta nʼebe ahụ ụkwụ m na-adị mgbe niile.
14 The sons of your oppressors will come and bow down to you; all who reviled you will fall facedown at your feet and call you the City of the LORD, Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
Ụmụ ndị na-emegbu gị ga-abịa kpọọ isiala nye gị. Ndị ahụ niile na-elelị gị ga-abịa daa nʼala nʼihu gị sutu ụkwụ gị ọnụ. Ha ga-akpọ Jerusalem, Obodo Onyenwe anyị, Zayọn nke Onye nsọ Izrel.
15 Whereas you have been forsaken and despised, with no one passing through, I will make you an everlasting pride, a joy from age to age.
“Ọ bụ ezie na ọ dị mgbe ị bụ onye a kpọrọ asị, onye a na-emegbu, onye mmadụ niile na-eweda nʼala, ma ugbu a, ị ga-ama mma ruo ebighị ebi; ị ga-abụ ihe na-ewetara ọgbọ niile nke ụwa ọṅụ, nʼihi na otu a ka m ga-eme gị.
16 You will drink the milk of nations and nurse at the breasts of royalty; you will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
Ị ga-aṅụ mmiri ara nke mba dị iche iche, ọ bụkwa ara ndị eze ka a ga-eji zuo gị. Mgbe ahụ, ị ga-amata nʼezie na mụ onwe m, bụ Onyenwe anyị bụ Onye nzọpụta gị na Onye mgbapụta gị, Onye dị ike nke Jekọb.
17 Instead of bronze I will bring you gold; I will bring silver in place of iron, bronze instead of wood, and iron instead of stones. I will appoint peace as your governor and righteousness as your ruler.
Nʼọnọdụ bronz, aga m eweta ọlaedo, nʼọnọdụ igwe aga m eweta ọlaọcha. Nʼọnọdụ osisi, ọ ga-abụ ọla, nʼọnọdụ nkume, ọ ga-abụ igwe. M ga-eme ka udo bụrụ ndị nlekọta gị ezi omume ga-abụ onye na-achị gị.
18 No longer will violence be heard in your land, nor ruin or destruction within your borders. But you will name your walls Salvation and your gates Praise.
Ihe ike agaghị adịkwa nʼala gị ọzọ. Agha niile ga-akwụsị, mbibi na ịla nʼiyi agaghị adịkwa. Mgbidi gị ga-aghọ Nzọpụta, ị ga-akpọkwa ọnụ ụzọ ama gị niile Otuto.
19 No longer will the sun be your light by day, nor the brightness of the moon shine on your night; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your splendor.
Anyanwụ agaghị abụkwara gị ìhè nʼehihie ọzọ, maọbụ maramara nke ọnwa amụkwasị gị ihe, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-abụrụ gị ìhè ruo ebighị ebi, Chineke gị ga-abụkwa ebube gị.
20 Your sun will no longer set, and your moon will not wane; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and the days of your sorrow will cease.
Anwụ gị agaghị ada ada, ọnwa gị agaghị akwụsịkwa ịcha; nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ga-abụrụ gị ìhè ụbọchị gị niile, iru ụjụ gị niile ga-agabigakwa.
21 Then all your people will be righteous; they will possess the land forever; they are the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, so that I may be glorified.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị gị niile ga-abụ ndị ezi omume, ha ga-enwetakwa ala ahụ ruo ebighị ebi. Ha bụ ome nke m kụrụ, bụ ọrụ aka m, ime ka ịma mma m pụta ìhè.
22 The least of you will become a thousand, and the smallest a mighty nation. I am the LORD; in its time I will accomplish it quickly.
Ezinaụlọ dị nta ga-aba ụba ghọọ obodo, mba nta ga-aghọ obodo buru ibu. Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị, ga-eme ka ha niile mezuo ọsịịsọ nʼoge ya.”
