< Isaiah 65 >

1 “I revealed Myself to those who did not ask for Me; I was found by those who did not seek Me. To a nation that did not call My name, I said, ‘Here I am! Here I am!’
“Ne afwenyora ne joma ne ok openja, bende ne oyuda gi joma ne ok omanya. To ne oganda mane ok luong nyinga, ne awachonegi ni, ‘Eri an, eri an.’
2 All day long I have held out My hands to an obstinate people who walk in the wrong path, who follow their own imaginations,
Odiechiengʼ duto aserieyo bada ne oganda ma wigi tek, jogo mawuotho e yore ma ok beyo, ka gitimo dwarogi giwegi,
3 to a people who continually provoke Me to My face, sacrificing in the gardens and burning incense on altars of brick,
ma gin joma osiko mana ka miya mirima e wangʼa awuon, ka gitimo misengini e puothe, kendo giwangʼo ubani e kendo molos gi matafare;
4 sitting among the graves, spending nights in secret places, eating the meat of pigs and polluted broth from their bowls.
gibet e dier liete joma otho otieno duto ka, gipondo kuonde mobuto, gichamo ring anguro, kendo agulnigi otingʼo chiemo moko makwero;
5 They say, ‘Keep to yourself; do not come near me, for I am holier than you!’ Such people are smoke in My nostrils, a fire that burns all day long.
giwacho ni ji mamoko niya, ‘Bed mabor koda; kik isud buta, nimar aler moloyi!’ Joma kamago gin mana iro mawuok e uma kendo ka mach maliel ma ok tho odiechiengʼ duto.
6 Behold, it is written before Me: I will not keep silent, but I will repay; I will pay it back into their laps,
“To ne, wachno osiko kondiki e nyima ni: Ok analingʼ to abiro chulo kuor adimba; abiro chulo kuor kuneno,
7 both for your iniquities and for those of your fathers,” says the LORD. “Because they burned incense on the mountains and scorned Me on the hills, I will measure into their laps full payment for their former deeds.”
ma en richo magu kaachiel gi richo mag kwereu,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho. Nikech negitimo misengini e gode mine gidwanyo nyinga e gode matindo, omiyo abiro kumogi chuth ka gineno kuom timbegi mosekadho.
8 This is what the LORD says: “As the new wine is found in a cluster of grapes, and men say, ‘Do not destroy it, for it contains a blessing,’ so I will act on behalf of My servants; I will not destroy them all.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Mana kaka olemo maber inyalo yudi e saga marach, ma ji wach ni, ‘Kik wite, nimar pod nitie gima ber kuome, e kaka anatim e lo jotichna kendo ok anatiekgi duto.’
9 And I will bring forth descendants from Jacob, and heirs from Judah; My elect will possess My mountains, and My servants will dwell there.
Abiro kelo nyikwa joka Jakobo kendo joka Juda, jogo manokaw godena; ee joga mogen ma jotichna nokaw pinyno mi gidagie.
10 Sharon will become a pasture for flocks, and the Valley of Achor a resting place for herds, for My people who seek Me.
Joga mosebedo ka manya nokwa jambgi Sharon kendo Holo mar Akor nobed lek mar dhog-gi.
11 But you who forsake the LORD, who forget My holy mountain, who set a table for Fortune and fill bowls of mixed wine for Destiny,
“To un musejwangʼo Jehova Nyasaye kendo wiu osewil kod goda maler, un mupedho mesa mar misengini, kendo uloso sewni ne nyiseche manono.
12 I will destine you for the sword, and you will all kneel down to be slaughtered, because I called and you did not answer, I spoke and you did not listen; you did evil in My sight and chose that in which I did not delight.”
Aseketou e dho ligangla, kendo un duto unugo chongu kar nek; nimar ne aluongou, to onge ngʼama ne odwoko, ne awuoyo kodu to onge ngʼama nowinjo. Ne utimo timbe mamono e nyima, kendo uyiero mana gik mamorou.”
13 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: “My servants will eat, but you will go hungry; My servants will drink, but you will go thirsty; My servants will rejoice, but you will be put to shame.
Kuom mano ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto wacho: “Jotichna nochiem, to unudeny; jotichna nomethi, to unuwinj riyo; jotichna nobed gimor, to unune wichkuot.
14 My servants will shout for joy with a glad heart, but you will cry out with a heavy heart and wail with a broken spirit.
Jotichna nower, kamor opongʼo chunygi, to unuywagi ka lit opongʼo chunyu, kendo unudengi ka chunyu otur.
15 You will leave behind your name as a curse for My chosen ones, and the Lord GOD will slay you; but to His servants He will give another name.
Nyingu nobed gir kwongʼ e dier joga mayiero, nimar Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto notieku chuth, kendo nomi jotichne madiera nying machielo.
16 Whoever invokes a blessing in the land will do so by the God of truth, and whoever takes an oath in the land will swear by the God of truth. For the former troubles will be forgotten and hidden from My sight.
Ngʼato angʼata mano dwar gweth e piny nyaka luong mana nying Nyasaye madiera; kendo ngʼato angʼata ma nokwongʼre e piny, nokwongʼre mana gi nying Nyasaye madiera. Nimar chandruok machon wich nowilgo, kendo ginilal e wangʼa.”
17 For behold, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind.
“Winjuru, abiro chweyo polo manyien kod piny manyien. Gik mosekadho ok nochak opar bende ok ginibi kata e paro.
18 But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; for I will create Jerusalem to be a joy and its people to be a delight.
To bed mamor kendo gi ilo manyaka chiengʼ, gi gik ma abiro chweyo, nimar abiro chweyo Jerusalem obed dala makelo mor, kendo joma odakie obed gi ilo.
19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem and take delight in My people. The sounds of weeping and crying will no longer be heard in her.
Abiro bedo gi mor gi Jerusalem kendo bedo gi ilo nikech joga; ywak kod koko mar nduru ok nochak owinji kuome kendo.
20 No longer will a nursing infant live but a few days, or an old man fail to live out his years. For the youth will die at a hundred years, and he who fails to reach a hundred will be considered accursed.
“E polo manyien-no kod piny manyien-no ok nochak oyudie nyathi minywolo bangʼe dak mana kuom ndalo manok; kata ngʼat maduongʼ ma ok nodag matiek hike duto, ngʼat manotho ka hike mia achiel, nokwan mana ni otho ka pod en rawera; kendo ngʼat manotho ka hike pok ochopo higa mia achiel, nokwan mana ka ngʼama okwongʼ.
21 They will build houses and dwell in them; they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
Gibiro gero udi mi gidagie kendo gibiro pidho mzabibu mi gicham olembgi.
22 No longer will they build houses for others to inhabit, nor plant for others to eat. For as is the lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people, and My chosen ones will fully enjoy the work of their hands.
Ok ginichak giger udi kae to jomoko nono ema dakie, kata pidho cham to jomoko nono ema biro chamo. Mana kaka yath dak amingʼa, e kaka joga nodagi, joga mayiero none mor kuom gik ma lwetgi oseloso.
23 They will not labor in vain or bear children doomed to disaster; for they will be a people blessed by the LORD— they and their descendants with them.
Ok gini chandre kayiem nono, kata nywolo nyithindo mokwongʼ; nimar ginibedi oganda ma Jehova Nyasaye, ogwedho gin kod nyikwagi.
24 Even before they call, I will answer, and while they are still speaking, I will hear.
Abiro dwokogi kata kapok giluonga, kendo abiro winjogi kata kapok giwuoyo.
25 The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, but the food of the serpent will be dust. They will neither harm nor destroy on all My holy mountain,”
Ondiek kod rombo nokwa kaachiel, sibuor nocham lum mana kaka faras, to lowo ema nobed chiemb thuol. Onge gima ginikethi e godega duto maler,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
