Isaiah 25
1 O Lord, you are my God; I will give praise to you, I will give honour to your name; for you have done great acts of power; your purposes in the past have been made true and certain in effect.
O! Yehowa, wòe nye nye Mawu. Mado wò ŋkɔ ɖe dzi, eye makafu wò, elabena wò nuteƒewɔwɔ de blibo. Èwɔ nu dzɔtsuwo, nu siwo nèɖo ɖi tso blema ke.
2 For you have made a town a waste place: a strong town a mass of broken walls; the tower of the men of pride has come to an end; it will never be put up again.
Èna du gãwo trɔ zu aƒedo, eye mɔ sesẽwo zu glikpo. Amedzrowo ƒe du sesẽwo maganye du anɔ anyi o. Womagbugbɔ wo atu akpɔ o,
3 For this cause will the strong people give glory to you, the town of the cruel ones will be in fear of you.
eya ta dukɔ siwo wɔa kalẽ la ade bubu ŋuwò, eye dukɔ nyanyrawo avɔ̃ wò,
4 For you have been a strong place for the poor and the crushed in their trouble, a safe place from the storm, a shade from the heat, when the wrath of the cruel ones is like a winter storm.
elabena Yehowa, wòe nye sitsoƒe na ame dahewo, xɔnametɔ na hiãtɔwo le xaxa me, bebeƒe le ahom me kple vɔvɔli le ŋdɔkutsu helĩhelĩ nu. Ŋutasẽlawo lɔ gbɔgbɔtsixe ɖe ƒo abe yatsi si le ƒoƒom ɖe gli ŋu la ene,
5 As heat by the shade of a cloud, the noise of the men of pride has been made quiet by you; as heat by the shade of a cloud, the song of the cruel ones has been stopped.
eye abe dzoxɔxɔ sesẽ tso gbegbe ene; èna amedzrowo ƒe hoowɔwɔ nu tso abe ale si ne lilikpo xe ɣe ŋkume la, eƒe dzoxɔxɔ ɖiɖinae ene. Aleae nètsi ame nyanyrawo ƒe hadzidzi nue.
6 And in this mountain will the Lord of armies make for all peoples a feast of good things, a feast of wines long stored, of good things sweet to the taste, of wines long kept and tested.
Le to sia dzi, Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la, atsɔ nuɖuɖu damiwo aɖo kplɔ̃e na dukɔwo katã. Wain tsitsitɔ anɔ afi ma. Lã damitɔ akpe ɖe eŋu, eye wain nyuitɔ abɔ ɖe eŋu.
7 And in this mountain he will put an end to the shade covering the face of all peoples, and the veil which is stretched over all nations.
Le to sia dzi, aɖe ameɖivɔ si me wobla amewo katã ɖo kple avɔ si wotsɔ tsyɔ dukɔwo katã dzi la ɖa.
8 He has put an end to death for ever; and the Lord God will take away all weeping; and he will put an end to the shame of his people in all the earth: for the Lord has said it.
Ami ku tso mavɔ me yi ɖe mavɔ me. Aƒetɔ Yehowa atutu aɖatsi sia aɖatsi ɖa le amewo ƒe ŋkume. Aɖe eƒe dukɔ la ƒe ŋukpe ɖa le anyigba blibo la dzi. Yehowae gblɔe.
9 And in that day it will be said, See, this is our God; we have been waiting for him, and he will be our saviour: this is the Lord in whom is our hope; we will be glad and have delight in his salvation.
Gbe ma gbe la, woagblɔ be, “Esiae nye míaƒe Mawu vavã la. Míeɖo ŋu ɖe eŋu, eye wòɖe mí. Eyae nye Yehowa si ŋu míeɖo ŋu ɖo. Mina míatso aseye, akpɔ dzidzɔ le eƒe ɖeɖe la ta.”
10 For in this mountain will the hand of the Lord come to rest, and Moab will be crushed down in his place, even as the dry stems of the grain are crushed under foot in the waste place.
Yehowa ƒe asi anɔ to sia dzi, ke afanya Moab ɖe eƒe afɔ te abe ale si wofanyaa gbe ƒuƒu ɖe aɖu me ene.
11 And if he puts out his hands, like a man stretching out his hands in swimming, the Lord will make low his pride, however expert his designs.
Akeke eƒe abɔwo ɖe dukɔ la dzi abe ale si tsiƒula kekea eƒe abɔwo ne ele tsi ƒum ene. Mawu aɖiɖi wo ɖe anyi le woƒe dada ta togbɔ be wotsɔ woƒe asiwo wɔ kalẽnu geɖewoe hã.
12 And the strong tower of your walls has been broken by him, made low, and crushed even to the dust.
Amu woƒe gli sesẽwo aƒu anyi, eye woakaka ɖe anyigba, agbã gudugudu, eye woazu kewɔ.
