Esias 35
1 Be glad, thou thirsty desert: let the wilderness exult, and flower as the lily.
Gbegbe kple anyigba si ƒu kplakplakpla la akpɔ dzidzɔ. Gbedadaƒo atso aseye ahaƒo se abe dzogbenya ene,
2 And the desert places of Jordan shall blossom and rejoice; the glory of Libanus has been given to it, and the honour of Carmel; and my people shall see the glory of the Lord, and the majesty of God.
aƒo se, atso aseye, eye wòado dzidzɔɣli. Woagbugbɔ Lebanon ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe nɛ, Karmel ƒe lãnyiƒe kple Saron ƒe gbe dama ƒe atsyɔ̃ agatrɔ ava na wo, eye woakpɔ Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe kple míaƒe Mawu la ƒe atsyɔ̃.
3 Be strong, ye relaxed hands and palsied knees.
Do ŋusẽ asi beliwo, eye nàli ke klo siwo le ƒoƒom la;
4 Comfort one another, ye fainthearted; be strong, fear not; behold, our God renders judgment, and he will render [it]; he will come and save us.
migblɔ na ame siwo ƒe dzi le vɔvɔ̃m be, “Misẽ ŋu, migavɔ̃ o. Miaƒe Mawu la gbɔna. Ava kple hlɔ̃biabia kple teƒeɖoɖo, eye wòaɖe mi.”
5 Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall hear.
Ekema ŋkugbagbãtɔwo ƒe ŋkuwo aʋu, eye tokunɔwo ƒe towo aʋu.
6 Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the stammerers shall speak plainly; for water has burst forth in the desert, and a channel [of water] in a thirsty land.
Tekunɔ ati kpo abe zi ene, eye aɖetututɔ ado dzidzɔɣli, Tɔsisi aŋɔ ɖe gbegbe, eye tɔʋuwo asi tso gbedadaƒo.
7 And the dry land shall become pools, and a fountain of water shall [be poured] into the thirsty land; there shall there be a joy of birds, ready habitations and marshes.
Blezibleziteƒewo atrɔ azu tsita eye anyigba si ƒu kplakplakpla la agbɔ agbe kple tometsi. Teƒe siwo nye amegaxiwo nɔƒe tsã la atrɔ azu lãnyiƒe azɔ, eye aƒlawo kple ati si ƒe aŋgbawo dzi woŋlɔa nu ɖo tsã la amie ɖe afi ma.
8 There shall be there a pure way, and it shall be called a holy way; and there shall not pass by there any unclean person, neither shall there be there an unclean way; but the dispersed shall walk on it, and they shall not go astray.
Mɔtata gbadza aɖe anɔ afi ma. Woayɔe be kɔkɔenyenye ƒe mɔ. Ame makɔmakɔwo mazɔ mɔ sia dzi o. Anye toƒe na ame siwo zɔna le mɔ ma dzi. Gegemewo gɔ̃ hã matra le edzi o.
9 And there shall be no lion there, neither shall any evil beast go up upon it, nor at all be found there; but the redeemed and gathered on the Lord's behalf, shall walk in it,
Dzata alo lã wɔadã aɖeke mazɔ afi ma o. Womakpɔ wo dometɔ aɖeke le afi ma o. Ke ame siwo woɖe la koe azɔ afi ma.
10 and shall return, and come to Sion with joy, and everlasting joy [shall be] over their head; for on their head [shall be] praise and exultation, and joy shall take possession of them: sorrow and pain, and groaning have fled away.
Ame siwo Yehowa xɔ ƒle la koe atrɔ gbɔ. Woatsɔ hadzidzi age ɖe Zion; woatsɔ dzidzɔ mavɔ aɖo atsyɔ̃ na woƒe tawo. Dzidzɔ kple aseyetsotso adze wo ŋgɔ, eye nuxaxa kple hũɖeɖe maganɔ anyi o.
