< Esias 54 >

1 Rejoice, you barren that bear not; break forth and cry, you that do not travail: for more are the children of the desolate than of her that has a husband: for the Lord has said,
Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “Wer, yaye in dhako ma migumba, in ma ok inywol nyithindo; wer matek, ka igoyo koko gi ilo, in mane muoch ok okayi; nimar dhako ma migumba nobed gi nyithindo, mangʼeny moloyo dhako man-gi dichwo.
2 Enlarge the place of your tent, and of your curtains: fix [the pins], spare not, lengthen your cords, and strengthen your pins;
Ket kar hembi obed maduongʼ, yar ragengʼ mar hembi obed malach, kendo kik idog chien; tud tondene obed maboyo bende igur loyene motegno.
3 spread forth [your tent] yet to the right and the left: for your seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and you shall make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
Nimar ibiro medori malach kichomo bat korachwich kendo kidhi bat koracham; ogandani noma ogendini pinjegi mi dagie e mier madongo makoro owe gundini.
4 Fear not, because you has been put to shame, neither be confounded, because you was reproached: for you shall forget your former shame, and shall no more at all remember the reproach of your widowhood.
“Kik ibed maluor; nikech ok iniyud wichkuot. Kik ibed gi luoro mar yudo wichkuot; nikech ok nojari. Wiyi nowil gi wichkuot mane iyudo ka in nyako, kendo ok inichak ipar chandruok mane ineno kane ibedo dhako ma chwore otho.
5 For [it is] the Lord that made you; the Lord of hosts is his name: and he that delivered you, he is the God of Israel, [and] shall be called [so] by the whole earth.
Nimar Jachwechni e chwori, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego e nyinge midendego, Jal Maler mar Israel e Jaresni; iluonge ni Nyasach piny ngima.
6 The Lord has not called you as a deserted and faint-hearted woman, nor as a woman hated from [her] youth, says your God.
Jehova Nyasaye nodwogi ire, mana ka dhako manoyudo osejwangʼ, kendo ma chunye nigi lit ahinya, en dhako mane okend ka nyako ngili kae to bangʼe ojwangʼ,” Nyasachi ema owacho mano.
7 For a little while I left you: but with great mercy will I have compassion upon you.
“Kuom kinde manok asejwangʼi, to koro abiro duogi ira gi kech mangʼeny.
8 In a little wrath I turned away my face from you; but with everlasting mercy will I have compassion upon you, says the Lord that delivers you.
E kinde mane an gi mirima mangʼeny ne apandoni wangʼa kuom ndalo manok, to koro gi ngʼwono mochwere an-gi kech kuomi,” Jehova Nyasaye ma Jaresni ema owacho.
9 From the time of the water of Noe this is my [purpose]: as I sware to him at that time, [saying] of the earth, I will no more be angry with you, neither when you are threatened,
“Kuoma to ma chalona mana gi ndalo mag Nowa kane akwongʼora ni pi mane oimo piny ok nochak obedie kendo. Omiyo koro asekwongʼora ni mirima ok nochak omaka kodu kendo, bende ok anachak adhawnu.
10 shall the mountains depart, nor shall your hills be removed: so neither shall my mercy fail you, nor shall the covenant of your peace be at all removed: for the Lord [who is] gracious to you has spoken [it].
Kata ka gode biro yiengni, kendo gode matindo ibiro muki, to herana kuomu mosiko ok noyiengi, bende singruokna mar kwe ok nogol,” Jehova Nyasaye man-gi kech kuomu owacho.
11 Afflicted and outcast you has not been comforted: behold, I [will] prepare carbuncle [for] your stones, and sapphire for your foundations;
“Yaye dala maduongʼ misando, ma ahiti oyiecho maonge ngʼama hoyo, abiro geri gi kite motegno, kendo miseni anager gi gik mabeyo.
12 and I will make your buttresses jasper, and your gates crystal, and your border precious stones.
Anager kuondeni mag gige lweny gi rubi, dhorangeyeni to naketie kite ma nengogi tek, kendo ohingani naketie kite mabeyo.
13 And [I will cause] all your sons [to be] taught of God, and your children [to be] in great peace.
Nyithindi duto nopuonj gi Jehova Nyasaye kendo ginibed gi kwe maduongʼ.
14 And you shall be built in righteousness: abstain from injustice, and you shall not fear; and trembling shall not come near you.
Ibiro geri e tim makare: Ok nichak ine tij achuna; kendo onge gima iniluor. Bwok maduongʼ ibiro ter mabor kode; kendo ok ginisud machiegni kodi.
15 Behold, strangers shall come to you by me, and shall sojourn with you, and shall run to you for refuge.
Kapo ni ngʼato omonji, to ok nobed ni an ema aore; to ngʼato angʼata momonji nochiwre e lweti.
16 Behold, I have created you, not as the coppersmith blowing coals, and bringing out a vessel [fit] for work; but I have created you, not for ruin, that [I] should destroy [you].
“To ne, an ema ne achweyo jatheth mula, machwako chuma e mach, kendo loso gige lweny makare ne tijno. An ema asechweyo jaketh mabiro kelonegi chandruok;
17 I will not suffer any weapon formed against you to prosper; and every voice that shall rise up against you for judgement, you shall vanquish them all; and your adversaries shall be [condemned] thereby. There is an inheritance to them that serve the Lord, and you shall be righteous before me, says the Lord.
onge gige lweny molosi ne in mano hinyi, kendo inilo buche duto modonjnie. Ma e pok ma jotich Jehova Nyasaye yudo, kendo ma bende e gweth ma asemiyou,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
