Esias 56
1 Thus says the Lord, Keep you judgement, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my mercy to be revealed.
Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi, “Minɔ ʋɔnu dzɔdzɔe dɔdrɔ̃ dzi, eye miwɔ nu si le dzɔdzɔe, elabena nye ɖeɖe tsɔ ɖe mia gbɔ, eye esusɔ vie woaɖe nye dzɔdzɔenyenye ɖe go.
2 Blessed is the man that does these things, and the man that holds by them, and keeps the sabbaths from profaning them, and keeps his hands from doing unrighteousness.
Woayra ame si wɔna alea heléa eme ɖe asi sesĩe, ame si megblẽa kɔ ɖo na Dzudzɔgbe la o, ke boŋ wòléa eme ɖe asi, eye menana eƒe asi wɔa nu vɔ̃ɖi o.”
3 Let not the stranger who attaches himself to the Lord, say, Surely the Lord will separate me from his people: and let not the eunuch say, I am a dry tree.
Amedzro si tsɔ eɖokui na Yehowa la megagblɔ be, “Yehowa le ɖe nye ge ɖa le eƒe dukɔ la dome” o. Ŋutsu si wota hã megafa konyi agblɔ be, “Ati ƒuƒu ko menye” o.
4 Thus says the Lord to the eunuchs, as many as shall keep my sabbaths, and choose the things which I take pleasure in, and take hold of my covenant;
Elabena ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi, “Ne ŋutsu siwo wota, lé nye Dzudzɔgbe me ɖe asi, hetia nu si dzea ŋunye, eye wolé nye nubabla me ɖe asi goŋgoŋ la,
5 I will give to them in my house and within my walls an honourable place, better than sons and daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, and it shall not fail.
mana ŋkuɖodzikpe kple ŋkɔ wo ɖe nye gbedoxɔ kple eƒe gliwo me, esi nyo wu viŋutsuwo kple vinyɔnuwo. Matsɔ ŋkɔ mavɔ si womate ŋu aɖe ɖa akpɔ gbeɖe o la na wo.
6 And [I will give it] to the strangers that attach themselves to the Lord, to serve him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be to him servants and handmaids; and [as for] all that keep my sabbaths from profaning [them], and that take hold of my covenant;
Ke hena amedzro siwo ku ɖe Yehowa ŋu be woanye dɔlawo nɛ, woalɔ̃ Yehowa ƒe ŋkɔ, eye woasubɔe. Wo ame siwo katã lé nye Dzudzɔgbe me ɖe asi, womegblẽ kɔ ɖo nɛ o, eye woku ɖe nye nubabla ŋu vevie la,
7 I will bring them to my holy mountain, and gladden them in my house of prayer: their whole burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be acceptable upon mine altar; for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations,
woawoe makplɔ ava nye to kɔkɔe la dzi, eye mado dzidzɔ na wo le nye gbedoxɔ me. Maxɔ woƒe numevɔsa kple akpedavɔsa siwo wotsɔ va nye vɔsamlekpui dzi, elabena woayɔ nye aƒe la be dukɔwo katã ƒe gbedoxɔ.”
8 says the Lord that gathers the dispersed of Israel; for I will gather to him a congregation.
Aƒetɔ Yehowa, ame si ƒo Israel ƒe amewo nu ƒu la be, “Magaƒo ame bubuwo nu ƒu, akpe ɖe ame siwo ƒo ƒu xoxo la ŋu.”
9 All you beasts of the field, come, devour, all you beasts of the forest.
Miva, mi lã wɔadãwo katã. Miva ne miavuvu nu, mi avemelã wɔadãwo katã!
10 See how they are all blinded: they have not known; [they are] dumb dogs [that] will not bark; dreaming of rest, loving to slumber.
Israel ƒe gbetakpɔlawo katã nye ŋkugbagbãtɔwo. Nunya metso aƒe ɖe wo gbɔ o. Avu si ƒe aɖe tu lae wonye. Womate ŋu awo o. Womlɔa anyi hekua drɔ̃e, eye alɔ̃ vivia wo nu.
11 Yes, they are insatiable dogs, that know not what it is to be filled, and they are wicked, having no understanding: all have followed their own ways, each according to his [will].
Wonye avu siwo ɖua nutsu; nu meɖia ƒo na wo o. Wonye alẽkplɔla siwo mesea nugɔme o. Wo katã wolé woƒe mɔ tsɔ, ɖe sia ɖe le eya ŋutɔ ƒe viɖe dim.
Ɖe sia ɖe doa ɣli be, “Miva, mina ne maku wain vɛ! Miva ne miano aha muame wòasu mi! Etsɔ hã nanɔ abe egbe ene alo nanyo sãa wu gɔ̃ hã.”
