Isaiah 42
1 Behold my servant whom I uphold, mine elect [in whom] my soul delighteth! I will put my Spirit upon him; he shall bring forth judgment to the nations.
“Ma e jatichna masemiyo teko, en e ngʼat ma aseyiero, kendo ma chunya morgo, abiro keto Roho mara Maler kendo obiro kelo adiera ne ogendini.
2 He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.
Ok obi goyo koko kata nduru, dwonde bende ok nowinji e wangʼ yore.
3 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment according to truth.
Kata obedo ni onenore kaka odundu mayom yom ok notur kendo kata obedo ni oliel ka taya ma mirimiri to ok notho. Enongʼad bura gadiera;
4 He shall not faint nor be in haste, till he have set justice in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.
ok nochwanyre kata chunye bende ok nonyosre, nyaka okel adiera e piny duto. Pinje duto manie chula mag dier nam biro keto genogi kuom chikene.”
5 Thus saith God, Jehovah, he that created the heavens and stretched them out, he that spread forth the earth and its productions, he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
Nyasaye ma en Jehova Nyasaye, kendo ma Jachwech polo malach, gi piny kod gik moko duto manie iye. En ema ochiwo muya ne dhano kod ngima ne joma wuotho e piny. Owacho kama:
6 I, Jehovah, have called thee in righteousness, and will take hold of thy hand; and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations,
“An Jehova Nyasaye, aseluongi mondo anyisi adierana; abiro mako lweti. Abiro riti kendo ibiro keti gir singruok e kinda gi ji kendo abiro keti ler mar ogendini duto,
7 to open the blind eyes, to bring forth the prisoner from the prison, them that sit in darkness out of the house of restraint.
mondo iyaw wenge muofni, kendo igol joma oketi e od twech, kendo igony joma otwe mobetie mudho.
8 I am Jehovah, that is my name; and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.
“Nyinga ma ongʼeyago en; Jehova Nyasaye! Ok anawe duongʼ mara ne nyasaye moro, bende pak ma ipakago ok nopakgo nyiseche mopa.
9 Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth will I cause you to hear them.
Koro ne, gik machon osetimore bende anyisou gik manyien mabiro timore, to kapok gitimore to ahulonugi.”
10 Sing unto Jehovah a new song, his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein, the isles and their inhabitants.
Werneuru Jehova Nyasaye wer manyien, kupako nyinge e piny duto, un joma kwangʼ e nam kaachiel gi gik manie yie gi pinje mag chula mar nam kod ji duto modak.
11 Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up [their voice], the villages that Kedar doth inhabit; let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains:
Weuru kuonde motimo ongoro gi miechgi mondo ogo koko; kendo weuru joma odak e gwenge mag Kedar obed mamor. Weuru joma odak Sela ower gi mor, ka gikok ewi got malo.
12 let them give glory unto Jehovah, and declare his praise in the islands.
Weuru gimi nying Jehova Nyasaye duongʼ kendo giland pakne e pinje manie chula.
13 Jehovah will go forth as a mighty man, he will stir up jealousy like a man of war: he will cry, yea, he will shout; he will shew himself mighty against his enemies.
Jehova Nyasaye biro wuok oko ka thuon maratego, enobed gi mirima mager mana ka jalweny; kendo enokogi ka ogiyo sigich lweny, mi olo wasike.
14 Long time have I holden my peace; I have been still, I have restrained myself: I will cry like a woman that travaileth; I will blow and pant at once.
Nimar kuom kinde mangʼeny aselingʼ, asehora kendo aseterora mos. To koro sani, abiro chalo mana ka dhako mamuoch kayo, maywak ka gamo yweyo matek.
15 I will lay waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools.
Abiro tieko gode madongo gi gode matindo kendo anami gik motwi kuome two; bende anami aore lokre pinje manie chula kendo nami yewni dwon.
16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they know not, in paths that they know not will I lead them; I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.
Anatel ne muofni mondo owuothi e yore mane ok gingʼeyo, kuonde mapok giwuothoe ema anatagie; kendo anami mudho olokrenegi ler, kendo analos kuonde bugni bed mopie. Magi e gik ma abiro timo; kendo ok najwangʼ-gi.
17 They shall be turned back, they shall be covered with shame, that confide in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye are our gods.
To jogo ma oketo genogi kuom nyiseche mopa, mawacho ni kido mopa niya, Un e nyisechewa, jogo nokwed magiyud wichkuot.
18 — Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.
“Winjuru un joma itgi odino un muofni ngʼiuru mondo une!
19 Who is blind, but my servant? and deaf, as my messenger whom I sent? Who is blind as he in whom I have trusted, and blind as Jehovah's servant,
En ngʼa ma muofu makmana jotichna, kendo ma ite odino ka jaote maoro? Koso en ngʼa ma muofu maloyo ngʼat mochiworena, kata ma muofu maloyo jatich Jehova Nyasaye?
20 — seeing many things, and thou observest not? With opened ears, he heareth not.
Iseneno gik mangʼeny, to ok isedewo; iti to oyawore, to gima iwinjo ema onge.”
21 Jehovah had delight [in him] for his righteousness' sake: he hath magnified the law, and made it honourable.
Jehova Nyasaye ne mor mondo chikne obed gi teko kod duongʼ, mondo adiera mare olandre.
22 But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and hidden in prison-houses; they are become a prey, and none delivereth, — a spoil, and none saith, Restore.
To jogi gin joma oyaki kendo omaa, giduto gisenyumore ma gimoko e bugni, kendo opandgi e ute mag twech. Gisebedo gik moyaki maonge ngʼama nyalo resogi; bende gichalo gik moyaki maonge ngʼama nyalo wacho niya, “Dwokgi.”
23 Who among you will give ear to this, [who] will hearken and hear what is to come?
En ngʼa kuomu manyalo winjo wachni kata chiko ite malongʼo e ndalo mabiro?
24 Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? Did not Jehovah, he against whom we have sinned? And they would not walk in his ways, neither did they hearken unto his law.
En ngʼa mane ochiwo Jakobo mondo obed gima oyaki, kendo jo-Israel e lwet joyeko? Donge en Jehova Nyasaye ma wasetimo richo e nyime? Nimar ne ok ginyal luwo yorene; bende ne ok girito chikene.
25 And he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he took it not to heart.
Omiyo noolo mirimbe mager mar lweny kuomgi. Ne olworogi gi mach mawengʼo to ne ok gidewe; bende majno ne owangʼogi to ne ok gidewe.
