< Isaiah 29 >

1 Woe to Ariel, to Ariel the city which David took: year is added to year: the solemnities are at an end.
Ariel, Ariel, inine malit, in dala maduongʼ mane Daudi odakie! Meduru dhi nyime ka utimo sewni higa ka higa.
2 And I will make a trench about Ariel, and it shall be in sorrow and mourning, and it shall be to me as Ariel.
To kata kamano abiro monjo Ariel mi enobedi gi ywagruok kod kuyo, kendo enochalna mana ka kendo mar misango.
3 And I will make a circle round about thee, and will cast up a rampart against thee, and raise up bulwarks to besiege thee.
Abiro lwori koni gi koni, mi anagoni agengʼa kendo namonji gi tekona.
4 Thou shalt be brought down, thou shalt speak out of the earth, and thy speech shall be heard out of the ground: and thy voice shall be from the earth like that of the python, and out of the ground thy speech shall mutter.
Nadwoki piny miwuo mana koa ei lowo; kendo wecheni nowuog mana koa ei buru. Dwondi nochal mana ka dwond jachien moa ei lowo; kendo koa ei lowo dwondi nowinji.
5 And the multitude of them that fan thee, shall be like small dust: and as ashes passing away, the multitude of them that have prevailed against thee.
To jowasiki mangʼeny nochal gi buru mayom, kendo oganda mager nochal gi mihudhwe ma yamo tero. Apoya nono, ka diemo wangʼ,
6 And it shall be at an instant suddenly. A visitation shall come from the Lord of hosts in thunder, and with earthquake, and with a great noise of whirlwind and tempest, and with the flame of devouring fire.
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego nobi gi mor polo gi yiengni mar piny kod koko maduongʼ, gi ahiti kod kalausi kendo gi mach mager.
7 And the multitude of all nations that have fought against Ariel, shall be as the dream of a vision by night, and all that have fought, and besieged and prevailed against it.
Eka ogendini mag pinje duto makedo gi Ariel, mamonjo kuondege motegno kendo lwore, biro chalo mana ka lek kata ka fweny mar otieno,
8 And as he that is hungry dreameth, and eateth, but when he is awake, his soul is empty: and as he that is thirsty dreameth, and drinketh, and after he is awake, is yet faint with thirst, and his soul is empty: so shall be the multitude of all the Gentiles, that have fought against mount Sion.
mana ka ngʼama kech kayo to leko ni chiemo, to ka ochiewo to oyudo mana ka kech pod kaye, kendo mana kaka ngʼat ma riyo oloyo leko ni modho pi, to ka ochiewo to opodho mana piny ka riyo oloye. E kaka nobedi kuom ogendini mag pinje duto makedo gi Got Sayun.
9 Be astonished, and wander, waver, and stagger: be drunk, and not with wine: stagger, and not with drunkenness.
Bed mobuok kendo kiwuoro, dinuru wengeu kendo kik unen, meruru amera to ok gi divai, kendo themburu athemba to ok gi kongʼo.
10 For the Lord hath mingled for you the spirit of a deep sleep, he will shut up your eyes, he will cover your prophets and princes, that see visions.
Jehova Nyasaye osekelo nindo matut kuomu, oseumo wengeu (un jonabi); kendo oseumo wiyeu (un jokor wach).
11 And the vision of all shall be unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which when they shall deliver to one that is learned, they shall say: Read this: and he shall answer: I cannot, for it is sealed.
Un to fwenyruokni duto nochalnu mana ka gima nono, mana ka kitabu modin gi duogo. To ka imiyo ngʼato manyalo somo, miwachone niya, “Yie isom kitabuni,” to obiro dwoko niya, “Ok anyal some nikech odine gi duogo.”
12 And the book shall be given to one that knoweth no letters, and it shall be said to him: Read: and he shall answer: I know no letters.
Kata ka imiyo ngʼat makia somo miwachone niya, “Yie isomna kitabuni,” to obiro dwoko niya, “Ok angʼeyo somo.”
13 And the Lord said: Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips glorify me, but their heart is far from me, and they have feared me with the commandment and doctrines of men:
Ruoth Nyasaye wacho niya: Jogi sudo ira mana gi weche manie dhogi kendo gipaka mana gi dhogi kende, to chunygi bor koda. Yo ma gilamago gin mana chike mipuonjo gi dhano.
14 Therefore behold I will proceed to cause an admiration in this people, by a great and wonderful miracle: for wisdom shall perish from their wise men, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.
Kuom mano anachak abwog chuny jogi gi masira bangʼ masira, mi rieko mar jorieko nolal kendo ngʼeyo mar joma ongʼeyo norum.
15 Woe to you that are deep of heart, to hide your counsel from the Lord: and their works are in the dark, and they say: Who seeth us, and who knoweth us?
Ginine malit jogo maparo timo gimoro amora mondo gipandgo timbegi ne Jehova Nyasaye, ma gin joma timo timbegi e mudho ka giparo niya, “Ere ngʼama nenowa? En ngʼa mabiro ngʼeyo?”
16 This thought of yours is perverse: as if the clay should think against the potter, and the work should say to the maker thereof: Thou madest me not: or the thing framed should say to him that fashioned it: Thou understandest not.
Iloko gik moko ataro, mana ka gima jachwech bende chal gi lowo mochweyo! Bende gima ochwe nyalo wachone jachwechne niya, “Ne ok ichweya?” Koso agulu bende nyalo wachone jachwechne niya, “Onge gima ingʼeyo?”
17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Libanus shall be turned into charmel, and charmel shall be esteemed as a forest?
Kuom ndalo matin kende, donge Lebanon nolok mana ka puodho momewo kendo puodho momewo nochal mana gi bungu?
18 And in that day the deaf shall hear the words of the book, and out of darkness and obscurity the eyes of the blind shall see.
E kindeno joma itgi odino nowinj weche manie kitabu, mi joma osebedo kokuyo, kendo manie mudho mandiwa wengegi nonen.
19 And the meek shall increase their joy in the Lord, and the poor men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
Joma obolore nochak obed gi mor kuom Jehova Nyasaye; kendo joma ochando, bende nobed gi mor kuom Jal Maler mar Israel.
20 For he that did prevail hath failed, the scorner is consumed, and they are all cut off that watched for iniquity:
Joma timbegi mono nolal nono, jo-jar ji bende nolal nono, kendo jogo duto ma timbegi mono notieki;
21 That made men sin by word, and supplanted him that reproved them in the gate, and declined in vain from the just.
gin jogo machiwo neno mar miriambo mondo omi ngʼato onere ni jaketho, kendo mawuondo jangʼad bura mi omi ngʼat maonge ketho tamie adierane.
22 Therefore thus saith the Lord to the house of Jacob, he that redeemed Abraham: Jacob shall not now be confounded, neither shall his countenance now be ashamed:
Kuom mano ma e wach ma Jehova Nyasaye, mane oreso Ibrahim wachone od Jakobo ni, Jakobo ok none wichkuot kendo; bende ok ginichak ginenre mokuyo.
23 But when he shall see his children, the work of my hands in the midst of him sanctifying my name, and they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall glorify the God of Israel:
Ka gineno nyithindgi ma tich lweta e kindgi, to gibiro rito nyinga obed maler, kendo gibiro yie kuom ler mar Jal Maler mar Jakobo, kendo gichungʼ e nyim Nyasach Israel gi luor maduongʼ.
24 And they that erred in spirit, shall know understanding, and they that murmured, shall learn the law.
Joma parogi bayo noyud rieko; kendo joma kwedo wach bende nopuonji.
