Isaiah 55
1 All you that thirst, come to the waters: and you that have no money make haste, buy, and eat: come ye, buy wine and milk without money, and without any price.
Gee ntị, bịa onye ọbụla akpịrị na-akpọ nkụ, bịanụ na mmiri, unu ndị na-enweghị ego bịanụ zụọ, riekwa. Bịanụ, zuru mmanya na mmiri ara ehi na-ejighị ego na-arụghị ọnụahịa ọbụla.
2 Why do you spend money for that which is not breed, and your labour for that which doth not satisfy you? Hearken diligently to me, and eat that which is good, and your soul shall be delighted in fatness.
Nʼihi gịnị ka i ji na-atụfu ego gị ịzụ ihe na-abụghị ezi nri? Gịnị mere i ji na-adọgbu onwe gị nʼọrụ nʼihe na-apụghị iju gị afọ? Gee ntị, geenụ m ntị nke ọma, rie ezigbo nri mkpụrụobi gị ga-enwe afọ ojuju na nri dị ezi mma!
3 Incline your ear and come to me: hear and your soul shall lire, and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, the faithful mercies of David.
“Tọọnụ ntị unu nʼala, bịakwute m! Gee ntị, ka inwe ike dị ndụ. Mụ na unu ga-aba nʼọgbụgba ndụ ebighị ebi, bụ ịhụnanya m kwesiri ntụkwasị obi nke m kwere Devid na nkwa.
4 Behold I have given him for a witness to the people, for a leader and a master to the Gentiles.
Lee, emere m ya ka ọ ghọọrọ ndị niile dị iche iche onyeama, ka ọ bụrụ onyendu na onyeisi ọchịchị nye ndị niile dị iche iche.
5 Behold thou shalt call a nation, which thou knewest not: and the nations that knew not thee shall run to thee, because of the Lord thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for he hath glorified thee.
Nʼezie, gị onwe gị ga-akpọku mba dị iche iche na i maghị, mba ndị ahụ na-amaghị gị ga-ejikwa ọsọ gbakwute gị, nʼihi Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, Onye nsọ nke Izrel, nʼihi na o meela ka ị bụrụ ihe dị oke mma.”
6 Seek ye the Lord, while he may be found: call upon him, while he is near.
Chọọnụ Onyenwe anyị mgbe a ga-achọta ya. Kpọkuonụ ya mgbe ọ nọ nso.
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unjust man his thoughts, and let him return to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him, and to our God: for he is bountiful to forgive.
Ka onye na-eme ihe ọjọọ hapụ ụzọ ya, ka onye ajọ omume hapụ echiche ọjọọ ya niile. Ka ha tụgharịa bịakwute Onyenwe anyị, ọ ga-emere ha ebere, ha bịakwute Chineke anyị, nʼihi na ọ ga-agbaghara ha mmehie ha niile.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts: nor your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
“Nʼihi na echiche m ha abụghị echiche unu, ụzọ unu niile, ha abụkwaghị ụzọ m,” ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara.
9 For as the heavens are exalted above the earth, so are my ways exalted above your ways, and my thoughts above your thoughts.
“Nʼihi na dịka eluigwe si dị elu karịa ụwa, otu a ka ụzọ m niile si dị elu karịa ụzọ unu niile, otu a kwa ka echiche m niile si dị elu karịa echiche unu niile.
10 And as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and return no more thither, but soak the earth, and water it, and make it to spring, and give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
Dịka mmiri na mkpụrụ mmiri si esi nʼeluigwe ada nʼụwa na-alaghachighị nʼeluigwe ma ọ bụrụ na o meghị ka mmiri dee ala, mee ka ihe ubi pupụta, too eto, meekwa ka ọ mịa mkpụrụ nye onye na-akụ ihe ọkụkụ, bụrụkwa ihe oriri nye onye na-eri nri.
11 So shall my word be, which shall go forth from my mouth: it shall not return to me void, but it shall do whatsoever I please, and shall prosper in the things for which I sent it.
Otu a ka okwu si m nʼọnụ pụọ si adị. Ana m ezipu ya, ọ gaghị alọghachikwute m nʼefu. Ọ ga-emezu ihe niile m chọrọ ka o mee, baakwa ụba ebe ọbụla m zigara ya.
12 For you shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall sing praise before yen, and all the trees of the country shall clap their hands.
Nʼihi na unu ga-eji ọṅụ pụọ, a ga-esikwa nʼebe ahụ dupụta unu nʼudo. Ugwu ukwu niile, na ugwu nta niile na osisi niile nke ubi, ga-eti mkpu ọṅụ, kụọkwa aka nʼobi ụtọ.
13 Instead of the shrub, shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the nettle, shall come up the myrtle tree: and the Lord shall be named for an everlasting sign, that shall not be taken away.
Ebe ogwu na-eto na mbụ, osisi junipa ga-eto na ya; ebe uke toro, osisi mietul ga-eto na ya. Ihe ndị a ga-aghọrọ Onyenwe anyị aha dị ukwuu, nke ga-abụkwa ihe ịrịbama ga-adị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
