Isaiah 56
1 Thus saith the Lord: Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my justice to be revealed.
Nke a bụ ihe Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Debenụ ikpe ziri ezi, meekwanụ ihe ziri ezi. Nʼihi na nzọpụta m dị nso, ezi omume m ga-apụta ihe mgbe na-adịghị anya.
2 Blessed is the man that doth this, and the son of man that shall lay hold on this: that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, that keepeth his hands from doing any evil.
Ngọzị na-adịrị onye na-eme nke a, bụ onye ahụ nke na-ejidesi ya aka ike, onye ahụ nke na-edebe ụbọchị izuike m na-emerụghị ya, nke na-edebekwa aka ya ka ọ ghara ime ihe ọjọọ.”
3 And let not the son of the stranger, that adhereth to the Lord, speak, saying: The Lord will divide and separate me from his people. And let not the eunuch say: Behold I am a dry tree.
Ka onye ala ọzọ bụ onye jikọrọ onwe ya na Onyenwe anyị sị, “Onyenwe anyị aghaghị i site na ndị ya kewapụ m.” Ka onye onozi ọbụla gharakwa ị sị “Mụ onwe m bụ naanị osisi kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ.”
4 For thus saith the Lord to the eunuchs, They that shall keep my sabbaths, and shall choose the things that please me, and shall hold fast my covenant:
Nʼihi na otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru: “Nye ndị onozi ahụ na-edebe ụbọchị izuike m niile, ndị na-ahọrọ ihe na-atọ m ụtọ, na ndị na-ejidesikwa ọgbụgba ndụ m ike.
5 I will give to them in my house, and within my walls, a place, and a name better than sons and daughters: I will give them an everlasting name which shall never perish.
Aga m enye ha nʼime ụlọ m na nʼetiti mgbidi ya, ihe ncheta na aha dị mma karịa ụmụ ndị ikom na ụmụ ndị inyom. Aga m enye ha aha ga-adị ruo ebighị ebi nke a na-agaghị echezọ ruo ebighị ebi.
6 And the children of the stranger that adhere to the Lord, to worship him, and to love his name, to be his servants: every one that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and that holdeth fast my covenant:
Ma ndị mba ọzọ ndị gbakwuuru Onyenwe anyị ijere ya ozi, na ịhụ aha Onyenwe anyị nʼanya, nakwa ị bụ ndị ohu ya, ndị niile na-edebe ụbọchị izuike nsọ na-emerụghị ya, na ndị jidesiri ọgbụgba ndụ m ike,
7 I will bring them into my holy mount, and will make them joyful in my house of prayer: their holocausts, and their victims shall please me upon my altar: for my house shall be called the house of prayer, for all nations.
ndị a ka m ga-akpọta nʼugwu nsọ m, meekwa ka ha ṅụrịa ọṅụ nʼime ụlọ ekpere m. Aga m anabata aja nsure ọkụ ha na onyinye niile ha nyere nʼebe ịchụ aja m. Nʼihi na a ga-akpọ ụlọ m Ụlọ Ekpere nye mba niile dị iche iche.”
8 The Lord God, who gathereth the scattered of Israel, saith: I will still gather unto him his congregation.
Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara, bụ onye ahụ na-eme ka Izrel si nʼebe ha gbapụrụ ọsọ lọta, “Aga m achịkọtakwa ndị ọzọ tinyere ha tinyekọtara na ndị ya achịkọtarala.”
9 All ye beasts of the field come to devour, all ye beasts of the forest.
Bịanụ, unu anụmanụ niile nke oke ọhịa. Bịanụ dọgbuo, unu ụmụ anụmanụ nke oke ọhịa.
10 His watchmen are all blind, they are all ignorant: dumb dogs not able to bark, seeing vain things, sleeping and loving dreams.
Nʼihi na ndị na-eche ndị m nche kpuru ìsì. Ha niile bụ ndị amamihe kọrọ. Ha dị ka nkịta dara ogbi, nke na-adịghị agbọ ụja. Ha hụrụ ịrahụ ụra na ịrọ nrọ, na idina ndina nʼanya.
11 And meet impudent dogs, they never had enough: the shepherds themselves knew no understanding: all have turned aside into their own way, every one after his own gain, from the first even to the last.
Ha bụ nkịta na-eribiga nri oke; ha adịghị enwe afọ ojuju. Ha bụ ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ na-enweghị nghọta, ha niile echela ihu nʼụzọ nke aka ha, onye ọbụla na-agbalịsị ike ịchọta uru nke ya.
12 Come, let us take wine, and be filled with drunkenness: and it shall be as today, so also tomorrow, and much more.
Onye ọbụla na-asị, “Bịa ka m weta mmanya, ka anyị ṅụjuokwa mmanya nʼaba nʼanya afọ anyị. Echi ga-adịkwa ka taa, ma ọ bụkwanụ dị mma karịa.”
