< Isaiah 11 >
1 But there shall come a rodde foorth of the stocke of Ishai, and a grasse shall growe out of his rootes.
Chipukizi litatokea kutoka shina la Yese, kutoka mizizi yake Tawi litazaa tunda.
2 And the Spirite of the Lord shall rest vpon him: the Spirite of wisedome and vnderstanding, the Spirite of counsell and strength, the Spirite of knowledge, and of the feare of the Lord,
Roho wa Bwana atakaa juu yake, Roho wa hekima na wa ufahamu, Roho wa shauri na wa uweza, Roho wa maarifa na wa kumcha Bwana
3 And shall make him prudent in the feare of the Lord: for he shall not iudge after the sight of his eies, neither reproue by ye hearing of his eares.
naye atafurahia kumcha Bwana. Hatahukumu kwa yale ayaonayo kwa macho yake, wala kuamua kwa yale ayasikiayo kwa masikio yake,
4 But with righteousnesse shall he iudge the poore, and with equitie shall he reprooue for the meeke of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lippes shall he slay the wicked.
bali kwa uadilifu atahukumu wahitaji, kwa haki ataamua wanyenyekevu wa dunia. Ataipiga dunia kwa fimbo ya kinywa chake, kwa pumzi ya midomo yake atawaua waovu.
5 And iustice shall be ye girdle of his loynes, and faithfulnesse the girdle of his reines.
Haki itakuwa mkanda wake na uaminifu utakuwa mshipi kiunoni mwake.
6 The wolfe also shall dwell with the lambe, and the leopard shall lie with the kid, and the calfe, and the lyon, and the fat beast together, and a litle childe shall leade them.
Mbwa mwitu ataishi pamoja na mwana-kondoo, naye chui atalala pamoja na mbuzi, ndama, mwana simba na ngʼombe wa mwaka mmoja watakaa pamoja, naye mtoto mdogo atawaongoza.
7 And the kow and the beare shall feede: their yong ones shall lie together: and the lyon shall eate strawe like the bullocke.
Ngʼombe na dubu watalisha pamoja, watoto wao watalala pamoja, na simba atakula majani makavu kama maksai.
8 And the sucking childe shall play vpon the hole of the aspe, and the wained childe shall put his hand vpon the cockatrice hole.
Mtoto mchanga atacheza karibu na shimo la nyoka, naye mtoto mdogo ataweka mkono wake kwenye kiota cha fira.
9 Then shall none hurt nor destroy in all the mountaine of mine holines: for the earth shalbe full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters that couer the sea.
Hawatadhuru wala kuharibu juu ya mlima wangu mtakatifu wote, kwa kuwa dunia itajawa na kumjua Bwana kama maji yajazavyo bahari.
10 And in that day the roote of Ishai, which shall stand vp for a signe vnto the people, the nations shall seeke vnto it, and his rest shall be glorious.
Katika siku hiyo, Shina la Yese atasimama kama bendera kwa ajili ya mataifa. Mataifa yatakusanyika kwake, na mahali pake pa kupumzikia patakuwa utukufu.
11 And in the same day shall the Lord stretche out his hand againe the second time, to possesse the remnant of his people, (which shalbe left) of Asshur, and of Egypt, and of Pathros, and of Ethiopia, and of Elam, and of Shinear, and of Hamath, and of the yles of the sea.
Katika siku hiyo Bwana atanyoosha mkono wake mara ya pili kurudisha mabaki ya watu wake waliosalia kutoka Ashuru, Misri, Pathrosi, Kushi, Elamu, Babeli, Hamathi na kutoka visiwa vya baharini.
12 And he shall set vp a signe to the nations, and assemble the dispersed of Israel, and gather the scattered of Iudah from the foure corners of the worlde.
Atainua bendera kwa mataifa na kuwakusanya Waisraeli walioko uhamishoni; atawakusanya watu wa Yuda waliotawanyika kutoka pembe nne za dunia.
13 The hatred also of Ephraim shall depart, and the aduersaries of Iudah shalbe cut off: Ephraim shall not enuie Iudah, neither shall Iudah vexe Ephraim:
Wivu wa Efraimu utatoweka, na adui wa Yuda watakatiliwa mbali; Efraimu hatamwonea Yuda wivu, wala Yuda hatakuwa na uadui na Efraimu.
14 But they shall flee vpon the shoulders of the Philistims toward the West: they shall spoyle them of the East together: Edom and Moab shall be the stretching out of their hands, and the children of Ammon in their obedience.
Watawashukia katika miteremko ya Wafilisti hadi upande wa magharibi, kwa pamoja watawateka watu nyara hadi upande wa mashariki. Watawapiga Edomu na Moabu, na Waamoni watatawaliwa nao.
15 The Lord also shall vtterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptians sea, and with his mightie winde shall lift vp his hand ouer the riuer, and shall smite him in his seuen streames, and cause men to walke therein with shooes.
Bwana atakausha ghuba ya bahari ya Misri; kwa upepo mkavu ataupeleka mkono wake juu ya Mto Frati. Ataugawanya katika vijito saba ili watu waweze kuuvuka wakiwa wamevaa viatu.
16 And there shalbe a path to the remnant of his people, which are left of Asshur, like as it was vnto Israel in the day that he came vp out of the land of Egypt.
Itakuwepo njia kuu kwa mabaki ya watu wake wale waliosalia kutoka Ashuru, kama ilivyokuwa kwa Israeli walipopanda kutoka Misri.
