< Isaiah 16 >

1 Send yee a lambe to the ruler of the worlde from the rocke of the wildernesse, vnto the mountaine of the daughter Zion.
Twarĩrai ũrĩa wathanaga bũrũri tũtũrũme twa kũrĩha igooti, kuuma itũũra rĩa Sela, gũtuĩkanĩria werũ-inĩ, nginya kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Mwarĩ wa Zayuni.
2 For it shall be as a birde that flieth, and a nest forsaken: the daughters of Moab shall be at the foordes of Arnon.
O ta ũrĩa nyoni ciũrũũraga ciatharĩrio gĩtara gĩacio, ũguo no taguo andũ-a-nja a Moabi magaikara marĩ mariũko-inĩ ma Arinoni.
3 Gather a cousel, execute iudgement: make thy shadowe as the night in the midday: hide them that are chased out: bewray not him that is fled.
“Tũhei kĩrĩra, na mũtue itua. Tũmai kĩĩruru kĩanyu gĩtuĩke ta ũtukũ, o kũrĩ mũthenya barigici. Hithai arĩa maingatĩtwo kwao, na mũtigakunyanĩre arĩa moorĩire kwanyu.
4 Let my banished dwell with thee: Moab be thou their couert from the face of the destroyer: for the extortioner shall ende: the destroyer shalbe consumed, and the oppressour shall cease out of the land.
Rekei andũ a Moabi arĩa mehithĩte kwanyu maikare na inyuĩ; tuĩkai kĩĩgitio kĩao kuuma kũrĩ mwanangani.” Mũhinyanĩrĩria nĩagakinya mũthia, naguo mwanangĩko ũthire; nake mũũgiti nĩakabuĩria kuuma bũrũri-inĩ.
5 And in mercy shall the throne be prepared, and hee shall sit vpon it in stedfastnesse, in the tabernacle of Dauid, iudging, and seeking iudgement, and hasting iustice.
Gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene gĩkaahaandwo na wendo; na mũndũ mwĩhokeku nĩwe ũgaagĩikarĩra, o mũndũ wa kuuma nyũmba ya Daudi, mũndũ ũrĩa ũgaatuanagĩra ciira arũmĩrĩire o kĩhooto, namo maũndũ ma ũthingu nĩmo akaahiũhaga gwĩka.
6 We haue heard of the pride of Moab, (he is very proud) euen his pride, and his arrogancie, and his indignation, but his lies shall not be so.
Nĩtũiguĩte ũhoro wa mwĩtĩĩo wa Moabi: tũkaigua ũhoro wa mwĩtĩĩo wake mũkĩru na mwĩĩkĩrĩro wake, tũkaigua ũhoro wa mwĩtĩĩo wake na rũngʼathio rwake; no rĩrĩ, mwĩgaatho ũcio wake no wa tũhũ.
7 Therefore shall Moab howle vnto Moab: euery one shall howle: for the foundations of Kirhareseth shall ye mourne, yet they shalbe striken.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Moabi nĩkũgirĩka maragirĩka, maragirĩka hamwe nĩ ũndũ wa Moabi. Cakayai na mũnyiitwo nĩ kĩeha nĩ ũndũ wa andũ a Kiri-Haresethi.
8 For ye vineyards of Heshbon are cut downe, and the vine of Sibmah: the lordes of the heathen haue broken the principal vines thereof: they are come vnto Iaazer: they wandred in the wildernesse: her goodly branches stretched out them selues, and went ouer the sea.
Mĩgũnda ya Heshiboni nĩĩrahooha, o na mĩthabibũ ya Sibima o nayo nĩĩrahooha. Aathani a ndũrĩrĩ nĩmarangĩrĩirie mĩthabibũ ĩrĩa mĩega mũno, ĩrĩa hĩndĩ ĩmwe yakinyĩte Jazeri, na ĩgatheerema yerekeire werũ-inĩ. Thuuna ciayo ciatambĩte igakinya o iria-inĩ.
9 Therefore will I weepe with the weeping of Iaazer, and of the vine of Sibmah, O Heshbon: and Elealeh, I will make thee drunke with my teares, because vpon thy sommer fruits, and vpon thy haruest a showting is fallen.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩndĩrarĩra, ngarĩra o ta Jazeri, ngĩrĩrĩra mĩthabibũ ya Sibima. Wee Heshiboni, o nawe Eleale, ngũmũihũgia na maithori! Tondũ mbugĩrĩrio cia gĩkeno kĩanyu nĩ ũndũ wa matunda manyu marĩa meruĩte, na nĩ ũndũ wa magetha manyu ma ngano nĩithirĩte.
10 And gladnes is taken away, and ioy out of the plentifull fielde: and in the vineyardes shall be no singing nor shouting for ioy: the treader shall not tread wine in the wine presses: I haue caused the reioycing to cease.
Gũtirĩ gĩkeno kana ndũhiũ mĩgũnda-inĩ ya matunda; gũtirĩ mũndũ ũraina kana akoigĩrĩria mĩgũnda-inĩ ya mĩthabibũ, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũrahiha ndibei kĩhihĩro-inĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩndũmĩte ngemi cia magetha ciage kũiguuo.
11 Wherefore, my bowels shall sounde like an harpe for Moab, and mine inwarde partes for Ker-haresh.
Ngoro yakwa nĩĩracakaĩra Moabi o ta kĩnanda kĩa mũgeeto, nayo ngoro yakwa ĩgacaĩra Kiri-Heresethu.
12 And when it shall appeare that Moab shall be wearie of his hie places, then shall hee come to his temple to praie, but he shall not preuaile.
Rĩrĩa andũ a Moabi maathiĩ kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru makahooe, no kwĩnogia menogagia; hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maathiĩ ihooero-inĩ rĩao kũhooya, no wĩra wa tũhũ marutaga.
13 This is the word that the Lord hath spoken against Moab since that time.
Ũyũ nĩguo ũhoro ũrĩa Jehova aarĩtie ũkoniĩ Moabi.
14 And nowe the Lord hath spoken, saying, In three yeres, as the yeeres of a hireling, and the glorie of Moab shall be contemned in all the great multitude, and the remnant shalbe very small and feeble.
No rĩrĩ, rĩu Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Mĩaka ĩtatũ ĩtanathira, ĩtarĩtwo ta ũrĩa mĩaka ya mũndũ wandĩkĩtwo wĩra ĩrĩkanagĩrwo-rĩ, riiri wa Moabi hamwe na andũ ake othe nĩũkanyararwo, namo matigari make makorwo marĩ manini mũno na makahinyara.”
