Isaiah 17
1 The burden of Damascus. Beholde, Damascus is taken away from being a citie, for it shall be a ruinous heape.
Ĩno nĩyo ndũmĩrĩri nditũ ĩkoniĩ Dameski: “Atĩrĩrĩ, itũũra rĩa Dameski rĩtigũcooka gũtuĩka itũũra inene rĩngĩ, no rĩrĩ, rĩgaatuĩka hĩba ya mwanangĩko.
2 The cities of Aroer shall be forsaken: they shall be for the flockes: for they shall lye there, and none shall make them afraide.
Matũũra marĩa manene ma Aroeri nĩmagatiganĩrio, matigĩrwo ndũũru cia mbũri iria igaakomaga kũu, gũtarĩ mũndũ wa gũcimakia.
3 The munition also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdome from Damascus, and the remnant of Aram shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
Kĩĩgitĩro kĩrĩa kĩrũmu kĩa Efiraimu nĩgĩkeherio, o na hinya wa ũthamaki weherio Dameski; namo matigari ma Suriata makaahaana o ta riiri wa andũ a Isiraeli,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga.
4 And in that day the glorie of Iaakob shall be impouerished, and the fatnes of his flesh shalbe made leane.
“Ihinda rĩu riiri wa Jakubu nĩ ũgaatheũka; naguo mwĩrĩ ũcio wake mũnoru ũhĩnje.
5 And it shalbe as when the haruest man gathereth the corne, and reapeth the eares with his arme, and he shall be as he that gathereth the eares in the valley of Rephaim.
Gũkaahaana o ta rĩrĩa mũgethi acookanagĩrĩria ngano ĩrĩa ĩtarĩ ngethe, akagetha ngano na guoko gwake: gũkahaana ta mũndũ ũkũhaara itira cia ngano Gĩtuamba-inĩ kĩa Refaimu.
6 Yet a gathering of grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an oliue tree, two or three beries are in the top of the vpmost boughes, and foure or fiue in the hie branches of the fruite thereof, sayeth the Lord God of Israel.
No rĩrĩ, nĩgũgatigwo ngano ĩngĩhaarwo, o ta ũrĩa maciaro ma mũtamaiyũ matangĩitĩka mothe mũtĩ ũcio ũngĩinainio, no ndamaiyũ igĩrĩ kana ithatũ nĩitigaraga honge-inĩ iria irĩ igũrũ gacũmbĩrĩ, o na inya kana ithano igatigara honge-inĩ iria irĩ na maciaro maingĩ,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli ekuuga.
7 At that day shall a man looke to his maker, and his eyes shall looke to the holy one of Israel.
Mũthenya ũcio, andũ magaacũthĩrĩria Ũrĩa Mũũmbi wao, namo maitho mao marore Ũrĩa Mũtheru wa Isiraeli.
8 And hee shall not looke to the altars, the workes of his owne hands, neither shall he looke to those thinges, which his owne fingers haue made, as groues and images.
Matigacũthĩrĩria igongona iria mathondekete na moko mao, na matikarũmbũiya itugĩ cia Ashera, na magongona marĩa methondekeire ma gũcinĩra ũbumba.
9 In that day shall the cities of their strength be as the forsaking of boughes and branches, which they did forsake, because of the children of Israel, and there shall be desolation.
Mũthenya ũcio matũũra mao manene marĩa marĩ hinya, marĩa maatiganĩirio makĩũrĩra andũ a Isiraeli, makahaana ta kũndũ gũtiganĩrie gũgatuĩka gĩthaka, na gũgakũra mahuti. Namo matũũra macio magaakira ihooru.
10 Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy saluation, and hast not remembred the God of thy strength, therefore shalt thou set pleasant plantes, and shalt graffe strange vine branches:
Nĩmũriganĩirwo nĩ Ngai, Mũhonokia wanyu; nĩmwagĩte kũririkana Rwaro rũu rwa Ihiga, o rũu kĩĩgitĩro kĩanyu. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio o na mũngĩkahaanda mĩmera ĩrĩa mĩega mũno, na mũhaande mĩthabibũ ya kuuma kũndũ kũngĩ,
11 In the day shalt thou make thy plant to growe, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seede to florish: but the haruest shall be gone in the day of possession, and there shalbe desperate sorrowe.
o na mũngĩgaatũma ĩkũre mũthenya o ro ũcio mũkaamĩhaanda, o na rũciinĩ rũrũ rũngĩ mũtũme ĩrute kĩro-rĩ, gũtirĩ magetha mũkoona mũthenya ũcio wa mũrimũ na ruo rũtangĩthira.
12 Ah, the multitude of many people, they shall make a sounde like the noyse of the sea: for the noyse of the people shall make a sounde like the noyse of mightie waters.
Ĩiya-ĩ, mũrurumo wa ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ, iraruruma ta iria rĩkĩhuhũkania! Ĩiya-ĩ, inegene rĩa kĩrĩndĩ kĩranegena, o ta mũrurumo wa maaĩ maingĩ.
13 The people shall make a sounde like the noise of many waters: but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee farre off, and shalbe chased as the chaffe of the mountaines before the winde, and as a rolling thing before the whirlewinde.
O na gũtuĩka ndũrĩrĩ iranegena na mũrurumo ta wa ndiihũ cia maaĩ maingĩ-rĩ, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa we mwene aacikũũma, ciũraga igathiĩ kũndũ kũraya mũno, ihurutĩtwo nĩ rũhuho ta ũrĩa mũũngũ ũrĩ irĩma-inĩ ũmbũragwo, kana ta riya rĩgĩthiũrũrũkio nĩ rũhuho rũnene.
14 And loe, in the euening there is trouble: but afore the morning it is gone. This is the portion of them that spoyle vs, and the lot of them that robbe vs.
Hwaĩ-inĩ, o rĩmwe gũkagĩa kĩmako kĩnene! Gũtanakĩa-rĩ, andũ matirĩ ho! Rĩu nĩrĩo igai rĩa andũ arĩa matũtunyaga indo ciitũ, ũcio nĩguo mũtĩ ũrĩa ũgwĩrĩire andũ arĩa matũtahaga indo ciitũ.
