Isaiah 29
1 Ah altar, altar of the citie that Dauid dwelt in: adde yere vnto yere: let them kill lambs.
Ariel, Ariel, inine malit, in dala maduongʼ mane Daudi odakie! Meduru dhi nyime ka utimo sewni higa ka higa.
2 But I wil bring the altar into distresse, and there shalbe heauines and sorowe, and it shall be vnto me like an altar.
To kata kamano abiro monjo Ariel mi enobedi gi ywagruok kod kuyo, kendo enochalna mana ka kendo mar misango.
3 And I wil besiege thee as a circle, and fight against thee on a mount, and will cast vp ramparts against thee.
Abiro lwori koni gi koni, mi anagoni agengʼa kendo namonji gi tekona.
4 So shalt thou be humbled, and shalt speake out of the ground, and thy speach shalbe as out of the dust: thy voyce also shall be out of the ground like him that hath a spirite of diuination, and thy talking shall whisper out of the dust.
Nadwoki piny miwuo mana koa ei lowo; kendo wecheni nowuog mana koa ei buru. Dwondi nochal mana ka dwond jachien moa ei lowo; kendo koa ei lowo dwondi nowinji.
5 Moreouer, the multitude of thy strangers shalbe like small dust, and the multitude of strong men shalbe as chaffe that passeth away, and it shall be in a moment, euen suddenly.
To jowasiki mangʼeny nochal gi buru mayom, kendo oganda mager nochal gi mihudhwe ma yamo tero. Apoya nono, ka diemo wangʼ,
6 Thou shalt be visited of the Lord of hostes with thunder, and shaking, and a great noyse, a whirlewinde, and a tempest, and a flame of a deuouring fire.
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego nobi gi mor polo gi yiengni mar piny kod koko maduongʼ, gi ahiti kod kalausi kendo gi mach mager.
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against the altar, shalbe as a dreame or vision by night: euen all they that make the warre against it, and strong holdes against it, and lay siege vnto it.
Eka ogendini mag pinje duto makedo gi Ariel, mamonjo kuondege motegno kendo lwore, biro chalo mana ka lek kata ka fweny mar otieno,
8 And it shalbe like as an hungry man dreameth, and beholde, he eateth: and when he awaketh, his soule is emptie: or like as a thirsty man dreameth, and loe, he is drinking, and when he awaketh, beholde, he is faint, and his soule longeth: so shall the multitude of all nations be that fight against mount Zion.
mana ka ngʼama kech kayo to leko ni chiemo, to ka ochiewo to oyudo mana ka kech pod kaye, kendo mana kaka ngʼat ma riyo oloyo leko ni modho pi, to ka ochiewo to opodho mana piny ka riyo oloye. E kaka nobedi kuom ogendini mag pinje duto makedo gi Got Sayun.
9 Stay your selues, and wonder: they are blinde, and make you blinde: they are drunken but not with wine: they stagger, but not by strong drinke.
Bed mobuok kendo kiwuoro, dinuru wengeu kendo kik unen, meruru amera to ok gi divai, kendo themburu athemba to ok gi kongʼo.
10 For the Lord hath couered you with a spirite of slumber, and hath shut vp your eyes: the Prophets, and your chiefe Seers hath he couered.
Jehova Nyasaye osekelo nindo matut kuomu, oseumo wengeu (un jonabi); kendo oseumo wiyeu (un jokor wach).
11 And the vision of them all is become vnto you, as the wordes of a booke that is sealed vp, which they deliuer to one that can reade, saying, Reade this, I pray thee. Then shall he say, I can not: for it is sealed.
Un to fwenyruokni duto nochalnu mana ka gima nono, mana ka kitabu modin gi duogo. To ka imiyo ngʼato manyalo somo, miwachone niya, “Yie isom kitabuni,” to obiro dwoko niya, “Ok anyal some nikech odine gi duogo.”
12 And the booke is giuen vnto him that can not reade, saying, Reade this, I pray thee. And he shall say, I can not reade.
Kata ka imiyo ngʼat makia somo miwachone niya, “Yie isomna kitabuni,” to obiro dwoko niya, “Ok angʼeyo somo.”
13 Therefore the Lord sayd, Because this people come neere vnto me with their mouth, and honour me with their lips, but haue remooued their heart farre from me, and their feare toward me was taught by the precept of men,
Ruoth Nyasaye wacho niya: Jogi sudo ira mana gi weche manie dhogi kendo gipaka mana gi dhogi kende, to chunygi bor koda. Yo ma gilamago gin mana chike mipuonjo gi dhano.
14 Therefore behold, I wil againe doe a marueilous worke in this people, euen a marueilous worke, and a wonder: for the wisdome of their wise men shall perish, and the vnderstanding of their prudent men shalbe hid.
Kuom mano anachak abwog chuny jogi gi masira bangʼ masira, mi rieko mar jorieko nolal kendo ngʼeyo mar joma ongʼeyo norum.
15 Wo vnto them that seeke deepe to hide their counsell from the Lord: for their workes are in darkenes, and they say, Who seeth vs? and who knoweth vs?
Ginine malit jogo maparo timo gimoro amora mondo gipandgo timbegi ne Jehova Nyasaye, ma gin joma timo timbegi e mudho ka giparo niya, “Ere ngʼama nenowa? En ngʼa mabiro ngʼeyo?”
16 Your turning of deuises shall it not be esteemed as the potters clay? for shall the worke say of him that made it, Hee made me not? or the thing formed, say of him that facioned it, He had none vnderstanding?
Iloko gik moko ataro, mana ka gima jachwech bende chal gi lowo mochweyo! Bende gima ochwe nyalo wachone jachwechne niya, “Ne ok ichweya?” Koso agulu bende nyalo wachone jachwechne niya, “Onge gima ingʼeyo?”
17 Is it not yet but a litle while, and Lebanon shall be turned into Carmel? and Carmel shall be counted as a forest?
Kuom ndalo matin kende, donge Lebanon nolok mana ka puodho momewo kendo puodho momewo nochal mana gi bungu?
18 And in that day shall the deafe heare the wordes of the booke, and the eyes of the blinde shall see out of obscuritie, and out of darkenesse.
E kindeno joma itgi odino nowinj weche manie kitabu, mi joma osebedo kokuyo, kendo manie mudho mandiwa wengegi nonen.
19 The meeke in the Lord shall receiue ioye againe, and the poore men shall reioyce in the holy one of Israel.
Joma obolore nochak obed gi mor kuom Jehova Nyasaye; kendo joma ochando, bende nobed gi mor kuom Jal Maler mar Israel.
20 For the cruel man shall cease, and the scornefull shalbe consumed: and all that hasted to iniquitie, shalbe cut off:
Joma timbegi mono nolal nono, jo-jar ji bende nolal nono, kendo jogo duto ma timbegi mono notieki;
21 Which made a man to sinne in ye worde, and tooke him in a snare: which reproued them in the gate, and made the iust to fall without cause.
gin jogo machiwo neno mar miriambo mondo omi ngʼato onere ni jaketho, kendo mawuondo jangʼad bura mi omi ngʼat maonge ketho tamie adierane.
22 Therefore thus sayth the Lord vnto the house of Iaakob, euen hee that redeemed Abraham, Iaakob shall not now be confounded, neither now shall his face be pale.
Kuom mano ma e wach ma Jehova Nyasaye, mane oreso Ibrahim wachone od Jakobo ni, Jakobo ok none wichkuot kendo; bende ok ginichak ginenre mokuyo.
23 But when he seeth his children, the worke of mine hands, in the mids of him, they shall sanctifie my Name, and sanctifie the holy one of Iaakob, and shall feare the God of Israel.
Ka gineno nyithindgi ma tich lweta e kindgi, to gibiro rito nyinga obed maler, kendo gibiro yie kuom ler mar Jal Maler mar Jakobo, kendo gichungʼ e nyim Nyasach Israel gi luor maduongʼ.
24 Then they that erred in spirit, shall haue vnderstanding, and they that murmured, shall learne doctrine.
Joma parogi bayo noyud rieko; kendo joma kwedo wach bende nopuonji.
