Isaiah 47
1 Come downe and sit in the dust: O virgine, daughter Babel, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called, Tender and delicate.
“Rịda nʼala, nọdụ na uzuzu, gị nwaagbọghọ na-amaghị nwoke, bụ ada Babilọn, nọdụ nʼala na-ejighị ocheeze, gị eze nwanyị obodo ndị Babilọn. Agaghị akpọkwa gị onye dị nro, maọbụ onye dị pekepeke.
2 Take the mill stones, and grinde meale: loose thy lockes: make bare the feete: vncouer the legge, and passe through the floods.
Were nkume igwe nri gwee ọka, wepụ akwa ahụ i ji kpuchie ihu gị. Chilite uwe mwụda gị, kpughepụ ogwe ụkwụ gị, mgbe ị na-agabiga iyi dị iche iche.
3 Thy filthinesse shall be discouered, and thy shame shall be seene: I will take vengeance, and I will not meete thee as a man.
A ga-ekpughe ọtọ gị, tinyekwa gị nʼọnọdụ ihere. Nʼihi na aga m abọtara ndị m ọbọ, agaghị m elekwa anya nʼazụ.”
4 Our redeemer, the Lord of hostes is his Name, the holy one of Israel.
Otu a ka Onye mgbapụta anyị kwuru, Onye ga-azọpụta Izrel. Aha ya bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, Onye nsọ Izrel.
5 Sit still, and get thee into darkenesse, O daughter of the Chaldeas: for thou shalt no more be called, The ladie of kingdomes.
“Nọdụ duu, baa nʼime ọchịchịrị, gị eze obodo nke ndị Kaldịa; Ọ dịkwaghị mgbe ọzọ a ga-akpọ gị nwanyị nwe alaeze dị iche iche.
6 I was wroth with my people: I haue polluted mine inheritance, and giuen them into thine had: thou diddest shew them no mercy, but thou didest lay thy very heauy yoke vpon the ancient.
Ewesoro m ndị m iwe, mee ndị ahụ bụ ihe nketa m ka ha ghọọ ihe na-adịghị nsọ. Eweere m ha tinye gị nʼaka, ma i gosighị ha obi ebere. Ọ bụladị ndị bụ agadi nʼetiti ha ka ị bokwasịrị ibu arọ.
7 And thou saidest, I shall be a ladie for euer, so that thou diddest not set thy mind to these things, neither diddest thou remember ye latter end therof.
I kwuru sị, ‘Abụ m eze nwanyị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi!’ Ma i cheghị echiche banyere ihe ndị a, ị tụgharịghị uche banyere ihe pụrụ ime.
8 Therefore nowe heare, thou that art giuen to pleasures, and dwellest carelesse, Shee sayeth in her heart, I am and none els: I shall not sit as a widowe, neither shall knowe the losse of children.
“Ugbu a gee ntị, gị onye na-eme dịka o si tọọ gị ụtọ. Gee ntị, gị onye na-anọ nʼudo, na-asị onwe gị, ‘Ọ bụ naanị m dị, o nweghị onye ọzọ ka m nʼụwa. O nweghị mgbe m ga-adị ka nwanyị di ya nwụrụ, maọbụ dịka nwanyị ụmụ ya nwụrụ.’
9 But these two thinges shall come to thee suddenly on one day, the losse of children and widowhoode: they shall come vpon thee in their perfection, for the multitude of thy diuinations, and for the great abundance of thine inchanters.
Ma lee anya! Ihe abụọ ndị a na-aga ịbịakwasị gị na mberede. Nʼotu ụbọchị di gị ga-anwụ, ụmụ gị ga-anwụchakwa. Mgbaasị gị niile, na ịdị ike nke ọgwụ okike gị niile, agaghị egbochi ihe ndị a ịbịakwasị gị nʼuju.
10 For thou hast trusted in thy wickednesse: thou hast sayd, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, they haue caused thee to rebel, and thou hast saide in thine heart, I am, and none els.
Nʼihi na i werela obi gị tụkwasị nʼajọ omume gị ị na-asị, ‘O nweghị onye na-ahụ m.’ Ma amamihe gị na ihe ọmụma gị na-eduhie gị, mgbe ị na-asị onwe gị, ‘Ọ bụ naanị mụ onwe m, ọ dịghịkwa onye ọzọ ma ewezuga m.’
11 Therefore shall euill come vpon thee, and thou shalt not knowe the morning thereof: destruction shall fal vpon thee, which thou shalt not be able to put away: destruction shall come vpon thee suddenly, or thou beware.
Ihe ọjọọ ga-abịakwasị gị, ị gaghị ama otu ị ga-esi gbaa afa iwezuga ya. Oke mbibi ga-adakwasị gị nke ị na-agaghị enwe ike iji ego gbara onwe gị; Ịla nʼiyi nke ị na-atụghị anya ya ga-abịakwasị gị na mberede.
12 Stand now among thine inchanters, and in the multitude of thy southsaiers (with whome thou hast wearied thy selfe from thy youth) if so be thou maist haue profit, or if so be thou maist haue strength.
“Dokọtazie ọgwụ okike gị niile, na ihe mgbaasị gị niile. Ihe ndị ahụ niile i jirila na-eche onwe gị siterị na mgbe ị bụ nwantakịrị. Ma eleghị anya ha pụrụ inyere gị aka nʼoge dị nʼihu. Ị pụrụ iji ha menye ndị iro gị ụjọ, maọbụ mee ka ha maa jijiji.
13 Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels: let now the astrologers, the starre gasers, and prognosticatours stand vp, and saue thee from these things, that shall come vpon thee.
Ndụmọdụ niile a na-enye gị adịghị enyere gị aka. Mee ka ndị ahụ ihe banyere ngagharị ọnwa na kpakpando doro anya bịa nso. Kpọpụta ndị ahụ na-esite nʼihe ha hụrụ na kpakpando akọwa ihe ga-eme site nʼotu ọnwa ruo nʼọnwa nke ọzọ. Kpọkuo ha ka ha zọpụta gị site na nsogbu nke na-aga ịbịakwasị gị.
14 Beholde, they shall be as stubble: the fire shall burne them: they shall not deliuer their owne liues from the power of the flame: there shalbe no coles to warme at, nor light to sit by.
Lee, ha bụ ihe efu dịka ahịhịa kpọrọ nkụ. Ọkụ ga-erechapụkwa ha. Ha apụghịkwa ịzọpụta onwe ha site nʼọkụ ahụ na-enwusi ike. Nʼihi na ọkụ ahụ adịghị ka ọkụ a na-akwanye, nke a na-anya nʼoge oyi.
15 Thus shall they serue thee, with whom thou hast wearied thee, euen thy marchants from thy youth: euery one shall wander to his owne quarter: none shall saue thee.
Lee ihe ndị a na-enyocha kpakpando ga-emere gị, bụ ndị ị na-aṅa ntị na ndụmọdụ ha site na mgbe ị bụ nwantakịrị. Ha ga-ahapụ gị gaa nʼụzọ nke aka ha; ị gaghị enwekwa onye ga-azọpụta gị.
