< Isaiah 32 >

1 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice.
Winjuru, Ruoth nobed gi loch makare kendo jotelo nobed gi telo mar adier.
2 And a man shall be as in a hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as by the watercourses in a dry place, as in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
Ngʼato ka ngʼato nobed kar gengʼruok ne kalausi mana ka aore mamol e piny ongoro, kendo mana ka tipo mar Lwanda maduongʼ e piny motwo.
3 And the eyes of them that see shall not be closed, and the ears of them that hear shall attend.
Eka wenge joma neno ok nochak ogengʼ, kendo joma ochiko itgi nowinj wach.
4 The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.
Chuny ngʼat mamuomore nowinj wach gi tiende kendo ngʼat ma radwal nowuo maber kendo maliw.
5 The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be noble.
Ok nochak oluong ngʼat mofuwo ni ngʼat malongʼo, kata ngʼat ma ja-miganga ni ngʼat ma ogen.
6 For the vile person will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise ungodliness, and to utter wickedness against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
Nimar ngʼat mofuwo wacho weche mofuwo, kendo opongʼ gi richo: Otimo timbe mag richo kendo olando miriambo kuom Jehova Nyasaye; mi omon joma odenyo chamo gik monego gicham kendo joma riyo oloyo otamoe pi.
7 The instruments also of the churl are evil; he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, and the needy when he speaketh right.
Ngʼat ma achach yorene richo, osiko ka chunye chano mana timo richo, kotieko jodhier gi miriambo kata obedo ni ywak mar joma ni e chandruok nikare.
8 But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.
To ngʼat mogen loso weche mabeyo kendo kuom timbe makare miyo ochungʼ motegno.
9 Rise up, ye women that are at ease, and hear my voice; ye confident daughters, give ear unto my speech.
Un mon maparo ni odak e ngima maber, auru malo kendo uwinj wachna, un nyiri modak gi kwe, winjuru gima awacho!
10 After a year and days shall ye be troubled, ye confident women; for the vintage shall fail, the ingathering shall not come.
Bangʼ higa achiel, un ma uparo nudak mokwe, kibaji nogou; cham ok nochiegi, kendo keyo mar mzabibu ok nobedie.
11 Tremble, ye women that are at ease; be troubled, ye confident ones; strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins,
Beduru moluor un mon maparo nodak e ngima maber; beduru mokuyo, un nyiri maparo nodak gi kwe! Lonyreuru duge kendo utwe piende gugru enungou.
12 Smiting upon the breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine;
Ywaguru ka ugoyo agogu nikech puothe momewo, nikech olembe mag mzabibu,
13 For the land of my people whereon thorns and briers come up; yea, for all the houses of joy and the joyous city.
kendo kuom piny joga, piny mopongʼ gi kuthe kod pedo, ee, ywaguru udi ma yande mor opongʼo kendo kuom dala maduongʼ mar mor gi ilo masani odongʼ nono.
14 For the palace shall be forsaken; the city with its stir shall be deserted; the mound and the tower shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;
Kama ochiel motegno nojwangʼ, dala maduongʼ nodongʼ gunda; kama ochiel motegno mag siro lweny kod kar ngʼicho nodongʼ kama punda bukore, kod kar kwadh jamni,
15 Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
nyaka chop Roho ol kuomwa koa malo, kendo piny motwo nolokre kuonde mamiyo, mi kuonde mamiyo nonenre ka bungu.
16 Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field.
Adiera nobedie e piny motwo, mi tim makare nodag e puodho mamiyo.
17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and confidence for ever.
Olemb tim makare nobed kwe; to tim makare nokel horuok gi chir nyaka chiengʼ.
18 And my people shall abide in a peaceable habitation, and in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting-places.
Joga nodag kuonde ma kwe nitie, e mier moger motegno, kendo kuonde ma kwe nitie ma koko ongee.
19 And it shall hail, in the downfall of the forest; but the city shall descend into the valley.
Kata obedo ni pe nolwer bunge kendo dala maduongʼ nopodh chuth,
20 Happy are ye that sow beside all waters, that send forth freely the feet of the ox and the ass.
to mano kaka inibed ngʼama ogwedhi, ka ichwoyo chambi e bath aore duto, kendo ka iweyo jambi kod punde magi wuotho awuotha kaka ohero.
