< Isaiah 11 >

1 AND there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:
Ome ga-epupụta site nʼogwe osisi Jesi; otu Alaka ga-esitekwa na mgbọrọgwụ ya tolite ga-amịkwa mkpụrụ.
2 And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;
Mmụọ Onyenwe anyị ga-enwekwa ọnọdụ nʼime ya, inye ya Mmụọ amamihe na Mmụọ nghọta, Mmụọ ndụmọdụ na ike, Mmụọ ihe ọmụma na nke ịtụ egwu Onyenwe anyị.
3 And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:
Ihe ga-amasị ya bụ egwu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ gaghị ekpe ikpe site naanị nʼihe o ji anya ya abụọ hụ, maọbụ gbubie ikpe site naanị nʼihe ọ nụrụ na ntị ya.
4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
Kama ọ bụ ezi omume ka ọ ga-eji kpee ndị ogbenye ikpe; ọ bụkwa ikpe ziri ezi ka ọ ga-ekpere ndị na-adịghị ike nke ụwa. Okwu ọnụ ka ọ ga-eji nye ndị mmadụ ahụhụ, ọ bụ okwu ọnụ ka ọ ga-eji maa ndị ajọ omume ikpe ọnwụ.
5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
Ezi omume ya ga-adị ka ihe ike nʼume, ma ikwesi ntụkwasị obi ga-abụ ihe okike ukwu ya.
6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.
Nʼụbọchị ahụ, nkịta ọhịa na nwa atụrụ ga-ebikọ nʼudo; agụ na nwa ewu ga-amakpukọkwa. Nwa ehi na ụmụ ọdụm na nwa ịnyịnya mara abụba ga-anọkọtakwa, ọ bụkwa nwantakịrị ga na-edugharị ha.
7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
Nne ehi na anụ ọhịa bịa ga-atakọkwa ahịhịa nʼotu ebe, ụmụ ha ga-amakpukọkwa nʼudo nʼotu ebe. Ọdụm ga-atakwa ahịhịa dịka ehi.
8 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice’ den.
Ụmụntakịrị ga-egwugharị egwu nʼakụkụ ọnụ ajụala; nwantakịrị ga-etinyekwa aka nʼakwụ ibi.
9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.
Ha agaghị eme ihe mmerụ maọbụ bibikwa ihe, nʼelu ugwu nsọ m niile. Nʼihi na ụwa niile ga-ejupụta na ihe ọmụma nke Onyenwe anyị dịka mmiri si ekpuchi oke osimiri.
10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.
Nʼụbọchị ahụ, mgbọrọgwụ Jesi ga-eguzo ka ọkọlọtọ nye ndị dị iche iche. Mba niile ga-abịakwute ya; ebe izuike ya ga-ejupụtakwa nʼebube.
11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
Nʼụbọchị ahụ, Onyenwe anyị ga-esetikwa aka nke ugboro abụọ inwetaghachiri onwe ya ndị ya fọdụrụ site na Asịrịa, sitekwa na ndịda Ijipt, sitekwa na Mgbago Ijipt, sitekwa na Kush, sitekwa na Elam, sitekwa na Babilọn, bụ Shaịna, sitekwa na Hamat na obodo niile dị nʼala niile osimiri gbara gburugburu.
12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
Ọ ga-ebuliri mba niile ọkọlọtọ ọ ga-akpọghachite ụmụ Izrel achụpụrụ achụpụ, ọ ga-esite na nsọtụ anọ nke ụwa kpokọta ndị Juda niile site nʼebe a chụsasịrị ha.
13 The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim.
Ekworo Ifrem ga-akwụsị, a ga-ebipụ ndị iro Juda. Nʼikpeazụ, ekworo ahụ nke dị nʼetiti Izrel na Juda ga-akwụsị; ha agaghị alụsokwa onwe ha ọgụ ọzọ.
14 But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them.
Ha ga-ejikọta aka ha buso ndị Filistia nọ nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ ala ha agha; ha ga-ebusokwa ndị bichiri nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ ala ahụ agha. Ha ga-emeri ndị Edọm na Moab. Ndị Amọn ga-erubekwara ha isi.
15 And the Lord shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod.
Onyenwe anyị ga-eme ka warawara ọnụ osimiri Ijipt taa. Ọ ga-eji ifufe siri ike, nke na-ekpo ọkụ mikọrọ mmiri dị nʼosimiri Yufretis. Ọ ga-ekewa ya ka ọ bụrụ isi iyi asaa, nke mmadụ nwere ike iji ụkwụ gafee.
16 And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt.
Ọ ga-esite nʼAsịrịa kpawaa ụzọ nʼihi ndị ya fọdụrụ nʼebe ahụ, dịka o si meere ndị Izrel nʼoge gara aga, mgbe ha si nʼIjipt na-alọta.
