Isaiah 65
1 I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.
“Niĩ ndeguũrĩirie andũ arĩa mataahooyaga kĩrĩra; na andũ arĩa mataamaathaga niĩ, nĩo maanyonire. Naruo rũrĩrĩ rũrĩa rũtarĩ rwahooya rũkĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩakwa, ngĩrwĩra atĩrĩ: ‘Niĩ ũyũ haha, niĩ ũyũ haha.’
2 I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walks in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
Mũthenya wothe ndindaga ndambũrũkĩirie moko makwa kũrĩ andũ aremi, arĩa matathiiaga na mĩthiĩre mĩega, no marũmagĩrĩra mathugunda mao:
3 A people that provokes me to anger continually to my face; that sacrifices in gardens, and burns incense upon altars of brick;
o andũ arĩa matũũraga maathirĩkagia o ũthiũ-inĩ wakwa, makarutagĩra magongona mĩgũnda-inĩ, na magacinagĩra ũbumba igongona-inĩ cia maturubarĩ;
4 Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
arĩa matindaga maikarĩte mbĩrĩra-inĩ, makarara meiguĩte na hitho ũtukũ wothe; arĩa makĩrĩĩaga nyama cia ngũrwe, na nyũngũ ciao ciyũrĩte thaathi wa nyama irĩ thaahu;
5 Which say, Stand by yourself, come not near to me; for I am holier than you. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all the day.
andũ acio moigaga atĩrĩ, ‘Njeherera, tiga kũnguhĩrĩria, tondũ niĩ ndĩ mũtheru gũgũkĩra!’ Andũ ta acio mahaana ta ndogo maniũrũ-inĩ makwa, na ta mwaki wakanaga mũthenya wothe.
6 Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
“Atĩrĩrĩ, mbere yakwa gũtũire kwandĩkĩtwo maũndũ macio: ndigũtũũra ngirĩte ki, no rĩrĩ, nĩngarĩhanĩria kũna; ti-itherũ ngaarĩhanĩria o ciero-inĩ ciao,
7 Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, says the LORD, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.
ndĩhanĩrie mehia manyu inyuĩ ene, o na mehia ma maithe manyu,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Tondũ nĩmacinĩire ũbumba irĩma-igũrũ, na makĩĩnuma marĩ kũu tũrĩma-igũrũ, nĩngerĩhĩria ciero-inĩ ciao, ndĩmarĩhe irĩhi rĩothe nĩ ũndũ wa ciĩko ciao cia mbere.”
8 Thus says the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all.
Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “O ta ũrĩa ngogoyo yonekaga kĩmanjĩka-inĩ gĩa thabibũ, nao andũ makoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Tiga gũkĩananga, hahota gũkorwo na kĩndũ kĩega thĩinĩ wakĩo,’ ũguo noguo ngeeka nĩ ũndũ wa ndungata ciakwa; ndigaciniina ciothe.
9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
Ngaaruta njiaro kuuma kũrĩ Jakubu, nao agai a irĩma ciakwa moime Juda; andũ akwa arĩa niĩ ndĩthuurĩire nĩo magaacigaya, nacio ndungata ciakwa itũũre kuo.
10 And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.
Sharoni gũgaatuĩka ũrĩithio wa ndũũru cia mbũri, na Gĩtuamba-kĩa-Akori gĩtuĩke handũ ha kwarahagwo nĩ mahiũ, nĩ ũndũ wa andũ akwa arĩa matũire manjaragia.
11 But all of you are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number.
“No rĩrĩ, inyuĩ arĩa mũtiganĩirie Jehova, na mũkariganĩrwo nĩ kĩrĩma gĩakwa kĩrĩa kĩamũre, inyuĩ arĩa mwaragĩra metha ngai ya maheeni ĩrĩa ĩtagwo Mũreehi-mũnyaka, na mũkaiyũria mbakũri cia ndibei ya mũtukanio mũgaitĩra ngai ĩrĩa ĩtagwo Mũreehi-mũtino nĩguo mũmĩhoorerie-rĩ,
12 Therefore will I number you to the sword, and all of you shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, all of you did not answer; when I spoke, all of you did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.
ngaamwathĩrĩria kũũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, na inyuothe mũkegũithia thĩ mũũragwo; nĩgũkorwo ndamwĩtire mũkĩaga kũnjĩtĩka, na ndamwarĩirie mũkĩaga gũthikĩrĩria. Mwekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ makwa, na mũgĩthuura maũndũ marĩa matangenagia.”
13 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but all of you shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but all of you shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but all of you shall be ashamed:
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova Mwathani ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Ndungata ciakwa nĩikaarĩa irio, no inyuĩ nĩmũkahũũta; ndungata ciakwa nĩikaanyua, no inyuĩ nĩmũkanyoota; ndungata ciakwa nĩigakena, no inyuĩ nĩmũgaconorithio.
14 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but all of you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall wail for vexation of spirit.
O na ningĩ ndungata ciakwa nĩikaina nĩgũcanjamũka ngoro, no inyuĩ nĩmũkarĩra nĩ ũndũ wa ruo rwa ngoro, na mũgirĩke nĩ ũndũ wa gũthuthĩka ngoro.
15 And all of you shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay you, and call his servants by another name:
Marĩĩtwa manyu mũkaamatigĩra andũ akwa arĩa ndĩthuurĩire, mamatũmagĩre rĩrĩa mekwenda kũruma andũ; Mwathani Jehova nĩagakũũraga, no ndungata ciake agaaciĩtaga marĩĩtwa mangĩ.
16 That he who blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that swears in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.
Mũndũ ũrĩa wothe ũkaahoera bũrũri kĩrathimo, ageeka ũguo akĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai ũrĩa wa ma; ningĩ ũrĩa ũkeehĩta na mwĩhĩtwa bũrũri-inĩ, akeehĩta akĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai ũrĩa wa ma. Nĩgũkorwo mathĩĩna marĩa ma tene nĩmakariganĩra, na mahithwo maitho-inĩ makwa.
17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩngũmba igũrũ rĩerũ o na thĩ njerũ. Maũndũ marĩa ma tene matigacooka kũririkanwo, o na kana meciirio.
18 But be all of you glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
No rĩrĩ, canjamũkai na mũkenere indo iria ngũmba tene na tene, nĩgũkorwo nĩngũmba itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu rĩtuĩke rĩa gũkenerwo, na andũ a rĩo matuĩke a gũkenania.
19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
Nĩngakenera Jerusalemu na njanjamũke nĩ ũndũ wa andũ akwa; naguo mũgambo wa kĩgirĩko o na kana wa kĩrĩro ndũkaiguuo kũu rĩngĩ.
20 There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that has not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.
“Kũu gũtirĩ mwana wa rũkenge ũgaacooka gũkua arĩ na matukũ manini, o na kana mũndũ mũkũrũ akue atatũũrĩte mĩaka yake yothe; mũndũ ũrĩa ũgaakua arĩ na mĩaka igana akoonagwo taarĩ mũndũ mwĩthĩ; nake ũrĩa ũtagaakinyia mĩaka igana akoonagwo ta arumĩtwo na kĩrumi.
21 And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
Nao nĩmagaka nyũmba na macitũũre; makaahaanda mĩgũnda ya mĩthabibũ na marĩĩage maciaro mayo.
22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
Gũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ magaaka nyũmba ituĩke cia gũtũũrwo nĩ andũ angĩ, o na kana mahaande irio irĩĩo nĩ andũ angĩ. Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa matukũ ma mũtĩ maigana, ũguo noguo matukũ ma andũ akwa magaakorwo maigana; andũ akwa arĩa athuure magaatũũra makenagĩra wĩra wa moko mao ihinda iraaya.
23 They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.
Nao matigacooka kũruta wĩra wa tũhũ, o na kana maciare ciana ciathĩrĩirio mũtino; nĩgũkorwo magaatuĩka andũ arathime nĩ Jehova, o hamwe na njiaro ciao.
24 And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
Na nĩgũgatuĩka atĩrĩ, o mbere mataananjĩta-rĩ, nĩngamacookeria ũhoro; ningĩ o makĩaragia-rĩ, nĩngakorwo njiguĩte.
25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, says the LORD.
Nayo njũũi na kagondu ikaarĩĩaga hamwe, naguo mũrũũthi ũkarĩĩaga nyeki ta ndegwa, no rũkũngũ nĩruo rũgaatuĩka irio cia nyoka. Itikagerana ngero kana cianangane kũu guothe kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩakwa kĩamũre,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
