Isaiah 16
1 Send ye the lambs of the ruler of the land from Sela', through the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
Kawuru rombe koa Sela kungʼadogo thim mondo uterne ruodh piny, modak e got mar Nyar Sayun kaka gir chiwo.
2 For it shall be, that, as a fugitive bird, as a chased nest, so shall be the daughters of Moab at the fords of Arnon.
Mana kaka nyithind winy moketh odgi mafuyo koni gi koni, e kaka mond jo-Moab nodongʼ e kar otuodo manie Aora Arnon.
3 Bring counsel, execute justice; render like the night thy shadow in the midst of the noonday; conceal the outcasts; betray not the fugitive.
“Ngʼadnwauru rieko, nyiswa gima onego watim. Pandwauru mondo kik yudwa kendo panduru jowa moringo lweny, kendo kik uyie mondo omaki joma oseringo.
4 Let my outcasts sojourn with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the waster: till ceaseth the extortion, past be the wasting, and vanished be the oppressor out of the land.
We jo-Moab moringo lweny odag kodu kendo bednegi ragengʼ kuom jakethgi.” Ngʼatno masandogi tekone norum, kendo kethruok notieki; mi jathir ji nolal nono e piny.
5 And there shall be founded through kindness a throne; and there shall sit upon it in truthfulness in the tent of David a judge who seeketh justice, and is quick in righteousness.
Kuom hera, loch nogur; kuom adiera ngʼato nobedie lojno, ngʼatno nowuogi e od Daudi, ma en ngʼat mangʼado bura kare, kendo ojiwo timbe mag adieri.
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab; [that] he is very proud: of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath, his groundless lies.
Wasewinjo sunga mar Moab, kaka otingʼore malo gi wuondruok, kopongʼ gi sunga kod achaya, to dhialruokneno en kayiem nono.
7 Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, every one shall wail; for the strong walls of Kir-charesseth shall ye lament, deeply stricken.
Kuom mano jo-Moab dengo, gidengo kaachiel nikech Moab. Ywaguru kendo ubed gi lit nikech jo-Kir Hareseth.
8 For the fields of Cheshbon are withered, the vine of Sibmah —the lords of nations have beaten down its branches, they did reach as far as Ya'zer, into the wilderness did they wander; its tendrils were stretched forth, they passed over the sea.
Puothe mag Heshbon ner, kaachiel gi mzabibu mag Sibma. Jotelo mag ogendini oseketho divai mane berie moloyo, mane ndalo moro ochopo nyaka Jazer, kendo olandore nyaka kar ongoro. Bedene nolawore malach mochopo nyaka nam.
9 Therefore will I weep, when weeping for Ya'zer, for the vine of Sibmah: I will moisten thee richly with my tears, O Cheshbon, and El'aleh; for over [the gathering of] thy summer fruits and over thy harvest the battle-cry is fallen.
Omiyo aywak mana kaka Jazer ywak nikech mzabibu mag Sibma. Yaye Heshbon, yaye Eleale, analuoku gi pi wangʼ. Mor ma un-go nikech olembeu mosechiek kendo nikech keyo maru osetieki.
10 And [thus] are taken away joy and gladness out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards shall be no singing, shall be no joyful shout: in the presses shall the treader not tread out wine; I have stopped the harvest-call.
Mor kod ilo norum chuth e puotheu mag olemo kendo onge wer mano wer kata koko manogo e puotheu mag mzabibu; bende onge ngʼato angʼata manochak obi mzabibu e kuonde mag bicho, nimar asetieko mahu mar mor ma un-go.
11 Therefore my bowels shall groan for Moab like a harp, and my inward parts for Kir-charess.
Chunya ywago Moab mana kaywak mar nyatiti, kendo chunya ma iye ywago Kir Hareseth.
12 And it shall come to pass, that it shall be seen that Moab is weary on the high-places; and he will come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not accomplish [aught].
Ka Moab ochopo kuonde hembko mag misengini, to ochandore achanda nono; to kata ka odonjo e kare mar lemo, to en mana kayiem nono.
13 This is the word that the Lord hath spoken concerning Moab in former times.
Ma e wach ma Jehova Nyasaye nosewacho kuom Moab.
14 But now hath the Lord spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of a hired laborer, shall the glory of Moab be rendered mean with all this [his] great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and inconsiderable.
To sani Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya: Kapok okadho higni adek, mana kaka ja-otongʼo tiyo kaparo hignige adek ma tije rumogo e kaka duongʼ mar Moab kaachiel gi joge mangʼeny duto none achaya, bende joge ma notony nobed manok kendo mayom yom.
