Isaiah 48
1 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the spring of Judah, who swear by the name of the Lord, and make mention of the God of Israel, —not in truth, nor in righteousness.
Isala: ili fi dunu! Yuda egaga fi dunu! Nabima! Dilia da Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le sia: sa, amola dilia Isala: ili Gode Ema nodone sia: ne gadosa sia: sa. Be dilia sia: dafawaneyale hame sia: sa.
2 For of the holy city they call themselves, and upon the God of Israel they stay themselves, —The Lord of hosts is his name.
Be dilia gasa fili, dilia da Hadigi moilai bai bagade amo ea esalebe dunu, amola dilia da Isala: ili Gode (Ea Dio da Hina Gode Bagadedafa) amo dili fidima: ne dafawaneyale dawa: , amane sia: sa.
3 The former things have I declared from the beginning; and out of my mouth went they forth, and I announced them: suddenly did I accomplish them, and they came to pass;
Hina Gode da Isala: ili fi ilima amane sia: sa, “Na da musa: hemonega hobea misunu hou ba: la: lu, dilima sia: i dagoi. Amalalu, hedolodafa amo hou dafawane ba: ma: ne, Na da hamoi dagoi.
4 Because I knew that thou art obstinate, that like an iron sinew is thy neck, and thy brow of copper;
Dilia da hame nabasu hou, amola gasa fi hou hamomu, amo Na dawa: i galu. Dilia da ouli agoane selefamu hamedei, amola balase defele ga: nasi bagade hamomu, Na da dawa: i galu.
5 And I declared it to thee from the beginning; before yet it came to pass did I let thee hear it: lest thou should say, My idol hath done these things, and my graven image, and my molten image, have ordained them.
Amaiba: le, Na da dilima hobea misunu hou amo hemonega ba: beba: le, sia: i dagoi. Dilia da dilia loboga hamoi ‘gode’ da dilia hou hahamoi dagoi, amo dilia da sia: sa: besa: le, Na da amo hou da hobea misunu, hemonega sia: i dagoi.
6 Thou hast heard it; see it all now; and you—will you not declare it? I caused thee to hear new things, from this time, even hidden things which thou hadst not known.
Be wali Na ba: la: lusu sia: i liligi huluane da hamoi dagoi ba: sa. Amola amo ba: la: lusu liligi da dafawane, dilia da wali sia: sa. Wali Na da gaheabolo hou, Na da musa: wamolegei amo hobea misunu, Na da dilima olelemu.
7 Now are they created, and not from the beginning; and before the day [that I announced them] thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
Na da wali hamonanebeba: le, amo hou da doaga: i. Agoanewane hou da musa: hamedafa ba: i. Amo hou da musa: ba: i ganiaba, dilia da amo hou huluane dawa: dagoi, dilia da sia: na: noba.
8 But neither hadst thou heard it; nor didst thou know; nor had in ancient times thy ear been opened; for I knew that thou wouldst deal very treacherously, and a transgressor wast thou called from thy birth.
Be dilia hou da moloi hame, Na dawa: i galu. Dilia da eso huluane seselesu dunu agoane esala, dunu huluane da dawa: Amaiba: le, dilia da Na hobea hamomu hou hamedafa nabi.
9 For the sake of my name will I defer my anger, and because of my praise will I restrain it toward thee, so that I may not cut thee off.
Dunu da Na Dio amoma nodoma: ne, Na da Na ougi dili mae wadela: lesima: ne gagusa. Na da dili hame gugunufinisimu.
10 Behold, I have refined thee, though not into silver: I have approved thee in the crucible of affliction.
Na da se nabasu hou lalu agoane amo ganodini, silifa ea hou adoba: su agoane, dilia hou adoba: su. Be dilia da hamedei dunu, amo Na da ba: i dagoi.
11 For my own sake will I do it: for how would [my name] be dishonored? and my glory will I not give unto another.
Be amo hou Na da Na Dio gaguia gadoma: ne fawane hamoi. Na Dio wadela: lesima: ne, Na da hamedafa ba: mu. Amola eno dunu da Na Hadigi gilisili lamusa: , Na da logo hamedafa doasimu. Na Hadigi da Na Nisu fawane gagusa.”
12 Hearken unto me, O Jacob, and Israel, my called one; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili fi dunu, Na da dili Nama misa: ne wele sia: nanu, ilegei dagoi. Na sia: nabima! Na da Gode amo Hemosu amola Dagosu, eno hame, Na da Godedafa.
13 My hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned out the heavens: I call unto them, they stand forward together.
Na da osobo bagade ea bai amola mu amo Na loboga hamoi. Na da osobo bagade amola mu Nama misa: ne sia: sea, ilia da hedolo Nama misini gousa: sa.
14 Assemble yourselves, all of you, and hear: Who among them hath told these things? He whom the Lord loveth, will do his pleasure on Babylon, and [display] his arm [on] the Chaldeans.
Dilia huluane gilisima amola nabima! Na ilegei dunu da Na hanai defele Ba: bilone doagala: mu. Eno ‘gode’ liligi afae da amo hou ba: la: lumu hamedei.
15 I, even I, have spoken it, I have also called him: I have brought him, and he shall be prosperous on his way.
Na fawane da ema sia: i, amola ema misa: ne sia: i. Na da e gadili masa: ne oule asi, amola e didili hamoma: ne, Na fawane da ea logo fodoi.
16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; never from the beginning have I spoken in secret; from the time that it occurred, was I there. And now the Lord Eternal hath sent me, and his Spirit.
Wali, Nama gadenena misa, amola Na sia: nabima. Hemonega amola fa: no Na da mae wamolegele, sia: moloidafa sia: i. Amola Na sia: sia: i da Na hamobeba: le, dafawane hamoi ba: i.” (Wali Hina bagade Gode Ouligisudafa da Ea gasa nama ianu, na asunasi dagoi.)
17 Thus hath said the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, I am the Lord thy God who teach thee for thy profit, who lead thee by the way thou shouldst go.
Isala: ili Hadigi Gode, dilia Gaga: su, da amane sia: sa, “Na da Hina Gode, dilia Gode! Na da dilia hou noga: ma: ne dilima olelesa amola dilia noga: le masa: ne logo olelesa.
18 Oh that thou hadst but listened to my commandments! then would have been as a river thy peace, and thy prosperity as the waves of the sea:
Dilia da na sia: noga: le nabi ganiaba, dilima hahawane hou hano da hafoga: su hame dawa: , amo defele dilima doaga: la: loba. Amola hasalasu hou hano wayabo bagade gafului da hano bega: doaga: sa, amo defele dilima doaga: la: loba.
19 And then would have been as the sand thy seed, and the offspring of thy body like the pebbles of the sea-shore; yet shall his name not be cut off nor destroyed from before me.
Amola dilia agoane hamoi ganiaba, diligaga fi ilia idi da sa: iboso ea idi defele ba: la: loba amola ilia hamedafa gugunufinisimu Na da hamonana: noba.”
20 Go forth out of Babylon, flee away from the Chaldeans, with the voice of singing declare, announce this, carry it forth as far as the end of the earth; say, The Lord hath redeemed his servant Jacob.
Dilia! Ba: bilone soge fisili, hahawane gadili masa. Amo sia: hahawane wele sia: ma. Dunu huluane nabima: ne, hahawane agoane sia: mu, “Hina Gode da Ea hawa: hamosu dunu fi Isala: ili, amo gaga: i dagoi.”
21 And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts; waters out of the rock he let drop down for them: and he cleaved the rock, and the waters gushed out.
Hina Gode da Ea fi dunu amo gia: i bagade hafoga: i soge amo ganodini oule ahoanoba, ilia da hano hanai hame ba: i. Ea hamobeba: le, hano da igi amoga yogosa: i. E da igi oudahida: le, hano da amo ganodini misi.
22 There is no peace, saith the Lord, unto the wicked.
Wadela: i hamosu dunu da gaga: su hame ba: mu,” Hina Gode da amane sia: sa.
