Isaiah 14
1 For YHWH loves Jacob, And has fixed again on Israel, And given them rest on their own land, And the sojourner has been joined to them, And they have been admitted to the house of Jacob.
No rĩrĩ, Jehova nĩakaiguĩra Jakubu tha; nĩegwĩthuurĩra Isiraeli o rĩngĩ, na atũme maikare bũrũri wao ene. Ageni nĩmakegwatania nao, na manyiitane na nyũmba ya Jakubu.
2 And peoples have taken them, And have brought them to their place, And the house of Israel has inherited them, On the land of YHWH, For menservants and for maidservants, And they have been captors of their captors, And have ruled over their exactors.
Ndũrĩrĩ nĩikamooya, imacookie kũndũ kwao. Nayo nyũmba ya Isiraeli nĩĩkegwatĩra ndũrĩrĩ, ituĩke ndungata ciao cia arũme na cia airĩtu kũu bũrũri wa Jehova. Nĩmagataha andũ arĩa maamatahĩte tene, na macooke gwatha andũ arĩa maamahinyagĩrĩria.
3 And it has come to pass, In the day of YHWH’s giving rest to you, From your grief, and from your trouble, And from the sharp bondage, That has been served on you,
Mũthenya ũrĩa Jehova akaamũhurũkia kuuma mathĩĩna-inĩ na mĩnyamaro-inĩ, na ũkombo-inĩ wa kũhinyĩrĩrio-rĩ,
4 That you have taken up this allegory Concerning the king of Babylon, and said, “How the exactor has ceased,
nĩmũgookĩrĩra mũthamaki wa Babuloni na kĩnyũrũri, mũmwĩre atĩrĩ: Kaĩ mũhinyanĩrĩria nĩakinyĩte mũthia-ĩ! Kaĩ marakara make mahiũ nĩmathirĩte-ĩ!
5 The golden one has ceased. YHWH has broken the staff of the wicked, The scepter of rulers.
Jehova nĩoinangĩte rũthanju rwa andũ arĩa aaganu, o na akoinanga thimbũ ya ũnene ya arĩa maathanaga,
6 He who is striking peoples in wrath, A striking without intermission, He who is ruling nations in anger, Pursuing without restraint!
ĩrĩa maahũũraga andũ nayo mategũtigithĩria, marakarĩte, magaatha ndũrĩrĩ marĩ na marakara, na magaciũgitaga matarĩ na tha.
7 At rest—all the earth has been quiet, They have broken forth [into] singing.
Mabũrũri mothe rĩu nĩmahurũkĩte na marĩ na thayũ; nĩmambĩrĩirie kũina.
8 Even firs have rejoiced over you, Cedars of Lebanon, [saying], Since you have lain down, The hewer does not come up against us.
O nayo mĩtĩ ya mĩkarakaba na mĩtarakwa ya Lebanoni ĩragũkenerera, ĩkoiga atĩrĩ: “Kuuma hĩndĩ ĩrĩa wagũithirio thĩ, gũtirĩ mũtemi mĩtĩ ũrĩ woka gũtũtema.”
9 Sheol beneath has been troubled at you, To meet your coming in, It is waking up Rephaim for you, All chief ones of earth, It has raised up from their thrones All kings of nations. (Sheol h7585)
Mbĩrĩra kũu mũhuro wa thĩ nĩyarahũkĩte, ĩgũtũnge ũgĩkinya kuo; nĩyarahũrĩte maroho ma arĩa maanakua makũgeithie: arĩa othe maarĩ atongoria gũkũ thĩ; ĩtũmaga mookĩrĩrie itĩ ciao cia ũnene, o arĩa othe maarĩ athamaki a ndũrĩrĩ. (Sheol h7585)
10 All of them answer and say to you, Even you have become weak like us! You have become like to us!
Nao othe magaacookia, makwĩre atĩrĩ, “O nawe nĩwagĩte hinya o ta ithuĩ; ũhaanĩte o ta ithuĩ.”
11 Your excellence has been brought down to Sheol, The noise of your stringed instruments, The worm has been spread out under you, Indeed, the worm is covering you. (Sheol h7585)
Riiri wothe wa ũnene waku ũikũrũkĩtio o nginya mbĩrĩra-inĩ, hamwe na mĩgambo ya inanda ciaku cia mũgeeto; igunyũ nĩcio ũkomeire, na igunyũ nocio ikũhumbĩire. (Sheol h7585)
12 How you have fallen from the heavens, O shining one, son of the dawn! You have been cut down to earth, O weakener of nations.
Hĩ! Kaĩ wee njata ya kĩwariĩ nĩũgwĩte ũkoima igũrũ-ĩ, o wee mũrũ wa rũciinĩ kĩroko gwakĩa! Ũharũrũkĩtio ũgaikio gũkũ thĩ, o wee ũrĩa hĩndĩ ĩmwe wahinyagĩrĩria ndũrĩrĩ!
13 And you said in your heart: I go up into the heavens, I raise my throne above the stars of God, And I sit on the mountain of meeting in the sides of the north.
Wee weĩraga atĩrĩ na ngoro yaku, “Ngũhaica nginye igũrũ; na gĩtĩ gĩakwa kĩa ũnene ndĩkĩambararie gĩkĩre njata cia Mũrungu; na njikarĩre kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa gũtũnganwo, o gacũmbĩrĩ ga kĩrĩma kĩrĩa kĩamũre.
14 I go up above the heights of a thick cloud, I am like to the Most High.
Nĩngahaica nginya kũndũ kũraihu igũrũ rĩa matu, ndĩĩhaananie na Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno.”
No rĩrĩ, wee ũharũrũkĩtio thĩ nginya mbĩrĩra-inĩ, ũgakinya irima kũrĩa kũriku. (Sheol h7585)
16 Your beholders look to you, they attend to you, Is this the man causing the earth to tremble, Shaking kingdoms?
Arĩa marĩkuonaga, marĩgũkũũragĩra maitho, magecũũrania ũhoro waku, makoorania atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩwe mũndũ ũrĩa wenyenyagia thĩ na agatũma mothamaki mainaine,
17 He has made the world as a wilderness, And he has broken down his cities, He did not open the house of his bound ones.
mũndũ ũrĩa watũmire thĩ ĩtuĩke ta werũ, na akangʼaũrania matũũra mayo marĩa manene? Nĩwe ũrĩa ũtetĩkagĩria andũ arĩa oohe mainũke kwao mĩciĩ?”
18 All kings of nations—all of them, Have lain down in glory, each in his house,
Athamaki othe a ndũrĩrĩ makuĩte magakomio, o mũndũ mbĩrĩra-inĩ yake.
19 And you have been cast out of your grave, As an abominable branch, raiment of the slain, Thrust through ones of the sword, Going down to the sons of the pit, As a carcass trodden down.
No wee-rĩ, nĩgũteo ũtetwo kuuma mbĩrĩra-inĩ yaku, o ta rũhonge rũrĩ magigi; ũkahumbĩrwo nĩ ciimba cia arĩa moragĩtwo, arĩa matheecangĩtwo na hiũ cia njora, o acio maikĩtio irima rĩrĩ mahiga. Ũikarĩte ta kĩimba kĩrangĩrĩrie thĩ na magũrũ,
20 You are not united with them in burial, For you have destroyed your land, You have slain your people, The seed of evildoers is not named for all time.
no wee-rĩ, ndũgaathikwo tao, tondũ nĩwaanangire bũrũri waku, na ũkĩũraga andũ aku. Rũciaro rwa andũ arĩa aaganu rũtikaagwetwo rĩngĩ.
21 Prepare slaughter for his sons; Because of the iniquity of their fathers, They do not rise, nor have possessed the land, Nor filled the face of the world [with] cities.
Haarĩriai handũ ha kũũragĩra ciana ciake, nĩ ũndũ wa mehia ma maithe mao ma tene; nĩguo itikanarahũke ciĩgaĩre bũrũri, na ciĩyakĩre matũũra maiyũre thĩ.
22 And I have risen up against them,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts, “And have cut off, in reference to Babylon, Name and remnant, and continuator and successor,” A declaration of YHWH.
Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ nĩngarahũka ndĩciũkĩrĩre, nĩngeheria rĩĩtwa rĩacio kũu Babuloni, o na rĩa matigari ma cio, o na njeherie ciana ciao na rũciaro rwao,” nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
23 “And have made it for a possession of a hedgehog, And ponds of waters, And swept it with the broom of destruction,” A declaration of YHWH of Hosts!
“Nĩngatua kũndũ kũu gĩikaro kĩa ndundu, na ndĩgũtue bũrũri wa maria ma maaĩ; ngaakũhaata na kĩhato kĩa mwanangĩko,”
24 YHWH of Hosts has sworn, saying, “As I thought—so has it not been? And as I counseled—it stands;
Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩehĩtĩte, akoiga atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ, o ũrĩa thugundĩte, ũguo noguo gũgaatuĩka, na ũrĩa nduĩte, ũguo noguo gũgaikara.
25 To break Asshur in My land, And I tread him down on My mountain, And his yoke has turned from off them, Indeed, his burden turns aside from off their shoulder.
Nĩngahehenja Mũashuri ũcio ũrĩ bũrũri-inĩ wakwa; ngaamũrangĩrĩria thĩ irĩma-inĩ ciakwa. Nĩngehereria andũ akwa icooki rĩake, na mũrigo wake ũmoime ciande-inĩ ciao.”
26 This [is] the counsel that is counseled for all the earth, And this [is] the hand that is stretched out for all the nations.
Ũũ nĩguo thugundĩte gwĩka thĩ yothe; nakuo guoko kũrĩa gũtambũrũkĩirio ndũrĩrĩ ciothe nĩkuo gũkũ.
27 For YHWH of Hosts has purposed, And who makes void? And His hand that is stretched out, Who turns it back?”
Nĩgũkorwo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩguo atuĩte gwĩka, nũũ ũngĩhota kũmũgirĩrĩria? Guoko gwake nĩgũtambũrũkĩtio, nũũ ũngĩhota gũgũthuna?
28 In the year of the death of King Ahaz was this burden:
Atĩrĩrĩ, mwaka ũrĩa Mũthamaki Ahazu aakuire-rĩ, nĩguo ndũmĩrĩri ĩno yaguũranĩirio:
29 “Do not rejoice, Philistia, all of you, That the rod of your striker has been broken, For from the root of a serpent comes out a viper, And its fruit [is] a flying, burning serpent.
Inyuĩ Afilisti inyuothe tigai gũkena, nĩ atĩ rũthanju rũrĩa rwamũhũũraga nĩrunĩkĩte; nĩgũkorwo kuuma mũri-inĩ wa nyoka ĩyo nĩgũkoima nduĩra, namo maciaro mayo magaatuĩka mũthemba wa nyoka ĩrĩ thumu ĩrĩa ĩticũkaga.
30 And the firstborn of the poor have delighted, And the needy lie down in confidence, And I have put to death your root with famine, And it slays your remnant.
Nao andũ arĩa athĩĩni biũ nĩmakona gĩa kũrĩa, na mũbatari akomage atarĩ na ũgwati. No rũciaro rwaku nĩngarũũraga na ngʼaragu; nayo ĩkooraga matigari maku.
31 Howl, O gate; cry, O city, You are melted, Philistia, all of you, For smoke has come from the north, And there is none alone in his set places.”
Wee kĩhingo-rĩ, girĩka! Na wee itũũra inene-rĩ, ugĩrĩria! Na inyuĩ Afilisti inyuothe mũniinwo nĩ guoya, mũthire biũ! Itu rĩa ndogo rĩrooka riumĩte mwena wa gathigathini, na gũtigakorwo na mũndũ ũgaatigwo na thuutha mbũtũ-inĩ ciake nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga hinya.
32 And what does one answer the messengers of a nation? That YHWH has founded Zion, And the poor of His people take refuge in it!
Nĩ icookio rĩrĩkũ rĩkaaheanwo kũrĩ andũ arĩa matũmĩtwo a rũrĩrĩ rũu? Magaacookerio atĩrĩ, “Jehova nĩahaandĩte Zayuni, na thĩinĩ wakuo andũ ake arĩa anyamaarĩku nĩmakona rĩũrĩro.”
