< Isaiah 40 >
1 “Comfort, comfort My people,” says your God.
Gode da amane sia: sa, “Na fi dunu ilia dogo denesima. Ilia dogo denesima!
2 Speak to the heart of Jerusalem, and call to her, That her warfare has been completed, That her punishment has been accepted, That she has received from the hand of YHWH Double for all her sins.
Yelusaleme fi dunu ilia dogo denesima: ne olelema! Ilia da se nabasu defele nabi dagoi amola ilia wadela: i hou da gogolema: ne olofoi dagoi, amo ilima olelema. Na da ilia wadela: i hou defele, ilima se iasu defele i dagoi.”
3 A voice is crying in a wilderness: “Prepare the way of YHWH, Make straight in a desert a highway for our God.
Wesu sia: da agoane naba, “Dilia iwila amo ganodini, Hina Gode masa: ne, logo fodoma. Hafoga: i soge amo ganodini ninia Gode da masa: ne, ahoasu noga: le moloma.
4 Every valley is raised up, And every mountain and hill become low, And the crooked place has become a plain, And the entangled places a valley.
Fago huluane nabama. Goumi huluane mugululi, umi agoane hamoma. Agolo da bu umi agoane ba: mu. Amola soge fofagoi huluane da bu fa: i dagoi agoane ba: mu.
5 And the glory of YHWH has been revealed, And all flesh have seen [it] together, For the mouth of YHWH has spoken.”
Amasea, osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu huluane da Hina Gode Ea Hadigi ba: mu. Bai Hina Gode da amo hou ilegele sia: i dagoi.”
6 A voice is saying, “Call,” And he said, “What do I call?” All flesh [is] grass, and all its goodness [Is] as a flower of the field:
Wesu sia: eno da agoane naba, “Sia: ne iasu sia: ma!” Na da amane adole ba: sa, ‘Na da adi sia: ne iasu sia: ma: bela?’ Agoane sia: ne iasu olelema. Osobo bagade fifi asi gala dunu huluane da gisi agoane amola ilia da ifa mosoi defele, hedolowane biosa.
7 Grass has withered, the flower faded, For the Spirit of YHWH blew on it, Surely the people [is] grass;
Hina Gode da fo ili fama: ne iasisia, gisi mosoi da biosa amola wadela: sa. Osobo bagade dunu da gisi mosoi biobe defele, hedolo biosa.
8 Grass has withered, the flower faded, But a word of our God rises forever.
Dafawane! Gisi mosoi da biosa amola falegai da wadela: sa. Be Gode Ea sia: da mae mugululi, dialalalumu.”
9 Get up on a high mountain, O Zion, Proclaiming tidings, Lift up your voice with power, O Jerusalem, proclaiming tidings, Lift up, do not fear, say to cities of Judah, “Behold, your God.”
Yelusaleme fi! Goumi sedade amoba: le heda: le, sia: ida: iwane gala olelema. Saione dunu! Sia: ida: iwane, ha: giwane wele sia: ma. Mae beda: iwane ha: gi wele sia: ma. Yuda moilai huluane ilia Gode da manebe, agoane ilima olelema.
10 Behold, Lord YHWH comes with strength, And His arm is ruling for Him, Behold, His hire [is] with Him, and His wage before Him.
Hina Gode Ouligisudafa da gasa bagadewane, ouligima: ne misunu. E masea, E da dunu amo Hi gaga: i, amo oule misunu.
11 He feeds His flock as a shepherd, He gathers lambs with His arm, And He carries [them] in His bosom: He leads suckling ones.
E da sibi ouligisu defele, Ea sibi fi ouligimu. E da sibi mano gagadole, ea lobo ganodini ouga: ne, gaguli masunu. Amola ilia amelali, E da asabole oule masunu.
12 Who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand, And has meted out the heavens by a span, And comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, And has weighed the mountains in scales, And the hills in a balance?
Dunu afae da hano wayabo bagade amo ea loboga gaguli, ea defei dawa: ma: bela: ? O mu amo ea sedade defei ea loboga defema: bela: ? Dunu afae da faigelei ganodini, osobo bagade ea su salima: bela: ? O dioi defei ba: su amoga goumi amola agolo ilia dioi defei amo ba: ma: bela: ?
13 Who has meted out the Spirit of YHWH, And [being] His counselor, teaches Him?
Dunu afae da Hina Godema agoane hamoma: ia olelemusa: dawa: bela: ? Nowa da Ema olelemusa: dawa: bela: o Ema fada: i sia: musa: dawa: bela: ?
14 With whom [did] He consult, That he causes Him to understand? And teaches Him in the path of judgment, And teaches Him knowledge? And causes Him to know the way of understanding?
Gode da dawa: lamusa: amola hawa: hamosu hamomusa: , E da nowama adole ba: sala: ?
15 Behold, nations [are] as a drop from a bucket, And have been reckoned as small dust of the balance, Behold, He takes up islands as a small thing.
Hina Gode Ea siga ba: sea da fifi asi gala huluane da hamedei liligi hano afae dadibi defele ba: sa. Ilia da oga sedagaga diala, osobo su hagiwane defele ba: sa.
16 And Lebanon is not sufficient to burn, Nor its beasts sufficient for a burnt-offering.
Ohe fi huluane Lebanone iwila ganodini esala da Godema gobele salasu hamoma: ne defele hame ba: sa. Amola Lebanone ifa huluane da amo gobele salasu hamoma: ne, lalu didimusa: habemu defele hame ba: sa.
17 All the nations [are] as nothing before Him, Less than nothing and emptiness, They have been reckoned to Him.
Fifi asi gala huluane da Ema hamedei liligi.
18 And to whom do you liken God, And what likeness do you compare to Him?
Ninia Gode da nowama defele sia: ma: bela: ? Dilia da Ea hou habodane olelema: bela: ?
19 An artisan has poured out the carved image, And a refiner spreads it over with gold, And he is refining chains of silver.
E da ‘gode’ amo hawa: hamosu dunu da ilia loboga hamosa, amo ouli hawa: hamosu dunu ilia da gouliga dedebosa amola silifa bai amoga legesa, Gode da agoaiwane liligi hame!
20 He who is poor [by] raised-offerings, Chooses a tree [that is] not rotten, He seeks a skillful artisan for it, To establish a carved image—not moved.
Dunu da silifa amola gouli bidi lamu amo da hamedei ba: sea, e da ifa hame dasamu liligi lasa. E da bagade dawa: su hawa: hamosu dunu hogoi helesea, amo dunu ‘gode’ hame dafamu liligi ea loboga hamoma: ne sia: sa.
21 Do you not know—do you not hear? Has it not been declared from the first to you? Have you not understood [From] the foundations of the earth?
Dilia da hame dawa: bela: ? Ilia da hemonega dilima hame olelebela: ? Dilia da osobo bagade ea muni hemosu amo hame nabibala: ?
22 He who is sitting on the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants [are] as grasshoppers, He who is stretching out the heavens as a thin thing, And spreads them as a tent to dwell in.
Dunu amo Ea Fisu da osobo bagade amola mu amoga gadodili diala, amo da: iya fibi Dunu da osobo bagade hahamoi dagoi. Hagudu osobo bagade dunu da fonobahadi gedama agoane ba: sa. Gode da mu amo abula agoane fadegale moloi. Amola dunu esalebe abula diasu agoane hamoi dagoi.
23 He who is making princes become nothing, Has made judges of earth formless;
E da gasa bagade ouligisu dunu amo hedofale, ilia hamedei liligi agoai ba: ma: ne hamosa.
24 Indeed, they have not been planted, Indeed, they have not been sown, Indeed, their stock is not taking root in the earth, And He has also blown on them, and they wither, And a whirlwind takes them away as stubble.
Ilia da bugi liligi sono, difi hame sa: i agoai ba: sa. Amasea, Hina Gode da fo iasisia, ilia da biole, bioi gisi agoai foga mini asi dagoi ba: sa.
25 And to whom do you liken Me, And [to whom] I equal? Says the Holy One.
Hadigi Gode da nowama defema: bela: ? Dunu eno da E defele esalabala? Hame mabu!
26 Lift up your eyes on high, And see—who has created these? He who is bringing out their host by number, He calls to all of them by name, By the abundance of His strength And mighty power, Not one is lacking.
Muagado ba: ma! Gasumuni dilia da ba: sa! Nowa da amo hahamobela: ? Fedege agoane, E da gasumuni dadi gagui gilisisu defele, ilima bisili, oule ahoa. E da ilia idi dawa: , amola E da ilia dio afae afae amoga ilima wele sia: sa. Ea gasa da bagadedafa. Gasumuni afae da fisi dagoi hamedafa ba: sa.
27 Why say, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, “My way has been hid from YHWH, And from my God my judgment passes over?”
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili fi dunu, dilia abuliba: le egasala: ? Dilia abuliba: le, Hina Gode da dilia bidi hamosu hame dawa: , amola dilima moloi hame hamosu hou amoma E da hame asigisa, dilia abuliba: le egane sia: sala: ?
28 Have you not known? Have you not heard? The God of the age—YHWH, Preparer of the ends of the earth, Is not wearied nor fatigued, There is no searching of His understanding.
Dilia hame dawa: bela: ? Dilia hame nabibala: ? Hina Gode da eso huluane Esalalalusu Godedafa. E da osobo bagade hahamoi dagoi. E da helesu hame dawa: Dunu afae da Ea asigi dawa: su dawa: mu da hamedei.
29 He is giving power to the weary, And to those not strong He increases might.
E da nowa da gasa hame amola helebe, ilima gasa iaha.
30 Even youths are wearied and fatigued, And young men utterly stumble,
Dunu huluane amola da: i hame hamoi dunu da helebeba: le, gasa hame laha. Ayeligi dunu da helebeba: le, dafasu dawa:
31 But those expecting YHWH pass [to] power, They raise up the pinion as eagles, They run and are not fatigued, They go on and do not faint!
Be nowa da Hina Gode Ea fidima: ne dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le aligisia, da ilia gasa bu gaheabolo hamoi dagoi ba: mu. Ilia da buhiba ea ougia hagili ahoabe defele wa: le masunu. Ilia da hehenabeba: le, hame helemu. Ilia da ahoasea, gasa hame hou hame dawa: mu.
