Isaiah 59
1 Behold, the hand of YHWH Has not been shortened from saving, Nor His ear heavy from hearing.
Adiera bad Jehova Nyasaye ok chiek ma ok dores joge, bende ite ok odino ma ok dowinj wach.
2 But your iniquities have been separating Between you and your God, And your sins have hidden The Presence from you—from hearing.
To richou ema osepogou gi Nyasachu; richou ema omiyo osepandonu wangʼe mondo kik owinju.
3 For your hands have been defiled with blood, And your fingers with iniquity, Your lips have spoken falsehood, Your tongue mutters perverseness.
Nimar lwetu otimo remo, kendo usemulo richo. Dhou osewacho miriambo kendo leu osehulo gik mamono.
4 There is none calling in righteousness, And there is none pleading in faithfulness, Trusting on emptiness, and speaking falsehood, Conceiving perverseness, and bearing iniquity.
Onge ngʼama dwaro tim makare; kata manyo bura miyalo gadiera. Gigeno mana kuom weche manono kendo giwacho miriambo, gimako ich mar chandruok kendo ginywolo mana richo.
5 They have hatched eggs of a viper, And weave webs of a spider, Whoever is eating their eggs dies, and the crushed hatches a viper.
Gibutno e tong thuonde, kendo gichweyo mbuyi mar otiengʼ-otiengʼ. Ngʼato angʼata mochamo tongʼ-gi biro tho kendo kamoro oto to nyathi fu ema wuokie.
6 Their webs do not become a garment, Nor do they cover themselves with their works, Their works [are] works of iniquity, And a deed of violence [is] in their hands.
Mbui margi ok nyal twangʼ-go nanga, bende ok ginyal umore giwegi gi gik ma giloso. Timbegi gin timbe richo; kendo timbe mag mahundu ni e lwetgi.
7 Their feet run to evil, And they hurry to shed innocent blood, Their thoughts [are] thoughts of iniquity, Spoiling and destruction [are] in their highways.
Tiendegi reto kadhi timo richo; giyot ahinya mondo gichwer remo maonge ketho. Paro manie chunygi gin paro maricho kendo kamoro amora ma gidhiyoe; masira gi chandruok ema dongʼie.
8 They have not known a way of peace, And there is no judgment in their paths, They have made their paths perverse for themselves, None treading in it has known peace.
Ok gingʼeyo yo makelo kwe, onge tim makare e yoregi. Giseloko yorego obedo yore mogondore ogondore, kendo ngʼato angʼata mawuotho e yorego ok noyud kwe.
9 Therefore judgment has been far from us, And righteousness does not reach us, We wait for light, and behold, darkness, For brightness—in thick darkness we go,
Omiyo ngʼado bura makare koro bor kodwa, kendo tim makare ok chop irwa. Wagombo ler, to mudho ema waneno; kendo wadwaro mondo piny oru, to mudho mandiwa ema wawuothoe.
10 We feel [for] the wall like the blind, Indeed, we feel as without eyes, We have stumbled at noon as at twilight, In desolate places as the dead.
Wamulo kor udi mana ka muofni, kendo wamulo kuonde ma wawuothe, mana ka joma onge wengegi. Wachwanyore godiechiengʼ, mana ka gima en otieno kendo wachalo joma otho e kind joma rateke.
11 We make a noise as bears—all of us, And we coo severely as doves; We wait for judgment, and there is none, For salvation—it has been far from us.
Walak mana ka ondiegi kendo wadengo malit mana ka akuru. Wadwaro ngʼado bura makare to ok wayud kata achiel, kendo wamanyo ngʼama reswa to obor kodwa.
12 For our transgressions have been multiplied before You, And our sins have testified against us, For our transgressions [are] with us, And our iniquities—we have known them.
Nimar timbewa mamono opongʼo wangʼi kendo richowa elore e lela. Timbewa marichogo osiko kodwa kendo wayie timbewa mamonogo, ma gin:
13 Transgressing, and lying against YHWH, And removing from after our God, Speaking oppression and apostasy, Conceiving and uttering from the heart Words of falsehood.
ngʼanyo kendo ketho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, loko ngʼewa ne Nyasachwa, chano timo tulo kendo paro weche mag miriambo ka chunywa opongʼ kod wuond.
14 And judgment is removed backward, And righteousness stands far off, For truth has been feeble in the street, And straightforwardness is not able to enter,
Omiyo ngʼado bura makare ogol oko kendo tim makare ni mabor kodwa, adiera onge e yore matindo kendo tim makare ni kuma bor.
15 And the truth is lacking, And whoever is turning aside from evil, Is making himself a spoil. And YHWH sees, and it is evil in His eyes, That there is no judgment.
Adiera ok nyal yudi, kendo ngʼat motangʼ ne richo chuny ji ojokgo. Jehova Nyasaye norangogi kendo nokecho nikech ngʼado bura makare onge kuomgi.
16 And He sees that there is no man, And is astonished that there is no intercessor, And His own arm gives salvation to Him, And His righteousness—it sustained Him.
Ne oneno kaonge ngʼato kata achiel, kendo nobwok ni onge kata ngʼato madikony; omiyo bade owuon nokelone en owuon warruok kendo timne makare ema norite.
17 And He puts on righteousness as a breastplate, And a helmet of salvation on His head, And He puts on garments of vengeance [for] clothing, And is covered, as [with] an upper-robe, [with] zeal.
Norwakore tim makare ka law akor mar nyinyo, kendo ne orwako warruok ka ogut lweny; bende ne orwako chulo kuor ka ngʼama rwako law, kendo nobolo mirima mager kuome ka law abola.
18 According to deeds—so He repays. Fury to His adversaries, [their] deed to His enemies, To the islands He repays [their] deed.
Obiro chulo ngʼato ka ngʼato mana moromore gi timbene, obiro kumo wasike duto gi mirima mager kendo obiro kumo joma odakie dho nembe.
19 And from the west they fear the Name of YHWH, And from the rising of the sun—His glory, When an adversary comes in as a flood, The Spirit of YHWH has raised an ensign against him.
Koa yo podho chiengʼ, ji noluor nying Jehova Nyasaye, kendo koa yo wuok chiengʼ, oganda nomiye duongʼ. Nimar nobi ka pi mongingore ma much Jehova Nyasaye osekudho.
20 “And the Redeemer has come to Zion, Even to captives of transgression in Jacob,” A declaration of YHWH.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Jalno makelo Resruok nobi Sayun, mondo ores nyikwa Jakobo moseweyo richogi.”
21 “And I—this [is] My covenant with them,” said YHWH, “My Spirit that [is] on you, And My words that I have put in your mouth, Do not depart from your mouth, And from the mouth of your seed, And from the mouth of your seed’s seed,” said YHWH, “From now on, even for all time!”
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Akwongʼora ni ma e singruokna kodgi. Roho mara man kuomu kod wechena ma aseketo e dhou nosik kodu chakre kawuono nyaka tiengʼ mabiro bangʼu koa kuom nyikwau kadhi nyaka kuom nyithindgi, wach ok nowuogi e dhog-gi ndalo duto nyaka chiengʼ,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.
