< Isaiah 26 >

1 In that day, this song will be sung in the land of Judah: "We have a strong city. He appoints salvation for walls and ramparts.
E ndalono wendni nower e piny Juda ni: Wan gi dala maduongʼ man-gi teko; Nyasaye kelo resruok e ohingane gi kuonde molwore.
2 Open the gates, that the righteous nation may enter: the one which keeps faith.
Yaw dhorangeye mondo oganda makare odonji, oganda morito yie.
3 You will keep him in peace, in peace whose thoughts are fixed on you, because he trusts in you.
Inirit gi kwe ngʼatno ma parone oriere tir, nikech ogeno kuomi.
4 Trust in Jehovah forever; for in JAH, Jehovah, is an everlasting Rock.
Gen kuom Jehova Nyasaye nyaka chiengʼ, nimar Jehova Nyasaye en Jehova Nyasaye ma Lwanda nyaka chiengʼ.
5 For he has brought down those who dwell on high, the lofty city. He lays it low to the ground. He casts it to the dust.
Odwoko piny joma otingʼore malo, odwoko dala maduongʼ mar ngʼayi piny, mi otoye matindo tindo ma olokre buru.
6 The feet of the poor tramples it down, the footsteps of the needy."
Tiende joma ithiro kod mag joma odhier nyone piny.
7 The way of the righteous is level. O Just One, you make the path of the righteous smooth.
Yor joma kare opie, yaye in Jal makare, iloso yor joma kare bedo maber.
8 Yes, in the path of your judgments, Jehovah, have we waited for you. Your name and your renown are the desire of our soul.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, wuotho e yore mag chikeni ema warito, nyingi kod duongʼ mari ema chunywa dwaro.
9 With my soul have I desired you in the night. Yes, my spirit within me will seek you early, for when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
Chunya gombi gotieno kendo chunya dwari gokinyi. Ka buchi makare biro e piny, ogendini mag piny puonjore yo makare.
10 Let favor be shown to the wicked, yet he will not learn righteousness. In the land of uprightness he will deal wrongfully, and will not see Jehovah's majesty.
Kata obedo ni ngʼwono itimone joricho, to ok gipuonjore tim makare; kata mana e piny joma kare gidhi nyime mana ka gitimo richo, ka ok gichiwo luor ne duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye.
11 Jehovah, your hand is lifted up, yet they do not see; they see the zeal of the people, and are ashamed. Yes, fire will consume your adversaries.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, isetingʼo badi malo, to ok gine. We mondo gine geno ma in-go, kuom jogi mi giyud wichkuot, kendo mad mach mokan ne wasiki wangʼ-gi duto.
12 Jehovah, you will ordain peace for us, for you have also worked all our works for us.
Jehova Nyasaye, isemiyowa kwe; kendo gik moko duto ma wasetimo in ema isetimonwa.
13 Jehovah our God, other lords besides you have had dominion over us, but by you only will we make mention of your name.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa, ruodhi mamoko ma ok in osetiyowa, makmana nyingi kende ema wamiyo luor.
14 The dead shall not live, and the departed spirits shall not rise. Therefore have you visited and destroyed them, and caused all memory of them to perish.
To koro jogo osetho kendo koro gionge; chunje moseago ok nochier. Ne ikumogi mi itiekogi maonge ngʼama parogi.
15 You have increased the nation, Jehovah. You have increased the nation. You are glorified. You have enlarged all the borders of the land.
Isemedo ogandawa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, isemedo ogandawa. Iseyudo duongʼ mana ne in iwuon; kendo isemedo tongʼ duto mar pinywa.
16 Jehovah, in trouble they sought you. They poured out a prayer when your chastening was on them.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, negimanyi e kinde mane ginie chandruok; kendo kane ikumogi ne gionge gi teko mar lemo.
17 Like as a woman with child, who draws near the time of her delivery, is in pain and cries out in her pangs; so we have been before you, Jehovah.
Mana kaka dhako man-gi ich machiegni nywol muoch kayo kendo ywak kawinjo rem mano, bende e kaka wanie nyimi yaye Jehova Nyasaye.
18 We have been with child. We have been in pain. We gave birth, it seems, only to wind. We have not worked any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
Wasebedo gi ich, muoch osekayowa malit to ne wanywolo mana yamo. Ok wasekelo warruok e piny, bende pod ok wanywolo ji e piny.
19 Your dead shall live; my dead bodies shall rise. Awake and shout for joy, you who dwell in the dust; for your dew is like the dew of the dawn, and the earth shall bring forth the departed spirits.
To jogi mosenindo kuom Jehova Nyasaye, nobed mangima, kendo ringregi nochier. In misiko e buru, chiew kendo igo koko gi mor. Thoo ma in-go chalo thoo mar okinyi, piny biro golo joma otho oko.
20 Come, my people, enter into your chambers, and shut your doors behind you. Hide yourself for a little moment, until the indignation is past.
Dhiuru, un joga, donjuru e uteu kendo loruru dhoutu, ponduru kuom ndalo matin nyaka ndalo mar mirimbe kal.
21 For, look, Jehovah comes forth out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity. The earth also will disclose her blood, and will no longer cover her slain.
To ne, Jehova Nyasaye biro kawuok kare mar dak mondo okum joma odak e piny kuom richogi. Piny noket ayanga remo mosechwer kuome, mi ok noum joge mosenegi.
