Isaiah 8
1 YHWH said to me, "Take a large tablet, and write on it with a man's pen, 'For Maher Shalal Hash Baz;'
Jehova Nyasaye nowachone niya, “Kaw kalatas maduongʼ kendo indik wachni gi kalam mongʼongʼore ni Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz, tiende ni yeko biro chako timore machiegni.”
2 and I will take for myself faithful witnesses to testify: Uriah the priest, and Zechariah the son of Berechiah."
Kendo abiro luongo Uria jadolo kod Zekaria wuod Jeberekia mondo gibedna joneno mar adier.
3 I went to the prophetess, and she conceived, and bore a son. Then said YHWH to me, "Call his name 'Maher Shalal Hash Baz.'
Bangʼe ne ariwora gi chiega ma janabi madhako kendo ne omako ich mi onywolo wuowi kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Chake wuowino ni Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.
4 For before the child knows how to say, 'My father,' and, 'My mother,' the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria will be carried away by the king of Assyria."
Kapok nyathino odongo mongʼeyo luongo ‘wuonwa’ kata ‘minwa,’ to mwandu duto mag Damaski kaachiel gi gik moyaki mag Samaria notingʼ gi ruodh Asuria.”
5 YHWH spoke to me yet again, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo koda kendo kawacho niya,
6 "Because this people have refused the waters of Shiloah that go softly, and rejoice in Rezin and Remaliah's son;
“Nikech jogi osedagi, pi mamol mamuol kawuok Shilo, kendo gi mor mana gi Rezin kod wuod Remalia,
7 now therefore, look, YHWH brings upon them the mighty flood waters of the River: the king of Assyria and all his glory. It will come up over all its channels, and go over all its banks.
Omiyo Ruoth Nyasaye biro kelo kuomgi oula mopongʼ mag Aora, ma en ruodh Asuria gi joge mag lweny. Pi Aora nopongʼ wengene ma nomuom gengene,
8 It will sweep onward into Judah. It will overflow and pass through; it will reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of its wings will fill the breadth of your land, Immanuel.
kendo obiro muomo piny Juda mi ochop koni gi koni kokadho e diere, kendo kopongʼ thich nyaka oulano nokwak pinyu duto, yaye Imanuel!”
9 Make an uproar, you peoples, and be broken in pieces. Listen, all you from far countries. Prepare for battle, and be shattered.
Chokreuru ne lweny, un ogendini, ka luoro omakou! Chikuru itu un ji duto manie pinje maboyo! Bende ikreuru ne lweny ka luoro omakou! Bende ikreuru ne lweny ka luoro omakou!
10 Take counsel together, and it will be brought to nothing; speak the word, and it will not stand: for God is with us."
Kata dabed ni ungʼado rieko kuom gik mudwaro timo to ibiro thirgi; bende kata dabed ni uchano gima udwaro timo to ok notimre, nikech Nyasaye nikodwa.
11 For YHWH spoke thus to me with a strong hand, and instructed me not to walk in the way of this people, saying,
Jehova Nyasaye ne owuoyo koda ka bade maratego ni kuoma, kosiema ni mondo kik awuothi e yore mag ogandani. Nowacho niya,
12 "Do not say, 'A conspiracy.' concerning all about which this people say, 'A conspiracy.' And do not fear what they fear, nor be in dread.
“Gima jogi luongo ni andhoga Kik uluong ni andhoga; bende kik iluor gik ma giluoro kendo kik gibwogi.
13 YHWH of hosts is who you must regard as holy. He is the one you must fear. He is the one you must dread.
Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ema onego ikwan ka ngʼat maler, en ema onego umiye luor, kendo en ema onego kibaji mare goyi,
14 And he will be a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock that makes them fall to both the houses of Israel, for a trap and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
kendo en ema nobed kare maler; to ne jo-Israel kod jo-Juda, enobed kidi machwanyo ji kendo lwanda mamiyo gipodho. Chutho enobed obadho ma jo-Jerusalem nomokie.
15 Many will stumble over it, fall, be broken, be snared, and be captured."
Ji mangʼeny kuomgi nochwanyre mi gore piny kendo tur, nochiknegi obadho ma makgi.”
16 Wrap up the testimony. Seal the law among my disciples.
Koro twe kalatas mondikie wechego motegno kendo chan chikego e nyim jopuonjrena.
17 I will wait for YHWH, who hides his face from the house of Jacob, and I will trust in him.
Abiro dwaro Jehova Nyasaye ma opando wangʼe ne od Jakobo. Abiro keto genona kuome.
18 Look, I and the children whom God has given me are for signs and wonders in Israel from YHWH of hosts, who dwells on Mount Zion.
Eri an kaachiel gi nyithindo ma Jehova Nyasaye osemiya. Wan e ranyisi kod honni e piny Israel koa kuom Jehova Nyasaye Maratego modak e got mar Sayun.
19 When they tell you, "Consult with the spirits of the dead and familiar spirits who chirp and who mutter. Shouldn't a people consult with their gods, by consulting the dead on behalf of the living?"
Ka ji wachonu ni manyuru rieko kuom ajuoke gi jo-nyakalondo madhum kendo jajni, to donge dhano onego penj wach kuom Nyasaye? Angʼo momiyo upenjo joma otho wach mar joma ngima?
20 Turn to the law and to the testimony. If they do not speak according to this word, surely there is no morning for them.
To kar timo kamano to nonuru chike Nyasaye kod wechene! Ka ok ginyal wuoyo kaluwore gi wachni to ok ginyal konyo ngʼato.
21 They will pass through it, greatly distressed and hungry; and it will happen that when they are hungry, they will worry, and curse by their king and by their God. They will turn their faces upward,
Ginitangni e piny ka githagore kendo ka gidenyo, kendo e kindeno ma kech onurogi, igi nowangʼ matek mi gikwongʼ ruodhgi kod Nyasachgi.
22 and look to the earth, and see distress, darkness, and the gloom of anguish. They will be driven into thick darkness.
Eka ginikulre ka gingʼiyo piny, to chandruok gi mudho kod chuny malit ema ginine kendo noriembgi mawitgi e mudho mandiwa.
