Isaiah 35
1 The wilderness and the parched land shall be glad, And the desert rejoice and blossom as the rose;
Gbegbe kple anyigba si ƒu kplakplakpla la akpɔ dzidzɔ. Gbedadaƒo atso aseye ahaƒo se abe dzogbenya ene,
2 It shall blossom abundantly, and exult with joy and singing; The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it; The beauty of Carmel and Sharon; They shall behold the glory of Jehovah, The majesty of our God;
aƒo se, atso aseye, eye wòado dzidzɔɣli. Woagbugbɔ Lebanon ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe nɛ, Karmel ƒe lãnyiƒe kple Saron ƒe gbe dama ƒe atsyɔ̃ agatrɔ ava na wo, eye woakpɔ Yehowa ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe kple míaƒe Mawu la ƒe atsyɔ̃.
3 Strengthen ye the weak hands, And confirm the tottering knees!
Do ŋusẽ asi beliwo, eye nàli ke klo siwo le ƒoƒom la;
4 Say ye to the faint-hearted, “Be ye strong; fear ye not; Behold your God! Vengeance cometh, the retribution of God; He will come and save you!”
migblɔ na ame siwo ƒe dzi le vɔvɔ̃m be, “Misẽ ŋu, migavɔ̃ o. Miaƒe Mawu la gbɔna. Ava kple hlɔ̃biabia kple teƒeɖoɖo, eye wòaɖe mi.”
5 Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened, And the ears of the deaf be unstopped.
Ekema ŋkugbagbãtɔwo ƒe ŋkuwo aʋu, eye tokunɔwo ƒe towo aʋu.
6 Then shall the lame leap like the hart, And the tongue of the dumb shall sing; For in the wilderness shall waters break forth, And streams in the desert.
Tekunɔ ati kpo abe zi ene, eye aɖetututɔ ado dzidzɔɣli, Tɔsisi aŋɔ ɖe gbegbe, eye tɔʋuwo asi tso gbedadaƒo.
7 The glowing sands shall become a pool, And the thirsty ground springs of water; In the habitation of jackals, where they lie, Shall be a place for reeds and rushes.
Blezibleziteƒewo atrɔ azu tsita eye anyigba si ƒu kplakplakpla la agbɔ agbe kple tometsi. Teƒe siwo nye amegaxiwo nɔƒe tsã la atrɔ azu lãnyiƒe azɔ, eye aƒlawo kple ati si ƒe aŋgbawo dzi woŋlɔa nu ɖo tsã la amie ɖe afi ma.
8 And a path shall be there, and a highway, And it shall be called the holy way; No unclean person shall pass over it; it shall be for them alone; He that therein goeth in this way, though a fool, shall not err therein.
Mɔtata gbadza aɖe anɔ afi ma. Woayɔe be kɔkɔenyenye ƒe mɔ. Ame makɔmakɔwo mazɔ mɔ sia dzi o. Anye toƒe na ame siwo zɔna le mɔ ma dzi. Gegemewo gɔ̃ hã matra le edzi o.
9 No lion shall be there, Nor shall any ravenous beast go up thereon; It shall not be found there; But the redeemed shall walk there.
Dzata alo lã wɔadã aɖeke mazɔ afi ma o. Womakpɔ wo dometɔ aɖeke le afi ma o. Ke ame siwo woɖe la koe azɔ afi ma.
10 Yea, the ransomed of Jehovah shall return; They shall come to Zion with songs: Everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; They shall obtain joy and gladness, And sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
Ame siwo Yehowa xɔ ƒle la koe atrɔ gbɔ. Woatsɔ hadzidzi age ɖe Zion; woatsɔ dzidzɔ mavɔ aɖo atsyɔ̃ na woƒe tawo. Dzidzɔ kple aseyetsotso adze wo ŋgɔ, eye nuxaxa kple hũɖeɖe maganɔ anyi o.
