< Isaiah 35 >
1 Wilderness and parched land, shall be glad for them, —And the waste plain, shall exult, and blossom as the lily:
Atĩrĩ, werũ ũtarĩ kĩndũ na bũrũri ũrĩa mũũmũ nĩigakena; werũ nĩũgakena na ũcanũke. O ta mahũa ma nyeki-inĩ,
2 It shall, blossom abundantly, and exult, Yea with exultation and shouts of triumph, The glory of Lebanon, hath been given to it, The splendour of Carmel, and Sharon, —They, shall see the glory of Yahweh, the splendour of our God.
werũ nĩũkaruta kĩro kĩingĩ; nĩũgakena mũno, na wanĩrĩre nĩ gũkena. Nĩũkaheo riiri o ta wa Lebanoni, na ũheo ũkengi o ta wa Karimeli, na wa Sharoni; nĩmakona riiri wa Jehova, na mone ũkengi wa Ngai witũ.
3 Strengthen ye the weak hands, —The trembling knees, make ye firm:
Ĩkĩrai hinya moko marĩa maregeru, na maru marĩa maregerete mũtũme marũgame wega;
4 Say to the hurried in heart, Be strong, Do not fear, —Lo! your God, with avenging, doth come, With the recompence of God, He, doth come to save you.
andũ arĩa marĩ na guoya ngoro meerei atĩrĩ, “Mwĩyũmĩrĩriei, tigai gwĩtigĩra; atĩrĩ, Ngai wanyu nĩagooka, na agooka na ũhoro wa kũrĩhanĩria; nĩwe ũgooka na iherithia rĩa Ngai, ooke kũmũhonokia.”
5 Then, shall be opened the eyes of the blind, —And, the ears of the deaf, be unstopped:
Hĩndĩ ĩyo maitho ma atumumu nĩmakahingũka, na matũ ma andũ arĩa mataiguaga macooke kũigua.
6 Then, shall leap as a hart the lame, Then shall shout the tongue of the dumb, For, there have broken forth—In the desert—waters, And streams, in the waste plain:
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũndũ ũrĩa ũthuaga nĩakarũgarũga ta thwariga, na rũrĩmĩ rũrĩa rũtaaragia rwanĩrĩre nĩ gũkena. Namo maaĩ nĩmagatherũka kuuma werũ-inĩ, natuo tũrũũĩ tũtherere werũ-inĩ wa mũthanga.
7 Then shall the glowing sand, become a lake, And thirsty ground—springs of water, —In the home of the wild dog—its lair, Shall be an enclosure for cane and paper—reed.
Mũthanga ũrĩa mũhiũ ũgaatuĩka karia ka maaĩ, nayo thĩ ĩyo ngʼaru ĩtherũke ithima cia maaĩ. Imamo iria cianakomwo nĩ mbwe-rĩ, igaakũra nyeki, na ithanjĩ, o na marura.
8 And there shall be there, a raised way—even a high road, And the Highroad of Holiness, shall it be called, There shall not pass over it one who is unclean; But He Himself, shall be one of them travelling the road, And the perverse, shall not stray [thereinto].
Nakuo kũu nĩgũkagĩa barabara njariĩ; nayo ĩgeetagwo Njĩra ĩrĩa Nyamũre. Andũ arĩa matarĩ atheru matikamĩgera; ĩgaakorwo ĩrĩ Njĩra ya andũ arĩa mamĩgeraga; nĩ ũndũ ũcio o na andũ akĩĩgu matikamĩhĩtia.
9 There shall be, there, no lion, Nor shall ravenous beast, go up thereon, It shall not be found, there, —Thus, shall travel the redeemed;
Gũtirĩ mũrũũthi ũgaakorwo njĩra-inĩ ĩyo, o na kana nyamũ o yothe ndĩani ĩmĩgerere; nyamũ icio itikoonekana njĩra-inĩ ĩyo. No rĩrĩ, andũ arĩa makũũrĩtwo nĩo oiki makaamĩgerera,
10 And the ransomed of Yahweh! shall return, And shall enter Zion with shouting, With gladness age-abiding, upon their head, Joy and gladness shall overtake them, And sorrow and sighing, shall flee away.
nao andũ arĩa akũũre a Jehova nĩmagacooka. Magaatoonya Zayuni makĩinaga; nao nĩmageekĩrwo thũmbĩ ya gĩkeno gĩa tene na tene. Magaakena na macanjamũke, nakĩo kĩeha o na mũcaayo nĩigathira biũ.
