Isaiah 33
1 Woe to! [the] destroyer and you not [have been] destroyed and [the] traitor and not people have dealt treacherously with him when finishing you destroying you will be destroyed when completing you to deal treacherously people will deal treacherously with you.
Ole wako wewe, ee mharabu, wewe ambaye hukuharibiwa! Ole wako, ee msaliti, wewe ambaye hukusalitiwa! Utakapokwisha kuharibu, utaharibiwa; utakapokwisha kusaliti, utasalitiwa.
2 O Yahweh show favor to us for you we have waited be strength their to the mornings also salvation our in a time of distress.
Ee Bwana, uturehemu, tunakutamani. Uwe nguvu yetu kila asubuhi na wokovu wetu wakati wa taabu.
3 From [the] sound of tumult they flee peoples from arising your they scatter nations.
Kwa ngurumo ya sauti yako, mataifa yanakimbia; unapoinuka, mataifa hutawanyika.
4 And it will be gathered plunder your gathering of locust[s] like [the] rushing of locusts [someone will be] rushing on it.
Mateka yenu, enyi mataifa, yamevunwa kama vile wafanyavyo madumadu, kama kundi la nzige watu huvamia juu yake.
5 [is] exalted Yahweh for [he is] dwelling a high place he will fill Zion justice and righteousness.
Bwana ametukuka, kwa kuwa anakaa mahali palipoinuka, ataijaza Sayuni kwa haki na uadilifu.
6 And he will be [the] steadiness of times your wealth of deliverance wisdom and knowledge [the] fear of Yahweh it [will be] treasure his.
Atakuwa msingi ulio imara kwa wakati wenu, ghala za wokovu tele, hekima na maarifa; kumcha Bwana ni ufunguo wa hazina hii.
7 There! valiant one their they have cried out [the] outside towards messengers of peace bitter they weep!
Angalia, watu wake mashujaa wanapiga kelele kwa nguvu barabarani, wajumbe wa amani wanalia kwa uchungu.
8 They have been made desolate highways he has ceased [one who] passes by of a path someone has broken a covenant someone has rejected cities not anyone has valued humankind.
Njia kuu zimeachwa, hakuna wasafiri barabarani. Mkataba umevunjika, mashahidi wake wamedharauliwa, hakuna yeyote anayeheshimiwa.
9 It has dried up it has languished [the] land it has displayed shame Lebanon it has withered it has become Sharon like desert plain and [is] shaking off Bashan and Carmel.
Ardhi inaomboleza na kuchakaa, Lebanoni imeaibika na kunyauka, Sharoni ni kama Araba, nayo Bashani na Karmeli wanapukutisha majani yao.
10 Now I will arise he says Yahweh now I will exalt myself now I will lift myself up.
“Sasa nitainuka,” asema Bwana. “Sasa nitatukuzwa; sasa nitainuliwa juu.
11 You will conceive dry grass you will give birth to stubble breath your [is] a fire [which] it will consume you.
Mlichukua mimba ya makapi, mkazaa mabua, pumzi yenu ni moto uwateketezao.
12 And they will be peoples burnings of lime thornbushes cut down with fire they will be kindled.
Mataifa yatachomwa kama ichomwavyo chokaa, kama vichaka vya miiba vilivyokatwa ndivyo watakavyochomwa.”
13 Hear O distant [ones] [that] which I have done and know O near [ones] strength my.
Ninyi mlio mbali sana, sikieni lile nililofanya; ninyi mlio karibu, tambueni uweza wangu!
14 They are in dread in Zion sinners it has seized trembling godless [people] who? - will he sojourn of us a fire consuming who? will he sojourn of us hearths of perpetuity.
Wenye dhambi katika Sayuni wametiwa hofu, kutetemeka kumewakumba wasiomcha Mungu: “Ni nani miongoni mwetu awezaye kuishi na moto ulao? Ni nani miongoni mwetu awezaye kuishi na moto unaowaka milele?”
15 [one who] walks Righteousness and [one who] speaks uprightness [one who] rejects unjust gain of extortion [one who] shakes out hands his from taking hold on bribe [one who] shuts ear his from hearing blood and [one who] shuts eyes his from looking on evil.
Yeye aendaye kwa uadilifu na kusema lililo haki, yeye anayekataa faida ipatikanayo kwa dhuluma na kuizuia mikono yake isipokee rushwa, yeye azuiaye masikio yake dhidi ya mashauri ya mauaji, na yeye afumbaye macho yake yasitazame sana uovu:
16 He high places he will dwell [will be] strongholds of cliffs refuge his food his [will be] given water his [will be] reliable.
huyu ndiye mtu atakayeishi mahali pa juu, ambaye kimbilio lake litakuwa ngome ya mlimani. Atapewa mkate wake, na maji yake hayatakoma.
17 A king in beauty his they will see eyes your they will see a land of distances.
Macho yenu yatamwona mfalme katika uzuri wake na kuiona nchi inayoenea mbali.
18 Heart your it will meditate on terror where? [is one who] counted where? [is one who] weighed where? [is one who] counted the towers.
Katika mawazo yenu mtaifikiria hofu iliyopita: “Yuko wapi yule afisa mkuu? Yuko wapi yule aliyechukua ushuru? Yuko wapi afisa msimamizi wa minara?”
19 A people barbarous not you will see a people [too] unintelligible of lip for hearing stammering of tongue there not [is] understanding.
Hutawaona tena wale watu wenye kiburi, wale watu wenye usemi wa mafumbo, wenye lugha ngeni, isiyoeleweka.
20 See Zion [the] town of appointed feast our eyes your they will see Jerusalem a habitation undisturbed a tent [which] not anyone will pack up [which] not anyone will pull out tent pegs its to perpetuity and all ropes its not they will be torn apart.
Mtazame Sayuni, mji wa sikukuu zetu; macho yenu yatauona Yerusalemu, mahali pa amani pa kuishi, hema ambalo halitaondolewa, nguzo zake hazitangʼolewa kamwe, wala hakuna kamba yake yoyote itakayokatika.
21 That except there [will be] majestic Yahweh for us a place of rivers canals broad of both hands not it will go on it a ship of rowing and a ship majestic not it will pass along it.
Huko Bwana atakuwa Mwenye Nguvu wetu. Patakuwa kama mahali pa mito mipana na vijito. Hakuna jahazi lenye makasia litakalopita huko, wala hakuna meli yenye nguvu itakayopita huko.
22 For Yahweh [is] judge our Yahweh [is] commander our Yahweh [is] king our he he will deliver us.
Kwa kuwa Bwana ni mwamuzi wetu, Bwana ndiye mtoa sheria wetu, Bwana ni mfalme wetu, yeye ndiye atakayetuokoa.
23 They are loose ropes your not they make firm [the] base of mast their not they have spread out [the] sail then it will be divided booty of plunder in abundance lame [people] they will take as spoil spoil.
Kamba zenu za merikebu zimelegea: Mlingoti haukusimama imara, nalo tanga halikukunjuliwa. Wingi wa mateka yatagawanywa, hata yeye aliye mlemavu atachukua nyara.
24 And not he will say an inhabitant I am sick the people which dwells in it [will be] forgiven of iniquity.
Hakuna yeyote aishiye Sayuni atakayesema, “Mimi ni mgonjwa”; nazo dhambi za wale waishio humo zitasamehewa.
