< Isaiah 46 >
1 He has bowed down Bel [is] stooping low Nebo they belong idols their to the animal[s] and to the cattle burdens your [are] carried a load for a weary [animal].
Atĩrĩrĩ, Beli nĩĩinamĩrĩire, nayo Nebo ĩkahocerera; mĩhianano yacio ya kũhooywo ĩkuuagwo nĩ nyamũ cia mũtitũ o na ngʼombe. Mĩhianano ĩyo mĩacũhie ĩkuuagwo kũndũ na kũndũ nĩĩtuĩkĩte mĩrigo mĩritũ, mĩrigo ya kũnogia nyamũ iria imĩkuuaga.
2 They have stooped low they have bowed down together not they have been able to rescue a burden and self their in captivity it has gone.
Nyamũ icio na ngai icio cia kũhooywo irainamĩrĩra hamwe; ciothe ikaremwo nĩkũhonokia mĩhianano ĩyo ĩkuuĩtwo, nacio nyene igatahwo igatwarwo ũkombo-inĩ.
3 Listen to me O house of Jacob and all [the] remnant of [the] house of Israel who have been carried from [the] belly who have been borne from [the] womb.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, ta thikĩrĩriai, inyuĩ nyũmba ya Jakubu, inyuothe matigari ma nyũmba ya Isiraeli, o inyuĩ arĩa ndũire nditikĩte kuuma rĩrĩa mwarĩ nda cia manyina manyu, na ngatũũra ndĩmũkuuĩte kuuma rĩrĩa mwaciarirwo.
4 And until old age I [am] he and until gray hair I I will carry I I made and I I will bear and I I will carry and I may rescue.
O na ũkũrũ-inĩ wanyu, no niĩ, o na rĩrĩa mũgaakorwo mũrĩ na mbuĩ, niĩ nĩ niĩ ngũmũtũũria muoyo. Nĩ niĩ ndaamũũmbire, na nĩ niĩ ngũtũũra ndĩmũkuuaga, ĩĩ ti-itherũ nĩ niĩ ngũmũtũũria muoyo na ndĩmũhonokagie.
5 To whom? will you liken me and you may make [me] equal? and will you compare? me and we may be alike.
“Niĩ-rĩ, mũngĩngerekania na ũ kana nũũ mũngĩnjiganania nake? Mũngĩĩhaanania na ũ nĩguo tũgerekanio nake?
6 Those [who] pour out gold from a bag and silver on scale[s] they weigh out they hire a metalsmith and he makes it a god they prostrate themselves also they bow down.
Andũ amwe maitũrũraga thahabu kuuma mondo-inĩ ciao, na magathima betha na ratiri; magacooka makaandĩka mũturi wa thahabu amĩthondeke ĩtuĩke mũhianano wa ngai yao, nao magacooka makamĩinamĩrĩra, makamĩhooya.
7 They lift up it on a shoulder they carry it and they set down it in place its so it may stand from place its not it departs also he cries out to it and not it answers from trouble his not it delivers him.
Mũhianano ũcio maũigagĩrĩra ciande ciao, makaũkuua; makaũiga handũ haguo, ũgaikara ũrũgamĩte o hau. No ndũngĩhota kuuma hau wĩtware. O na mũndũ angĩũkaĩra-rĩ, ndũngĩcookia, kana ũhonokie mũndũ ũcio kuuma mathĩĩna-inĩ make.
8 Remember this and pluck up courage bring [it] back O rebels on heart.
“Inyuĩ aremi aya, ririkanai ũndũ ũyũ, na mũwĩkĩre meciiria-inĩ manyu, mũũige ngoro-inĩ.
9 Remember former [things] from long ago for I [am] God and there not [is] yet God and there not [is] like me.
Ririkanai maũndũ marĩa mahĩtũkĩte, marĩa ma tene; niĩ nĩ niĩ Mũrungu, na gũtirĩ ũngĩ tiga niĩ; niĩ nĩ niĩ Ngai, na gũtirĩ ũngĩ ũhaana ta niĩ.
10 [one who] declares From [the] beginning [the] end and from antiquity [things] which not they have been done [one who] says purpose my it will be fulfilled and all desire my I will accomplish.
Niĩ menyithanagia maũndũ marĩa mageekĩka marigĩrĩrio-inĩ kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria, namo maũndũ marĩa magooka ngamamenyithania kuuma o tene. Ngoiga atĩrĩ: Ũrĩa nduĩte nĩũkahinga, namo maũndũ mothe marĩa nyendaga gwĩka-rĩ, no mo ngeeka.
11 [one who] calls From [the] east a bird of prey from a land of distance a man of (purpose my *Q(K)*) also I have spoken also I will bring it I have planned also I will accomplish it.
Nĩngeeta nyoni ndĩa nyama kuuma mwena wa irathĩro; nĩngeeta mũndũ wa kũhingia maũndũ marĩa nduĩte gwĩka kuuma bũrũri wa kũraya. Ũrĩa njugĩte nĩngahingia; ũndũ ũrĩa ndĩciirĩtie gwĩka nĩngawĩka.
12 Listen to me O [people] mighty of heart O [people] distant from righteousness.
Ta thikĩrĩriai, inyuĩ andũ a ngoro nyũmũ, o inyuĩ mũraihanĩrĩirie na ũhoro wa ũthingu.
13 I have brought near righteousness my not it is far away and salvation my not it will delay and I will give in Zion salvation to Israel splendor my.
Nĩngũreharehe ũthingu wakwa hakuhĩ, ndũrĩ kũraya; o naguo ũhonokio wakwa ũgũũka o narua. Ũhoro wa ũhonokio wakwa ngũwathĩrĩra Zayuni, na njathĩrĩre riiri wakwa kũrĩ Isiraeli.
