< Isaiah 51 >
1 Listen to me O [those who] pursue righteousness [those who] seek Yahweh look to [the] rock [which] you were dug and to [the] excavation of [the] pit [which] you were dug out.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ mũrũmagĩrĩra maũndũ ma ũthingu ta thikĩrĩriai, o inyuĩ mũrongoragia Jehova: Rorai rwaro rwa ihiga rũrĩa mwarutirwo, o na kĩenjero kĩa mahiga kĩrĩa mwenjirwo;
2 Look to Abraham ancestor your and to Sarah [who] she gave birth to you if one [person] I called him and I blessed him and I multiplied him.
ta rorai Iburahĩmu, o we ithe wanyu, o na Sara, ũrĩa wamũciarire. Nĩgũkorwo hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aarĩ o wiki nĩguo ndamwĩtire, na ngĩmũrathima, ngĩtũma aingĩhe.
3 For he will comfort Yahweh Zion he will comfort all waste places its and he made wilderness its like Eden and desert plain its like [the] garden of Yahweh joy and gladness it will be found in it thanksgiving and [the] sound of music.
Ti-itherũ Jehova nĩakahooreria Zayuni, o na ahoorerie kũndũ gwakuo kũrĩa kwanangĩtwo; werũ wakuo akaaũtua o ta Edeni, na rũngʼũrĩ rwakuo arũtue o ta mũgũnda wa Jehova. Kũu guothe gũkaiyũra gĩkeno, na gũcanjamũka ngoro, na gũcookagia ngaatho, o gũkĩinagwo nyĩmbo.
4 Pay attention to me O people my and O nation my to me give ear for law from with me it will go out and justice my a light of peoples I will make suddenly.
“Inyuĩ andũ akwa ta thikĩrĩriai, na inyuĩ rũrĩrĩ rwakwa, njiguai: Nĩgũkorwo watho ũkoima harĩ niĩ; nakĩo kĩhooto gĩakwa nĩkĩo gĩgaatuĩka ũtheri wa ndũrĩrĩ.
5 [is] near Righteousness my it has gone out salvation my and arms my peoples they will judge to me islands they will wait and to arm my they will hope!
Ũhoro wakwa wa ũthingu nĩũrooka o na ihenya, nakuo kũhonokania gwakwa kũrĩ hakuhĩ kuoneka, o nakuo guoko gwakwa nĩkuo gũgaatuĩra andũ a ndũrĩrĩ ciira wa kĩhooto. Andũ a icigĩrĩra-inĩ nĩ niĩ magaacũthĩrĩria na meterere guoko gwakwa marĩ na mwĩhoko.
6 Lift up to the heavens eyes your and look to the earth beneath for [the] heavens like smoke they will be dispersed and the earth like garment it will wear out and inhabitants its like gnat[s] they will die! and salvation my for ever it will be and righteousness my not it will be broken.
Tiirai maitho manyu na igũrũ, na mũrore thĩ ĩrĩa ĩrĩ mũhuro; igũrũ rĩkaabuĩria o ta ndogo, nayo thĩ ĩthire o ta ũrĩa nguo ĩthiraga, nao atũũri ao makuage o ũguo ta ngi. No rĩrĩ, ũhonokio wakwa nĩwagũtũũra nginya tene, naguo ũthingu wakwa ndũrĩ hĩndĩ ũgaathira.
7 Listen to me O [those who] know righteousness a people [which] law my [is] in heart their may not you fear [the] reproach of humankind and from reviling words their may not you be dismayed.
“Ta njiguai, inyuĩ andũ arĩa mũũĩ ũhoro wa ũthingu, o inyuĩ andũ arĩa mũrũmĩtie watho wakwa ngoro-inĩ cianyu: Mũtigetigĩre kũmenwo nĩ andũ, o na kana mũmakio nĩ irumi iria mamũrumaga nacio.
8 For like garment it will eat them moth and like wool it will eat them clothes-moth and righteousness my for ever it will be and salvation my to a generation of generations.
Nĩgũkorwo makaarĩĩo nĩ memenyi mathire biũ o ta nguo; na marĩĩo nĩ igunyũ o ta marĩ guoya wa ngʼondu. No rĩrĩ, ũhoro wakwa wa ũthingu nĩ wa gũtũũra nginya tene, naguo ũhonokio wakwa ũtũũre nginya njiarwa-inĩ ciothe.”
9 Awake awake put on strength O arm of Yahweh awake like days of antiquity generations of antiquiti ¿ not [are] you she who cut in pieces Rahab [who] pierced [the] sea monster.
Arahũka, arahũka! Wĩĩkĩre hinya, wee guoko kwa Jehova; arahũka o ta ũrĩa waarahũkire matukũ marĩa ma tene, warahũke o ta hĩndĩ ya njiarwa cia tene. Githĩ wee tiwe watinangirie Rahabu tũcunjĩ, o wee watheecangire nyamũ ĩyo nene, ũkĩmĩtũrĩkania?
10 ¿ Not [are] you she who dried up [the] sea [the] water of [the] deep great who made [the] depths of [the] sea a way to pass over redeemed [people].
Githĩ tiwe wahũithirie iria, maaĩ ma kũndũ kũrĩa kũriku mũno, o wee watemire njĩra kũu iria-inĩ kũrĩa kũriku, nĩgeetha andũ arĩa wakũũrĩte maringĩre yo?
11 And [the] [people] ransomed of Yahweh they will return! and they will come Zion with a shout of joy and gladness of perpetuity [will be] on head their joy and gladness they will overtake [them]! they will flee sorrow and sighing.
Andũ arĩa akũũre a Jehova nĩmagacooka. Nao magaatoonya Zayuni makĩinaga; nĩmagekĩrwo thũmbĩ ya gĩkeno gĩa tene na tene. Magaakena na macanjamũke, nakĩo kĩeha na mũcaayo nĩigathira biũ.
12 I I [am] he [who] comforts you who? [are] you and you have been afraid from a person [who] he dies and from a child of humankind [who] grass he is made.
“Niĩ, o niĩ mwene-rĩ, nĩ niĩ ndĩmũhooreragia. Wee ũrĩ ũ, atĩ nĩguo wĩtigĩre andũ arĩa makuuaga, na ũgetigĩra ariũ a andũ arĩa magaatuuo o ta nyeki,
13 And you have forgotten Yahweh [who] made you [who] stretched out [the] heavens and [who] founded [the] earth and you have been in dread continually all the day of [the] anger of the oppressor when he has prepared to destroy and where? [is] [the] anger of the oppressor.
nawe ũkariganĩrwo nĩ Jehova ũrĩa wakũũmbire, o we ũrĩa watambũrũkirie matu, na agĩaka mĩthingi ya thĩ, atĩ nĩguo o ũtũũrage na guoya o mũthenya nĩ ũndũ wa mangʼũrĩ ma mũhinyanĩrĩria rĩrĩa ekwĩhaarĩria aniinane? Namo mangʼũrĩ ma mũhinyanĩrĩria ũcio-rĩ, makĩrĩ ha?
14 He will hasten [one who] stoops to be let loose and not he will die to the pit and not he will lack food his.
Nao oohwo arĩa marainaina nĩ guoya nĩmekuohorwo o narua; matigakuĩra kũu marima-inĩ ma njeera, o na kana irio ciao ciage.
15 And I [am] Yahweh God your [who] stirs up the sea and they roared waves its [is] Yahweh of hosts name his.
Nĩgũkorwo nĩ niĩ Jehova Ngai wanyu, ũrĩa ũtũmaga iria rĩikie ndiihũ nĩguo makũmbĩ marĩo makaruruma; Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩrĩo rĩĩtwa rĩake.
16 And I have put words my in mouth your and with [the] shadow of hand my I have covered you to plant [the] heavens and to found [the] earth and to say to Zion [are] people my you.
Nĩnjĩkĩrĩte ciugo ciakwa kanua-inĩ gaku, na ngakũhumbĩra na kĩĩruru gĩa guoko gwakwa, o niĩ ndatambũrũkirie matu harĩa marĩ, na ngĩaka mĩthingi ya thĩ, o niĩ njĩĩraga andũ a Zayuni atĩrĩ, ‘Inyuĩ mũrĩ andũ akwa.’”
17 Rouse yourself rouse yourself arise O Jerusalem who you have drunk from [the] hand of Yahweh [the] cup of anger his [the] bowl of [the] cup of staggering you have drunk you have drained.
Arahũka, arahũka! Wee Jerusalemu ũkĩra, o wee ũnyuĩrĩire gĩkombe kĩa mangʼũrĩ ma Jehova, ũnengereirio kuuma guoko-inĩ gwake, o wee ũnyuĩrĩire kuuma mbakũri ĩrĩa ĩtũmaga andũ matũgũũge na ũkamĩinĩkĩrĩria.
18 There not [is one who] leads her of all [the] children [whom] she has borne and there not [is one who] takes hold on hand her from all [the] children [whom] she has brought up.
Harĩ ariũ ake othe arĩa aaciarire, gũtirĩ o na ũmwe ũngĩmũtongoria; o na ningĩ ariũ ake othe arĩa aarerire-rĩ, gũtirĩ o na ũmwe ũngĩmũnyiita guoko.
19 Two [things] they [have] happened to you who? does he show sympathy to you the devastation and the destruction and the famine and the sword who? do I comfort you.
Mogwati maya meerĩ nĩmo magũkorete; nũũ ũgaagĩkũhooreria? Mogwati macio nĩ mwanangĩko na ũniinani, ningĩ nĩ ngʼaragu o na rũhiũ rwa njora; nũũ ũgaagĩkũhooreria?
20 Children your they have become faint they have lain down at [the] head of all [the] streets like an antelope of a net which [are] full [the] anger of Yahweh [the] rebuke of God your.
Ariũ aku nĩmaringĩkĩte; nao makomete macemanĩrio-inĩ ma njĩra ciothe, magakoma o ta thiiya ĩnyiitĩtwo nĩ mũtego. Maiyũrĩtwo nĩ mangʼũrĩ ma Jehova, na ikũũma rĩa Ngai wanyu.
21 Therefore hear please this O afflicted [one] and O drunken [one] and not from wine.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio igua ũhoro ũyũ, wee ũnyariirĩtwo, ũkarĩĩo, no ti ndibei ĩkũrĩĩte.
22 Thus he says lord your Yahweh and God your [who] he conducts a case for people his here! I have taken from hand your [the] cup of staggering [the] bowl of [the] cup of anger my not you will repeat to drink it again.
Mwathani Jehova Ngai waku ũrĩa ũgitagĩra andũ ake, ekuuga ũũ: “Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩngwehereirie gĩkombe kĩrĩa gĩatũmire ũtũgũge, ngakĩruta guoko-inĩ gwaku; o na ngakwehereria mbakũri ya mangʼũrĩ makwa, na ndũgacooka kũmĩnyuĩra rĩngĩ.
23 And I will put it in [the] hand of [those who] torment you who they said to self your lie down so let us pass over [you] and you made like the ground back your and like the street for [those who] pass over.
Nĩnganeana mbakũri ĩyo moko-inĩ ma arĩa makũnyariiraga, o arĩa maakwĩrire atĩrĩ, ‘Wĩgũithie thĩ, nĩguo tũkũgerere igũrũ.’ Nawe ũgĩkoma, mũgongo waku ũgĩtuĩka taarĩ thĩ, na ũkĩũtua taarĩ njĩra nĩguo andũ acio makũgeragĩre igũrũ.”
