< Isaiah 55 >

1 Alas! O every thirsty [one] come to the waters and [one] who not [belongs] to him money come buy grain and eat and come buy grain with not money and with not price wine and milk.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ inyuothe arĩa mũnyootiĩ-rĩ, ũkaai mũnyue maaĩ; na inyuĩ mũtarĩ na mbeeca-rĩ, ũkaai mũgũre irio, mũrĩe! Ũkaai, mũgũre ndibei na iria mũtarĩ na mbeeca mũkũruta, na hatarĩ na thogora.
2 Why? do you weigh out money for not bread and toil your for not to satiety listen steadfastly to me and eat good thing[s] so it may take delight in fatness appetite your.
Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma mũtũmĩre mbeeca harĩ irio gũtarĩ, o na mũnoge mũkĩrutĩra wĩra kĩndũ gĩtangĩmũhũũnia? Thikĩrĩriai na mũnjigue, nĩguo mũrĩĩage indo iria njega, nacio ngoro cianyu nĩirĩkenagĩra irio iria njega mũno.
3 Incline ear your and come to me listen so may it live self your and I will make to you a covenant of perpetuity [the] covenant loyalti of David reliable.
Tegai matũ mũthikĩrĩrie, na mũũke kũrĩ niĩ; njiguai nĩgeetha mũtũũre muoyo. Na niĩ nĩngarĩĩkanĩra na inyuĩ kĩrĩkanĩro gĩa gũtũũra tene na tene, arĩ wendo wakwa wa kwĩhokeka ũrĩa nderĩire Daudi.
4 Here! a witness of peoples I made him a leader and a commander of peoples.
Atĩrĩrĩ ũcio nĩndĩmũtuĩte mũira kũrĩ ndũrĩrĩ, na ngamũtua mũtongoria na mũnene wa ndũrĩrĩ.
5 There! a nation [which] not you know you will call and a nation [which] not they have known you to you they will run on account of Yahweh God your and to [the] holy [one] of Israel for he has glorified you.
Ti-itherũ nĩũgeeta ndũrĩrĩ iria ũtooĩ, nacio ndũrĩrĩ iria itakũũĩ itengʼere ciũke kũrĩ we, nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova Ngai waku, o we Ũrĩa Mũtheru wa Isiraeli, nĩgũkorwo nĩakũhumbĩte ũkengu mũnene.”
6 Seek Yahweh when he lets be found himself call on him when is he near.
Mathaai Jehova hĩndĩ ĩrĩa angĩoneka; mũkaĩrei hĩndĩ ĩrĩa arĩ hakuhĩ.
7 Let him forsake a wicked [person] way his and a person of wickedness thoughts his and let him return to Yahweh so he may have compassion on him and to God our for he will increase to forgive.
Mũndũ ũrĩa mwaganu nĩatigane na mĩthiĩre yake, nake mũndũ ũrĩa ũtarĩ mũthingu atigane na meciiria make mooru. Nĩacookerere Jehova, na nĩekũmũiguĩra tha, na acookerere Ngai witũ, nĩgũkorwo nĩakĩragĩrĩria kũrekanĩra.
8 For not thoughts my [are] thoughts your and not [are] ways your ways my [the] utterance of Yahweh.
“Nĩgũkorwo meciiria makwa timo meciiria manyu, o na kana mĩthiĩre yanyu ĩgatuĩka ta mĩthiĩre yakwa,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
9 For they are high [the] heavens more than [the] earth so they are high ways my more than ways your and thoughts my more than thoughts your.
“O ta ũrĩa matu maraihanĩrĩirie na thĩ, ũguo noguo mĩthiĩre yakwa ĩraihanĩrĩirie na mĩthiĩre yanyu, o na meciiria makwa magakĩra meciiria manyu.
10 For just as it comes down the rain and the snow from the heavens and there towards not it returns that except it has given water to the earth and it has caused to bring forth it and it has made sprout it and it has given seed to the sower and bread to the eater.
Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa mbura yuraga, narĩo ira rĩkaharũrũka kuuma igũrũ, na iticookaga kuo itaihũgĩtie thĩ na igatũma mĩmera ĩthundũke na ĩciare, nĩguo mũhandi aheo mbeũ na ũrĩa wendaga kũrĩa aheo irio ciake,
11 Thus it is word my which it goes forth from mouth my not it will return to me in vain that except it has done [that] which I desired and it has prospered [that] which I sent it.
ũguo noguo kiugo gĩakwa kĩrĩa kiumaga kanua gakwa gĩgaaikara: Kiugo kĩu gĩtikanjookerera o ro ũguo tũhũ, no nĩgĩkahingia ũrĩa nyendete wĩkwo, na gĩkinyanĩrie muoroto ũrĩa watũmire ndĩgĩtũme.
12 For in joy you will go out and in peace you will be led! the mountains and the hills they will break forth before you a shout of joy and all [the] trees of the field they will clap a palm.
Ũkoimagara na gĩkeno, na ũthiiage ũtongoretio nĩ thayũ; irĩma o na tũrĩma nacio nĩigaitĩka kũina rwĩmbo mbere yaku, nayo mĩtĩ yothe ya gĩthaka nĩĩkahũũra hĩ.
13 In place of the thornbush it will grow up a cypress (and in place of *Q(K)*) the nettle it will grow up a myrtle tree and it will become for Yahweh a name a sign of perpetuity [which] not it will be cut down.
Ithenya rĩa mĩigua-rĩ, gũkaamera mĩthengera, na ithenya rĩa congʼe kũmere mĩhandathi. Naguo ũndũ ũcio ũgaatuĩka wa gũtũma Jehova agĩe igweta, na ũtuĩke kĩmenyithia gĩa gũtũũra nginya tene, kĩrĩa gĩtagathũkio.”
