Isaiah 11
1 [Like] [MET] a [new] shoot [often] grows from the stump [of a tree], there will be a descendant of King David who will be a new king.
Nyakwar Jesse moro nowuogi mana ka bad yath maloth; Kuom tiende, Bade nonyag olemo.
2 The Spirit of Yahweh will always be with him. The Spirit will enable him to be wise and to understand [much about many things]. The Spirit will enable him to decide what is good to do, and will enable him to be very powerful. The Spirit will enable him to know Yahweh and to revere him.
Roho mar Jehova Nyasaye nobi kuome, en Roho makelo rieko gingʼeyo, kendo mangʼadone ji rieko kendo miyogi teko, bende en Roho mapuonjo ji luoro Jehova Nyasaye,
3 He will be glad to obey Yahweh. He will not decide [whether someone is righteous or not only] by seeing what that person looks like, or by listening to [what others say about that person].
kendo enobed mamor gi joma oluoro Jehova Nyasaye. Ok nongʼad bura kuom gima oneno giwangʼe, kata chiwo parone kod gima owinjo gi ite;
4 He will judge [the cases of] needy people fairly; and he will act justly toward poor people. He will punish evil people as a result of what he decides [MTY]; he will get rid of wicked people because of [MTY] [their behavior].
to gi adiera nongʼad bura ne joma odhier, kendo kuom bura makare enongʼad wach, mowinjore ni joma ochando manie piny. Dhoge ema nobed luth mogoyogo piny, bende wach moa e dhoge ema noneg-go joma timbegi mono.
5 He will always act righteously; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a belt [around his waist]. He will always speak what is true; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a sash [around his waist].
Tim makare nobed okanda mare kendo adiera nobed misip motweyo e nungone.
6 [When he becomes king], wolves and lambs will live together [peacefully]; leopards, [instead of killing] baby goats, will lie down with them. [Similarly], calves and lions will eat food together; and a young child will take care of them.
Ondiek nodag kaachiel gi nyirombe, kwach nonind kaachiel gi diel, nyaroya kod sibuor nokwa kaachiel, kendo nyathi matin nokwagi.
7 Cows and bears will eat [together]; bear cubs and calves will lie down together. Lions will [not eat other animals]; [instead], they will eat hay like cows do.
Dhiangʼ gi ondiek nokwa kaachiel, kendo nyithindgi nonind kanyakla, kendo sibuor nocham lum ka rwath.
8 Babies will play [safely] near the holes where cobra snakes [live]; small children will [even] put their hands into nests of poisonous snakes, [and the snakes will not harm them].
Nyathi madhoth notug machiegni gi dho bur thuond rachier, kendo rawera noso lwete e bur thuond fu.
9 No creatures will harm or kill other creatures on [Zion Hill], my holy hill; and the earth will [be filled with people who] know Yahweh like [SIM] the seas are full of water.
Ok ginihiny kata ketho gimoro e godena duto maler, nimar rieko mar Jehova Nyasaye nopongʼ piny, mana ka pi mopongʼo nam.
10 At that time, a descendant of King David will [hold up] a flag to signal to the people of all people-groups [that they should gather around him]; they will come to him to get his advice, and the place where he lives will be glorious.
Odiechiengno Nyakwar Jesse nochungʼ kaka ranyisi ne ji; mi ogendini nobi ire, kendo kare mar yweyo nobed gi duongʼ.
11 At that time, Yahweh will (reach out his hand/use his power) as he did long ago; he will enable those who had been (exiled from/forced to leave) Israel to return home, from Assyria, from northern Egypt, from southern Egypt, from Ethiopia, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath, and from all the distant countries near the sea.
Kindeno Ruoth Nyasaye norie bade kendo koresogo joge mane odongʼ e lwet jo-Asuria, koa Misri mamwalo nyaka mamalo, koa Kush, Elam, Babulon, Hamath to gi chula manie ii nam.
12 Yahweh will raise his flag among [all] the people-groups, and he will gather together the people of Israel who had been exiled [long ago]. He will gather from very distant places [IDM] on the earth the people of Judah who [(had been scattered to/are living in) those places].
Enochung bandera ne ogendini mi ochok jo-Israel mane oriembi e pinygi; kendo enochok jo-Juda kanyakla ka ogologi e tunge angʼwen mag piny.
13 [Then], the people of Israel and the people of Judah will not be jealous of each other [any longer], and they will no [longer] be enemies of each other.
Nyiego mar jo-Efraim norum bende jowasik Juda notieki; kendo jo-Efraim ok nochak obed gi nyiego gi jo-Juda, kata jo-Juda ok nobed gi ich wangʼ kod jo-Efraim.
14 Their [armies] will [join together to] attack the people of Philistia to the west. And together they will attack nations to the east; they will [defeat those nations and] take away all their valuable possessions. They will capture [the areas of] Edom and Moab, and the people of the Ammon people-group will be controlled/ruled by the people of Israel and Judah.
Ginimonj jo-Filistia kagiwuok yo podho chiengʼ, kendo giniriwre ka giyako gige ji nyaka yo wuok chiengʼ. Ginikaw piny Edom kod Moab, Jo-Amon to nobed wasumbinigi.
15 Yahweh will make a dry road through the sea near Egypt. And [it will be as though] he will wave his hand over the [Euphrates] River and send a strong wind to cause it to divide into seven streams, with the result that people will be able to walk across [those streams].
Jehova Nyasaye nomi nam makwar mar jo-Misri dwon, eka norie lwete e Aora Yufrate, mi okel yamo maliet. Nopog aorano nyadibiriyo, mondo omi ji ongʼade ka girwako mana pat pat.
16 And because he will make a highway for his people who are living in Assyria, they will be able to return [to their own land], just like [long ago] he made a path for [the people of] Israel [so that they could go through the water] when they left Egypt.
Wangʼ yo maduongʼ nobedi ne joge manok mane odongʼ koa e piny Asuria, mana kaka wangʼ yo nobedone jo-Israel kawuok Misri.
