< Isaiah 48 >

1 [Yahweh says], “You descendants [MTY] of Jacob, who are [also] descendants of Judah and are now called [the people of] Israel, Listen to me! You make solemn promises using my name, Yahweh, and you request that I, the God to whom you Israeli people belong, [will hear you], but you do not do it sincerely.
Tamagra Jekopu naga'ma Israeli vahere huno'ma tamagima me'negeta, Juda nagapinti'ma efore'ma hu'naza vahe'mota ama'na nanekea antahiho. Tamagra Ra Anumzamofo agifi huvempa huta Israeli vahe'mota Ra Anumzamo'a Ra Anumza mani'ne hutma huama nehazanagi, tamagra havige tamagiteti nehuta, fatgo tamavutamavara nosaze.
2 You say that you live in the holy city [of Jerusalem], and [you insincerely say] that you are relying on me, the God to whom you [people of] Israel belong, the one who is the Commander of the armies of angels.
Tamagra Ra Anumzamo huhamparintegeno ruotge hu'nea Jerusalemi kumapi vahe mani'nonankino, Israeli vahe Anumzamo'a taza hugahie huta antahintahia nehuta, ana Anumzamofo agi'a Monafi sondia vahe'mofo Ra Anumzane huta nehaze.
3 Long ago I [MTY] predicted what would happen [DOU]. And then suddenly, I caused those things to happen.
Hagi henkama efore'ma hania zankura korapa huama hutogeno, ana zantamimo'a ame huno fore huno ko evu'ne.
4 I knew that you people are very stubborn; I knew that your heads are [MET] [as hard as] iron or brass [DOU].
Na'ankure tamagrira ko tamage'na antahi'na Nagra hu'noankino tamagu'amo'a hankavetigeno, tamanankemo'a hankavetino ainigna higeno, tamasenimo'a hanavetino bronsigna hu'ne.
5 That is why I told you those things long ago. Long before they occurred, I announced that they would occur, in order that [when they happened] you could not say ‘Our idols did it; our statue made of wood and our idol made of metal caused them to happen.’
E'ina hu'neanki'na ama anazama tamagritera forera osu'nege'na, ko huama hu'na tamasami'noe. Na'ankure ana zamo'ma tamagrite'ma efore'ma hanigeta, havi anumzamofo amema'a zafarero, ainireti'ma tro'ma hunte'naza zamo eri forera nehie huta hu'zanku ko tamasami'noe.
6 You have heard those things [that I predicted] and now you have seen that they have all occurred, so why do you not admit it [RHQ]? Now I will tell you new things, things that you have not known previously.
Ko'ma tamasami'na henkama fore hugahie hu'nama hu'noa zantamina ko fore higeta ke'naze. Hianagi tamagra tamage hu'ne huta ana zankura huamara osu'naze. Ana hu'neankina kora ontamasami'noa zantami kasefa zantaminku menina neramasamina, oku'ama frakinoma megeta onke'naza zantamina eri ama hu'na tamasamigahue.
7 I am causing them to happen now; they are not things I did long ago. So you cannot say, ‘We already knew about those things.’
Korapara fore higeta onke'nazaza menina kasefa'za eri fore nehue. Ana nehuankita tamagra huta, antahi'nonaza eri fore nehie huta osugahaze.
8 [I will tell you about] things that you have never heard about or understood before. Even long ago you did not pay attention to me [IDM]. I know that you act very deceitfully/treacherously; you have rebelled against me since you first became a nation [MTY].
Hagi korapatima eno menima e'neana tamagesamo'a ankani renegetma ke ontahi vahe mani'nazanki'na, ama ana zankura huamara hu'na ontamasami'noe. Na'ankure Nagrama tamage'na antahi'nama hu'noana, esema fore'ma hunazaregatima manitama e'nazana keontahi vahe mani'naze.
9 But, for my own sake, in order that I will be honored, I will not punish [MTY] you immediately and I will not completely get rid of you.
Hianagi Nagra tamagrira narimpa aheramante'na tamahe fanane hunaku hu'noanagi, Nagrani'a nagimofo so'e zanku nagesa nentahi'na anara osu narimpama ahe'zana netroankiza, ana zankura nagia husga hugahaze.
10 I have purified you, but not the way [people refine] silver. Instead, I have caused you to suffer very much [to get rid of your impure behavior], like [MET] [people put metal in a very hot] furnace [to get rid of the impurities].
Hanki antahiho, Nagra tamagri'ma tamazeri agruma hu'noana amuhonentake tevefima silvama kreno eri agruma nehiazana hu'na tamazeri agrua osu'noe. Hianagi nagra amuhonentake knaza tami'na tamazeri agrua hu'noe.
11 But for my [MTY] own sake I will delay punishing you more; I will do it for my own sake in order that my reputation will not be damaged [RHQ]. I will not allow any [person or any idol] to be honored as I [deserve to be] honored.”
Nagra nagimofo so'e zanku nagesa nentahi'na, nagia huhaviza osnaze hu'na e'inahu zana hu'noe. Ana hu'noanki'za nagrike'za ra nagia namigahaze.
12 “You descendants [MTY] of Jacob, you people of Israel whom I have chosen, listen to me! [Only] I am God; I am the one who begins everything and who causes everything to end.
Israeli vahera Jekopu nagamota nagri keaga antahiho, nagra tamagri'ma kema hu'noa Anumzamo'na nagrake Ra Anumzana mani'noe. Nagrake ese agafa manine'na, nagrake vagarera mani'noe.
13 I [SYN] am the one who laid the foundation of the earth. I stretched out the sky with my hand. And when I tell [the stars] to appear, they all do what I tell them.
Nagra nazampinti erivako hu'na ama mopamo'ma regri'nea tra'a trora hu'noe. Tamaga nazanteti mona tro hu'na eri atarentogeno me'ne. Nagrama e'ina hi'o hu'nama huanke antahike monamo'ene mopamokea oti fatgo neha'e.
14 All of you, gather together and listen to me. None of your idols has [RHQ] told this to you: I, Yahweh, have chosen [Cyrus] to assist me, and he will do to Babylon what I want him to do, and his army will get rid of [the army of] Babylonia.
Tamagra maka'mota amare magopi emetru hu'netma nagrama hanua kea antahiho. Mago havi anumzamo'a henkama fore hania zankura amanagea huno tamasami'neo? Ra Anumzamo'a avesinentea ne' huntesnigeno eno, Babiloni kumate fore hanie huno'ma agesama nentahia zana emeri forera hanigeno, Ra Anumzamo'a Agra'a azanteti Babiloni vahera zamazeri haviza hugahie hunora tamasami'nefi?
15 I have said it; I have summoned [Cyrus]. I have appointed him, and he will accomplish everything that he attempts to do.
Nagra hu'noankina, ana nera ke hute'na avre'na esanugeno eri'zama eme erinia zamo'a knare hugahie.
16 Come close to me and listen to what I say. Long ago [MTY] I told you plainly/clearly [LIT] [what would happen], and when those things occurred, I was [causing them to happen].” And now Yahweh the Lord and his Spirit have sent me [to give you a message].
Nagrite erava'o hutma amama hanua nanekea antahiho. Ese agafarera nagra oku'a nanekea osu'noe. Anazama efore'ma nehigena nagra anante ko mani'noe. Hagi menina Ra Anumzamo'a Avamu'a nenamino hunantege'na e'noe.
17 This is what Yahweh, the one who saves you, the Holy God of [us] Israelis, says: “I am Yahweh, your God; I teach you what is important for you [to know]; I direct you and lead you to the roads that you should walk on [MET].
Israeli vahe'motare'ma Ruotage'ma hu'neno, tamagu vazino tamavre'nea Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nehie. Nagra knare huno tamaza hania zama rempi hunerami'na, knare kante'ma tamavre'na nevua Ra Anumzana tamagri Ra Anumza mani'noe.
18 I wish that you had paid attention to my commands! If you had done that, things would have gone well for you like [SIM] a river that flows gently; you would have been successful again and again, like [SIM] waves that come without ceasing.
Tamagrama Nagri kasegema antahitama amage'ma antaresina, timo'ma hageno evu'vava hiaza huno maka zupa tamarimpa frumo'a mevava nehina, fatgo tamavu tamava'mo'a, hagerimo ankenarega eme runagraseaza hisine.
19 Your descendants would have been [as many as] [MET] the grains of sand [on the seashore] [which no one can count]. I would not have needed to get rid of you; the country of [MTY] [Israel] would not have been destroyed.”
Tamagripinti'ma fore'ma haza vahe'mo'za, hageri ankenaregama me'nea kahepankna hu'za hamprigara osazasine. Ana nehazagena Nagri navugatira zamagia eri fananea osusine.
20 [However, now I tell you], leave Babylon! Flee from [being slaves of the people of] Babylonia! Proclaim this message joyfully; send it to the most remote/distant places on the earth: Yahweh freed the people of Israel [from being slaves in Egypt].
Babiloni kumara atretma atiramiho, Babiloni vahera zamatreta fretma viho. Tamagra muse nehutma kezatita, Ra Anumzamo'a eri'za vahe'a Israeli vahera Jekopu nagara ete zamagu vazino zamavare hutma, kea atrenkeno ama mopafina maka kaziga vuno eno hino.
21 They were not thirsty when he led them through the desert, because he split open the rock and caused water to gush/flow out for them [to drink].
Ko'ma Ra Anumzamo'ma vahe'ama zamavareno ka'ma kokampima e'neana, tinkura hagegea osu'naze. Agra havea rutanegeno timo'a herafiramige'za ne'naze.
22 “But things will not go well [like that] for wicked people,” says Yahweh.
Ra Anumzamo'a amanage nehie, Havi zamavu zamava'ma nehaza vahe'mo'za mani so'e hu'za zamarimpa frunena omanigahaze.
