< Isaiah 5 >

1 [Now] I will sing a song about my dear friend, and about his vineyard. The vineyard was on a very fertile hillside.
Hanki nagrama nave'masinentoa ne'mofo waini hoza'agu mago zagamera hugahue. Anama navesinentomo'a agona mopafina masavenke huno tretre hu'nefi mago waini hoza ante'ne.
2 My friend plowed the ground and cleared away the stones. Then he planted very good grapevines on that ground. In the middle of the vineyard, he built a watchtower, and he dug a (winepress/pit for squeezing the grapes). Then he waited [each year] to harvest some good grapes, but the vines produced [only] sour grapes.
Ana ne'mo'a mopa rehankorino haveramina zogi atreteno, anampina knare'nare waini rampa'a hankari'ne. Hagi anama huteno'a ana hozafina, mani'neza hozama kegavama hanaza nona kisga huno zare kinte'ne. Ana huteno hozamofo amu'nompina waini rgama regatati'ma hu keria have taga huno tro hunte'ne. Hagi anama huteno mani'neno, knare krepi raga rentenefi huno'ma keana, akake krepi raga rente'ne.
3 Now [this is what Yahweh says]: “You people of Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah, I [am like the friend, and you are like] my vineyard; [so] you judge which of us [has done what is right].
Ana'ma higeno'a hoza nafa'amo'a amanage hu'ne, Waini hozani'mo havizana hu'nefi, nagra havizana hu'nofi, Jerusalemi kumapine, Juda mopafima nemaniza vahe'mota refko huta keho.
4 What more could I have done for you than what I have already done? I expected you to be doing good deeds [MET], so it is disgusting that [RHQ] you were [doing only evil things] like the vineyard that produced only sour grapes!
Nagrama waini hoza'nimofoma huntega zana hago hunte'noanki, na'a nagra mago'zana huonte'noe? Knare krepi raga rente'nefi hu'nama ome koana, na'a hu'negenopi agra akake krepi raga rente'ne.
5 [So], I will now tell you what I will do to [Judah, the place that is like] my vineyard. I will cut down the hedges, and they will be destroyed. I will tear down the walls [of the cities] and allow [wild animals] to trample the land.
Hanki menina ana waini hoza'nimofona na'a huntegahufi tamasamigahue. Ana hozamofo kegina kana eri netre'na, hozamofo have kegina tapage hutresnugeno, afizaga gafamo'za ufre'za ana wainia zamagiareti rentrantru ahe'za eri havizantfa hugahaze.
6 I will cause it to become a wasteland where the vines are not pruned and the ground is not hoed. It will be a place where briers and thorns [DOU] grow. And I will command that no rain will fall on it.”
Ana nehanage'na ana hoza mopa eri haviza ha'nena, ka'makoka fore hugahie. Ana hanugeno mago vahe'mo'e huno mopa rehakorige, krepi nofi'mofo azanku namanku'a rosegara nosanigeno, havi trazamo'ene ave've tra'zamo'a ana hozafina hageno marerigahie. Ana nehina hampomofona huntenugeno, ana hozafina kora ruontegahie.
7 The nation of Israel is [like] [MET] the vineyard of the Commander of the armies of angels. The people of Judah are [like] the garden that was pleasing to him. He expected you to be doing what is just/fair, but instead, [what he saw was people] murdering [MTY] others. [He expected that you would be doing] righteous deeds, but instead, he heard cries from people who were being [attacked] violently.
Hanki Israeli vahe'ene Juda vahe'mo'zanena Hankavenentake Ra Anumzamofo waini hozagna hu'za mani'naze. Ana hu'nazageno fatgo huno refko hu avu'avaza hanafi huno zamagripina ke'neanagi, vahe'ma aheno korama eri tagi zamo avinetegeno, fatgo avu'avaza hanafi huno'ma ke'neanagi, vahe'ma zamahe friza krafagege antahi'ne.
8 Terrible things will happen to you who continually [illegally] acquire houses and fields. You force one family after another to leave their homes until you are the only ones [HYP] [still] living in the land.
Hanki hazenkefi manigahazanki antahiho, ko'ma nompima mani'naza vahe'ma zamahenati netreta nozamima mizaseta enerita, ko'ma hozama ante'naza mopama mizaseta zamahenati netraza vahe'mota maka vahe'mo'za tamatre'za fresageta ana mopafina tamagrake manigahaze.
9 [But] I heard the Commander of the armies of angels solemnly declare this: “[Some day], many of those huge houses will be empty/deserted; no one will be living in those beautiful mansions.
Hianagi nagra nentahugeno hankavenentake Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno huvempa kea hu'ne. Tamagerfa huno ama ana knare'nare ranra nontamimo'a havizantfa hina, mago vahe'mo'e huno ana nontamimpina omanitfa hugahie.
10 The vines on ten acres of land will not produce enough grapes to make (six gallons/22 liters) [of juice/wine], and ten baskets of seed will produce only one basket [of grain].”
Hagi rama'a waini hoza antesazanagi, osi'a raga rentena tagita regatatia hugahaze. Ana nehina 10ni'a kupinti fraguvazita witi avimzana hankregahaze. Hianagi vasagesazana magoke kuke eririgahaze.
11 Terrible things will happen to those who get up early [each] morning to begin drinking alcoholic drinks, and who stay awake until late at night [drinking a lot of wine] until they are completely drunk.
Hagi nanterampima otita aka tima nenaza vahe'motane, kinagama aka tima nenazageno'ma vuno kenege'ma nesegeta neginagima nehaza vahe'mota hazenke erigahaze.
12 They have [big parties and provide lots of] wine. At their parties, there are [people playing] harps and lyres and tambourines and flutes, but they never think about what Yahweh does or appreciate what he has created.
Hagi ana vahe'mo'za wainine aka tine ne'zanema kre'za nene'za musenkasema hazafina, lailiema nehaza zavenane hapu zavenane nasenasepane konkene nere'za musena nehaze. Hianagi zamagra Ra Anumzamofo avu'ava zanku'ene, azampinti'ma tro'ma hu'nea zanena nege'za agrira antahi nomize.
13 So, my people will be (exiled/taken to other countries) [far away] because they do not know [about me]. Those who are [now very important and] honored will starve, and the other people will die from thirst.
E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Tamagerfa hu'za nagri vahe'mo'za nagrira antahi amara osazagu, ha' vahe'zamimo'za eme zamavare'za ru moparega ome kina huzmantegahaze. Hagi zamagima me'nea vahe'zamimo'za ne'zanku nefrisage'za, vea kevumo'za tinkura havizantfa hugahaze.
14 [It is as though] [PRS] the place where the dead people are is eagerly looking for more Israeli people, opening its mouth to swallow them, and a huge number of people will be thrown into that place, including their leaders as well as a noisy crowd of people who enjoy living in Jerusalem. (Sheol h7585)
Hagi Jerusalemi kumapima mani'naza kva vahe'ene, vea kevumota aka tima neneta musenkasema nehuta, tamagima erisgama nehaza vahe'ma tamasgahu nakrinakura, fri vahe kerimo'a razampi agira eri aka nehie. (Sheol h7585)
15 [Yahweh] will get rid of a huge number of people; and he will humble [many more] people who [now] are proud/arrogant.
Ana nehuno mika vahera zamazeri fenkami tregahie. Hagi zamagima me'nea vahera zamazeri fenkami netreno, zamavufaga rama nehaza vahera zamazeri fenkami atregahie.
16 But the Commander of the armies of angels will be exalted/praised because of his acting justly. God will show that he is holy by doing righteous/just deeds.
Hianagi fatgoma huno refko'ma hu avu'ava zama'agu hu'za hankavenentake Ra Anumzamofona agi'a erisga nehanageno, ruotage'ma hu'nea Ra Anumzamo'a ruotage hu'noe huno fatgo avu'ava zana zamaveri hugahie.
17 Then lambs and fat sheep will [be able to] find good grass to eat, [even] among the ruins [of the houses of rich people].
Hagi ana knafina sipisipi afumoza knare trazana hake'za nene'nageno, afovage sipisipine agaho meme afumo'zanena havizama hu'nea kumapina vano nehu'za trazana negahaze.
18 Some people constantly tell lies, and [it is as though] they are dragging behind them the wrong things that they have done. Terrible things will happen to them!
Hagi havigema hu avu'ava zanu'ma kumima renteta avazuma huta nevaza vahe'mota, tamagra ra hazenke erita havizantfa hugahaze.
19 They [make fun of God and] say [to him, ] “Go ahead, do something [to punish us]! We want to see what you will do. You, the Holy One of Israel, should do what you are planning to do, because we want to know what it is.”
Hagi tamagra amanage nehaze, Israeli vahete'ma ruotage'ma hu'nea Anumzamo'ma eri'zama eri'naku'ma nehiana ame huno erisigeta negesunkeno, antahintahi'ama retroma hu'nea zana ame huno eri fore hanigeta tagra'a tavufinti ke'nune hutma nehaze.
20 Terrible things will happen to those who say that evil is good, and that good is evil, that darkness is light and that light is darkness, that what is bitter is sweet and what is sweet is bitter.
Hagi tamagra kefo zanku'ma knare zane nehutma, knare zanku'ma kefo zane nehutma, haninkuma masae nehutma, masagu'ma hanine nehutma, aka zankuma haga zane nehutma, haga zanku'ma aka zanema nehaza vahera hazenke erigahaze.
21 Terrible things will happen to those who think that they are wise and that they (are very clever/know everything).
Hagi tamagra hutma, knare antahintahi eri'neta mago'a vahe'ma zamagate re'nonema hutama nehaza vahera hazenke erigahaze.
22 Terrible things will happen to those who [think that] [IRO] they are great/heroes because they are able to drink [lots of] wine, and boast about being able to mix good alcoholic drinks.
Hagi aka tima ne'zante'ene, aka tima eri haviama hu' zante'ma ugagotama nehaza vahera, tamagra hazenke erigahaze.
23 If people offer them bribes in order that they will enable wicked people not to be punished, they accept those bribes, and they cause people who are innocent to be punished.
Hagi nanekema refko'ma hu' zupa, hazenke'ma hu'naza vahe'mo'za masave hu'za zagoa tamizageta, zamatrazage'za fru hu'za nevazageta, hazenkezmima omne'nea vahe'mofo kea refko hutma keso'e osuta kna nezamize.
24 Therefore, just like [SIM] fires burn up stubble and dry grass shrivels up and quickly burns in flames, [it will be as though] those people have roots that will rot and have flowers that will wither. [That will happen] because they rejected the laws of the Commander of the armies of angels; they have despised the messages of the Holy One of Israel.
E'ina hu'negu, hagagema hu'nea trazama tevemo tefanane hiaza huno ana maka te fanana hanige'za, zafamofo rafu'namo hagage higeno ani'namo harari huneramigeno, flaua'ma renteana zaho'mo eripopo hutreaza hugahaze. Na'ankure Israeli vahete'ma ruotage'ma huno hankavenentake'ma hu'nea Ra Anumzamofo kasegea amagera onte'nazagu anara hugahaze.
25 That is why Yahweh is [extremely] angry [with his people]; [it is as though] his hand is raised [and he is ready to smash them]. [When he does that], the mountains will shake, and the corpses of people will be scattered in the streets like [SIM] manure. But even when that happens, Yahweh will still be very angry; he will be ready to punish his people [MET] again.
E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzamo'a agri'a vahera rimpa ahenezmanteno azana rusuteno zamazeri haviza nehie. Hagi azana rusuteno agonaramina eri tore'vare nehuno, vahera zamahe frigeno, fri vahe zamavufagamo'a kumapima me'nea ne'onse kantamimpina amne zankna huno avite'ne. Ra Anumzamo'a agra ana hu'neanagi rimpa ahe'zamo'a frua osu'negeno azana erisga huteno mani'ne.
26 Yahweh will send a signal to summon [armies of] nations far away; [it is as though] he will whistle [to summon those soldiers who are] in very remote places on the earth. They will come very swiftly [DOU] [to Jerusalem].
Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a mago avameza erisga hanige'za kokankoka vahe'mo'za eme atru nehanageno, mopama ome atretegama mani'naza vahera hoge hanige'za tragiza egahaze.
27 They will not get tired or stumble. They will not [stop to] rest or to sleep. None of their belts will be loose, and none of them will have sandals with broken straps, [so they will all be ready to fight in battles].
Hanki ana vahera hankavenentake vaheki'za mago zamimo'e huno avesragura nosanigeno, mago'mo'a trakara huno nomasenigeno, mago zamimo'e hunora avutokora huno nomasenigeno, magomofo amu' nofimo'a krekora nosanigeno ina, zamagia nomofo nofi'mo'a magore huno akamprura osugahie.
28 Their arrows will be sharp, and their bows will be ready [to shoot those arrows in a battle]. [Because their horses pull the chariots fast], sparks will shoot out from their hooves, and the wheels of the chariots will spin like a whirlwind.
Ana vahe'mokizmi kevemofo agona'amo'a roro hu'nege'za, ati zami'a erigri krarape'za keve ahe'are tro hu'za mani'naze. Hagi hosi afuzamimofo agiamo'a hankavenentake havegna higeno, karisimofo wilimo'a kagikagi zahomo'ma ame'ma huno kagiankna huno kagigagi hu'ne.
29 They will roar like [very strong] lions [DOU] that growl and [then] pounce on the animals they want to kill and carry them off, and no one is able to rescue them.
Hagi laionimo krafama huno'ma eaza hu'za neageno, mago kasefa laionimo mago zaga azampi azeriteno, avazu huno fregeno mago vahe'mo'ma agu'ma ovaziankna huza krafa hu'za egahaze.
30 [Similarly, your enemies] will roar when they see the people they are about to kill, like [SIM] the sea roars. [On that day], if someone looks across the land, he will see [only people who are in] darkness and distressed; [it will be as though] even the sunlight is hidden by dark clouds.
Hanki anama ha'ma eri'za esaza zupa, ana vahe'mo'zama krafama hu'za esaza krafa kemo'a hagerimo havere eme rupokraseteno, sasa huno eramiaza nehanige'za egahaze. Hagi vahe'mo'ma kegamateno ama mopafima kesniana, kumamo'a havizantfa hina, hanizamo refite'nesnigeno kegahaze. Ana nehanigeno zagemofona hampomo avuga rufitesnigeno remsa osuno hanintiri hugahie.
