Isaiah 56
1 Yahweh says [to all the people of Judah], “Do the things that are fair and just, because I will soon come to rescue [DOU] you.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Ngʼaduru bura makare kendo utim gima kare, nikech warruokna osekayo machiegni kendo timna makare chiegni fwenyore.
2 I will bless those who faithfully obey my laws about the Sabbath/rest days. I will bless those who (keep sacred/honor) my Sabbath/rest days, and who do not do any work on those days, and who refrain from [MTY] doing anything that is evil.
Ogwedh ngʼat matimo ma, mangʼado bura makare kendo ngʼatno marito chiengʼ Sabato ka ok odwanye, kendo ok oyie lwete mulo gik mogak.”
3 And foreigners who have believed in me should not say, ‘Yahweh will surely not allow me to belong to his people.’ And eunuchs should not say, ‘[Because I am unable to have children, I cannot belong to Yahweh]; I am like [MET] a tree that has completely withered.’
Kik ngʼat ma japiny moro moseyie kuom Jehova Nyasaye wachi ni, “Jehova Nyasaye biro kweda e kind ogandane adier.” Kendo ngʼato angʼata mabwoch kik wachi ni, “An mana ka yien motwo.”
4 They should not say that, because [I], Yahweh, say this to the eunuchs who obey my laws about the Sabbath, and who choose to do the things that please me, and who obey all [the other laws of] the agreement that I [made with the Israeli people]:
Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Joma bwoch, morito Sabato mara, mayiero timo gima miya mor, kendo morito singruokna,
5 I will cause to be put inside the walls of my temple a monument [DOU] to them; because of that monument, they will be honored more than they would have if they had children; they will be honored forever.
ei hekalu mara, anami nying-gi bedo rapar moloyo bedo gi yawuowi kod nyiri; bende anamigi nying ma ok norum nyaka chiengʼ.
6 I will also bless those who are not Israelis, who (join themselves to/believe in) me, and who serve me and worship and love me, and who obey my laws about the Sabbath, and who faithfully obey [all the other laws of] the agreement that I [made with the Israeli people].
Kendo jopinje mamoko mane oseyie kuom Jehova Nyasaye katiyone kohero nyinge, kendo kalame, jogo duto marito chiengʼ Sabato ma ok odwanye kendo morito singruokna,
7 I will bring them to my sacred hill [in Jerusalem], I will cause them to be [very] joyful in my temple where people pray to me, and I will accept the sacrifices that they completely burn [on my altar] and other sacrifices that they offer. I will do those things for them because I want my temple to be a building where people of all nations pray to me.
gin duto anakelgi e goda maler mi anamigi mor e oda mar lamo. Chiwo mag-gi mag misengini miwangʼo pep kod misengini mamoko nayiego e kendona mar misango; kendo oda noluongi ni od lamo mar ogendini duto.”
8 [I], Yahweh, the Lord, the one who will bring back the people of Israel who have been (forced to go/exiled) to other countries, say this: 'I will bring [from other countries] many more people to join those Israelis whom I have brought back.'”
Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ma en Jal ma choko jo-Israel duto, mane oter e twech wacho niya, “Pod abiro choko jomoko makel irgi, kaweyo mago mosechoki.”
9 “You [surrounding nations have armies that are like] [MET] animals in the forest; come and attack/destroy [Israel]!
Biuru un le manie thim, biuru mondo utiek gik moko un le mag bungu duto!
10 The Israeli leaders [should be like] watchdogs to protect the people, but [it is as though] they are blind. They are stupid. They are all [like] [MET] dogs that cannot bark. [Good watchdogs bark when strangers approach], [but the Israeli leaders do not warn the people that their enemies are coming]. Instead, they just want to lie down and sleep and dream.
Jorito mag Israel muofni, giduto gionge rieko; gichalo mana gi guogi mamuol, ma ok nyal giyo; kendo riere piny mi lek, nikech gihero nindo.
11 [And they are like] greedy dogs; they never get all that they want. They are [supposed to lead the people, like good] shepherds [lead their flocks], but they are ignorant, and they each do whatever they want to do.
Gin guogi ma dhogi mit kendo ok giyiengʼ. Gin jokwath maonge winjo; giduto gibaro ka giluwo yoregi giwegi, kendo moro ka moro dwaro gima kelone ohala ne en owuon.
12 They say to each other, ‘Come, let’s go and get some wine and [other] alcoholic/strong drinks, and let’s become drunk! And tomorrow we will enjoy drinking even more!’”
Giwacho e kindgi giwegi ni, “Biuru mondo wakaw divai! Wamadhuru kongʼo mi wamer! Kendo kiny nochal mana gi kawuono, to bende onyalo bedo maber moloyo.”
