< Isaiah 60 >

1 [You people of] Jerusalem [PRS], stand up! Yahweh has done glorious things for you, and he has acted powerfully for you; so show others that he is very great!
Aa malo mondo irieny nikech lerni osechopo, kendo duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye oserieny kuomi.
2 [But spiritual] darkness has covered [all the other people-groups on] the earth, complete darkness, but Yahweh will show you how great he is, and other people will also see it.
Neye mudho okwako piny, kendo ogendini ni e mudho mandiwa, to Jehova Nyasaye oserieny kuomi kendo duongʼne osenenore kuomi.
3 By seeing what he has done for you, [people of all] people-groups will see that he is very great, and kings will come to see the wonderful things that have happened to you.
Ogendini nobi, e lerni, kendo ruodhi nobi koneno lerni mar okinyi.
4 [Yahweh says], “Look around and you will see the people who will be returning from (exile/countries to which they have been forced to go)! Your sons will come from distant countries; others will carry your [little] daughters home.
Tingʼ wangʼi malo kingʼiyo koni gi koni: Gik moko duto ochokore kendo gibiro iri; yawuoti biro koa mabor kendo nyigi ikelo kotingʼ e bat.
5 When you look at this happening, you will be very joyful [DOU], because people will bring valuable goods to you [from all around the world]. They will bring in ships valuable things from [many] nations.
Eka inine mano mi inibed mamor ka chunyi opongʼ gi ilo, mwandu mogundho nokelni kokalo nam, kuomi ema mwandu mag ogendini noae.
6 People will [also] bring valuable goods to you on herds/caravans of camels: Camels from the Midian and Ephah [areas of northern Arabia]. And from Sheba [in southern Arabia] they will come, bringing gold and frankincense; they will all come to praise [me], Yahweh.
Kweth mag ngamia nopongʼ pinyi, ma gin ngamia matindo moa Midian gi Efa. Jogo duto moa Sheba ka gikelo dhahabu kod ubani, nobi ka gipako Jehova Nyasaye gi wer.
7 They will bring flocks [of sheep and goats] from Kedar [in northern Arabia and give them] to you. [They will bring] [PRS] rams from Nebaioth for you [to sacrifice] on my altars, and I will accept them [happily]. [At that time] I will cause my temple to be very beautifully decorated.
Jamni duto mag Kedar nochokni, imbe mag Nebayoth nobed mitimogo misango; ginibed gigo mitimonago misango e kendona mar misango, mi duongʼ maler mar hekalu mara nenre.
8 And what are those things that are moving swiftly like [SIM] clouds? They resemble [SIM] doves [returning] to their nests.
Magi to gin angʼo mafuyo ka boche polo, kata ka akuche maduogo e utegi?
9 But they are really ships from Tarshish that are bringing your people back here. When your people come, they will bring with them [all] the valuable possessions that they have acquired, and [they will do that] to honor [me], Yahweh, your God, the Holy One of Israel, because I will have greatly honored you.
Kuom adiera pinje manie dho nembe ngʼiya, motelonegi kabiro gin yiedhi mowuok Tarshish, makelo yawuotu koa mabor ka gitingʼo fedha kod dhahabu, magi biro miyogo nying Jehova Nyasaye duongʼ, Jal Maler mar Israel, nikech oseumi gi duongʼne.
10 Foreigners will [come and] rebuild the walls of your [cities], and their kings will serve/help you. Although I punished you because I was angry with you, these things will happen now because I will act mercifully toward you because I am kind.
Jopinje mamoko nochak oger ohinga maru kendo ruodhigi nobed jotichu. Kata obedo nine akumogi gi mirima, to kuom ngʼwonona koro abiro nyiso kechna mangʼeny.
11 The gates of your [cities] will be open during the day and [also] during the night, in order that people will be able to bring into your cities valuable things from [many] countries, with their kings being led to you in the processions.
Dhorangeyeni biro siko ka oyaw, ok nochieg-gi odiechiengʼ kata otieno, mondo owe thuolo ogendini okelni mwandu moa e pinje ka ruodhigi otelonegi.
12 And the kingdoms and nations whose [people] refuse to allow you to rule them will be completely destroyed [DOU].
Nimar ogendini kata pinjeruodhi ma ok notini norum; adier ibiro tiekgi chuth.
13 The glorious/beautiful things in Lebanon will be brought to you— [lumber from] cypress [trees] and fir [trees] and pine [trees]— to be used to make my temple beautiful. When that is done, my temple [MTY] will [truly] be glorious!
Duongʼ mar Lebanon nobini, yien mabeyo duto mag obudo kod saipras nokelni, mondo olosgo kara maler mar lemo kendo abiro miyo kar yweyo mar tienda duongʼ.
14 The descendants of those who (oppressed you/treated you cruelly) will come and bow down to you; those who despised you will prostrate themselves in front of your feet. They will say that your city on Zion Hill is the City of Yahweh, where the Holy One of Israel lives.
Yawuot joma ne osandi nobi iri kakulore e nyimi; jogo duto mane ojari biro kulore e tiendi, kendo giniluongi ni Dala Maduongʼ ma en mar Jehova Nyasaye, ma en Sayun mar Jal Maler mar Israel.
15 Previously everyone hated you and ignored you, but now your [city] will be majestic/honored forever; and [I will cause you to be] joyful forever.
Kata obedo ni osejwangʼi kendo osechayi, maonge ngʼama limi, abiro miyo ibed dala man-gi duongʼ mosiko kendo mor mar tiengʼ mabiro mangʼeny.
16 People of all nations and their kings will gladly bring [MET] their wealth to you. And [when that happens], you will realize that I truly am Yahweh, the one who saves you and rescues you [from your enemies], and that I am the mighty one to whom you Israeli people belong.
Ibiro madho chak mag pinje mi nopiri gi thuno mar joka ruoth. Eka iningʼe ni An e Jehova Nyasaye, ma Jawarni, Jaresni, Nyasaye Maratego mar Jakobo.
17 Instead of [metals that are not valuable, like] bronze and iron, I will bring to you silver and gold. Instead of wood and stones, I will bring you bronze and iron [for your buildings]. There will be peace in your country, and your rulers will do what is fair/just.
Kar mula anakelni dhahabu kendo fedha kar nyinyo. Kar yien anakel mula kendo nyinyo kar kite. Kwe ema nobed jaritni kendo tim makare ema notelni.
18 People in your country will no longer act violently, and people will no longer destroy your land and cause it to become desolate/ruined. The people in the city will be safe, and everyone there will praise me [MTY].
Timbe mahundu ok nochak owinji e pinyu, tuo kata kethruok moro marach ok nochak owinji machiegni gi tongʼ magu, to iniluong ohinga magi ni Warruok kendo dhorangeyeni ni Pak.
19 And you will no longer need the sun and moon to give you light, because [I], Yahweh, will give you more light [than the sun and moon]; I will be a glorious light for you forever.
Wangʼ chiengʼ ok nobed lerni mar odiechiengʼ kata mana ler mar dwe ok nomenyi, nimar Jehova Nyasaye ema nobed ler mari kendo Nyasachi ema nobed duongʼ mari.
20 [It will seem as though] the sun and moon will always be shining [LIT], because [I], Yahweh, will be an everlasting light for you. You will never again be sad [because of things that happen to you].
Wangʼ chiengʼ ok nochak opodhi bende dwe ok nochak olal kendo; Jehova Nyasaye ema nobed lerni manyaka chiengʼ kendo ndalogi mag kuyo norum.
21 Your people will all be righteous, and they will occupy the land forever, because I myself have put you there [like people plant trees] [MET] in order that you will show others that I am very great.
Omiyo jogi duto nobed joma kare kendo piny nobed margi nyaka chiengʼ. Ginichal gi bad yath ma an ema apidho gi lweta awuon mondo omiya duongʼ.
22 At that time, the [groups that are] very small now will become [very large] clans, and small clans will become great nations. [All those things will happen because], I, Yahweh, will cause them to happen at the right time.”
Ngʼat matinie kuomu nolokre oganda mangʼeny, kendo oganda matin nolokre piny maduongʼ man-gi teko. An Jehova Nyasaye ema nami gino timre piyo piyo ka kinde ochopo.
