< Isaiah 33 >

1 Woe to thee that layest waste, and thou [wast] not laid waste; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to lay waste, thou shalt be wasted; [and] when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.
Unune malit un joma osetieko ji, to pok otieku! Unune malit un joma osendhogo ji, to un pok ondhogu! Ka uweyo tieko ji to notieku; bende ka uweyo ndhogo ji to nondhogu.
2 O LORD, be gracious to us; we have waited for thee: be thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, yie ikechwa; nimar chunywa dwari. Miwae teko okinyi ka okinyi, kendo bednwa kar resruok, e kinde mag chandruok.
3 At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered.
Ka dwondi omor to ji ringo; ka ia malo to ogendini ke.
4 And your spoil shall be gathered [like] the gathering of the caterpillar: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.
Yaye un ogendini, mwandu noyaki mana ka kama nyithi bonyo omonjo; kendo ji noyak mwandugi, mana kaka bonyo monjo piny.
5 The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.
Nying Jehova Nyasaye otingʼ malo, nimar odak e polo; obiro pongʼo Sayun gi tim makare kod adiera.
6 And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, [and] strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD [is] his treasure.
Enobed mise mar adier e ndalou, kar mwandu mar resruok gi rieko kod ngʼeyo; luoro Jehova Nyasaye e rayaw mar mwanduni.
7 Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the embassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.
To neuru kaka thuondige ywak malit e wangʼ yore; joote ma oseor mondo odwar kwe ywak malit.
8 The highways lie waste, the way-faring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.
Yore osedongʼ nono, kendo onge jowuoth e yo. Winjruok osekethi mi joma nobedo joneno ok dew, kendo onge ngʼama omi luor.
9 The earth mourneth [and] languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed [and] hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off [their fruits].
Piny ywak kendo dok chien, Lebanon ni e wichkuot kendo okethore, Sharon olokore ongoro ka Araba, kendo Bashan gi Karmel oyaki modongʼ nono.
10 Now will I rise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Koro abiro aa malo, mondo anyisu duongʼna gi tekona.
11 Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, [as] fire, shall devour you.
Ubiro mako ich to unywolo yamo; muya muyweyo en mach ma tiekou.
12 And the people shall be [as] the burnings of lime: [as] thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.
Ogendini nowangʼ, mi lokre pidhe mag buru, kendo mana kaka kudho mobet e bungu enowangʼ gi mach!”
13 Ye [that are] far off, hear what I have done; and ye [that are] near, acknowledge my might.
Un mudak mabor, winjuru gima asetimo, un mudak machiegni ngʼeuru tekona!
14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
Joricho man Sayun, kihondko osemako; kibaji ogoyo joma okia nyasaye, mi gisepenjore kendgi niya, “En ngʼa kuomwa manyalo dak kod mach mawengʼo magerni? Koso en ngʼa kuomwa manyalo dak kod mach maliel maonge gikone?”
15 He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil;
Ngʼatno mawuotho e ratiro kendo wacho gima adiera, ma tamore yudo ohala e yor mecho kendo ok oyie kawo asoya, ngʼatno ma ok chik ite e chenro mar neko, kendo odino wengene e neno timbe mamono,
16 He shall dwell on high: his place of defense [shall be] the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters [shall be] sure.
ma e ngʼama nodagi kuonde motingʼore gi malo, ma kare mar pondo nobedi got mochiel gohinga motegno. Chiembe ibiro chiw, kendo pi ok nodwon-ne.
17 Thy eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.
Wengeni biro neno ruoth kober kendo iningʼi piny molandore malach.
18 Thy heart shall meditate terror. Where [is] the scribe? where [is] the receiver? where [is] he that counted the towers?
E pachi inipar masiche machon: “Ere jatelo maduongʼ cha? Ere ngʼatno mane okawo osuru? Ere jatelo mochungʼne kuonde ngʼicho man malo?”
19 Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, [that thou canst] not understand.
Ok inichak ine jonjorego kendo, jogo ma wechegi oyombore, kendo mawacho dhok matek winjo.
20 Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thy eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle [that] shall not be taken down; not one of its stakes shall ever be removed, neither shall any of its cords be broken.
Ka irango Sayun, dala maduongʼ mar sewniwa moyier; ibiro neno Jerusalem kama kwe nitie, hema ma ok bi muki; loje mage ok nopudhi, kata tondene ok nochodi.
21 But there the glorious LORD [will be] to us a place of broad rivers [and] streams; in which shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass through it.
Kanyo Jehova Nyasaye biro bedonwa Jal Maratego. Kanyo nochalnwa ka aore kod mago matindo. Yiedhi man-gi tanga ok nokwangʼ kanyo, meli maduongʼ ok nokwangʼ e aore.
22 For the LORD [is] our judge, the LORD [is] our lawgiver, the LORD [is] our king; he will save us.
Nimar Jehova Nyasaye e jangʼadnwa bura, Jehova Nyasaye e jaketonwa chik, kendo Jehova Nyasaye e ruodhwa; en ema obiro resowa.
23 Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.
Tondegi mag meli obwodhore: Tanga ok otwe motegno, ok ginyal kwangʼ maber. Eka gik moyaki ibiro pogi kendo kata mana joma rongʼonde noyud pok.
24 And the inhabitants shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein [shall be] forgiven [their] iniquity.
Onge ngʼama odak Sayun manowachi niya, “Atuo,” kendo richo mag joma odak kanyo nowenegi.
