< Isaiah 48 >
1 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and have come forth out of the waters of Judah, who swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, [but] not in truth, nor in righteousness.
Isala: ili fi dunu! Yuda egaga fi dunu! Nabima! Dilia da Hina Gode Ea Dioba: le sia: sa, amola dilia Isala: ili Gode Ema nodone sia: ne gadosa sia: sa. Be dilia sia: dafawaneyale hame sia: sa.
2 For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts [is] his name.
Be dilia gasa fili, dilia da Hadigi moilai bai bagade amo ea esalebe dunu, amola dilia da Isala: ili Gode (Ea Dio da Hina Gode Bagadedafa) amo dili fidima: ne dafawaneyale dawa: , amane sia: sa.
3 I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth from my mouth, and I showed them; I did [them] suddenly, and they came to pass.
Hina Gode da Isala: ili fi ilima amane sia: sa, “Na da musa: hemonega hobea misunu hou ba: la: lu, dilima sia: i dagoi. Amalalu, hedolodafa amo hou dafawane ba: ma: ne, Na da hamoi dagoi.
4 Because I knew that thou [art] obstinate, and thy neck [is] an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;
Dilia da hame nabasu hou, amola gasa fi hou hamomu, amo Na dawa: i galu. Dilia da ouli agoane selefamu hamedei, amola balase defele ga: nasi bagade hamomu, Na da dawa: i galu.
5 I have even from the beginning declared [it] to thee; before it came to pass I showed [it] thee: lest thou shouldst say, My idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.
Amaiba: le, Na da dilima hobea misunu hou amo hemonega ba: beba: le, sia: i dagoi. Dilia da dilia loboga hamoi ‘gode’ da dilia hou hahamoi dagoi, amo dilia da sia: sa: besa: le, Na da amo hou da hobea misunu, hemonega sia: i dagoi.
6 Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare [it]? I have showed ye new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.
Be wali Na ba: la: lusu sia: i liligi huluane da hamoi dagoi ba: sa. Amola amo ba: la: lusu liligi da dafawane, dilia da wali sia: sa. Wali Na da gaheabolo hou, Na da musa: wamolegei amo hobea misunu, Na da dilima olelemu.
7 They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardst them not; lest thou shouldst say, Behold, I knew them.
Na da wali hamonanebeba: le, amo hou da doaga: i. Agoanewane hou da musa: hamedafa ba: i. Amo hou da musa: ba: i ganiaba, dilia da amo hou huluane dawa: dagoi, dilia da sia: na: noba.
8 Yes, thou heardst not; yes, thou knewest not; yes, from that time [that] thy ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldst deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.
Be dilia hou da moloi hame, Na dawa: i galu. Dilia da eso huluane seselesu dunu agoane esala, dunu huluane da dawa: Amaiba: le, dilia da Na hobea hamomu hou hamedafa nabi.
9 For my name's sake will I defer my anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.
Dunu da Na Dio amoma nodoma: ne, Na da Na ougi dili mae wadela: lesima: ne gagusa. Na da dili hame gugunufinisimu.
10 Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
Na da se nabasu hou lalu agoane amo ganodini, silifa ea hou adoba: su agoane, dilia hou adoba: su. Be dilia da hamedei dunu, amo Na da ba: i dagoi.
11 For my own sake, [even] for my own sake, will I do [it]: for how should [my name] be profaned? and I will not give my glory to another.
Be amo hou Na da Na Dio gaguia gadoma: ne fawane hamoi. Na Dio wadela: lesima: ne, Na da hamedafa ba: mu. Amola eno dunu da Na Hadigi gilisili lamusa: , Na da logo hamedafa doasimu. Na Hadigi da Na Nisu fawane gagusa.”
12 Hearken to me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I [am] he; I [am] the first, I also [am] the last.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili fi dunu, Na da dili Nama misa: ne wele sia: nanu, ilegei dagoi. Na sia: nabima! Na da Gode amo Hemosu amola Dagosu, eno hame, Na da Godedafa.
13 My hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: [when] I call to them, they stand up together.
Na da osobo bagade ea bai amola mu amo Na loboga hamoi. Na da osobo bagade amola mu Nama misa: ne sia: sea, ilia da hedolo Nama misini gousa: sa.
14 All ye, assemble yourselves and hear; who among them hath declared these [things]? The LORD hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm [shall be on] the Chaldeans.
Dilia huluane gilisima amola nabima! Na ilegei dunu da Na hanai defele Ba: bilone doagala: mu. Eno ‘gode’ liligi afae da amo hou ba: la: lumu hamedei.
15 I, [even] I, have spoken, yes, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.
Na fawane da ema sia: i, amola ema misa: ne sia: i. Na da e gadili masa: ne oule asi, amola e didili hamoma: ne, Na fawane da ea logo fodoi.
16 Come ye near to me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there [am] I: and now the LORD God, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
Wali, Nama gadenena misa, amola Na sia: nabima. Hemonega amola fa: no Na da mae wamolegele, sia: moloidafa sia: i. Amola Na sia: sia: i da Na hamobeba: le, dafawane hamoi ba: i.” (Wali Hina bagade Gode Ouligisudafa da Ea gasa nama ianu, na asunasi dagoi.)
17 Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I [am] the LORD thy God, who teacheth thee to profit, who leadeth thee by the way [that] thou shouldst go.
Isala: ili Hadigi Gode, dilia Gaga: su, da amane sia: sa, “Na da Hina Gode, dilia Gode! Na da dilia hou noga: ma: ne dilima olelesa amola dilia noga: le masa: ne logo olelesa.
18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:
Dilia da na sia: noga: le nabi ganiaba, dilima hahawane hou hano da hafoga: su hame dawa: , amo defele dilima doaga: la: loba. Amola hasalasu hou hano wayabo bagade gafului da hano bega: doaga: sa, amo defele dilima doaga: la: loba.
19 Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like its gravel; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.
Amola dilia agoane hamoi ganiaba, diligaga fi ilia idi da sa: iboso ea idi defele ba: la: loba amola ilia hamedafa gugunufinisimu Na da hamonana: noba.”
20 Go ye forth from Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it [even] to the end of the earth; say ye, The LORD hath redeemed his servant Jacob.
Dilia! Ba: bilone soge fisili, hahawane gadili masa. Amo sia: hahawane wele sia: ma. Dunu huluane nabima: ne, hahawane agoane sia: mu, “Hina Gode da Ea hawa: hamosu dunu fi Isala: ili, amo gaga: i dagoi.”
21 And they thirsted not, [when] he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he cleaved the rock also, and the waters gushed out.
Hina Gode da Ea fi dunu amo gia: i bagade hafoga: i soge amo ganodini oule ahoanoba, ilia da hano hanai hame ba: i. Ea hamobeba: le, hano da igi amoga yogosa: i. E da igi oudahida: le, hano da amo ganodini misi.
22 [There is] no peace, saith the LORD, to the wicked.
Wadela: i hamosu dunu da gaga: su hame ba: mu,” Hina Gode da amane sia: sa.
