Isaiah 24
1 Lo! the Lord schal distrie the erthe, and schal make it nakid, and schal turmente the face therof; and he schal scater abrood the dwelleris therof.
Tazama, Bwana ataifanya dunia kuwa ukiwa na kuiharibu, naye atauharibu uso wake na kutawanya wakaao ndani yake:
2 And it schal be, as the puple, so the preest; as the seruaunt, so his lord; as the handmaide, so the ladi of hir; as a biere, so he that sillith; as the leenere, so he that takith borewyng; as he that axith ayen, so he that owith.
ndivyo itakavyokuwa kwa makuhani na kwa watu, kwa bwana na kwa mtumishi, kwa bibi na kwa mtumishi wake wa kike, kwa muuzaji na kwa mnunuzi, kwa mkopaji na kwa mkopeshaji, kwa mdaiwa na kwa mdai.
3 Bi distriyng the lond schal be distried, and schal be maad nakid by rauyschyng; for whi the Lord spak this word.
Dunia itaharibiwa kabisa na kutekwa nyara kabisa. Bwana amesema neno hili.
4 The erthe morenyde, and fleet awei, and is maad sijk; the world fleet awei, the hiynesse of the puple of erthe is maad sijk,
Dunia inakauka na kunyauka, dunia inanyongʼonyea na kunyauka, waliotukuzwa wa dunia wananyongʼonyea.
5 and the erthe is slayn of hise dwelleris. For thei passiden lawis, chaungiden riyt, distrieden euerlastynge boond of pees.
Dunia imetiwa unajisi na watu wake; wameacha kutii sheria, wamevunja amri na kuvunja agano la milele.
6 For this thing cursyng schal deuoure the erthe, and the dwelleris therof schulen do synne; and therfor the louyeris therof schulen be woode, and fewe men schulen be left.
Kwa hiyo laana inaiteketeza dunia, watu wake lazima waichukue hatia yao. Kwa hiyo wakazi wa dunia wameteketezwa, nao waliosalia ni wachache sana.
7 Vyndage morenyde, the vyne is sijk; alle men that weren glad in herte weiliden.
Divai mpya inakauka na mzabibu unanyauka, watu wote wafurahishao wanalia kwa huzuni.
8 The ioie of tympans ceesside, the sowne of glad men restide; the swetnesse of harpe with song was stille.
Furaha ya matoazi imekoma, kelele za wenye furaha zimekoma, shangwe za kinubi zimenyamaza.
9 Thei schulen not drynke wyn; a bittere drynk schal be to hem that schulen drynke it.
Hawanywi tena mvinyo pamoja na wimbo, kileo ni kichungu kwa wanywaji wake.
10 The citee of vanyte is al to-brokun; ech hous is closid, for no man entrith.
Mji ulioharibiwa umekuwa ukiwa, mlango wa kila nyumba umefungwa.
11 Cry schal be on wyn in streetis, al gladnesse is forsakun, the ioie of erthe is `takun awei.
Barabarani wanalilia kupata mvinyo, furaha yote imegeuka kuwa majonzi, furaha yote imefukuziwa mbali na dunia.
12 Desolacioun is left in the citee, and wretchidnesse schal oppresse the yatis.
Mji umeachwa katika uharibifu, lango lake limevunjwa vipande.
13 For these thingis schulen be in the myddis of erthe, in the myddis of puplis, as if a fewe fruitis of olyue trees that ben left ben schakun of fro the olyue tre, and racyns, whanne the vyndage is endid.
Ndivyo itakavyokuwa duniani na miongoni mwa mataifa, kama vile wakati mzeituni upigwavyo, au kama vile wakati masazo yabakiavyo baada ya zabibu kuvunwa.
14 These men schulen reise her vois, and schulen preise, whanne the Lord schal be glorified; thei schulen schewe signes of gladnesse fro the see.
Wanainua sauti zao, wanapiga kelele kwa furaha, kutoka magharibi wanasifu kwa ukelele utukufu wa Bwana.
15 For this thing glorifie ye the Lord in techyngis; in the ilis of the see glorifie ye the name of the Lord God of Israel.
Kwa hiyo upande wa mashariki mpeni Bwana utukufu, liadhimisheni jina la Bwana, Mungu wa Israeli, katika visiwa vya bahari.
16 Fro the endis of erthe we han herd heriyngis, the glorye of the iust. And Y seide, My priuyte to me, my pryuyte to me. Wo to me, trespassours han trespassid, and han trespassid bi trespassyng of brekeris of the lawe.
Kutoka miisho ya dunia tunasikia uimbaji: “Utukufu kwa Yule Mwenye Haki.” Lakini nilisema, “Ninadhoofika, ninadhoofika! Ole wangu! Watenda hila wanasaliti! Kwa hila watenda hila wanasaliti!”
17 Ferdfulnesse, and a diche, and a snare on thee, that art a dwellere of erthe.
Hofu, shimo na mtego vinakungojea, ewe mtu ukaaye duniani.
18 And it schal be, he that schal fle fro the face of ferdfulnesse, schal falle in to the diche; and he that schal delyuere hym silf fro the dich, schal be holdun of the snare; for whi the wyndows of hiye thingis ben openyd, and the foundementis of erthe schulen be schakun togidere.
Kila akimbiaye asikiapo sauti ya hofu atatumbukia shimoni, naye yeyote apandaye kutoka shimoni, atanaswa kwenye mtego. Malango ya gharika ya mbinguni yamefunguliwa, misingi ya dunia inatikisika.
19 The erthe schal be brokun with brekyng,
Dunia imepasuka, dunia imechanika, dunia imetikiswa kabisa.
20 the erthe schal be defoulid with defoulyng, the erthe schal be mouyd with mouyng, the erthe schal be schakun with schakyng, as a drunkun man.
Dunia inapepesuka kama mlevi, inayumbayumba kama kibanda kwenye upepo; imelemewa sana na mzigo wa hatia ya uasi wake na ikianguka kamwe haitainuka tena.
21 And it schal be takun awei, as the tabernacle of o nyyt, and the wickidnesse therof schal greue it; and it schal falle down, and it schal not adde, for to rise ayen. And it schal be, in that dai the Lord schal visite on the knyythod of heuene an hiy, and on the kyngis of erthe, that ben on erthe.
Katika siku ile Bwana ataadhibu nguvu zilizoko mbinguni juu, na wafalme walioko duniani chini.
22 And thei schulen be gaderid togidere in the gadering togidere of a bundel in to the lake, and thei schulen be closid there in prisoun; and aftir many daies thei schulen be visited.
Watakusanywa pamoja kama wafungwa waliofungwa gerezani, watafungiwa gerezani na kuadhibiwa baada ya siku nyingi.
23 And the moone schal be aschamed, and the sunne schal be confoundid, whanne the Lord of oostis schal regne in the hil of Sion, and in Jerusalem, and schal be glorified in the siyt of hise eldre men.
Mwezi utatiwa haya, nalo jua litaaibishwa; kwa maana Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote atawala juu ya Mlima Sayuni na katika Yerusalemu, tena mbele ya wazee wake kwa utukufu.
