Isaiah 43
1 And now the Lord God, makynge of nouyt thee, Jacob, and formynge thee, Israel, seith these thingis, Nyle thou drede, for Y ayenbouyte thee, and Y clepide thee bi thi name; thou art my seruaunt.
Lakini sasa haya ndio Yahwe asemayo, yeye aliyekuumba ewe, Yakobo, na yeye aliyekuumba ewe, Israeli: ''Usiogope, kwa maana nimekukomboa wewe; nmeikuita kwa jina lako, wewe ni wangu.
2 Whanne thou schalt go bi watris, Y schal be with thee, and floodis schulen not hile thee; whanne thou schalt go in fier, thou schalt not be brent, and flawme schal not brenne in thee.
Utakapopita katika maji, Nitakuwa pamoja na wewe; na katika mito, hayatakuzuru wewe. Utakapotembea katika moto hautaungua, na moto hautakuharibu wewe.
3 For Y am thi Lord God, the hooli of Israel, thi sauyour. I yaf thi merci Egipt; Ethiopie and Saba for thee.
Maana mimi Yahwe Mungu wako, Mtakatifu wa Israeli Mkombozi wenu. Nimewapa Misri kama fidia yenu, Ethiopia na Seba watabadilishana kwako.
4 Sithen thou art maad onourable, and gloriouse in myn iyen; Y louyde thee, and Y schal yyue men for thee, and puplis for thi soule.
Kwa maana ulikuwa wa thamani na maalumu katika macho yangu, Ninakupenda; kwa sababu hiyo Nitatoa watu kwa ajili yako, na watu wengine kwa ajili ya maisha yako.
5 Nyle thou drede, for Y am with thee; Y schal brynge thi seed fro the eest, and Y schal gadere thee togidere fro the west.
Usiogope, maana Mimi niko pamoja na wewe; Nitawarudisha watoto wako kutoka mashariki, na kuwakusanya nyie kutoka magharibi.
6 Y schal seie to the north, Yyue thou, and to the south, Nyle thou forbede; brynge thou my sones fro afer, and my douytris fro the laste partis of erthe.
Nitasema na kaskazini, 'Wakabidhini wao; na kwa kusini, Usiangalie ya nyuma; Leteni vijana wangu kutoka mbali na binti zangu kutoka vijiji vya mikoani katika nchi,
7 And ech that clepith my name to help, in to my glorie Y made hym of nouyt; Y fourmyde hym, and made hym.
yeyote aitwe kw jina langu, niliyemuumba kwa utukufu wangu mwenyewe, Niliyemuumba, ndio, Mimi niliyemfanya.
8 Lede thou forth the blynde puple, and hauynge iyen; the deef puple, and eeris ben to it.
Waleteni nje watu ambao ni vipofu, hata kama wana macho, na viziwi, hata kama wana masikio.
9 Alle hethene men ben gaderid togidere, and lynagis be gaderid togidere. Who among you, who schal telle this, and schal make you to here tho thingis, that ben the firste? yyue thei witnessis of hem, and be thei iustified, and here thei, and seie.
Mataifa yote yatakusanyika kwa pamoja na watu watakusanyika. Ni nani miongoni mwenu atakaye tamka na kutangaza kutumia mambo ya mwanzo? Waache walete mashahidi kuwashuhudia wao kama wako sahihi, waache wasikilize na kuthibitisha, 'kama ni kweli'.
10 Verili ye ben my witnessis, seith the Lord, and my seruaunt, whom Y chees; that ye wite, and bileue to me, and vndurstonde, for Y mysilf am; bifore me is no God formere, and after me schal noon be.
Ninyi ni mashahidi wangu, ametangaza Yahwe, ''na watumishi wangu niliowachagua, ili uweze kujua na kuniamini mimi, na kuelewa kwamba mimi ndiye. Kabla yangu hapana mungu mwingine aliyeumbwa, na wala hatatoke baada yangu.
11 Y am, Y am the Lord, and with out me is no sauyour.
Mimi, Mimi Yahwe, na hakuna Mkombozi zaidi yangu.
12 I telde, and sauyde; Y made heryng, and noon alien God was among you. Ye ben my witnessis, seith the Lord;
Nimetangaza, nimeokoa, na kutangaza, na hakuna Mungu mwingine miongoni mwenu, Ninyi ni mashahidi wangu asema Yahwe, ''Mimi ni Mungu.
13 and Y am God fro the bigynnyng, Y my silf am, and noon is that delyuerith fro myn hoond; Y schal worche, and who schal distrie it?
Kuanzia leo na kuendelea mimi ndiye, na hakuna hata mmoja atakayewakomboa kwenye mkono wangu. Nitafanya, na nani awezae kunizuia?''
14 The Lord, youre ayenbiere, the hooli of Israel, seith these thingis, For you Y sente out in to Babiloyne, and Y drow doun alle barris, and Caldeis hauynge glorie in her schippis.
Yahwe asema hivi, Mkombozi wenu, yeye Mtakatifu wa Israeli: ''Kwa niaba yenu nimemtuma mjumbe kwenda Babeli na kuwaongoza wao wote chini kama watuhumiwa, kubadilisha kelele za furaha za watu wa Babeli' kuwa wimbo wa maombolezo.
15 Y am the Lord, youre hooli, youre king, makynge Israel of nouyt.
Mimi ni Yahwe, niliye Mtakatifu, Muumbaji wa Israeli, Mfalme wenu.
16 The Lord seith these thingis, that yaf weie in the see, and a path in rennynge watris;
Yahwe asema hivi, Ni nani aliyefungua njia katika bahari, na njia katika maji yenye nguvu,
17 which ledde out a carte, and hors, a cumpany, and strong man; thei slepten togidere, nether thei schulen rise ayen; thei ben al tobrokun as flex, and ben quenchid.
ni nani anayeongoza gari na farasi, majeshi na jeshi kuu. Walianguka chini kwa pamoja; hawakunyanyuka tena; wamezimwa, kama utambi unaoungua.
18 Thenke ye not on the formere thingis, and biholde ye not olde thingis.
Msifikirie hayo mambo yaliyopita, wala kuyafikiria mambo ya zamani.
19 Lo! Y make newe thingis, and now tho schulen bigynne to be maad; sotheli ye schulen know tho. Y schal sette weie in desert, and floodis in a lond without weie.
Tazama ninakaribia kufanya mambo mapya; sasa yanakaribia kutokea; Je humyajui haya? Nitafanya njia jangani na na mikondo ya maji katika jangwa
20 And a beeste of the feelde schal glorifie me, dragouns and ostrigis schulen glorifie me; for Y yaf watris in desert, and floodis in the lond without weie, that Y schulde yyue drynk to my puple, to my chosun puple.
Wanyama pori wa shambani wataniheshimu mimi, Mbweha na mbuni, kwa sababu ninatoa maji jangwani, na mito jangwani, ili watu wangu niliowachuga wapate kunjwa,
21 Y fourmyde this puple to me, it schal telle my preysyng.
Watu hawa niliowaumba mwenyewe, kwamba wahesabu tena sifa zangu.
22 Jacob, thou clepidist not me to help; and thou, Israel, trauelidist not for me.
Lakini hamjanita mimi, Yakobo; umechoka na mimi, Israeli.
23 Thou offridist not to me the ram of thi brent sacrifice, and thou glorifiedist not me with thi slayn sacrifices. Y made not thee to serue in offryng, nethir Y yaf to thee trauel in encense.
Haujaniletea hata kondoo wako kama sadaka ya kuteketeza; na wala haujaniheshimu mimi kwa sadaka yako Sijakutumisha wewe kwa sadaka ya mazao, wala sijawachosha kwa sadaka yenu ya ubani.
24 Thou bouytist not to me swete smellynge spicerie for siluer, and thou fillidist not me with fatnesse of thi slayn sacrifices; netheles thou madist me to serue in thi synnes, thou yauest trauel to me in thi wickidnessis.
Hamkuninunulia mimi manukato mazuri kwa fedha, hakumwagia mimi mafuta ya sadaka zenu; Lakini mnanichosha mimi na dhambi zenu na mnanichosha mimi kwa matendo yenu mabaya.
25 Y am, Y my silf am, that do awei thi wickidnessis for me, and Y schal not haue mynde on thy synnes.
Mimi, ndio, Mimi, ndiye niliyafaye maovu yenu kwa niaba yangu mmi mwenyewe; na Sitawaita na kuwakumbusha dhambi zenu tena.
26 Brynge me ayen in to mynde, and be we demyd togidere; telle thou, if thou hast ony thing, that thou be iustified.
Nikumbusheni mimi kilichotokea. Njooni tusemezane pamoja; leta hoja zako, ili kusudi uthibitishe kuwa hauna hatia.
27 Thi firste fadir synnede, and thin interpretours trespassiden ayens me.
Baba yako wa kwanza alitenda dhambi, na viongozi wenu walitenda dhambi dhidi yangu.
28 And Y made foul hooli princes, and Y yaf Jacob to deth, and Israel in to blasfemye.
Hivyo basi Nitawatia unajisi viongozi watakatifu; Nitamkabidhi Yakobo kuwaharibu kabisa, na Israeli kulaani udhalilishaji.
