Isaiah 55
1 Alle that thirsten, come ye to watris, and ye han not siluer, haaste, bie ye, and ete ye; come ye, bie ye, with out siluer and with outen ony chaungyng, wyn and mylk.
“Njooni, ninyi nyote wenye kiu, njooni kwenye maji; nanyi ambao hamna fedha, njooni, nunueni na mle! Njooni, nunueni divai na maziwa bila fedha na bila gharama.
2 Whi peisen ye siluer, and not in looues, and youre trauel, not in fulnesse? Ye herynge here me, and ete ye good, and youre soule schal delite in fatnesse.
Kwa nini kutumia fedha kwa kitu ambacho si chakula, na kutaabikia kitu kisichoshibisha? Sikilizeni, nisikilizeni mimi na mle kilicho kizuri, nazo nafsi zenu zitafurahia utajiri wa unono.
3 Bowe ye youre eere, and `come ye to me; here ye, and youre soule schal lyue; and Y schal smyte with you a couenaunt euerlastynge, the feithful mercies of Dauid.
Tegeni sikio mje kwangu, nisikieni mimi, ili nafsi zenu zipate kuishi. Nitafanya agano la milele nanyi, pendo la uaminifu nililomwahidi Daudi.
4 Lo! Y yaf hym a witnesse to puplis, a duyk and a comaundour to folkis.
Tazama, nimemfanya kuwa shahidi wa mataifa, kiongozi na jemadari wa mataifa.
5 Lo! thou schalt clepe folkis, whiche thou knewist not; and folkis, that knewen not thee, schulen renne to thee; for thi Lord God, and the hooli of Israel, for he glorifiede thee.
Hakika utaita mataifa usiyoyajua, nayo mataifa yale yasiyokujua yataharakisha kukujia, kwa sababu ya Bwana Mungu wako, yeye Aliye Mtakatifu wa Israeli, kwa maana amekutukuza.”
6 Seke ye the Lord, while he mai be foundun; clepe ye hym to help, while he is niy.
Mtafuteni Bwana maadamu anapatikana; mwiteni maadamu yu karibu.
7 An vnfeithful man forsake his weie, and a wickid man forsake hise thouytis; and turne he ayen to the Lord, and he schal haue merci on hym, and to oure God, for he is myche to foryyue.
Mtu mwovu na aiache njia yake, na mtu mbaya na ayaache mawazo yake. Yeye na amrudie Bwana, naye atamrehemu, arudi kwa Mungu wetu, kwa kuwa atamsamehe bure kabisa.
8 For why my thouytis ben not youre thouytis, and my weies ben not youre weies, seith the Lord.
“Kwa kuwa mawazo yangu si mawazo yenu, wala njia zenu si njia zangu,” asema Bwana.
9 For as heuenys ben reisid fro erthe, so my weies ben reisid fro youre weies, and my thouytis fro youre thouytis.
“Kama vile mbingu zilivyo juu kuliko dunia, ndivyo njia zangu zilivyo juu kuliko njia zenu na mawazo yangu kuliko mawazo yenu.
10 And as reyn and snow cometh doun fro heuene, and turneth no more ayen thidur, but it fillith the erthe, and bischedith it, and makith it to buriowne, and yyueth seed to hym that sowith, and breed to hym that etith,
Kama vile mvua na theluji ishukavyo kutoka mbinguni, nayo hairudi tena huko bila kunywesha dunia na kuichipusha na kuistawisha, hivyo hutoa mbegu kwa mpanzi na mkate kwa mlaji,
11 so schal be my word, that schal go out of my mouth. It schal not turne ayen voide to me, but it schal do what euer thingis Y wolde, and it schal haue prosperite in these thingis to whiche Y sente it.
ndivyo lilivyo neno langu lile litokalo kinywani mwangu: Halitanirudia tupu, bali litatimiliza lile nililokusudia na litafanikiwa katika kusudi lile nililolituma.
12 For ye schulen go out in gladnesse, and ye schulen be led forth in pees; mounteyns and litil hillis schulen synge heriynge bifore you, and alle the trees of the cuntrei schulen make ioie with hond.
Mtatoka nje kwa furaha na kuongozwa kwa amani; milima na vilima vitapaza sauti kwa nyimbo mbele yenu, nayo miti yote ya shambani itapiga makofi.
13 A fir tre schal grow for a firse, and a mirte tre schal wexe for a nettil; and the Lord schal be nemyd in to a signe euerlastynge, that schal not be doon awei.
Badala ya kichaka cha miiba itaota miti ya misunobari, na badala ya michongoma utaota mhadasi. Hili litakuwa jambo la kumpatia Bwana jina, kwa ajili ya ishara ya milele, ambayo haitaharibiwa.”
