< Isaiah 57 >

1 A iust man perischith, and noon is, that thenkith in his herte; and men of merci ben gaderid togidere, for noon is that vndurstondith; for whi a iust man is gaderid fro the face of malice.
Mwenye haki hupotea, wala hakuna hata mmoja awazaye hilo moyoni mwake; watu wanaomcha Mungu huondolewa, wala hakuna hata mmoja anayeelewa kuwa wenye haki wameondolewa ili wasipatikane na maovu.
2 Pees come, reste he in his bed, that yede in his dressyng.
Wale waendao kwa unyofu huwa na amani; hupata pumziko walalapo mautini.
3 But ye, sones of the sekere of fals dyuynyng bi chiteryng of briddys, neiye hidur, the seed of auowtresse, and of an hoore.
“Lakini ninyi: Njooni hapa, ninyi wana wa wachawi, ninyi wazao wa wazinzi na makahaba!
4 On whom scorneden ye? on whom maden ye greet the mouth, and puttiden out the tunge? Whethir ye ben not cursid sones, a seed of leesyngis?
Mnamdhihaki nani? Ni nani mnayemcheka kwa dharau, na kumtolea ndimi zenu? Je, ninyi si watoto wa waasi, uzao wa waongo?
5 which ben coumfortid in goddis, vndur ech tree ful of bowis, and offren litle children in strondis, vndur hiye stoonys.
Mnawaka tamaa katikati ya mialoni na chini ya kila mti uliotanda matawi; mnawatoa kafara watoto wenu kwenye mabonde na chini ya majabali yenye mianya.
6 Thi part is in the partis of the stronde, this is thi part; and to tho thou scheddist out moist offryng, thou offridist sacrifice. Whether Y schal not haue indignacioun on these thingis?
“Sanamu zilizo katikati ya mawe laini ya mabondeni ndizo fungu lenu; hizo ndizo sehemu yenu. Naam, kwa hizo mmemimina sadaka za vinywaji, na kutoa sadaka za nafaka. Katika haya yote, niendelee kuona huruma?
7 Thou puttidist thi bed on an hiy hil and enhaunsid, and thidur thou stiedist to offre sacrifices;
Umeweka kitanda chako juu kwenye kilima kirefu kilichoinuka, huko ulikwenda kutoa dhabihu zako.
8 and thou settidist thi memorial bihynde the dore, and bihynde the post. For bisidis me thou vnhilidist, and tokist auouter; thou alargidist thi bed, and madist a boond of pees with hem; thou louedist the bed of hem with openyd hond,
Nyuma ya milango yako na miimo yako umeweka alama zako za kipagani. Kwa kuniacha mimi, ulifunua kitanda chako, umepanda juu yake na kukipanua sana; ulifanya patano na wale ambao unapenda vitanda vyao, nawe uliangalia uchi wao.
9 and ournedist thee with kyngis oynement, and thou multipliedist thi pymentis; thou sentist fer thi messangeris, and thou art maad low `til to hellis. (Sheol h7585)
Ulikwenda kwa Moleki ukiwa na mafuta ya zeituni, na ukaongeza manukato yako. Ukawatuma wajumbe wako mbali sana, ukashuka kwenye kaburi lenyewe! (Sheol h7585)
10 Thou trauelidist in the multitude of thi weie, and seidist not, Y schal reste; thou hast founde the weie of thin hond,
Ulikuwa umechoshwa na njia zako zote, lakini hukusema, ‘Hakuna tumaini.’ Ulipata uhuisho wa nguvu zako, kwa sababu hiyo hukuzimia.
11 therfor thou preiedist not. For what thing dreddist thou bisy, for thou liedist, and thouytist not on me? And thou thouytist not in thin herte, that Y am stille, and as not seynge; and thou hast foryete me.
“Ni nani uliyemhofu hivyo na kumwogopa hata ukawa mwongo kwangu, wala hukunikumbuka au kutafakari hili moyoni mwako? Si ni kwa sababu nimekuwa kimya muda mrefu hata huniogopi?
12 Y schal telle thi riytfulnesse, and thi werkis schulen not profite to thee.
Nitaifunua haki yako na matendo yako, nayo hayatakufaidi.
13 Whanne thou schalt crie, thi gaderid tresours delyuere thee; and the wynd schal take awei alle tho, a blast schal do awei hem; but he that hath trist on me, schal enherite the lond, and schal haue in possessioun myn hooli hil.
Utakapolia kwa kuhitaji msaada, sanamu zako ulizojikusanyia na zikuokoe! Upepo utazipeperusha zote, pumzi peke yake itazipeperusha, Lakini mtu atakayenifanya kimbilio lake, atairithi nchi na kuumiliki mlima wangu mtakatifu.”
14 And Y schal seie, Make ye weie, yyue ye iurney, bowe ye fro the path, do ye awei hirtyngis fro the weie of my puple.
Tena itasemwa: “Jengeni, jengeni, itengenezeni njia! Ondoeni vikwazo katika njia ya watu wangu.”
15 For the Lord hiy, and enhaunsid, seith these thingis, that dwellith in euerlastyngnesse, and his hooli name in hiy place, and that dwellith in hooli, and with a contrite and meke spirit, that he quykene the spirit of meke men, and quykene the herte of contrit men.
Kwa maana hili ndilo asemalo Aliye juu, yeye aliyeinuliwa sana, yeye aishiye milele, ambaye jina lake ni Mtakatifu: “Ninaishi mimi mahali palipoinuka na patakatifu, lakini pia pamoja na yeye aliye na roho iliyotubu na mwenye roho ya unyenyekevu, ili kuzihuisha roho za wanyenyekevu na kuihuisha mioyo yao waliotubu.
16 For Y schal not stryue with outen ende, nether Y schal be wrooth `til to the ende; for whi a spirit schal go out fro my face, and Y schal make blastis.
Sitaendelea kulaumu milele, wala sitakasirika siku zote, kwa kuwa roho ya mwanadamu ingezimia mbele zangu: yaani pumzi ya mwanadamu niliyemuumba.
17 Y was wrooth for the wickidnesse of his aueryce, and Y smoot hym. Y hidde my face fro thee, and Y hadde indignacioun; and he yede with out stidfast dwellyng, in the weie of his herte.
Nilighadhibika na tamaa yake ya dhambi; nilimwadhibu, nikauficha uso wangu kwa hasira, na bado aliendelea katika njia zake za tamaa.
18 Y siy hise weies, and Y helide hym, and Y brouyte hym ayen; and Y yaf coumfortyngis to hym, and to the moreneris of hym.
Nimeziona njia zake, lakini nitamponya, nitamwongoza na kumrudishia upya faraja,
19 Y made the fruyt of lippis pees, pees to hym that is fer, and to hym that is niy, seide the Lord; and Y heelide hym.
nikiumba sifa midomoni ya waombolezaji katika Israeli. Amani, amani, kwa wale walio mbali na kwa wale walio karibu,” asema Bwana. “Nami nitawaponya.”
20 But wickid men ben as the buyling see, that may not reste; and the wawis therof fleten ayen in to defoulyng, and fen.
Bali waovu ni kama bahari ichafukayo, ambayo haiwezi kutulia, mawimbi yake hutupa takataka na matope.
21 The Lord God seide, Pees is not to wickid men.
Mungu wangu asema, “Hakuna amani kwa waovu.”
