Isaiah 63
1 Who is this that cometh fro Edom, in died clothis fro Bosra? this fair man in his `long cloth, goynge in the multitude of his vertu? Y that speke riytfulnesse, and am a forfiytere for to saue.
Ni nani ajaye kutoka Edomu, aliyevaa mavazi rangi nyekundu kutoka Bozra? Ni nani aliye katika mavazi ya kifahari, anayetembea kwa kujiamini kwa sababu ya ukuu wa nguvu zake? Ndiye mimi, nizungumzae haki na uwezo mkubwa wa kuokoa.
2 Whi therfor is thi clothing reed? and thi clothis ben as of men stampynge in a pressour?
Kwa nini umevaa mavazi ya rangi nyekundu, na kwan nini wanaonekana kama akanyagae mizabibu katika vyombo vyake.
3 Y aloone stampide the presse, and of folkis no man is with me; Y stampide hem in my stronge veniaunce, and Y defoulide hem in my wraththe; and her blood is spreynt on my clothis, and Y made foul alle my clothis.
Nimekanyaga zabibu lililoko katika vyombo vyenyewe, na hakuna hata mmoja kutoka mataifa aliyeungana na mimi. Niliwakanyaga kwa hasira yangu na niliwakanyaga wao kwa hasira yangu. Damu zao zimeruka katika nguo zangu na kuweka madoa nguo zangu zote.
4 For whi a dai of veniaunce is in myn herte, and the yeer of my yeldyng cometh.
Maana niliangalia mbele katika siku ya kisasi, na mwaka wa ukombozi ulikwishawadia.
5 I lokide aboute, and noon helpere was; Y souyte, and noon was that helpide; and myn arm sauyde to me, and myn indignacioun, that helpide me.
Mimi nilitazama, na hapo hapakuwa na mtu mmoja hata wa kutoa msaada, lakini mkono wangu mwenywe uliniletea ushindi mimi, na hasira yangu kubwa iliniongoza mimi.
6 And Y defoulide puplis in my stronge veniaunce; and Y made hem drunkun in myn indignacioun, and Y drow doun her vertu in to erthe.
Niliwakanyaga watu wangu chini kwa hasira yangu na kuwafanya wao wanywe laana yangu, na nilimwaga damu zao juu ya nchi.
7 I schal haue mynde on the merciful doyngis of the Lord, Y schal preche the heriyng of the Lord on alle thingis whiche the Lord yeldide to vs, and on the multitude `of goodis of the hous of Israel, whiche he yaf to hem bi his foryyuenesse, and bi the multitude of hise mercies.
Nitakusimulia matendo ya agano la Yahwe lenye kuaminika, matendo ya kusifu ya Yahwe. Nitawasimulia yote ambayo Yahwe ametutendea sisi, na ukuu wa uzuri wake katika nyumba ya Israeli. Huruma hii aliyetuonyesha sisi kwa sababu ya rehema zake na matendo ya agano lake la kuaminika.
8 And the Lord seide, Netheles it is my puple, sones not denyynge, and he was maad a sauyour to hem in al the tribulacioun of hem.
Maana alisema, ''Baadhi yao ni watu wangu, watoto ambao sio waaminifu.'' Amekuwa mwokozi wao.
9 It was not set in tribulacioun, and the aungel of his face sauyde hem. In his loue and in his foryyuenesse he ayenbouyte hem, and he bar hem, and reiside hem in alle daies of the world.
Kupitia mateso yao yote, aliteseka pia, na malaika kutoka mbele yake aliwaokoa wao. Katika upendo wake na rehema aliwakomboa wao, na aliwanyanyua juu na aliwabeba wote katika kipindi chote cha kale.
10 Forsothe thei excitiden hym to wrathfulnesse, and turmentiden the spirit of his hooli; and he was turned in to an enemye to hem, and he ouercam hem in batel.
Lakini walimuasi na kumuuzunisha roho mtakatifu. Hivyo basi akkawa adui wao na kupigana dhidi yao.
11 And he hadde mynde on the daies of the world, of Moises, and of his puple. Where is he, that ledde hem out of the see, with the scheepherdis of his floc? Where is he, that settide the spirit of his holi in the myddil therof;
Watu wake walifikiri kuhushu nyakati za kale za Musa. Walisema, ''Yuko wapi Mungu, aliyewaleta juu nje ya bahari pamoja na mchungaji wa kundi lake? Yuko wapi Mungu, ambaye aliyeweka roho mtakatifu mwiongoni mwenu?
12 whiche ledde out Moises to the riyt half in the arm of his maieste? which departide watris bifore hem, that he schulde make to hym silf a name euerlastynge;
Yuko wapi Mungu, aliyeufanya wingi wa utukufu wake kwenda katika mkono wa kuume wa Musa, na ukaganya maji mbele yao, kulifanya jina lake milele yeye mwenyewe?
13 whiche ledde hem out thoruy depthis of watris, as an hors not stumblynge in desert,
Yuko wapi Mungu, aliyewaongoza katika maji mengi? Kama farasi anayekimbia kwenye aridhi ambayo ni tambarare, hawakua na mashaka.
14 as a beeste goynge doun in the feeld? The Spirit of the Lord was the ledere therof; so thou leddist thi puple, that thou madist to thee a name of glorie.
Kama ng'ombe anayeshuka chini kwenye bonde, Roho ya Yahwe imewapa punziko. Hivyo umewaongoza watu wako, kufanya wewe mwenyewe jina la kusifu.
15 Biholde thou fro heuene, and se fro thin hooli dwellyng place, and fro the seete of thi glorie. Where is thi feruent loue, and thi strengthe, the multitude of thin entrailis, and of thi merciful doyngis?
Tazama chini kutoka mbinguni na pata taarifa kutoka kwenye makao ya utukufu wako. Iko wapi bidii yenu na matendo makuu? Uruatendo yako ya uruma yamezuiliwaa kutoka kwetu.
16 Tho withelden hem silf on me. Forsothe thou art oure fadir, and Abraham knew not vs, and Israel knew not vs.
Maana wewe n baba yetu, Japokuwa Ibrahimu hatujui sisi, na Israeli haitutambui sisi, wewe, Yahwe, wewe ni baba yetu. Mkombozi wetu limekuwa jina lako kutoka nyakati za kale.
17 Thou, Lord, art oure fadir, and oure ayenbiere; thi name is fro the world. Lord, whi hast thou maad vs to erre fro thi weies? thou hast made hard oure herte, that we dredden not thee? be thou conuertid, for thi seruauntis, the lynages of thin eritage.
Yahwe, kwa nini unatufanya tangetange na kuifanya mioyo yetu kuwa migumu, hivyo hatukukuheshimu wewe? Rudi kwa niaba ya watumishi wako, kabila la urithi wako.
18 Thei hadden as nouyt thin hooli puple in possessioun, and oure enemyes defouliden thin halewyng.
Watu wako walirithi mahali patakatifu kwa mda mfupi, halafu maadui zetu waliwakanyaga.
19 We ben maad as in the bigynnyng, whanne thou were not Lord of vs, nethir thi name was clepid to help on vs.
Tumekuwa kama juu ya wale ambao hawajawai kuongoza, kama wale ambao hawajaitwa kwa jina lako.
