Isaiah 19
1 The burden of Egypt. Lo, Jehovah is riding on a swift thick cloud, And He hath entered Egypt, And moved have been the idols of Egypt at His presence, And the heart of Egypt melteth in its midst.
Ĩno nĩ ndũmĩrĩri nditũ ĩkoniĩ bũrũri wa Misiri: Atĩrĩrĩ, Jehova ahaicĩte itu rĩhanyũkĩte mũno athiĩte bũrũri wa Misiri. Mĩhianano ya bũrũri wa Misiri irainaina mbere yake, nacio ngoro cia andũ a bũrũri wa Misiri ikaringĩka thĩinĩ wao.
2 And I armed Egyptians against Egyptians, And they fought, each against his brother, And each against his neighbour, City against city, kingdom against kingdom.
“Nĩngarahũra Mũmisiri ookĩrĩre Mũmisiri ũrĩa ũngĩ: mũndũ nĩakarũa na mũrũ wa ithe, nake mũndũ wa itũũra ookĩrĩre mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake, narĩo itũũra inene rĩũkĩrĩre itũũra rĩrĩa rĩngĩ, naguo ũthamaki ũũkĩrĩre ũthamaki ũrĩa ũngĩ.
3 And emptied out hath been in its midst the spirit of Egypt. And its counsel I swallow up, And they have sought unto the idols, And unto the charmers, And unto those having familiar spirits, And unto the wizards.
Andũ a bũrũri wa Misiri nĩmagakua ngoro, nayo mĩbango yao ndĩmĩtue ya tũhũ; makaahooya kĩrĩra kũrĩ ngai cia mĩhianano na kũrĩ maroho ma andũ arĩa makuĩte, o na kũrĩ ago na aragũri.
4 And I have delivered the Egyptians Into the hand of a hard lord, And a strong king doth rule over them, An affirmation of the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts.
Nĩnganeana andũ a bũrũri wa Misiri wathani-inĩ wa mwathi ũtarĩ tha, na mũthamaki mũũru amathamakĩre,” ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga.
5 And failed have waters from the sea, And a river is wasted and dried up.
Maaĩ ma Rũũĩ rwa Nili nĩmakaahũa, na mũkaro waruo ũngʼare na ũũme.
6 And they have turned away the flowings, Weak and dried up have been brooks of the bulwark, Reed and flag have withered.
Mĩtaro ya maaĩ nĩĩkanunga; tũrũũĩ twa Misiri nĩtũkaahũa tũũme biũ. Namo marura na mathanjĩ nĩmakahooha,
7 Exposed things by the brook, by the edge of the brook, And every sown thing of the brook, hath withered, It hath been driven away, and is not.
o nayo mĩmera ĩrĩa ĩrĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Rũũĩ rwa Nili, gĩtwe-inĩ kĩa rũũĩ rũu, nĩĩkahooha. Indo iria ciothe ĩhaandĩtwo mĩgũnda ĩrĩa ĩrĩ gũkuhĩ na Rũũĩ rwa Nili nĩikooma biũ, na ciũmbũrwo, na itigacooka kuoneka kuo rĩngĩ.
8 And lamented have the fishers, And mourned have all casting angle into a brook, And those spreading nets on the face of the waters have languished.
Ategi a thamaki nĩmagacaaya na marĩre, arĩa othe maikagia ndwano ciao Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Nili; nao arĩa othe maikagia mĩtego yao maaĩ-inĩ macio nĩmakoorwo nĩ hinya.
9 And ashamed have been makers of fine flax, And weavers of net-works.
Andũ arĩa marutaga wĩra na ndigi cia ũguta ũrĩa mwega nĩmagakua ngoro, na arĩa matumaga mataama marĩa mahoro nĩmakaaga mwĩhoko.
10 And its foundations have been smitten, All making wages [are] afflicted in soul.
Atumi a nguo nĩmagakorwo na kĩeha, na arĩa othe maheagwo mĩcaara nĩmakaigua ũũru ngoro.
11 Only, fools [are] the princes of Zoan, The counsel of the wise ones of the counsellors of Pharaoh hath become brutish. How say ye unto Pharaoh, 'A son of the wise am I, a son of kings of antiquity?'
Anene a Zoani nĩmakĩĩgĩte o gũkĩĩga; nao andũ arĩa oogĩ a Firaũni maheanaga kĩrĩra kĩa ũrimũ. Mwakĩhota atĩa kwĩra Firaũni, “Niĩ ndĩ ũmwe wa andũ arĩa oogĩ, ndĩ mũrutwo wa athamaki arĩa a tene?”
12 Where [are] they now, thy wise ones? Yea, let them tell to thee, I pray thee, And they know what Jehovah of Hosts hath counselled against Egypt!
Andũ aku arĩa oogĩ makĩrĩ ha rĩu? Ta nĩmagĩkuonie na makũmenyithie ũrĩa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe aciirĩire gwĩka bũrũri wa Misiri.
13 Foolish have been princes of Zoan, Lifted up have been princes of Noph, And they have caused Egypt to err, The chief of her tribes.
Anene a Zoani makĩĩgĩte o gũkĩĩga, nao atongoria a Nofu makaheeneka; namo mahiga ma koine ma andũ ake nĩmahĩtithĩtie andũ a Misiri.
14 Jehovah hath mingled in her midst A spirit of perverseness, And they have caused Egypt to err in all its work, As a drunkard erreth in his vomit.
Jehova nĩwe ũmaitĩrĩirie roho wa kĩrigiicano; matũmaga andũ a Misiri matũgũũge mawĩra-inĩ mothe marĩa marutaga, o ta ũrĩa mũrĩĩu atũgũũgaga matahĩko-inĩ make.
15 And there is no work to Egypt, That head or tail, branch or reed, may do.
Gũtirĩ wĩra ũngĩrutwo bũrũri-inĩ wa Misiri: gũtirĩ wĩra ũngĩrutwo nĩ mũtwe kana mũtingʼoe, kana rũhonge rwa mũnathi, kana ithanjĩ.
16 In that day is Egypt like women, And it hath mourned, and been afraid, Because of the waving of the hand of Jehovah of Hosts, That He is waving over it.
Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, andũ a Misiri makahaana o ta andũ-a-nja. Makainaina nĩ guoya mona guoko kwa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe kwambararĩtio kũmookĩrĩre.
17 And the land of Judah hath been to Egypt for a cause of staggering, Every one who doth mention it, for himself feareth, Because of the counsel of Jehovah of Hosts, That He is counselling against it.
Naguo bũrũri wa Juda ũkaguoyohia andũ a Misiri; na mũndũ o wothe ũkaagweterwo ũhoro wa Juda nĩagetigĩra, nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ marĩa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe aciirĩire gwĩka amokĩrĩre.
18 In that day there are five cities in the land of Egypt, Speaking the lip of Canaan, And swearing to Jehovah of Hosts, 'The city of destruction,' is said of one.
Mũthenya ũcio matũũra matano ma bũrũri wa Misiri makaaragia rũthiomi rwa Kaanani, makĩĩhĩtaga atĩ marĩtungatagĩra Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe. Na itũũra rĩmwe rĩamo rĩgeetagwo Itũũra Inene rĩa Mwanangĩko.
19 In that day there is an altar to Jehovah In the midst of the land of Egypt, And a standing pillar near its border to Jehovah,
Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, nĩgũkagĩa na kĩgongona kĩa Jehova o kũu gatagatĩ ka bũrũri wa Misiri, na kũhaandwo ihiga rĩa kĩririkano kĩa Jehova mĩhaka-inĩ yakuo.
20 And it hath been for a sign and for a testimony, To Jehovah of Hosts in the land of Egypt, For they cry unto Jehovah from the face of oppressors, And He sendeth to them a saviour, Even a great one, and hath delivered them.
Ihiga rĩu rĩgaatuĩka kĩmenyithia na mũira wa maũndũ marĩa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekĩte thĩinĩ wa bũrũri ũcio wa Misiri. Rĩrĩa magaakaĩra Jehova amateithie nĩ ũndũ wa andũ arĩa mamahinyagĩrĩria-rĩ, nĩakamatũmĩra mũhonokia na mũmagitĩri, nake nĩakamahonokia.
21 And known hath been Jehovah to Egypt, And the Egyptians have known Jehovah in that day, And done sacrifice and present, And vowed a vow to Jehovah, and completed [it].
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova nĩakemenyithania kũrĩ andũ a Misiri, na mũthenya ũcio nĩmagakũũrana Jehova. Makaamũhooyaga makĩmũrutagĩra magongona na maruta ma mũtu: na ningĩ makehĩtaga mĩĩhĩtwa marĩ mbere ya Jehova na mamĩhingagie.
22 And Jehovah hath smitten Egypt, smiting and healing, And they have turned back unto Jehovah, And He hath been entreated of them, And hath healed them.
Jehova nĩakahũũra bũrũri wa Misiri na mũthiro, amahũũre acooke amahonie. Nao nĩmagacookerera Jehova, nake nĩagathikĩrĩria gũthaithana kwao na amahonie.
23 In that day is a highway out of Egypt to Asshur, And come in have the Assyrians to Egypt, And the Egyptians into Asshur, And the Egyptians have served with the Assyrians.
Mũthenya ũcio nĩgũkagĩa njĩra njariĩ yumĩte bũrũri wa Misiri ĩgakinya Ashuri. Andũ a Ashuri nĩmagathiiaga Misiri, na o andũ a Misiri mathiiage Ashuri. Andũ a Misiri na andũ a Ashuri nĩmakahooyaga hamwe.
24 In that day is Israel third, After Egypt, and after Asshur, A blessing in the heart of the earth.
Mũthenya ũcio bũrũri wa Isiraeli ũgaatuĩka wa gatatũ, hamwe na Misiri na Ashuri, nao nĩmagatũma thĩ yothe ĩrathimwo.
25 In that Jehovah of Hosts did bless it, saying, 'Blessed [is] My people — Egypt, And the work of My hands — Asshur, And Mine inheritance — Israel!'
Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩakamarathima akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ andũ akwa a Misiri, o na Aashuri arĩa ndeyũmbĩire, na Isiraeli igai rĩakwa.”
