< Isaiah 44 >

1 And now, hear, O Jacob, My servant, And Israel, whom I have fixed on:
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili fi! Na hawa: hamosu dunu! Na ilegei fi, Ya: igobe egaga fi! Nabima!
2 Thus said Jehovah, thy Maker, and thy Former, From the womb He doth help thee; Fear not, my servant Jacob, And Jeshurun, whom I have fixed on.
Na da Hina Gode. Na da dili hahamoi. Dilia lalelegei eso amola fa: no Na da dili fidisu. Mae beda: ma! Dilia da Na hawa: hamosu dunu amola Na dogolegei, ilegei dunu fi.
3 For I pour waters on a thirsty one, And floods on a dry land, I pour My Spirit on thy seed, And My blessing on thine offspring.
Na da hano hanai soge amoga hano imunu. Amola hafoga: i soge amo da: iya hano masa: ne hamomu. Na da Na gasa amo dilia mano ilima sogadigimu, amola diligaga fi ilima Na hahawane dogolegele iasu imunu.
4 And they have sprung up as among grass, As willows by streams of water.
Ilia da gisi amoga ilia da hano bagade iaha, agoaiwane alemu. Amola yodima ifa amo da hano gadenene lelebe agoaiwane alemu.
5 This [one] saith, For Jehovah I [am], And this calleth [himself] by the name of Jacob, And this [one] writeth [with] his hand, 'For Jehovah,' and by the name of Israel surnameth himself.
Dunu afae afae da amane sia: mu, “Na da Hina Gode Ea dunu.” Ilia da Isala: ili fi dunu ilima gilisima: ne misunu. Ilia huluane da afae afae Hina Gode Ea dio ilia loboga dedemu, amola ilia da afae afae “Na da Gode Ea fi ganodini esala” sia: mu.
6 Thus said Jehovah, king of Israel, And his Redeemer, Jehovah of Hosts: 'I [am] the first, and I the last, And besides Me there is no God.
Hina Gode da Isala: ili ouligisa amola gaga: sa. E da Hina Gode Bagadedafa, amola E da amane sia: sa, “Na da Hemosu amola Na da Dagosu. Eno ‘gode’ da hame, Ni fawane da Godedafa.
7 And who as I, doth call and declare it, And arrange it for Me, Since My placing the people of antiquity, And things that are coming, And those that do come, declare they to them?
Eno dunu da Na hamobe defele hamomu ganabela: ? Nowa da hou degabo hamoi asili, Fifi Ahoanusu amoga doaga: le, nowa da amo hou ba: ma: ne defele esalabala? Hamedei!
8 Fear not, nor be afraid, Have I not from that time caused thee to hear, and declared? And ye [are] My witnesses, Is there a God besides Me? yea, there is none, A Rock I have not known.
Na fi dunu! Mae beda: ma! Dilia dawa: ! Musa: hemoneganini, amo eso huluane ganodini hou Na da ba: la: lalu sia: i dagoi. Amola dilia da Na ba: su dunu. Eno ‘gode’ esalabala? Gasa bagade ‘gode’ amo Na da hame nabi, agoaiwane esalabala? Hame mabu!
9 Framers of a graven image [are] all of them emptiness, And their desirable things do not profit, And their own witnesses they [are], They see not, nor know, that they may be ashamed.
Nowa dunu da ‘gode’ liligi loboga hamosa da hamedei. Amola, ‘gode’ liligi amoga ilia nodosa, amo amola da hamedei. Nowa da amo ‘gode’ liligi ilima nodone sia: ne gadosea da si dofoi agoane amola hame dawa: su dunu. Ilia da gogosiasu ba: mu.
10 Who hath formed a god, And a molten image poured out — not profitable?
Dilia da ouli amoga loboga hamoi ‘gode’ ilima sia: ne gadoma: ne hamomu da defea hame galebe.
11 Lo, all his companions are ashamed, As to artisans — they [are] of men, All of them gather together, they stand up, They fear, they are ashamed together.
Nowa da agoaiwane liligi amoma nodone sia: ne gadosea da gogosiasu ba: mu. Dunu amo da loboga hamoi ‘gode’ hamosa da osobo bagade dunu fawane. Ilia da misini, fofada: mu da defea. Amasea, ilia beda: mu amola gogosiamu.
12 He hath wrought iron [with] an axe, And hath wrought with coals, And with hammers doth form it, And doth work it by his powerful arm, Yea, he is hungry, and there is no power, He doth not drink water, and he is wearied.
Ouli hahamosu dunu da ouli afae lale, laluga gobele hahamosa. E da ea gasa lobo amoga ouli ha: maga fane, hahamosa. E da hawa: hamobeba: le, ha: i naba amola hano hanasa hele naba.
13 He hath wrought [with] wood, He hath stretched out a rule, He doth mark it out with a line, He maketh it with carving tools, And with a compass he marketh it out, And maketh it according to the form of a man, According to the beauty of a man, To remain in the house.
Diasu gagusu dunu da ifa ea defei ba: sa. E da dunu ea da: i hodo defele amo ifaga dedesa. E da gobihei amoga ifa sagane, e da amo ifa hamone, dunu noga: i ea da: i hodo agoane hamone, ea diasu ganodini ligisisa.
14 Cutting down to himself cedars, He taketh also a cypress, and an oak, And he strengtheneth [it] for himself Among the trees of a forest, He hath planted an ash, and the shower doth nourish [it].
E da dolo ifa abasea, hamosa. O e da “saibalase” o “ouge” ifa amoga hamosa. O e da “lolele” ifa bugili, gibu dasea amo ifa alema: ne ouesala.
15 And it hath been for man to burn, And he taketh of them, and becometh warm, Yea, he kindleth [it], and hath baked bread, Yea, he maketh a god, and boweth himself, He hath made it a graven image, And he falleth down to it.
Ifa abasea, e da la: idi lale, lalu didisa. Eno la: idi amoga e da ‘gode’ agoaila hamosa. La: idi afae e da ea da: i dogoloma: ne amola ea ha: i manu gobema: ne, e da lalu didisa. Eno la: idi amoga e da ‘gode’ liligi hamone, amoma nodone sia: ne gadosa.
16 Half of it he hath burnt in the fire, By [this] half of it he eateth flesh, He roasteth a roasting, and is satisfied, Yea, he is warm, and saith: 'Aha, I have become warm, I have enjoyed the light.
Amo ifa mogili e da lalu didili, ohe hu gobele nanu, sadi ba: sa. E da ea da: i dogolole, amane sia: sa, “Defea! Na da hahawane noga: le dogoloi dagoi.”
17 And its remnant for a god he hath made — For his graven image, He falleth down to it, and worshippeth, And prayeth unto it, and he saith, 'Deliver me, for my god thou [art].'
Be ifa la: idi eno amoga e da ogogosu ‘gode’ liligi hamone, amoma beguduli nodone sia: ne gadosa. E da amo liligi amoga sia: ne gadole, amane sia: sa, “Di da na ‘gode’. Dia na gaga: ma!”
18 They have not known, nor do they understand, For He hath daubed their eyes from seeing, Their heart from acting wisely.
Agoai dunu da gagaouiba: le, ilila: hamobe hame dawa: Ilisu da dafawane hou mae dawa: ma: ne, ilila: si wadela: sa.
19 And none doth turn [it] back unto his heart, Nor hath knowledge nor understanding to say, 'Half of it I have burned in the fire, Yea, also, I have baked bread over its coals, I roast flesh and I eat, And its remnant for an abomination I make, To the stock of a tree I fall down.'
Loboga hamoi ‘gode’ hamosu dunu da asigi dawa: su hame gala. E da dawa: lai ganiaba, e da amane sia: na: noba, “Ifa la: idi amoga na da lalu didi. Na da lalu nasubu amoga agi ga: gi gobei amola ohe hu gobele mai. Amo mogili diala amoga na da ‘gode’ liligi hamoi. Amola, wali na da ifa amoma fawane begudulala.”
20 Feeding on ashes, the heart is deceived, It hath turned him aside, And he delivereth not his soul, nor saith: 'Is there not a lie in my right hand?'
Amo hou da gagaoui dunu nasubu nana agoai ba: sa, hamedei. E da ea gagaoui asigi dawa: su amoga fa: no bobogebeba: le, e fidimu hamedei agoai ba: sa. E da amo ‘gode’ (amo da ‘gode’ hame), hima sia: mu gogolesa.
21 Remember these, O Jacob, and Israel, For My servant thou [art], I formed thee, a servant to Me thou [art], O Israel, thou dost not forget Me.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Isala: ili fi! Amo noga: le dawa: ma! Dilia da Na hawa: hamosu dunu, amo dawa: ma! Dilia da Na hawa: hamosu dunu esaloma: ne, Na dili hahamoi. Amola, Na da dili hamedafa gogolemu.
22 I have blotted out, as [by] a thick cloud, Thy transgressions, And as [by] a cloud thy sins, Return unto Me, for I have redeemed thee.
Na da dilia wadela: i hou, mu mobi agoane doga: i dagoi. Nama buhagima! Na fawane da dilia Gaga: su dunu.”
23 Sing, O heavens, for Jehovah hath wrought, Shout, O lower parts of earth, Break forth, O mountains, with singing, Forest, and every tree in it, For Jehovah hath redeemed Jacob, And in Israel He doth beautify Himself.
Dilia mu! Hahawaneba: le, ha: giwane wele sia: ma! Osobo bagade hagudu soge! Di amola wele sia: ma! Goumi amola iwila ifa huluane! Dilia amola hahawaneba: le wele sia: ma! Hina Gode da Ea fi dunu Isala: ili gaga: i dagoiba: le, Ea gasa bagade hou olelei dagoi.
24 Thus said Jehovah, thy redeemer, And thy framer from the womb: 'I [am] Jehovah, doing all things, Stretching out the heavens by Myself, Spreading out the earth — who [is] with Me?
Na da Hina Gode, dilia Gaga: su dunu. Na da dili hahamoi dagoi. Na da Hina Gode, liligi huluane Hahamosu dunu esala. Ni fawane da mu hahamoi. Na da osobo bagade hahamobeba: le, dunu eno da Na hame fidi.
25 Making void the tokens of devisers, And diviners it maketh mad, Turning the wise backward, And their knowledge it maketh foolish.
Na hamobeba: le, ogogosu ba: la: lusu dunu da gagaoui ba: sa. Dunu eno da gasumuni ba: sea, hobea misunu hou olelesa, amo ilia ba: i liligi Na da afadenesa. Na da bagade dawa: su dunu ilia sia: hedofasa, amola ilia bagade dawa: su hou da gagaoui fawane, amo eno dunuma olelesa.
26 Confirming the word of His servant, The counsel of His messengers it perfecteth, Who is saying of Jerusalem, She is inhabited, And of cities of Judah, They shall be built, and her wastes I raise up,
Be Na hawa: hamosu dunu da hobea misunu hou olelesea, amola Na da sia: ne iasu dunu amo Na ilegesu olelema: ne asunasisia, Na da amo hobea misunu hou ba: la: lu amola amo ilegesu dafawane ba: ma: ne hamosa. Na da Yelusaleme amo ganodini dunu da bu esalumu, Na da Yelusaleme fi ilima sia: sa. Amola Yuda moilai huluane wali mugului diala, da wa: legadole bu buga: le gagui dagoi ba: mu, Na da amo sia: sa.
27 Who is saying to the deep, Be dry, and thy rivers I cause to dry up,
Na da sia: afae fawane sia: sea, hano wayabo bagade da hafoga: i dagoi ba: sa.
28 Who is saying of Cyrus, My shepherd, And all my delight He doth perfect, So as to say of Jerusalem, Thou art built, And of the temple, Thou art founded.
Na da Sailasema amane sia: sa, “Di da Na ouligisu dunu esalumu. Di da Na hanai hamomu. Dia sia: beba: le, Yelusaleme da bu gagui dagoi ba: mu. Amola dia sia: beba: le, Debolo Diasu ea bai da bu legei dagoi ba: mu.”
