Isaiah 46
1 Bowed down hath Bel, stooping is Nebo, Their idols have been for the beast and for cattle, Your burdens are loaded, a burden to the weary.
Atĩrĩrĩ, Beli nĩĩinamĩrĩire, nayo Nebo ĩkahocerera; mĩhianano yacio ya kũhooywo ĩkuuagwo nĩ nyamũ cia mũtitũ o na ngʼombe. Mĩhianano ĩyo mĩacũhie ĩkuuagwo kũndũ na kũndũ nĩĩtuĩkĩte mĩrigo mĩritũ, mĩrigo ya kũnogia nyamũ iria imĩkuuaga.
2 They have stooped, they have bowed together, They have not been able to deliver the burden, And themselves into captivity have gone.
Nyamũ icio na ngai icio cia kũhooywo irainamĩrĩra hamwe; ciothe ikaremwo nĩkũhonokia mĩhianano ĩyo ĩkuuĩtwo, nacio nyene igatahwo igatwarwo ũkombo-inĩ.
3 Hearken unto Me, O house of Jacob, And all the remnant of Israel, Who are borne from the belly, Who are carried from the womb,
“Atĩrĩrĩ, ta thikĩrĩriai, inyuĩ nyũmba ya Jakubu, inyuothe matigari ma nyũmba ya Isiraeli, o inyuĩ arĩa ndũire nditikĩte kuuma rĩrĩa mwarĩ nda cia manyina manyu, na ngatũũra ndĩmũkuuĩte kuuma rĩrĩa mwaciarirwo.
4 Even to old age I [am] He, and to grey hairs I carry, I made, and I bear, yea, I carry and deliver.
O na ũkũrũ-inĩ wanyu, no niĩ, o na rĩrĩa mũgaakorwo mũrĩ na mbuĩ, niĩ nĩ niĩ ngũmũtũũria muoyo. Nĩ niĩ ndaamũũmbire, na nĩ niĩ ngũtũũra ndĩmũkuuaga, ĩĩ ti-itherũ nĩ niĩ ngũmũtũũria muoyo na ndĩmũhonokagie.
5 To whom do ye liken Me, and make equal? And compare Me, that we may be like?
“Niĩ-rĩ, mũngĩngerekania na ũ kana nũũ mũngĩnjiganania nake? Mũngĩĩhaanania na ũ nĩguo tũgerekanio nake?
6 — They are pouring out gold from a bag, And silver on the beam they weigh, They hire a refiner, and he maketh it a god, They fall down, yea, they bow themselves.
Andũ amwe maitũrũraga thahabu kuuma mondo-inĩ ciao, na magathima betha na ratiri; magacooka makaandĩka mũturi wa thahabu amĩthondeke ĩtuĩke mũhianano wa ngai yao, nao magacooka makamĩinamĩrĩra, makamĩhooya.
7 They lift him up on the shoulder, They carry him, and cause him to rest in his place, And he standeth, from his place he moveth not, Yea, one crieth unto him, and he answereth not, From his adversity he saveth him not.
Mũhianano ũcio maũigagĩrĩra ciande ciao, makaũkuua; makaũiga handũ haguo, ũgaikara ũrũgamĩte o hau. No ndũngĩhota kuuma hau wĩtware. O na mũndũ angĩũkaĩra-rĩ, ndũngĩcookia, kana ũhonokie mũndũ ũcio kuuma mathĩĩna-inĩ make.
8 Remember this, and shew yourselves men, Turn [it] back, O transgressors, to the heart.
“Inyuĩ aremi aya, ririkanai ũndũ ũyũ, na mũwĩkĩre meciiria-inĩ manyu, mũũige ngoro-inĩ.
9 Remember former things of old, For I [am] Mighty, and there is none else, God — and there is none like Me.
Ririkanai maũndũ marĩa mahĩtũkĩte, marĩa ma tene; niĩ nĩ niĩ Mũrungu, na gũtirĩ ũngĩ tiga niĩ; niĩ nĩ niĩ Ngai, na gũtirĩ ũngĩ ũhaana ta niĩ.
10 Declaring from the beginning the latter end, And from of old that which hath not been done, Saying, 'My counsel doth stand, And all My delight I do.'
Niĩ menyithanagia maũndũ marĩa mageekĩka marigĩrĩrio-inĩ kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria, namo maũndũ marĩa magooka ngamamenyithania kuuma o tene. Ngoiga atĩrĩ: Ũrĩa nduĩte nĩũkahinga, namo maũndũ mothe marĩa nyendaga gwĩka-rĩ, no mo ngeeka.
11 Calling from the east a ravenous bird, From a far land the man of My counsel, Yea, I have spoken, yea, I bring it in, I have formed [it], yea, I do it.
Nĩngeeta nyoni ndĩa nyama kuuma mwena wa irathĩro; nĩngeeta mũndũ wa kũhingia maũndũ marĩa nduĩte gwĩka kuuma bũrũri wa kũraya. Ũrĩa njugĩte nĩngahingia; ũndũ ũrĩa ndĩciirĩtie gwĩka nĩngawĩka.
12 Hearken unto Me, ye mighty in heart, Who are far from righteousness.
Ta thikĩrĩriai, inyuĩ andũ a ngoro nyũmũ, o inyuĩ mũraihanĩrĩirie na ũhoro wa ũthingu.
13 I have brought near My righteousness, It is not far off, And My salvation — it doth not tarry, And I have given in Zion salvation, To Israel My glory!
Nĩngũreharehe ũthingu wakwa hakuhĩ, ndũrĩ kũraya; o naguo ũhonokio wakwa ũgũũka o narua. Ũhoro wa ũhonokio wakwa ngũwathĩrĩra Zayuni, na njathĩrĩre riiri wakwa kũrĩ Isiraeli.
