< Isaiah 56 >

1 Thus said Jehovah: 'Keep ye judgment, and do righteousness, For near [is] My salvation to come, And My righteousness to be revealed.'
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Ngʼaduru bura makare kendo utim gima kare, nikech warruokna osekayo machiegni kendo timna makare chiegni fwenyore.
2 O the happiness of a man who doth this, And of a son of man who keepeth hold on it, Keeping the sabbath from polluting it, And keeping his hand from doing any evil.
Ogwedh ngʼat matimo ma, mangʼado bura makare kendo ngʼatno marito chiengʼ Sabato ka ok odwanye, kendo ok oyie lwete mulo gik mogak.”
3 Nor speak let a son of the stranger, Who is joined unto Jehovah, saying: 'Jehovah doth certainly separate me from His people.' Nor say let the eunuch, 'Lo, I am a tree dried up,'
Kik ngʼat ma japiny moro moseyie kuom Jehova Nyasaye wachi ni, “Jehova Nyasaye biro kweda e kind ogandane adier.” Kendo ngʼato angʼata mabwoch kik wachi ni, “An mana ka yien motwo.”
4 For thus said Jehovah of the eunuchs, Who do keep My sabbaths, And have fixed on that which I desired, And are keeping hold on My covenant:
Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Joma bwoch, morito Sabato mara, mayiero timo gima miya mor, kendo morito singruokna,
5 I have given to them in My house, And within My walls a station and a name, Better than sons and than daughters, A name age-during I give to him That is not cut off.
ei hekalu mara, anami nying-gi bedo rapar moloyo bedo gi yawuowi kod nyiri; bende anamigi nying ma ok norum nyaka chiengʼ.
6 And sons of the stranger, who are joined to Jehovah, To serve Him, and to love the name of Jehovah, To be to Him for servants, Every keeper of the sabbath from polluting it, And those keeping hold on My covenant.
Kendo jopinje mamoko mane oseyie kuom Jehova Nyasaye katiyone kohero nyinge, kendo kalame, jogo duto marito chiengʼ Sabato ma ok odwanye kendo morito singruokna,
7 I have brought them unto My holy mountain, And caused them to rejoice in My house of prayer, Their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices [Are] for a pleasing thing on Mine altar, For My house, 'A house of prayer,' Is called for all the peoples.
gin duto anakelgi e goda maler mi anamigi mor e oda mar lamo. Chiwo mag-gi mag misengini miwangʼo pep kod misengini mamoko nayiego e kendona mar misango; kendo oda noluongi ni od lamo mar ogendini duto.”
8 An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Who is gathering the outcasts of Israel: 'Again I gather to him — to his gathered ones.'
Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto ma en Jal ma choko jo-Israel duto, mane oter e twech wacho niya, “Pod abiro choko jomoko makel irgi, kaweyo mago mosechoki.”
9 Every beast of the field, Come to devour, every beast in the forest.
Biuru un le manie thim, biuru mondo utiek gik moko un le mag bungu duto!
10 Blind [are] his watchmen — all of them, They have not known, All of them [are] dumb dogs, they are not able to bark, Dozing, lying down, loving to slumber.
Jorito mag Israel muofni, giduto gionge rieko; gichalo mana gi guogi mamuol, ma ok nyal giyo; kendo riere piny mi lek, nikech gihero nindo.
11 And the dogs [are] strong of desire, They have not known sufficiency, And they [are] shepherds! They have not known understanding, All of them to their own way they did turn, Each to his dishonest gain from his quarter:
Gin guogi ma dhogi mit kendo ok giyiengʼ. Gin jokwath maonge winjo; giduto gibaro ka giluwo yoregi giwegi, kendo moro ka moro dwaro gima kelone ohala ne en owuon.
12 'Come ye, I take wine, And we drink, quaff strong drink, And as this day hath been to-morrow, Great — exceeding abundant!'
Giwacho e kindgi giwegi ni, “Biuru mondo wakaw divai! Wamadhuru kongʼo mi wamer! Kendo kiny nochal mana gi kawuono, to bende onyalo bedo maber moloyo.”
