< Isaiah 66 >

1 Thus said Jehovah: The heavens [are] My throne, And the earth My footstool, Where [is] this — the house that ye build for Me? And where [is] this — the place — My rest?
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Polo e koma mar duongʼ, to piny e raten tienda. Koro ere kama dugerna e ot? To kar yweyo mara nobed kanye?
2 And all these My hand hath made, And all these things are, An affirmation of Jehovah! And unto this one I look attentively, Unto the humble and bruised in spirit, And who is trembling at My word.
Donge lweta ema osechweyo gigi duto momiyo gibedo mangima?” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho. “Ma e ngʼat ma ayiego ma en ngʼat ma hore kendo man-gi chuny motur, kendo ngʼama oluoro wachna.
3 Whoso slaughtereth the ox smiteth a man, Whoso sacrificeth the lamb beheadeth a dog, Whoso is bringing up a present — The blood of a sow, Whoso is making mention of frankincense, Is blessing iniquity. Yea, they have fixed on their own ways, And in their abominations their soul hath delighted.
To ngʼato angʼata moyangʼo rwath katimogo misango chal gi ngʼat monego dhano, kendo ngʼato angʼata motimo misango mar rombo, chal gi ngʼama oturo ngʼut guok, kendo ngʼato angʼata mochiwo misango mar cham chal gi ngʼat mochiwo remb anguro, bende ngʼato angʼata mowangʼo ubani mangʼwe ngʼar mar rapar, chal gi ngʼama lamo nyiseche manono. Giseyiero yoregi giwegi kendo chunygi mor gi timbegi mag rondogo;
4 I also — I fix on their vexations, And their fears I bring in to them, Because I have called, and there is none answering, I spake, and they have not hearkened, And they do the evil things in Mine eyes, And on that which I desired not — fixed.
omiyo an bende abiro yieronegi masiche mondo omakgi kendo abiro kelo kuomgi gik ma giluoro. Nimar kane aluongo, to onge ngʼat mane odwoka, kendo kane awuoyo, to onge ngʼat mane owinjo. Negitimo timbe mamono e nyima, kendo ne giyiero mana gik mamorogi.”
5 Hear a word of Jehovah, Ye who are trembling unto His word, Said have your brethren who are hating you, Who are driving you out, for My name's sake: 'Honoured is Jehovah, and we look on your joy,' But they are ashamed.
Winjuru wach Jehova Nyasaye, un jogo matetni kuwinjo dwonde: “Oweteni mochai kendo ok kwani ka gimoro nikech ihero nyinga osewacho niya, ‘Mad Jehova Nyasaye mi duongʼ, mondo omi wane morni!’ Kata kamano gin giwegi ema ginine wichkuot.
6 A voice of noise [is] from the city, a voice from the temple, The voice of Jehovah, giving recompence to His enemies.
Winjuru kaka nduru wuok e dala maduongʼ, kendo winjuru kaka kokono wuok e hekalu! Ma en dwond Jehova Nyasaye kochulogo kuor ne wasike moromo gi timbegi.
7 Before she is pained she hath brought forth, Before a pang cometh to her, She hath delivered a male.
“Kapok muoch ochako kaye, to osenywolo nyathi; kapok owinjo rem to osenywolo wuowi.
8 Who hath heard anything like this? Who hath seen anything like these? Is earth caused to bring forth in one day? Born is a nation at once? For she hath been pained, Zion also hath borne her sons.
En ngʼa mosewinjo wach machal kamano? En ngʼa moseneno gik machalo kamano? Bende piny dichwe godiechiengʼ achiel koso ogendini dichok dichiel? To mana e seche mane muoch ochako kayo Sayun ema nonywoloe nyithinde.
9 'Do I bring to the birth, And not cause to bring forth?' saith Jehovah, 'Am not I He who is causing to beget? I have also restrained,' said thy God.
Bende dawe sa ma dhako nywolie chopi mak amiye teko mar nywol?” Jehova Nyasaye owacho. “Bende dadin ich kochopo sa mar chiwo nyathi?” Nyasachi owacho.
10 Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, And be glad in her, all ye loving her, Rejoice ye with her for joy, All ye are mourning for her,
“Moruru gi Jerusalem kendo bed mamor kode, un duto muhere; beduru gi ilo maduongʼ, un duto man-gi kuyo nikech en.
11 So that ye suck, and have been satisfied, From the breast of her consolations, So that ye wring out, and have delighted yourselves From the abundance of her honour.
Nimar ibiro piru maber kudhodho thunde; kendo unumethi gi ilo mi ubed gi mor mogundho.”
12 For thus said Jehovah: 'Lo, I am stretching out to her peace as a river, And as an overflowing stream the honour of nations, And ye have sucked, on the side ye are carried, And on the knees ye are dandled.
Nimar ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Abiro miyo kwe ma en-go mol ka aora kendo mwandu mag pinje namiye mamol ka oula; unubed mamor ka odhodhou kotingʼou e bade kendo kopirou e chonge.
13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so do I comfort you, Yea, in Jerusalem ye are comforted.
Mana kaka miyo hoyo nyathine, e kaka abiro hoyou; kendo noho chunyu e Jerusalem.”
14 And ye have seen, and rejoiced hath your heart, And your bones as tender grass do flourish, And the hand of Jehovah hath been known unto His servants, And He hath been indignant with His enemies.
Ka uneno ma, to chunyu nobed gi mor, kendo dendu nobed maber mana ka lum matwi ndalo chwiri; lwet Jehova Nyasaye nofwenyre ne jotichne, to mirimbe to none kuom wasike.
15 For, lo, Jehovah in fire cometh, And as a hurricane His chariots, To refresh in fury His anger, And His rebuke in flames of fire.
To nee, Jehova Nyasaye biro gi mach, kendo gechene mag lweny chalo ka kalausi; obiro kelo mirimbe makakni, kendo chwat mare nopilre ka mach.
16 For by fire and by His sword, Doth Jehovah do judgment with all flesh. And many have been Jehovah's pierced ones.'
Nimar mach kod ligangla ema Jehova Nyasaye noyalgo ji duto, kendo joma Jehova Nyasaye nonegi nobed mangʼeny.
17 Those sanctifying and cleansing themselves at the gardens, After Ahad in the midst, Eating flesh of the sow, And of the abomination, and of the mouse, Together are consumed, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Joma pwodhore kendo bedo maler mondo odhiye puothe, kamoro ka moro luwo wadgi kendo chamo ring anguro, oyieyo kod gik moko duto makwero norum duto dichiel.
18 And I — their works and their thoughts, I come to gather all the nations and tongues, And they have come and seen My honour.
“An Jehova Nyasaye angʼeyo timbeni gi paroni achiegni biro mondo achok ogendini duto kod dhoudi mawacho dhok mopogore opogore kendo ginibi mi ginine duongʼ mara maler.
19 And I have set among them a sign, And have sent out of them those escaping unto the nations, (Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, drawing bow, Tubal and Javan, the isles that are far off, ) Who have not heard My fame, nor seen Mine honour, And they have declared Mine honour among nations.
“Anatim ranyisi e kindgi kendo anaor jomoko manok ma notony mane pok owinjo humba kata mane pok oneno duongʼ mara maler ma gin: Tarshish, Libya, Lud (mongʼere gi nying mar jolweny mongʼeyo kedo gi asere), jo-Tubal kod jo-Yunani kaachiel gi joma odak e dho nembe man kuonde maboyo. Gibiro nyiso duongʼna e kind ogendini.
20 And they have brought all your brethren out of all the nations, A present to Jehovah, On horses, and on chariot, and on litters, And on mules, and on dromedaries, Unto My holy mountain Jerusalem, said Jehovah, As the sons of Israel bring the present in a clean vessel, Into the house of Jehovah.
Kendo ginikel oweteni duto koa e ogendini duto, e goda maler ma en Jerusalem kaka gir misango ne Jehova Nyasaye ka moko oidho farese, geche lweny, pundane kod ngamia,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho. “Gibiro kelogi mana kaka jo-Israel kelo misengini e od Jehova Nyasaye, ka gitingʼogi e tewni maler.
21 And also of them I take for priests, For Levites, said Jehovah.
Kendo moko kuomgi bende nayier mondo obed jodolo kod jo-Lawi,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
22 For, as the new heavens and the new earth that I am making, Are standing before Me, An affirmation of Jehovah! So remain doth your seed and your name.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Mana kaka polo manyien machweyo gi piny manyien nosiki e nyima, e kaka nyingi kod nying nyikwayi nosiki.
23 And it hath been from month to month, And from sabbath to sabbath, Come do all flesh to bow themselves before Me, Said Jehovah.
Mana kaka dwe por kendo podho kendo machielo por, bende mana kaka chiengʼ Sabato nyaka chiengʼ Sabato machielo e kaka ji duto biro bedo kendo kulore e nyima,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
24 And they have gone forth, And looked on the carcases of the men Who are transgressing against me, For their worm dieth not, And their fire is not quenched, And they have been an abhorrence to all flesh!
“Giniwuogi mi gine ringre joma otho mosepiem koda, kudni machamogi ok notho kata mach mawangʼogi ok notho kendo ginibed gik ma piny ngima ojokgo.”
