Yesaya 27
1 Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, Yehowa atsɔ eƒe yi dziŋɔ, gã, sẽŋu la ahe to na Leviatan, da si nɔa eɖokui xatsam la; awu ʋɔ driba si le atsiaƒu me la hã.
In that day Jehovah, with his sore and great and strong sword, will visit leviathan the fleeing serpent, and leviathan the crooked serpent; and he will slay the monster that is in the sea.
2 Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, “Miadzi ha tso waingble si tse fũu la ŋu.
In that day [there shall be] a vineyard of pure wine; sing concerning it:
3 Nye Yehowae kpɔa edzi. Medea tsii ɣe sia ɣi. Medzɔa eŋu zã kple keli be ame aɖeke magagblẽe o.
I Jehovah keep it, I will water it every moment; lest any harm it, I will keep it night and day.
4 Nyemedo dziku o. Ɖe wònye ŋu kple aŋɔkawoe mie nam la, anye ne meho aʋa ɖe wo ŋuti, atɔ dzo wo katã.
Fury is not in me. Oh that I had briars [and] thorns in battle against me! I would march against them, I would burn them together.
5 Ema manɔmee la, woneva di sitsoƒe le gbɔnye; woneva míawɔ ŋutifafa, ɛ̃, woneva wɔ ŋutifafa kplim.”
Or let him take hold of my strength; let him make peace with me: [yea, ] let him make peace with me.
6 Ŋkekewo li gbɔna esi Yakob ato ke; Israel aƒo se, eye eƒe kutsetse ayɔ xexea me katã.
In the future Jacob shall take root; Israel shall blossom and bud, and they shall fill the face of the world with fruit.
7 Ɖe Yehowa ƒoe ƒu anyi abe ale si Yehowa ƒo ame siwo ƒoe ƒu anyi la enea? Ɖe wòwui abe ale si wowu ame siwo wui la enea?
Hath he smitten him according to the smiting of those that smote him? Is he slain according to the slaughter of those slain by him?
8 To aʋawɔwɔ kple aboyomeyiyi me, ètu nu kplii, etsɔ eƒe gbeɖeɖe dziŋɔ la nyae do goe abe gbe si gbe ɣedzeƒeya ƒo la ene.
In measure, when sending her away, didst thou contend with her: he hath taken [her] away with his rough wind in the day of the east wind.
9 To esia me ko woalé avu Yakob ƒe vodadawo, eye esia anye kutsetse si ado tso eƒe nu vɔ̃wo ɖeɖe ɖa me. Eyae nye be wòagbã vɔsamlekpuiwo; woatu wɔ abe ɣe ene eye aƒeliwo ƒe dzudzɔʋeʋĩdoƒewo maganɔ anyi o.
By this, therefore, shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this is all the fruit of the taking away of his sin: when he shall make all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are crumbled in pieces, — the Asherahs and the sun-images shall not stand.
10 Du si woglã la zu aƒedo, amenɔƒe si amewo megale o. Wogblẽe ɖi wòzu gbegbe, afi si nyiviwo ɖua gbe le; afi mae wotsyɔa akɔ ɖo, eye woɖua wainti ƒe alɔwo
For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation abandoned and forsaken like a wilderness; there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume its boughs.
11 Wainka la kuna, ŋena dzea anyi, eye nyɔnuwo fɔnɛ doa dzoe, elabena wonye ame masenugɔmewo. Eya ta woƒe Wɔla metrɔ dɔ me ɖe wo ŋu o, eye woƒe Wɔla meve wo nu o.
When its branches are withered they shall be broken off; women shall come [and] set them on fire. For it is a people of no intelligence; therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he who formed them will shew them no favour.
12 Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, O! Mi Israelviwo, Yehowa aƒo mi abe lu ene tso Frat tɔsisi la to va se ɖe Egipte tɔʋuwo to, eye wòagayɔ mi aƒo ƒui ɖeka ɖeka.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah shall beat out from the flood of the river unto the torrent of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, [ye] children of Israel.
13 Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, kpẽ sesẽ aɖi. Ame siwo le tsɔtsrɔ̃m le Asiria kple ame siwo si yi Egipte la, woatrɔ agbɔ ava subɔ Yehowa le to kɔkɔe si le Yerusalem la dzi.
And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the great trumpet shall be blown; and they shall come that were perishing in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and they shall worship Jehovah in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
