< Yesaya 4 >
1 Gbe ma gbe la, nyɔnu adre aku ɖe ŋutsu ɖeka ŋu ahagblɔ be, “Míaɖu míawo ŋutɔ ƒe nu, eye míatso avɔ na mía ɖokuiwo. Na woayɔ wò ŋkɔ ɖe mía ŋu ko, nàɖe míaƒe ŋukpe ɖa.”
And seven women will take hold of one man, in that day, saying, “We will eat our own bread and wear our own clothing, only let us be called by your name, so as to take away our reproach.”
2 Gbe ma gbe la, Yehowa ƒe Atilɔ anya kpɔ, eye ŋutikɔkɔe anɔ eŋu. Anyigba ƒe kutsetse anye dada kple ŋutikɔkɔe na ame siwo susɔ ɖe Israel.
In that day, the seedling of the Lord will have magnificence and glory, and the fruit of the earth will be greatly-esteemed and a source of joy to those who will have been saved out of Israel.
3 Ame siwo susɔ ɖe Zion, ame siwo tsi Yerusalem la, woayɔ wo be kɔkɔe, ame siwo katã ƒe ŋkɔ woŋlɔ ɖe agbagbeawo dome le Yerusalem.
And this shall be: all who are left behind in Zion, and who remain in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, all who have been written in life in Jerusalem.
4 Aƒetɔ la aklɔ ɖiƒoƒo ɖa le Zion nyɔnuwo ŋu. Aklɔ ʋu si kɔ ɖe Yerusalem la ɖa kple nuteƒewɔwɔ ƒe gbɔgbɔ kple dzo ƒe gbɔgbɔ.
Then the Lord will have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and will have washed away the blood of Jerusalem from its midst, by means of a spirit of judgment and a spirit of intense devotion.
5 Ekema Yehowa ana lilikpo nado ɖe Zion to blibo la kple ame siwo katã ƒo ƒu ɖe afi ma kple dzudzɔ la dzi le ŋkeke me, eye le zã me la, anye dzo bibi, eye ŋutikɔkɔe anye agbadɔ.
And the Lord will create, over every place of Mount Zion and wherever he is called upon, a cloud by day and a smoke with the splendor of burning fire by night. For protection will be over every glory.
6 Woanye vɔvɔli na anyigba le ŋkeke me kple bebeƒe le tsidzadza kple ahomwo me.
And there will be a tabernacle for shade from the heat in daytime, and for security, and for protection from the whirlwind and from rain.
