Yesaya 48
1 “O! Yakob ƒe aƒe, miɖo to nya sia. Mi ame siwo ŋu woyɔ Israel ɖo, eye mietso Yuda ƒe dzidzime me. Mi ame siwo ka atam kple Yehowa ƒe ŋkɔ, eye mieyɔa Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ, gake menye le nyateƒe alo dzɔdzɔenyenye me o.
The hows of Jacob, that ben clepid bi the name of Israel, and yeden out of the watris of Juda, here these thingis, whiche sweren in the name of the Lord, and han mynde on God of Israel, not in treuthe, nether in riytfulnesse.
2 Mi ame siwo yɔa mia ɖokuiwo be du kɔkɔe la me tɔwo, eye mieɖo ŋu ɖe Israel ƒe Mawu la ŋu, ame si ŋkɔe nye Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ.
For thei ben clepid of the hooli citee, and ben stablischid on the God of Israel, the Lord of oostis is his name.
3 Megblɔ nu siwo dzɔ va yi la da ɖi xoxo. Metsɔ nye nu ɖe gbeƒã wo, eye mena mienya wo. Meɖe zɔ, kasia wo katã wova eme,
Fro that tyme Y telde the former thingis, and tho yeden out of my mouth; and Y made tho knowun; sudenli Y wrouyte, and tho thingis camen.
4 elabena menya ale si miaƒe dzi me sẽe. Miaƒe kɔwo lia abe gakpo ene, eye miaƒe tagbɔ sẽ abe akɔbli ene,
For Y wiste that thou art hard, and thi nol is a senewe of irun, and thi forhed is of bras.
5 eya ta megblɔ nu siawo na mi gbe aɖe gbe ʋĩi va yi. Hafi woava adzɔ la, meɖe gbeƒã na mi be miagagblɔ be, ‘Nye legbawoe wɔ wo. Nye aklamakpakpɛwo kple akɔblimawue ɖo wo da ɖi,’ o.
Y biforseide to thee fro that tyme, bifore that tho thingis camen, Y schewide to thee, lest perauenture thou woldist seie, Myn idols diden these thingis, and my grauun ymagis and my yotun
6 Miese esiawo katã. Mikpɔ wo katã ɖa. Ɖe mialɔ̃ be wole eme oa? “Tso azɔ dzi la, maƒo nu tso nu yeyewo ŋu na mi, tso nu siwo le ɣaɣla, eye mienya wo o la ŋuti na mi.
ymagis senten these thingis whiche thou herdist. Se thou alle thingis, but ye telden not. Y made herd newe thyngis to thee fro that tyme, and thingis ben kept whiche thou knowist not;
7 Fifia ko wowɔ wo. Wo wɔɣi medidi o. Miese woƒe ŋkɔ kpɔ abe egbea ene o, eya ta miate ŋu agblɔ be, ‘Ɛ̃ mienya wo’ o.
now tho ben maad of nouyt, and not fro that tyme, and bifor the dai, and thou herdist not tho thingis; lest perauenture thou seie, Lo! Y knew tho thingis.
8 Miesee kpɔ loo alo se egɔme o. Tso blema ke, miaƒe towo meʋu o. Menya ale si miebaɖae la nyuie. Woyɔa mi tso ɖevime ke be, aglãdzelawo.
Nether thou herdist, nether thou knewist, nether thin eere was openyd fro that tyme; for Y woot, that thou trespassynge schal trespasse, and Y clepide thee a trespassour fro the wombe.
9 Le nye ŋutɔ nye ŋkɔ ta la, mehe nye dɔmedzoe ɖe megbe. Le nye kafukafu ta la, nyemena wòva mia dzi o, be nyematsrɔ̃ mi o.
For my name Y schal make fer my strong veniaunce, and with my preysyng Y schal refreyne thee, lest thou perische.
10 Kpɔ ɖa, melolõ mi, gake menye abe klosalo ene o. Medo mi kpɔ le fuwɔame ƒe kpodzo me.
Lo! Y haue sode thee, but not as siluer; Y chees thee in the chymeney of pouert.
11 Le nye ŋutɔ ta, mewɔ esia ɖo. Aleke maɖe mɔ be woaɖi gbɔ̃m? Nyematsɔ nye ŋutikɔkɔe na ame bubu o.”
Y schal do for me, that Y be not blasfemyd, and Y schal not yyue my glorie to another.
12 “O! Yakob, ɖo tom, Israel, ame si meyɔ. Nyee nye gbãtɔ, eye nyee nye mlɔetɔ hã.
Jacob and Israel, whom Y clepe, here thou me; Y my silf, Y am the firste and Y am the laste.
13 Nye ŋutɔe tsɔ nye asiwo ɖo anyigba gɔme anyi, eye nye nuɖusibɔe metsɔ keke dziwo mee. Ne meyɔ wo la, wo katã wotsona ɖekae.
And myn hond foundide the erthe, and my riyt hond mat heuenes; Y schal clepe tho, and tho schulen stonde togidere.
14 “Mi katã miva ƒo ƒu ne miaɖo to afii. Legbawo dometɔ kae gblɔ nu siawo da ɖi? Ame si Yehowa tia la ana Yehowa ƒe tameɖoɖo ɖe Babilonia ŋu nava eme, eye wòakɔ eƒe abɔ dzi ɖe Babiloniatɔwo ŋu.
Alle ye be gaderid togidere, and here; who of hem telde these thingis? The Lord louyde hym, he schal do his wille in Babiloyne, and his arm in Caldeis.
15 Nye, nye koe ƒo nu. Ɛ̃, nyee yɔe. Makplɔe vɛ, eye wòakpɔ dzidzedze le eƒe dɔdeasi la me.
Y, Y spak, and clepide hym; Y brouyte hym, and his weie was dressid.
16 “Mite ɖe ŋunye kpokploe ne miaɖo to nya sia, nyemeƒo nu le bebeme o.” Esi wòva eme la, menɔ afi ma? Azɔ Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la dɔm kple eƒe Gbɔgbɔ.
Neiye ye to me, and here ye these thingis; at the bigynnyng Y spak not in priuete; fro tyme, bifore that thingis weren maad, Y was there, and now the Lord God and his Spirit sente me.
17 Ale Yehowa, wò Ɖela, Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ la gblɔe nye esi, “Nyee nye Yehowa, wò Mawu, si fiaa nu si nyo na wò la wò, ame si fiaa mɔ si nàto la wò.
The Lord, thin ayen biere, the hooli of Israel, seith these thingis, Y am thi Lord God, techynge thee profitable thingis, and Y gouerne thee in the weie, wher ynne thou goist.
18 Nenye ɖe nèɖo to nye sededewo la, anye ne wò ŋutifafa anɔ sisim abe tɔsisi ene, eye wò dzɔdzɔenyenye anɔ abe ƒutsotsoe ene.
Y wolde that thou haddist perseyued my comaundementis, thi pees hadde be maad as flood, and thi riytfulnesse as the swolowis of the see;
19 Wò dzidzimeviwo ɖe woasɔ gbɔ abe ke ene, eye viwòwo abe ƒutake si womate ŋu axlẽ o la ene. Womaɖe woƒe ŋkɔwo ɖa loo alo woatsrɔ̃ le ŋkunye me o.”
and thi seed hadde be as grauel, and the generacioun of thi wombe, as the litle stoonys therof; the name of it hadde not perischid, and hadde not be al to-brokun fro my face.
20 Midzo le Babilonia, misi le Babiloniatɔwo gbɔ! Mitsɔ dzidzɔɣli ɖe gbeƒã esia, eye mido bobloe. Miɖo du ɖe anyigba ƒe mlɔenuwo ke be, “Yehowa ɖe eƒe dɔla Yakob”
Go ye out of Babiloyne, fle ye fro Caldeis; telle ye in the vois of ful out ioiying; make ye this herd, and bere ye it `til to the laste partis of erthe; seie ye, The Lord ayenbouyte his seruaunt Jacob.
21 Tsikɔ mewu wo esi wòkplɔ wo to gbedzi o. Ena tsi do tso agakpe me na wo. Egbã agakpe la, eye tsi do bababa.
Thei thirstiden not in desert, whanne he ladde hem out; he brouyte forth to hem watir of a stoon, and he departide the stoon, and watris flowiden.
22 Yehowa be, “Ŋutifafa meli na ame vɔ̃ɖiwo o.”
Pees is not to wickid men, seith the Lord.
