Yesaya 54

1 “Tso aseye, o konɔ, wò ame si medzi vi kpɔ o. Wò ame si melé ku kpɔ o. Dzi ha nàdo dzidzɔɣli, elabena nyɔnu si tsi akogo la ƒe viwo sɔ gbɔ wu nyɔnu si si srɔ̃ le la.” Yehowae gblɔe.

Thou bareyn, that childist not, herie; thou that childist not, synge heriyng, and make ioie; for whi many sones ben of the forsakun `womman more than of hir that hadde hosebonde, seith the Lord.

2 Keke wò agbadɔ ƒe nɔƒe ɖe edzi, he wò agbadɔvɔ la me ɖe edzi; he wò agbadɔvɔ la me ɖe edzi, mègatoe ɖe eme o. Didi wò agbadɔkawo ɖe enu, eye nàƒo wò tsyotiwo ɖe to sesĩe,

Alarge thou the place of thi tente, and stretche forth the skynnes of thi tabernaclis; spare thou not, make longe thi roopis, and make sad thi nailis.

3 elabena akeke ta ayi ɖusime kple miame. Wò dzidzimeviwo axɔ dukɔwo ƒe anyigbawo le wo si, eye woatso aƒewo ɖe woƒe du gbagbãwo me, anɔ wo me.

For thou schalt perse to the riytside and to the leftside; and thi seed schal enherite hethene men, and schal dwelle in forsakun citees.

4 “Mègavɔ̃ o, elabena wò mo matsi dãa o. Mègavɔ̃ na ŋukpeɖuɖu o, elabena womado vlo wò o. Àŋlɔ wò ɖetugbimeŋukpewo be, eye màgaɖo ŋku wò ahosinyenye ƒe vlododowo dzi o,

Nile thou drede, for thou schal not be schent, nether thou schalt be aschamed. For it schal not schame thee; for thou schalt foryete the schenschipe of thi yongthe, and thou schalt no more thenke on the schenschipe of thi widewehod.

5 elabena wò wɔlae nye srɔ̃wò. Eƒe ŋkɔe nye Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ. Israel ƒe Kɔkɔetɔ lae nye wò Ɖela. Woyɔnɛ be anyigba blibo la ƒe Mawu.

For he that made thee, schal be lord of thee; the Lord of oostis is his name; and thin ayenbiere, the hooli of Israel, schal be clepid God of al erthe.

6 Yehowa agbugbɔ ayɔ wò vɛ, abe nyɔnu si gbɔ srɔ̃a gbe nu le, eye eƒe gbɔgbɔ le nu xam la ene. Abe ame si ɖe srɔ̃ le ɖetugbime, eye srɔ̃a gblee ɖi la ene” Wò Mawu lae gblɔe.

For the Lord hath clepid thee as a womman forsakun and morenynge in spirit, and a wijf, `that is cast awei fro yongthe.

7 “Megble wò ɖi ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe ko, gake matsɔ dɔmetɔtrɔ si goglo la akplɔ wò agbɔe.

Thi Lord God seide, At a poynt in litil tyme Y forsook thee, and Y schal gadere thee togidere in greete merciful doyngis.

8 Le nye dziku sesẽ la me meɣla nye mo ɖe wò ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe, gake matsɔ dɔmenyo si nɔa anyi tegbee la ave nuwòe.” Yehowa, wò Ɖelae gblɔe.

In a moment of indignacioun Y hidde my face a litil fro thee, and in merci euerlastynge Y hadde merci on thee, seide thin ayenbiere, the Lord.

9 “Ele nam ko abe Noa ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo me ene, esi meka atam be ale si tsi ɖe anyigbae le Noa ŋɔli la, magadzɔ nenema akpɔ gbeɖe o. Nenema kee meka atam azɔ be nyemagado dziku ɖe mia ŋuti o eye nyemagaka mo na mi akpɔ o.

As in the daies of Noe, this thing is to me, to whom Y swoor, that Y schulde no more bringe watris of the greet flood on the erthe; so Y swoor, that Y be no more wrooth to thee, and that Y blame not thee.

10 Togbɔ be towo aʋa, eye togbɛwo aɖe ɖa hã la, nye lɔlɔ̃ mavɔ si metsɔ lɔ̃ mi la maʋã o, eye nye ŋutifafanubabla mate ɖa o.” Yehowa, wò nublanuikpɔlae gblɔe.

Forsothe hillis schulen be mouyd togidere, and litle hillis schulen tremble togidere; but my merci schal not go a wei fro thee, and the boond of my pees schal not be mouyd, seide the merciful doere, the Lord.

11 “O! Wò du si kpe hiã, ahom lɔ wò ɖe nu, eye womefa akɔ na wò o. Matsɔ kpe ŋɔŋɔewo atu wòe, eye matsɔ adzagba aɖo gɔwòme anyi.

Thou litle and pore, drawun out bi tempest, with outen ony coumfort, lo! Y schal strewe thi stoonys bi ordre, and Y schal founde thee in safiris;

12 Matsɔ gbloti asrã wò xɔtamee, wò agbowo anye lekewɔnu siwo le keklẽm, eye wò gliwo anye kpe xɔasiwo.

and Y schal sette iaspis thi touris, and thi yatis in to grauun stoonys, and alle thin eendis in to desirable stoonys.

13 Yehowa afia nu viwò ŋutsuwo katã, eye viwòwo ƒe ŋutifafa asɔ gbɔ fũu.

`Y schal make alle thi sones tauyt of the Lord; and the multitude of pees to thi sones,

14 Woaɖo gɔwòme anyi le dzɔdzɔenyenye me. Ŋutasesẽ anɔ adzɔge na wò. Màvɔ̃ na naneke o. Ŋɔdzi ate ɖa xaa tso gbɔwò, eye mate ɖe ŋuwò o.

and thou schalt be foundid in riytfulnesse. Go thou awei fer fro fals caleng, for thou schalt not drede; and fro drede, for it schal not neiye to thee.

15 Ne ame aɖe wɔ avu kpli wò la, menye nyee dɔe o. Ame si awɔ avu kpli wò la, ana ta.

Lo! a straunger schal come, that was not with me; he, that was sum tyme thi comelyng, schal be ioyned to thee.

16 “Kpɔ ɖa, nyee wɔ gbede si yɔa ʋu ɖe dzo te wòléna, eye wòtua lãnu si hiã na eƒe dɔ. Nyee wɔ nugblẽla be wòagblẽ nu;

Lo! Y made a smyth blowynge coolis in fier, and bringynge forth a vessel in to his werk; and Y haue maad a sleere, for to leese.

17 lãnu sia lãnu si wotu ɖe ŋutiwò la, madze edzi o, eye àɖu aɖe sia aɖe si atso ɖe ŋutiwò le ʋɔnu la dzi. Esiae nye Yehowa ƒe dɔlawo ƒe domenyinu, eye wòganye afiatsotso na wò tso gbɔnye,” Yehowae gblɔe.

Ech vessel which is maad ayens thee, schal not be dressid; and in the doom thou schalt deme ech tunge ayenstondynge thee. This is the eritage of the seruauntis of the Lord, and the riytfulnesse of hem at me, seith the Lord.
