Yesaya 63
1 Ame kae nye esi gbɔna tso Bozra le Edom, eye aŋɔ dzĩ ƒo eƒe awuwo? Ame kae nye esi ɖo atsyɔ̃, eye wòle zɔzɔm le eƒe ŋusẽ triakɔ me? “Nyee le nu ƒom le dzɔdzɔenyenye me. Ŋusẽ le asinye be maɖe ame.”
Who [is] this coming from Edom? With dyed garments from Bozrah? This that is honorable in His clothing, Traveling in the abundance of His power? “I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save.”
2 Nu ka ta wò awuwo biã abe ame si le wain fiam la tɔwo ene?
Why [is] Your clothing red? And Your garments as treading in a winepress?
3 “Nye ɖekae fia wain le wainfiaƒe, ame aɖeke metso dukɔwo dome va kpe ɖe ŋunye o. Mefanya wo le nye dziku me, eye menya avuzi le wo dzi le nye dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ la me. Woƒe ʋue hlẽ ɖe nye awuwo me, eye woƒe ʋu ƒo nu siwo medo,
“I have trodden a wine vat by Myself, And of the peoples there is no one with Me, And I tread them in My anger, And I trample them in My fury, Their strength is sprinkled on My garments, And I have defiled all My clothing.
4 elabena hlɔ̃biaŋkeke le nye dzi me, eye nye ɖeɖe ƒe ƒe la va ɖo.
For the day of vengeance [is] in My heart, And the year of My redeemed has come.
5 Metsa ŋku, ke ame aɖeke meli ana kpekpeɖeŋu o. Nye mo wɔ yaa be ame aɖeke meva na kpekpeɖeŋu o. Tete nye ŋutɔ nye abɔ xɔ nam, eye nye dɔmedzoe lém ɖe te.
And I look attentively, and there is none helping, And I am astonished that there is none supporting, And My own arm gives salvation to Me. And My wrath—it has supported Me.
6 Mefanya dukɔwo le nye dziku me. Le nye dɔmedzoe helĩhelĩ la me, mena womu aha, eye metrɔ woƒe ʋu kɔ ɖe anyigba.”
And I tread down peoples in My anger, And I make them drunk in My fury, And I bring down their strength to earth.”
7 Maɖe gbeƒã Yehowa ƒe dɔmenyo, Yehowa ƒe nu siwo wòwɔ na mí, esiwo ta wòle be woakafui ɖo. Ɛ̃, kpe ɖe nu nyui siwo katã wòwɔ na Israel ƒe aƒe la ŋu, le eƒe nublanuikpɔkpɔ kple dɔmenyo gbogboawo ta la,
I make mention of the kind acts of YHWH, The praises of YHWH, According to all that YHWH has done for us, And the abundance of the goodness to the house of Israel, That He has done for them, According to His mercies, And according to the abundance of His kind acts.
8 egblɔ be, “Vavã nye amewoe wonye. Viŋutsu siwo mada alakpa nam o”, eya ta wòzu woƒe Ɖela.
And He says, “Surely they [are] My people, Sons—they do not lie,” and He is to them for a Savior.
9 Eya hã xaxa le woƒe xaxawo katã me, eye mawudɔla si dzi wòwɔa dɔ tonae la ɖe wo. Eɖe wo le eƒe lɔlɔ̃ kple nublanuikpɔkpɔ ta. Efɔ wo ɖe dzi, eye wòtsɔ wo le blemaŋkekeawo katã me,
In all their distress [He is] no adversary, And the Messenger of His Presence saved them, In His love and in His pity He redeemed them, And He lifts them up, And carries them all the days of old.
10 gake wodze aglã hedo dziku na eƒe Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la, eya ta wòtrɔ ɖe wo ŋu hezu futɔ na wo, eye eya ŋutɔ wɔ aʋa kpli wo.
And they have been rebellious and have grieved His Holy Spirit, And He turns to them for an enemy, He Himself has fought against them.
11 Tete eƒe dukɔ la ɖo ŋku blemaŋkekeawo dzi, Mose kple eƒe amewo ƒe ŋkekewo hebia be afi ka ame si nye eƒe alẽhawo ƒe kplɔla, si kplɔ wo to atsiaƒu me la le? Afi ka ame si dɔ eƒe Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la ɖe wo dome,
And He remembers the days of old, Moses—his people. Where [is] He who is bringing them up from the sea, The shepherd of His flock? Where [is] He who is putting in its midst His Holy Spirit?
12 ame si dɔ eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ƒe alɔ ƒe ŋusẽ be wòanɔ Mose ƒe nuɖusime la le? Afi ka ame si ma tsiwo le wo ŋgɔ be eƒe ŋkɔ nanyɔ tegbee,
Leading by the right hand of Moses, the arm of His glory, Cleaving waters from before them, To make to Himself a continuous Name.
13 eye wòkplɔ wo to gogloƒe la le? Abe sɔ si le gbadzaƒe ene la, womekli nu o.
Leading them through the depths, They do not stumble as a horse in a plain.
14 Abe nyi si wokplɔ yina ɖe gbeɖuƒe ene la, Yehowa ƒe Gbɔgbɔ na wogbɔ ɖe eme. Aleae nèkplɔ wò dukɔ lae be nàde bubuŋkɔ ɖokuiwò ŋu.
As a beast goes down into a valley, The Spirit of YHWH causes him to rest, So You have led Your people, To make to Yourself a glorious Name.
15 Bi kɔ tso dziƒo, eye nàkpɔ nu tso wò ŋutikɔkɔefiazikpui kɔkɔ la dzi. Afi ka wò ŋuʋaʋã kple ŋusẽ la le? Woɣla wò bɔbɔenyenye kple wò dɔmetɔtrɔ ɖe mí,
Look attentively from the heavens, And see from Your holy and beautiful habitation, Where [is] Your zeal and Your might? The multitude of Your bowels and Your mercies—Are they restrained?
16 gake wòe nye mia Fofo, togbɔ be Abraham menya mí alo Israel nayi si dze ge mi o hã la, wò, o, Yehowae nye mia Fofo, mía Ɖela tso gbe aɖe gbe kee nye wò ŋkɔ.
For You [are] our Father, For Abraham has not known us, And Israel does not acknowledge us, You, O YHWH, [are] our Father, Our Redeemer from the Age, [is] Your Name.
17 O! Yehowa, nu ka ta nèna míetra tso wò mɔwo dzi hesẽ míaƒe dziwo me, be míede bubu ŋu wò o? Gatrɔ va le wò dɔla siwo nye to siwo nye wò domenyinuwo la ta.
Why cause us to wander, O YHWH, from Your ways? You harden our heart from Your fear, Turn back for Your servants’ sake, The tribes of Your inheritance.
18 Ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe koe wò teƒe, kɔkɔe la nɔ wò amewo ƒe asi me. Ke azɔ la, míaƒe futɔwo nya avuzi le wò kɔkɔeƒe la dzi.
For a little while Your holy people possessed, Our adversaries have trodden down Your sanctuary.
19 Tɔwòwoe míenye tso blema ke, gake woawo la, mèɖu fia ɖe wo dzi kpɔ o, eye womeyɔ wò ŋkɔ hã ɖe wo ŋu kpɔ o.
We have been from of old, You have not ruled over them, Your Name is not called on them!
