< Isaia 19 >

1 Ĩno nĩ ndũmĩrĩri nditũ ĩkoniĩ bũrũri wa Misiri: Atĩrĩrĩ, Jehova ahaicĩte itu rĩhanyũkĩte mũno athiĩte bũrũri wa Misiri. Mĩhianano ya bũrũri wa Misiri irainaina mbere yake, nacio ngoro cia andũ a bũrũri wa Misiri ikaringĩka thĩinĩ wao.
The burden of Egypt [Abode of slavery]: “Behold, Adonai rides on a swift cloud, and comes to Egypt [Abode of slavery]. The idols of Egypt [Abode of slavery] will tremble at his presence; and the heart of Egypt [Abode of slavery] will melt within it.
2 “Nĩngarahũra Mũmisiri ookĩrĩre Mũmisiri ũrĩa ũngĩ: mũndũ nĩakarũa na mũrũ wa ithe, nake mũndũ wa itũũra ookĩrĩre mũndũ wa itũũra rĩake, narĩo itũũra inene rĩũkĩrĩre itũũra rĩrĩa rĩngĩ, naguo ũthamaki ũũkĩrĩre ũthamaki ũrĩa ũngĩ.
I will stir up the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] against the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery], and they will fight everyone against his brother, and everyone against his neighbor; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
3 Andũ a bũrũri wa Misiri nĩmagakua ngoro, nayo mĩbango yao ndĩmĩtue ya tũhũ; makaahooya kĩrĩra kũrĩ ngai cia mĩhianano na kũrĩ maroho ma andũ arĩa makuĩte, o na kũrĩ ago na aragũri.
The spirit of Egypt [Abode of slavery] will fail within it. I will destroy its counsel. They will seek the idols, the charmers, those who have familiar spirits, and the wizards.
4 Nĩnganeana andũ a bũrũri wa Misiri wathani-inĩ wa mwathi ũtarĩ tha, na mũthamaki mũũru amathamakĩre,” ũguo nĩguo Mwathani Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga.
I will give over the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] into the hand of a cruel lord. A fierce king will rule over them,” says the Lord, Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies].
5 Maaĩ ma Rũũĩ rwa Nili nĩmakaahũa, na mũkaro waruo ũngʼare na ũũme.
The waters will fail from the sea, and the river will be wasted and become dry.
6 Mĩtaro ya maaĩ nĩĩkanunga; tũrũũĩ twa Misiri nĩtũkaahũa tũũme biũ. Namo marura na mathanjĩ nĩmakahooha,
The rivers will become foul. The streams of Egypt [Abode of slavery] will be diminished and dried up. The reeds and flags will wither away.
7 o nayo mĩmera ĩrĩa ĩrĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Rũũĩ rwa Nili, gĩtwe-inĩ kĩa rũũĩ rũu, nĩĩkahooha. Indo iria ciothe ĩhaandĩtwo mĩgũnda ĩrĩa ĩrĩ gũkuhĩ na Rũũĩ rwa Nili nĩikooma biũ, na ciũmbũrwo, na itigacooka kuoneka kuo rĩngĩ.
The meadows by the Nile, by the brink of the Nile, and all the sown fields of the Nile, will become dry, be driven away, and be no more.
8 Ategi a thamaki nĩmagacaaya na marĩre, arĩa othe maikagia ndwano ciao Rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Nili; nao arĩa othe maikagia mĩtego yao maaĩ-inĩ macio nĩmakoorwo nĩ hinya.
The fishermen will lament, and all those who fish in the Nile will mourn, and those who spread nets on the waters will languish.
9 Andũ arĩa marutaga wĩra na ndigi cia ũguta ũrĩa mwega nĩmagakua ngoro, na arĩa matumaga mataama marĩa mahoro nĩmakaaga mwĩhoko.
Moreover those who work in combed flax, and those who weave white cloth, will be confounded.
10 Atumi a nguo nĩmagakorwo na kĩeha, na arĩa othe maheagwo mĩcaara nĩmakaigua ũũru ngoro.
The pillars will be broken in pieces. All those who work for hire will be grieved in soul.
11 Anene a Zoani nĩmakĩĩgĩte o gũkĩĩga; nao andũ arĩa oogĩ a Firaũni maheanaga kĩrĩra kĩa ũrimũ. Mwakĩhota atĩa kwĩra Firaũni, “Niĩ ndĩ ũmwe wa andũ arĩa oogĩ, ndĩ mũrutwo wa athamaki arĩa a tene?”
The princes of Zoan are utterly foolish. The counsel of the wisest counselors of Pharaoh has become stupid. How do you say to Pharaoh, “I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings?”
12 Andũ aku arĩa oogĩ makĩrĩ ha rĩu? Ta nĩmagĩkuonie na makũmenyithie ũrĩa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe aciirĩire gwĩka bũrũri wa Misiri.
Where then are your wise men? Let them tell you now; and let them know what Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] has purposed concerning Egypt [Abode of slavery].
13 Anene a Zoani makĩĩgĩte o gũkĩĩga, nao atongoria a Nofu makaheeneka; namo mahiga ma koine ma andũ ake nĩmahĩtithĩtie andũ a Misiri.
The princes of Zoan have become fools. The princes of Memphis are deceived. They have caused Egypt [Abode of slavery] to go astray, who are the cornerstone of her tribes.
14 Jehova nĩwe ũmaitĩrĩirie roho wa kĩrigiicano; matũmaga andũ a Misiri matũgũũge mawĩra-inĩ mothe marĩa marutaga, o ta ũrĩa mũrĩĩu atũgũũgaga matahĩko-inĩ make.
Adonai has mixed a spirit of perverseness in the middle of her; and they have caused Egypt [Abode of slavery] to go astray in all of its works, like a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
15 Gũtirĩ wĩra ũngĩrutwo bũrũri-inĩ wa Misiri: gũtirĩ wĩra ũngĩrutwo nĩ mũtwe kana mũtingʼoe, kana rũhonge rwa mũnathi, kana ithanjĩ.
Neither shall there be any work for Egypt [Abode of slavery], which head or tail, palm branch or rush, may do.
16 Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, andũ a Misiri makahaana o ta andũ-a-nja. Makainaina nĩ guoya mona guoko kwa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe kwambararĩtio kũmookĩrĩre.
In that day the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] will be like women. They will tremble and fear because of the shaking of Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies]’s hand, which he shakes over them.
17 Naguo bũrũri wa Juda ũkaguoyohia andũ a Misiri; na mũndũ o wothe ũkaagweterwo ũhoro wa Juda nĩagetigĩra, nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ marĩa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe aciirĩire gwĩka amokĩrĩre.
The land of Judah [Praised] will become a terror to Egypt [Abode of slavery]. Everyone to whom mention is made of it will be afraid, because of the plans of Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], which he determines against it.
18 Mũthenya ũcio matũũra matano ma bũrũri wa Misiri makaaragia rũthiomi rwa Kaanani, makĩĩhĩtaga atĩ marĩtungatagĩra Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe. Na itũũra rĩmwe rĩamo rĩgeetagwo Itũũra Inene rĩa Mwanangĩko.
In that day, there will be five cities in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery] that speak the language of Canaan [Humbled], and swear to Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies]. One will be called “The city of destruction.”
19 Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, nĩgũkagĩa na kĩgongona kĩa Jehova o kũu gatagatĩ ka bũrũri wa Misiri, na kũhaandwo ihiga rĩa kĩririkano kĩa Jehova mĩhaka-inĩ yakuo.
In that day, there will be an altar to Adonai in the middle of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], and a pillar to Adonai at its border.
20 Ihiga rĩu rĩgaatuĩka kĩmenyithia na mũira wa maũndũ marĩa Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekĩte thĩinĩ wa bũrũri ũcio wa Misiri. Rĩrĩa magaakaĩra Jehova amateithie nĩ ũndũ wa andũ arĩa mamahinyagĩrĩria-rĩ, nĩakamatũmĩra mũhonokia na mũmagitĩri, nake nĩakamahonokia.
It will be for a sign and for a witness to Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery]; for they will cry to Adonai because of oppressors, and he will send them one to save and a defend them, and he will deliver them.
21 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova nĩakemenyithania kũrĩ andũ a Misiri, na mũthenya ũcio nĩmagakũũrana Jehova. Makaamũhooyaga makĩmũrutagĩra magongona na maruta ma mũtu: na ningĩ makehĩtaga mĩĩhĩtwa marĩ mbere ya Jehova na mamĩhingagie.
Adonai will be known to Egypt [Abode of slavery], and the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] will know Adonai in that day. Yes, they will worship with sacrifice and offering, and will vow a vow to Adonai, and will perform it.
22 Jehova nĩakahũũra bũrũri wa Misiri na mũthiro, amahũũre acooke amahonie. Nao nĩmagacookerera Jehova, nake nĩagathikĩrĩria gũthaithana kwao na amahonie.
Adonai will strike Egypt [Abode of slavery], striking and healing. They will make teshuvah ·complete return· to Adonai, and he will be entreated by them, and will heal them.
23 Mũthenya ũcio nĩgũkagĩa njĩra njariĩ yumĩte bũrũri wa Misiri ĩgakinya Ashuri. Andũ a Ashuri nĩmagathiiaga Misiri, na o andũ a Misiri mathiiage Ashuri. Andũ a Misiri na andũ a Ashuri nĩmakahooyaga hamwe.
In that day there will be a highway out of Egypt [Abode of slavery] to Assyria [Level plain], and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt [Abode of slavery], and the Egyptian [person from Abode of slavery] into Assyria [Level plain]; and the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery] will worship with the Assyrians.
24 Mũthenya ũcio bũrũri wa Isiraeli ũgaatuĩka wa gatatũ, hamwe na Misiri na Ashuri, nao nĩmagatũma thĩ yothe ĩrathimwo.
In that day, Israel [God prevails] will be the third with Egypt [Abode of slavery] and with Assyria [Level plain], a blessing within the earth;
25 Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩakamarathima akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ andũ akwa a Misiri, o na Aashuri arĩa ndeyũmbĩire, na Isiraeli igai rĩakwa.”
because Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] has blessed them, saying, “Blessed be Egypt [Abode of slavery] my people, Assyria [Level plain] the work of my hands, and Israel [God prevails] my inheritance.”
