Isaia 2
1 Ũyũ nĩguo ũhoro ũrĩa Isaia mũrũ wa Amozu onire ũkoniĩ Juda na Jerusalemu:
The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 Matukũ-inĩ ma kũrigĩrĩria kĩrĩma kĩa hekarũ ya Jehova nĩgĩkahaandwo kĩrĩ kĩo kĩnene gatagatĩ ka irĩma iria ingĩ; nĩgĩkambarario igũrũ rĩa tũrĩma tũrĩa tũngĩ, nao andũ a ndũrĩrĩ nĩkuo magaathiiaga.
And it shall come to pass in the latter days, that the mountain of Jehovah’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
3 Ndũrĩrĩ nyingĩ nĩigathiĩ kuo ikiugaga atĩrĩ, “Ũkai, twambate tũthiĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Jehova, tũthiĩ nyũmba ya Ngai wa Jakubu. Nĩagatũruta ũhoro wa mĩthiĩre yake, nĩgeetha tũgeragĩre njĩra ciake.” Nĩgũkorwo Zayuni nĩgũkoima ũtaarani, nakuo Jerusalemu kuume ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova.
And many peoples shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
4 Nake nĩagatuithanagia ndũrĩrĩ ciira, na aiguithanie irĩndĩ nyingĩ. Hiũ ciao cia njora magaacithondeka ituĩke mĩraũ ya kũrĩma, namo matimũ mao mamathondeke matuĩke hiũ cia gũceeha mĩtĩ. Gũtirĩ rũrĩrĩ rũgaacooka kũrũa na rũrĩrĩ rũrĩa rũngĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora, o na kana merute ũhoro wa mbaara hĩndĩ ĩngĩ.
And he will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 Atĩrĩrĩ wee nyũmba ya Jakubu, ũkaai tũthiiage tũmũrĩkĩirwo nĩ ũtheri wa Jehova.
O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of Jehovah.
6 Wee nĩũtiganĩirie andũ aku, o acio a nyũmba ya Jakubu. Nao marũmĩtie mũno mĩtugo na irĩra cia andũ a mwena wa irathĩro; maragũraga ta Afilisti, na makagĩa thiritũ na andũ matooĩ Ngai.
For thou hast forsaken thy people the house of Jacob, because they are filled [with customs] from the east, and [are] soothsayers like the Philistines, and they strike hands with the children of foreigners.
7 Bũrũri wao ũiyũrĩte betha na thahabu, igĩĩna ciao itingĩthira. Bũrũri wao ũiyũrĩte mbarathi; na ngaari ciao cia ita itingĩtarĩka.
And their land is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures; their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
8 Bũrũri wao ũiyũrĩte mĩhianano ya kũhooywo; mainamagĩrĩra wĩra wa moko mao, o indo iria mathondekete na ciara ciao.
Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.
9 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũndũ nĩakaharũrũkio, nacio iruka cia andũ iconorithio; ndũkanamarekere.
And the mean man is bowed down, and the great man is brought low: therefore forgive them not.
10 Toonyai rwaro-inĩ rwa ihiga, mwĩhithe tĩĩri-inĩ mũũrĩre kĩmakania kĩa Jehova na riiri wa ũnene wake!
Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty.
11 Maitho ma mũndũ mwĩtĩĩi nĩmagaconorithio, naguo mwĩtĩĩo wa andũ nĩũkaharũrũkio; no Jehova we wiki nĩwe ũgaatũũgĩrio mũthenya ũcio.
The lofty looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
12 Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe arĩ na mũthenya aigĩte wa gũũkĩrĩra andũ arĩa othe etĩĩi na arĩa meĩkagĩrĩra, na arĩa othe metũũgagĩria (nao othe nĩmakanyiihio),
For there shall be a day of Jehovah of hosts upon all that is proud and haughty, and upon all that is lifted up; and it shall be brought low;
13 na okĩrĩre mĩtarakwa yothe ya Lebanoni, ĩrĩa mĩraihu na igũrũ na ĩkaneneha mũno, o na mĩgandi yothe ya Bashani,
and upon all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan,
14 na okĩrĩre irĩma iria ndaaya na igũrũ, na tũrĩma tuothe tũrĩa tũraihu.
and upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up,
15 na okĩrĩre mũthiringo o wothe mũraihu na igũrũ na rũthingo o ruothe rwakĩtwo rwa hinya,
and upon every lofty tower, and upon every fortified wall,
16 na okĩrĩre marikabu ciothe cia Tarishishi, na marikabu ciothe iria njega mũno.
and upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant imagery.
17 Mwĩtũũgĩrio wa mũndũ nĩũkaharũrũkio, na mwĩtĩĩo wa andũ ũconorithio; no Jehova we wiki nĩwe ũgaatũũgĩrio mũthenya ũcio,
And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
18 nayo mĩhianano ya kũhooywo nĩĩgathira biũ.
And the idols shall utterly pass away.
19 Andũ makoorĩra ngurunga-inĩ cia ndwaro cia mahiga, o na marima-inĩ ma thĩ, moorĩre kĩmakania kĩa Jehova na riiri wa ũnene wake, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa akaarũgama athingithie thĩ.
And men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake mightily the earth.
20 Mũthenya ũcio andũ makooya mĩhianano yao ya betha, na mĩhianano yao ya thahabu, ĩrĩa methondekeire mamĩhooyage, mamĩikĩrie huko na huhu.
In that day men shall cast away their idols of silver, and their idols of gold, which have been made for them to worship, to the moles and to the bats;
21 Nao makoorĩra ngurunga-inĩ cia ndwaro cia mahiga, na mahiga-inĩ marĩa macunjurĩte morĩre kĩmakania kĩa Jehova na riiri wa ũnene wake, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa akaarũgama, athingithie thĩ.
to go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of Jehovah, and from the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake mightily the earth.
22 Tiga kwĩhoka mũndũ, ũrĩa mĩhũmũ yake ĩrĩ o maniũrũ-inĩ make. Nĩ ũndũ-rĩ, akĩrĩ wa bata ũrĩkũ?
Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for wherein is he to be accounted of?
