< Isaia 22 >

1 Ĩno nĩyo ndũmĩrĩri nditũ ĩkoniĩ Gĩtuamba gĩa Kĩoneki: Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩ kĩĩ kĩragũthĩĩnia rĩu, tondũ andũ aku othe marahaica nyũmba igũrũ,
The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee nowe that thou art wholy gone vp vnto the house toppes?
2 wee itũũra rĩiyũrĩte ngũĩ, o wee itũũra inene rĩa mbugĩrĩrio na ũrĩĩu? Andũ aku arĩa makuĩte matiũragĩtwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, kana magakuĩra mbaara-inĩ.
Thou that art full of noise, a citie full of brute, a ioyous citie: thy slaine men shall not bee slaine with sworde, nor die in battell.
3 Atongoria aku othe nĩmorĩte marĩ hamwe; maatahirwo o na hatarĩ mũguĩ ũikĩtio. Andũ aku othe arĩa maakorereirwo moohirwo hamwe, o acio mooraga thũ ĩrĩ o kũraya.
All thy princes shall flee together from the bowe: they shalbe bound: all that shall be found in thee, shall be bound together, which haue fled from farre.
4 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngiuga atĩrĩ, “Njeherera; reke ndĩre ngĩgirĩkaga. Ndũkagerie kũũhooreria igũrũ rĩa mwanangĩko ũrĩa ũkorete andũ akwa.”
Therefore said I, Turne away from me: I wil weepe bitterly: labour not to comfort mee for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
5 Mwathani, o we Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, arĩ na mũthenya ũrĩa agaatũma ũtuĩke wa mbugĩrĩrio, na wa kũranganĩrĩria, o na wa kũguoyohia kũu Gĩtuamba-inĩ gĩa Kĩoneki. Mũthenya ũcio ũgaakorwo ũrĩ wa kũmomora thingo igwe thĩ, na wa gũkaĩra irĩma.
For it is a day of trouble, and of ruine, and of perplexitie by the Lord God of hostes in the valley of vision, breaking downe the citie: and a crying vnto the mountaines.
6 Andũ a Elamu nĩmakuuĩte thiaka wa mĩguĩ, marĩ na ngaari cia ita na andũ mahaicĩte mbarathi; o nao andũ a Kiri macuurũragia ngo.
And Elam bare the quiuer in a mans charet with horsemen, and Kir vncouered the shield.
7 Ituamba ciaku iria njega mũno ciyũrĩte ngaari cia ita, nao andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi maigĩtwo ihingo-inĩ cia itũũra inene;
And thy chiefe valleis were full of charets, and the horsemen set themselues in aray against the gate.
8 naguo ũgitĩri wa Juda nĩweheretio. Mũthenya ũcio nĩmwacũthĩrĩirie indo cia mbaara iria ciarĩ Nyũmba-inĩ ya Ũnene ya Mũtitũ;
And hee discouered the couering of Iudah: and thou didest looke in that day to the armour of the house of the forest.
9 mũkĩona atĩ thingo cia ũgitĩri cia Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi nĩciatharũkĩte kũndũ kũingĩ; na inyuĩ mũkĩhingĩrĩria maaĩ Karia ka Mũhuro.
And ye haue seene the breaches of the citie of Dauid: for they were many, and ye gathered the waters of the lower poole.
10 Nĩmwatarire nyũmba kũu Jerusalemu, na mũgĩtharia nyũmba nĩguo muone mahiga ma gũcookereria rũthingo rũgĩe na hinya makĩria.
And yee nombred the houses of Ierusalem, and the houses haue yee broken downe to fortifie the wall,
11 Nĩmwakire handũ ha kũhingĩrĩria maaĩ gatagatĩ ga thingo cierĩ, nĩgeetha maaĩ ma Karia ga Tene mathiiage ho, no mũtiigana kũrongooria Ũrĩa wagathondekire, kana mũrũmbũiye Ũrĩa watũmire kagĩe ho kuuma o tene.
And haue also made a ditche betweene the two walles, for the waters of the olde poole, and haue not looked vnto the maker thereof, neither had respect vnto him that formed it of olde.
12 Mwathani, o we Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, nĩamwĩtire mũthenya ũcio nĩguo mũrĩre na mũgirĩke, na mwenjwo njuĩrĩ cianyu na mwĩhumbe nguo cia ikũnia.
And in that day did the Lord God of hosts call vnto weeping and mourning, and to baldnes and girding with sackecloth.
13 No rĩrĩ, inyuĩ mũrĩ na gĩkeno na ũrĩĩu, mũrathĩnja ngʼombe na ngʼondu, mũkĩrĩĩaga nyama na mũkĩnyuuaga ndibei! Mũgakiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũrĩe na tũnyue, nĩgũkorwo rũciũ nĩtũgaakua!”
And beholde, ioy and gladnes, slaying oxen and killing sheepe, eating flesh, and drinking wine, eating and drinking: for to morowe we shall die.
14 Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe nĩanguũrĩirie ũhoro ũyũ ndĩmũthikĩrĩirie, akoiga atĩrĩ, “Rĩĩhia rĩrĩ mũtikahoroherio nginya mũgaakua,” ũguo nĩguo Mwathani, o we Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, ekuuga.
And it was declared in ye eares of the Lord of hostes. Surely this iniquitie shall not be purged from you, til ye die, saith the Lord God of hostes.
15 Na rĩrĩ, Mwathani Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Thiĩ kũrĩ Shebina, ũrĩa mũramati na mũrũgamĩrĩri wa nyũmba ya ũthamaki, ũmwĩre atĩrĩ:
Thus sayeth the Lord God of hostes, Goe, get thee to that treasurer, to Shebna, the steward of the house, and say,
16 Ũreka atĩa gũkũ na nũũ ũgwĩtĩkĩrĩtie kwĩyenjera mbĩrĩra gũkũ, ũgetemera mbĩrĩra handũ hatũũgĩru, na ũkeyacũhĩria harĩa ũkaahurũkio rwaro-inĩ rwa ihiga?
What haste thou to doe here? and whome hast thou here? that thou shouldest here hewe thee out a sepulchre, as he that heweth out his sepulchre in an hie place, or that graueth an habitation for him selfe in a rocke?
17 “Wĩhũũge, tondũ Jehova akiriĩ gũkũnyiita akũrũmĩtie, acooke akũnyugute, wee mũndũ ũyũ ũrĩ hinya.
Beholde, the Lord wil carie thee away with a great captiuitie, and will surely couer thee.
18 Nĩagagũkũnja akũrũmie o ta mũbira, agũikie bũrũri mwariĩ. Kũu nĩkuo ũgaakuĩra, na nokuo ngaari ciaku cia ita iria irĩ riiri igaikara: wee ũconorithagia nyũmba ya mwathi waku!
He wil surely rolle and turne thee like a bal in a large countrey: there shalt thou die, and there the charets of thy glory shalbe the shame of thy lordes house.
19 Nĩngakũingata wehere wĩra-inĩ waku na ũtunywo wĩra ũcio ũrũgamĩrĩire.
And I wil driue thee from thy station, and out of thy dwelling will he destroy thee.
20 “Mũthenya ũcio nĩngeeta ndungata yakwa, Eliakimu mũrũ wa Hilikia.
And in that day will I call my seruant Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah,
21 Nĩngamũhumba nguo yaku ĩrĩa ndaaya na ndĩmũhotore mũcibi waku, na ndĩmũnengere wathani waku. Nĩagatuĩka ithe wa arĩa matũũraga Jerusalemu o na wa nyũmba ya Juda.
And with thy garments will I clothe him, and with thy girdle will I strengthen him: thy power also will I commit into his hande, and hee shalbe a father of the inhabitats of Ierusalem, and of the house of Iudah.
22 Kĩhingũro kĩa nyũmba ya Daudi ngaakĩigĩrĩra kĩande-inĩ gĩake; na rĩrĩ, kĩrĩa gĩothe akaahingũra gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaahota kũhinga, na kĩrĩa gĩothe akaahinga gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaahota kũhingũra.
And the key of the house of Dauid will I lay vpon his shoulder: so hee shall open, and no man shall shut: and he shall shut, and no man shall open.
23 Ngaamuoherera handũ harũmu aikare ho ta higĩ hũũrĩrĩre; atuĩke gĩtĩ gĩa gĩtĩĩo thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya ithe.
And I will fasten him as a naile in a sure place, and hee shall be for the throne of glorie to his fathers house.
24 Nĩwe ũgaacookererwo nĩ riiri wothe wa nyũmba ya ithe ta ũcuurĩtio harĩ we: ciana ciake na iria ikeyongerera thĩinĩ wa ciana icio, o indo ciothe ciayo iria cionekaga ta itarĩ kĩene, kuuma mbakũri nginya mĩthemba yothe ya ndigithũ.”
And they shall hang vpon him all the glorie of his fathers house, euen of the nephewes and posteritie all small vessels, from the vessels of the cuppes, euen to all the instruments of musike.
25 Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Mũthenya ũcio higĩ ĩrĩa thecerere handũ harũmu nĩĩkenyenya; nĩĩkamunyũka ĩgwe, na indo iria njuurie harĩ yo nĩikaharagana.” Jehova nĩwe warĩtie ũhoro ũcio.
In that day, sayeth the Lord of hostes, shall the naile, that is fastned in the sure place, depart and shall be broken, and fall: and the burden, that was vpon it, shall bee cut off: for the Lord hath spoken it.
