< Isaia 26 >

1 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũcio rwĩmbo rũrũ nĩruo rũkainwo bũrũri wa Juda: Tũrĩ na itũũra inene rĩa hinya; Ngai atuuaga ũhonokio ũtuĩke thingo ciarĩo na njirigo ciarĩo cia hinya.
In that day they shall sing this song in the land of Judea; Behold a strong city; and he shall make salvation [its] wall and bulwark.
2 Hingũrai ihingo nĩguo rũrĩrĩ rũrĩa rũthingu rũtoonye, o rũrĩrĩ rũrĩa rũrũmagia wĩtĩkio.
Open ye the gates, let the nation enter that keeps righteousness, and keeps truth,
3 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ meciiria makindĩirie harĩwe-rĩ, nĩwe ũgaatũũria na thayũ mũkinyanĩru tondũ nĩakwĩhokete.
supporting truth, and keeping peace: for on thee, O Lord,
4 Tũũrai mwĩhokete Jehova nginya tene, nĩgũkorwo Jehova, o we Jehova, nĩwe Rwaro rwa Ihiga rwa tene na tene.
they have trusted with confidence for ever, the great, the eternal God;
5 Nĩanyiihagia andũ arĩa maikaraga kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, o na itũũra rĩrĩa itũũgĩru akarĩharũrũkia, akarĩharagania thĩ, agacooka akarĩtungumania rũkũngũ-inĩ.
who hast humbled and brought down them that dwell on high, thou shalt cast down strong cities, and bring them to the ground.
6 Magũrũ ma andũ makarĩrangĩrĩria; magũrũ ma andũ arĩa ahinyĩrĩrie, o na makinya ma arĩa athĩĩni.
And the feet of the meek and lowly shall trample them.
7 Njĩra ya andũ arĩa athingu nĩ nũngĩrĩru; nawe Jehova, Wee Mũthingu, nĩwe ũnyorokagia njĩra cia arĩa athingu.
The way of the godly is made straight: the way of the godly is also prepared.
8 Ĩĩ, ti-itherũ Jehova, nĩwe twetagĩrĩra o tũgĩthiiagĩra njĩra ya mawatho maku; ngoro ciitũ ciĩriragĩria rĩĩtwa rĩaku na ngumo yaku.
For the way of the Lord is judgment: we have hoped in thy name, and on the remembrance [of thee],
9 Ngoro yakwa nĩwe ĩĩriragĩria ũtukũ; rũciinĩ roho wakwa ũgakũnyootera. Rĩrĩa watuanĩra ciira wa kĩhooto gũkũ thĩ, andũ a mabũrũri mothe nĩmerutaga ũhoro wa ũthingu.
which our soul longs for: my spirit seeks thee very early in the morning, O God, for thy commandments are a light on the earth: learn righteousness, ye that dwell upon the earth.
10 O na andũ aaganu mangĩiguĩrwo tha, matiĩrutaga ũhoro wa ũthingu; o na marĩ bũrũri-inĩ wa arĩa arũngĩrĩru, mathiiaga o na mbere gwĩka ũũru, makaaga gũtĩĩa ũnene wa Jehova.
For the ungodly one is put down: no one who will not learn righteousness on the earth, shall be able to do the truth: let the ungodly be taken away, that he see not the glory of the Lord.
11 Wee Jehova-rĩ, guoko gwaku nĩ kwambararĩtio na igũrũ, no matingĩkuona o na atĩa. No rĩrĩ, reke mone kĩyo kĩrĩa ũrĩ nakĩo nĩ ũndũ wa andũ aku, nĩgeetha maconoke; mwaki ũrĩa ũigĩirwo thũ ciaku nĩũrekwo ũmacine.
O Lord, thine arm is exalted, yet they knew it not: but when they know they shall be ashamed: jealousy shall seize upon an untaught nation, and now fire shall devour the adversaries.
12 Wee Jehova-rĩ, nĩwe ũtũheaga thayũ; maũndũ marĩa mothe tũhingĩtie, nĩwe ũtwĩkĩire.
O Lord our God, give us peace: for thou hast rendered to us all things.
13 Wee Jehova, o Wee Ngai witũ, nĩ harĩ aathani angĩ manatwatha tiga wee, no rĩrĩ, rĩĩtwa rĩaku riiki norĩo tũtĩĩte.
O Lord our God, take possession of us: O Lord, we know not [any] other beside thee: we name thy name.
14 Na rĩrĩ, acio rĩu nĩmakuĩte, matigacooka gũtũũra muoyo; maroho macio matikariũka. Wee nĩwamaherithirie ũkĩmaananga; ningĩ ũgĩtũma mariganĩre biũ.
But the dead shall not see life, neither shall physicians by any means raise [them] up: therefore thou hast brought [wrath] upon [them], and slain [them], and hast taken away every male of them. Bring more evils upon them, O Lord;
15 Wee Jehova nĩũtũmĩte rũrĩrĩ rũu ruongerereke; ti-itherũ nĩwongereire rũrĩrĩ rũu, ũkarũingĩhia. Wee nĩwĩgĩĩrĩire na riiri, ũkaaramia mĩhaka yothe ya bũrũri.
bring more evils on the glorious ones of the earth.
16 Atĩrĩrĩ Jehova, mookire kũrĩ we rĩrĩa maarĩ na mathĩĩna; rĩrĩa wamaherithagia-rĩ, maahotaga o kũhooya na mĩheehũ.
Lord, in affliction I remembered thee; thy chastening was to us with small affliction.
17 O ta ũrĩa mũndũ-wa-nja arĩ na nda akiriĩ gũciara enyogondaga na agakaya nĩ ruo-rĩ, ũguo noguo twatariĩ tũrĩ mbere yaku, Wee Jehova.
And as a woman in travail draws nigh to be delivered, [and] cries out in her pain; so have we been to thy beloved.
18 Ithuĩ twatariĩ ta twarĩ nda, twenyogondaga nĩ ruo, no rĩrĩ, nĩ ta twaciarire o rũhuho. Gũtirĩ ũndũ o na ũrĩkũ wa kũhonokania twĩkĩte gũkũ thĩ, o na kana tũgaciara andũ arĩa maikaraga gũkũ thĩ.
We have conceived, O Lord, because of thy fear, and have been in pain, and have brought forth the breath of thy salvation, which we have wrought upon the earth: we shall not fall, but all that dwell upon the land shall fall.
19 No rĩrĩ, andũ aku arĩa makuĩte nĩmagatũũra muoyo; mĩĩrĩ yao nĩĩkariũka. Inyuĩ arĩa mũtũũraga rũkũngũ-inĩ, ũkĩrai na mwanĩrĩre nĩ gũkena. Ime rĩanyu rĩtariĩ ta ireera rĩa rũciinĩ; nayo thĩ nĩĩgacookia andũ arĩa akuũ muoyo.
The dead shall rise, and they that are in the tombs shall be raised, and they that are in the earth shall rejoice: for the dew from thee is healing to them: but the land of the ungodly shall perish.
20 Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ andũ akwa, thiĩi mũtoonye tũnyũmba twanyu na mwĩhingĩre; mwĩhithe kuo gwa kahinda kanini nginya mangʼũrĩ make mathire.
Go, my people, enter into thy closets, shut thy door, hide thyself for a little season, until the anger of the Lord have passed away.
21 Atĩrĩrĩ, Jehova nĩarooka oimĩte gĩikaro-inĩ gĩake, nĩguo aherithie andũ a gũkũ thĩ nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao. Nayo thĩ nĩĩkonania thakame ĩrĩa ĩitĩtwo kuo; ndĩgaacooka kũhitha andũ ayo arĩa moragĩtwo.
For, behold, the Lord is bringing wrath from [his] holy place upon the dwellers on the earth: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall not cover her slain.
