< Isaia 32 >

1 Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩgũkagĩa mũthamaki wa gũthamaka na ũthingu, na kũgĩe na anene a gwathana na kĩhooto.
Behold, a King shall reigne in iustice, and the princes shall rule in iudgement.
2 O mũndũ agaatuĩka ta handũ ha kwĩgitia rũhuho, na ha kwĩyũa mbura ya kĩhuhũkanio, o na atuĩke ta tũrũũĩ twa maaĩ tũgũtherera werũ-inĩ, o na ta kĩĩruru kĩa rwaro rũnene rwa ihiga bũrũri-inĩ ũrĩ na nyoota.
And that man shall bee as an hiding place from the winde, and as a refuge for the tempest: as riuers of water in a drie place, and as the shadowe of a great rocke in a weary land.
3 Namo maitho ma andũ arĩa moonaga matikaahingwo mage kuona, namo matũ ma arĩa maiguaga nĩmagathikĩrĩria.
The eyes of the seeing shall not be shut, and the eares of them that heare, shall hearken.
4 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũhĩkaga gwĩka maũndũ ateciirĩtie wega, nĩakamenya maũndũ na ataũkĩrwo nĩmo, naruo rũrĩmĩ rũrĩa rũtondoiraga nĩrũkaaria o wega.
And the heart of the foolish shall vnderstand knowledge, and the tongue of the stutters shalbe ready to speake distinctly.
5 Gũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ mũndũ mũkĩĩgu agaacooka kũgĩa igweta, kana kĩmaramari gĩcooke gũtĩĩo mũno.
A nigard shall no more be called liberall, nor the churle riche.
6 Nĩgũkorwo mũndũ mũkĩĩgu aragia ũrimũ, na meciiria make mathugundaga maũndũ mooru: Mũndũ ũcio ekaga maũndũ matarĩ ma ũ-ngai, na akamemerekia maũndũ ma gũcambia Jehova; arĩa ahũtu amatigaga matarĩ na gĩa kũrĩa, na arĩa anyootu akamaima maaĩ ma kũnyua.
But the nigarde will speake of nigardnesse, and his heart will worke iniquitie, and do wickedly, and speake falsely against the Lord, to make emptie the hungrie soule, and to cause the drinke of the thirstie to faile.
7 Mĩthiĩre ya mũndũ kĩmaramari no ya waganu, athugundaga o maũndũ mooru ma kũniinithia andũ arĩa athĩĩni na ũhoro wa maheeni, o na rĩrĩa mathaithana ma mũbatari marĩ ma kĩhooto.
For the weapons of the churle are wicked: hee deuiseth wicked counsels, to vndoe the poore with lying words: and to speake against the poore in iudgement.
8 No rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũrĩa mũtaana eciiragia o maũndũ ma ũtugi, na maũndũ macio ma ũtugi nĩmo egũtũũra ekaga.
But the liberall man will deuise of liberall things, and he will continue his liberalitie.
9 Atĩrĩrĩ inyuĩ andũ-a-nja aya mũtarĩ ũndũ ũmũthĩĩnagia, arahũkai mũthikĩrĩrie mũgambo wakwa; o na inyuĩ airĩtu aya mũtarĩ ũndũ mwĩtigagĩra, ta iguai ũrĩa nguuga!
Rise vp, ye women that are at ease: heare my voyce, ye carelesse daughters: hearken to my wordes.
10 Mwaka na matukũ matarĩ maingĩ maathira-rĩ, inyuĩ mũtarĩ ũndũ mwĩtigagĩra, nĩmũkainaina; nĩgũkorwo gũtigakorwo na magetha ma thabibũ, o na kana gũkorwo na magetha mangĩ.
Yee women, that are carelesse, shall be in feare aboue a yeere in dayes: for the vintage shall faile, and the gatherings shall come no more.
11 Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ andũ-a-nja aya mũtarĩ ũndũ ũmũthĩĩnagia, inainai nĩ kũmaka; inainai inyuĩ airĩtu aya mũtarĩ ũndũ mwĩtigagĩra! Rutai nguo cianyu mũtigwo njaga, mũcooke mwĩohe makũnia njohero.
Yee women, that are at ease, be astonied: feare, O yee carelesse women: put off the clothes: make bare, and girde sackcloth vpon the loynes.
12 Mwĩhũũrei ithũri, mũrĩrĩre mĩgũnda yanyu ĩrĩa mĩega, o na mĩthabibũ ĩrĩa ĩciaraga mũno,
Men shall lament for the teates, euen for the pleasant fieldes, and for the fruitefull vine.
13 na mũrĩrĩre bũrũri wa andũ akwa, ũcio ũmerete mĩigua na congʼe: ĩĩ ti-itherũ, cakaĩrai nyũmba ciothe cia ikeno, na itũũra rĩrĩa inene rĩrĩ na ndũhiũ cia arĩĩu.
Vpon the lande of my people shall growe thornes and briers: yea, vpon all the houses of ioye in the citie of reioysing,
14 Nĩgũkorwo ciĩgitĩro iria nũmu nĩigatiganĩrio, narĩo itũũra rĩu inene rĩiyũrĩte andũ rĩtigwo ũtheri; o na nyũmba ya mũthamaki na mũthiringo mũraihu igaatuĩka bũrũri ũteanĩirio nginya tene, gũtuĩke bũrũri wa gũtũũhagwo nĩ ndigiri, na ũrĩithio wa ndũũru cia mbũri,
Because the palace shalbe forsaken, and the noise of the citie shalbe left: the towre and fortresse shalbe dennes for euer, and the delite of wilde asses, and a pasture for flockes,
15 nginya rĩrĩa tũgaitĩrĩrio Roho kuuma igũrũ, naguo werũ ũgarũrwo ũtuĩke mũgũnda mũnoru, na mũgũnda ũcio mũnoru ũhaane ta mũtitũ.
Vntill the Spirit be powred vpon vs from aboue, and the wildernes become a fruitfull fielde, and the plenteous fielde be counted as a forest.
16 Ciira ũgaatũũra ũtuagwo na kĩhooto kũu werũ-inĩ, naguo ũthingu ũtũũre kũu mũgũnda-inĩ ũcio mũnoru.
And iudgement shall dwel in the desert, and iustice shall remaine in the fruitfull fielde.
17 Maciaro ma ũthingu ũcio nĩ thayũ; naguo uumithio wa ũthingu ũgaakorwo ũrĩ ũhooreri na kwĩhoka Ngai nginya tene.
And the worke of iustice shall bee peace, euen the worke of iustice and quietnesse, and assurance for euer.
18 Andũ akwa magaatũũraga ciikaro cia thayũ, matũũre kũndũ gũtarĩ ũgwati, na mahurũkage kũndũ gũtarĩ na thĩĩna.
And my people shall dwell in the tabernacle of peace, and in sure dwellings, and in safe resting places.
19 O na mbura ya mbembe ĩngĩgũithia mĩtĩ ya mũtitũ thĩ, narĩo itũũra inene rĩaraganio biũ-rĩ,
When it haileth, it shall fall on the forest, and the citie shall be set in the lowe place.
20 kaĩ inyuĩ nĩmũkarathimwo-ĩ, mũhaandage mbegũ cianyu gũkuhĩ na tũrũũĩ, nacio ngʼombe na ndigiri cianyu irĩithagio kũndũ guothe.
Blessed are ye that sowe vpon all waters, and driue thither the feete of the oxe and the asse.
