Isaia 32
1 Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩgũkagĩa mũthamaki wa gũthamaka na ũthingu, na kũgĩe na anene a gwathana na kĩhooto.
Look, a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in justice.
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.
A man shall be as a hiding place from the wind, and a shelter from the storm, as streams of water in a dry place, as the shade of a large rock in a weary land.
3 Namo maitho ma andũ arĩa moonaga matikaahingwo mage kuona, namo matũ ma arĩa maiguaga nĩmagathikĩrĩria.
The eyes of those who see will not be dim, and the ears of those who hear will listen.
4 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũhĩkaga gwĩka maũndũ ateciirĩtie wega, nĩakamenya maũndũ na ataũkĩrwo nĩmo, naruo rũrĩmĩ rũrĩa rũtondoiraga nĩrũkaaria o wega.
The heart of the rash will understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly.
5 Gũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ mũndũ mũkĩĩgu agaacooka kũgĩa igweta, kana kĩmaramari gĩcooke gũtĩĩo mũno.
And they will no longer call a fool noble, nor the scoundrel be highly respected.
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.
For the fool will speak folly, and his heart plans iniquity, to practice profanity, and to utter error against Jehovah, To make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
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.
The ways of the scoundrel are evil. He devises wicked devices to destroy the humble with lying words, even when the needy speaks right.
8 No rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũrĩa mũtaana eciiragia o maũndũ ma ũtugi, na maũndũ macio ma ũtugi nĩmo egũtũũra ekaga.
But the noble devises noble things; and he will continue in noble things.
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 up, you women who are at ease. Hear my voice. You careless daughters, give ear to my speech.
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.
For days beyond a year you will be troubled, you careless women; for the vintage shall fail. The harvest won't come.
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.
Tremble, you women who are at ease. Be troubled, you careless ones. Strip yourselves, make yourselves naked, and put sackcloth on your waist.
12 Mwĩhũũrei ithũri, mũrĩrĩre mĩgũnda yanyu ĩrĩa mĩega, o na mĩthabibũ ĩrĩa ĩciaraga mũno,
Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful 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.
Thorns and briars will come up on my people's land; yes, on all the houses of joy in the joyous city.
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,
For the palace will be forsaken. The populous city will be deserted. The hill and the watchtower will be for dens forever, a delight for wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks;
15 nginya rĩrĩa tũgaitĩrĩrio Roho kuuma igũrũ, naguo werũ ũgarũrwo ũtuĩke mũgũnda mũnoru, na mũgũnda ũcio mũnoru ũhaane ta mũtitũ.
Until the Spirit is poured on us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, and the fruitful field is considered a forest.
16 Ciira ũgaatũũra ũtuagwo na kĩhooto kũu werũ-inĩ, naguo ũthingu ũtũũre kũu mũgũnda-inĩ ũcio mũnoru.
Then justice will dwell in the wilderness; and righteousness will remain in the fruitful field.
17 Maciaro ma ũthingu ũcio nĩ thayũ; naguo uumithio wa ũthingu ũgaakorwo ũrĩ ũhooreri na kwĩhoka Ngai nginya tene.
The work of righteousness will be peace; and the effect of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
18 Andũ akwa magaatũũraga ciikaro cia thayũ, matũũre kũndũ gũtarĩ ũgwati, na mahurũkage kũndũ gũtarĩ na thĩĩna.
My people will abide in a peaceful habitation, in safe dwellings, and in quiet resting places.
19 O na mbura ya mbembe ĩngĩgũithia mĩtĩ ya mũtitũ thĩ, narĩo itũũra inene rĩaraganio biũ-rĩ,
And it will hail when the forest comes down, and the wood is brought low in humiliation.
20 kaĩ inyuĩ nĩmũkarathimwo-ĩ, mũhaandage mbegũ cianyu gũkuhĩ na tũrũũĩ, nacio ngʼombe na ndigiri cianyu irĩithagio kũndũ guothe.
Blessed are you who sow beside all waters, who set free the foot of the ox and the donkey.
