Isaia 33
1 Atĩrĩrĩ wee mwanangi ũyũ, o wee ũtarĩ wanangwo, kaĩ ũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! Wee mũkunyanĩri ũyũ, o wee ũtarĩ wakunyanĩrwo, kaĩ ũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! Rĩrĩa ũgaatiga kwanangana, nĩguo nawe ũkaanangwo, na ningĩ rĩrĩa ũgaatiga gũkunyanĩra, nĩguo nawe ũgaakunyanĩrwo.
Woe to them that afflict you; but no one makes you miserable: and he that deals perfidiously with you does not deal perfidiously: they that deal perfidiously shall be taken and given up, and as a moth on a garment, so shall they be spoiled.
2 Wee Jehova, tũiguĩre tha; wee nĩwe twetagĩrĩra. Tuĩka hinya witũ rũciinĩ o rũciinĩ, na ũtuĩke ũhonokio witũ hĩndĩ ya mĩnyamaro.
Lord, have mercy upon us; for we have trusted in you: the seed of the rebellious is gone to destruction, but our deliverance was in a time of affliction.
3 Andũ nĩ kũũra mooraga maigua mũrurumo wa mũgambo waku; warahũka-rĩ, ndũrĩrĩ nĩihurunjũkaga.
By reason of the terrible sound the nations were dismayed for fear of you, and the heathen were scattered.
4 Indo cianyu iria igaakorwo itahĩtwo, inyuĩ ndũrĩrĩ, ikoingũrũrio itahwo, o ta ũrĩa ciana cia ngigĩ ciũngũrũragia; andũ magaacitharĩkĩra ta ũrĩa mĩrumbĩ ya ngigĩ ĩtharĩkagĩra mĩgũnda.
And now shall the spoils of your small and great be gathered: as if one should gather locusts, so shall they mock you.
5 Jehova nĩatũũgĩrĩtio, nĩgũkorwo atũũraga igũrũ; nake nĩakaiyũria Zayuni na ciira wa kĩhooto na ũthingu.
The God who dwells on high is holy: Sion is filled with judgment and righteousness.
6 Nĩwe ũgaatuĩka gĩtina kĩrũmu matukũ-inĩ maku, na atuĩke kĩgĩĩna kĩa ũhoro mũingĩ wa ũhonokio, na ũũgĩ, na ũmenyi wa maũndũ; na ũhoro wa gwĩtigĩra Jehova nĩguo ũgaakorwo ũrĩ mũthiithũ wa ma.
They shall be delivered up to the law: our salvation is our treasure: there are wisdom and knowledge and piety toward the Lord; these are the treasures of righteousness.
7 Atĩrĩrĩ, andũ ao arĩa njamba mararĩrĩra njĩra-inĩ maanĩrĩire; nao mabarũthi mao ma thayũ maraarĩra na kĩgirĩko kĩnene.
Behold now, these shall be terrified with fear of you: those whom you feared shall cry out because of you: messengers shall be sent, bitterly weeping, entreating for peace.
8 Barabara iria njariĩ itigĩtwo itarĩ andũ, na agendi magatiga kũgerera njĩra icio. Kĩrĩkanĩro kĩrĩa maarĩkanĩire nĩgĩthũkie, na aira a kĩo makanyararwo, gũtirĩ o na mũndũ ũmwe ũraheo gĩtĩĩo.
For the ways of these shall be made desolate: the terror of the nations has been made to cease, and the covenant with these is taken away, and you shall by no means deem them men.
9 Bũrũri nĩũracakaya na ũgathirĩrĩkĩra, nakuo kũu Lebanoni nĩgũconorithĩtio na mĩtĩ yakuo ĩkahooha. Sharoni nakuo kũhanĩte ta werũ wa Araba, nakuo Bashani na Karimeli gũgaita mathangũ makuo.
The land mourns; Libanus is ashamed: Saron is become marshes; Galilee shall be laid bare, and Chermel.
10 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩu nĩngwarahũka, rĩu nĩngũtũũgĩrio; rĩu nĩngwambarario na igũrũ.
Now will I arise, says the Lord, now will I be glorified; now will I be exalted.
11 Inyuĩ mũkaagĩa nda cia maragara, mũciare rũũa rwa ngano; nayo mĩhũmũ yanyu ĩtuĩkĩte mwaki wa kũmũcina.
Now shall you see, now shall you perceive; the strength of your breath, shall be vain; fire shall devour you.
12 Andũ a ndũrĩrĩ magaacinwo mahaane ta coka; magaacinwo na mwaki o ta ihinga cia mĩigua itemetwo.”
And the nations shall be burnt up; as a thorn in the field cast out and burnt up.
13 Atĩrĩrĩ inyuĩ andũ arĩa mũrĩ kũraya, ta thikĩrĩriai mũigue ũrĩa njĩkĩte; na inyuĩ mũrĩ gũkuhĩ umbũrai ũhoro wa hinya wakwa.
They that are afar off shall hear what I have done; they that draw near shall know my strength.
14 Ehia arĩa marĩ kũu Zayuni nĩmamakĩte; nao andũ arĩa matooĩ Ngai nĩkũinaina marainaina, makoiga atĩrĩ, “Nũũ witũ ũngĩtũũrania na mwaki ũrĩa ũcinanaga? Ningĩ nũũ witũ ũngĩtũũrania na mwaki ũtakahora nginya tene?”
The sinners in Sion have departed; trembling shall seize the ungodly. Who will tell you that a fire is kindled? Who will tell you of the eternal place?
15 Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũthiiaga na mĩthiĩre ya ũthingu na akaaria ũhoro ũrĩa wagĩrĩire, o we ũtangĩoya uumithio uumanĩte na ũhinyanĩrĩria, na akagirĩrĩria guoko gwake kwamũkĩre mahaki, o ũcio ũgiragĩrĩria matũ make kũigua ndeto cia gũciirĩra ũragani, na akahinga maitho make matikerorere maũndũ mooru.
He that walks in righteousness, speaking rightly, hating transgression and iniquity, and shaking his hands from gifts, stopping his ears that he should not hear the judgment of blood, shutting his eyes that he should not see injustice.
16 Ũcio nĩwe mũndũ ũrĩa ũgaatũũra kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, ũrĩa kĩĩhitho gĩake gĩgaakorwo kĩrĩ kĩirigo kĩrũmu kũu kĩrĩma-inĩ. Nĩakaheagwo irio ciake, na maaĩ make gũtirĩ hĩndĩ makaaga.
he shall dwell in a high cave of a strong rock: bread shall be given him, and his water shall be sure.
17 Maitho maku nĩmakeyonera mũthamaki arĩ na riiri wake wothe, na wĩrorere bũrũri waramĩte, ũgatambũrũka kũraya ma.
You shall see a king with glory: your eyes shall behold a land from afar.
18 Meciiria-inĩ maku nĩũgecũrania ũhoro wa kĩmakania kĩrĩa kĩarĩ ho hau mbere, ũrie atĩrĩ: “Mũtongoria ũrĩa mũnene arĩ ha? Nake mũndũ ũrĩa wamũkagĩra mbeeca cia igooti rĩa bũrũri arĩ ha? Nake mũnene ũrĩa ũrũgamagĩrĩra mĩthiringo ĩrĩa mĩraihu na igũrũ arĩ ha?”
Your soul shall meditate terror. Where are the scribes? where are the counselors, where is he that numbers them that are growing up,
19 Andũ acio ndũrĩka ndũgacooka kũmona rĩngĩ, o acio maaragia mĩario ĩtangĩiguĩka, na makaaria na rũthiomi rũgeni rũtangĩmenyeka.
[even] the small and great people? with whom he took not counsel, neither did he understand [a people] of deep speech, so that a despised people should not hear, and there is no understanding to him that hears.
20 Ta rora Zayuni, itũũra rĩrĩa inene rĩa maruga maitũ; maitho maku nĩmakona Jerusalemu, gĩikaro gĩa thayũ, nĩyo hema ĩrĩa ĩtakenyenyeka; higĩ ciayo itirĩ hĩndĩ ikaamunywo, o na kana mũkanda o na ũmwe wayo ũtuĩke.
Behold the city of Sion, our refuge: your eyes shall behold Jerusalem, a rich city, tabernacles which shall not be shaken, neither shall the pins of her tabernacle be moved for ever, neither shall her cords be at all broken:
21 Kũu nĩkuo Jehova Mwene-Hinya agaakorwo hamwe na ithuĩ. Nakuo kũu gũgaatuĩka ta kũndũ kwa njũũĩ njariĩ, o na tũrũũĩ, njũũĩ itakagererio marikabu cia mbaara, kana igererio marikabu iria nene cia iria-inĩ.
for the name of the Lord is great to you: you shall have a place, [even] rivers and wide and spacious channels: you shall not go this way, neither a vessel with oars go [thereby].
22 Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩwe wa gũtua ciira, Jehova nĩwe mũtwathi, Jehova nĩwe mũthamaki witũ: we nĩwe ũgaatũhonokia.
For my God is great: the Lord our judge shall not pass me by: the Lord is our prince, the Lord is our king; the Lord, he shall save us.
23 Mĩkanda yaku nĩmĩregeru, na mũtĩ ũrĩa mũraaya wa marikabu ti mũrũmu, naguo taama wa kũmĩtwarithia timũtambũrũku. Hĩndĩ ĩyo indo nyingĩ cia ndaho nĩ ikaagayanwo, o na andũ arĩa mathuaga nĩmagekuuĩra indo cia ndaho.
Your cords are broken, for they had no strength: your meat has given way, it shall not spread the sails, it shall not bear a signal, until it be given up for plunder; therefore shall many lame men take spoil.
24 Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũtũũraga Zayuni ũkoiga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩ mũrũaru”; nao andũ arĩa matũũraga kuo nĩmakarekerwo mehia mao.
And the people dwelling among them shall by no means say, I am in pain: for their sin shall be forgiven them.
