Isaia 35

1 Atĩrĩ, werũ ũtarĩ kĩndũ na bũrũri ũrĩa mũũmũ nĩigakena; werũ nĩũgakena na ũcanũke. O ta mahũa ma nyeki-inĩ,

The desert and the wildernes shall reioyce: and the waste ground shalbe glad and florish as the rose.

2 werũ nĩũkaruta kĩro kĩingĩ; nĩũgakena mũno, na wanĩrĩre nĩ gũkena. Nĩũkaheo riiri o ta wa Lebanoni, na ũheo ũkengi o ta wa Karimeli, na wa Sharoni; nĩmakona riiri wa Jehova, na mone ũkengi wa Ngai witũ.

It shall florish abundantly and shall greatly reioyce also and ioye: the glory of Lebanon shalbe giuen vnto it: the beautie of Carmel, and of Sharon, they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the excellencie of our God.

3 Ĩkĩrai hinya moko marĩa maregeru, na maru marĩa maregerete mũtũme marũgame wega;

Strengthen the weake handes, and comfort the feeble knees.

4 andũ arĩa marĩ na guoya ngoro meerei atĩrĩ, “Mwĩyũmĩrĩriei, tigai gwĩtigĩra; atĩrĩ, Ngai wanyu nĩagooka, na agooka na ũhoro wa kũrĩhanĩria; nĩwe ũgooka na iherithia rĩa Ngai, ooke kũmũhonokia.”

Say vnto them that are fearefull, Bee you strong, feare not: beholde, your God commeth with vengeance: euen God with a recompense, he will come and saue you.

5 Hĩndĩ ĩyo maitho ma atumumu nĩmakahingũka, na matũ ma andũ arĩa mataiguaga macooke kũigua.

Then shall the eyes of the blinde be lightened, and the eares of the deafe be opened.

6 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũndũ ũrĩa ũthuaga nĩakarũgarũga ta thwariga, na rũrĩmĩ rũrĩa rũtaaragia rwanĩrĩre nĩ gũkena. Namo maaĩ nĩmagatherũka kuuma werũ-inĩ, natuo tũrũũĩ tũtherere werũ-inĩ wa mũthanga.

Then shall ye lame man leape as an hart, and the dumme mans tongue shall sing: for in the wildernes shall waters breake out, and riuers in ye desert.

7 Mũthanga ũrĩa mũhiũ ũgaatuĩka karia ka maaĩ, nayo thĩ ĩyo ngʼaru ĩtherũke ithima cia maaĩ. Imamo iria cianakomwo nĩ mbwe-rĩ, igaakũra nyeki, na ithanjĩ, o na marura.

And the dry ground shalbe as a poole, and the thirstie (as springs of water in the habitation of dragons: where they lay) shall be a place for reedes and rushes.

8 Nakuo kũu nĩgũkagĩa barabara njariĩ; nayo ĩgeetagwo Njĩra ĩrĩa Nyamũre. Andũ arĩa matarĩ atheru matikamĩgera; ĩgaakorwo ĩrĩ Njĩra ya andũ arĩa mamĩgeraga; nĩ ũndũ ũcio o na andũ akĩĩgu matikamĩhĩtia.

And there shalbe a path and a way, and the way shalbe called holy: the polluted shall not passe by it: for he shalbe with them, and walke in the way, and the fooles shall not erre.

9 Gũtirĩ mũrũũthi ũgaakorwo njĩra-inĩ ĩyo, o na kana nyamũ o yothe ndĩani ĩmĩgerere; nyamũ icio itikoonekana njĩra-inĩ ĩyo. No rĩrĩ, andũ arĩa makũũrĩtwo nĩo oiki makaamĩgerera,

There shall be no lyon, nor noysome beastes shall ascend by it, neither shall they be found there, that the redeemed may walke.

10 nao andũ arĩa akũũre a Jehova nĩmagacooka. Magaatoonya Zayuni makĩinaga; nao nĩmageekĩrwo thũmbĩ ya gĩkeno gĩa tene na tene. Magaakena na macanjamũke, nakĩo kĩeha o na mũcaayo nĩigathira biũ.

Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall returne and come to Zion with prayse: and euerlasting ioy shall bee vpon their heads: they shall obteine ioye and gladnesse, and sorow and mourning shall flee away.
