< Isaia 4 >

1 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũcio andũ-a-nja mũgwanja makaanyiita mũndũ mũrũme ũmwe, mamwĩre atĩrĩ, “Tũrĩrĩĩaga irio ciitũ ithuĩ ene, na twĩheage nguo; no ũreke twĩtanagio nawe. Twehererie thoni ciitũ!”
In that day shall seven women lay hold of one man saying: We will eat our own bread, And wear our own garments, Only let us be called by thy name, And take away our reproach!
2 Mũthenya ũcio Thuuna ya Jehova nĩĩgathakara na ĩgĩe riiri, namo maciaro ma bũrũri ũcio magaakorwo marĩ mega, na marĩ mwĩraho na riiri wa arĩa magaakorwo marĩ matigari kũu Isiraeli!
In that day shall the increase of Jehovah be glorious and honorable, And the fruit of the land excellent and beautiful, For them that have escaped of Israel.
3 Na rĩrĩ, nĩgũgakinya atĩrĩ, andũ arĩa magaatigwo Zayuni, na arĩa magaakorwo matigaire Jerusalemu, mageetagwo atheru, nao nĩ arĩa othe maandĩkĩtwo na magaathĩrĩrwo gũtũũra muoyo kũu Jerusalemu.
All that remain in Zion, And all that are left in Jerusalem, Shall be called holy; Every one that is written down for life in Jerusalem.
4 Mwathani nĩagathambia gĩko kĩrĩa kĩũru kĩa andũ-a-nja a Zayuni; nĩagatheria Jerusalemu marooro ma thakame arĩ na roho wa gũtuanĩra ciira o na roho wa gũcina na mwaki.
When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, And have removed the blood of Jerusalem from the midst of her, By a spirit of judgment and a spirit of destruction,
5 Ningĩ Jehova nĩagatũma itu rĩa ndogo rĩgĩe kũndũ guothe mũthenya kũrĩa gũikarĩtwo nĩ andũ kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩu gĩa Zayuni, na atũme kũrĩa kũnganĩtwo gwakane rũrĩrĩmbĩ rwa mwaki ũtukũ; igũrũ rĩa riiri ũcio wothe gũgaakorwo taarĩ hema.
Then shall Jehovah create upon the whole extent of mount Zion, and upon her places of assembly, A cloud and smoke by day, And the brightness of a flaming fire by night; Yea, for all that is glorious there shall be a shelter;
6 Ĩgaatuĩka ta gĩthũnũ gĩa kũrehe kĩĩruru gĩa kwĩgitia kuuma kũrĩ ũrugarĩ wa mũthenya, na handũ ha kũũrĩra na ha kwĩgitia kuuma kũrĩ kĩhuhũkanio kĩa rũhuho na kĩa mbura.
There shall be a tent by day for a shadow from the heat, And for a refuge and shelter from the storm and rain.
