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!”
When that happens, [there will be very few unmarried men still alive]. [As a result], seven [unmarried] women will grab one man, and say, “Allow us [all] to marry you [IDM]! We will provide our own food and clothing. All that we want is to no longer be disgraced [because of not being married].”
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!
[But] some day, Israel [MTY] will be [very] beautiful and great/glorious. The people of Israel who will still be there will be very proud of the wonderful fruit that grows in their land.
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 the people who will remain in Jerusalem, who were not killed when Jerusalem was destroyed, whose names are listed among those who live there, will be [called] holy.
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.
[That will happen when] Yahweh washes away the guilt of the women of Jerusalem, and when he stops the violence [MET] [on the streets of Jerusalem] by punishing [the people of Jerusalem]. When he does that, it will be like a fire to burn up all the impure things.
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 Yahweh will send a cloud of smoke every day and a flaming fire every night to cover Jerusalem and [all] those who gather there; it will be [like] a glorious canopy over the city
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.
that will shelter the people from the sun during the daytime and protect them when there are windstorms and rain.
