< 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!”
And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to 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 branch of the LORD be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be the pride and glory of 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.
And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written among the living 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 shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst of it by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.
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.
And the LORD will create upon every dwelling place of mount Zion, and upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night: for upon all the glory shall be a defence.
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.
And there shall be a tabernacle for shade in the daytime from the heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a covert from storm and from rain.
