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 taken hold have seven women on one man, In that day, saying, 'Our own bread we do eat, And our own raiment we put on, Only, let thy name be called over us, Remove thou 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 is the Shoot of Jehovah for desire and for honour, And the fruit of the earth For excellence and for beauty to the 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 hath been, he who is left in Zion, And he who is remaining in Jerusalem, 'Holy' is said of him, Of every one who is written 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.
If the Lord hath washed away The filth of daughters of Zion, And the blood of Jerusalem purgeth from her midst, 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.
Then hath Jehovah prepared Over every fixed place of Mount Zion, And over her convocations, A cloud by day, and smoke, And the shining of a flaming fire by night, That, over all honour a safe-guard,
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 a covering may be, For a shadow by day from drought, And for a refuge, and for a hiding place, From inundation and from rain!
