Isaia 44
1 “No rĩrĩ, ta thikĩrĩria, wee Jakubu, ndungata yakwa, o we Isiraeli, ũrĩa niĩ thuurĩte.
And now, Jacob, my seruaunt, here thou, and Israel, whom I chees.
2 Jehova, ũrĩa wakũũmbire na agĩgũthondeka ũrĩ nda ya maitũguo, o ũrĩa ũrĩgũteithagia, ekuuga atĩrĩ: Tiga gwĩtigĩra, wee Jakubu, ndungata yakwa, o nawe Jeshuruni, ũrĩa niĩ thuurĩte.
The Lord makynge and foryyuynge thee, thin helpere fro the wombe, seith these thingis, My seruaunt, Jacob, nyle thou drede, and thou moost riytful, whom Y chees.
3 Nĩgũkorwo bũrũri ũrĩa mũngʼaru nĩngaũitĩrĩria maaĩ, nakuo kũndũ kũrĩa kũmũ nĩgũgathereraga tũrũũĩ; naruo rũciaro rwaku nĩngarũitĩrĩria Roho wakwa, nacio njiaro cianyu ndĩciitĩrĩrie kĩrathimo gĩakwa.
For Y schal schede out watris on the thirsti, and floodis on the dry lond; Y schal schede out my spirit on thi seed, and my blessyng on thi generacioun.
4 Nĩmakaingĩha o ta nyeki ya gĩtuamba ĩkunũkĩte, o na kana ta mĩtĩ ya mĩribina ĩrĩa ĩkũraga hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia njũũĩ.
And thei schulen buriowne among erbis, as salewis bisidis rennynge watris.
5 Mũndũ ũmwe nĩakoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Niĩ ndĩ wa Jehova’; nake ũrĩa ũngĩ akeĩtania na Jakubu; o nake ũngĩ eyandĩke guoko gwake atĩrĩ, ‘Ndĩ wa Jehova,’ na eetue rĩĩtwa rĩĩtanĩtio na Isiraeli.
This man schal seie, Y am of the Lord, and he schal clepe in the name of Jacob; and this man schal write with his hoond to the Lord, and schal be licned in the name of Israel.
6 “Atĩrĩrĩ, Mũthamaki wa Isiraeli na Mũkũũri wao, o we Jehova-Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, ekuuga atĩrĩ: Nĩ niĩ wa mbere na nĩ niĩ wa kũrigĩrĩria, gũtirĩ Ngai ũngĩ tiga niĩ.
The Lord, kyng of Israel, and ayenbiere therof, the Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Y am the firste and Y am the laste, and with outen me is no God.
7 Nũũ ũkĩhaana ta niĩ? Nĩarekwo oimbũre ũhoro ũcio. Nĩaheane ũhoro ũcio na oimbũre arĩ mbere yakwa, ũrĩa gwatariĩ kuuma rĩrĩa ndoombire andũ akwa a tene, na onanie ũrĩa gũgaikara thuutha-inĩ; ĩĩ, nĩakĩrathe ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa magooka.
Who is lijk me? clepe he, and telle, and declare ordre to me, sithen Y made elde puple; telle he to hem thingis to comynge, and that schulen be.
8 Tigai kũinaina, o na kana mwĩtigĩre. Githĩ ndioimbũrire maũndũ maya, na ngĩratha ũhoro ũyũ kuuma o tene? Inyuĩ nĩ inyuĩ aira akwa. Nĩ kũrĩ Ngai ũngĩ tiga niĩ? Aca, gũtirĩ rwaro rũngĩ rwa Ihiga, niĩ ndirĩ ũngĩ njũũĩ.”
Nyle ye drede, nether be ye disturblid; fro that tyme Y made thee for to here, and Y telde; ye ben my witnessis. Whethir a God is with out me, and a formere, whom Y knew not?
9 Andũ arĩa othe mathondekaga mĩhianano ya kũhooywo nĩ a tũhũ, na indo iria meriragĩria mũno itirĩ bata. Andũ arĩa mangĩaria ithenya rĩao nĩ atumumu; gũtirĩ ũndũ mamenyaga, ũguo nĩguo ũmaconorithagia.
Alle the fourmeris of an idol ben no thing, and the moost louyd thingis of hem schulen not profite; thei ben witnessis of tho, that tho seen not, nether vndurstonden, that thei be schent.
10 Nũũ wacũhagia mũhianano wa kũhooywo, o na ageturĩra mũhianano wa gũtwekio ũrĩa ũtangĩmũguna?
Who fourmyde a god, and yetide an ymage, not profitable to ony thing?
11 We na arĩa macihooyaga nĩmagaconorithio; mabundi o nao no andũ matarĩ kĩene. Othe nĩmongane hamwe na matue itua; nao nĩmakanyiitwo nĩ guoya mũnene na maconorithio.
Lo! alle the parteneris therof schulen be schent; for the smythis ben of men. Whanne alle schulen come, thei schulen stonde, and schulen drede, and schulen be schent togidere.
12 Mũturi wa igera ooyaga kĩndũ kĩa wĩra, na agakĩrutĩra wĩra agagĩcina na makara; agathondeka ngai ya mũhianano na nyondo, akaũtura na hinya wa guoko gwake. Mũndũ ũcio ahũũtaga, akoorwo nĩ hinya; akaga kũnyua maaĩ, akaringĩka.
A smith wrouyte with a file; he fourmyde it in coolis, and in hameris, and he wrouyte with the arm of his strengthe. He schal be hungri, and he schal faile; he schal not drynke watre, and he schal be feynt.
13 Mũtharamara aigaga rũrigi rwa kũrũngaria mũhari, agacooka agakurura na karamu; mũhianano ũcio egũthondeka akaũhũũra randa, ningĩ akaũthima gĩthiũrũrĩ, na agacooka kũwacũhia wega ũhaanane na mũhianĩre wa mũndũ, o ta mũndũ ũrĩ na riiri wake wothe, nĩgeetha ũtũũre ihooero-inĩ rĩaguo.
A carpenter stretchide forth a reule, he fourmyde it with an adese; he made it in the corner places, and he turnede it in cumpas; and he made the ymage of a man, as a fair man, dwellynge in the hous.
14 Mũndũ aatemire mĩtarakwa, na agĩĩthuurĩra mũkarakaba kana mũgandi. Akĩreka ũkũranĩre na mĩtĩ ĩrĩa ĩngĩ ya mũtitũ, kana akĩhaanda mũthengera, nayo mbura ĩkĩũkũria.
He kittide doun cedris, he took an hawthorn, and an ook, that stood among the trees of the forest; he plauntide a pyne apple tre, which he nurschide with reyn,
15 Mũtĩ ũcio nĩ wa kuunwo ngũ; oyaga imwe agaakia mwaki, agoota, no iria ingĩ agaakia mwaki, akaruga mĩgate. Ningĩ gĩcunjĩ kĩmwe agethondekera ngai ya mũhianano, akamĩhooyaga. Ĩĩ ti-itherũ, athondekaga mũhianano mũicũhie akaũinamagĩrĩra.
and it was maad in to fier to men. He took of tho, and was warmed, and he brente, and bakide looues; but of the residue he wrouyte a god, and worschipide it, and he made a grauun ymage, and he was bowid bifore that.
16 Nuthu ya ngũ agaakia mwaki nacio; akarugĩra irio ciake ho, na akahĩhĩria nyama ciake ho, akarĩa, akahũũna. Ningĩ agoota mwaki, akoiga atĩrĩ, “Hĩ! Nĩndaigua ũrugarĩ; nĩndona mwaki.”
He brente the myddil therof with fier, and of the myddil therof he sethide fleischis, and eet; he sethide potage, and was fillid; and he was warmed, and he seide, Wel!
17 Ngũ iria ciatigara agathondeka ngai, mũhianano wake wa kũhooya; akaũinamĩrĩra na akaũturĩria maru. Akaũhooya, akoiga atĩrĩ, “Honokia; wee nĩwe ngai yakwa.”
Y am warmed; Y siy fier. Forsothe the residue therof he made a god, and a grauun ymage to hym silf; he is bowide bifore that, and worschipith that, and bisechith, and seith, Delyuere thou me, for thou art my god.
18 Matirĩ ũndũ mooĩ, na matirĩ ũndũ mamenyaga; maitho mao nĩmahumbĩre, nĩ ũndũ ũcio matingĩona, na meciiria mao nĩmahingĩtwo makaaga kũmenya maũndũ.
Thei knewen not, nether vndurstoden, for thei han foryete, that her iye se not, and that thei vndurstonde not with her herte.
19 Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkiraga ageciiria, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũrĩ na ũũgĩ kana ũmenyo oige atĩrĩ, “Nuthu ya ngũ ndahũthĩrire na gwakia mwaki; o na ngĩrugĩra mĩgate makara-inĩ macio, na ngĩcooka ngĩhĩhia nyama na ngĩrĩa. Ti-itherũ no ngĩthondeke kĩndũ kĩrĩ magigi kuuma kũrĩ ngũ iria itigaire? Ti-itherũ no nyinamĩrĩre gĩcunjĩ kĩa mũtĩ?”
Thei bythenken not in her soule, nether thei knowen, nether thei feelen, that thei seie, Y brente the myddil therof in fier, and Y bakide looues on the coolis therof, and Y sethide fleischis, and eet; and of the residue therof schal Y make an idol? schal Y falle doun bifore the stok of a tree?
20 Arĩĩaga mũhu, ahĩtithĩtio nĩ ngoro ĩrĩa ĩheenekete; ndangĩhota kwĩhonokia, kana oige atĩrĩ, “Githĩ kĩndũ gĩkĩ kĩrĩ guoko gwakwa kwa ũrĩo ti maheeni?”
A part therof is aische; an vnwijs herte schal worschipe it, and he schal not delyuere his soule, nether he schal seie, A strong leesyng is in my riythond.
21 “Ririkana maũndũ maya, wee Jakubu, o wee Isiraeli, tondũ ũrĩ ndungata yakwa. Nĩ niĩ ndakũũmbire, wee ũrĩ ndungata yakwa; atĩrĩ, wee Isiraeli, ndikaariganĩrwo nĩwe.
Thou, Jacob, and Israel, haue mynde of these thingis, for thou art my seruaunt; Y formyde thee, Israel, thou art my seruaunt; thou schalt not foryete me.
22 Nĩnjeheretie mahĩtia maku magathira biũ, o ta ũrĩa itu rĩa mbura rĩthiraga, mehia maku ngamaniina ta kĩbii kĩa rũciinĩ. Njookerera tondũ nĩngũkũũrĩte.”
Y dide awei thi wickidnessis as a cloude, and thi synnes as a myist; turne thou ayen to me, for Y ayenbouyte thee.
23 Wee igũrũ ina nĩ gũkena, nĩgũkorwo nĩ Jehova wĩkĩte ũndũ ũcio; nawe thĩ ũrĩ rungu rwa igũrũ-rĩ, anĩrĩra. Na inyuĩ irĩma-rĩ, inai rwĩmbo, o na inyuĩ mĩtitũ na mĩtĩ yanyu yothe inai, nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩakũũrĩte Jakubu, na akoonania riiri wake kũu Isiraeli.
Ye heuenes, herie, for the Lord hath do merci; the laste partis of erth, synge ye hertli song; hillis, sowne ye preisyng; the forest and ech tre therof, herie God; for the Lord ayenbouyte Jacob, and Israel schal haue glorie.
24 “Jehova, Mũkũũri waku, ũrĩa wakũũmbĩire nda ya maitũguo, ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova ũrĩa wombire indo ciothe, ũrĩa watambũrũkirie igũrũ ndĩ nyiki, ũrĩa waaraganirie thĩ ndĩ nyiki,
The Lord, thin ayenbiere, and thi fourmere fro the wombe, seith these thingis, Y am the Lord, makynge alle thingis, and Y aloone stretche forth heuenes, and stablische the erthe, and noon is with me;
25 nĩ niĩ ngiragĩrĩria ciama cia anabii a maheeni, nao aragũri ngamatua irimũ, ningĩ ngagarũra ũũgĩ wa arĩa oogĩ, ngaũtua ũrimũ mũtheri.
and Y make voide the signes of false dyuynours, and Y turne in to woodnesse dyuynours, that dyuynen by sacrifices offrid to feendis; and Y turne wise men bacward, and Y make her science fonned.
26 Nĩ niĩ njĩkagĩra ciugo cia ndungata ciakwa hinya, na ngahingia ũrathi wa atũmwo akwa, na ha ũhoro wa Jerusalemu ngoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩrĩgatũũrwo,’ na ha ũhoro wa matũũra ma Juda ngoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩmagaakwo,’ o na kũndũ gwakuo kũrĩa kwanangĩtwo ngoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngagũcookereria.’
And the Lord reisith the word of his seruaunt, and fillith the councel of hise messangeris; and Y seie, Jerusalem, thou schalt be enhabitid; and to the citees of Juda, Ye schulen be bildid, and Y schal reise the desertis therof;
27 Nĩ niĩ njĩĩraga maaĩ ma kũrĩa kũriku atĩrĩ, ‘Hũai, na nĩngahũithia tũrũũĩ twanyu.’
and Y seie to the depthe, Be thou desolat, and Y shal make drie thi floodis;
28 Nĩ niĩ njugaga ũhoro wa Mũthamaki Kurusu atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩwe mũrĩithi wa mbũri ciakwa, na nĩwe ũkaahingia ũrĩa wothe nyendaga wĩkwo; Nĩakoiga ũhoro wa Jerusalemu atĩrĩ, “Nĩrĩakwo,” na ha ũhoro wa hekarũ oige atĩrĩ, “Mĩthingi yayo nĩyakwo.”’”
and Y seie to Cirus, Thou art my scheepherde, and thou schalt fille al my wille; and Y seie to Jerusalem, Thou schalt be bildid; and to the temple, Thou schalt be foundid.
