Isaia 49
1 Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ mũtũũraga icigĩrĩra-inĩ ta thikĩrĩriai; o na inyuĩ andũ a mabũrũri ma kũraya ta iguai: Jehova aanjĩtire itarĩ mũciare; ndĩ o nda ya maitũ nĩguo aanjĩtire na rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.
Listen O islands to me and pay attention O peoples from a distance Yahweh from [the] womb he called me from [the] inward parts of mother my he has brought to remembrance name my.
2 Nĩatũmire kanua gakwa gatuĩke ta rũhiũ rũũgĩ rwa njora, na akĩĩhitha kĩĩruru-inĩ gĩa guoko gwake; agĩĩthondeka ta mũguĩ mũnyoroku, na akĩĩhitha thiaka-inĩ wake.
And he made mouth my like a sword sharp in [the] shadow of hand his he hid me and he made me an arrow polished in quiver his he concealed me.
3 Agĩcooka akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee Isiraeli, nĩwe ndungata yakwa, andũ nĩmarĩngoocaga nĩ ũndũ waku.”
And he said to me [are] servant my you Israel whom by you I will get glory for myself.
4 No ngiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndutĩte wĩra wa tũhũ; hũthĩrĩte hinya wakwa wothe nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ matarĩ kĩguni na ma tũhũ. No rĩrĩ, ũhoro wakwa wa gũtuĩrwo ciira na kĩhooto uumaga harĩ Jehova, narĩo irĩhi rĩakwa rĩrĩ na Ngai wakwa.”
And I I said to emptiness I have labored to nothingness and futility strength my I have caused to fail nevertheless justice my [is] with Yahweh and recompense my [is] with God my.
5 Na rĩu-rĩ, Jehova ũrĩa wanyũũmbire ndĩ nda ya maitũ nduĩke ndungata yake, nĩguo hũndũre Jakubu, ndĩmũcookie harĩ we, na njookanĩrĩrie Isiraeli harĩ we, nĩgũkorwo ndĩ mũtĩĩku maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, na Ngai wakwa agakorwo arĩ hinya wakwa,
And now - he says Yahweh [who] formed me from [the] womb a servant of him to bring back Jacob to him and Israel (to him *Q(K)*) it will be gathered and I may be honored in [the] eyes of Yahweh and God my he has been strength my.
6 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Nĩ ũndũ mũhũthũ harĩwe gũtuĩka ndungata yakwa, ya gũcookereria mĩhĩrĩga ya Jakubu, na kũhũndũra matigari ma Isiraeli marĩa ndĩĩtigĩirie. Ningĩ nĩngatũma ũtuĩke ũtheri wa gũtherera andũ a ndũrĩrĩ, nĩgeetha ũtware ũhonokio wakwa ituri-inĩ ciothe cia thĩ.”
And he said it is [too] trifling for being you of me servant to raise up [the] tribes of Jacob (and [the] preserved [ones] of *Q(K)*) Israel to bring back and I will make you a light of [the] nations to be salvation my to [the] end of the earth.
7 Jehova, Mũkũũri wa Isiraeli, o we Ũrĩa Mũtheru wa Isiraeli, ekwarĩria ũrĩa mũnyarare na agathũũrwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ, akeera ũrĩa ndungata ya aathani atĩrĩ, “Athamaki marĩkuonaga magakũrũgamĩra, aanake a athamaki makuona magakũinamĩrĩra, nĩ ũndũ wa Jehova, ũcio mwĩhokeku, o we Ũrĩa Mũtheru wa Isiraeli, ũrĩa ũgũthuurĩte.”
Thus he says Yahweh [the] redeemer of Israel holy [one] its to despise life to [one who] abhors a nation to a servant of rulers kings they will see and they will stand up princes so they may bow down on account of Yahweh who [is] faithful [the] holy [one] of Israel and he has chosen you.
8 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Hĩndĩ ya gwĩtĩkĩrĩka, nĩngagũcookeria ũhoro, naguo mũthenya wa kũhonokania, nĩngagũteithia; nĩndĩkũmenyagĩrĩra, na nĩngũkũheana ũtuĩke wa kũrĩkanĩra kĩrĩkanĩro na andũ anyu gĩa kũmacookeria bũrũri, na ũtũme megwatĩre igai rĩa kũndũ kũrĩa gwatigirwo gũkirĩte ihooru,
Thus - he says Yahweh in a time of favor I will answer you and on a day of salvation I will help you and I will watch over you and I will make you a covenant of [the] people to raise up [the] land to give as inheritance inheritances desolate.
9 na ningĩ wĩre andũ arĩa mohetwo atĩrĩ, ‘Thiĩi, nĩmuohorwo,’ nao arĩa maikarĩte nduma-inĩ ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Umĩrai ũtheri-inĩ!’ “Makaarĩithagio mĩkĩra-inĩ ya njĩra, na moonage gĩa kũrĩa tũrĩma-inĩ tuothe tũrĩa tũtarĩ kĩndũ.
To say to [the] prisoners come out to [those] who [are] in darkness reveal yourselves on roads they will graze and [will be] on all bare heights pasture their.
10 Matikaahũũta kana manyoote, kana macinwo nĩ ũrugarĩ wa werũ-inĩ o na kana mahĩe nĩ riũa. Nĩgũkorwo ũrĩa ũmaiguagĩra tha nĩwe ũkaamoonia njĩra na amatongoragie amatware ithima-inĩ cia maaĩ.
Not they will be hungry and not they will be thirsty and not it will strike them burning heat and sun for [one who] has compassion on them he will guide them and to springs of water he will lead them.
11 Nĩngatũma kũgĩe njĩra irĩma-inĩ ciakwa ciothe, nacio barabara ciakwa iria njariĩ ciambatĩrio na igũrũ.
And I will make all mountains my into road and highways my they will be lifted up!
12 Atĩrĩrĩ, magooka moimĩte kũndũ kũraya: amwe makoima gathigathini, na amwe moime ithũĩro, na arĩa angĩ moime rũgongo rũa Sinimu.”
Here! these from a distance they will come and here! these from [the] north and from [the] west and these from [the] land of Sinim.
13 Wee igũrũ, anĩrĩra nĩ gũkena; nawe thĩ ũcanjamũke, na inyuĩ irĩma-rĩ, inai rwĩmbo! Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩahooreretie andũ ake, nao andũ ake arĩa anyariire akamaiguĩra tha.
Shout for joy O heaven and be glad O earth (and break forth *Q(K)*) O mountains a shout of joy for he has comforted Yahweh people his and afflicted [people] his he has compassion on.
14 No rĩrĩ, Zayuni oigire atĩrĩ, “Jehova nĩandiganĩirie, Mwathani nĩariganĩirwo nĩ niĩ.”
And it said Zion he has forsaken me Yahweh and [the] Lord he has forgotten me.
15 “Nyina wa mwana-rĩ, no ariganĩrwo nĩ mwana ũrĩa arongithia, na aage kũiguĩra tha mwana ũrĩa aciarĩte? Hihi no kũhoteke ariganĩrwo, no niĩ ndikaariganĩrwo nĩwe!
¿ Will she forget a woman sucking child her from having compassion on [the] child of womb her also these they will forget and I not I will forget you.
16 Atĩrĩrĩ, ngururĩte mũhiano waku hĩ-inĩ ciakwa, nacio thingo ciaku ikoragwo mbere yakwa hĩndĩ ciothe.
Here! on palms of hands I have inscribed you walls your [are] before me continually.
17 Ariũ aku mahiũhĩte magĩcookaga kũrĩ we, nao arĩa makwanangĩte nĩmarakũũrĩra.
They have made haste children your [those who] tear down you and [those who] make desolate you from you they will go out.
18 Tiira maitho maku wĩrorere kũndũ guothe; ariũ aku othe maracookanĩrĩra hamwe moke harĩwe.” Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ o ta ũrĩa niĩ ndũũraga muoyo-rĩ, ũkaamehumba othe ta mathaga; ũkaamehumba o ta ũrĩa mũhiki egemagia na mathaga make.
Lift up all around eyes your and see all of them they have gathered together they have come to you [by] [the] life of me [the] utterance of Yahweh that all of them like ornament[s] you will put on and you will tie on them like bride.
19 “O na gũtuĩka nĩwanangĩtwo ũgakira ihooru, o naguo bũrũri waku ũkonũhwo-rĩ, bũrũri ũcio nĩũkanyiiha wage kũiganĩra andũ arĩa matũũraga kuo, nao arĩa magũtambuurangĩte magaakorwo maingatĩtwo magathiĩ haraaya nawe.
For waste places your and desolate [places] your and [the] land of destruction your for now you will be [too] cramped for [the] inhabitant[s] and they will be far away [those who] swallowed up you.
20 Ciana iria ciaciarĩirwo bũrũri ũrĩa watahĩirwo, ikoiga ũkĩiguaga atĩrĩ, ‘Bũrũri ũyũ nĩ mũnini, ndũngĩtũigana, tũhe kũndũ kũngĩ gwa gũtũũra.’
Yet they will say in ears your [the] children of bereavement your it is cramped for me the place draw near! for me so let me dwell.
21 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkeyũria na ngoro yaku atĩrĩ, ‘Nũũ wanjiarĩire ciana ici, kuona atĩ nĩndakuĩrĩirwo nĩ ciana ciakwa, ngĩtigwo ta ndĩ thaata; ndaarĩ mũtahe na ngamenwo. Nũũ warerire ciana ici? Niĩ ndatigirwo nyiki, no rĩrĩ, ciana ici ciumĩte nakũ?’”
And you will say in heart your who? did he father for me these [children] and I [was] bereaved and barren gone into exile - and thrust away and these [children] who? did he bring up here! I I remained to alone me these [children] where? [are] they.
22 Mwathani Jehova ekuuga ũũ: “Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩngeeta ndũrĩrĩ, njooke nyambararie bendera yakwa kũrĩ andũ a mabũrũri; nao nĩmakarehe ariũ aku mamakuuĩte na moko, na makuue airĩtu aku na ciande ciao.
Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh here! I will lift up to [the] nations hand my and to peoples I will raise standard my and they will bring sons your in a bosom and daughters your on a shoulder they will be carried.
23 Athamaki nĩo magaatuĩka mathoguo ma gũkũrera, na atumia ao matuĩke ta aa maitũguo a gũkũrera. Nĩmagakũinamĩrĩra maturumithĩtie mothiũ mao thĩ, na nĩmagacũna rũkũngũ rũrĩa rũrĩ magũrũ-inĩ maku. Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩũkamenya atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ Jehova; arĩa manjĩhokaga matigaaconoka.”
And they will be kings foster-fathers your and princesses their suckling-nurses your faces ground they will bow down to you and [the] dust of feet your they will lick up and you will know that I [am] Yahweh whom not they will be ashamed [those who] wait for me.
24 Anga njamba ĩrĩ hinya no ĩtunywo indo iria itahĩte, o na kana andũ arĩa maanyiitĩtwo mahonokio kuuma kũrĩ andũ karaũ?
¿ Will it be taken from a warrior booty and or? [the] captive[s] of [the] righteous will it escape.
25 No rĩrĩ, Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Ĩĩ, njamba cia ita nĩigatunywo andũ arĩa ciohete mĩgwate, na indo iria itahĩtwo itunyanwo kuuma kũrĩ andũ arĩa karaũ; nĩngahũũrana na andũ arĩa mahũũranaga nawe, na nĩngahonokia ciana cianyu.
For thus - he says Yahweh also a captive of a warrior he will be taken and [the] booty of a ruthless [person] it will be delivered and opponent your I I will oppose and children your I I will save.
26 Nĩngatũma andũ arĩa makũhinyagĩrĩria marĩe nyama cia mĩĩrĩ yao; makaarĩĩo nĩ thakame yao ene o ta marĩĩtwo nĩ njoohi. Nao andũ othe nĩmakamenya, atĩ niĩ, Jehova, nĩ niĩ Mũhonokia waku, na Mũkũũri waku, o niĩ Ũrĩa Mwene-Hinya wa Jakubu.”
And I will cause to eat [those who] maltreat you own flesh their and like sweet wine own blood their they will become drunk! and they will know all flesh that I [am] Yahweh deliverer your and redeemer your [the] mighty one of Jacob.
