< Isaia 66 >

1 Jehova ekuuga ũũ: “Igũrũ nĩrĩo gĩtĩ gĩakwa kĩa ũnene, nayo thĩ nĩyo gĩturwa gĩakwa kĩa magũrũ. Mũngĩkĩnjakĩra nyũmba ĩhaana atĩa? Naho handũ hakwa ha kũhurũka hangĩkorwo hahaana atĩa?
Thus saith the Lord, The heauen is my throne, and the earth is my footestoole: where is that house that ye will builde vnto me? and where is that place of my rest?
2 Githĩ ti guoko gwakwa gwathondekire indo ici ciothe, na gũgĩtũma igĩe kuo?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Atĩrĩrĩ, mũndũ ũyũ nowe ngaatĩĩa: nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wĩnyiihagia na akagĩa na ngoro ĩherete, na akainaina rĩrĩa ekũigua kiugo gĩakwa.
For all these things hath mine hand made, and all these things haue bene, sayth the Lord: and to him will I looke, euen to him, that is poore, and of a contrite spirite and trembleth at my wordes.
3 No rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũrĩa ũrutaga ndegwa igongona ahaana o ta ũrĩa ũragaga mũndũ, nake ũrĩa ũrutaga gatũrũme, ahaana o ta mũndũ ũrĩa uunaga ngui ngingo; mũndũ ũrĩa ũrutaga iruta rĩa mũtu, ahaana o ta mũndũ ũrĩa ũrutaga thakame ya ngũrwe, nake ũrĩa ũcinaga ũbumba wa kĩririkano, ahaana o ta mũndũ ũrĩa ũhooyaga mũhianano. Andũ acio nĩmethuurĩire njĩra ciao o ene, na ngoro ciao igakenagio nĩ maũndũ marĩa marĩ magigi;
He that killeth a bullocke, is as if he slewe a man: he that sacrificeth a sheepe, as if he cut off a dogges necke: he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swines blood: he that remembreth incense, as if he blessed an idole: yea, they haue chosen their owne wayes, and their soule deliteth in their abominations.
4 nĩ ũndũ ũcio, niĩ o na niĩ nĩngathuura kũmeka ũndũ mũũru na ndĩmarehithĩrie maũndũ marĩa matũmaga metigĩrĩte. Nĩgũkorwo rĩrĩa ndetanire, gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wanjĩtĩkire, na rĩrĩa ndaaririe, gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wathikĩrĩirie. Andũ acio meekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ makwa, na magĩthuura maũndũ marĩa matangenagia.”
Therefore will I chuse out their delusions, and I will bring their feare vpon them, because I called, and none woulde answere: I spake and they woulde not heare: but they did euill in my sight, and chose the things which I would not.
5 Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ mũinainaga nĩ gũtĩĩa kiugo gĩake, ta iguai ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova: “Ariũ a thoguo arĩa mamũthũire, na makamũingata nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa, moigĩte atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova ta nĩagĩkumio nĩguo tũkĩone gĩkeno kĩanyu!’ No rĩrĩ, o nĩmagaconorithio.
Heare the worde of the Lord, all ye that tremble at his worde, Your brethren that hated you, and cast you out for my Names sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appeare to your ioy, and they shall be ashamed.
6 Ta iguai mbugĩrĩrio ĩyo ĩroima kũu itũũra rĩrĩa inene, mũigue inegene rĩu rĩroima kũu hekarũ-inĩ! Ũcio nĩ mũgambo wa Jehova mũraigua akĩrĩha thũ ciake kĩrĩa kĩmagĩrĩire.
A voyce soundeth from the citie, euen a voyce from the Temple, the voyce of the Lord, that recompenseth his enemies fully.
7 “Atanambĩrĩria kũrũmwo-rĩ, nĩaciarĩte: na ataanarũmwo nĩ ruo-rĩ, agagĩciara mwana wa kahĩĩ.
Before she trauailed, she brought foorth: and before her paine came, she was deliuered of a man childe.
8 Nũũ ũrĩ aigua ũndũ ta ũcio? Nũũ ũrĩ wona maũndũ ta macio? Anga bũrũri wakĩhota gũciarĩrwo andũ aguo mũthenya o ro ũmwe, o na kana rũrĩrĩ rũkĩigane o ro rĩmwe? No rĩrĩ, o rĩrĩa Zayuni yanyiitirwo nĩ ruo-rĩ, o hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo yaciarire ciana ciayo o ro rĩmwe.
Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seene such things? shall ye earth be brought forth in one day? or shall a nation be borne at once? for assoone as Zion trauailed, she brought foorth her children.
9 Anga no nginyie ihinda rĩa mwana gũciarwo na ndikĩreke aciarwo?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekũũria. “Anga no hingĩrĩrie mwana nda nginyĩtie ihinda rĩake rĩa gũciarwo?” ũguo nĩguo Ngai wanyu ekũũria.
Shall I cause to trauaile, and not bring forth? shall I cause to bring forth, and shall be baren, saith thy God?
10 “Inyuĩ inyuothe arĩa mwendete itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu, kenanĩrai narĩo na mũcanjamũke nĩ ũndũ warĩo; kenanĩrai mũno narĩo, inyuĩ inyuothe arĩa mũtũire mũrĩcakayagĩra.
Reioyce ye with Ierusalem, and be gladde with her, all ye that loue her: reioyce for ioy with her, all ye that mourne for her,
11 Nĩgeetha mũhaane ta andũ mongete maũndũ mega marĩo, mũkahũũna mũhooreire nyondo-inĩ ciake; ningĩ mũnyuuage mũkanyootoka, na mũkenagĩre ũingĩ wa iria rĩake.”
That ye may sucke and be satisfied with the brestes of her consolation: that ye may milke out and be delited with ye brightnes of her glorie.
12 Nĩgũkorwo ũũ nĩguo Jehova ekuuga: “Nĩngakinyĩria itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu thayũ ũhaana ta rũũĩ, na ũtonga wa ndũrĩrĩ ũhaana taarĩ rũũĩ rũiyũrĩte rũkoina; mũkahoorera ta kaana gakĩongithio nĩ nyina, mũgaakuuo na moko make, na mũcũgacũgagio mũrĩ maru-inĩ make.
For thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I will extend peace ouer her like a flood, and the glorie of the Gentiles like a flowing streame: then shall ye sucke, ye shall be borne vpon her sides, and be ioyfull vpon her knees.
13 O ta ũrĩa mwana ahooreragio nĩ nyina, ũguo noguo ngaamũhooreria; na nĩmũkahoorerio mũrĩ kũu Jerusalemu.”
As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you, and ye shall be comforted in Ierusalem.
14 Rĩrĩa mũkoona ũndũ ũcio, ngoro cianyu nĩigakena, nawe ũrirũke ta nyeki nduru; naguo hinya wa guoko kwa Jehova nĩũkamenyeka nĩ ndungata ciake, no marakara make nĩmakamenyeka nĩ thũ ciake.
And when ye see this, your hearts shall reioyce, and your bones shall flourish like an herbe: and the hand of the Lord shall be knowen among his seruants, and his indignation against his enemies.
15 Atĩrĩrĩ, Jehova arooka arĩ na mwaki, na ngaari ciake cia ita ihaana ta kĩhuhũkanio kĩnene; akaamũikũrũkĩria marakara make arĩ na mangʼũrĩ, na amũkũũme na ikũũmana rĩhaana ta nĩnĩmbĩ cia mwaki.
For beholde, the Lord will come with fire, and his charets like a whirlewinde, that he may recompence his anger with wrath, and his indignation with the flame of fire.
16 Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩagatuĩra andũ othe ciira, arĩ na mwaki na rũhiũ rwake rwa njora, na arĩa makooragwo nĩ Jehova magaakorwo marĩ aingĩ.
For the Lord will iudge with fire, and with his sworde all flesh, and the slaine of the Lord shall be many.
17 “Na rĩrĩ, andũ arĩa meamũrĩte na magetheria nĩguo mathiĩ marũmĩrĩire ũrĩa ũrĩ gatagatĩ nĩguo makinye magongona-inĩ marĩa marutagĩrwo mĩgũnda-inĩ, o acio marĩĩaga nyama cia ngũrwe na mbĩa, na indo ingĩ irĩ thaahu, magaathiranĩra hamwe,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
They that sanctifie themselues, and purifie themselues in the gardens behinde one tree in the middes eating swines flesh, and such abomination, euen the mouse, shall be consumed together, sayeth the Lord.
18 “Na niĩ-rĩ, tondũ wa ciĩko ciao na mecũũrania mao, ngirie gũũka njookanĩrĩrie ndũrĩrĩ ciothe o na andũ a mĩario yothe, nao nĩmagooka meyonere riiri wakwa.
For I will visite their workes, and their imaginations: for it shall come that I will gather all nations, and tongues, and they shall come, and see my glorie.
19 “Nĩngekĩra kĩmenyithia thĩinĩ wao, na amwe a arĩa makaahonoka nĩngamatũma mathiĩ ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ: mathiĩ Tarishishi, na mathiĩ Putu na Ludu kũrĩ andũ arĩa me ngumo ya gũikia mĩguĩ, na mathiĩ Tubali na Javani, na mathiĩ kũrĩ andũ arĩa matũũraga icigĩrĩra-inĩ cia kũndũ kũraya, kũrĩa gũtarĩ kwaiguuo ngumo yakwa, kana gũkonwo riiri wakwa. Nĩmakahunjia ũhoro wa riiri wakwa kũrĩ andũ a ndũrĩrĩ.
And I will set a signe among them, and will send those that escape of them, vnto the nations of Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, and to them that drawe the bowe, to Tubal and Tauan, yles afarre off, that haue not heard my fame, neither haue seene my glorie, and they shall declare my glorie among the Gentiles.
20 Nao nĩmakarehe ariũ a thoguo othe, kuuma ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ ciothe, marehwo makuuĩtwo nĩ mbarathi, na ngaari cia ita, na makaari ma kũguucio, na mahaicĩte nyũmbũ na ngamĩĩra, moke kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩakwa kĩrĩa kĩamũre kũu Jerusalemu, matuĩke ta igongona harĩ Jehova,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga. “Nao magaacirehe o ta ũrĩa andũ a Isiraeli marehaga ngano yao ya maruta kũu hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova ĩkuuĩtwo na indo iria itarĩ thaahu.
And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering vnto the Lord out of all nations, vpon horses, and in charets, and in horse litters, and vpon mules, and swift beastes, to Ierusalem mine holy Mountaine, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel, offer in a cleane vessell in the House of the Lord.
21 Na niĩ nĩngathuura amwe ao matuĩke athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
And I will take of them for Priestes, and for Leuites, saith the Lord.
22 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ, “O ta ũrĩa igũrũ rĩu rĩerũ na thĩ njerũ iria ngũthondeka igatũũra mbere yakwa-rĩ, ũguo noguo rĩĩtwa rĩaku na njiaro ciaku irĩtũũraga.
For as the newe heauens, and the newe earth which I will make, shall remaine before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seede and your name continue.
23 Kuuma Karũgamo ka Mweri ũmwe nginya Karũgamo ka Mweri ũrĩa ũngĩ, na kuuma Thabatũ ĩmwe nginya Thabatũ ĩrĩa ĩngĩ, andũ othe nĩmagookaga kũhooya mainamĩrĩire mbere yakwa,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
And from moneth to moneth, and from Sabbath to Sabbath shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.
24 “Nao nĩmakoimagara makerorere ciimba cia andũ arĩa maanemeire; nĩ ũndũ igunyũ ciao itigakua, o na kana mwaki ũrĩa wa kũmacina ũhore, nao nĩmagatuĩka ta kĩndũ gĩthũirwo mũno nĩ andũ othe.”
And they shall goe forth, and looke vpon the carkases of the men that haue transgressed against me: for their worme shall not dye, neither shall their fire be quenched, and they shalbe an abhorring vnto all flesh.
