Aịzaya 10
1 Ahụhụ na-adịrị ndị niile na-atụpụta iwu na-ezighị ezi; ndị niile na-atụpụta iwu mmegbu,
Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers who write oppressive decrees;
2 iji napụ ndị ogbenye ihe ruru ha nakwa ịnapụ ndị m a na-emegbu emegbu ikpe ziri ezi, na-emekwa ka ụmụ nwanyị di ha nwụrụ bụrụ anụ oriri ha na izunara ụmụ na-enweghị nne na nna ihe ha nwere.
to deprive the needy from justice, and to rob the poor among my people of their rights, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey.
3 Gịnị ka unu ga-eme nʼụbọchị m ga-abịa ileta unu? Gịnị ka unu ga-eme nʼụbọchị m ga-eweta ịla nʼiyi, nke ga-esi nʼebe dị anya bịara unu? Onye ka unu ga-agbakwuru maka enyemaka? Ọ bụ ebe ka unu ga-ahapụ akụ unu niile?
What will you do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help? Where will you leave your wealth,
4 Mba, ọ dịghị ihe ga-afọdụ; karịa na a ga-egbu unu nʼihu ọgụ, maọbụ dọkpụrụ unu dịka ndị mkpọrọ. Ma nʼagbanyeghị ihe ndị a niile, iwe ya alaghachibeghị azụ, aka ya ka setịpụkwara esetipụ.
so as not to kneel with the prisoners, or fall among the slain? For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
5 “Ahụhụ ga-adịrị Asịrịa onye bụ mkpara nke iwe m. Nʼaka ya ka mkpọ nke ọnụma m dị.
Alas Assyrian, the rod of my anger, the staff in whose hand is my indignation.
6 Ana m ezipu ya imegide mba a na-amaghị Chineke, m na-eziga ya imegide ndị na-akpasu m iwe, ka ha kwakọrọ ihe nkwata nʼagha ha, pụnakwara ha ụfọdụ nʼike, nakwa ịzọtọ ndị ha niile nʼala dịka apịtị nke okporoụzọ.
I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people who anger me will I give him a command to take the spoil and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.
7 Ma ọ bụghị ihe a ka o zubere, nke a abụghị ihe ọ na-eche nʼobi ya; o zubere ịla ndị m nʼiyi, na ibibi ọtụtụ mba dị iche iche.
However he doesn't mean so, neither does his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off not a few nations.
8 Ọ sịrị, ‘Ndị ọchịagha m niile ha abụghị ndị eze?’
For he says, "Aren't all of my officials kings?
9 ‘Ọnọdụ Kalno ọ dịghị ka nke Kakemish? Hamat ọ dịghị ka Apad; Sameria ọ dịghịkwa ka Damaskọs?
Isn't Calno like Carchemish? Isn't Hamath like Arpad? Isn't Samaria like Damascus?
10 Dịka aka m si chịkọta alaeze dị iche iche nke ọtụtụ arụsị, alaeze dị iche iche nke arụsị apịrị apị ha karịrị nke Jerusalem na Sameria.
As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols, whose engraved images exceeded those of Jerusalem and of Samaria;
11 Ọ bụ na m agaghị emekwa Jerusalem na arụsị ya niile apịrị apị dịka m mere Sameria na arụsị ya niile?’”
shall I not, as I have done to Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols?"
12 Mgbe Onyenwe anyị rụsịrị ọrụ ya niile megide ugwu Zayọn na Jerusalem, ọ ga-asị, “Aga m ata eze ndị Asịrịa ahụhụ nʼihi nganga nke obi ha, na ịnya isi nke anya mpako ya.
Therefore it will happen that, when YHWH has performed his whole work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, he will punish the fruit of the willful proud heart of the king of Assyria, and the insolence of his haughty looks.
13 Nʼihi na ọ na-asị, “‘Ọ bụ site nʼike aka m, ka m ji mee nke a, ọ bụkwa na amamihe m, nʼihi na m nwere nghọta. Ewezugara m oke ala mba niile dị iche iche, apụnara m ha akụ ha niile; dịka onye dị ike, e wedara m ndị eze ha niile nʼokpuru m.
For he has said, "By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I have understanding: and I have removed the boundaries of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures. Like a valiant man I have brought down their rulers.
14 Dịka mmadụ si agbatị aka nʼime akwụ nnụnụ, otu a ka m chịkọtara akụnụba mba dị iche iche, dịka mmadụ si achịkọta akwa ahapụrụ ahapụ, otu a ka m chịkọtara mba ụwa niile; Ọ dịghị onye megharịrị otu nku, maọbụ saghee ọnụ ya ime mkpọtụ!’”
My hand has found the riches of the peoples like a nest, and like one gathers eggs that are abandoned, have I gathered all the earth. There was no one who moved their wing, or that opened their mouth, or chirped."
15 Anyụike ọ ga-anya isi sị na ya dị ukwuu karịa onye na-eji ya awa nkụ, ka ọ bụ mma nkwọ, ọ ga-aja onwe ya karịa onye na-eji ya akpọwa ihe? Dịka a ga-asị na okporo igwe ga-ebuli onye na-eweli ya elu, maọbụ mkpọ ọ ga-efegharị onye na-abụghị osisi.
Should an axe brag against him who chops with it? Should a saw exalt itself above him who saws with it? As if a rod should lift those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up someone who is not wood.
16 Nʼihi ya, Onyenwe anyị, bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, ga-ezitere ndị agha gị mara abụba ihe otiti; ọ ga-akwanye ọkụ nʼokpuru ihe ngosipụta nke ịdị ebube ya dịka ire ọkụ nke na-ere ere.
Therefore YHWH of hosts will send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory a burning will be kindled like the burning of fire.
17 Ìhè nke Izrel, ga-aghọ ọkụ, Onye nsọ ha, ga-aghọkwa ire ọkụ nke ga-ala ihe niile nʼiyi. Nʼotu abalị ka ọ ga-erechapụ ogwu niile na uke niile ọkụ.
The light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day.
18 A ga-ala ịma mma nke oke ọhịa ya na ala ya na-amị ezi mkpụrụ nʼiyi kpamkpam, dịka mgbe ọrịa na-ala mmadụ nʼiyi.
He will consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body. It will be as when a standard bearer faints.
19 Naanị osisi ole na ole ga-afọdụ, ha ga-adị ntakịrị ruo na nwantakịrị nwere ike gụọ ha ọnụ.
The remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child could write their number.
20 Nʼụbọchị ahụ, ndị fọdụrụ nʼala Izrel, na ndị fọdụrụ ndụ nʼụlọ Jekọb, agaghịkwa adabere nʼonye ahụ tidara ha, kama ha ga-adabere naanị na Onyenwe anyị, Onye nsọ nke Izrel.
It will come to pass in that day that the remnant of Israel, and those who have escaped from the house of Jacob will no more again lean on him who struck them, but shall lean on YHWH, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21 Ndị fọdụrụ ga-alọghachi, bụ ndị Nke Jekọb fọdụrụ ga-alọghachikwute Chineke dị ukwuu.
A remnant will return, even the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.
22 Ọ bụ ezie na ndị gị Izrel dị ukwuu dịka aja dị nʼakụkụ osimiri, ọ bụ naanị mmadụ ole na ole ga-alọghachi. A kabiela ịla nʼiyi, nke dị oke ukwuu ya na ezi omume.
For though your people, Israel, are as the sand of the sea, a remnant will be kept safe. For he will fulfill the word and decisively in righteousness;
23 E, Onyenwe anyị, Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, ekpebiela na ọ ga-ebibi ala ahụ niile.
because YHWH will carry out the word decisively in the midst of the earth.
24 Ya mere, ihe a ka Onyenwe anyị, bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, sịrị, “Unu ndị m, ndị bi na Zayọn, unu atụkwala ndị Asịrịa egwu bụ ndị na-eti unu mkpara igwe, na-ewelikwa mkpọ megide unu dịka ndị Ijipt mere.
Therefore YHWH of hosts says: "My people who dwell in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrian, though he strike you with the rod, and lift up his staff against you, as Egypt did.
25 Nʼoge na-adịghị anya, iwe m ga-adajụ nʼebe unu nọ, ma ọ ga-ebili megide ha, laakwa ha nʼiyi.”
For yet a very little while, and the indignation against you will be accomplished, and my anger will be directed to his destruction."
26 Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, ga-eji ụtarị tie ha ihe dịka o sịrị tie ndị Midia ihe na nkume Oreb. Ọ ga-eweli mkpanaka ya nʼelu oke osimiri, ọ ga-eweli ya dịka o mere nʼIjipt.
YHWH of hosts will stir up a scourge against him, as in the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb. His rod will be over the sea, and he will lift it up like he did against Egypt.
27 Nʼụbọchị ahụ, aga m eme ka unu nwere onwe unu site nʼebe ndị Asịrịa nọ. Ụdọ igwe ha kenyere unu nʼolu ka m ga-adọbisi, wezuga ibu arọ unu.
It will happen in that day, that his burden will depart from off your shoulder, and his yoke from off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.
28 Ha erutela Ayịat; ugbu a, ha nọ na Migrọn. Ha na-edokọta ngwa agha ha na Mikmash.
He has come to Aiath. He has passed through Migron. At Michmash he stores his baggage.
29 Lee ka ha na-agabiga ụzọ warawara; ha ekpebiela ịnọ ọnọdụ abalị na Geba! Ndị Rema na-ama jijiji, obodo Gibea nke bụ obodo Sọl agbapụla ọsọ ndụ.
He went through the pass. He has lodged at Geba. Ramah trembles. Gibeah of Saul has fled.
30 Tienụ mkpu akwa unu ada Galim, geenụ ntị unu ndị Laisha! Leenụ ihe na-adanyere gị, gị Anatot!
Cry aloud with your voice, daughter of Gallim. Listen, Laishah. You poor Anathoth.
31 Lee na Madmena nọ nʼọsọ, ndị Gebim na-ezo onwe ha.
Madmenah is a fugitive. The inhabitants of Gebim flee for safety.
32 Ndị iro akwụsịla nʼobodo Nob taa; ha na-atụ ugwu Zayọn na Jerusalem aka, na-ekwere ya nʼisi.
This very day he will halt at Nob. He shakes his hand at the mountain of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Lee Onyenwe anyị, Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, ga-eji oke ike gbutuo ngalaba osisi niile. Ọ ga-egbutukwa osisi ndị dị elu, meekwa ka ndị toro ogologo dị ala.
Look, the Lord, YHWH of hosts, will lop the boughs with terror. The tall will be cut down, and the lofty will be brought low.
34 Ya onwe ya ga-egbutu ha niile ka e si eji anyụike egbutu osisi dị nʼoke ọhịa. Lebanọn ga-adakwa nʼihu Onye ahụ dị ike dịka osisi dị nʼoke ọhịa si ada.
He will cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.
