Aịzaya 31
1 Ahụhụ dịrị ndị na-aga Ijipt ịchọ enyemaka, ndị nchekwube ha dị nʼike ndị ha na-agba ịnyịnya, ndị na-atụkwasị obi ha nʼụgbọala ha, nke dị ọtụtụ, ndị na-atụkwasịkwa obi ha nʼịdị ike nke ndị Ijipt na-agba ịnyịnya. Ma ha adịghị ele anya inyeaka site nʼaka Onye Nsọ Izrel; ha adịghị arịọkwa ya ka Onyenwe anyị nyere ha aka.
Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, and depend on horses, and confide in chariots because [they are] many, and in horsemen because they are very strong; and who look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek Jehovah!
2 Ma ya onwe ya maara ihe, ọ pụrụ iweta ịla nʼiyi. Ọ dịkwaghị agbanwe okwu ya. Ọ ga-ebili megide ndị mba na-eme ihe ọjọọ; ha na ndị niile na-enyere ndị na-eme ajọ ihe aka.
But he also is wise, and he bringeth evil, and recalleth not his words; and he will arise against the house of evildoers, and against the help of workers of iniquity.
3 Nʼihi na ndị Ijipt bụ naanị mmadụ, ha abụghị Chineke! Ịnyịnya ha nwekwara anụ ahụ, ha abụghị mmụọ. Mgbe Onyenwe anyị setịpụrụ aka ya imegide ha, ha ga-asọ ngọngọ; ndị ha na-enyere aka ga-adakwa. Ha niile ga-alakọkwa nʼiyi.
And the Egyptians are men, and not God, and their horses flesh, and not spirit; and Jehovah shall stretch forth his hand, and he that helpeth shall stumble, and he that is helped shall fall, and they all shall perish together.
4 Ma ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị gwara m, “Dịka ọdụm na-agbọ ụja, na-ebigbọ nʼelu anụ ọ dọgburu, nʼagbanyeghị na-akpọkọtara igwe ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ imegide ya, ọ naghị atụ egwu mkpu ha, mkpọtụ ụzụ ha adịghị enyekwa ya nsogbu, Otu a kwa, Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile ga-arịdata ibu agha nʼugwu Zayọn, na nʼugwu nta ya niile.
For thus hath Jehovah said unto me: Like as the lion and the young lion growling over his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, is not afraid of their voice, nor giveth way before the multitude of them; so will Jehovah of hosts come down to war upon mount Zion, and on the hill thereof.
5 Dịka nnụnụ si efegharị nʼelu akwụ ya ichebe ụmụ ya, otu a ka mụ bụ Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile ga-esi chebe Jerusalem, ọ ga-ekpuchi ya napụta ya, ọ ghaghị ịgabiga ya, gbapụtakwa ya.”
As birds with outstretched wings, so will Jehovah of hosts cover Jerusalem; covering, he will also deliver, passing over, he will rescue [it].
6 Lọghachitenụ azụ, unu bụ Izrel, laghachikwurunụ onye ahụ nke unu nupuru isi nʼebe ọdị ukwuu megide.
Turn unto him from whom ye have deeply revolted, ye children of Israel;
7 Amaara m nke ọma na ụbọchị ahụ na-abịa, mgbe onye ọbụla nʼime unu ga-atụfu arụsị ọlaedo na ọlaọcha niile nke aka mmehie unu kpụrụ.
for in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver and his idols of gold, which your sinful hands have made unto you.
8 “Mgbe ahụ, Asịrịa ga-ada, kama ọ bụghị site na mma agha mmadụ, mma agha na-abụghị nke mmadụ efu ga-erichapụ ha. Ha ga-esi nʼihu mma agha gbaa ọsọ, ma ụmụ okorobịa ha ka a ga-akpụrụ tinye nʼọrụ mmanye.
And Asshur shall fall by the sword, not of a great man; and the sword, not of a mean man, shall devour him: and he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall become tributary;
9 Obodo ha niile e wusiri ike ga-ada nʼihi oke egwu, ndị ọchịagha ha ga-atụkwa ụjọ mgbe ha hụrụ ọkọlọtọ agha.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya. Onye ọkụ ya dị na Zayọn, onye ekwu igwe ọkụ ya dị na Jerusalem.
and for fear, he shall pass over to his rock, and his princes shall be afraid of the banner, saith Jehovah, whose fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem.
