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 rely on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many, and in horsemen, because they are exceeding mighty; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD!
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.
Yet He also is wise, and bringeth evil, and doth not call back His words; but will arise against the house of the evil-doers, and against the help of them that work 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.
Now the Egyptians are men, and not God, and their horses flesh, and not spirit; so when the LORD shall stretch out His hand, both 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 saith the LORD unto me: Like as the lion, or the young lion, growling over his prey, though a multitude of shepherds be called forth against him, will not be dismayed at their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them; so will the LORD of hosts come down to fight upon mount Zion, and upon 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 hovering, so will the LORD of hosts protect Jerusalem; He will deliver it as He protecteth it, He will rescue it as He passeth over.
6 Lọghachitenụ azụ, unu bụ Izrel, laghachikwurunụ onye ahụ nke unu nupuru isi nʼebe ọdị ukwuu megide.
Turn ye unto Him against whom ye have deeply rebelled, O 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 they shall cast away every man his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto you for a sin.
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.
Then shall Asshur fall with the sword, not of man, and the sword, not of men, 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 his rock shall pass away by reason of terror, and his princes shall be dismayed at the ensign, saith the LORD, whose fire is in Zion, and His furnace in Jerusalem.
