Aịzaya 63

1 Onye bụ onye a si nʼEdọm na-abịa, onye si Bozra, nke uwe ya dị ọbara ọbara? Onye bụ onye a, yi uwe mara oke mma, onye na-azọ ije dịka ịba ụba nke ike ya si dị? “Ọ bu mụ onwe m, onye na-ekwu okwu nʼezi omume, onye dị ike ịzọpụta!”

'Who is this that cometh from Edom, with crimsoned garments from Bozrah? This that is glorious in his apparel, stately in the greatness of his strength?' — 'I that speak in victory, mighty to save.' —

2 Gịnị mere uwe gị ji na-acha ọbara ọbara, dịka uwe onye na-azọcha mkpụrụ vaịnị?

'Wherefore is Thine apparel red, and Thy garments like his that treadeth in the winevat?' —

3 “Azọchaala m ebe ịzọcha mkpụrụ vaịnị, naanị m zọchara ya; o nweghị onye sị na mba niile dị iche iche bịa nyere m aka. Azọchara m ha nʼiwe m, zọpịasịakwa ha nʼime oke ọnụma m; ọbara ha gbasasịrị nʼuwe m, ma metọsịa uwe m niile.

'I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the peoples there was no man with Me; yea, I trod them in Mine anger, and trampled them in My fury; and their lifeblood is dashed against My garments, and I have stained all My raiment.

4 Nʼihi na ọ bụ ụbọchị m ji abọ ọbọ; afọ mgbapụta m kwadoro eruola.

For the day of vengeance that was in My heart, and My year of redemption are come.

5 Elere m anya ma o nweghị onye bịara inyere m aka. O juru m anya, jukwa m ọnụ, na o nweghị onye pụtara inyere m aka. Nʼihi ya, aka m wetara m mmeri. Ọ bụkwa ọnụma juru m obi gbara m ume imezu ya.

And I looked, and there was none to help, and I beheld in astonishment, and there was none to uphold; therefore Mine own arm brought salvation unto Me, and My fury, it upheld Me.

6 Nʼiwe m, azọpịara mba niile dị iche iche; esitere m nʼọnụma juru m obi zọpịasịa ha. Emekwara ka ọbara ndụ ha bụrụ ihe a wụsiri nʼala.”

And I trod down the peoples in Mine anger, and made them drunk with My fury, and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth.'

7 Aga m ekwupụta ihe banyere ịhụnanya Onyenwe anyị. Aga m eto ya nʼihi ihe niile o mere. Aga m aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼihi ịdị mma ya nʼebe Izrel nọ, e, nʼihi ọtụtụ ihe ọma o mere nʼihi mmeso ọma niile o mesoro ụlọ Izrel, nke ọ na-emeso ha dịka obi ebere ya na ọmịiko ya si dị.

I will make mention of the mercies of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us; and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He hath bestowed on them according to His compassions, and according to the multitude of His mercies.

8 Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Ndị a bụ nke m; e, ha agakwaghị agọnarị m ọzọ.” Ya mere, ọ ghọọrọ ha Onye nzọpụta.

For He said: 'Surely, they are My people, children that will not deal falsely'; so He was their Saviour.

9 Nʼime mkpagbu ha niile, a kpagbukwara ya onwe ya, ọ bụkwa mmụọ ozi nke ihu ya zọpụtara ha. Nʼime ịhụnanya ya na obi ebere ya, ọ gbapụtara ha, bulie ha elu, kuru ha ogologo ụbọchị ndị a niile ndị gara aga.

In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.

10 Ma ha nupuru isi megide ya, meekwa ka obi jọọ Mmụọ Nsọ ya njọ. Ọ bụ ya mere o ji ghọọ onye iro ha, lụsokwa ha ọgụ nʼonwe ya.

But they rebelled, and grieved His holy spirit; therefore He was turned to be their enemy, Himself fought against them.

11 Mgbe ahụ, ndị ya chetara ụbọchị ndị ahụ gara aga, ụbọchị Mosis na ndị nke ya. Olee ebe onye ahụ nọ nke mere ka ha si nʼoke osimiri rigopụta, ya na onye ọzụzụ atụrụ nke igwe atụrụ ya? Olee ebe onye ahụ tinyere Mmụọ Nsọ ya nʼetiti ha nọ.

Then His people remembered the days of old, the days of Moses: 'Where is He that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of His flock? Where is He that put His holy spirit in the midst of them?

12 Olee onye ahụ ike ya mere ka osimiri kewaa abụọ nʼihu ha, mgbe Mosis weliri aka ya elu, meekwa ka aha ya dịgide ruo ebighị ebi?

That caused His glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses? That divided the water before them, to make Himself an everlasting name?

13 Onye duuru ha gafee mmiri dị oke omimi? Dịka ịnyịnya na-agba ọsọ nʼọzara, ike agwụghị ha.

That led them through the deep, as a horse in the wilderness, without stumbling?

14 Dịka ehi na-ata ahịhịa na ndagwurugwu, Mmụọ Onyenwe anyị nyere ha izuike. Otu a ka i si duo ndị gị, ime ka aha gị bụrụ ihe a na-asọpụrụ asọpụrụ.

As the cattle that go down into the valley, the spirit of the LORD caused them to rest; so didst Thou lead Thy people, to make Thyself a glorious name.'

15 Onyenwe anyị, biko site nʼeluigwe, ebe obibi nsọ gị, lee anyị anya. Olee ebe nʼịnụ ọkụ nʼobi na ike gị dị? Olee ebe obi ebere gị na ọmịiko gị dịkwa?

Look down from heaven, and see, even from Thy holy and glorious habitation; Where is Thy zeal and Thy mighty acts, the yearning of Thy heart and Thy compassions, now restrained toward me?

16 Ma gị onwe gị, bụ Nna anyị, a sịkwarị na Ebraham amaghị anyị maọbụ Izrel agọnarị anyị, gị onwe gị, Onyenwe anyị, bụ Nna anyị, onye Mgbapụta anyị ka ị na-azakwa siterị na mgbe ochie.

For Thou art our Father; for Abraham knoweth us not, and Israel doth not acknowledge us; Thou, O LORD, art our Father, our Redeemer from everlasting is Thy name.

17 Onyenwe anyị, gịnị mere i ji na-eme ka anyị si nʼụzọ gị kpafuo na-eme ka obi anyị sie ike otu a, na anyị adịghị atụ egwu gị? Lọghachi nʼihi ndị ohu gị, nʼihi ebo ndị ahụ bụ ihe nketa gị.

O LORD, why dost Thou make us to err from Thy ways, and hardenest our heart from Thy fear? Return for Thy servants' sake, the tribes of Thine inheritance.

18 Ọ bụ naanị nwa oge nta ka ndị gị nwetara ebe nsọ gị, ma ugbu a, ndị iro anyị azọdala ebe nsọ gị.

Thy holy people they have well nigh driven out, our adversaries have trodden down Thy sanctuary.

19 Anyị bụ nke gị site na mgbe ochie, ma ị naghị achị nʼebe ha nọ, ha bụ ndị a na-akpọkwasịghịkwa aha gị.

We are become as they over whom Thou never borest rule, as they that were not called by Thy name.
