Aịzaya 65
1 “Ana m egosipụta onwe m nye ndị ahụ na-adịghị ajụ ase m. Ọ bụkwa ndị ahụ na-adịghị achọsi m ike na-achọta m. Ana m agwa mba ahụ nke na-adịghị akpọku aha m, asịrị m, ‘Lee m, anọ m nʼebe a.’
I have bene sought of them that asked not: I was found of them that sought me not: I sayd, Beholde me, beholde me, vnto a nation that called not vpon my Name.
2 Ogologo ụbọchị niile ka m gbasapụrụ aka m abụọ nye ndị na-enupu isi, bụ ndị na-agbaso ụzọ na-ezighị ezi ndị a na-agbaso ihe ọbụla ha tụpụtara nʼuche ha,
I haue spred out mine handes all the day vnto a rebellious people, which walked in a way that was not good, euen after their owne imaginations:
3 ndị na-anọgide na-akpasu m iwe nʼihu m mgbe niile, ndị na-achụ aja nʼubi ha a gbara ogige, nʼebe ịchụ aja eji brik wuo,
A people that prouoked me euer vnto my face: that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense vpon brickes.
4 ndị na-anọdụ nʼetiti ili, ma na-anọdụkwa ọnọdụ abalị nʼebe nzuzo dị iche iche; ndị na-eri anụ ezi, ndị ite ofe ha jupụtara nʼanụ na-adịghị ọcha;
Which remaine among the graues, and lodge in the desarts, which eate swines flesh, and the broth of things polluted are in their vessels.
5 ndị na-asịrịta onwe ha, ‘Nọdụ iche, Abịala m nso, nʼihi na ị ga-emerụ m, adị m nsọ karịa gị!’ Ma ndị dị otu a dịka anwụrụ ọkụ nʼimi m. Ha bụ ọkụ na-enwu ehihie na nʼabalị.
Which say, Stand apart, come not neere to me: for I am holier then thou: these are a smoke in my wrath and a fire that burneth all the day.
6 “Lee, edeela ya rịị nʼihu m sị: Agaghị m agba nkịtị, aga m akwụghachi nʼuju. E, aga m akwụghachi ha.
Beholde, it is written before me: I wil not keepe silence, but will render it and recompense it into their bosome.
7 Ọ bụghị naanị maka mmehie ha, kama maka mmehie nna nna ha niile,” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Nʼihi na ha surere aja nsure ọkụ nʼelu ugwu dị iche iche, kparịakwa m nʼelu ugwu nta niile. Aga m akwụghachi ha nʼuju, nʼihi ihe ndị a niile ha mere nʼoge gara aga.”
Your iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers shalbe together (sayth the Lord) which haue burnt incense vpon the mountaines, and blasphemed me vpon the hilles: therefore wil I measure their olde worke into their bosome.
8 Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, “Dịka a na-achọta mmanya site nʼụyọkọ mkpụrụ vaịnị ndị mmadụ asị, ‘Ebibila ya, nʼihi na ngọzị ka dị nʼime ha,’ otu a ka m ga-eme nʼihi ndị ohu m; Agaghị m ebibicha ha niile.
Thus sayth the Lord, As the wine is found in the cluster, and one sayth, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it, so will I doe for my seruants sakes, that I may not destroy them whole.
9 Aga m eme ka mkpụrụ site na Jekọb pụta, sitekwa na Juda nweta ndị ga-enweta ugwu m niile. Ndị m họpụtara ga-eketa ha, ndị ohu m ga-ebikwa nʼebe ahụ.
But I will bring a seede out of Iaakob, and out of Iudah, that shall inherit my mountaine: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my seruants shall dwell there.
10 Sharọn ga-aghọkwa ebe ịta nri nke igwe anụ ụlọ; Ndagwurugwu Akọ ga-abụkwa ebe izuike nye igwe ehi, na ndị m na-achọsi m ike.
And Sharon shalbe a sheepefolde, and the valley of Achor shalbe a resting place for the cattell of my people, that haue sought me.
11 “Ma unu ndị wezugara onwe unu site nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ, ndị chezọrọ ugwu nsọ m, ndị na-edozi tebul maka Ihuọma, ndị na-agbaju mmanya agwara ọgwa nʼiko maka Akara aka.
But ye are they that haue forsaken the Lord and forgotten mine holy Mountaine, and haue prepared a table for the multitude, and furnish the drinke offerings vnto the number.
12 Aga m eme ka unu zute mma agha; unu niile ga-adakwa mgbe a na-egbu unu. Nʼihi na akpọrọ m unu ma unu azaghị; mgbe m gwara unu okwu, unu aṅaghị ntị. Unu kpachapụrụ anya mehie megide m nʼihu, họrọkwa ime ihe ndị ahụ unu maara nke ọma na m kpọrọ asị.”
Therefore wil I number you to the sword, and all you shall bowe downe to the slaughter, because I called, and ye did not answere: I spake, and ye heard not, but did euil in my sight, and did chuse that thing which I would not.
13 Ya mere, nke a bụ ihe Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, “Ndị ohu m ga-eriju afọ, ma unu ga-anọ agụụ, akpịrị ga-akpọkwa unu nkụ, ma ha ga-aṅụ mmiri. Unu ga-anọ nʼọnụma na ihere, ma ha ga-anọ nʼọṅụ.
Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Beholde, my seruants shall eate, and ye shalbe hungrie: beholde, my seruants shall drinke, and ye shall be thirstie: beholde, my seruants shall reioyce, and ye shalbe ashamed.
14 Ndị ohu m ga-abụ abụ nʼihi ọṅụ nke jupụtara nʼobi ha, ma unu ga-akwa akwa, nʼihi ihe mgbu nke obi unu, tiekwa mkpu akwa nʼihi obi ntiwa nke mmụọ unu.
Beholde, my seruants shall sing for ioye of heart, and ye shall crye for sorow of heart, and shall howle for vexation of minde.
15 Unu ga-ahapụ aha unu nye ndị m họpụtara nye onwe m ka ọ bụrụ ihe ha ji abụ ọnụ; nʼihi na Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị ga-etigbu unu, ma ọ ga-akpọ ndị ohu ya aha ọzọ.
And ye shall leaue your name as a curse vnto my chosen: for the Lord God shall slay you and call his seruants by another name.
16 Onye ọbụla na-ekpe ekpere nʼala ahụ, ga-eme otu a nʼaha Chineke nke eziokwu, onye ọbụla na-aṅụkwa iyi nʼime ala ahụ ga-aṅụ iyi nʼaha Chineke nke eziokwu. Nʼihi na-echezolam nsogbu niile ndị gara aga, zokwa ha site nʼanya m.
He that shall blesse in the earth, shall blesse himselfe in the true God, and he that sweareth in the earth, shall sweare by the true God: for the former troubles are forgotten, and shall surely hide themselues from mine eyes.
17 “Nʼihi na lee, ana m eke eluigwe ọhụrụ na ụwa ọhụrụ. Ọ dịghị onye ga-echetakwa ndị ochie ahụ ọzọ; ọ gaghị abatakwa nʼechiche onye ọbụla.
For lo, I will create newe heauens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembred nor come into minde.
18 Ma ṅụrịanụ ọṅụ, tegharịakwa mgbe niile nʼobi ụtọ nʼihi ihe nke mụ onwe m na-eke, nʼihi na-aga eke Jerusalem ka ọ bụrụ ihe ọṅụ ndị ya ga-abụkwa ihe obi ụtọ.
But be you glad and reioyce for euer in the things that I shall create: for beholde, I will create Ierusalem, as a reioycing and her people as a ioye,
19 Aga m aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼihi Jerusalem, nweekwa obi ụtọ nʼihi ndị m; a gaghị anụkwa olu ịkwa akwa nʼime ya ọzọ, maọbụ olu iti mkpu akwa.
And I wil reioyce in Ierusalem, and ioye in my people, and the voyce of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voyce of crying.
20 “Ọ dịghịkwa nwa ọhụrụ nwụchuru anwụchu ga-adị nʼebe ahụ ọzọ, a gaghị ahụkwa agadi nwoke nke na-anọzughị ụbọchị ndụ ya; nʼihi na a ga-agụnye onye nwụrụ mgbe ọ gbara narị afọ tupu ọ nwụọ dị ka nwantakịrị; a ga-agụkwa onye na-anọrughị narị afọ dịka onye a bụrụ ọnụ.
There shall be no more there a childe of yeeres, nor an olde man that hath not filled his dayes: for he that shall be an hundreth yeeres old, shall dye as a yong man: but the sinner being an hundreth yeeres olde shall be accursed.
21 Ha ga-ewu ụlọ, biekwa nʼime ya; ha ga-akụkwa ubi vaịnị, riekwa mkpụrụ ha.
And they shall build houses and inhabite them, and they shall plant vineyards, and eate the fruite of them.
22 Ndị m agaghị ewukwa ụlọ hapụrụ ya ndị ọzọ, maọbụ ghaa mkpụrụ nʼubi nke ndị ọzọ ga-aghọrọ rie. Nʼihi na dịka osisi si adị ndụ ogologo oge otu a ka ndị m ga-esi dịkwa ndụ ogologo oge. Ha ga-aṅụrịkwa ọṅụ nʼihe ahụ ha ji aka ha rụpụta.
They shall not build, and another inhabite: they shall not plant, and another eate: for as the dayes of the tree are the dayes of my people, and mine elect shall inioye in olde age the worke of their handes.
23 Ha agaghị adọgbu onwe ha nʼọrụ nʼefu. Ha agaghị amụtakwa ụmụ ndị ga-emesịa nwụchuo ọnwụ. Nʼihi na ha ga-abụ ndị Onyenwe anyị gọziri, ha na ụmụ ụmụ ha.
They shall not labour in vaine, nor bring forth in feare: for they are the seede of the blessed of the Lord, and their buds with them.
24 Tupu ha akpọkuo m, aga m aza ha. Mgbe ha ka nọ na-agwa m banyere mkpa ha, aga m anụ, zakwa ekpere ha.
Yea, before they call, I will answere, and whiles they speake, I will heare.
25 Nkịta ọhịa na nwa atụrụ ga-atakọ nri nʼotu ebe, ọdụm ga-ata ahịhịa dịka ehi, ma agwọ ọjọọ niile ga-ata aja! Ha agaghị emerụ ihe ọbụla ahụ, maọbụ bibie ihe ọbụla nʼugwu nsọ m.” Ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
The wolfe and the lambe shall feede together, and the lyon shall eate strawe like the bullocke: and to the serpent dust shall be his meate. They shall no more hurt nor destroy in all mine holy Mountaine, saith the Lord.
