Aịzaya 66
1 Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, “Eluigwe bụ ocheeze m, ụwa bụkwa ebe mgbakwasị ụkwụ m. Ọ bụ ụdị ụlọ gịnị ka ị ga-ewuru m? Ebee ka ebe izuike m ga-adị?”
Thus saith the Lord, The heauen is my throne, and the earth is my footestoole: where is that house that ye will builde vnto me? and where is that place of my rest?
2 Ọ bụghị aka m mere ihe ndị a niile, mee ka ha ji dịrị? Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara. “Ma olee ndị ihe ha na-atọ m ụtọ, ọ bụ ndị ahụ nwere obi umeala, ndị na-adịghị ebuli onwe ha elu, ndị na-amakwa jijiji nʼokwu m.
For all these things hath mine hand made, and all these things haue bene, sayth the Lord: and to him will I looke, euen to him, that is poore, and of a contrite spirite and trembleth at my wordes.
3 Ma onye ọbụla nke na-achụ aja ehi dịka nwoke na-egbu mmadụ, onye ọbụla jikwa nwa atụrụ achụ aja dị ka onye na-agbaji nkịta olu, onye ọbụla na-achụ aja mkpụrụ ọka dị ka onye na-eche ọbara ezi, otu a kwa, onye ọbụla na-esure ụda na-esi isi ụtọ nke ncheta dị ka onye na-efe arụsị. Ha ahọpụtarala onwe ha ụzọ nke ha, ha na-enwekwa mmasị nʼihe arụ ha niile.
He that killeth a bullocke, is as if he slewe a man: he that sacrificeth a sheepe, as if he cut off a dogges necke: he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swines blood: he that remembreth incense, as if he blessed an idole: yea, they haue chosen their owne wayes, and their soule deliteth in their abominations.
4 Ya mere, aga m ezitere ha ahụhụ dị egwu, mee ka ihe ahụ ha na-atụ egwu ya bịakwasị ha. Nʼihi na mgbe m kpọrọ ha oku, ha azaghị, mgbe m gwara ha okwu, ha egeghị ntị. Kama ha mere ihe ọjọọ nʼihu m, họrọkwa ime ihe ndị ahụ ha maara na m kpọrọ asị.”
Therefore will I chuse out their delusions, and I will bring their feare vpon them, because I called, and none woulde answere: I spake and they woulde not heare: but they did euill in my sight, and chose the things which I would not.
5 Nụrụnụ okwu Onyenwe anyị, unu ndị na-ama jijiji nʼokwu ya, “Ụmụnna unu, ndị kpọrọ unu asị, ndị chụpụkwara unu nʼihi aha m, ekwuola sị, ‘Ka a sọpụrụ Onyenwe anyị! Ka anyị lee ụdị ọṅụ ga-abụ nke unu!’ Ma a ga-etinye ha nʼọnọdụ ihere.
Heare the worde of the Lord, all ye that tremble at his worde, Your brethren that hated you, and cast you out for my Names sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appeare to your ioy, and they shall be ashamed.
6 Ọ bụ gịnị bụ mkpọtụ dị nʼime obodo? Gịnị bụ oke ụzụ na-ada nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị? Ọ bụ ụzụ Onyenwe anyị na-eme. Onye ahụ na-akwụghachi ndị iro ya ụgwọ ruuru ha.
A voyce soundeth from the citie, euen a voyce from the Temple, the voyce of the Lord, that recompenseth his enemies fully.
7 “Tupu ime amalite ime ya, ọ mụpụtalarị nwa ya. Tupu ihe mgbu ya ebido, ọ mụpụtala nwa nwoke.
Before she trauailed, she brought foorth: and before her paine came, she was deliuered of a man childe.
8 Onye jiri ntị ya nụtụ ihe dị otu a mbụ? Onye kwa ji anya ya hụ ihe dị otu a? A pụrụ ịmụpụta otu mba nʼotu ụbọchị? Ka e nwere ike ime ka otu obodo malite ịdị nʼotu ntabi anya? Lee na tupu ihe mgbu nke ọmụmụ nwa ya ebido Zayọn amụpụtala ụmụ ya.
Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seene such things? shall ye earth be brought forth in one day? or shall a nation be borne at once? for assoone as Zion trauailed, she brought foorth her children.
9 Mụ onwe m, m ga-eme ka nwa rute nʼoge ọmụmụ gharakwa ime ka a mụọ ya?” ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu. “M ga-emechi akpanwa mgbe m na-eme ka a mụpụta ya?” ka Chineke gị jụrụ.
Shall I cause to trauaile, and not bring forth? shall I cause to bring forth, and shall be baren, saith thy God?
10 “Soronụ Jerusalem ṅụrịa ọṅụ, soronụ ya nwee obi ụtọ, unu ndị niile hụrụ ya nʼanya; soronụ ya ṅụrịa ọṅụ nke ukwuu, unu ndị ruru ụjụ nʼihi ya.
Reioyce ye with Ierusalem, and be gladde with her, all ye that loue her: reioyce for ioy with her, all ye that mourne for her,
11 Nʼihi na ihe banyere Jerusalem ga-atọ unu ụtọ. Unu ga-aṅụjukwa ara nkasiobi ya afọ, ọ bụladị dịka nwantakịrị si enwe obi ụtọ mgbe ọ na-aṅụ ara nne ya nke na-agba nke ọma.”
That ye may sucke and be satisfied with the brestes of her consolation: that ye may milke out and be delited with ye brightnes of her glorie.
12 Nʼihi na ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Aga m eme ka udo bara ya ụba dịka osimiri, mee ka akụnụba niile nke ndị mba ọzọ dịrị ka mmiri na-asọbiga oke. Ọ ga-elekọta gị, kurukwa gị, makụọkwa gị nʼaka ya, wugharịakwa gị nʼikpere ya.
For thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I will extend peace ouer her like a flood, and the glorie of the Gentiles like a flowing streame: then shall ye sucke, ye shall be borne vpon her sides, and be ioyfull vpon her knees.
13 Dịka nne si akasị nwa ya obi, otu a ka m ga-esi kasịe unu obi. Ọ bụ nʼime Jerusalem ka a ga-akasị unu obi.”
As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you, and ye shall be comforted in Ierusalem.
14 Mgbe ị hụrụ ihe ndị a, obi gị ga-aṅụrị ọṅụ, ịga awasa dịka ahịhịa ọhụrụ; a ga-emekwa ka aka Onyenwe anyị pụta ìhè nʼebe ndị ohu ya nọ, ma a ga-egosi ndị iro ya oke iwe ya.
And when ye see this, your hearts shall reioyce, and your bones shall flourish like an herbe: and the hand of the Lord shall be knowen among his seruants, and his indignation against his enemies.
15 Nʼihi na lee, Onyenwe anyị ga-eji ọkụ bịa. Ụgbọala ya ga-adịkwa ka oke ifufe. Ọ ga-eji ọnụma gosi iwe ya, werekwa ọkụ na-enwu enwu baa mba.
For beholde, the Lord will come with fire, and his charets like a whirlewinde, that he may recompence his anger with wrath, and his indignation with the flame of fire.
16 Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ga-eji ọkụ na mma agha ya kpee ndị mmadụ niile ikpe. Ọ ga-egbukwa ọtụtụ mmadụ.
For the Lord will iudge with fire, and with his sworde all flesh, and the slaine of the Lord shall be many.
17 “Ndị ahụ niile na-edo onwe ha nsọ, ndị na-eme onwe ha ka ha dị ọcha nʼihi ịbanye nʼubi a gbara ogige, ndị ahụ na-eso onye ahụ nọ nʼetiti ndị ahụ na-eri anụ ezi, na oke, na ihe ndị ọzọ ahụ niile rụrụ arụ, ga-ezute ọnwụ nke nọ na-eche ha niile.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri ya.
They that sanctifie themselues, and purifie themselues in the gardens behinde one tree in the middes eating swines flesh, and such abomination, euen the mouse, shall be consumed together, sayeth the Lord.
18 “Ma mụ onwe m, amaara m nke ọma ihe ha zubere ma meekwa, ana m abịa ịchịkọta mba niile na-asụ asụsụ dị iche iche. Ha niile ga-abịakwa hụ ebube m.
For I will visite their workes, and their imaginations: for it shall come that I will gather all nations, and tongues, and they shall come, and see my glorie.
19 “Aga m edokwa ihe ịrịbama nʼetiti ha, zipụkwa ndị fọdụrụ ndụ nʼetiti ha ka ha gaa nʼobodo Tashish, na Libiya, na Lidiya (ndị na-agba àkụ nʼụta nke ọma) na Tubal, na Griis. E, ha ga-eje na mba niile nke dị anya, nʼofe osimiri, ebe ndị bi nʼime ya na-anụbeghị ihe banyere ịdị ukwuu nke m, maọbụ hụ ebube m. Ha ga-ekwusakwa ihe banyere ebube m nʼetiti mba niile dị iche iche.
And I will set a signe among them, and will send those that escape of them, vnto the nations of Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, and to them that drawe the bowe, to Tubal and Tauan, yles afarre off, that haue not heard my fame, neither haue seene my glorie, and they shall declare my glorie among the Gentiles.
20 Ha ga-akpọghachi ụmụnne unu niile site na mba niile, bịa nʼugwu nsọ m dị na Jerusalem, dịka onyinye a na-ewetara Onyenwe anyị. Ha ga-ebute ha nʼelu ịnyịnya, nʼụgbọ agha, nʼelu ụgbọala a na-adọkpụ adọkpụ, nʼelu ịnyịnya muul na nʼelu ịnyịnya kamel,” ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu. “Ha ga-ebubata ha dịka mgbe ndị Izrel na-ewebata onyinye mkpụrụ ha nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị nʼefere mmemme dị ọcha.
And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering vnto the Lord out of all nations, vpon horses, and in charets, and in horse litters, and vpon mules, and swift beastes, to Ierusalem mine holy Mountaine, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel, offer in a cleane vessell in the House of the Lord.
21 Aga m ahọrọkwa ụfọdụ ka ha bụrụ ndị nchụaja na ndị Livayị,” ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
And I will take of them for Priestes, and for Leuites, saith the Lord.
22 “Dịka eluigwe ọhụrụ na ụwa ọhụrụ ahụ nke m ga-eke ga-esi dịgide nʼihu m, otu a ka aha unu na agbụrụ unu ga-adịgide, ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
For as the newe heauens, and the newe earth which I will make, shall remaine before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seede and your name continue.
23 Ọ ga-abụkwa na site nʼotu Ọnwa ọhụrụ ruo nke ọzọ, sitekwa nʼotu ụbọchị izuike ruo na nke ọzọ ya, anụ ahụ niile bụ mmadụ ga-abịa, daa, kpọọ isiala nʼihu m,” ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
And from moneth to moneth, and from Sabbath to Sabbath shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.
24 “Ha ga-apụ, jee, lekwasị ozu ndị ahụ niile nwụrụ anwụ anya, bụ ndị ahụ niile nupuru isi megide m. Nʼihi na ikpuru ha agaghị anwụ anwụ, ọkụ a kwanyere agakwaghị anyụ anyụ. Ha ga-abụkwara mmadụ niile ihe na-asọ oyi.”
And they shall goe forth, and looke vpon the carkases of the men that haue transgressed against me: for their worme shall not dye, neither shall their fire be quenched, and they shalbe an abhorring vnto all flesh.
