Aizaia 58

1 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, Kagra akohenka ke'zana otinka ranke hunka ufema reaza hunka kezatinka, Nagri kema rufu'netagiza vaheni'a kea nezmasaminka, Jekopu naga'mo'zama nehaza kumi zamavu zamava zankura zamasamio.

[Yahweh said to me], “Shout loudly! Shout like [SIM] a loud trumpet! Shout to warn my Israeli people about their sins [DOU]!

2 Hianagi fatgo zamavu'zmavama nehaza vahe'mo'zama nehazankna hu'za maka zupa Nagritega nunamuna nehu'za, Nagri navu'navaza'ma keama hu'zanku musena nehaze. Anumzazmimofo kasegea zamefi hunomiza, Nagri tava'onte'ma erava'oma huzankuke musena nehaze.

They worship me every day; [they come to my temple because they say that] they are eager to know what I want them to do. They act as though they are a nation that does things that are righteous, who would never abandon their God. They request me to decide matters justly, and they delight to come to worship me.

3 Ana nehu'za tagrama ne'za a'o nehuta, tavufgama anteramita nemanunana nonkano hu'za nehaze. Ana kema haza nona'a Ra Anumzamo'na amanage nehue, anama ne'zama a'o huta nunamuma haza zupa, tamagra'ama tamazeri muse hu'zankuke tamagesa nentahita, eri'za vahetamia tutu huzmantazage'za eri'zana e'nerize.

[They say], ‘We have (fasted/abstained from eating food) to please you, but you did not [RHQ] notice our doing that. We humbled ourselves, but you did not [RHQ] pay any attention!’ I will tell you why I did not pay attention. It is because when you fast, you do it only to please yourselves, and you act cruelly toward all your workers.

4 Tamagra ne'zana atreta nunamuna nehazanagi, tamagra kehakare huta hafra nehuta, tamazana anakita hara nehaze. Hagi ne'zama a'oma haza zupa e'inahu avu'ava'ma hanazana, Nagra monafinkatira nunamuntamia ontahigahue.

You fast, but you also quarrel and fight [with each other] with your fists. [Doing things like that while] you fast will [certainly] not cause [me] to hear your prayers [where I am], high in heaven.

5 Tamagrama antahi'zana, ne'zama a'o hu'na zupa, zaho'mo traza eri pagagi higeno mopafi agona reaza huta tavufama eri anteneramita, tasunku kukena eri nehuta, tanefapi mase'neta nunamuma nehuna zankura, Ra Anumzamo'a muse nehie huta nehazanagi, tamagra havige nehaze.

You [act as though] [IRO] you humble yourselves [RHQ] by bowing your heads like [SIM] [the tops of] reeds bend [when the wind blows], and you wear [RHQ] rough clothes and cover your heads with ashes [like people do when they are grieving]. That is what you do when you are fasting, but do you really think [RHQ] that will please me?

6 E'ina huta ne'zama a'o huta nunamuma nehaza zankura nave'nosianki, Nagri'ma navenesiana, havigema huta kinafima zamavarente'naza vahera katufenezmanteta, knazama zamita zamazeri havizama nehaza vahera zamatrenke'za fru hu'za nevanageta, bulimakao afu'mofo anankempima karenamare zafama antazaza hutama vahe'ma knama nezamiza zana maka atre vagareho.

No, that is not the kind of fasting that I desire. What I really want [RHQ] is for you to free those who have been unjustly put in prison [DOU], and to encourage those who are (treated cruelly/oppressed); I want you to free those who have been oppressed in any way.

7 Nagri'ma navenesiana amanahu tamavutamava hiho, Ne'zanku'ma atupa'ma hanaza vahera ne'zana nezamita, zamunte omane vahe'mo'zama nonku'ma nehakesageta, nontamifi zamavare nenteta, kukenagu'ma atupa'ma hu'nesnaza vahera kukena zamiho. Ana nehutma tamagri koramo'zama knafima mani'nesanageta, ozamatreta zamaza hiho.

I want you to [RHQ] share your food with those who are hungry and to allow those who have no houses to stay in your houses. Give clothes to those who do not have clothes, and do not hide from your relatives who need help from you.

8 Tamagra ana avu'ava'ma hanaza zamo'a nantera zagemo'ma hanatino remsa hiaza nehina, ame hu'na tamazeri knamaresugeno fatgo tamavu tamava zamo'a ugota huno nevanigeno, Anumzamofo hihamu masazamo'a tamefira remsa huramanteno ne-eno kegava huramantegahie.

If you do those things, [what you do for others will be like] [SIM] a light that shines when it dawns. The troubles [that have been caused by your sins] will end quickly. Others will know about your righteous behavior, and with my glorious presence I will protect you from behind [like I protected the Israeli people when they left Egypt].

9 Hagi kezamatita nunamuma hanageno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a kenona huramantegahie. Hagi tamagra taza huo hutama krafama hanageno'a, Nagra ama mani'noe huno hugahie. Hagi vahe'ma knama nezamiza zana netretma, vahe zamavufina tamazana asuteta zamavufintankema nehaza zama netreta,

Then you will call out to me, and I will [quickly] answer [and say that I will help you].’ Stop (oppressing people/treating people cruelly); stop falsely accusing people; and stop saying evil [things about people].

10 ne'zanku'ma atupa'ma nehaza vahe'ene knafima mani'naza vahe'ma zamazama hanageno'a, ana tamavu tamava zamo'a hanimpinti tavimo remsa nehiaza nehina, hanimpi manisazanagi zage ferupima maniaza huta manigahaze.

Give food to those who are hungry, and give to people who are afflicted/suffering the things that they need. [Your doing that will be like] [MET] a light that shines in the darkness; instead of doing evil to people [MET], [the good things that you do for them will be like] [SIM] sunshine at noontime.

11 Ana nehanageno Ra Anumzamo'a maka knafina kegava huramanteno nevuno, hagege kokampina nazankuro atupa'ma hanazana tamazeri knare hugahie. Ana nehuno zaferinatamia azeri hankavetisanigeta, tretre huno nehagea hozagna nehuta, kampu'i timo oraneno evu vava hiaza hugahaze.

[I], Yahweh, will guide you continually, and I will give you good things to satisfy you. I will enable you to remain strong and healthy. You will be like [SIM] a garden that is well watered, like [SIM] a spring that never dries up.

12 Hanki ko'ma havizama hu'nea ranra kumatamina tamagra ete eri so'e huta negita, tamagehe'zama korapa'ma noma ki'naza marufi eri zugage huta nona kigahaze. Ana nehanage'za vahe'mo'za tamagrikura hu'za, havizama hu'nea keginane, nontamine, kumapi ne'onse kantamina eri zugage hu'za ki vahere hu'za hugahaze.

[Your people] will rebuild the cities that were destroyed long ago; they will build [houses] on top of the old foundations. People will say that you are the ones who are repairing the holes [in the city walls], and who are repairing the streets where people live.

13 Ra Anumzamo'a huno, Nagrama mani fruhu knani'e hu'nama huhampari'noa kna Sabatimofo kasegea rutagreta tamagra'a tamavesi'zana amagera onteho. Ana nehuta Sabati knagura Ra Anumzamofo kna me'ne huta antahinemita, tamagra'ama tamazeri musema hanaza zankura nohaketa, amunte omane nanekenena osiho.

Do not travel [MTY] long distances on Sabbath/rest days, and on Sabbath days do not do only the things that you delight to do. Enjoy the Sabbath days, and consider them to be delightful. The Sabbath days are my holy days. Honor me, Yahweh, in everything that you do [on the Sabbath days]. Do not talk about and do things [only] to please yourselves. If you do all the things that I have just now told you to do,

14 Tamagrama mani fruhu kna Sabatimofo kasegema amage'ma antesageno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a asomu huramantegahie. Ana hanigeta neramageho Jekopuma eri santi haregahanema huno Ra Anumzamo'ma huhamparinte'nea mopafima me'nea agonafi tamatrenigeta mani so'e nehuta, ne'zana neneta musenkasea hugahaze. Ra Anumzamo'a agra'a agipinti ama nanekea huama hu'ne.

I will enable you to be joyful. I will greatly honor you; [I will honor you everywhere!] I will give to you the [blessings] that I gave to your ancestor Jacob. [Those things will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
