Aizaia 8

1 Hagi anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne, Kagra ra avontafe eritenka, ana avontafepina avo zotareti amatfama hu'are ranra avompinti, Maher-Salal-Has-Bazie hunka krento.

Then Yahweh said to me, “Make a large signboard. And write clearly on it, ‘Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz’ [which means ‘quickly (plunder/take by force) and steal everything’].”

2 Hagi ana avoma negrana nanekenema eme keteke huama'ma hana'a netre'na, pristi ne' Uriane, Jeberekia nemofo Zekaraiakizini huznantanena emani'neke kegaha'e.

[So] I requested Uriah the [Supreme] Priest and Jeberekiah’s son Zechariah, men who were both honest/trustworthy witnesses, to watch me as I was doing that.

3 Hagi anankema hutege'na a' ni'amo'a kasnampa a'kina agrane umasogeno amu'ene huno ne' mofavre kasente'ne. Ana higeno Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne, Ana mofavremofona Maher-Salal-Has-Bazi'e hunka agi'a antemio hu'ne.

Then I had sex with [EUP] [my wife, who was] a prophetess, and she became pregnant and [then] gave birth to a son. Then Yahweh said to me, “Give him the name Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz (which means ‘suddenly attacked, quickly conquered’),

4 Na'ankure ana mofavremo'a nena huno nenfage nenrerage huno kea osu'nesnigeno, Damaskasi kuma'ene Sameria kumapinti fenozana, Asiria kini ne'mo ha' eme huzamagatereno ana maka erino mopa'arega vugahie.

because before he is old enough to say ‘papa’ or ‘mama’, the King of Assyria will [come with his army and] quickly take away all the valuable things in Damascus and in Samaria.”

5 Hagi mago'ene Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne,

Yahweh spoke to me again and said, “[Tell the people of Judah, ]

6 Siloa timo'ma akoheno fru huno'ma eneviaza hu'na Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na ama vahera fru huzmante'na neoanagi, zamagra anazana ke amara osu'za zamefi hunenami'za kini ne' Resinine Remalia nemofo Israeli kini ne'enena razampi antahi musena huznante'naze.

‘[I have taken good care of] you people, but you have rejected that, [thinking that] my help was very little, like [MET] the little canal through which water flows from the Gihon Spring into Jerusalem. Instead, you have been happy [to request help from] King Rezin and King Pekah.

7 E'ina hu'negu tamagerfa hu'na, Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na Asiria kini nera hunte'nugeno, Yufretisi rantimo'ma tusi ti hageno ne-eno ana maka'zama refite vagareaza huno, rama'a sondia vahe'ane eno hara eme huzmantegahie.

Therefore, I will cause the people of Judah to be attacked by [the powerful army of] the King of Assyria, which will be [like] a great flood from the [Euphrates] River. Their soldiers will [be everywhere in your country, like] a river that overflows all its banks.

8 Hagi timo hageno ne-eno vahe'ma eme azeri anakrigeno anankempi eme atreaza huno, ana maka Juda mopafina ha' vahe'moke'za mani avitegahie huno hu'ne. Ana hu'neanagi [Imanueli] Ra Anumzamo'a tagrane mani'neankino, Agra agekona rutareno mopatamia refiteno kegava hugahie.

Those soldiers will go all over Judah— [like a river whose water] [MET] rises as high as a person’s neck. Their army will spread over the land [quickly], like an eagle, and they will cover your entire land! But I will be with you!’”

9 Hagi ha' vahetima tva'onte'ene afete'enema mani'naza vahe'mota tamagesa anteta antahiho, tamagra sondia vahetamia eri tru hutma hara eme hurantegahaze. Hianagi kasamreta hara osnage'za, tamagrira tamahe'za rehapatitregahaze.

Listen, all you [people in] distant countries! [You can] prepare to attack Judah. [You can] prepare [for battle, and shout your] war-cries, but your [armies will] be crushed/shattered!

10 Tamagra atru hutma e'ina hugahune hutma kea anakigahaze. Hianagi ana nanekemo'a nena'a fore osuno, amne zankna hugahie. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a tagrane mani'ne.

[You can] prepare for what you will do [to attack Judah], but what you plan to do will not happen! You will not succeed, because God is with us!

11 Hagi Ra Anumzamo'a hankavenentake azanuti nagofetu nenteno koro ke hunanteno, kagra ama vahe'mokizmi zamavu zamavara amagera onto huno huhankavetino nehuno, amanage hu'ne.

Yahweh strongly warned me [MTY] not to act like the [other] people in Judah did. He said to me,

12 Ama vahe'mo'za hu'za, mago'a vahe'mo'zama Juda vahe'ma zamazeri haviza hunaku ke ananekizema hu'zama hanaza nanekegura, tamage huta korora osiho. Ana nehuta zamagrama koro'ma nehazaza huta, koro'ma hanaza zantera tamagra korera osiho.

“Do not say that everything that people do is conspiring/rebelling [against the government], like [other] people say, and do not (be afraid of/worry about) the things that other people are afraid of.

13 Hianagi hanavenentake Ra Anumzamo'a huno, tamagrama keta antahitama hanazana Nagrikura ruotage hu'nea Ra Anumzana mani'ne hutma nentahita, Nagrikuke korora hiho.

[I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, am the one you should consider to be holy. And I am the one you should fear, the one you should revere.

14 Ana hu'neanki'na Nagra fra'maki havega mani'ne'na, Israeline Juda vahetera ra kampi mago tanafa'ma hu'za masesaza havegna hu'na mani'nesnuge'za, maka vahe'mo'za tanafa hu'za masegahaze. Ana nehu'na Jerusalemi kumapima mani'naza Israeli vahetera kukone krifumo zamazeriankna hu'na kama vanoma hanafina manigahue.

I will protect you(sg). [But as for] the [other] people [MTY] in Israel and Judah, I will be [like] [MET] a stone that causes people to stumble, a rock that causes them to fall down. [And as for] the people of Jerusalem, I will be [like] [MET] a trap or a snare [DOU].

15 Hagi ana hu'nesnuge'za maka vahe'mo'za ana have agofetu tanafa hu'za masesage'za zamazeriza kina rezmantegahaze.

Many [people] will stumble and fall down and never get up again. They will experience great troubles; they will be captured [by their enemies].”

16 Hagi nagra Aisaia'na, Ra Anumzamo'ma nanekema nasamige'nama krentoa avontafera erigite'na, ana agofetura nazanko avona antete'na namage'ma [disaipol] nentaza nagara zami'noe.

[So, I say to you who are my disciples], seal up this scroll on which I have written the messages that God has given to me, and give his instructions to [others] who have accompanied me.

17 Hagi nagra Israeli vahe'ma amefima huzami'nea Ra Anumzamofonku avega ante'na mani'nena agrite amuhara hugahie.

I will wait to see what Yahweh [will do]. He has rejected the descendants [MTY] of Jacob, but I will confidently expect him to help me.

18 Saioni agonafima nemania Hankavenentake Ra Anumzamo, nagranema amama mani'naza mofavreramina nami'ne. E'ina hu'neankino tagri'ma tatregetama mani'nonana, Israeli vahete'ma henkama erifore'ma hania zantamimofonte mago avame'zankna huta menina mani'none.

I and the children that Yahweh has given to me are [like] signs to warn [the people of] Israel; we are warnings from the Commander of the armies of angels the one who lives [in his temple] on Zion Hill [in Jerusalem].

19 Hanki mago'a vahe'mo'za tamagrikura hu'za, sumisumi'ma nehu'za fri vahe hankro'enema keagama nehaza vahete vuta antahintahi ome eriho hu'zama nehazana, inankna huno fri'nenia vahe'mo'a kasefa'ma huno mani'nea vahera antahintahia amigahie? Na'a hunege'za vahe'mo'za Anumzamofontega nunamuna hu'za antahia nonkaze?

Some people may urge you(pl) to (consult/go and talk with) those who talk with the spirits of dead people or with those who say that they receive messages from those spirits. They whisper and mutter [about what we should do in the future]. But God is [RHQ] the one whom we should ask to guide us! It is ridiculous [RHQ] for people who are alive to request spirits of dead people to tell us [what we should do]!

20 Vahe'mo'zama keagama hanafima, Anumzamofo kasegene trakemo'ma hu'nenia kante'ma ante'zama keagama osnazana, e'i ana vahe'mo'za hanizampi mani'naze.

Pay attention to God’s instructions and teaching! If people do not say things that agree with what God teaches us, [what they say is worthless]. [It is as though] those people are in darkness.

21 Tusi zamata negrina zamagakura nehanage'za, kokankoka ama mopafina vano vano hugahaze. Zamagazamo'ma tusizama hanige'za, eri zamarimpahe'za, kini zamimofone Anumza zamimofona huhaviza hugahaze. Ana nehu'za monafi zamavua ke nagamutegahaze.

They will wander through the land, worried/discouraged and hungry. And when they become [very] hungry, they will become very angry. They will look up [toward heaven] and curse God and [will also] curse their king.

22 Ana nehu'za mopafima kesnazana hazenke zamo'ene, atazamoke meni'geno korozamo zamazeri antrako hugahie. Ana hanigeno ana knazamo zamaretufeno hanizampi ome zamatregahie.

They will look around the land and see only trouble/distress and darkness and things that cause them to despair. And [then] they will be thrown into the very black darkness [of hell]. (questioned)
