< U-Isaya 48 >
1 Zwanini lokhu, lina ndlu kaJakobe, elabizwa ngebizo likaIsrayeli, elaphuma emanzini akoJuda, elifunga ngebizo leNkosi, elikhumbuza ngoNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, kodwa kungeyisikho ngeqiniso, njalo kungeyisikho ngokulunga.
“Winjuru ma, yaye un joka Jakobo, miluongo ni jo-Israel kendo ma koth Juda, un ma ukwongʼoru gi nying Jehova Nyasaye kendo un muluongo nying Nyasach Israel, to ok e yo madiera kata makare;
2 Ngoba bazibiza ngokuthi bangabomuzi oyingcwele, beseyama kuNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli; iNkosi yamabandla libizo lakhe.
un muluongoru ni weg dala maduongʼ maler kendo moketo genogi kuom Nyasach Israel, Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, e nyinge:
3 Ngamemezela izinto zamandulo kwasekuqaleni, zaphuma emlonyeni wami, ngazizwakalisa; ngenza masinyane, zafika.
Ne akoro chon gik makoro osetimoregi, dhoga nohulogi mi namiyo gingʼere; bangʼe ne akelogi piyo magitimore.
4 Ngoba ngangisazi ukuthi ulukhuni, lentamo yakho ingumsipha wensimbi, lebunzi lakho lilithusi;
Nimar nangʼeyo wich tekou; ka leche mag ngʼutu ochungʼ, kendo pat wengeu tek ka nyinyo.
5 ngitsho kwasekuqaleni ngamemezela kuwe, kungakenzakali ngakwenza wakuzwa, hlezi uthi: Isithombe sami sizenzile, lesithombe sami esibaziweyo, lesithombe sami esibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa sikulayile.
Kuom mano, ne anyisou magi duto chon, kapok negitimore, to ne asewachonugi, mondo omi kik uwach niya, ‘Nyisechena manono ema otimo magi; kido mopa mara kod nyasacha mar mula ema oselerona ma?’
6 Usuzwile, khangela konke lokhu; njalo kaliyikukumemezela yini? Ngikwenze uzwe izinto ezintsha kusukela khathesi, lezinto ezifihlakeleyo obungazazi.
Isewinjo wechegi, rang-gi ane duto. Donge ibiro yie kodgi? “Kochakore sani abiro nyisi gik manyien, gik mopondo mapok ingʼeyo.
7 Zidalwe khathesi, kungeyisikho ekuqaleni; ngitsho lungakafiki lolusuku ungakezwa ngazo, hlezi uthi: Khangela, bengizazi.
Gin gik mochwe sani, kendo mapok obudho; bende gin gik mapok iwinjo nyaka chil kawuono. Omiyo ok inyal wacho ni, ‘Ee, ne angʼeyogi.’
8 Yebo, kawuzwanga; yebo, kawazanga; yebo, kusukela ngalesosikhathi indlebe yakho yayingavulekanga; ngoba bengisazi ukuthi uzakwenza lokwenza ngenkohliso, wabizwa ngokuthi uyisiphambuki kusukela esizalweni.
Chutho ok osewinjo kata mana ngʼeyo, nimar nyaka aa chon itu ne pok oyaw. To bende angʼeyo ni un gi mwandu kendo un oganda ma jopiem nyaka aa nywolu.
9 Ngenxa yebizo lami ngizaphuzisa ulaka lwami, langenxa yodumo lwami ngizibambe ngawe, ukuze ngingakuqumi.
Agengʼo mirimba nikech nyinga awuon; kendo ahora mondo arit pakna, mondo omi kik atieku.
10 Khangela, ngikuhlolile, kodwa hatshi ngesiliva, ngikukhethile esithandweni senhlupheko.
Asepwodhou, to ok kaka ipwodho fedha, kendo asetemou gi masira mager ka mach.
11 Ngenxa yami, ngenxa yami ngiyakwenza; ngoba ibizo lami lingangcoliswa njani? Njalo kangiyikunika udumo lwami komunye.
Asetimo kamano kuom rito nyinga, mana kuom rito nyinga awuon, emomiyo asetimo ma. Ere kaka dayie mondo nyinga oyany? Ok ayie mondo duongʼ ma imiya, omi ngʼato machielo.”
12 Ngilalela, Jakobe, lawe Israyeli obiziweyo wami: Nginguye; ngingowokuqala, njalo ngingowokucina.
“Winjauru, yaye joka Jakobo in Israel ma aseluongo: An e en; an ema okwongo kendo an ema ogik.
13 Isandla sami laso sabeka isisekelo somhlaba, lesandla sami sokunene sendlale amazulu; lapho ngikubiza, kuyasukuma kanyekanye.
Lweta owuon ema ne oketo mise mar piny kendo lweta ma korachwich ema ne oyaro polo, ka aluongogi to giwuok kadiemo wangʼ.
14 Buthanani lina lonke, lizwe; ngubani phakathi kwabo omemezele lezizinto? INkosi imthandile; izakwenza intando yayo eBhabhiloni, lengalo yayo izakuba phezu kwamaKhaladiya.
“Chokreuru un duto mondo uwinji: Ere kata achiel kuom nyiseche manono mosehulo gima biro timore? Oganda ma osiep Jehova Nyasaye ema nokel kum mare kuom Babulon; mirimbe nobed kuom jo-Babulon.
15 Mina uqobo ngikhulumile; yebo ngambiza, ngimlethile, njalo uzaphumelelisa indlela yakhe.
An, kendo en An adier, ema asewacho kamano; ee, an ema aseluonge. Abiro kele, kendo enobed gi loch kuom gik mochano timo.
16 Sondelani kimi, lizwe lokhu; kangikhulumanga ensitha kusukela ekuqaleni; kusukela kulesosikhathi kusenzeka, ngikhona. Khathesi-ke iNkosi uJehova kanye loMoya wayo ingithumile.
“Sud machiegni koda mondo iwinj wachni: “Pok apandonu gimoro nyaka ne achak wuoyo kodu; kendo e kinde mane magi timore, ne antie.” To koro Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto oseora, gi Roho mare.
17 Itsho njalo iNkosi, uMhlengi wakho, oNgcwele kaIsrayeli: NgiyiNkosi, uNkulunkulu wakho, ekufundisa okukusizayo, ekukhokhela ngendlela ofanele ukuthi uhambe ngayo.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye, ma Jaresni, Ngʼat Maler mar Israel wacho: “An e Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasachi, mapuonji gima owinjore kodi kendo manyisi yo monego iluw.
18 Kungathi ngabe walalela imilayo yami! Khona ukuthula kwakho kwakuzakuba njengomfula, lokulunga kwakho njengamagagasi olwandle.
Ka dine bed ni irito chikena, kwe mari domol mana ka aora, kendo timni makare digingre mana ka apaka mar nam.
19 Inzalo yakho layo yayizakuba njengetshebetshebe, lembewu yemibilini yakho njengezinhlamvu zalo; ibizo lawo belingayikuqunywa kumbe lichithwe lisuke phambi kwami.
Nyikwayi dine obedo mana ka kwoyo, to nyithindi dobedo mangʼeny mokalo akwana; nying-gi ok nongʼad oko kendo ok noruch e wangʼa.”
20 Phumani eBhabhiloni, libalekele amaKhaladiya, limemeze ngelizwi lokuhlabelela, likuzwakalise, likuphumisele ngasemkhawulweni womhlaba, lithi: INkosi ihlengile inceku yayo uJakobe.
Wuoguru Babulon, ringuru ua ir jo-Babulon! Landuru wachni kendo unyis ji duto ka ugoyo koko gimor. Landuru wachni e tungʼ piny niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osereso jotichne ma joka Jakobo.”
21 Njalo kabomanga lapho ibakhokhela bedabula izinkangala; yenza amanzi abagelezela evela edwaleni, futhi yaqhekeza idwala, lamanzi ampompoza.
Kane otelonegi e thim, to riyo ne ok oloyogi; ee, nomiyo pi owuoknegi e lwanda ka bubni kane obaro lwanda.
22 Akulakuthula, itsho INkosi, kwabakhohlakeleyo.
Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “Jaricho to onge gi kwe.”
