Isaya 3
1 Tazama sasa, Bwana, Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote, yu karibu kuwaondolea Yerusalemu na Yuda upatikanaji wa mahitaji na misaada, upatikanaji wote wa chakula na tegemeo lote la maji,
For here! the lord Yahweh of hosts [is] about to remove from Jerusalem and from Judah support and support every support of food and every support of water.
2 shujaa na mtu wa vita, mwamuzi na nabii, mwaguzi na mzee,
Warrior and man of war judge and prophet and diviner and elder.
3 jemadari wa kikosi cha watu hamsini na mtu mwenye cheo, mshauri, fundi stadi na mlozi mjanja.
Commander of fifty and [one] uplifted of face and counselor and skillful [one] of magic arts and understanding [one] of charming.
4 Nitawafanya wavulana wawe maafisa wao, watoto ndio watakaowatawala.
And I will make youths leaders their and wantonness they will rule over them.
5 Watu wataoneana wao kwa wao: mtu dhidi ya mtu, na jirani dhidi ya jirani yake. Kijana atainuka dhidi ya mzee, mtu mnyonge dhidi ya mtu mwenye heshima.
And it will oppress the people each a person and each neighbor his they will act insolently the youth[s] in the old [person] and the lightly esteemed in the honored.
6 Mtu atamkamata mmoja wa ndugu zake katika nyumba ya baba yake na kusema, “Unalo joho, sasa uwe kiongozi wetu, tawala lundo hili la magofu!”
For he will seize each brother his [the] house of father his a cloak [belongs] to you a ruler you will be of us and the heap of ruins this [will be] under hand your.
7 Lakini siku hiyo atapiga kelele akisema, “Sina uponyaji. Sina chakula wala mavazi katika nyumba yangu, msinifanye niwe kiongozi wa watu.”
He will lift up in the day that - saying not I will be a wrapper and in house my there not [is] food and there not [is] a cloak not you must appoint me a ruler of [the] people.
8 Yerusalemu inapepesuka, Yuda inaanguka; maneno yao na matendo yao ni kinyume na Bwana, wakiudharau uwepo wake uliotukuka.
For it has stumbled Jerusalem and Judah it has fallen for tongue their and deeds their [are] against Yahweh to rebel toward [the] eyes of glory his.
9 Nyuso zao zinavyoonekana zinashuhudia dhidi yao, hujivunia dhambi yao kama Sodoma, wala hawaifichi. Ole wao! Wamejiletea maafa juu yao wenyewe.
[the] expression of Faces their it has testified against them and sin their like Sodom they have declared not they have hidden [it] woe! to self their for they have done to themselves harm.
10 Waambie wanyofu itakuwa heri kwao, kwa kuwa watafurahia tunda la matendo yao.
Tell [the] righteous that good for [the] fruit of deeds their they will eat.
11 Ole kwa watu waovu! Maafa yapo juu yao! Watalipwa kwa ajili ya yale mikono yao iliyotenda.
Woe! to [the] wicked it will be bad for [the] dealing of hands his it will be done to him.
12 Vijana wanawatesa watu wangu, wanawake wanawatawala. Enyi watu wangu, viongozi wenu wanawapotosha, wanawapoteza njia.
People my oppressors its [is] acting like children and women they have ruled over it O people my guides your [are] misleading and [the] way of paths your they have confused.
13 Bwana anachukua nafasi yake mahakamani, anasimama kuhukumu watu.
[is] taking his stand To conduct a case Yahweh and [is] standing to judge peoples.
14 Bwana anaingia katika hukumu dhidi ya wazee na viongozi wa watu wake: “Ninyi ndio mlioharibu shamba langu la mizabibu, mali zilizonyangʼanywa maskini zimo nyumbani mwenu.
Yahweh in judgment he will come with [the] elders of people his and leaders its and you you have consumed the vineyard [the] plunder of the poor [is] in houses your.
15 Mnamaanisha nini kuwaponda watu wangu na kuzisaga nyuso za maskini?” asema Bwana, Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote.
(What [is] to you? *Q(K)*) you crush people my and [the] faces of poor [people] you grind [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts.
16 Bwana asema, “Wanawake wa Sayuni wana kiburi, wanatembea na shingo ndefu, wakikonyeza kwa macho yao, wanatembea kwa hatua za madaha, wakiwa na mapambo ya njuga kwenye vifundo vya miguu yao.
And he said Yahweh because that they are haughty [the] daughters of Zion and they have walked (stretched out *Q(k)*) of neck and making seductive glances of eyes walking and mincing along they walk and on feet their they tinkle with anklets.
17 Kwa hiyo Bwana ataleta majipu kwenye vichwa vya wanawake wa Sayuni; Bwana atazifanya ngozi za vichwa vyao kuwa vipara.”
And he will make scabby [the] Lord scalp of [the] daughters of Zion and Yahweh forehead their he will lay bare.
18 Katika siku ile Bwana atawanyangʼanya uzuri wao: bangili, tepe za kichwani, mikufu yenye alama za mwezi mwandamo,
In the day that he will remove [the] Lord [the] splendor of the anklets and the amulets and the ornaments.
19 vipuli, vikuku, shela,
The pendants and the bracelets and the veils.
20 vilemba, mikufu ya vifundo vya miguu, mshipi, chupa za manukato na hirizi,
The head-dresses and the ankle chains and the sashes and [the] houses of the breath and the amulets.
21 pete zenye muhuri, pete za puani,
The signet-rings and [the] rings of the nose.
22 majoho mazuri, mitandio, mavazi, kifuko cha kutilia fedha,
The robes and the over-tunics and the cloaks and the purses.
23 vioo, mavazi ya kitani, taji na shali.
And the mirrors and the linen garments and the headdresses and the shawls.
24 Badala ya harufu ya manukato kutakuwa na uvundo; badala ya mishipi, ni kamba; badala ya nywele zilizotengenezwa vizuri, ni upara; badala ya mavazi mazuri, ni nguo za magunia; badala ya uzuri, ni alama ya aibu kwa chuma cha moto.
And it will be in place of perfume rottenness it will be and in place of a belt a rope and in place of a work well-set hair baldness and in place of a robe a girding of sackcloth branding in place of beauty.
25 Wanaume wako watauawa kwa upanga, nao mashujaa wako watauawa vitani.
Men your by the sword they will fall and strength your in battle.
26 Malango ya Sayuni yataomboleza na kulia, ataketi mavumbini akiwa fukara.
And they will lament and they will mourn gates its and it will be emptied to the ground it will sit.
