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 lo! the lordli gouernour, the Lord of oostis, schal take awei fro Jerusalem and fro Juda a myyti man, and strong, and al the strengthe of breed, and al the strengthe of watir;
2 shujaa na mtu wa vita, mwamuzi na nabii, mwaguzi na mzee,
a strong man, and a man a werriour, and a domesman, and a profete, and a false dyuynour in auteris, and an elde man,
3 jemadari wa kikosi cha watu hamsini na mtu mwenye cheo, mshauri, fundi stadi na mlozi mjanja.
a prince ouer fifti men, and a worschipful man in cheer, and a counselour, and a wijs man of principal crafti men, and a prudent man of mystik, ethir goostli, speche.
4 Nitawafanya wavulana wawe maafisa wao, watoto ndio watakaowatawala.
And Y schal yyue children the princes of hem, and men of wymmens condiciouns schulen be lordis of hem.
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 the puple schal falle doun, a man to a man, ech man to his neiybore; a child schal make noyse ayens an eld man, and an vnnoble man ayens a noble man.
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 a man schal take his brother, the meneal of his fadir, and schal seie, A clooth is to thee, be thou oure prince; forsothe this fallyng be vndur thin hond.
7 Lakini siku hiyo atapiga kelele akisema, “Sina uponyaji. Sina chakula wala mavazi katika nyumba yangu, msinifanye niwe kiongozi wa watu.”
And he schal answere in that dai, and seie, Y am no leche, and nether breed, nether cloth is in myn hous; nyle ye make me prince of the puple.
8 Yerusalemu inapepesuka, Yuda inaanguka; maneno yao na matendo yao ni kinyume na Bwana, wakiudharau uwepo wake uliotukuka.
For whi Jerusalem felle doun, and Juda felle doun togidere; for the tunge of hem, and the fyndingis of hem weren ayens the Lord, for to terre to wraththe the iyen of his mageste.
9 Nyuso zao zinavyoonekana zinashuhudia dhidi yao, hujivunia dhambi yao kama Sodoma, wala hawaifichi. Ole wao! Wamejiletea maafa juu yao wenyewe.
The knowyng of her cheer schal answere to hem; and thei prechiden her synne, as Sodom dide, and hidden not. Wo to the soule of hem, for whi yuels ben yoldun to hem.
10 Waambie wanyofu itakuwa heri kwao, kwa kuwa watafurahia tunda la matendo yao.
Seie ye to the iust man, that it schal be to hym wel; for he schal ete the fruyt of hise fyndyngis.
11 Ole kwa watu waovu! Maafa yapo juu yao! Watalipwa kwa ajili ya yale mikono yao iliyotenda.
Wo to the wickid man in to yuel; for whi the yeldyng of hise hondis schal be maad to hym.
12 Vijana wanawatesa watu wangu, wanawake wanawatawala. Enyi watu wangu, viongozi wenu wanawapotosha, wanawapoteza njia.
The wrongful axeris of my puple robbiden it, and wymmen weren lordis therof. Mi puple, thei that seien thee blessid, disseyuen thee, and distrien the weie of thi steppis.
13 Bwana anachukua nafasi yake mahakamani, anasimama kuhukumu watu.
The Lord stondith for to deme, and `the Lord stondith for to deme puplis;
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.
the Lord schal come to doom, with the eldere men of his puple, and with hise princes; for ye han wastid my vyner, and the raueyn of a pore man is in youre hous.
15 Mnamaanisha nini kuwaponda watu wangu na kuzisaga nyuso za maskini?” asema Bwana, Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote.
Whi al to-breken ye my puple, and grynden togidere the faces of pore men? seith the Lord God of oostis.
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 the Lord God seide, For that that the douytris of Syon weren reisid, and yeden with a necke stretchid forth, and yeden bi signes of iyen, and flappiden with hondis, and yeden, and with her feet yeden in wel araied goyng,
17 Kwa hiyo Bwana ataleta majipu kwenye vichwa vya wanawake wa Sayuni; Bwana atazifanya ngozi za vichwa vyao kuwa vipara.”
the Lord schal make ballyd the nol of the douytris of Sion, and the Lord schal make nakid the heer of hem.
18 Katika siku ile Bwana atawanyangʼanya uzuri wao: bangili, tepe za kichwani, mikufu yenye alama za mwezi mwandamo,
In that dai the Lord schal take awei the ournement of schoon, and goldun litle bellis lijk the moone,
19 vipuli, vikuku, shela,
and ribans, and brochis, and ournementis of armes nyy the schuldris, and mytris, ether chapelettis,
20 vilemba, mikufu ya vifundo vya miguu, mshipi, chupa za manukato na hirizi,
and coombis, and ournementis of armes niy the hondis, and goldun ourenementis lijk laumpreis, and litil vessels of oynementis,
21 pete zenye muhuri, pete za puani,
and eere ryngis, and ryngis, and preciouse stoonys hangynge in the forheed,
22 majoho mazuri, mitandio, mavazi, kifuko cha kutilia fedha,
and chaungynge clothis, and mentils, and schetis, ether smockis, and needlis,
23 vioo, mavazi ya kitani, taji na shali.
and myrouris, and smal lynun clothis aboute the schuldris, and kercheues, and roketis.
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 stynk shal be for swete odour, and a corde for the girdil; ballidnesse schal be for crispe heer, and an heire for a brest girdil.
25 Wanaume wako watauawa kwa upanga, nao mashujaa wako watauawa vitani.
Also thi faireste men schulen falle bi swerd, and thi stronge men schulen falle in batel.
26 Malango ya Sayuni yataomboleza na kulia, ataketi mavumbini akiwa fukara.
And the yatis therof schulen weile, and morene; and it schal sitte desolat in erthe.
