< Isaya 30 >
1 Bwana asema, “Ole kwa watoto wakaidi, kwa wale wanaotimiza mipango ambayo si yangu, wakifanya makubaliano, lakini si kwa Roho wangu, wakilundika dhambi juu ya dhambi,
Wo! sones forsakeris, seith the Lord, that ye schulden make a councel, and not of me; and weue a web, and not bi my spirit, that ye schulden encreesse synne on synne.
2 wale washukao kwenda Misri bila kutaka shauri langu, wanaotafuta msaada wa ulinzi wa Farao, watafutao kivuli cha Misri kwa ajili ya kimbilio.
Whiche goen, to go doun in to Egipt, and ye axiden not my mouth; ye hopynge help in the strengthe of Farao, and ye hauynge trist in the schadewe of Egipt.
3 Lakini ulinzi wa Farao utakuwa kwa aibu yenu, kivuli cha Misri kitawaletea fedheha.
And the strengthe of Farao schal be to you in to confusioun, and the trist of the schadewe of Egipt in to schenschipe.
4 Ingawa wana maafisa katika Soani na wajumbe wamewasili katika Hanesi,
For whi thi princes weren in Taphnys, and thi messangeris camen til to Anes.
5 kila mmoja ataaibishwa kwa sababu ya taifa lisilowafaa kitu, ambalo haliwaletei msaada wala faida, bali aibu tu na fedheha.”
Alle thei weren schent on the puple, that myyten not profite to hem; thei weren not in to help, and in to ony profit, but in to schame and schenschip.
6 Neno kuhusu wanyama wa Negebu: Katika nchi ya taabu na shida, ya simba za dume na jike, ya nyoka mwenye sumu kali na nyoka warukao, wajumbe huchukua utajiri wao juu ya migongo ya punda, hazina zao juu ya nundu za ngamia, kwa lile taifa lisilokuwa na faida,
The birthun of werk beestis of the south. In the lond of tribulacioun and of angwisch, a lionesse, and a lioun, of hem a serpent, and a cocatrice; thei weren berynge her richessis on the schuldris of werk beestis, and her tresours on the botche of camels, to a puple that myyte not profite to hem.
7 kuvipeleka Misri, ambaye msaada wake haufai kabisa. Kwa hiyo nimemwita “Rahabu Asiyefanya Chochote.”
For whi Egipt schal helpe in veyn, and idili. Therfor Y criede on this thing, It is pride oneli; ceesse thou.
8 Nenda sasa, liandike neno hili juu ya kibao kwa ajili yao, liandike kwenye kitabu, ili liweze kuwa shahidi milele kwa ajili ya siku zijazo.
Now therfor entre thou, and write to it on box, and write thou it diligentli in a book; and it schal be in the last dai in to witnessyng, til in to with outen ende.
9 Hawa ni watu waasi, watoto wadanganyifu, watoto ambao hawataki kusikiliza mafundisho ya Bwana.
For it is a puple terrynge to wrathfulnesse, and sones lieris, sones that nylen here the lawe of God.
10 Wanawaambia waonaji, “Msione maono tena!” Nako kwa manabii wanasema, “Msiendelee kutupatia maono ambayo ni ya kweli! Tuambieni mambo ya kupendeza, tabirini mambo ya uongo.
Whiche seien to profetis, Nyle ye prophesie; and to biholderis, Nyle ye biholde to vs tho thingis that ben riytful; speke ye thingis plesynge to vs, se ye errouris to vs.
11 Acheni njia hii, ondokeni katika mapito haya, nanyi acheni kutukabili pamoja na yeye Aliye Mtakatifu wa Israeli!”
Do ye awei fro me the weie, bowe ye awei fro me the path; the hooli of Israel ceesse fro oure face.
12 Kwa hiyo, hili ndilo asemalo yeye Aliye Mtakatifu wa Israeli: “Kwa sababu mmekataa ujumbe huu, mkategemea uonevu na kutumainia udanganyifu,
Therfor the hooli of Israel seith these thingis, For that that ye repreuiden this word, and hopiden on fals caleng, and on noise, and tristiden on it,
13 dhambi hii itakuwa kwenu kama ukuta mrefu, wenye ufa na wenye kubetuka, ambao unaanguka ghafula, mara moja.
therfor this wickidnesse schal be to you as a brekyng fallynge doun, and souyt in an hiy wal; for sudeynli while it is not hopid, the brekyng therof schal come.
14 Utavunjika vipande vipande kama chombo cha udongo ukipasuka pasipo huruma ambapo katika vipande vyake hakuna kipande kitakachopatikana kwa kuukulia makaa kutoka jikoni au kuchotea maji kisimani.”
And it schal be maad lesse, as a galoun of a pottere is brokun with ful strong brekyng; and a scherd schal not be foundun of the gobetis therof, in which scherd a litil fier schal be borun of brennyng, ethir a litil of watir schal be drawun of the diche.
15 Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi, yeye Aliye Mtakatifu wa Israeli, asemalo: “Katika kutubu na kupumzika ndio wokovu wenu, katika kutulia na kutumaini ndizo nguvu zenu, lakini hamkutaka.
For whi the Lord God, the hooli of Israel, seith these thingis, If ye turnen ayen, and resten, ye schulen be saaf; in stilnesse and in hope schal be youre strengthe. And ye nolden.
16 Mlisema, ‘Hapana, tutakimbia kwa farasi.’ Kwa hiyo mtakimbia! Mlisema, ‘Tutakimbia kwa farasi waendao kasi.’ Kwa hiyo wanaowafukuza watakwenda kasi!
And ye seiden, Nai, but we schulen fle to horsis; therfor ye schulen fle. And we schulen stie on swifte horsis; therfor thei schulen be swiftere, that schulen pursue you.
17 Watu 1,000 watakimbia kwa ajili ya kitisho cha mtu mmoja, kwa vitishio vya watu watano wote mtakimbia, hadi mtakapoachwa kama mlingoti wa bendera juu ya kilele cha mlima, kama bendera juu ya kilima.”
A thousynde men schulen fle fro the face of the drede of oon; and ye schulen fle fro the face of drede of fyue, til ye be left as the mast of a schip in the cop of a munteyn, and as a signe on a litil hil.
18 Hata hivyo Bwana anatamani kutupatia neema, anainuka ili kuwaonyesha huruma. Kwa kuwa Bwana ni Mungu wa haki. Wamebarikiwa wote wanaomngojea yeye!
Therfor the Lord abidith, that he haue mercy on you, and therfor he schal be enhaunsid sparynge you; for whi God is Lord of doom, blessid ben alle thei that abiden hym.
19 Enyi watu wa Sayuni, mnaoishi Yerusalemu, hamtalia tena. Tazameni jinsi atakavyokuwa na huruma mtakapolia kwa kumwomba msaada! Mara asikiapo, atawajibu.
Forsothe the puple of Sion schal dwelle in Jerusalem; thou wepynge schal not wepe, he doynge merci schal haue merci on thee; at the vois of thi cry, anoon as he herith, he schal answere to thee.
20 Ingawa Bwana huwapa chakula cha shida na maji ya taabu, walimu wenu hawatafichwa tena, kwa macho yenu wenyewe mtawaona.
And the Lord schal yyue to thee streyt breed, and schort watir, and schal no more make thi techere to fle awei fro thee; and thin iyen schulen be seynge thi comaundour,
21 Mkigeuka kuume au kushoto, masikio yenu yatasikia sauti nyuma yenu ikisema, “Hii ndiyo njia, ifuateni.”
and thin eeris schulen here a word bihynde the bak of hym that monestith; This is the weie, go ye therynne, nether to the riyt half nether to the left half.
22 Kisha mtanajisi sanamu zenu zilizofunikwa kwa fedha, na vinyago vyenu vilivyofunikwa kwa dhahabu. Mtazitupilia mbali kama vitambaa vya wakati wa hedhi na kuziambia, “Haya, tokeni hapa!”
And thou schalt defoule the platis of the grauun ymagis of thi siluer, and the cloth of the yotun ymage of thi gold; and thou schalt scatere tho, as the vnclennesse of a womman in vncleene blood; Go thou out, and thou schalt seie to it.
23 Pia atawapa mvua kwa ajili ya mbegu mnazootesha ardhini, chakula kinachotoka ardhini kitakuwa kizuri sana, tena tele. Katika siku ile, ngʼombe wenu watalisha katika shamba pana la majani.
And reyn schal be youun to thi seed, where euere thou schalt sowe in erthe, and the breed of fruytis of erthe schal be moost plenteuouse and fat; in that dai a lomb schal be fed largeli in thi possessioun.
24 Maksai na punda walimao watakula majani makavu na vyakula vilivyotengenezwa, vinavyotandazwa kwa uma na sepeto.
And thi bolis and coltis of assis, that worchen the lond, schulen ete barli with chaf meynd togidere, as it is wyndewid in the cornfloor.
25 Katika siku ile ya mauaji makuu, wakati minara itakapoanguka, vijito vya maji vitatiririka juu ya kila mlima mrefu na kila kilima kilichoinuka sana.
And strondis of rennynge watris schulen be on ech hiy munteyn, and on ech litil hil reisid, in the dai of sleyng of many men, whanne touris fallen doun.
26 Mwezi utaangaza kama jua, nao mwanga wa jua utangʼaa mara saba zaidi, kama nuru ya siku saba, wakati Bwana atakapoyafunga majeraha ya watu wake na kuwaponya vidonda alivyowatia.
And the liyt of the moone schal be as the liyt of the sunne, and the liyt of the sunne schal be seuenfold, as the liyt of seuene daies, in the dai in which the Lord schal bynde togidere the wounde of his puple, and schal make hool the smytynge of the wounde therof.
27 Tazama, Jina la Bwana linakuja kutoka mbali, likiwa na hasira kali inayowaka pamoja na wingu zito la moshi, midomo yake imejaa ghadhabu na ulimi wake ni moto ulao.
Lo! the name of the Lord cometh doun fro fer; his strong veniaunce is brennynge and greuouse to bere; hise lippis ben fillid of indignacioun, and his tunge is as fier deuouringe.
28 Pumzi yake ni kama mkondo wa maji yaendayo kasi, yakipanda hadi shingoni. Hutikisa mataifa katika chekecheke ya uharibifu, huweka lijamu katika mataya ya mataifa ambayo huwaongoza upotevuni.
His spirit is as a stef streem, flowynge `til to the myddis of the necke, to leese folkis in to nouyt, and the bridil of errour, that was in the chekis of puplis.
29 Nanyi mtaimba kama usiku ule mnaadhimisha sikukuu takatifu. Mioyo yenu itashangilia kama vile watu wanapokwea na filimbi kwenye mlima wa Bwana, kwa Mwamba wa Israeli.
Song schal be to you, as the vois of an halewid solempnyte; and gladnesse of herte, as he that goth with a pipe, for to entre in to the hil of the Lord, to the stronge of Israel.
30 Bwana atawasababisha watu waisikie sauti yake ya utukufu, naye atawafanya wauone mkono wake ukishuka pamoja na hasira yake kali na moto ulao, kukiwa na tufani ya mvua, ngurumo za radi na mvua ya mawe.
And the Lord schal make herd the glorie of his vois, and he schal schewe the ferdfulnesse of his arm in manassyng of strong veniaunce, and in flawme of fier brennynge; he schal hurtle doun in whirlewynd, and in stoon of hail.
31 Sauti ya Bwana itaivunjavunja Ashuru, kwa fimbo yake ya utawala atawapiga.
For whi Assur smytun with a yerde schal drede of the vois of the Lord;
32 Kila pigo Bwana atakaloliweka juu yao kwa fimbo yake ya kuadhibu, litakuwa kwa wimbo wa matari na vinubi, anapopigana nao katika vita kwa mapigo ya mkono wake.
and the passyng of the yerd schal be foundid, which yerde the Lord schal make for to reste on hym. In tympans, and harpis, and in souereyn batels he schal ouercome hem.
33 Tofethi imeandaliwa toka zamani, imewekwa tayari kwa ajili ya mfalme. Shimo lake la moto limetengenezwa kwa kina kirefu na kwa upana mkubwa, likiwa na moto na kuni tele; pumzi ya Bwana, kama kijito cha kiberiti, huuwasha moto.
For whi Tophet, that is, helle, deep and alargid, is maad redi of the kyng fro yistirdai; the nurschyngis therof ben fier and many trees; the blast of the Lord as a streem of brymstoon kyndlith it.
