Isaya 50

1 Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “Iko wapi hati ya talaka ya mama yako ambayo kwayo niliachana naye? Au nimewauza ninyi kwa nani miongoni mwa watu wanaonidai? Kwa ajili ya dhambi zenu mliuzwa, kwa sababu ya makosa, mama yenu aliachwa.

Thus - he says Yahweh where? this [is] [the] document of [the] divorce of mother your which I sent away her or who? [is one] of creditors my whom I sold you to him here! for iniquities your you were sold and for transgressions your she was sent away mother your.

2 Nilipokuja, kwa nini hakuwepo hata mmoja? Nilipoita, kwa nini hakuwepo hata mmoja wa kujibu? Je, mkono wangu ni mfupi mno hata nisiweze kuwakomboa? Je, mimi sina nguvu za kukuokoa? Kwa kukemea tu naikausha bahari, naigeuza mito ya maji kuwa jangwa; samaki wake wanaoza kwa kukosa maji na kufa kwa ajili ya kiu.

Why? did I come and there not [was] anyone did I call? and there not [was one who] answered ¿ really was it [too] short hand my for ransom and or? [was] there not in me strength to deliver here! by rebuke my I dry up [the] sea I make rivers a wilderness it will stink fish their from not water and it will die by thirst.

3 Ninalivika anga weusi na kufanya nguo ya gunia kuwa kifuniko chake.”

I clothe [the] heavens darkness and sackcloth I make covering their.

4 Bwana Mwenyezi amenipa ulimi uliofundishwa, ili kujua neno limtegemezalo aliyechoka. Huniamsha asubuhi kwa asubuhi, huamsha sikio langu lisikie kama mtu afundishwaye.

[the] Lord Yahweh he has given to me a tongue of disciples to know to help [the] weary a word he awakens - in the morning in the morning he awakens of me ear to hear like disciples.

5 Bwana Mwenyezi amezibua masikio yangu, nami sikuwa mwasi, wala sikurudi nyuma.

[the] Lord Yahweh he has opened of me ear and I not I have been rebellious backwards not I have turned back.

6 Niliwapa mgongo wangu wale wanipigao, mashavu yangu wale wangʼoao ndevu zangu; sikuuficha uso wangu kutokana na fedheha na kutemewa mate.

Back my I gave to [those who] struck [it] and cheeks my to [those who] made [them] bare face my not I hid from insults and spittle.

7 Kwa sababu Bwana Mwenyezi ananisaidia, sitatahayarika. Kwa hiyo nimekaza uso wangu kama jiwe la gumegume, nami ninajua sitaaibika.

And [the] Lord Yahweh he helps me there-fore not I have been humiliated there-fore I have made face my like flint and I have perceived that not I will be put to shame.

8 Yeye anipatiaye haki yangu yu karibu. Ni nani basi atakayeleta mashtaka dhidi yangu? Tukabiliane uso kwa uso! Mshtaki wangu ni nani? Ni nani aliye mshtaki wangu?

[is] near [the one who] justifies Me who? will he contend with me let us stand together who? [is] [the] master of case my let him draw near to me.

9 Ni Bwana Mwenyezi anisaidiaye mimi. Ni nani huyo atakayenihukumu? Wote watachakaa kama vazi, nondo watawala wawamalize.

Here! [the] Lord Yahweh he helps me who? he will he condemn as guilty me there! all of them like garment they will wear out moth it will eat them.

10 Ni nani miongoni mwenu amchaye Bwana, na kulitii neno la mtumishi wake? Yeye atembeaye gizani, yeye asiye na nuru, na alitumainie jina la Bwana, na amtegemee Mungu wake.

Who? among you [is] fearing Yahweh [is] listening to [the] voice of servant his [the one] who - he has walked darkness and not brightness [belongs] to him let him trust in [the] name of Yahweh and let him depend on God his.

11 Lakini sasa, ninyi nyote mnaowasha mioto, na kupeana mienge iwakayo ninyi kwa ninyi, nendeni, tembeeni katika nuru ya moto wenu na ya mienge mliyoiwasha. Hili ndilo mtakalolipokea kutoka mkononi mwangu: Mtalala chini kwa mateso makali.

Here! O all of you [who] kindle a fire [who] gird on firebrands walk - by [the] light of fire your and with [the] firebrands [which] you have kindled from hand my it will belong this to you to pain you will lie down!
