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.
The Lord seith these thingis, What is this book of forsakyng of youre modir, bi which Y lefte her? ether who is he, to whom Y owe, to whom Y seeld you? For lo! ye ben seeld for youre wickidnessis, and for youre grete trespassis Y lefte youre modir.
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.
For Y cam, and no man was; Y clepide, and noon was that herde. Whether myn hond is abreggid, and maad litil, that Y mai not ayenbie? ether vertu is not in me for to delyuere? Lo! in my blamyng Y schal make the see forsakun, `ether desert, Y schal sette floodis in the drie place; fischis without watir schulen wexe rotun, and schulen dye for thirst.
3 Ninalivika anga weusi na kufanya nguo ya gunia kuwa kifuniko chake.”
Y schal clothe heuenes with derknessis, and Y schal sette a sak the hilyng of tho.
4 Bwana Mwenyezi amenipa ulimi uliofundishwa, ili kujua neno limtegemezalo aliyechoka. Huniamsha asubuhi kwa asubuhi, huamsha sikio langu lisikie kama mtu afundishwaye.
The Lord yaf to me a lerned tunge, that Y kunne susteyne hym bi word that failide; erli the fadir reisith, erli he reisith an eere to me, that Y here as a maister.
5 Bwana Mwenyezi amezibua masikio yangu, nami sikuwa mwasi, wala sikurudi nyuma.
The Lord God openede an eere to me; forsothe Y ayenseie not, Y yede not abak.
6 Niliwapa mgongo wangu wale wanipigao, mashavu yangu wale wangʼoao ndevu zangu; sikuuficha uso wangu kutokana na fedheha na kutemewa mate.
I yaf my bodi to smyteris, and my chekis to pulleris; Y turnede not a wei my face fro men blamynge, and spetynge on me.
7 Kwa sababu Bwana Mwenyezi ananisaidia, sitatahayarika. Kwa hiyo nimekaza uso wangu kama jiwe la gumegume, nami ninajua sitaaibika.
The Lord God is myn helpere, and therfor Y am not schent; therfor Y haue set my face as a stoon maad hard, and Y woot that Y schal not be schent.
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?
He is niy, that iustifieth me; who ayenseith me? stonde we togidere. Who is myn aduersarie? neiye he to me.
9 Ni Bwana Mwenyezi anisaidiaye mimi. Ni nani huyo atakayenihukumu? Wote watachakaa kama vazi, nondo watawala wawamalize.
Lo! the Lord God is myn helpere; who therfor is he that condempneth me? Lo! alle schulen be defoulid as a cloth, and a mouyte schal ete hem.
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 of you dredith the Lord, and herith the vois of his seruaunt? Who yede in dercnessis and liyt is not to hym, hope he in the name of the Lord, and triste he on his God.
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.
Lo! alle ye kyndlynge fier, and gird with flawmes, go in the liyt of youre fier, and in the flawmes whiche ye han kyndlid to you. This is maad of myn hond to you, ye schulen slepe in sorewis.
