Isaya 56
1 Hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “Dumisheni haki na mkatende lile lililo sawa, kwa maana wokovu wangu u karibu na haki yangu itafunuliwa upesi.
The Lord seith these thingis, Kepe ye doom, and do ye riytfulnesse, for whi myn helthe is niy, that it come, and my riytfulnesse, that it be schewid.
2 Amebarikiwa mtu yule atendaye hili, mtu yule alishikaye kwa uthabiti, yeye ashikaye Sabato bila kuinajisi, auzuiaye mkono wake usifanye uovu wowote.”
Blessid is the man, that doith this, and the sone of man, that schal take this; kepynge the sabat, that he defoule not it, kepynge hise hondis, that he do not ony yuel.
3 Usimwache mgeni aambatanaye na Bwana aseme, “Hakika Bwana atanitenga na watu wake.” Usimwache towashi yeyote alalamike akisema, “Mimi ni mti mkavu tu.”
And seie not the sone of a comelyng, that cleueth faste to the Lord, seiynge, Bi departyng the Lord schal departe me fro his puple; and a geldyng, ether a chast man, seie not, Lo! Y am a drie tree.
4 Kwa kuwa hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “Kwa matowashi washikao Sabato zangu, ambao huchagua kile kinachonipendeza na kulishika sana agano langu:
For the Lord seith these thingis to geldingis, that kepen my sabatis, and chesen what thingis Y wolde, and holden my boond of pees.
5 hao nitawapa ndani ya Hekalu langu na kuta zake kumbukumbu na jina bora kuliko kuwa na watoto wa kiume na wa kike: nitawapa jina lidumulo milele, ambalo halitakatiliwa mbali.
Y schal yyue to hem a place in myn hous, and in my wallis, and the beste name of sones and douytris; Y schal yyue to hem a name euerlastynge, that schal not perische.
6 Wageni wanaoambatana na Bwana ili kumtumikia, kulipenda jina la Bwana, na kumwabudu yeye, wote washikao Sabato bila kuinajisi na ambao hushika sana agano langu:
And Y schal brynge in to blis the sones of a comelyng, that cleuen faste to the Lord, that thei worschipe hym, and loue his name, that thei be to hym in to seruauntis; ech man kepynge the sabat, that he defoule it not, and holdynge my boond of pees;
7 hawa nitawaleta kwenye mlima wangu mtakatifu na kuwapa furaha ndani ya nyumba yangu ya sala. Sadaka zao za kuteketeza na dhabihu zao zitakubalika juu ya madhabahu yangu; kwa maana nyumba yangu itaitwa nyumba ya sala kwa mataifa yote.”
Y schal brynge hem in to myn hooli hil, and Y schal make hem glad in the hous of my preier; her brent sacrifices and her slayn sacrifices schulen plese me on my auter; for whi myn hous schal be clepid an hous of preier to alle puplis,
8 Bwana Mwenyezi asema, yeye awakusanyaye Waisraeli waliohamishwa: “Bado nitawakusanya wengine kwao zaidi ya hao ambao wamekusanywa tayari.”
seith the Lord God, that gaderith togidere the scaterid men of Israel. Yit Y schal gadere togidere to hym alle the gaderid men therof.
9 Njooni, enyi wanyama wote wa kondeni, njooni mle, ninyi wanyama wote wa mwituni!
Alle beestis of the feeld, come ye to deuoure, alle beestis of the forest.
10 Walinzi wa Israeli ni vipofu, wote wamepungukiwa na maarifa; wote ni mbwa walio bubu, hawawezi kubweka; hulala na kuota ndoto, hupenda kulala.
Alle the biholderis therof ben blinde, alle thei knewen not; doumbe doggis, that moun not berke, seynge veyn thingis, slepynge, and louynge dremes;
11 Ni mbwa wenye tamaa kubwa, kamwe hawatosheki. Wao ni wachungaji waliopungukiwa na ufahamu; wote wamegeukia njia yao wenyewe, kila mmoja hutafuta faida yake mwenyewe.
and moost vnschamefast doggis knewen not fulnesse. Tho scheepherdis knewen not vndurstondyng; alle thei bowyden in to her weie, ech man to his aueryce, fro the hiyeste `til to the laste.
12 Kila mmoja hulia, “Njooni, tupate mvinyo! Tunywe kileo sana! Kesho itakuwa kama leo, au hata bora zaidi.”
Come ye, take we wyn, and be we fillid of drunkenesse; and it schal be as to dai, so and to morewe, and myche more.
