Isaya 47

1 Njoo chini na ukae kwenye mavumbi, binti bikira wa Babeli; kaa juu ya aridhi pasipo enzi, ewe binti wa Wakaldayo. Hautaitwa tena mpenda anasa na maisha ya anasa.

to go down and to dwell upon dust virgin daughter Babylon to dwell to/for land: soil nothing throne daughter Chaldea for not to add: again to call: call by to/for you tender and dainty

2 Chukua jiwe la kusagia na usage unga; ondoa pazia lako, ondoa mavazi yako, ondoa viatu miguuni, na vuka mkondo wa maji.

to take: take millstone and to grind flour to reveal: uncover veil your to strip skirt to reveal: uncover leg to pass river

3 Uchi wako utafunuliwa, ndio, na aibu yako itaonekana; Nitachukua kizazi na sitamuacha mtu,

to reveal: uncover nakedness your also to see: see reproach your vengeance to take: take and not to fall on man

4 Mkombozi, Yahwe wa majeshi ndilo jina lake, Mtakatifu wa Israeli.

to redeem: redeem our LORD Hosts name his holy Israel

5 Kaa kimya na nenda katika giza, ewe binti wa Wakaldoyo; maana hautaitwa tena malikia wa falme.

to dwell silence and to come (in): come in/on/with darkness daughter Chaldea for not to add: again to call: call by to/for you lady kingdom

6 Nilikuwa na hasira na watu wangu; Nimeunajisi urithi wangu na kuwakabidhi nyie katika mkono wenu, lakini hamkuomyesha huruma; umeweka nira kubwa kwa wazee.

be angry upon people my to profane/begin: profane inheritance my and to give: give them in/on/with hand: power your not to set: make to/for them compassion upon old to honor: heavy yoke your much

7 Umesema, ''Nitaongoza daima kama malikia huru.'' Haukuvichukua vitu hivi katika moyo, wala hakutafakari jinsi hivi vitu vitakavyojeuka.

and to say to/for forever: enduring to be lady till not to set: put these upon heart your not to remember end her

8 Hivyo sasa sikiliza hili, Ewe upendae anasa na kukaa salama; ewe usemae katika moyo wako, 'Ninaishi, na hakuna mwingine kama mimi; Sitakaa kama mjane wala sitazoea kufiwa na watoto.

and now to hear: hear this voluptuous [the] to dwell to/for security [the] to say in/on/with heart her I and end I still not to dwell widow and not to know bereavement

9 ''Lakini vitu hivi vitakuja kwako siku moja katika kipindi cha siku moja; kwa nguvu za kutosha yatakuja kwako, japo uchawi wako na dua zako na hirizi.

and to come (in): come to/for you two these moment in/on/with day one bereavement and widower like/as integrity their to come (in): come upon you in/on/with abundance sorcery your in/on/with strength spell your much

10 Umeweka imani katika mapungufu yako; na kusema, ''Hakuna anayeniona mimi''; hekima na maarifa yako yanakupoteza, lakini unasema katika moyo wako, ''Nipo na hakuna hata mmoja kama mimi.''

and to trust in/on/with distress: evil your to say nothing to see: see me wisdom your and knowledge your he/she/it to return: turn back you and to say in/on/with heart your I and end I still

11 Maafa yatakuzidi wewe; hautaweza kuyaondoa kwa dua zako mwenyewe. Uharibifu utakuwa juu yako; hautaweza kuukata. Maafa yatakuangamiza ghafla, kabla haujajua kitu.

and to come (in): come upon you distress: evil not to know dawn her and to fall: fall upon you misfortune not be able to atone her and to come (in): come upon you suddenly devastation not to know

12 Endeleni kutoa uganga wako na wachawi wengi ambao mlioaminishwa kusoma toka utotoni mwao; labda utafanikiwa, labda utayashinda maafa.

to stand: stand please in/on/with spell your and in/on/with abundance sorcery your in/on/with in which be weary/toil from youth your perhaps be able to gain perhaps to tremble

13 Umejaribu sana kwa kushauriwa sana; waache hao watu wasimame na kukuokoa wewe- wale wanaoangalia mbingu na wanoangalia nyota, wale wanotangaza mwenzi mpya- waache wawaokoe nyie kutoka kwenye yaliyowapata.

be weary in/on/with abundance counsel your to stand: stand please and to save you (to divide *Q(K)*) heaven [the] to see in/on/with star to know to/for month: new moon from whence to come (in): come upon you

14 Tazama, watakuwa kama mabua. Moto utayachoma juu. Hayataweza kujisaidia yenyewe kutoka kwenye mkono wa moto. Hakuna makaa kuwapa joto wao na hakuna moto uliowekwa pembeni kwa ajili yao!

behold to be like/as stubble fire to burn them not to rescue [obj] soul: myself their from hand: power flame nothing coal to/for to warm them flame to/for to dwell before him

15 Hivi ndio wamekuwa kwako, wale unaofanya nao kazi, na unauza na kununua na wao toka ulipo kuwa mdogo, na wale wanaendelea kufanya mambo yao ya kijinga; na unapolia kuhitaji msaada, hakuna hata mmjoa ambaye atakukomboa wewe.''

so to be to/for you which be weary/toil to trade your from youth your man: anyone to/for side: beyond his to go astray nothing to save you
