Isaya 59
1 Tazama, mkono wa Yahwe sio mfupi ambao hautweza kukuokoa wewe; wala sikio lake sio zito, ambalo haliwezi kusikia.
Lo! the hoond of the Lord is not abreggid, that he mai not saue, nether his eere is maad hard, that he here not;
2 Matendo yako ya dhambi, hata hivyo, zimekutenga wewe na Mungu, na dhambi zenu zimemfanya aufiche uso wake msimuone wala kumsikia yeye.
but youre wickidnessis han departid bitwixe you and youre God, and youre synnes han hid his face fro you, that he schulde not here.
3 Maana mikono yenu ina madoa ya damu na vidole vyenu vimejaa dhambi. Midomo yenu inazungumza uongo na ulimi wenu unazungumza kwa nia mbaya.
For whi youre hondis ben defoulid with blood, and youre fyngris with wickidnesse; youre lippis spaken leesyng, and youre tunge spekith wickidnesse.
4 Hakuna hata mmoja aitae haki, na hakuna anayewasihi kesi yake katika haki. Wanayamini maneno yasiyo ya haki, maneno ya uongo; wanashika matatizo na kuzaa dhambi.
Noon is, that clepith riytfulnesse to help, and noon is, that demeth verili; but thei tristen in nouyt, and speken vanytees; thei conseyueden trauel, and childiden wickidnesse.
5 Wanetotoa mayai ya nyoka wenye sumu na hufuma mtandao wa buibui. Yeyote alaye mayai yake atakufa, na ikiwa yai litavunjika, litatotoa nyoka mwenye sumu.
Thei han broke eiren of snakis, and maden webbis of an yreyn; he that etith of the eiren of hem, schal die, and that that is nurschid, ether brouyt forth, schal breke out in to a cocatrice.
6 Mitando yao haitatumika kama mavazi, wala hawawezi kujifukia wenyewe kwa kazi yao. Kazi zao ni kazi za dhambi, na matendo ya vurugu yako mikononi mwao.
The webbis of hem schulen not be in to cloth, nethir thei schulen be hilid with her werkis; the werkis of hem ben vnprofitable werkis, and the werk of wickidnesse is in the hondis of hem.
7 Miguu yao inakimbilia uovu, na wanakimbilia kumwaga damu isiyo na hatia. Mawazo yao ni mawazo ya dhambi; vurugu na uharibifu ndio njia yao.
The feet of hem rennen to yuel, and haasten to schede out innocent blood; the thouytis of hem ben vnprofitable thouytis; distriyng and defouling ben in the weies of hem.
8 Njia ya amani hawaijuyui, na hakuna haki katika njia zao. Wametengeneza njia njia zlizopotoka; yeyote atakaye safiri kupitia njia hizi njia hizi hazijui amani.
Thei knewen not the weie of pees, and doom is not in the goyngis of hem; the pathis of hem ben bowid to hem; ech that tredith in tho, knowith not pees.
9 Hivyo basi haki iko mbali a sisi, wala haki haijatufikia sisi. Tunasubiri mwanga tunaona giza; tunatafuta mwangaza, lakini tunatembea gizani. Tunapapasa kwenywe ukuta kama kipofu, kama wale wasiona,
Therfor doom is made fer fro vs, and riytfulnesse schal not take vs; we abididen liyt, and lo! derknessis ben; we abididen schynyng, and we yeden in derknessis.
10 Tuna mashaka mchana kweupe kama kwenye mwanga unaofifia; miongoni mwa wenye nguvu tuko kama watu waliokufa.
We gropiden as blynde men the wal, and we as with outen iyen touchiden; we stumbliden in myddai, as in derknessis, in derk places, as deed men.
11 Sisi tunaunguruma kama dubu na kuomboleza kama njiwa; tunasubiria haki, lakini hakuna kitu; kwa ukombozi, lakini uko mbali na sisi.
Alle we schulen rore as beeris, and we schulen weile thenkynge as culueris; we abididen doom, and noon is; we abididen helthe, and it is maad fer fro vs.
12 Maana makosa yetu mengi yako mbele zako, na dhambi zetu zinatushuhudia sisi; maana makosa yako pamoja na sisi.
For whi oure wickidnessis ben multiplied bifore thee, and oure synnes answeriden to vs; for our grete trespassis ben with vs, and we knewen oure wickidnessis,
13 Tumeaasi, kumkana Yahwe na kuacha kumfuata Mungu. Tulizungumzia ulafi kujeuka nyuma, na kuanza kulalamika kutoka moyoni na maneno ya uongo.
to do synne, and to lie ayens the Lord. And we ben turned awei, that we yeden not aftir the bak of oure God, that we speken fals caleng, and trespassyng. We conseyueden, and spaken of herte wordis of leesyng; and doom was turned abak,
14 Haki imerudishwa nyuma, wenye haki wamesimama mbali sana; maana ukweli uko mashakani katika mraba wa umma, haki haiwezi kuja.
and riytfulnesse stood fer; for whi treuthe felle doun in the street, and equite miyt not entre.
15 Waaminifu wamenda zao, na yeyote anayegeuka mbali na maovu anajiathiri mwenyewe. Yahwe aliliona hilo na hakupendezwa maana hakuna haki.
And treuthe was maad in to foryetyng, and he that yede awei fro yuel, was opyn to robbyng. And the Lord siy, and it apperide yuel in hise iyen, for ther is no doom.
16 Aliona kwamba hakuna mtu, na akastaajabu kwamba hakuna mtu wa kuoma. Hivyo basi mkono wake uliletao wakovu kwake, na haki yake unamtosheleza yeye.
And God siy, that a man is not, and he was angwischid, for noon is that renneth to. And his arm schal saue to hym silf, and his riytfulnesse it silf schal conferme hym.
17 Huivaa haki kama ngao kifuani na kofia ya chuma ya wokovu kichwani mwake. Anajivika mwenyewe kwa mavazi ya kisasi na kuvaa vazi la bidii.
He is clothid with riytfulnesse as with an harburioun, and the helm of helthe is in his heed; he is clothid with clothis of veniaunce, and he is hilid as with a mentil of feruent worchyng.
18 Analipa tena kwa kilichotokea, hukumu ya hasira kwa adui zake na kwa adui atairidisha adhabu ya kisiwa kama zawadi yao.
As to veniaunce, as to yeldyng of indignacioun to hise enemyes, and to quityng of tyme to hise aduersaries, he schal yelde while to ylis.
19 Hivyo wataliogopa jina la Yahwe kutoka magharibi na utukufu wake kutoka mashariki; maana atakuja kama mkondo wa mto, inaendeshwa na pumzi ya Yahwe.
And thei that ben at the west, schulen drede the name of the Lord, and thei that ben at the risyng of the sunne, schulen drede the glorie of hym; whanne he schal come as a violent flood, whom the spirit of the Lord compellith.
20 Mkombozi atakuja Sayuni na wale watkaojeuka kutoka matendo yao ya uasi katika nyumba ya Yakobo- Hili ni tamko la Yahwe.
Whan ayen biere schal come to Syon, and to hem that goen ayen fro wickidnesse in Jacob, seith the Lord.
21 Na kama mimi, hili ni agano langu pamoja nao- asema Yahwe- Roho yangu iliyo juu yenu, na maneno yangu niliyoyaweka kinywani mwenu, hayataondoka midomo mwenu au kuodoka mbali na midomo wajukuu wenu, au kwenda mbali asema Yahwe- kuanziia sasa na hata milele.''
This is my boond of pees with hem, seith the Lord; My spirit which is in thee, and my wordis whiche Y haue set in thi mouth, schulen not go awei fro thi mouth, and fro the mouth of thi seed, seith the Lord, fro hennus forth and til into with outen ende.
