Isaya 30
1 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Ubiro neno malit, un nyithindo ma wigi tek, un jogo mosieko gi riekni ma ok maga, ka uloso riwruok ka ok owuok e dwond Roho mara, kendo ka ubiwo richo ewi richo;
“Woe to the rebellious children,” says Adonai, “who take counsel, but not from me; and who make an alliance, but not with my Spirit, that they may add sin to sin,
2 uringo kudhi Misri ka ok upenja, umanyo kony kuom Farao mondo oresu, kendo ugengʼoru e tipo mar Misri kaka karu mar pondo.
who set out to go down into Egypt [Abode of slavery], and have not asked my advice; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to take refuge in the shadow of Egypt [Abode of slavery]!
3 To gengʼruok mawuok kuom Farao nobednu wichkuot, kendo tipo mar Misri nokelnu masira.
Therefore the strength of Pharaoh will be your shame, and the refuge in the shadow of Egypt [Abode of slavery] your confusion.
4 Kata obedo ni gin gi jotelo Zoan kendo jootene osechopo Hanes,
For their princes are at Zoan, and their ambassadors have come to Hanes.
5 to ji duto noyud wichkuot kuom jogo ma ok nyal konyogi, jogo ma ok nyal konyogi kata kelonegi ber to mana wichkuot kod achaya.”
They shall all be ashamed because of a people that can’t profit them, that are not a help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.”
6 Ma e wach mane okor kuom le mag Negev: Kokadho e piny mar chandruok kod masira, motingʼo sibuoche machwo to gi mamon bende kama thuonde mag bungu kod thuonde maringo piyo odakie, jootegi tingʼo mwandugi e ngʼe punde kendo girkeni mag-gi otingʼ e kuom ngamia, kiterone oganda maonge ohala,
The burden of the animals of the South. Through the land of trouble and anguish, of the lioness and the lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they carry their riches on the shoulders of young donkeys, and their treasures on the humps of camels, to an unprofitable people.
7 ma en Misri, ma kony mare onge tiende. Kuom mano iluonge ni Rahab maonge nyalo.
For Egypt [Abode of slavery] helps in vain, and to no purpose; therefore have I called her Rahab who sits still.
8 Dhiyo sani kendo indiknegi wach e kidi mopa, Ndike e kitabu, mondo omi obed janeno, manyaka chiengʼ e ndalo mabiro.
Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and inscribe it in a book, that it may be for the time to come forever and ever.
9 Magi gin oganda mongʼanyo nyithindo ma jo-miriambo, ma ok oikore winjo puonj Jehova Nyasaye.
For it is a rebellious people, lying children, children who will not sh'ma ·hear obey· Adonai’s Torah ·Teaching·;
10 Giwachone jokor wach ni, “Kik une fweny moro amora kendo!” To ne jonabi, “Kik uchak unyiswa fweny moro amora makare!” Kornwauru mana weche mamorowa mag wuondruok.
who tell the seers, “Don’t see!” and to the prophets, “Don’t prophesy to us right things. Tell us pleasant things. Prophesy deceits.
11 Weuru yorni, wuoguru e ndarani kendo we bwogowa gi Jal Maler mar Israel.
Get out of the way. Turn aside from the path. Cause the haKadosh Isra'el [the Holy One of God prevails] to cease from before us.”
12 Kuom mano, ma e wach ma Jal Maler mar Israel wacho: “Nikech isedagi winjo oteni, mi iserwako chuny mar sando ji kendo iseyiengori e timbe mag miganga,
Therefore thus says the haKadosh Isra'el [the Holy One of God prevails], “Because you despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and rely on it;
13 richoni nobini kaka ohinga mabor mobarore, matetni kendo ruombore piny matek dichiel.
therefore this iniquity shall be to you like a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly in an instant.
14 Obiro ngʼinjore matindo tindo mana ka agulu molwar piny motore, ma ok nyal yud kata dire moro kodongʼ minyalo kwanygo mach e dwol kata pate mitwomogo pi.”
He will break it as a potter’s vessel is broken, breaking it in pieces without sparing, so that there won’t be found among the broken piece a piece good enough to take fire from the hearth, or to dip up water out of the cistern.”
15 Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, Jal Maler mar Israel wacho: “Warruok gi kwe nowuog kuom hulo richo, tekou nowuog kuom horuok kod genou kuoma, to kata onge gima usetimo kuom gigi duto.
For thus said the Lord Adonai, the haKadosh Isra'el [the Holy One of God prevails], “You will be saved in making teshuvah ·complete return· and rest. Your strength will be in quietness and in confidence.” You refused,
16 Kata kamano uwacho ni, ‘Ooyo, wabiro idho farese mondo waringi.’ To mano ber ubiro ringo! Bende nuwacho ni, ‘Wabiro idho faresewa mi waringi.’ Kuom mano joma lawou nobed jongʼwech molony.
but you said, “No, for we will flee on horses;” therefore you will flee; and, “We will ride on the swift;” therefore those who pursue you will be swift.
17 Jou alufu achiel noringi ka ngʼato achiel obwogogi; bende jou noring duto ka ji abich obwogogi, mi unudongʼ kar kendu, mana ka yiend bandera mochwo ewi got malo kata ka law bandera mafwadhore ewi got.”
One thousand will flee at the threat of one. At the threat of five, you will flee until you are left like a beacon on the top of a mountain, and like a banner on a hill.
18 Kata kamano pod odwaro nyiso ngʼwono mare kuome; obiro mondo onyisu kech mare. Nimar Jehova Nyasaye en Nyasaye ma ja-adiera. Jogo duto mogeno kuome ogwedhi.
Therefore Adonai will wait, that he may be gracious to you; and therefore he will be exalted, that he may have racham ·merciful love· on you, for Adonai is a God of mishpat ·justice·. Blessed are all those who wait for him.
19 Yaye un oganda mag Sayun, modak Jerusalem, ok unuchak uywag kendo. Mano kaka notimnu ngʼwono e kinde ma unuywagne mondo okonyu! E sa moro amora mowinjo ywaku, to nokonyu.
For the people will dwell in Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking] at Jerusalem [City of peace]. You will weep no more. He will surely be gracious to you at the voice of your cry. When he sh'ma ·hears obeys· you, he will answer you.
20 Kata Jehova Nyasaye miyou chiemo mar chandruok kod pi mar masira, to jopuonju ok nochak opondnu kendo, to ununegi gi wengeu uwegi.
Though the Lord may give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your teachers won’t be hidden any more, but your eyes will see your teachers;
21 Kata ka ubaro korachwich kata koracham, itu to nowinj dwol mawuok ka ngʼeu, kawacho niya, “Ma e yo; luweuru.”
and when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left, your ears will sh'ma ·hear obey· a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way. Walk in it.”
22 Bangʼe unudwany nyisecheu manono mubawo gi fedha kod dhahabu; kendo unuwitgi ka ukwano gi ka gik ma ok ler, mi uwitgi ka nanga moywego remb nyodo, kuwachonegi niya, “Aiuru ira.”
You shall defile the overlaying of your engraved images of silver, and the plating of your molten images of gold. You shall cast them away as an unclean thing. You shall tell it, “Go away!”
23 Bende noornu koth kuom kodhi muchwowo e lowo kendo chiemo mawuok e piny nobed mamiyo kendo mangʼeny. E kindeno jambu nokwa e lege madongo.
He will give the rain for your seed, with which you will sow the ground; and bread of the increase of the ground will be rich and plentiful. In that day, your livestock will feed in large pastures.
24 Rwethu kod pundeu mapuro lowo nocham lumb ogada kod chiembgi moregi, mi keyo gi uma kod opawo.
The oxen likewise and the young donkeys that till the ground will eat savory feed, which has been winnowed with the shovel and with the fork.
25 E odiechiengʼ maduongʼ mar yengʼo, ka kuonde ngʼicho motingʼore gi malo opodho, oula mag pige nomol ewi gode duto kod pidhe duto motingʼore malo.
There shall be brooks and streams of water on every lofty mountain and on every high hill in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
26 Dwe norieny ka wangʼ chiengʼ, kendo ler mar chiengʼ nobed maler moloyo kaka orieny pile nyadibiriyo, machal mana gi ler mar chiengʼ mar ndalo abiriyo, e kindeno ma Jehova Nyasaye nowir kuonde duto moriemo mag joge kendo nochang adhondegi.
Moreover the light of the moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven days, in the day that Adonai binds up the fracture of his people, and heals the wound they were struck with.
27 Ne, Nying Jehova Nyasaye aa kuma bor, ka en-gi mirima mager machalo gi iro mopongʼo bor polo; dhoge opongʼ gi mirima mangʼeny, kendo lewe en mach mawengʼo.
Behold, Adonai’s name comes from far away, burning with his anger, and in thick rising smoke. His lips are full of indignation, and his tongue is as a devouring fire.
28 Muche chalo gi oula mopongʼ, mopongʼ nyaka dwonde. Oyiengo ogendini gi rapiedhi mar kethruok; kendo oywayo ji gi chuma mamiyo girwenyo.
His breath is as an overflowing stream that reaches even to the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of destruction; and a bridle that leads to ruin will be in the jaws of the peoples.
29 Kendo unuwer wende machalo gi wende mag nyasi mag sawo maler miwero gotieno; chunyu nobed gi mor mana ka ji mabedo gi mor ka goyo asili kadhi e got Jehova Nyasaye, ma en Lwanda mar Israel.
You will have a song, as in the night when a holy feast is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goes with a flute to come to Adonai’s mountain, to Israel [God prevails]’s Rock.
30 Jehova Nyasaye nomi oganda winj dwonde mar duongʼ kendo enomi gine lwete kabiro piny, gi mirima mager kod mach mawengʼo, bende gi rumbi motwere gi polo mariadore kod pe.
Adonai will cause his glorious voice to be sh'ma ·heard obeyed·, and will show the descent of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and the flame of a devouring fire, with a blast, storm, and hailstones.
31 Dwond Jehova Nyasaye biro mako dho jo-Asuria; to gi odungane obiro negogi.
For through Adonai’s voice the Assyrian will be dismayed. He will strike him with his rod.
32 Chwat ka chwat ma Jehova Nyasaye nochwadgigo gi ludhe mar kum kokedo kodgi malit, nomi jo-Nyasaye bed mamor ka gigoyo oyieke kod nyatiti.
Every stroke of the rod of punishment, which Adonai will lay on him, will be with the sound of tambourines and harps. He will fight with them in battles, brandishing weapons.
33 Tofeth noseiki nyaka aa chon; noseik ne ruoth. Kare mar kendo osekuny matut kendo malach, kodhurie yiende mangʼeny gi mach maduongʼ; kendo much Jehova Nyasaye, machalo mach makakni ema moke.
For Tophet (Place of fiery torment for the dead, located in Gehenna), his burning place, has long been ready. Yes, for the king it is prepared. He has made its pyre deep and large with fire and much wood. Adonai’s breath, like a stream of sulfur, kindles it.
