Isaya 7
1 E kinde mane Ahaz wuod Jotham ma wuod Uzia, ne ruodh Juda, ruoth Rezin mar Aram to gi Peka wuod Remalia ruodh Israel nomonjo Jerusalem gi lweny, to ne ok ginyal loye.
And it came to pass in the days of Achaz [the son] of Joatham, the son of Ozias, king of Juda, there came up Rasim king of Aram, and Phakee son of Romelias, king of Israel, against Jerusalem to war against it, but they could not take it.
2 Eka nowach ne od Daudi niya, “Jo-Aram osetimo winjruok gi jo-Efraim,” omiyo chuny Ahaz gi joge kihondko osemako, mana ka yien manie bungu ma yamo yiengo.
And a message was brought to the house of David, saying, Aram has conspired with Ephraim. And his soul was amazed, and the soul of his people, as in a wood a tree is moved by the wind.
3 Eka Jehova Nyasaye nowachone Isaya niya, “Wuogi in kaachiel gi wuodi miluongo ni Shear-Jashub udhi mondo urad gi Ahaz kama oula madonjo e yawo mamalo ogikie mantie but yo miluongo ni Puoth Jaluok lewni.
And the Lord said to Esaias, Go forth to meet Achaz, thou, and thy son Jasub who is left, to the pool of the upper way of the fuller's field.
4 Wachne ni, ‘Bed motangʼ, hori kendo kik iluor. Kik chunyi nyosre nikech osiki ariyo mag mach motimo iro, machal gi mirima mager mar Rezin kod Aram to gi mar wuod Remalia.
And thou shalt say to him, Take care to be quiet, and fear not, neither let thy soul be disheartened because of these two smoking firebrands: for when my fierce anger is over, I will heal again.
5 Aram, Efraim kod wuod Remalia osechikoni obadho mondo otieki, kagiwacho niya,
And [as for] the son of Aram, and the son of Romelias, forasmuch as they have devised an evil counsel, [saying],
6 “Wadhi mondo wamonj Juda, wakidhe matindo tindo kendo wapoge e kindwa wawegi bangʼe waket wuod Tabel obed ruodhe.”
We will go up against Judea, and having conferred with them we will turn them away to our side, and we will make the son of Tabeel king of it;
7 To kata kamano ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto owacho, “‘Ok giniyud thuolo, bende ok notimre,
thus saith the Lord of hosts, This counsel shall not abide, nor come to pass.
8 nimar dala maduongʼ mar Aram en Damaski, to jatend Damaski en Rezin. Kuom higni piero auchiel gabich Efraim notieki ma kare nolal nono.
But the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus, Rasim; and yet within sixty and five years the kingdom of Ephraim shall cease from [being] a people.
9 Dala maduongʼ mar Efraim en Samaria, kendo jatend Samaria en mana wuod Remalia. Omiyo ka ok ichungʼ motegno e yie mari, to ok inichung ngangʼ.’”
And the head of Ephraim is Somoron, and the head of Somoron the son of Romelias: but if ye believe not, neither will ye at all understand.
10 Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo gi Ahaz kendo kawacho niya,
And the Lord again spoke to Achaz, saying,
11 “Kwa Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi ranyisi moro amora moa mwalo e bur piny kata moa e polo malo.” (Sheol h7585)
Ask for thyself a sign of the Lord thy God, in the depth or in the height. (Sheol h7585)
12 To Ahaz nowacho niya, “Ok abi kwayo to bende ok abi temo Jehova Nyasaye.”
And Achaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the Lord.
13 Eka Isaya nowacho niya, “To un joka Daudi, koro winjuru! Chand muchandogo ji pok oromou? Koso pod udwaro chando Nyasacha bende?
And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; is it a little thing for you to contend with men? and how do ye contend against the Lord?
14 Kuom mano Ruoth Nyasaye owuon biro miyou ranyisi machal kama: Nyako ngili biro mako ich minywol wuowi, ma noluonge ni Imanuel (tiende ni Nyasaye nikodwa).
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; behold, a virgin shall conceive in the womb, and shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Emmanuel.
15 Obiro chamo mana mor dhiangʼ kod mor kich nyaka chop orom pogo rach gi ber.
Butter and honey shall he eat, before he knows either to prefer evil [or] choose the good.
16 To kapok nyathino ongʼeyo pogo rach gi ber, to pinjeruodhi ariyo miluorogo notieki.
For before the child shall know good or evil, he refuses evil, to choose the good; and the land shall be forsaken which thou art afraid of because of the two kings.
17 Kokalo kuom ruodh Asuria, Jehova Nyasaye biro kelo kuomi gi kuom jogi kod od wuonu masira mane pok oneye nyaka ne Efraim pogre gi Juda.”
But God shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon the house of thy father, days which have never come, from the day that Ephraim took away from Juda the king of the Assyrians.
18 E kindeno Jehova Nyasaye nochok lwangʼni kawuok e aore mag Misri kendo notug kich koa e piny Asuria.
And it shall come to pass in that day that the Lord shall hiss for the flies, which [insect] shall rule over a part of the river of Egypt, and for the bee which is in the land of the Assyrians.
19 Giduto ginibi kendo ginidagi kuonde holo kod buche mag lwendni kendo e bungu mag kuthe kod sokni duto.
And they all shall enter into the clefts of the land, and into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves, and into every ravine.
20 E kindeno Ruoth Nyasaye nokonyre gi wembe mokwa tok Aora kocha ma en ruodh Asuria, mondo olielgo yie wiyeu, yie tiendeu kod yie tiku bende.
In that day the Lord shall shave with the hired razor of the king of Assyria beyond the river the head, and the hairs of the feet, and will remove the beard.
21 E kindeno ngʼato biro yudo konyruokne koa kuom nyaroya kod diek ariyo.
And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] a man shall rear a heifer, and two sheep.
22 To nikech chak mangʼeny manonyiedh kuomgi enonwangʼ mor dhiangʼ mochamo. Jogo duto manodongʼ e pinyno nocham mana mor dhiangʼ kod mor kich.
And it shall come to pass from their drinking an abundance of milk, [that] every one that is left on the land shall eat butter and honey.
23 E kindeno kuonde duto ma yande nitie mzabibu mangʼeny, maromo pesa mangʼeny nolokre pedo kod kuthe.
And it shall come to pass in that day, [for] every place where there shall be a thousand vines at a thousand shekels, they shall become barren land and thorns.
24 Ji nodhi kuno gi atungʼ kod asere nikech pinyno duto nopongʼ gi pedo kod kuthe.
[Men] shall enter thither with arrow and bow; for all the land shall be [barren] ground and thorns.
25 To kuom gode matindo ma yande ipuro gi kwer, to ok unudhie kendo nikech luoro mar pedo mogawore kod kuthe, to ginibed kuonde ma dhok gi rombe kwayoe.
And every mountain shall be certainly ploughed: there shall no fear come thither: for there shall be from [among] the [barren] ground and thorns that whereon cattle shall feed and oxen shall tread.
