Isaiah 21
1 The burden of the desert Sea. As the whirlewindes in the South vse to passe from the wildernesse, so shall it come from the horrible land.
Ĩno nĩyo ndũmĩrĩri nditũ ĩkoniĩ Werũ ũrĩa ũrĩ Hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Iria: Atĩrĩrĩ, o ta ũrĩa ihuhũkanio iria nene ihurutanaga ituĩkanĩirie bũrũri wa gũthini, ũguo noguo mũtharĩkĩri agooka oimĩte werũ-inĩ, kuuma bũrũri wa kũguoyohania.
2 A grieuous vision was shewed vnto me, The transgressour against a transgressour, and the destroyer against a destroyer. Goe vp Elam, besiege Media: I haue caused all the mourning thereof to cease.
Niĩ nĩnyonetio kĩoneki gĩa kũmakania mũno: Mũkunyanĩri no arakunyanĩra, nake mũtahani no aratahana. Wee Elamu tharĩkĩra! Nawe Media, thiũrũrũkĩria! Gũcaaya kũrĩa anagũcaaithia nĩngagũkinyia mũthia.
3 Therefore are my loynes filled with sorow: sorowes haue taken me as the sorowes of a woman that trauayleth: I was bowed downe when I heard it, and I was amased when I sawe it.
Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo mwĩrĩ wakwa nĩũiyũrĩtwo nĩ ruo, ruo rũnene nĩrũũnyiitĩte, o ta ruo rwa mũtumia akĩrũmwo; ngagĩtururio nĩ maũndũ marĩa ndĩraigua, na ngagegeario nĩ maũndũ marĩa ndĩrona.
4 Mine heart failed: fearefulnesse troubled me: the night of my pleasures hath he turned into feare vnto me.
Ngoro yakwa nĩĩratumatuuma, na ngainaina nĩ guoya; hwaĩ-inĩ ũrĩa ndĩriragĩria ũtuĩkĩte ũndũ wa kũũmakia mũno.
5 Prepare thou the table: watch in the watch towre: eate, drinke: arise, ye princes, anoynt the shielde.
Nao nĩmaarĩte metha, na makaara mĩgeka, nĩguo marĩe na manyue! Ũkĩrai inyuĩ anene, mũhake ngo maguta!
6 For thus hath the Lord said vnto me, Go, set a watchman, to tell what he seeth.
Jehova anjĩĩrĩte atĩrĩ: “Thiĩ, ũige mũrangĩri wa gũcũthĩrĩria na ũmwĩre amenyithanie ũrĩa aroona.
7 And he sawe a charet with two horsemen: a charet of an asse, and a charet of a camel: and he hearkened and tooke diligent heede.
Rĩrĩa angĩona ngaari cia ita irĩ na mbarathi ihaanaine, na andũ magĩũka mahaicĩte ndigiri kana ngamĩĩra-rĩ, nĩaikare eiguĩte, akeigua biũ.”
8 And he cryed, A lyon: my lorde, I stand continually vpon ye watche towre in the day time, and I am set in my watche euery night:
Nake mũrangĩri akĩanĩrĩra, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũthenya o mũthenya, mwathi wakwa, ndũgamaga gĩtara-inĩ kĩa mũrangĩri; na ũtukũ o ũtukũ njikaraga handũ hakwa ha kũrangĩra.
9 And beholde, this mans charet commeth with two horsemen. And he answered and said, Babel is fallen: it is fallen, and all the images of her gods hath he broken vnto the ground.
Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩharooka mũndũ akuuĩtwo nĩ ngaari ya ita, ĩrĩ na mbarathi ihaanaine. Nake aracookia ũhoro akoiga atĩrĩ: ‘Babuloni nĩrĩgũu, ĩĩ nĩrĩgwĩte! Mĩhianano yothe ya ngai ciakuo nĩmĩhehenje, ĩkaharagana thĩ!’”
10 O my threshing, and the corne of my floore. That which I haue heard of the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, haue I shewed vnto you.
Inyuĩ andũ akwa, o inyuĩ mũthuthĩirwo kĩhuhĩro-inĩ kĩa ngano-rĩ, ngũmwĩra ũrĩa njiguĩte kuuma kũrĩ Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, kuuma kũrĩ Ngai wa Isiraeli.
11 The burden of Dumah. He calleth vnto me out of Seir, Watchman, what was in ye night? Watchman, what was in the night?
Ĩno nĩ ndũmĩrĩri nditũ ĩkoniĩ Duma: Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩ harĩ mũndũ ũraanjĩta kuuma Seiru, akanjũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũrangĩri, ũtukũ ũkinyĩte ha? Mũrangĩri ũyũ, ũtukũ ũkinyĩte ha?”
12 The watchman saide, The morning commeth, and also the night. If yee will aske, enquire: returne and come.
Nake mũrangĩri akamũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Gũkiriĩ gũkĩa, no rĩrĩ, nĩgũgũcooka gũtuke. Angĩkorwo kũrĩ ũndũ ũkũũria-rĩ, ũria; ũcooke ũũke hĩndĩ ĩngĩ.”
13 The burden against Arabia. In the forest of Arabia shall yee tarie all night, euen in the waies of Dedanim.
Ĩno nĩyo ndũmĩrĩri nditũ ĩkoniĩ bũrũri wa Arabia: Inyuĩ ikundi cia agendi a Adedani, o inyuĩ mwambĩte hema ithaka-inĩ cia Arabia-rĩ,
14 O inhabitants of the lande of Tema, bring foorth water to meete the thirstie, and preuent him that fleeth with his bread.
twarĩrai andũ arĩa anyootu maaĩ; na inyuĩ mũtũũraga bũrũri wa Tema, tũngiai andũ acio maroora irio
15 For they flee from the drawen swords, euen from the drawen sword, and from the bent bowe, and from the grieuousnesse of warre.
Nĩgũkorwo maroorĩra rũhiũ rwa njora, o rũhiũ rwa njora rũrĩa rũcomoretwo, makoorĩra ũta mũgeete, na makoima kũrĩa mbaara ĩĩhĩire.
16 For thus hath the Lord sayd vnto me, Yet a yeere according to the yeeres of an hireling, and all the glorie of Kedar shall faile.
Mwathani aranjĩĩra atĩrĩ: “Mwaka ũmwe ũtanathira, ũtarĩtwo ta ũrĩa mĩaka ya mũndũ wa kwandĩkwo wĩra ĩrĩkanagĩrwo-rĩ, riiri wothe wa Kedari nĩũgaathira.
17 And the residue of the nomber of ye strong archers of the sonnes of Kedar shall be fewe: for the Lord God of Israel hath spoken it.
Andũ arĩa magaatigario nĩ thigari iria ciikagia mĩguĩ, o acio njamba cia ita cia Kedari-rĩ, magaakorwo marĩ o anini.” Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli nĩwe warĩtie ũhoro ũcio.
