Isaiah 46
1 Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth; their idols are upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: the things that ye carried about are made a load, a burden to the weary [beast].
Bel kod Nebo ma nyisechegi miywayo gi farese opodho piny. Nyisechegi mosebedo kitingʼo atingʼa osekelo chandruok ma giolo joma otingʼogi.
2 They stoop, they bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are gone into captivity.
Gipodho piny giduto; ma ok ginyal kelo resruok ne joma lamogi, ka gin giwegi otergi e twech.
3 Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which have been borne [by me] from the belly, which have been carried from the womb:
Winjuru wachna, yaye od Jakobo, un jo-Israel duto modongʼ, un duto ma aseyiero nyaka aa chakruok kendo ma aserito nyaka aa e nywolu.
4 and even to old age I am he, and even to hoar hairs will I carry [you]: I have made, and I will bear; yea, I will carry, and will deliver.
Kata ka udoko moti ma wiu otimo lwar, to pod An mana en, An ema abiro tingʼou mi aresu.
5 To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?
To en ngʼa ma unyalo pimago kata ma unyalo kwano ni rom koda? Koso ere ngʼama dichal koda ma dwapimrego?
6 Such as lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance, they hire a goldsmith, and he maketh it a god; they fall down, yea, they worship.
Jomoko olo dhahabu piny koa ei okepegi kendo pimo fedha e ratil; bangʼe gichulo jatheth, mondo olesnegigo nyasaye, kendo gikulore piny mi gilame.
7 They bear him upon the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place, and he standeth; from his place shall he not remove: yea, one shall cry unto him, yet can he not answer, nor save him out of his trouble.
Gitingʼe malo ma gikete e gokgi; eka gikete e kare monego obedie kendo kanyo ema osikoe. Kama oketeno ok onyal chorore. Kata bed ni ngʼato nyalo ywagorene to ok onyal dwoko; bende ok onyal rese e chandruokne.
8 Remember this, and shew yourselves men: bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors.
Paruru wachni, keturu e pachu kendo pareuru e chunyu un joma ongʼanyo.
9 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; [I am] God, and there is none like me;
Paruru gik mosekadho, gigo mane otimore chon, An e Nyasaye kendo onge moro machielo, bende An e Nyasaye kendo onge moro machalo koda.
10 declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not [yet] done; saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
Anyiso giko mar gimoro mana e kinde mochakore, bende asebedo kahulo gik mapok otimore. Awacho ni: Gima awacho nyaka timre kendo abiro timo gimoro amora mahero.
11 calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country; yea, I have spoken, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed, I will also do it.
Koa yo wuok chiengʼ nakel winyo mager, koa e piny mabor anakel ngʼato machopo dwarona. Gima asewacho nyaka chop kare, gima asechano ema abiro timo.
12 Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted, that are far from righteousness:
Winjauru, un joma chunygi tek kendo mabor gi adiera.
13 I bring near my righteousness, it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry; and I will place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory,
Akelo adiera mara machiegni, ok en mabor; kendo warruokna ok nodeki. Abiro kelo resruok ni Sayun, kendo duongʼna nobed Israel.
