¹I am sought out of them that inquired not [for me], I am found of them that sought me not; I have said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.

¹ Borey kaŋ yaŋ mana ay hã du ay. Borey kaŋ yaŋ mana ay ceeci no du ay. Dumi fo kaŋ mana ay maa ce se no ay ne: «Ay neeya, ay neeya!»

²I have stretched out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, who walk in a way not good, after their own thoughts;

² Ay foy k'ay kambey salle jama turanto wo se, Ngey kaŋ yaŋ goono ga dira fondo kaŋ si boori ra, Ngey bumbey miiley boŋ.

³the people that provoke me to anger continually to my face, sacrificing in gardens and burning incense upon the bricks;

³ Jama din goono ga yanje ceeci ay gaa han kulu taray kwaaray, I goono ga sargay te fariyaŋ ra, I goono ga dugu ton sargay feema yaŋ ra,

⁴who sit down among the graves, and lodge in the secret places; who eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things [is in] their vessels;

⁴ I goono ga goro saarayyaŋ game ra, I goono ga kani nangu tugante yaŋ ra, Gursuna* ham ŋwaakoyaŋ no, Kaŋ yaŋ gonda fanta hari maafe ngey kusey ra.

⁵who say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.

⁵ Ngey no ga ne: «Kay noodin, ni hinne! Ma si maan ay, zama ay hanan da nin!» Borey din ya dullu no ay niina ra, Danji mo no kaŋ foy ka di.

⁶Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,

⁶ A go, ay jine no a go hantumante, Ay si dangay bo, kala nd'ay bana. Oho, ay ga bana i se i gandey ra.

⁷your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith Jehovah, who have burned incense upon the mountains, and outraged me upon the hills; and I will measure their former work into their bosom.

⁷ Ay g'araŋ taaley d'araŋ kaayey waney mo bana care banda, Ngey kaŋ yaŋ na dugu ton tondi kuukey boŋ, I n'ay maa sara mo tudey boŋ -- Woodin se no ay g'i doŋ te-goyey neesi ka bana i se i gandey ra. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.

⁸Thus saith Jehovah: As the new wine is found in the cluster, and it is said, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it; so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy [them] all.

⁸ Yaa no Rabbi ci: Sanda mate kaŋ cine i ga du reyzin hari reyzin fafa gaa, i ga ne mo: «Ma s'a halaci, zama a gonda albarka,» Yaadin cine no ay ga te ay tamey se, Zama i kulu ma si halaci.

⁹And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah a possessor of my mountains; and mine elect shall possess it, and my servants shall dwell there.

⁹ Ay ga haama fattandi Yakuba gaa. Yahuda ra no ay tondi kuuko tubukwa ga fun. Ay suubanantey g'a tubu, ay tamey mo ga goro noodin.

¹⁰And the Sharon shall be a fold for flocks, and the valley of Achor a couching-place of the herds, for my people that have sought me.

¹⁰ Saruna ga ciya feejey kuray do, Akor gooro mo ga te naŋ kaŋ haw kurey ga kani, Ay jama kaŋ n'ay ceeci se.

¹¹But ye who forsake Jehovah, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Gad, and fill up mixed wine unto Meni:

¹¹ Amma araŋ kaŋ ga Rabbi furu, Araŋ ga dinya ay tondi hananta. Araŋ kaŋ ga taabal soola Bonkaanay se, Ka gaasiyayaŋ toonandi nda duvan* diibante Waadu se,

¹²I will even assign you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down in the slaughter; because I called, and ye did not answer, I spoke, and ye did not hear; but ye did what was evil in mine eyes, and chose that wherein I delight not.

¹² Ay g'araŋ waadu takuba se. Araŋ kulu mo, araŋ ga sumbal hal i m'araŋ wi. Zama waato kaŋ ay ce, araŋ mana tu. Waato kaŋ ay salaŋ mo, araŋ mana hangan. Amma araŋ na haŋ kaŋ ga laala te ay jine, Araŋ suuban haŋ kaŋ mana kaan ay se mo.

¹³Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, my servants shall eat, and *ye* shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, and *ye* shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, and *ye* shall be ashamed;

¹³ Woodin sabbay se no Rabbi, Koy Beero ci: A go, ay tamey ga ŋwa, amma araŋ wo ga maa haray. A go, ay tamey ga haŋ, amma araŋ wo ga maa jaw. A go, ay tamey ga farhã, amma araŋ wo ga haaw.

¹⁴behold, my servants shall sing aloud for gladness of heart, and *ye* shall cry out for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.

¹⁴ A go, ay tamey ga doon bine kaani sabbay se, Amma araŋ wo ga hẽ bine saray sabbay se, Araŋ ga wurru mo biya kaŋ di bone sabbay se.

¹⁵And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto mine elect; for the Lord Jehovah will slay thee, and will call his servants by another name:

¹⁵ Araŋ g'araŋ maa naŋ ay suubanantey se a ma ciya haŋ kaŋ i ga boro laali nd'a. Rabbi, Koy Beero mo ga ni wi. Amma a ga nga tamey ce da maa taji.

¹⁶so that he who blesseth himself in the land shall bless himself by the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the land shall swear by the God of truth: because the former troubles shall be forgotten, and because they shall be hidden from mine eyes.

¹⁶ Bora kaŋ na nga boŋ albarkandi ndunnya ra, Irikoy cimi-cimo ra no a ga nga boŋ albarkandi. Koyne, boro kaŋ ze ndunnya ra, Irikoy cimi-cimo no a ga ze d'a. Zama borey ga dinya waato masiibey gaa, Zama ay n'i tugu.

¹⁷For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

¹⁷ Zama a go, beene tajey da ganda tajo no ay ga taka. Borey si fongu waato muraadey gaa koyne, I si baa furo i biney ra mo.

¹⁸But be glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create. For behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.

¹⁸ Amma kala araŋ ma te bine kaani ka farhã hal abada haŋ kaŋ ay ga taka sabbay se. Zama a go, ay ga Urusalima taka farhã hari, A borey mo bine kaani hari.

¹⁹And I will rejoice over Jerusalem, and will joy in my people; and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.

¹⁹ Ay ga farhã mo Urusalima sabbay se, Ya te bine kaani mo ay jama sabbay se. I si ye ka maa hẽeni jinde wala kaatiyaŋ jinde a ra koyne.

²⁰There shall be no more thenceforth an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not completed his days; for the youth shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner being a hundred years old shall be accursed.

²⁰ Za sohõ boro si ye ka di a ra attaciriya kaŋ jirbey ga kayna, Wala dottijo kaŋ mana nga jirbey toonandi. Zama zanka ga bu a gonda jiiri zangu, Amma zunubikooni kaŋ to jiiri zangu ga ciya laalante.

²¹And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof:

²¹ Borey ga windiyaŋ cina ka goro i ra mo. I ga reyzin kaliyaŋ tilam mo k'i nafa ŋwa.

²²they shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree shall be the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

²² I si cinari te, boro fo ma goro a ra, I si tilam te, boro fo ma ŋwa a gaa mo. Zama sanda mate kaŋ cine tuuri-nya jirbey ga bara, Yaadin cine no ay jama jirbey ga bara. Ay suubanantey mo ga gay i goono ga maa ngey kambe goyey kaani.

²³They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for terror; for they are the seed of the blessed of Jehovah, and their offspring with them.

²³ I si goy te yaamo bo, i si ize hay masiiba se. Zama ngey wo, Rabbi wane dumi albarkanteyaŋ no, Ngey nda ngey izey i banda.

²⁴And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

²⁴ A ga ciya mo, za i mana ce ay ga tu. Waati kaŋ i goono ga salaŋ mo, ay ga maa.

²⁵The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox; and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith Jehovah.

²⁵ Sakali nda feej'ize ga kuru care banda, Muusu beeri ga subu ŋwa sanda haw cine, Kusa mo ga ciya gondi se ŋwaari. Boro kulu si marayyaŋ te, i si halaciyaŋ te mo ay tondi hananta kulu ra. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.
