²The peoples will take them, and bring them to their place. The house of Israel will possess them in Yahweh’s land for servants and for handmaids. They will take as captives those whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.

² Dumey cindey mo ga Yakuba banda sambu ka ye nd'ey ngey nango ra. Israyla dumo mo ga ngey kwaarey tubu Rabbi laabo ra, Yawey ga ciya i se bannya nda koŋŋa yaŋ. Borey kaŋ goro ka Israyla may waato, Israyla ga ye k'i may. Borey kaŋ yaŋ n'i kankam waato mo, I ga ye k'i may.

¹²How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low!

¹² Ya nin, handariya darzakoy, mo boyaŋ ize aro, Nin neeya ka fun beene ka kaŋ. Nin, ndunnya dumey kaynandikwa, I ga ni zeeri hala ganda.

¹³You said in your heart, “I will ascend into heaven! I will exalt my throne above the stars of God! I will sit on the mountain of assembly, in the far north!

¹⁷ Manti nga no ka ndunnya himandi sanda saaji cine ka gallu beerey zeeri, Kaŋ mana nga tamtaray izey taŋ i ma ye ngey kwaara, wala?»

¹⁸All the kings of the nations, sleep in glory, everyone in his own house.

¹⁸ Ndunnya dumey bonkooney kulu, oho, i kulu, Darza ra no i ga kani, boro kulu nga saara ra.

¹⁹But you are cast away from your tomb like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain, who are thrust through with the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit; like a dead body trodden under foot.

¹⁹ Amma nin wo, i na ni furu zaati no ya-haray ni saara banda, Sanda tuuri kambe kaŋ i ga dond'a cine. I na ni daabu nda buukoyaŋ kaŋ wongu n'i gundey fun da takuba, Kaŋ yaŋ goono ga zulli ka koy guuso ra tondey do, Sanda buuko kaŋ ce ga taamu-taamu cine.

²²“I will rise up against them,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and cut off from Babylon name and remnant, and son and son’s son,” says Yahweh.

²² Ay bumbo mo, ay ga tun ka gaaba nd'ey. Yaadin no Rabbi Kundeykoyo ci. Ay ma Babila maa nd'a cindo tuusu, Ize aru da haama kulu. Yaadin no Rabbi ci.

²³“I will also make it a possession for the porcupine, and pools of water. I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,” says Yahweh of Armies.

²³ Ay ga Babila ciya kuunu nangoray, Da hari bangu-bangu yaŋ. Ay m'a haabu mo nda halaciyaŋ haabirji, Yaadin no Rabbi Kundeykoyo ci.

²⁴Yahweh of Armies has sworn, saying, “Surely, as I have thought, so shall it happen; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:

²⁸This burden was in the year that king Ahaz died.

²⁸ Jiiro kaŋ ra bonkoono Ahaz bu no annabitaray sanni woone wo kaa:

²⁹Don’t rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod that struck you is broken; for out of the serpent’s root an adder will emerge, and his fruit will be a fiery flying serpent.

²⁹ Ya Filistiya, araŋ kulu, Ma si farhã ka ne, way, «Goobo kaŋ n'iri kar din ceeri.» Zama gondi kaajo gaa no gazama ga fatta, Gazama hayyaŋ mo ga hima gondi futo kaŋ ga zuru danga mali cine.

³⁰The firstborn of the poor will eat, and the needy will lie down in safety; and I will kill your root with famine, and your remnant will be killed.

³⁰ Talka ize hay-jina ga du ŋwaari, Jaŋaykoy mo ga kani baani samay. Amma a ga ni kaajo wi da haray, Ni waney kaŋ cindi mo, hara g'i wi.

³¹Howl, gate! Cry, city! You are melted away, Philistia, all of you; for smoke comes out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks.

³¹ Ya nin faada meyo, ma wurru! Ya gallo, ma kaati nda jinde beeri! Ya Filistiya, araŋ kulu, araŋ kar ka say. Zama azawa kambe haray no dullu goono ga fun, Boro fo mo si no kaŋ ga fatta sasara ra.

³²What will they answer the messengers of the nation? That Yahweh has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people will take refuge.
