1“I am inquired of by those who didn’t ask; I am found by those who didn’t seek me: I said, See me, see me, to 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 spread out my hands all the day to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is 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.
3a people who provoke me to my face continually, sacrificing in gardens, and burning incense on 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 among the graves, and lodge in the secret places; who eat pig’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 yourself, don’t come near to me, for I am holier than you. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burns 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.
6“Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, yes, I will 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 own iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together,” says Yahweh, “who have burned incense on the mountains, and blasphemed me on the hills; therefore will I first measure their 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 says Yahweh, “As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, ‘Don’t destroy it, for a blessing is in it:’ so will I do for my servants’ sake, 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.
9I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains; and my chosen shall inherit 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.
10Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down in, for my people who 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.
11“But you who forsake Yahweh, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Fortune, and who fill up mixed wine to Destiny;
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 destine you to the sword, and you shall all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, you didn’t answer; when I spoke, you didn’t listen; but you did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”
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 says the Lord Yahweh, “Behold, my servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be disappointed;
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 for joy of heart, but you shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall wail for anguish 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.
15You shall leave your name for a curse to my chosen; and the Lord Yahweh will kill you; and he 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 blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from my 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.
17“For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things 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 you glad and rejoice forever 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.
19I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people; and there shall be heard in her no more the voice of weeping and 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.
20“There shall be no more there an infant of days, nor an old man who has not filled his days; for the child shall die one hundred years old, and the sinner being one 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.
21They shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
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 my chosen 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 labor in vain, nor bring forth for calamity; for they are the seed of the blessed of Yahweh, 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.
24It shall happen that, before they call, I will answer; and 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 food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain,” says Yahweh.
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.
