Isaya 29:8
Isaiah 29:8 · Biblica® Open Kiswahili Contemporary Version 2015
kama vile mtu aliye na njaa aotavyo kuwa anakula, lakini huamka, bado njaa yake ingalipo, kama vile mtu mwenye kiu aotavyo kuwa anakunywa maji, lakini huamka akiwa anazimia, akiwa bado angali ana kiu. Hivyo ndivyo itakavyokuwa kwa makundi yote ya mataifa yanayopigana dhidi ya Mlima Sayuni.
Isaiah 29:8 in English
Isaiah 29:8 · Berean Standard Bible
as when a hungry man dreams he is eating, then awakens still hungry; as when a thirsty man dreams he is drinking, then awakens faint and parched. So will it be for all the many nations who go to battle against Mount Zion.
Context
6Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote atakuja
na ngurumo, tetemeko la ardhi, na kwa sauti kuu,
atakuja na dhoruba, tufani na miali ya moto iteketezayo. 7Kisha makundi ya mataifa yote yale yapiganayo dhidi ya Arieli,
yale yanayomshambulia yeye na ngome zake, na kumzunguka kwa jeshi,
watakuwa kama ilivyo ndoto,
kama maono wakati wa usiku: 8kama vile mtu aliye na njaa aotavyo kuwa anakula,
lakini huamka, bado njaa yake ingalipo,
kama vile mtu mwenye kiu aotavyo kuwa anakunywa maji,
lakini huamka akiwa anazimia, akiwa bado angali ana kiu.
Hivyo ndivyo itakavyokuwa kwa makundi yote ya mataifa
yanayopigana dhidi ya Mlima Sayuni. 9Duwaeni na kushangaa,
jifanyeni vipofu wenyewe na msione,
leweni, lakini si kwa mvinyo,
pepesukeni lakini si kwa kileo. 10Bwana amewaleteeni usingizi mzito:
Ameziba macho yenu (ninyi manabii);
amefunika vichwa vyenu (ninyi waonaji).
