< Isaiah 18 >
1 Woe to the land of whirring wings, along the rivers of Cush,
Kaiton ƙasar da ake jin ƙarar fikafikai a bakin kogunan Kush,
2 which sends couriers by sea, in papyrus vessels on the waters. Go, swift messengers, to a people tall and smooth-skinned, to a people widely feared, to a powerful nation of strange speech, whose land is divided by rivers.
wadda ta aiko da jakadu ta teku cikin jiragen ruwan da aka yi da kyauro a bisa ruwa. Ku tafi, ku’yan saƙo masu sauri, zuwa ga dogayen mutane masu sulɓin jiki, zuwa ga mutanen da ake jin tsoro a ko’ina, al’umma mai ƙarfin iko tana jawabin da ba a saba ji ba, mai ƙasar da koguna suka raba.
3 All you people of the world and dwellers of the earth, when a banner is raised on the mountains, you will see it; when a ram’s horn sounds, you will hear it.
Ku dukan mutanen duniya, ku da kuke zama a duniya, sa’ad da aka ɗaga tutar a kan duwatsu, za ku gan shi, sa’ad da kuma aka busa ƙaho, za ku ji shi.
4 For this is what the LORD has told me: “I will quietly look on from My dwelling place, like shimmering heat in the sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.”
Ga abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa mini, “Zan yi shiru in kuma duba a hankali daga mazaunina, kamar ƙuna mai zafi a hasken rana, kamar girgijen raba a lokacin girbi.”
5 For before the harvest, when the blossom is gone and the flower becomes a ripening grape, He will cut off the shoots with a pruning knife and remove and discard the branches.
Gama kafin girbi, sa’ad da furanni suka karkaɗe furanni kuma suka zama’ya’yan inabin da suka nuna, zai faffalle rassan kuringar inabi da wuƙa, ya yanke ya kuma kwashe rassan da suka bazu.
6 They will all be left to the mountain birds of prey, and to the beasts of the land. The birds will feed on them in summer, and all the wild animals in winter.
Duk za a bar su wa tsuntsayen dutse su ci da kuma namun jeji; tsuntsaye kuma za su ci rani a kansu, namun jeji kuma za su yi damina a kansu.
7 At that time gifts will be brought to the LORD of Hosts— from a people tall and smooth-skinned, from a people widely feared, from a powerful nation of strange speech, whose land is divided by rivers— to Mount Zion, the place of the Name of the LORD of Hosts.
A wannan lokaci za a kawo kyautai wa Ubangiji Maɗaukaki daga dogayen mutane masu sulɓin jiki, daga mutanen da ake jin tsoro a ko’ina, al’umma mai ƙarfin iko na jawabin da ba a saba ji ba, mai ƙasar da koguna suka raba. Za a kawo kyautai zuwa Dutsen Sihiyona, wurin da Sunan Ubangiji Maɗaukaki yake.
