Isaiah 47
1 “Go down and sit in the dust, O Virgin Daughter of Babylon. Sit on the ground without a throne, O Daughter of Chaldea! For you will no longer be called tender or delicate.
“Sọ̀kalẹ̀, jókòó nínú eruku, wúńdíá ọmọbìnrin Babeli; jókòó ní ilẹ̀ láìsí ìtẹ́, ọmọbìnrin àwọn ará Babeli. A kì yóò pè ọ́ ní aláìlókun àti ẹlẹgẹ́ mọ́.
2 Take millstones and grind flour; remove your veil; strip off your skirt, bare your thigh, and wade through the streams.
Mú òkúta-ọlọ kí o sì lọ ìyẹ̀fun; mú ìbòjú rẹ kúrò. Ká aṣọ ẹsẹ̀ rẹ sókè, ká aṣọ itan, kí o sì la odò wọ̀n-ọn-nì kọjá.
3 Your nakedness will be uncovered and your shame will be exposed. I will take vengeance; I will spare no one.”
Ìhòhò rẹ ni a ó sí síta àti ìtìjú rẹ ni a ó ṣí sílẹ̀. Èmi yóò sì gba ẹ̀san, Èmi kì yóò sì dá ẹnìkan sí.”
4 Our Redeemer—the LORD of Hosts is His name— is the Holy One of Israel.
Olùràpadà wa Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ̀ òun ni Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli.
5 “Sit in silence and go into darkness, O Daughter of Chaldea. For you will no longer be called the queen of kingdoms.
“Jókòó ní ìdákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́, lọ sínú òkùnkùn, ọmọbìnrin àwọn ará Babeli; a kì yóò pè ọ́ ní ọbabìnrin àwọn ilẹ̀ ọba mọ́.
6 I was angry with My people; I profaned My heritage, and I placed them under your control. You showed them no mercy; even on the elderly you laid a most heavy yoke.
Inú bí mi sí àwọn ènìyàn mi tí mo sì ba ogún mi jẹ́, mo fi wọ́n lé ọ lọ́wọ́, Ìwọ kò sì síjú àánú wò wọ́n. Lórí àwọn arúgbó pẹ̀lú ní o gbé àjàgà tí ó wúwo lé.
7 You said, ‘I will be queen forever.’ You did not take these things to heart or consider their outcome.
Ìwọ wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò tẹ̀síwájú títí láé— ọbabìnrin ayérayé!’ Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò kíyèsi nǹkan wọ̀nyí tàbí kí o ronú nípa ohun tí ó lè ṣẹlẹ̀.
8 So now hear this, O lover of luxury who sits securely, who says to herself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me. I will never be a widow or know the loss of children.’
“Nísinsin yìí, tẹ́tí sílẹ̀, ìwọ oníwọ̀ra ẹ̀dá tí o kẹ̀tẹ̀ǹfẹ̀ nínú ààbò rẹ tí o sì ń sọ fún ara rẹ pé, ‘Èmi ni, kò sì ṣí ẹlòmíràn lẹ́yìn mi. Èmi kì yóò di opó tàbí kí n pàdánù àwọn ọmọ.’
9 These two things will overtake you in a moment, in a single day: loss of children, and widowhood. They will come upon you in full measure, in spite of your many sorceries and the potency of your spells.
Méjèèjì yìí ni yóò wá sórí rẹ láìpẹ́ jọjọ, ní ọjọ́ kan náà: pípàdánù ọmọ àti dídi opó. Wọn yóò wá sórí rẹ ní ẹ̀kúnrẹ́rẹ́, pẹ̀lúpẹ̀lú àwọn ìṣe oṣó rẹ àti àwọn èpè rẹ tí ko lágbára.
10 You were secure in your wickedness; you said, ‘No one sees me.’ Your wisdom and knowledge led you astray; you told yourself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me.’
Ìwọ ti ní ìgbẹ́kẹ̀lé nínú ìwà ìkà rẹ ó sì ti wí pé, ‘Kò sí ẹni tí ó rí mi?’ Ọgbọ́n àti òye rẹ ti ṣì ọ́ lọ́nà nígbà tí o wí fún ara rẹ pé, ‘Èmi ni, kò sí ẹlòmíràn lẹ́yìn mi.’
11 But disaster will come upon you; you will not know how to charm it away. A calamity will befall you that you will be unable to ward off. Devastation will happen to you suddenly and unexpectedly.
Ìparun yóò dé bá ọ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kì yóò mọ ọ̀nà láti ré e kúrò. Àjálù kan yóò ṣubú lù ọ́ tí o kì yóò le è fi ètùtù ré kúrò; òfò kan tí o kò le faradà ni yóò wá lójijì sí oríì rẹ.
12 So take your stand with your spells and with your many sorceries, with which you have wearied yourself from your youth. Perhaps you will succeed; perhaps you will inspire terror!
“Tẹ̀síwájú nígbà náà, pẹ̀lú àfọ̀ṣẹ rẹ àti pẹ̀lú ìwà oṣó rẹ gbogbo, tí o ti ń ṣiṣẹ́ fún láti ìgbà èwe rẹ wá. Bóyá o le è ṣàṣeyọrí, bóyá o le è dá rúgúdù sílẹ̀.
13 You are wearied by your many counselors; let them come forward now and save you— your astrologers who observe the stars, who monthly predict your fate.
Gbogbo ìmọ̀ràn tí o ti gbà ni ó ti sọ ọ́ di akúrẹtẹ̀! Jẹ́ kí àwọn awòràwọ̀ rẹ bọ́ síwájú, àwọn awòràwọ̀ tí wọ́n sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ láti oṣù dé oṣù, jẹ́ kí wọ́n gbà ọ́ lọ́wọ́ ohun tí ó ń bọ̀ wá bá ọ.
14 Surely they are like stubble; the fire will burn them up. They cannot deliver themselves from the power of the flame. There will be no coals to warm them or fire to sit beside.
Lóòótọ́ wọ́n dàbí ìṣẹ́pẹ́ igi; iná ni yóò jó wọn dànù. Wọn kò kúkú lè gba ara wọn là lọ́wọ́ agbára iná náà. Kò sí èédú láti mú ara ẹnikẹ́ni gbóná níhìn-ín kò sí iná tí ènìyàn le jókòó tì.
15 This is what they are to you— those with whom you have labored and traded from youth— each one strays in his own direction; not one of them can save you.
Gbogbo ohun tí wọ́n lè ṣe fún ọ nìyìí gbogbo èyí ní o tí ṣíṣẹ́ pẹ̀lú u rẹ̀ tí o sì ti ń rù kiri láti ìgbà èwe. Ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan wọn ń lọ nínú àṣìṣe rẹ̀; kò sí ẹyọ ẹnìkan tí ó lè gbà ọ́.
