Isaiah 47
1 Come and take your seat in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon; come down from your seat of power, and take your place on the earth, O daughter of the Chaldaeans: for you will never again seem soft and delicate.
“Ki gangara, ki zauna a ƙura, Budurwa Diyar Babilon; ki zauna a ƙasa ba tare da rawani ba, Diyar Babiloniyawa. Ba za a ƙara kira ke marar ƙarfi’yar gata ba.
2 Take the crushing-stones and get the meal crushed: take off your veil, put away your robe, let your legs be uncovered, go through the rivers.
Ɗauki dutsen niƙa ki niƙa gari; ki kware lulluɓinki. Ki ɗaga fatarinki ki bar ƙafafunki tsirara, ki kuma yi ta ratsa cikin rafuffuka.
3 The shame of your unclothed condition will be seen by all: I will give punishment without mercy,
Tsirararki zai bayyana za a kuma buɗe kunyarki. Zan ɗauki fansa; ba zan bar wani ba.”
4 Says the Lord who takes up our cause; the Lord of armies is his name, the Holy One of Israel.
Mai Fansarmu, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki shi ne sunansa, shi ne Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila.
5 Be seated in the dark without a word, O daughter of the Chaldaeans: for you will no longer be named, The Queen of Kingdoms.
“Zauna shiru, tafi cikin duhu, Diyar Babiloniya; ba za a ƙara kira ke sarauniyar masarautai.
6 I was angry with my people, I put shame on my heritage, and gave them into your hands: you had no mercy on them; you put a cruel yoke on those who were old;
Na yi fushi da mutanena na ƙazantar da gādona; na ba su ga hannunki, ba ki kuwa nuna musu jinƙai ba. Har ma da tsofaffi kin jibga musu kaya masu nauyi sosai.
7 And you said, I will be a queen for ever: you did not give attention to these things, and did not keep in mind what would come after.
Kika ce, ‘Zan ci gaba har abada, madawwamiyar sarauniya!’ Amma ba ki lura da waɗannan abubuwa ko ki yi la’akari a kan abin da zai faru ba.
8 So now take note of this, you who are given up to pleasure, living without fear of evil, saying in your heart, I am, and there is no one like me; I will never be a widow, or have my children taken from me.
“To, yanzu fa, ki kasa kunne, ke mai ƙaunar nishaɗi, mai zama da rai kwance kina kuma ce wa kanki, ‘Ni ce, kuma babu wani in ban da ni. Ba zan taɓa zama gwauruwa ko in sha wahalar rashin’ya’ya ba.’
9 But these two things will come on you suddenly in one day, the loss of children and of husband: in full measure they will come on you, for all your secret arts, and all your wonders.
Duk waɗannan za su sha kanki cikin farat ɗaya, a rana guda, rashin’ya’ya da gwauranci. Za su zo a kanki da cikakken minzani, duk da yawan masu dubanki da kuma dukan sihirinki.
10 For you had faith in your evil-doing; you said, No one sees me; by your wisdom and knowledge you have been turned out of the way: and you have said in your heart, I am, and there is no other.
Kin dogara a muguntarki kika kuma ce, ‘Babu wanda ya gan ni.’ Hikimarki da saninki sun ɓad da ke sa’ad da kika ce wa kanki, ‘Ni ce, kuma babu wani in ban da ni.’
11 Because of this evil will come on you, which may not be turned away for any price: and trouble will overtake you, from which no money will give salvation: destruction will come on you suddenly, without your knowledge.
Bala’i zai fāɗo a kanki, kuma ba za ki san yadda za ki rinjaye shi yă janye ba. Masifa za tă fāɗo a kanki da ba za ki iya tsai da ita da kuɗin fansa ba; lalacewar da ba ki taɓa mafarkinta ba za tă auko miki nan da nan.
12 Go on now with your secret arts, and all your wonder-working, to which you have given yourself up from your earliest days; it may be that they will be of profit to you, or by them you may put fear into your attackers.
“Ki dai ci gaba, da sihirinki da kuma makarunki masu yawa, waɗanda kika yi ta wahala tun kina jaririya. Mai yiwuwa ki yi nasara, mai yiwuwa ki jawo fargaba.
13 But your mind is troubled by the number of your guides: let them now come forward for your salvation: the measurers of the heavens, the watchers of the stars, and those who are able to say from month to month what things are coming on you.
Dukan shawarwarin da kika samu sun dai gajiyar da ke ne kawai! Bari masananki na taurari su zo gaba, waɗannan masu zāna taswirar sammai suna kuma faɗa miki dukan abin da zai faru da ke wata-wata, bari su cece ki daga abin da zai faru da ke.
14 Truly, they have become like dry stems, they have been burned in the fire; they are not able to keep themselves safe from the power of the flame: it is not a coal for warming them, or a fire by which a man may be seated.
Tabbas suna kama da bunnu; wuta za tă cinye su ƙaf. Ba za su ma iya ceton kansu daga ikon wutar ba. Ba wutar da wani zai ji ɗumi; ba wutar da za a zauna kusa da ita.
15 Small profit have you had from those who, from your earliest days, got great profit out of you; they have gone in flight, every one straight before him, and you have no saviour.
Abin da za su iya yi miki ke nan kawai, waɗannan da kika yi ta fama da su kika kuma yi ciniki da su tun kina jaririya. Kowannensu zai tafi cikin kuskurensa; babu ko ɗayan da zai cece ki.
