< Isaiah 44 >
1 And now, listen, Jacob, my servant, and Israel, whom I have chosen.
“Amma yanzu ka saurara, ya Yaƙub, bawana, Isra’ila, wanda zaɓa.
2 Thus says the Lord, who made and formed you, your Helper from the womb: Do not be afraid, Jacob, my servant and my most righteous, whom I have chosen.
Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, shi wanda ya yi ka, wanda ya siffanta ka a cikin mahaifa, wanda kuma zai taimake ka. Kada ka ji tsoro, ya Yaƙub, bawana, Yeshurun, wanda na zaɓa.
3 For I will pour out waters upon the thirsty ground, and rivers upon the dry land. I will pour out my Spirit upon your offspring, and my benediction upon your stock.
Gama zan zuba ruwa a ƙeƙasasshiyar ƙasa, rafuffuka kuma a busasshiyar ƙasa; zan ba da Ruhuna ga’ya’yanka, albarkata kuma ga zuriyarka.
4 And they will spring up among the plants, like willows beside running waters.
Za su tsiro kamar ciyawa a wuriyar ruwa, kamar kurmi kusa da rafuffuka masu gudu.
5 This one will say, “I am the Lord’s,” and that one will call himself by the name of Jacob, and yet another will write with his hand, “For the Lord,” and he will take the name Israel.
Wani zai ce, ‘Ni na Ubangiji ne’; wani kuma zai kira kansa da sunan Yaƙub; har yanzu wani zai rubuta a hannunsa, ‘Na Ubangiji,’ ya kuma ɗauki sunan Isra’ila.
6 Thus says the Lord, the King and Redeemer of Israel, the Lord of hosts: I am the first, and I am the last, and there is no God apart from me.
“Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, Sarki da kuma Mai Fansar Isra’ila, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki. Ni ne farko ni ne kuma ƙarshe; in ban da ni babu wani Allah.
7 Who is like me? Let him call out and announce it. And let him explain to me the order of things, since it is I who appointed the ancient people. The things of the near and the distant future, let him announce them.
Wane ne kuwa kama da ni? Ya faɗa a ji. Bari yă yi shela ya kuma nuna shi a gabana mene ne ya faru tun da na kafa mutanena na dā, mene ne kuma bai riga ya faru ba, I, bari yă faɗa abin da zai zo.
8 Do not be afraid, and do not be disturbed. From the time when I caused you to listen, I also announced it. You are my witnesses. Is there another God beside me, also a Maker, whom I have not known?
Kada ku firgita kada kuma ku ji tsoro. Ban furta wannan na kuma yi faɗar haka tuntuni ba? Ku ne shaiduna. Akwai wani Allah in ban da ni? A’a, babu wani Dutse; ban san da wani ba.”
9 All of those who create idols are nothing, and their most beloved things will not benefit them. These are their witnesses, for they do not see, and they do not understand, so that they might be confounded.
Duk masu yin gumaka ba kome ba ne, da kuma abubuwan da suke ɗauka da daraja banza ne. Waɗanda za su yi magana a madadinsu makafi ne; jahilai ne, marasa kunya.
10 Who has formed a god or cast a molten image, which is useful for nothing?
Waɗanda suke siffanta allah su kuma yi zubin gunki, waɗanda ba za su yi musu ribar kome ba?
11 Behold, all those who partake in this will be confounded. For these makers are men. They will all assemble together. They will stand and be terrified. And they will be confounded together.
Shi da irinsa za su sha kunya; masu sassaƙa ba kome ba mutane ne kurum. Bari su tattaru su ɗauki matsayinsu; za su firgita su kuma sha mummunan kunya.
12 The maker of iron has wrought with his file. With coals and hammers, he has formed it, and he has wrought with the strength of his arm. He will hunger and grow faint. He will not drink water, and he will become weary.
Maƙeri yakan ɗauki kayan aiki ya yi aiki da shi a cikin garwashi; ya ƙera gunki da guduma, ya gyara shi da hannuwansa masu ƙarfi. Yakan ji yunwa ya kuma rasa ƙarfi; yakan sha ruwa ya kuma ji gajiya.
13 The maker of wood has extended his ruler. He has formed it with a plane. He has made it with corners, and he has smoothed its curves. And he has made the image of a man, a seemingly beautiful man, dwelling in a house.
Kafinta yakan gwada katako yă kuma zāna siffar da alli; yă goge shi da kayan aiki yă kuma zāna shi da alƙalami. Yă siffanta shi a kamannin mutum, mutum cikin dukan darajarsa, don yă ajiye shi a cikin masujada.
14 He has cut down cedars; he has taken the evergreen oak, and the oak that stood among the trees of the forest. He has planted the pine tree, which the rain has nourished.
Yakan ka da itacen saifires, ko kuwa ya ɗauki saifires ko oak. Yă bar shi yă yi girma a cikin itatuwan kurmi, ko yă shuka itacen fir, ruwan sama kuma yă sa yă yi girma.
15 And it is used by men for fuel. He took from it and warmed himself. And he set it on fire and baked bread. But from the remainder, he made a god, and he adored it. He made an idol, and he bowed down before it.
Abin hura wutar mutum ne; yakan ɗebi waɗansu yă hura wuta don yă ji ɗumi, ya hura wuta yă gasa burodi. Amma yakan ƙera zinariya yă kuma yi masa sujada; yakan yi gunki sa’an nan yă rusuna masa.
16 Part of it, he burned with fire, and with part of it, he cooked meat; he boiled food and was filled. And he was warmed, and so he said: “Ah, I am warm. I have gazed at the fire.”
Rabin katakon yakan ƙone a wuta; a kansa yakan dafa abincinsa, yă gasa namansa yă kuma ci sai ya ƙoshi. Yakan ji ɗumi yă kuma ce, “Aha! Na ji ɗumi; na gan wutar.”
17 But from its remainder, he made a god and a graven image for himself. He bowed down before it, and he adored it, and he prayed to it, saying: “Free me! For you are my god.”
Da sauran itacen yakan yi allah, gunkinsa; yă rusuna masa yă kuma yi sujada. Yakan yi masa addu’a yă ce, “Ka cece ni; kai ne allahna.”
18 They have neither known nor understood. For their eyes are obscured, lest they see with their eyes and understand with their heart.
Ba su san kome ba, ba su fahimci kome ba; an rufe idanunsu don kada su gani, tunaninsu kuma a rufe don kada su fahimta.
19 They do not consider in their mind, nor do they know, nor do they think to say: “I have burned part of it in the fire, and I have baked bread upon its coals. I have cooked flesh and I have eaten. And from its remainder, should I make an idol? Should I fall prostrate before the trunk of a tree?”
Ba wanda yakan dakata ya yi tunani, ba wanda yake da sani ko fahimi ya ce, “Da rabinsa na yi amfani da shi don hura wuta; na ma gasa burodi a kan garwashinsa, na gasa nama na kuma ci. Ya kamata in yi abin ƙyama daga abin da ya rage? Ya kamata in rusuna wa guntun katako?”
20 Part of it is ashes. His foolish heart adores it. And he will not liberate his soul, and he will not say, “Perhaps there is a lie in my right hand.”
Yana cin toka, zuciyar da ta ruɗe tana ɓad da shi; ba zai iya cece kansa ba, ko ya ce, “Wannan abin da yake hannun dama na ba ƙarya ba ne?”
21 Remember these things, O Jacob, O Israel. For you are my servant. I have formed you. You are my servant, Israel. Do not forget me.
“Tuna da waɗannan abubuwa, ya Yaƙub, gama kai bawana ne, ya Isra’ila. Na yi ka, kai bawana ne; Ya Isra’ila, ba zan manta da kai ba.
22 I have wiped away your iniquities like a cloud, and your sins like a mist. Return to me, because I have redeemed you.
Na shafe laifofinka kamar girgije, zunubanka kamar hazon safe. Ka komo wurina, gama na kuɓutar da kai.”
23 Give praise, O heavens! For the Lord has shown mercy. Shout with joy, O ends of the earth! Let the mountains resound with praise, with the forest and all its trees. For the Lord has redeemed Jacob, and Israel will be glorified.
Ku rera don farin ciki, ya sammai, gama Ubangiji ya aikata wannan; ku yi sowa, ya duniya a ƙarƙashi. Ku ɓarke da waƙoƙi, ku duwatsu, ku jeji da dukan itatuwanku, gama Ubangiji ya kuɓutar da Yaƙub, ya nuna ɗaukakarsa a cikin Isra’ila.
24 Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, and your Maker from the womb: I am the Lord, who makes all things, who alone extends the heavens, who makes the earth firm. And there is no one with me.
“Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, Mai Fansarka, wanda ya yi ka a cikin mahaifa. “Ni ne Ubangiji, wanda ya yi dukan abubuwa, wanda ya shimfiɗa sammai ya kuma kafa harsashen duniya da kansa,
25 I make the signs of the diviners useless, and I turn the seers to madness. I turn the wise backwards, and make their knowledge into foolishness.
wanda ya sassāke alamun annabawan ƙarya ya masu duba suka zama wawaye, wanda ya tumɓuke koyon masu hikima ya mai da shi banza,
26 I lift up the word of my servant, and I fulfill the counsel of my messengers. I say to Jerusalem, “You shall be inhabited,” and to the cities of Judah, “You shall be rebuilt,” and I will lift up its deserts.
wanda ya tabbatar da maganganun bayinsa ya kuma cika annabce-annabcen’yan aikansa, “wanda ya ce game da Urushalima, ‘Za a zauna a cikinta,’ game da garuruwan Yahuda, ‘Za a gina su,’
27 I say to the depths, “Be desolate,” and, “I will dry up your rivers.”
wanda ya ce wa zurfin ruwaye, ‘Ku bushe, zan kuma busar da rafuffukanku,’
28 I say to Cyrus, “You are my shepherd, and you will accomplish all that I will.” I say to Jerusalem, “You shall be built,” and to the Temple, “Your foundations shall be laid.”
wanda ya yi zancen Sairus ya ce, ‘Shi ne makiyayina zan kuma cika dukan abin da na gan dama; zai yi zancen Urushalima cewa, “Bari a sāke gina ta,” game da haikali kuma cewa, “Bari a kafa harsashinsa.”’
