Isaiah 57
1 The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart; and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from before the evil.
Olódodo ṣègbé kò sí ẹnìkan tí ó rò ó lọ́kàn ara rẹ̀; a mú àwọn ẹni mímọ́ lọ, kò sì ṣí ẹni tó yé pé a ti mú àwọn olódodo lọ láti yọ wọ́n kúrò nínú ibi.
2 He entereth into peace: they rest in their beds, [each one] that hath walked in his uprightness.
Gbogbo àwọn tí ń rìn déédé ń wọ inú àlàáfíà; wọ́n rí ìsinmi bí wọ́n ti ń sùn nínú ikú.
3 But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the harlot.
“Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ súnmọ́ ìhìn-ín, ẹ̀yin ọmọ aláfọ̀ṣẹ, ẹ̀yin irú-ọmọ panṣágà àti àgbèrè!
4 Against whom do ye sport yourselves? Against whom do ye make a wide mouth, [and] draw out the tongue? Are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,
Ta ni ó fi ń ṣẹlẹ́yà? Ta ni o ń yọ ṣùtì sí tí o sì yọ ahọ́n síta? Ẹ̀yin kì í ha ṣe ọlọ̀tẹ̀ ènìyàn bí, àti ìran àwọn òpùrọ́?
5 inflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clefts of the rocks?
Ẹ gbinájẹ fún ìṣekúṣe láàrín igi óákù àti lábẹ́ gbogbo igi tí ń gbilẹ̀; ẹ fi àwọn ọmọ yín rú ẹbọ nínú kòtò jíjìn àti lábẹ́ àwọn pàlàpálá òkúta.
6 Among the smooth [stones] of the torrent is thy portion; they, they are thy lot: even to them hast thou poured out a drink-offering, thou hast offered an oblation. Shall I be comforted myself as to these things?
Àwọn ère tí ó wà ní àárín òkúta dídán wọ́n n nì, nínú kòtò jíjìn ni ìpín in yín; àwọ̀n ni ìpín in yín. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, sí wọn ni ẹ ti ta ọrẹ ohun mímu yín sílẹ̀ àti láti ta ọrẹ ìyẹ̀fun. Nítorí àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ǹjẹ́ ó yẹ kí n dáwọ́ dúró?
7 Upon a lofty and high mountain hast thou set thy bed: even thither didst thou go up to offer sacrifice.
Ìwọ ti ṣe ibùsùn rẹ lórí òkè gíga tí ó rẹwà; níbẹ̀ ni ẹ lọ láti lọ ṣe ìrúbọ yín.
8 Behind the doors also and the posts hast thou set up thy remembrance: for apart from me, thou hast uncovered thyself, and art gone up; thou hast enlarged thy bed, and hast made agreement with them; thou lovedst their bed, thou sawest their nakedness.
Lẹ́yìn àwọn ìlẹ̀kùn yín àti òpó ìlẹ̀kùn yín níbẹ̀ ni ẹ fi àwọn àmì òrìṣà yín sí. Ní kíkọ̀ mí sílẹ̀, ẹ ṣí ibùsùn yín sílẹ̀, ẹ gun orí rẹ̀ lọ, ẹ sì ṣí i sílẹ̀ gbagada; ẹ ṣe àdéhùn pẹ̀lú àwọn tí ẹ fẹ́ràn ibùsùn wọn, ẹ̀yin sì ń wo ìhòhò wọn.
9 And thou wentest to the king with ointment, and didst multiply thy perfumes, and didst send thy messengers afar off, and didst debase thyself unto Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
Ẹ̀yin lọ sí Moleki pẹ̀lú òróró olifi ẹ sì fi kún òórùn dídùn yín. Ẹ rán ikọ̀ yín lọ jìnnà réré; ẹ sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí ibojì pẹ̀lú! (Sheol h7585)
10 Thou wast wearied by the multitude of thy ways; [but] thou saidst not, It is of no avail. Thou didst find a quickening of thy strength; therefore thou wast not sick [of it].
Àwọn ọ̀nà yín gbogbo ti mú àárẹ̀ ba á yín, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ kò ní sọ pé, ‘Kò sí ìrètí mọ́?’ Ẹ rí okun kún agbára yín, nípa bẹ́ẹ̀ òòyì kò kọ́ ọ yín.
11 And of whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast lied, and hast not remembered me, nor taken it to heart? Have not I even of long time held my peace, and thou fearest me not?
“Ta ni ó ń pá yín láyà tí ń bà yín lẹ́rù tí ẹ fi ń ṣèké sí mi, àti tí ẹ̀yin kò fi rántí mi tàbí kí ẹ rò yí nínú ọkàn yín? Ǹjẹ́ kì í ṣe nítorí dídákẹ́ jẹ́ẹ́ mi fún ìgbà pípẹ́ tí ẹ̀yin kò fi bẹ̀rù mi?
12 I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; and they shall not profit thee.
Èmi yóò ṣí òdodo yín páyà àti iṣẹ́ yín, wọn kì yóò sì ṣe yín ní àǹfààní.
13 When thou criest, let them that are gathered by thee deliver thee! But a wind shall carry them all away, a breath shall take them; but he that putteth his trust in me shall inherit the land, and possess my holy mountain.

14 And it shall be said, Cast up, cast up, prepare the way, take up the stumbling-blocks out of the way of my people.
A ó sì sọ wí pé: “Tún mọ, tún mọ, tún ọ̀nà náà ṣe! Ẹ mú àwọn ohun ìkọ̀sẹ̀ kúrò ní ọ̀nà àwọn ènìyàn mi.”
15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, and whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy [place], and with him that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Nítorí èyí ni ohun tí Ẹni gíga àti ọlọ́lá jùlọ wí ẹni tí ó wà títí láé, tí orúkọ rẹ̀ jẹ́ mímọ́: “Mo ń gbé ní ibi gíga àti ibi mímọ́, ṣùgbọ́n pẹ̀lú ẹni n nì tí ó ní ìròbìnújẹ́ àti ẹ̀mí ìrẹ̀lẹ̀, láti sọ ẹ̀mí onírẹ̀lẹ̀ náà jí àti láti sọ ẹ̀mí oníròbìnújẹ́ n nì jí.
16 For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth; for the spirit would fail before me, and the souls [which] I have made.

17 For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and smote him; I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on backslidingly in the way of his heart.
Inú bí mi nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ọ̀kánjúwà rẹ̀; mo fìyà jẹ ẹ́, mo sì fojú mi pamọ́ ní ìbínú; síbẹ̀, ó tẹ̀síwájú nínú tinú-mi-ni n ó ṣe ọ̀nà rẹ̀.
18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him; and I will lead him, and will restore comforts unto him and to those of his that mourn.
Èmi ti rí ọ̀nà rẹ̀ gbogbo, ṣùgbọ́n Èmi yóò wò ó sàn; Èmi yóò tọ́ ọ ṣọ́nà n ó sì mú ìtùnú tọ̀ ọ́ wá,
19 I create the fruit of the lips: peace, peace to him [that is] afar off, and to him [that is] nigh, saith Jehovah; and I will heal him.

20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea, which cannot rest, and whose waters cast up mire and dirt.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ìkà dàbí i ríru Òkun tí kò le è sinmi, tí ìgbì rẹ̀ ń rú pẹ̀tẹ̀pẹ́tẹ̀ àti ẹrọ̀fọ̀ sókè.
21 There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.
“Kò sí àlàáfíà fún àwọn ìkà,” ni Ọlọ́run mi wí.
