< Isaiah 47 >
1 Come down, sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne for the daughter of the Chaldeans, for thou shalt no more be called delicate and tender.
“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 a millstone and grind meal: uncover thy shame, strip thy shoulder, make bare thy legs, pass over the rivers.
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 Thy nakedness shall be discovered, and thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and no man shall resist me.
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, the Holy One of Israel.
Olùràpadà wa Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ̀ òun ni Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli.
5 Sit thou silent, and get thee into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called the lady 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 have polluted my inheritance, and have given them into thy bend: thou hast shewn no mercy to them: upon the ancient thou hast laid thy yoke exceeding heavy.
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 And thou hast said: I shall be a lady for ever: thou hast not laid these things to thy heart, neither hast thou remembered thy latter end.
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 And now hear these things, thou that art delicate, and dwellest confidently, that sayest in thy heart: I am, and there is none else besides me: I shall not sit as a widow, and I shall not know barrenness.
“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 shall come upon thee suddenly in one day, barrenness and widowhood. All things are come upon thee, because of the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great hardness of thy enchanters.
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 And thou best trusted in thy wickedness, and hast said: There is none that seeth me. Thy wisdom, and thy knowledge, this hath deceived thee. And thou best said in thy heart: I am, and besides me there is no other.
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 Evil shall come upon thee, and then shalt not know the rising thereof: and calamity shall fall violently upon thee, which thou canst not keep off: misery shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know.
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 Stand now with thy enchanters, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, in which thou hast laboured from thy youth, if so be it may profit thee any thing, or if thou mayst become stronger.
“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 Thou hast failed in the multitude or thy counsels: let now the astrologers stand and save thee, they that gazed at the stars, and counted the months, that from them they might tell the things that shall come to thee.
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 Behold they are as stubble, fire hath burnt them, they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the dames: there are no coals wherewith they may be warmed, nor fire, that they may sit thereat.
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 Such are all the things become to thee, in which thou best laboured: thy merchants from thy youth, every one hath erred in his own way, there is none that can save thee.
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.
