Isaiah 50
1 This is what the Lord says: Where's your mother's divorce certificate I gave her when I sent her away? Which of my creditors did I sell you to? Now look! You were sold because of your sins, and your mother was sent away because of your wrongdoing.
Ohun tí Olúwa wí nìyìí: “Níbo ni ìwé-ẹ̀rí ìkọ̀sílẹ̀ ìyá rẹ wà èyí tí mo fi lé e lọ? Tàbí èwo nínú àwọn olùyánilówó mi ni mo tà ọ́ fún? Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ ni a fi tà ọ́; nítorí àìṣedéédéé rẹ ni a fi lé ìyá rẹ lọ.
2 When I came, why wasn't anyone there? When I called, why didn't anyone answer? Is it because I don't have the strength to save you, or the power to rescue you? Can't you see that if I order it, the sea will dry up? I can turn rivers into a desert. Their fish stink because they've died of thirst since there's no water.
Nígbà tí mo wá, èéṣe tí a kò fi rí ẹnìkan? Nígbà tí mo pè, èéṣe tí kò fi sí ẹnìkan láti dáhùn? Ọwọ́ mi a kúrú láti gbà ọ́? Èmi kò ha ní agbára láti gbà ọ́ bí? Nípa ìbáwí lásán, Èmi gbẹ omi òkun, Èmi yí àwọn odò sí aṣálẹ̀; àwọn ẹja wọn rà fún àìsí omi wọ́n sì kú fún òǹgbẹ.
3 I can make the heavens go dark, covering them with sackcloth like they're in mourning.
Èmi fi òkùnkùn bo sánmọ̀ mo sì fi aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ ṣe ìbòrí rẹ̀.”
4 The Lord God has given me the ability to teach others, to know how to encourage those who are exhausted with a word. He wakes me up every morning; he helps me listen as a disciple.
Olúwa Olódùmarè ti fún mi ni ahọ́n tí a fi iṣẹ́ rán, láti mọ àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ tí ó lè gbé àwọn aláàárẹ̀ ró. O jí mi láràárọ̀, o jí etí mi láti gbọ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹni tí à ń kọ́.
5 The Lord God has instructed me, and I haven't been rebellious and I haven't turned away.
Olúwa Olódùmarè ti ṣí mi ní etí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kò ṣọ̀tẹ̀ rí; Èmi kò sì padà sẹ́yìn.
6 I offered my back for people to beat me and my cheeks for people to pull my beard. I didn't hide my face from their mocking and spitting.
Mo ṣí ẹ̀yìn mi sílẹ̀ fún àwọn tí ó ń nà mí, àti ẹ̀rẹ̀kẹ́ mi fún àwọn tí ń fa irùngbọ̀n mi; Èmi kò fi ojú mi pamọ́ kúrò lọ́wọ́ ẹlẹ́yà àti ìyọṣùtì sí.
7 The Lord God helps me, so I haven't been disgraced. That's why I'm so determined, setting my face hard as stone, knowing I won't be humiliated.
Nítorí Olúwa Olódùmarè ràn mí lọ́wọ́, a kì yóò dójútì mí. Nítorí náà ni mo ṣe gbé ojú mi ró bí òkúta akọ èmi sì mọ pé, ojú kò ní tì mí.
8 The one who vindicates me is close by, so who will bring charges against me? Let's stand to oppose one another! Come on, anyone who wants to accuse me!
Ẹni tí ó dá mi láre wà nítòsí. Ta ni ẹni náà tí yóò fẹ̀sùn kàn mí? Jẹ́ kí a kojú ara wa! Ta ni olùfisùn mi? Jẹ́ kí ó kò mí lójú!
9 The Lord God defends me. Who is going to declare me guilty? Look! Those who try will fall apart like old clothing, eaten up by moths.
Olúwa Olódùmarè ni ó ń ràn mí lọ́wọ́. Ta ni ẹni náà tí yóò dá mi lẹ́bi? Gbogbo wọn yóò gbó bí aṣọ; kòkòrò ni yóò sì jẹ wọn run.
10 Who among you respects the Lord and obeys what his servant says? Who among you walks in darkness and doesn't have light? Let them trust in the Lord and put their confidence in God.
Ta ni nínú yín tí ó bẹ̀rù Olúwa tí ó sì ń gbọ́rọ̀ sí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ lẹ́nu? Jẹ́ kí ẹni tí ń rìn ní òkùnkùn tí kò ní ìmọ́lẹ̀, kí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé orúkọ Olúwa kí o sì gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Ọlọ́run rẹ̀.
11 Beware all you who start a fire, who pick up blazing torches! Go ahead, walk in the light of your own fire and of the torches you yourselves have set alight! This is what you will receive from me: You are going to lie down in a place of suffering.
Ṣùgbọ́n ní àkókò yìí, gbogbo ẹ̀yin ti ń tanná tí ẹ sì ń fi pèsè iná ìléwọ́ fún ara yín, ẹ lọ, kí ẹ sì máa rìn nínú ìmọ́lẹ̀ iná yín, àti nínú ẹta iná tí ẹ ti dá. Èyí ni yóò jẹ́ tiyín láti ọwọ́ mi wá. Ẹ̀yin ó dùbúlẹ̀ nínú ìrora.
