< Isaiah 1 >

1 THE VISION of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
Ìran sí Juda àti Jerusalẹmu èyí tí Isaiah ọmọ Amosi rí ní àsìkò ìjọba Ussiah, Jotamu, Ahasi àti Hesekiah àwọn ọba Juda.
2 Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth, for the LORD hath spoken: Children I have reared, and brought up, and they have rebelled against Me.
Gbọ́ ẹ̀yin ọ̀run! Fi etí sílẹ̀, ìwọ ayé! Nítorí Olúwa ti sọ̀rọ̀: “Mo tọ́ àwọn ọmọ dàgbà, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n ti ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí mi.
3 The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib; but Israel doth not know, My people doth not consider.
Màlúù mọ olówó rẹ̀, kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ sì mọ ibùjẹ olówó rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Israẹli kò mọ̀, òye kò yé àwọn ènìyàn mi.”
4 Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evil-doers, children that deal corruptly; they have forsaken the LORD, they have contemned the Holy One of Israel, they are turned away backward.
Á à! Orílẹ̀-èdè ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀, àwọn ènìyàn tí ẹ̀bi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ń pa lẹ́rù, ìran àwọn aṣebi, àwọn ọmọ tó ti di aṣèbàjẹ́! Wọn ti kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀ wọn ti gan Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli, wọn sì ti kẹ̀yìn sí i.
5 On what part will ye yet be stricken, seeing ye stray away more and more? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint;
Èéṣe tí a ó fi tún lù yín mọ́? Èéṣe tí ẹ ò dẹ́kun ọ̀tẹ̀ ṣíṣe? Gbogbo orí yín jẹ́ kìkì ọgbẹ́, gbogbo ọkàn yín sì ti pòruurù.
6 From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and festering sores: they have not been pressed, neither bound up, neither mollified with oil.
Láti àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ yín dé àtàrí yín kò sí àlàáfíà rárá, àyàfi ọgbẹ́ òun ìfarapa àti ojú egbò, tí a kò nù kúrò tàbí kí á dì tàbí kí a kùn ún ní òróró.
7 Your country is desolate; your cities are burned with fire; your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by floods.
Orílẹ̀-èdè yín dahoro, a dáná sun àwọn ìlú yín, oko yín ni àwọn àjèjì ti jẹ run lójú ara yín náà, ni gbogbo rẹ̀ ṣòfò bí èyí tí àwọn àjèjì borí rẹ̀.
8 And the daughter of Zion is left as a booth in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.
Ọmọbìnrin Sioni ni a fi sílẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àtíbàbà nínú ọgbà àjàrà, gẹ́gẹ́ bí abà nínú oko ẹ̀gúnsí, àti bí ìlú tí a dó tì.
9 Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, we should have been like unto Gomorrah.
Àyàfi bí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun bá ṣẹ́ díẹ̀ kù fún wà, a ò bá ti rí bí Sodomu, a ò bá sì ti dàbí Gomorra.
10 Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.
Gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, ẹ̀yin aláṣẹ Sodomu, tẹ́tí sí òfin Ọlọ́run wa, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn Gomorra!
11 To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices unto Me? saith the LORD; I am full of the burnt-offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he-goats.
“Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ẹbọ yín kín ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ẹbọ yín jásí fún mi?” ni Olúwa wí. “Mo ti ní ànító àti àníṣẹ́kù ẹbọ sísun ti àgbò àti ọ̀rá ẹran àbọ́pa, Èmi kò ní inú dídùn nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ akọ màlúù, ti àgùntàn àti ti òbúkọ.
12 When ye come to appear before Me, who hath required this at your hand, to trample My courts?
Nígbà tí ẹ wá farahàn níwájú mi, ta ni ó béèrè èyí lọ́wọ́ yín, gìrì gìrì ẹsẹ̀ nínú àgbàlá mi?
13 Bring no more vain oblations; it is an offering of abomination unto Me; new moon and sabbath, the holding of convocations — I cannot endure iniquity along with the solemn assembly.
Ẹ má mú ọrẹ asán wá mọ́! Ìríra ni tùràrí yín jásí fún mi, oṣù tuntun àti ọjọ́ ìsinmi àti àwọn àpéjọ, Èmi kò lè faradà á, ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni àpéjọ yín wọ̀nyí.
14 Your new moons and your appointed seasons My soul hateth; they are a burden unto Me; I am weary to bear them.
Ayẹyẹ oṣù tuntun yín àti àjọ̀dún tí a yàn, ni ọkàn mi kórìíra. Wọ́n ti di àjàgà sí mi ní ọrùn, Ó sú mi láti fi ara dà wọ́n.
15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide Mine eyes from you; yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear; your hands are full of blood.
Nígbà tí ẹ bá tẹ́ ọwọ́ yín sókè ni àdúrà, Èmi yóò fi ojú mi pamọ́ fún un yín, kódà bí ẹ bá gba ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àdúrà, Èmi kò ni tẹ́tí sí i. “Ọwọ́ yín kún fún ẹ̀jẹ̀.
16 Wash you, make you clean, put away the evil of your doings from before Mine eyes, cease to do evil;
“Wẹ̀ kí ẹ sì jẹ́ kí ara yín mọ́. Ẹ mú ìwà ibi yín kúrò níwájú mi! Dáwọ́ àìṣedéédéé dúró,
17 Learn to do well; seek justice, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
kọ́ láti ṣe rere! Wá ìdájọ́ òtítọ́, tu àwọn tí a ń pọ́n lójú nínú. Ṣàtìlẹyìn fún ẹ̀tọ́ aláìní baba, gbà ẹjọ́ opó rò.
18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD; though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
“Ẹ wá ní ìsinsin yìí, ẹ jẹ́ kí a jọ ṣàṣàrò,” ni Olúwa wí. “Bí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín bá rí bí osùn, wọn ó sì funfun bí i yìnyín, bí wọn bá sì pọ́n bí ẹ̀jẹ̀, wọn ó sì dàbí ẹ̀gbọ̀n òwú.
19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land;
Tí ẹ̀yin bá fẹ́, tí ẹ sì gbọ́rọ̀, ẹ̀yin yóò sì jẹ ojúlówó adùn ilẹ̀ náà.
20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword; for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken.
Ṣùgbọ́n tí ẹ bá kọ̀ tí ẹ sì ṣọ̀tẹ̀, idà ni a ó fi pa yín run.” Nítorí ẹnu Olúwa la ti sọ ọ́.
21 How is the faithful city become a harlot! She that was full of justice, righteousness lodged in her, but now murderers.
Wo bí ìlú òtítọ́ ṣe di àgbèrè! Ó ti kún fún ìdájọ́ òtítọ́ nígbà kan rí, òdodo ń gbé ibẹ̀ tẹ́lẹ̀ rí, ṣùgbọ́n báyìí àwọn apànìyàn!
22 Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water.
Fàdákà rẹ ti di ìpẹ́pẹ́, ààyò wáìnì rẹ la ti bu omi là.
23 Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves; every one loveth bribes, and followeth after rewards; they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.
Ọlọ̀tẹ̀ ni àwọn aláṣẹ yín, akẹgbẹ́ àwọn olè, gbogbo wọn ló fẹ́ràn àbẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọ́n sì ń wá ẹ̀bùn kiri. Wọ́n kì í ṣàtìlẹyìn fún ẹ̀tọ́ aláìní baba, ẹjọ́ opó kì í sì í dé iwájú wọn.
24 Therefore saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel: Ah, I will ease Me of Mine adversaries, and avenge Me of Mine enemies;
Nítorí náà ni Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, alágbára kan ṣoṣo tí Israẹli sọ wí pé: “Á à! Èmi yóò ní ìfọ̀kànbalẹ̀ lórí àwọn ọ̀tá mi n ó sì gbẹ̀san lára àwọn ọ̀tá mi.
25 And I will turn My hand upon thee, and purge away thy dross as with lye, and will take away all thine alloy;
Èmi yóò pa ọwọ́ mi dà sí ọ, èmi ó sì ku ìpẹ́pẹ́ rẹ dànù, n ó sì mú gbogbo ìdọ̀tí rẹ kúrò.
26 And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning; afterward thou shalt be called The city of righteousness, the faithful city.
Èmi yóò mú àwọn adájọ́ rẹ bọ̀ sí ipò gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti àtijọ́, àti àwọn olùdámọ̀ràn rẹ̀ bí i ti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ pẹ̀pẹ̀. Lẹ́yìn náà ni a ó pè ọ ní ìlú òdodo, ìlú òtítọ́.”
27 Zion shall be redeemed with justice, and they that return of her with righteousness.
A ó fi ìdájọ́ òtítọ́ ra Sioni padà, àti àwọn tí ó ronúpìwàdà pẹ̀lú òdodo.
28 But the destruction of the transgressors and the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọlọ̀tẹ̀ àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ni a ó parun. Àwọn tí ó bá sì kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀ ni yóò ṣègbé.
29 For they shall be ashamed of the terebinths which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.
“Ojú yóò tì yín nítorí igi óákù mímọ́ èyí tí ẹ ní inú dídùn sí, a ó kàn yín lábùkù nítorí àwọn ọgbà yìí tí ẹ ti yàn fúnra yín.
30 For ye shall be as a terebinth whose leaf fadeth, and as a garden that hath no water.
Ẹ ó sì dàbí igi óákù tí ewé rẹ̀ ti rọ, bí ọgbà tí kò ní omi.
31 And the strong shall be as tow, and his work as a spark; and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.
Alágbára ọkùnrin náà yóò sì dàbí ohun ìdáná, iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ bí ẹ̀ṣẹ́-iná, àwọn méjèèjì ni yóò jóná papọ̀, láìsí ẹni tí yóò lè pa iná yìí.”
