Isaiah 54
1 Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith Yhwh.
“Kọrin, ìwọ obìnrin àgàn, ìwọ tí kò tí ì bímọ rí; bú sí orin, ẹ hó fún ayọ̀, ẹ̀yin tí kò tí ì rọbí rí; nítorí pé púpọ̀ ni ọmọ àwọn obìnrin ìsọdahoro ju ti ẹni tí ó ní ọkọ,” ni Olúwa wí.
2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;
Fẹ ibi àgọ́ rẹ lójú sí i, fẹ aṣọ àgọ́ rẹ kí ó gbòòrò sí i, má ṣe dá a dúró; sọ okùn rẹ di gígùn, mú òpó rẹ lágbára sí i.
3 For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
Nítorí ìwọ ó fẹ̀ sọ́tùn àti sí òsì; ìrandíran rẹ yóò jogún àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, wọn yóò sì dó sí ahoro àwọn ìlú wọn.
4 Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.
“Má ṣe bẹ̀rù, ìtìjú kò ní ṣubú lù ọ́. Má ṣe bẹ̀rù ìdójútì, a kì yóò kàn ọ́ lábùkù. Ìwọ yóò gbàgbé ìtìjú ìgbà èwe e rẹ, ìwọ kì yóò sì rántí ẹ̀gàn ìgba-opo rẹ mọ́.
5 For thy Maker is thine husband; Yhwh of Armies is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.
Nítorí Ẹlẹ́dàá rẹ ni ọkọ rẹ Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ̀ Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli ni Olùràpadà rẹ; a sì ń pè é ní Ọlọ́run gbogbo ayé.
6 For Yhwh hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God.
Olúwa yóò pè ọ́ padà àfi bí ẹni pé obìnrin tí a kọ̀sílẹ̀ tí a sì bà lọ́kàn jẹ́ obìnrin tí a fẹ́ ní ọ̀dọ́, tí a sì wá jákulẹ̀,” ni Olúwa wí.
7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.
“Fún ìgbà díẹ̀ ni mo kọ̀ ọ́ sílẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n pẹ̀lú ọkàn ìyọ́nú èmi yóò mú ọ padà wá.
8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith Yhwh thy Redeemer.
Ní ríru ìbínú. Mo fi ojú pamọ́ fún ọ fún ìṣẹ́jú kan, ṣùgbọ́n pẹ̀lú àánú àìnípẹ̀kun Èmi yóò síjú àánú wò ọ́,” ni Olúwa Olùdáǹdè rẹ wí.
9 For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
“Sí mi, èyí dàbí i àwọn ọjọ́ Noa, nígbà tí mo búra pé àwọn omi Noa kì yóò tún bo ilẹ̀ ayé mọ́. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni nísinsin yìí mo ti búra láti má ṣe bínú sí ọ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kì yóò bá ọ wí mọ́.
10 For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith Yhwh that hath mercy on thee.
Bí a tilẹ̀ mi àwọn òkè ńlá tí a sì ṣí àwọn òkè kékeré nídìí, síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ ìfẹ́ àìkùnà mi fún ọ kì yóò yẹ̀ láéláé tàbí májẹ̀mú àlàáfíà ni a ó mú kúrò,” ni Olúwa, ẹni tí ó síjú àánú wò ọ́ wí.
11 O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.
Ìwọ ìlú tí a pọ́n lójú, tí ìjì ń gbá kiri tí a kò sì tù nínú, Èmi yóò fi òkúta Tikuosi kọ́ ọ àti ìpìlẹ̀ rẹ pẹ̀lú safire.
12 And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones.
Èmi yóò fi iyùn ṣe odi rẹ, àwọn ẹnu-ọ̀nà ni a ó fi ohun èlò dáradára fún, àti àwọn ògiri rẹ pẹ̀lú òkúta iyebíye.
13 And all thy children shall be taught of Yhwh; and great shall be the peace of thy children.
Gbogbo ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin rẹ ni Olúwa yóò kọ́, àlàáfíà àwọn ọmọ rẹ yóò jẹ́ ńlá àti púpọ̀.
14 In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.
Ní òdodo ni a ó fi ìdí rẹ kalẹ̀ ìwà ipá yóò jìnnà sí ọ o kò ní bẹ̀rù ohunkóhun, ìpayà la ó mú kúrò pátápátá; kò ní súnmọ́ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ.
15 Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.
Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá tilẹ̀ bá ọ jà, kò ní jẹ́ láti ọwọ́ mi; ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá bá ọ jà ni yóò túúbá fún ọ.
16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.
“Kíyèsi i, èmi ni ó dá alágbẹ̀dẹ tí ń fẹ́ iná èédú iná tí ó sì ń mú ohun èlò wá tí ó bá iṣẹ́ rẹ mu. Èmi náà sì ni ẹni tí ó dá apanirun láti ṣe iṣẹ́ ibi;
17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of Yhwh, and their righteousness is of me, saith Yhwh.
kò sí ohun ìjà tí a ṣe sí ọ tí yóò lè ṣe nǹkan, àti gbogbo ahọ́n tí ó dìde sí ọ ní ìdájọ́ ni ìwọ ó dá ní ẹ̀bi. Èyí ni ogún àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Olúwa, èyí sì ni ìdáláre wọn láti ọ̀dọ̀ mi,” ni Olúwa wí.
