< Esias 48 >
1 Hear these [words], you house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and have come forth out of Juda, who swear by the name of the Lord God of Israel, making mention [of it, but] not with truth, nor with righteousness;
“Tẹ́tí sí èyí, ìwọ ilé e Jakọbu, ìwọ tí a ń pè pẹ̀lú orúkọ Israẹli tí o sì wá láti ẹ̀ka Juda, ìwọ tí ò ń búra ní orúkọ Olúwa tí o sì ń pe Ọlọ́run Israẹli ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe ní òtítọ́ àti òdodo,
2 maintaining also the name of the holy city, and staying themselves on the God of Israel: the Lord of hosts is his name. The former things I have already declared;
ìwọ tí ò ń pe ara rẹ ní ọmọ ìlú mímọ́ n nì tí o sì gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Ọlọ́run Israẹli— Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ̀.
3 and they that have proceeded out of my mouth, and it became well known; I wrought suddenly, and [the events] came to pass.
Èmi sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ àwọn nǹkan ti tẹ́lẹ̀ lọ́jọ́ tó ti pẹ́, ẹnu mi ló ti kéde wọn, mo sì sọ wọ́n di mí mọ̀; lẹ́yìn náà lójijì mo gbé ìgbésẹ̀, wọ́n sì wá sí ìmúṣẹ.
4 I know that you are stubborn, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your forehead brazen.
Nítorí mo mọ bí ẹ ti jẹ́ olórí kunkun tó; àwọn iṣan ọrùn yín sì jẹ́ irin; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni iwájú yín idẹ ni.
5 And I told you of old what [should be] before it came upon you; I made it known to you, lest you should say, [My] idols have done [it] for me; and should say, [My] graven and molten images have commanded me.
Nítorí náà mo ti sọ nǹkan wọ̀nyí fún ọ ní ọjọ́ tí ó ti pẹ́; kí wọn ó tó ṣẹlẹ̀ mo ti kéde wọn fún un yín tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ìwọ kò fi lè sọ pé, ‘Àwọn ère mi ló ṣe wọ́n; àwọn ère igi àti òrìṣà irin ló fọwọ́sí i.’
6 You have heard all this, but you have not known: yet I have made known to you the new things from henceforth, which are coming to pass, and you said not,
Ìwọ ti gbọ́ àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí; wo gbogbo wọn. Ǹjẹ́ o kò nígbà wọ́n bí? “Láti ìsinsin yìí lọ, Èmi yóò máa sọ fún ọ nípa nǹkan tuntun, àwọn nǹkan tí ó fi ara sin tí ìwọ kò mọ̀.
7 Now they come to pass, and not formerly: and you heard not of them in former days: say not you, Yes, I know them.
A dá wọn ní àkókò yìí kì í ṣe láti ìgbà pípẹ́ ìwọ kò tí ì gbọ́ nípa wọn títí di òní. Nítorí náà, ìwọ kò lè sọ pé, ‘Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, mo mọ̀ nípa wọn.’
8 You have neither known, nor understood, neither from the beginning have I opened your ears: for I knew that you would surely deal treacherously, and would be called a transgressor even from the womb.
Ìwọ a ha ti gbọ́ tàbí ó ti yé ọ bí láti ìgbà àtijọ́ etí kò ti di yíyà. Ǹjẹ́ mo mọ̀ bí o ti jẹ́ alárékérekè tó; a ń pè ọ́ ní ọlọ̀tẹ̀ láti ìgbà ìbí rẹ.
9 For mine own sake will I show you my wrath, and will bring before you my glorious acts, that I may not utterly destroy you.
Nítorí orúkọ ara mi, mo dáwọ́ ìbínú mi dúró; nítorí ìyìn ara mi, mo fà á sẹ́yìn kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ, kí a má ba à ké ọ kúrò.
10 Behold, I have sold you, [but] not for silver; but I have rescued you from the furnace of affliction.
Wò ó, èmi ti tún ọ ṣe, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé kì í ṣe bí i fàdákà; Èmi ti dán ọ wò nínú ìléru ìpọ́njú.
11 For mine own sake I will do [this] for you, because my name is profaned; and I will not give my glory to another.
Nítorí orúkọ mi, nítorí orúkọ mi, mo ṣe èyí. Báwo ni mo ṣe lè jẹ́ kí a ba orúkọ mi jẹ́. Èmi kì yóò fi ògo mi fún ẹlòmíràn.
12 Hear me, O Jacob, and Israel whom I call; I am the first, and I endure for ever.
“Tẹ́tí sí mi, ìwọ Jakọbu Israẹli ẹni tí mo pè. Èmi ni ẹni náà; Èmi ni ẹni àkọ́kọ́ àti ẹni ìgbẹ̀yìn.
13 My hand also has founded the earth, and my right hand has fixed the sky: I will call them, and they shall stand together.
Ọwọ́ mi pàápàá ni ó fi àwọn ìpìlẹ̀ ayé sọlẹ̀, àti ọwọ́ ọ̀tún mi ni ó tẹ àwọn ọ̀run; nígbà tí mo pè wọ́n, gbogbo wọn dìde sókè papọ̀.
14 And all shall be gathered, and shall hear: who has told them these things? Out of love to you I have fulfilled your desire on Babylon, to abolish the seed of the Chaldeans.
“Gbogbo yín, ẹ péjọ kí ẹ sì gbọ́. Ta nínú wọn ni ó ti sọ nǹkan wọ̀nyí. Olúwa ti fẹ́ ẹ, yóò sì ṣe ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ ní Babiloni, apá rẹ̀ ni yóò sì wà ní ará àwọn ará Kaldea.
15 I have spoken, I have called, I have brought him, and made his way prosperous.
Èmi, àní Èmi ló ti sọ̀rọ̀; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, mo ti pè é. Èmi yóò mú un wá, òun yóò sì ṣe àṣeyọrí nínú ìrìnàjò rẹ̀.
16 Draw near to me, and hear you these words; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning: when it took place, there was I, and now the Lord, [even] the Lord, and his Spirit, has sent me.
“Ẹ súnmọ́ ọ̀dọ̀ mi kí ẹ sì dẹtí sí èyí: “Láti ìgbà ìkéde àkọ́kọ́ èmi kò sọ̀rọ̀ ní ìkọ̀kọ̀; ní àsìkò tí ó sì ṣẹlẹ̀, Èmi wà níbẹ̀.” Àti ní àkókò yìí, Olúwa Olódùmarè ni ó ti rán mi, pẹ̀lú ẹ̀mí rẹ̀.
17 Thus says the Lord that delivered you, the Holy One of Israel; I am your God, I have shown you how you should find the way wherein you should walk.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, Olùdáǹdè rẹ, Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli: “Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, tí ó kọ́ ọ ní ohun tí ó dára fún ọ, tí ó tọ́ ọ ṣọ́nà tí ó yẹ kí o máa rìn.
18 And if you had listened to my commandments, [then] would your peace have been like a river, and your righteousness as a wave of the sea.
Bí ó bá ṣe pé ìwọ bá ti tẹ́tí sílẹ̀ sí àṣẹ mi, àlàáfíà rẹ kì bá ti dàbí ì ti odò, àti òdodo rẹ bí ìgbì Òkun.
19 Your seed also would have been as the sand, and the offspring of your belly as the dust of the ground: neither now shall you by any means be utterly destroyed, neither shall your name perish before me.
Àwọn ọmọ rẹ ìbá ti dàbí iyanrìn, àwọn ọmọ yín bí i hóró ọkà tí a kò lè kà tán; orúkọ wọn ni a kì yóò ké kúrò tàbí kí a pa wọ́n run níwájú mi.”
20 Go forth of Babylon, you that flee from the Chaldeans: utter aloud a voice of joy, and let this be made known, proclaim it to the end of the earth; say you, The Lord has delivered his servant Jacob.
Fi Babeli sílẹ̀, sá fún àwọn ará Babeli, ṣe ìfilọ̀ èyí pẹ̀lú ariwo ayọ̀ kí o sì kéde rẹ̀. Rán an jáde lọ sí òpin ilẹ̀ ayé; wí pé, “Olúwa ti dá ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ Jakọbu nídè.”
21 And if they shall thirst, he shall lead them through the desert; he shall bring forth water to them out of the rock: the rock shall be cloven, and the water shall flow forth, and my people shall drink.
Òrùngbẹ kò gbẹ wọ́n nígbà tí ó kó wọn kọjá nínú aginjù; ó jẹ́ kí omi ó sàn fún wọn láti inú àpáta; ó fọ́ àpáta omi sì tú jáde.
22 There is no joy, says the Lord, to the ungodly.
“Kò sí àlàáfíà,” ni Olúwa wí, “Fún àwọn ìkà.”
