< Isaiah 10 >

1 Woe unto those that decree decrees of unrighteousness, and the writers who write down wrongful things;
Ègbé ni fún àwọn ti ń ṣe òfin àìṣòdodo,
2 To turn aside from judgment the needy, and to rob the just due of the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and [that] they may plunder the fatherless!
láti dún àwọn aláìní ní ẹ̀tọ́ wọn àti láti fa ọwọ́ ìdájọ́ sẹ́yìn kúrò níwájú àwọn olùpọ́njú ènìyàn mi, wọ́n sọ àwọn ọ̀pọ̀ di ìjẹ fún wọn, wọ́n sì ń ja àwọn aláìní baba lólè.
3 And what will ye do on the day of the visitation, and at the desolation which will come from afar? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?
Kí ni ìwọ yóò ṣe ní ọjọ́ ìṣirò nígbà tí ìparun bá ti ọ̀nà jíjìn wá? Ta ni ìwọ yóò sá tọ̀ fún ìrànlọ́wọ́? Níbo ni ìwọ yóò fi ọrọ̀ rẹ sí?
4 Without me they shall kneel down under the prisoners, and under the slain shall they fall. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand still remaineth stretched out.
Ohunkóhun kò ní ṣẹ́kù mọ́ bí kò ṣe láti tẹ̀ ba láàrín àwọn ìgbèkùn tàbí kí o ṣubú sáàrín àwọn tí a pa. Pẹ̀lú gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ìbínú rẹ̀ kò kúrò, ọwọ́ rẹ̀ sì tún gbé sókè.
5 Woe over Asshur, the rod of my anger; and a staff is in their hand my indignation.
“Ègbé ni fún àwọn ará Asiria, ọ̀gọ ìbínú mi, ní ọwọ́ ẹni tí kùmọ̀ ìbínú mi wà!
6 Against a hypocritical nation will I send him, and against the people of my fury will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to carry off the prey, and to render them trodden down like the mire of the streets.
Mo rán an sí orílẹ̀-èdè aláìní Ọlọ́run, mo dojú rẹ̀ kọ àwọn ènìyàn tí ó mú mi bínú láti já ẹrù gbà, àti láti kó ìkógun láti tẹ̀ mọ́lẹ̀ bí amọ̀ ní ojú òpópó.
7 But he deemeth it not so, and his heart doth not think so; but to destroy is in his heart, and to cut off nations not a few.
Ṣùgbọ́n, èyí kì í ṣe ohun tí ó fẹ́ ṣe, èyí kọ́ ni ohun tí ó ní lọ́kàn; èrò rẹ̀ ni láti parun, láti fi òpin sí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ orílẹ̀-èdè.
8 For he saith, “Are not my princes altogether kings?
‘Kì í ha ṣe pé ọba ni gbogbo àwọn aláṣẹ mi?’ ni Olúwa wí.
9 Is not Calno like Karkemish? is not Chamath like Arpad? is not Samaria like Damascus?
‘Kì í ha ṣe pé Kalno dàbí i Karkemiṣi? Hamati kò ha dàbí i Arpadi, àti Samaria bí i Damasku?
10 As my hand hath reached the kingdoms of the idols, whose graven images exceeded in number those of Jerusalem and of Samaria:
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọwọ́ mi ti gbá ìjọba àwọn òrìṣà mú, ìjọba tí ère rẹ̀ pọ̀ ju ti Jerusalẹmu àti Samaria lọ.
11 Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, do so unto Jerusalem and unto her idols?”
Èmi kì yóò a bá Jerusalẹmu wí àti àwọn ère rẹ̀?’” Gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ṣe ṣe sí Samaria àti àwọn ère rẹ̀?
12 Wherefore shall it come to pass, that when the Lord hath completed all his work on mount Zion and in Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the haughtiness of the king of Asshur, and the vain-glory of his proud looks.
Nígbà tí Olúwa ti ṣe iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ sí òkè Sioni àti Jerusalẹmu, yóò sọ wí pé, “Èmi yóò fi ìyà jẹ ọba Asiria nítorí gààrù àyà rẹ̀ àti ìgbéraga ojú rẹ̀.
13 For he hath said, “By the strength of my hand have I done it, and by my wisdom, for I have intelligence; and I have removed the boundaries of nations, and their laid-up treasures have I plundered, and brought down low those that were powerfully seated.
Nítorí ó sọ pé: “‘Pẹ̀lú agbára ọwọ́ mi ni mo fi ṣe èyí àti pẹ̀lú ọgbọ́n ọ̀n mi, nítorí mo ní òye. Mo mú ààlà àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè kúrò, mo sì ti kó ìṣúra wọn. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí alágbára kan, mo borí àwọn ọba wọn.
14 And my hand hath reached, as a bird's nest, the wealth of the people: and as one gathereth up eggs that are forsaken, have I myself gathered up all the earth: and there was not one that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or chirped.”
Bí ènìyàn ti í tọwọ́ bọ ìtẹ́ ẹyẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọwọ́ mi tẹ ọrọ̀ àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè. Bí ènìyàn ti í kó ẹyin tí a kọ̀sílẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni mo kó àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè kò sí èyí tí ó fi apá lu apá, tàbí kí ó ya ẹnu láti dún.’”
15 Shall the axe boast itself over him that heweth therewith? or shall the saw magnify itself against him that swingeth it? as if the rod should swing about those that lift it up, or as if the staff should lift up him who is no wood.
Ǹjẹ́ àáké le gbé ara rẹ̀ sókè kọjá ẹni tí ó ń fì í, tàbí kí ayùn fọ́nnu sí ẹni tí ó ń lò ó? Àfi bí ẹni pé ọ̀pá ó na ẹni tí ó gbé e sókè, tàbí kí kùmọ̀ lu èyí tí kì í ṣe igi.
16 Therefore will the Lord, the Eternal of hosts, send forth among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory shall be kindled a burning like the burning of a fire.
Nítorí náà, ni Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, yóò rán ààrùn ìrẹ̀dànù sórí àwọn akíkanjú jagunjagun, lábẹ́ ògo rẹ̀ ni iná kan yóò ti sọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí iná ajónirun.
17 And the light of Israel shall become a fire, and his Holy One a flame; and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers on one day.
Ìmọ́lẹ̀ Israẹli yóò di iná, Ẹni Mímọ́ rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ ọ̀wọ́-iná, ní ọjọ́ kan ṣoṣo yóò jó yóò sì run àti ẹ̀gún àti ẹ̀wọ̀n.
18 And the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body, will he destroy: and he shall be as [a tree] eaten to powder by the worms.
Gbogbo ẹwà igbó o rẹ̀, àti àwọn pápá ọlọ́ràá gbogbo rẹ̀ ni yóò run pátápátá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹni tí ó ṣàìsàn ti í ṣòfò dànù.
19 And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few in number, so that a boy may write them down.
Àwọn igi tí yóò kù nínú igbó o rẹ̀ yóò kéré níye, tí ọ̀dọ́mọdé yóò fi le kọ̀ wọ́n sílẹ̀.
20 And it shall come to pass on that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall not farther lean for support upon him that smiteth them; but they shall lean upon the Lord, the Holy one of Israel, in truth.
Ní ọjọ́ náà, àwọn tí ó ṣẹ́kù ní Israẹli, àwọn tí ó yè ní ilé e Jakọbu, kò ní gbẹ́kẹ̀lé ẹni náà tí ó lù wọ́n bolẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ní òtítọ́ yóò gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa, Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli.
21 The remnant shall return, the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God.
Àwọn ìyókù yóò padà, àwọn ìyókù ti Jakọbu yóò padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run Alágbára.
22 For though thy people Israel should be as the sand of the sea, [yet] a remnant [only] of them shall return: destruction is decreed, it overfloweth with righteousness.
Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, ìwọ Israẹli dàbí yanrìn ní Òkun, ẹni díẹ̀ ni yóò padà. A ti pàṣẹ ìparun, àkúnwọ́sílẹ̀ àti òdodo.
23 For it is completed and decreed: the Lord, the Eternal of hosts will do it in the midst of all the land.
Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni yóò mú un ṣẹ, ìparun tí a ti pàṣẹ rẹ̀ lórí gbogbo ilẹ̀ náà.
24 Therefore thus hath said the Lord the Eternal of hosts, Be not afraid, O my people that dwellest in Zion, of Asshur, who will smite thee with the rod, and lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.
Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, “Ẹ̀yin ènìyàn mi tí ó ń gbé Sioni, ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù àwọn Asiria, tí ó ń fi ọ̀pá lù yín, tí wọ́n sì ń gbé ọ̀gọ tì yín bí Ejibiti ti ṣe.
25 For yet but a very little while more, and the indignation shall cease, and my anger shall be for their destruction.
Láìpẹ́, ìbínú mi sí i yín yóò wá sí òpin n ó sì dojú ìrunú mi kọ wọ́n, fún ìparun wọn.”
26 And the Lord shall lift up a scourge over him like [at] the smiting of Midian at the rock of 'Oreb: and as his staff was lifted over the sea, so will he carry him off after the manner of Egypt.
Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun yóò nà wọ́n ní ẹgba. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ṣe lu Midiani ní òkè Orebu, yóò sì gbé ọ̀pá rẹ̀ lé orí omi gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti ṣe ní Ejibiti.
27 And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be removed from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be broken because of the fatness.
Ní ọjọ́ náà, a ó gbé ẹrù wọn kúrò ní èjìká a yín, àti àjàgà a wọn kúrò ní ọrùn un yín a ó fọ́ àjàgà náà, nítorí pé ẹ̀yin ó ti sanra.
28 He cometh to 'Ayath, he passeth on to Migron; at Michmash he layeth up his baggage;
Wọ́n wọ Aiati, wọ́n gba Migroni kọjá, wọ́n kó nǹkan pamọ́ sí Mikmasi.
29 They go through the pass; they take up their lodging at Geba'; Ramah trembleth; Gib'ah of Saul fleeth.
Wọ́n ti rékọjá ọ̀nà, wọ́n wí pé, “Àwa ó tẹ̀dó sí Geba lóru yìí.” Rama mì tìtì Gibeah ti Saulu sálọ.
30 Let thy voice resound, O daughter of Gallim; listen Layshah; O poor 'Anathoth!
Gbé ohùn rẹ sókè, ìwọ ọmọbìnrin Galimu! Dẹ etí sílẹ̀, ìwọ Laiṣa! Ìwọ òtòṣì Anatoti!
31 Madmenah is in motion; the inhabitants of Gebim are assembled to flee.
Madmena ti fẹsẹ̀ fẹ́ ẹ, àwọn ènìyàn Gebimu ti fi ara pamọ́.
32 As yet today will he remain at Nob: then will he swing his hand against the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
Ní ọjọ́ yìí, wọn yóò dúró ní Nobu wọn yóò kan sáárá, ní òkè ọmọbìnrin Sioni ní òkè Jerusalẹmu.
33 Behold, the Lord, the Eternal of hosts, will lop off the fruitful bough with terrific might: and those of towering growth shall be hewn down, and the high shall be laid low.
Wò ó, Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, yóò kán ẹ̀ka náà sọnù pẹ̀lú agbára. Àwọn igi ọlọ́lá ni a ó gé lulẹ̀ àwọn tí ó ga gogoro ni a ó rẹ̀ sílẹ̀.
34 And he will cut down the thickets of the forests with iron, and the Lebanon shall fall by [means of] a mighty one.
Òun yóò gé igbó dídí pẹ̀lú àáké, Lebanoni yóò ṣubú níwájú Alágbára náà.
