< Isaiah 7 >
1 And it came to pass in the days of Achaz the son of Jotham, the son of 'Uzziyahu, the king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekach the son of Remalyahu, the king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it; but were not able to make an attack upon it.
Nígbà tí Ahasi ọmọ Jotamu ọmọ Ussiah jẹ́ ọba Juda, ọba Resini ti Aramu àti Peka ọmọ Remaliah ọba Israẹli gòkè wá láti bá Jerusalẹmu jà, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò sì le è borí i rẹ̀.
2 And it was told unto the house of David, saying, Syria is encamped with Ephraim; and his heart trembled, with the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are shaken before the wind.
Báyìí, a sọ fún ilé Dafidi pé, “Aramu mà ti lẹ̀dí àpò pọ̀ mọ́ Efraimu”; fún ìdí èyí, ọkàn Ahasi àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ wárìrì gẹ́gẹ́ bí igi oko ṣe ń wárìrì níwájú afẹ́fẹ́.
3 And the Lord said unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Achaz, thou with Shear-yashub thy son, to the end of the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the highway of the washer's field;
Lẹ́yìn èyí, Olúwa sọ fún Isaiah pé, “Jáde, ìwọ àti ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin rẹ Ṣeari-Jaṣubu láti pàdé Ahasi ní ìpẹ̀kun ìṣàn omi ti adágún òkè, ní òpópó ọ̀nà tí ó lọ sí pápá Alágbàfọ̀.
4 And thou shalt say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, and let thy heart not become faint because of these two stumps of smoking firebrands, before the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remalyahu.
Sọ fún un, ‘Ṣọ́ra à rẹ, fi ọkàn balẹ̀, kí o má ṣe bẹ̀rù. Má ṣe ba ọkàn jẹ́ nítorí kùkùté igi ìdáná méjèèjì yìí, nítorí ìbínú gbígbóná Resini àti Aramu àti ti ọmọ Remaliah.
5 Forasmuch as Syria, [with] Ephraim and the son of Remalyahu, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,
Aramu, Efraimu àti Remaliah ti dìtẹ̀ ìparun rẹ, wọ́n wí pé,
6 Let us go up against Judah, and besiege it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set up as king in the midst of it the son of Tabeal:
“Jẹ́ kí a kọlu Juda; jẹ́ kí a fà á ya pẹ́rẹpẹ̀rẹ, kí a sì pín in láàrín ara wa, kí a sì fi ọmọ Tabeli jẹ ọba lórí i rẹ̀.”
7 Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, It shall not succeed, and it shall not come to pass.
Síbẹ̀ èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “‘Èyí kò ní wáyé èyí kò le ṣẹlẹ̀,
8 For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin: and within sixty and five years shall Ephraim be broken, to be no more a people.
nítorí Damasku ni orí Aramu, orí Damasku sì ni Resini. Láàrín ọdún márùnlélọ́gọ́ta Efraimu yóò ti fọ́ tí kì yóò le jẹ́ ènìyàn mọ́.
9 And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remalyahu's son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not have permanence.
Orí Efraimu sì ni Samaria, orí Samaria sì ni ọmọ Remaliah. Bí ẹ̀yin kí yóò bá gbàgbọ́, lóòtítọ́, a kì yóò fi ìdí yín múlẹ̀.’”
10 And the Lord continued to speak unto Achaz, saying,
Bákan náà Olúwa tún bá Ahasi sọ̀rọ̀,
11 Ask thee a sign from the Lord thy God; ask it in the depth, or high up above. (Sheol )
“Béèrè fún àmì lọ́wọ́ Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, bóyá ní ọ̀gbun tí ó jì jùlọ tàbí àwọn òkè tí ó ga jùlọ.” (Sheol )
12 But Achaz said, I will not ask, and I will not tempt the Lord.
Ṣùgbọ́n Ahasi sọ pé, “Èmi kì yóò béèrè; Èmi kò ní dán Olúwa wò.”
13 And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David! Is it too little for you to weary men, that ye will weary also my God?
Lẹ́yìn náà Isaiah sọ pé, “Gbọ́ ní ìsinsin yìí, ìwọ ilé Dafidi, kò ha tọ́ láti tán ènìyàn ní sùúrù, ìwọ yóò ha tan Ọlọ́run ní sùúrù bí?
14 Therefore will the Lord himself give you a sign: behold, this young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and she shall call his name 'Immanu-el, [God with us].
Nítorí náà, Olúwa fúnra ara rẹ̀ ni yóò fún ọ ní àmì kan. Wúńdíá kan yóò lóyún, yóò sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan, yóò sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Emmanueli.
15 Cream and honey shall he eat, so soon as he knoweth to refuse the evil, and to choose the good.
Òun yóò jẹ wàrà àti oyin nígbà tí ó bá ní ìmọ̀ tó láti kọ ẹ̀bi àti láti yan rere.
16 For before yet the child shall know to refuse the evil, and to choose the good, shall be forsaken the land, of the kings of which thou feelest dread.
Ṣùgbọ́n kí ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin náà tó mọ bí a ti ń kọ ẹ̀bi àti láti yan rere, ilẹ̀ àwọn ọba méjèèjì tí ń bà ọ́ lẹ́rù wọ̀nyí yóò ti di ahoro.
17 The Lord will bring over thee, and over thy people, and over thy father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim withdrew from Judah, —the king of Assyria.
Olúwa yóò mú àsìkò mìíràn wá fún ọ àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ àti lórí ilé baba rẹ irú èyí tí kò sí láti ìgbà tí Efraimu ti yà kúrò ní Juda, yóò sì mú ọba Asiria wá.”
18 And it shall come to pass on that day, that the Lord will call for the fly that is in the uttermost end of the streams of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
Ní ọjọ́ náà ni Olúwa yóò súfèé pe àwọn eṣinṣin láti àwọn odò tó jìnnà ní Ejibiti wá, àti fún àwọn oyin láti ilẹ̀ Asiria.
19 And they shall come, and shall encamp, all of them, in the desolate valleys, and in the clefts of the rocks, and upon all thorn-hedges, and upon all bushes.
Gbogbo wọn yóò sì wá dó sí gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ òkè àti pàlàpálá òkúta, lára koríko ẹ̀gún àti gbogbo ibi ihò omi.
20 On the same day will the Lord shave with the razor that is hired, from among those on the other side of the river, with the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and also the beard shall it entirely remove.
Ní ọjọ́ náà, Olúwa yóò lo abẹ fífẹ́lẹ́ tí a yá láti ìkọjá odò Eufurate, ọba Asiria, láti fá irun orí àti ti àwọn ẹsẹ̀ ẹ yín, àti láti mú irùngbọ̀n yín kúrò pẹ̀lú.
21 And it shall come to pass on that day, that a man shall nourish [but] one young cow, and two sheep;
Ní ọjọ́ náà, ọkùnrin kan yóò máa sin ọ̀dọ́ abo màlúù kan àti ewúrẹ́ méjì.
22 And it shall happen, that for the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat cream; for cream and honey shall eat every one that is left in the midst of the land.
Àti nítorí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ wàrà tí wọn yóò máa fún un, yóò ní wàràǹkàṣì láti jẹ. Gbogbo àwọn tí ó bá kù ní ilẹ̀ náà yóò jẹ wàràǹkàṣì àti oyin.
23 And it shall come to pass on that day, that every place, where there are [now] a thousand vines worth a thousand silver shekels, shall be, —yea, this shall be [given up] to briers and thorns.
Ní ọjọ́ náà, ni gbogbo ibi tí àjàrà tí ó tó ẹgbẹ̀rún ṣékélì fàdákà, ẹ̀gún àti ẹ̀wọ̀n nìkan ni yóò wà níbẹ̀.
24 With arrows and with bows shall men enter thither; because all the land shall become [covered with] briers and thorns.
Àwọn ènìyàn yóò máa lọ síbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọrun àti ọfà nítorí pé ẹ̀gún àti ẹ̀wọ̀n ni yóò bo gbogbo ilẹ̀ náà.
25 And all mountains that are worked with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: and they shall serve for the pasture of oxen, and for the treading of sheep.
