Isaiah 38
1 In those days has Hezekiah been sick to death, and Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, comes to him and says to him, “Thus said YHWH: Give a charge to your house, for you [are] dying, and do not live.”
Ní ọjọ́ náà ni Hesekiah ṣe àìsàn dé ojú ikú. Wòlíì Isaiah ọmọ Amosi sì lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, ó sì wí pé, “Ohun tí Olúwa wí nìyìí: Palẹ̀ ilé è rẹ mọ́, bí ó ti yẹ nítorí pé ìwọ yóò kú; ìwọ kì yóò dìde àìsàn yìí.”
2 And Hezekiah turns around his face to the wall, and prays to YHWH,
Hesekiah yí ojú u rẹ̀ sí ara ògiri, ó sì gba àdúrà sí Olúwa,
3 and says, “Ah, now, O YHWH, please remember how I have habitually walked before You in truth, and with a perfect heart, and I have done that which [is] good in your eyes”; and Hezekiah weeps [with] a great weeping.
“Rántí, Ìwọ Olúwa, bí mo ti rìn pẹ̀lú òtítọ́ níwájú rẹ, àti bí mo ti fi ọkàn dídúró ṣinṣin ṣe ohun tí ó dára ní ojú ù rẹ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Hesekiah sì sọkún kíkorò.
4 And a word of YHWH is to Isaiah, saying,
Lẹ́yìn náà ni ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Isaiah wá pé,
5 “Go, and you have said to Hezekiah, Thus said YHWH, God of your father David: I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tear, behold, I am adding fifteen years to your days,
“Lọ kí o sì sọ fún Hesekiah pé, ‘Ohun tí Olúwa wí nìyìí, Ọlọ́run Dafidi baba rẹ sọ pé, Èmi ti gbọ́ àdúrà rẹ mo sì ti rí omijé rẹ, Èmi yóò fi ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún kún ọjọ́ ayé rẹ.
6 and out of the hand of the king of Asshur I deliver you and this city, and have covered over this city.
Èmi yóò sì gba ìwọ àti ìlú yìí sílẹ̀ kúrò lọ́wọ́ ọba Asiria. Èmi yóò sì dáàbò bo ìlú yìí.
7 And this [is] to you the sign from YHWH, that YHWH does this thing that He has spoken.
“‘Èyí yìí ni àmì tí Olúwa fún ọ láti fihàn wí pé Olúwa yóò mú ìpinnu rẹ̀ ṣẹ.
8 Behold, I am bringing back the shadow of the degrees that it has gone down on the degrees of Ahaz, by the sun, backward ten degrees”; and the sun turns back ten degrees in the degrees that it had gone down.
Èmi yóò mú òjìji oòrùn kí ó padà sẹ́yìn ní ìṣísẹ̀ mẹ́wàá nínú èyí tí ó fi sọ̀kalẹ̀ ní ibi àtẹ̀gùn ti Ahasi.’” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni oòrùn padà sẹ́yìn ní ìṣísẹ̀ mẹ́wàá sí ibi tí ó ti dé tẹ́lẹ̀.
9 A writing of Hezekiah king of Judah concerning his being sick when he revives from his sickness:
Ìwé tí Hesekiah ọba Juda kọ lẹ́yìn àìsàn rẹ̀ nígbà tí ó ti gbádùn tán.
10 “I said in the cutting off of my days, I go to the gates of Sheol, I have numbered the remnant of my years. (Sheol h7585)
Èmi wí pé, “Ní àárín gbùngbùn ọjọ́ ayé mi èmi ó ha kọjá lọ ní ibodè ikú kí a sì dùn mí ní àwọn ọdún mi tí ó ṣẹ́kù?” (Sheol h7585)
11 I said, I do not see YAH—YAH! In the land of the living, I do not behold man anymore, With the inhabitants of the world.
Èmi wí pé, “Èmi kì yóò lè tún rí Olúwa mọ́, àní Olúwa, ní ilẹ̀ àwọn alààyè; èmi kì yóò lè síjú wo ọmọ ènìyàn mọ́, tàbí kí n wà pẹ̀lú àwọn tí ó sì ń gbe orílẹ̀ ayé báyìí.
12 My sojourning has departed, And been removed from me as a shepherd’s tent, I have drawn together, as a weaver, my life, By weakness it cuts me off, From day to night You end me.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí àgọ́ olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, ilé mi ni a ti wó lulẹ̀ tí a sì gbà kúrò lọ́wọ́ mi. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ahunṣọ mo ti ká ayé mi nílẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni òun sì ti ké mi kúrò lára àṣà; ọ̀sán àti òru ni ìwọ ṣe òpin mi.
13 I have set [Him] as a lion until morning, So He breaks all my bones, From day to night You end me.
Èmi fi sùúrù dúró títí di àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́, ṣùgbọ́n gẹ́gẹ́ bí kìnnìún ó ti fọ́ gbogbo egungun mi; ọ̀sán àti òru ni ìwọ fi ṣe òpin mi.
14 As a crane—a swallow—so I chatter, I mourn as a dove, My eyes have been drawn up on high, O YHWH, oppression [is] on me, be my guarantor.
Èmi dún gẹ́gẹ́ bí àkọ̀ tàbí alápáǹdẹ̀dẹ̀, èmi káàánú gẹ́gẹ́ bí aṣọ̀fọ̀ àdàbà. Ojú mi rẹ̀wẹ̀sì gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ti ń wo àwọn ọ̀run. Ìdààmú bá mi, Ìwọ Olúwa, wá fún ìrànlọ́wọ́ mi!”
15 What do I say? Seeing He spoke to me, And He Himself has worked, I go softly all my years for the bitterness of my soul.
Ṣùgbọ́n kí ni èmi lè sọ? Òun ti bá mi sọ̀rọ̀ àti pé òun tìkára rẹ̀ ló ti ṣe èyí. Èmi yóò máa rìn ní ìrẹ̀lẹ̀ ní gbogbo ọjọ́ mi nítorí ìpọ́njú ẹ̀mí mi yìí.
16 Lord, [men] live by these, And by all in them [is] the life of my spirit, And You save me, make me to also live,
Olúwa, nípa nǹkan báwọ̀nyí ni àwọn ènìyàn ń gbé; àti pé ẹ̀mí mi rí iyè nínú wọn pẹ̀lú. Ìwọ dá ìlera mi padà kí o sì jẹ́ kí n wà láààyè.
17 Behold, He changed bitterness to peace for me, And You have delighted in my soul without corruption, For You have cast all my sins behind Your back.
Nítòótọ́ fún àlàáfíà ara mi ni, ní ti pé mo ní ìkorò ńlá. Nínú ìfẹ́ rẹ ìwọ pa mí mọ́, kúrò nínú ọ̀gbun ìparun; ìwọ sì ti fi gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mi sí ẹ̀yìn rẹ.
18 For Sheol does not confess You, Death does not praise You, Those going down to the pit do not hope for Your truth. (Sheol h7585)
Nítorí pé isà òkú kò le è yìn ọ́, ipò òkú kò le è kọ orin ìyìn rẹ; àwọn tí ó sọ̀kalẹ̀ sínú ọ̀gbun kò lè ní ìrètí fún òtítọ́ rẹ. (Sheol h7585)
19 The living, the living, he confesses You,
Alààyè, àwọn alààyè wọ́n ń yìn ọ́, gẹ́gẹ́ bí èmi ti ń ṣe lónìí; àwọn baba sọ fún àwọn ọmọ wọn nípa òtítọ́ rẹ.
20 Like myself today; A father makes known to [his] sons of Your faithfulness, O YHWH—to save me: And we sing my songs all [the] days of our lives In the house of YHWH.”
Olúwa yóò gbà mí là bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwa yóò sì kọrin pẹ̀lú ohun èlò olókùn ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé wa nínú tẹmpili ti Olúwa.
21 And Isaiah says, “Let them take a bunch of figs, and plaster over the ulcer, and he lives.”
Isaiah ti sọ pé, “Pèsè ìṣù ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ (ohun gbígbóná tí a dì mọ́ ojú egbò) kí o sì fi sí ojú oówo náà, òun yóò sì gbádùn.”
22 And Hezekiah says, “What [is] the sign that I go up to the house of YHWH?”
Hesekiah sì béèrè pé, “Kí ni yóò jẹ́ àmì pé èmi yóò gòkè lọ sí tẹmpili Olúwa?”
