< Isaiah 64 >
1 Did You not tear the heavens? You came down, Mountains flowed from Your presence,
Ìwọ ìbá fa ọ̀run ya kí o sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá, tí àwọn òkè ńlá yóò fi wárìrì níwájú rẹ!
2 (As fire kindles stubble—Fire causes water to boil), To make Your Name known to Your adversaries, Nations tremble from Your presence.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìgbà tí iná mú ẹ̀ka igi jó tí ó sì mú kí omi ó hó, sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá kí orúkọ rẹ le di mí mọ̀ fún àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ kí o sì jẹ́ kí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè kí ó wárìrì níwájú rẹ!
3 In Your doing fearful things [that] we do not expect, You came down, Mountains flowed from Your presence.
Nítorí nígbà tí o bá ṣe àwọn ohun ẹ̀rù tí àwa kò nírètí, o sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá, àwọn òkè ńlá sì wárìrì níwájú rẹ̀.
4 Even from antiquity [men] have not heard, They have not given ear, Eye has not seen a God except You, He works for those waiting for Him.
Láti ìgbà àtijọ́ kò sí ẹni tí ó gbọ́ rí kò sí etí kan tí ó gbọ́ ọ, kò sí ojú tí ó tí ì rí Ọlọ́run mìíràn lẹ́yìn rẹ, tí ó máa ń ṣe nǹkan lórúkọ àwọn tí ó dúró dè é.
5 You have met with the rejoicer And the doer of righteousness, In Your ways they remember You, Behold, You have been angry when we sin, By them [is] continuance, and we are saved.
Ìwọ a máa wá fún ìrànlọ́wọ́ àwọn tí wọn ń fi ayọ̀ ṣe ohun tó tọ́, tí ó rántí ọ̀nà rẹ. Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí a bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí wọn, inú bí ọ. Báwo ni a ó ṣe gbà wá là?
6 And we are as unclean—all of us, And all our righteous acts [are] as garments of menstruation; And we fade as a leaf—all of us. And our iniquities take us away as wind.
Gbogbo wa ti dàbí ẹnìkan tí ó jẹ́ aláìmọ́, gbogbo òdodo wa sì dàbí èkísà ẹlẹ́gbin; gbogbo wa kákò bí ewé, àti bí afẹ́fẹ́, ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa ti gbá wa lọ kúrò.
7 And there is none calling on Your Name, Stirring himself up to lay hold on You, For You have hid Your face from us, And You melt us away by our iniquities.
Ẹnikẹ́ni kò pe orúkọ rẹ tàbí kí ó gbìyànjú láti dì ẹ́ mú; nítorí ìwọ ti fi ojú rẹ pamọ́ fún wa ó sì jẹ́ kí àwa ṣòfò dànù nítorí àwọn ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa.
8 And now, O YHWH, You [are] our Father, We [are] the clay, and You [are] our Framer, And the work of Your hand—all of us.
Síbẹ̀síbẹ̀, Olúwa, ìwọ ni Baba wa. Àwa ni amọ̀, ìwọ ni amọ̀kòkò; gbogbo wa jẹ́ iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ rẹ.
9 Do not be angry, O YHWH, very severely, Nor remember iniquity forever, Behold, look attentively, we implore You, We [are] all Your people.
Má ṣe bínú kọjá ààlà, ìwọ Olúwa, má ṣe rántí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa títí láé. Jọ̀wọ́, bojú wò wá, ni a gbàdúrà, nítorí ènìyàn rẹ ni gbogbo wa.
10 Your holy cities have been a wilderness, Zion has been a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Àwọn ìlú mímọ́ rẹ ti di aṣálẹ̀; Sioni pàápàá di aṣálẹ̀, Jerusalẹmu di ahoro.
11 Our holy and our beautiful house, Where our fathers praised You, Has become burned with fire, And all our desirable things have become a ruin.
Tẹmpili mímọ́ ológo wa, níbi tí àwọn baba wa ti yìn ọ́, ni a ti fi iná sun, àti ohun gbogbo tí í ṣe ìṣúra wa ti dahoro.
12 Do You refrain Yourself for these, YHWH? You are silent, and afflict us very severely!
Lẹ́yìn gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí, Olúwa, ìwọ ó ha sì tún fi ara rẹ pamọ́ bí? Ìwọ ó ha dákẹ́ kí o sì fìyà jẹ wá kọjá ààlà bí?
