< Isaiah 1 >
1 The vision of Isaiah son of Amoz, which he saw, concerning Judah and Jerusalem, —in the days of Uzziah Jotham Ahaz Hezekiah—kings of Judah.
Ìran sí Juda àti Jerusalẹmu èyí tí Isaiah ọmọ Amosi rí ní àsìkò ìjọba Ussiah, Jotamu, Ahasi àti Hesekiah àwọn ọba Juda.
2 Hear O heavens, And give ear, O earth, for Yahweh, hath spoken: —Sons, have I brought up, and advanced, And, they, have rebelled against me.
Gbọ́ ẹ̀yin ọ̀run! Fi etí sílẹ̀, ìwọ ayé! Nítorí Olúwa ti sọ̀rọ̀: “Mo tọ́ àwọn ọmọ dàgbà, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n ti ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí mi.
3 An ox knoweth, his owner, And an ass his masters crib, —Israel, doth not know, My people doth not consider.
Màlúù mọ olówó rẹ̀, kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ sì mọ ibùjẹ olówó rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Israẹli kò mọ̀, òye kò yé àwọn ènìyàn mi.”
4 Alas! a nation—committing sin, a people—burdened with iniquity, a seed—practising wickedness, sons—acting corruptly. They have forsaken Yahweh despised the Holy One of Israel, —Are estranged and gone back.
Á à! Orílẹ̀-èdè ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀, àwọn ènìyàn tí ẹ̀bi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ń pa lẹ́rù, ìran àwọn aṣebi, àwọn ọmọ tó ti di aṣèbàjẹ́! Wọn ti kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀ wọn ti gan Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli, wọn sì ti kẹ̀yìn sí i.
5 Why should ye be smitten any more? Ye would again turn aside! The whole head is sick, And the whole heart faint:
Èéṣe tí a ó fi tún lù yín mọ́? Èéṣe tí ẹ ò dẹ́kun ọ̀tẹ̀ ṣíṣe? Gbogbo orí yín jẹ́ kìkì ọgbẹ́, gbogbo ọkàn yín sì ti pòruurù.
6 From the sole of the foot even unto the head, there is in it no soundness, Bruise and stripe and newly-made wound, —They have not been pressed out, nor bound up, nor soothed with oil.
Láti àtẹ́lẹsẹ̀ yín dé àtàrí yín kò sí àlàáfíà rárá, àyàfi ọgbẹ́ òun ìfarapa àti ojú egbò, tí a kò nù kúrò tàbí kí á dì tàbí kí a kùn ún ní òróró.
7 Your country—is a desolation, Your cities—are consumed with fire, —Your soil—right before your eyes, foreigners are devouring it, And it is a desolation a very overthrow by foreigners;
Orílẹ̀-èdè yín dahoro, a dáná sun àwọn ìlú yín, oko yín ni àwọn àjèjì ti jẹ run lójú ara yín náà, ni gbogbo rẹ̀ ṣòfò bí èyí tí àwọn àjèjì borí rẹ̀.
8 And left is the Daughter of Zion, Like a hut in a vineyard, —Like a lodge in a gourd-plot Like a city besieged.
Ọmọbìnrin Sioni ni a fi sílẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àtíbàbà nínú ọgbà àjàrà, gẹ́gẹ́ bí abà nínú oko ẹ̀gúnsí, àti bí ìlú tí a dó tì.
9 If, Yahweh of hosts, had not left us a very small remnant, Like Sodom, had we become, Gomorrah, had we resembled.
Àyàfi bí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun bá ṣẹ́ díẹ̀ kù fún wà, a ò bá ti rí bí Sodomu, a ò bá sì ti dàbí Gomorra.
10 Hear the word of Yahweh, ye rulers of Sodom, —Give ear to the instruction of our God, ye people of Gomorrah: —
Gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa, ẹ̀yin aláṣẹ Sodomu, tẹ́tí sí òfin Ọlọ́run wa, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn Gomorra!
11 Of what use to me, is your multitude of sacrifices: Saith Yahweh: I am sated with ascending-offerings of rams and the fat of fed beasts, —In the blood of bulls and young rams and he-goats, have I no pleasure.
“Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ẹbọ yín kín ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ẹbọ yín jásí fún mi?” ni Olúwa wí. “Mo ti ní ànító àti àníṣẹ́kù ẹbọ sísun ti àgbò àti ọ̀rá ẹran àbọ́pa, Èmi kò ní inú dídùn nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ akọ màlúù, ti àgùntàn àti ti òbúkọ.
12 When ye enter to see my face, Who hath required this at your hand trampling my courts?
Nígbà tí ẹ wá farahàn níwájú mi, ta ni ó béèrè èyí lọ́wọ́ yín, gìrì gìrì ẹsẹ̀ nínú àgbàlá mi?
13 Ye shall not again bring in an empty, present, Incense, an abomination, is that unto me! New moon, and sabbath calling an assembly—I cannot endure, iniquity and sacred festival!
Ẹ má mú ọrẹ asán wá mọ́! Ìríra ni tùràrí yín jásí fún mi, oṣù tuntun àti ọjọ́ ìsinmi àti àwọn àpéjọ, Èmi kò lè faradà á, ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni àpéjọ yín wọ̀nyí.
14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts, my soul, hateth, —They have become unto me a burden I am too weary to bear:
Ayẹyẹ oṣù tuntun yín àti àjọ̀dún tí a yàn, ni ọkàn mi kórìíra. Wọ́n ti di àjàgà sí mi ní ọrùn, Ó sú mi láti fi ara dà wọ́n.
15 Even when ye spread forth your open palms, I hide mine eyes from you; Yea, though ye multiply prayers, I am not hearkening, —Your hands, with deeds of blood, are filled.
Nígbà tí ẹ bá tẹ́ ọwọ́ yín sókè ni àdúrà, Èmi yóò fi ojú mi pamọ́ fún un yín, kódà bí ẹ bá gba ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àdúrà, Èmi kò ni tẹ́tí sí i. “Ọwọ́ yín kún fún ẹ̀jẹ̀.
16 Wash you make you clean, Put away the wickedness of your doings from before mine eyes, —Cease to do evil.
“Wẹ̀ kí ẹ sì jẹ́ kí ara yín mọ́. Ẹ mú ìwà ibi yín kúrò níwájú mi! Dáwọ́ àìṣedéédéé dúró,
17 Learn to do well—Seek justice, Correct the oppressor, —Vindicate the fatherless, Plead the cause of the widow,
kọ́ láti ṣe rere! Wá ìdájọ́ òtítọ́, tu àwọn tí a ń pọ́n lójú nínú. Ṣàtìlẹyìn fún ẹ̀tọ́ aláìní baba, gbà ẹjọ́ opó rò.
18 Come, I pray you, and let us settle the dispute Saith Yahweh, —Though your sins be found like scarlet, As snow, shall they be made white, Though they appear red like crimson, As wool, shall they become.
“Ẹ wá ní ìsinsin yìí, ẹ jẹ́ kí a jọ ṣàṣàrò,” ni Olúwa wí. “Bí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín bá rí bí osùn, wọn ó sì funfun bí i yìnyín, bí wọn bá sì pọ́n bí ẹ̀jẹ̀, wọn ó sì dàbí ẹ̀gbọ̀n òwú.
19 If ye be willing—and hearken Of the good of the land, shall ye eat;
Tí ẹ̀yin bá fẹ́, tí ẹ sì gbọ́rọ̀, ẹ̀yin yóò sì jẹ ojúlówó adùn ilẹ̀ náà.
20 But, if ye refuse and rebel, With the sword, shall ye be devoured, For, the mouth of Yahweh, hath spoken it.
Ṣùgbọ́n tí ẹ bá kọ̀ tí ẹ sì ṣọ̀tẹ̀, idà ni a ó fi pa yín run.” Nítorí ẹnu Olúwa la ti sọ ọ́.
21 How hath she become unchaste!—The city that was Faithful, —Full of justice, Righteousness lodged in her, But, now, murderers!
Wo bí ìlú òtítọ́ ṣe di àgbèrè! Ó ti kún fún ìdájọ́ òtítọ́ nígbà kan rí, òdodo ń gbé ibẹ̀ tẹ́lẹ̀ rí, ṣùgbọ́n báyìí àwọn apànìyàn!
22 Thy silver, hath become dross, —Thy wine, weakened with water;
Fàdákà rẹ ti di ìpẹ́pẹ́, ààyò wáìnì rẹ la ti bu omi là.
23 Thy rulers, are unruly, and companions of thieves, Every one of the people, loveth a bribe, and runneth after rewards, —The fatherless, they do not vindicate, And, the plea of the widow, reacheth them not.
Ọlọ̀tẹ̀ ni àwọn aláṣẹ yín, akẹgbẹ́ àwọn olè, gbogbo wọn ló fẹ́ràn àbẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọ́n sì ń wá ẹ̀bùn kiri. Wọ́n kì í ṣàtìlẹyìn fún ẹ̀tọ́ aláìní baba, ẹjọ́ opó kì í sì í dé iwájú wọn.
24 Therefore, Declareth the Lord Yahweh of hosts, The Mighty One of Israel, —Alas! I must appease me on mine adversaries, I must avenge me on mine enemies
Nítorí náà ni Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, alágbára kan ṣoṣo tí Israẹli sọ wí pé: “Á à! Èmi yóò ní ìfọ̀kànbalẹ̀ lórí àwọn ọ̀tá mi n ó sì gbẹ̀san lára àwọn ọ̀tá mi.
25 That I may turn my hand against thee, And smelt away, as with potash, thy dross, And remove all thine alloy;
Èmi yóò pa ọwọ́ mi dà sí ọ, èmi ó sì ku ìpẹ́pẹ́ rẹ dànù, n ó sì mú gbogbo ìdọ̀tí rẹ kúrò.
26 That I may restore thy Judges as at the first, and thy Counsellors as at the beginning, —After that, shalt thou be called Righteous citadel, Trusty city, —
Èmi yóò mú àwọn adájọ́ rẹ bọ̀ sí ipò gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ti àtijọ́, àti àwọn olùdámọ̀ràn rẹ̀ bí i ti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ pẹ̀pẹ̀. Lẹ́yìn náà ni a ó pè ọ ní ìlú òdodo, ìlú òtítọ́.”
27 Zion, with justice shall be redeemed, —And her returning ones, with righteousness;
A ó fi ìdájọ́ òtítọ́ ra Sioni padà, àti àwọn tí ó ronúpìwàdà pẹ̀lú òdodo.
28 And the downfall of transgressors and sinners, shall be, together, —And, they who forsake Yahweh, shall be brought to an end;
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọlọ̀tẹ̀ àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ni a ó parun. Àwọn tí ó bá sì kọ Olúwa sílẹ̀ ni yóò ṣègbé.
29 For they shall turn pale on account of the oaks which ye desired, —And ye shall blush on account of the gardens which ye had chosen;
“Ojú yóò tì yín nítorí igi óákù mímọ́ èyí tí ẹ ní inú dídùn sí, a ó kàn yín lábùkù nítorí àwọn ọgbà yìí tí ẹ ti yàn fúnra yín.
30 For ye shall be as an oak with its leaf faded, And as a garden that hath no, water;
Ẹ ó sì dàbí igi óákù tí ewé rẹ̀ ti rọ, bí ọgbà tí kò ní omi.
31 Then shall the strong one become tow, And his work a spark, —And they shall both blaze together And there be none to quench the fire.
