Isaiah 49
1 Hearken, ye Coastlands, unto me, And give ear ye peoples afar off, —Yahweh, called me, from my birth, From my nativity, made he mention of my name;
Ku kasa kunne gare ni, ku tsibirai; ku ji wannan, ku al’ummai masu nesa. Kafin a haife Ni Ubangiji ya kira ni; tun daga haihuwata ya ambaci sunana.
2 And he made my mouth, like a sharp sword, In the shadow of his hand, he concealed me, —And made of me a polished arrow, In his quiver, he hid me;
Ya yi bakina kamar takobi mai kaifi, cikin inuwar hannunsa ya ɓoye ni; ya sa na zama kamar kibiya mai tsini ya kuma ɓoye ni cikin kwarinsa.
3 And said to me My Servant, thou art, —Israel, in whom I will get myself glory.
Ya ce mini, “Kai bawana ne, Isra’ila, a cikinka zan bayyana darajata.”
4 But I, said, To no purpose, have I toiled, For waste and mist—my vigour, have I spent, —Surely, my vindication, is, with, Yahweh, And, my recompence, with my God.
Amma na ce, “Na yi aiki a banza; na kashe duk ƙarfina a banza da wofi. Duk da haka abin da yake nawa yana a hannun Ubangiji, ladana kuma tana a wurin Allahna.”
5 Now, therefore, said Yahweh—Fashioning me from birth To be Servant to him, To restore Jacob unto him, And that, Israel, unto him, might be gathered And I be honourable in the eyes of Yahweh, And, my God, be proved to have been my strength,
Yanzu fa Ubangiji ya ce ya siffanta ni a cikin mahaifa don in zama bawansa don in dawo da Yaƙub gare shi in kuma tattara Isra’ila gare shi, gama an girmama ni a gaban Ubangiji Allahna kuma ne ƙarfina
6 Yea he said—It is too small a thing, for being my Servant, That thou shouldest raise up the tribes of Jacob, And the preserved of Israel, shouldst restore, —So I will give thee to become a light of nations, That, my salvation, may reach as far as the end of the earth.
ya ce, “Ɗan ƙaramin abu ne ka zama bawana don ka maido da kabilar Yaƙub ka kuma dawo da waɗannan na Isra’ilawan da na kiyaye. Zan kuma mai da kai haske ga Al’ummai, don ka kawo cetona zuwa iyakokin duniya.”
7 Thus, saith Yahweh—the Redeemer of Israel, his Holy One To him that is despised of the soul, To the abhorred of the nation To the servant of rulers, Kings, shall see and arise, Princes, lo! they have bowed themselves down, —Because of Yahweh, who is faithful, The Holy One of Israel, lo! he hath chosen thee.
Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, Mai Fansa da kuma Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila gare shi wanda al’ummai suka rena suka kuma ki, ga bawan masu mulki. “Sarakuna za su gan ka su kuma miƙe tsaye, sarakuna za su gani su kuma rusuna, saboda Ubangiji, wanda yake mai aminci, Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila, wanda ya zaɓe ka.”
8 Thus, saith Yahweh—In a time of acceptance, have I answered thee, In a day of salvation, have I helped thee, —That I may preserve thee And give thee as the covenant of a people, To establish the land, To bring into possession the desolate heritages;
Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “A lokacin tagomashina zan amsa muku, kuma a ranar ceto zan taimake ku; zan kiyaye ku zan kuma sa ku zama alkawari ga mutane, don ku maido da ƙasa ku kuma sāke raba gādon kufai,
9 Saying To them who are bound Go forth, To them who are in darkness, Shew yourselves, —By the roads, shall they graze, And on all bare places, shall be their pasture:
don ku ce wa waɗanda suke cikin kurkuku, ‘Ku fito,’ ga waɗanda suke cikin duhu kuma, ‘Ku’yantu!’ “Za su yi kiwo kusa da hanyoyi su kuma sami wurin kiwo a kowane tudu.
10 They shall neither hunger, nor thirst, Nor shall smite them the glowing sand, or the glaring sun, —For, he that hath compassion upon them, will lead them, And unto springs of water, will he conduct them.
Ba za su taɓa jin yunwa ko ƙishi ba, ba kuwa zafin hamada ko rana ta buge su ba. Shi da ya yi musu jinƙai zai jagorance su ya kuma bishe su kusa da maɓulɓulan ruwa.
11 Then will I make of all my mountains, a road, And my highways, shall be upraised.
Zan mayar da dukan duwatsu su zama hanyoyi, a kuma gyara manyan hanyoyina.
12 Lo! these, from afar, shall come in, —And lo! these, from the North and from the West, And these, from the land of Sinim.
Duba, za su zo daga nesa waɗansu daga arewa, waɗansu daga yamma, waɗansu daga yankin Aswan.”
13 Shout in triumph—O heavens! And exult—O earth! And break forth, ye mountains, into shouts of triumph, —For Yahweh hath comforted his people, And on his humbled ones, taketh he compassion.
Ku yi sowa don farin ciki, ya ku sammai; ki yi farin ciki, ya ke duniya; ku ɓarke da waƙa, ya ku duwatsu! Gama Ubangiji ya ta’azantar da mutanensa zai kuma ji tausayin mutanensa da suke shan wahala.
14 But Zion had said. Yahweh hath forsaken me, —Even, My Lord, hath forgotten me!
Amma Sihiyona ta ce, “Ubangiji ya yashe ni, Ubangiji ya manta da ni.”
15 Can, a woman, forget, her sucking child, Past taking compassion on the son of her womb? Even these, may forget, Yet will, I, not forget, thee:
“Yana yiwuwa mahaifiya ta manta da jariri a ƙirjinta ta kuma kāsa nuna tausayi ga yaron da ta haifa? Mai yiwuwa ta manta, amma ba zan taɓa manta da ke ba!
16 Lo! on the palms of my hands, have I portrayed thee, —Thy walls are before me continually.
Duba, na zāna ki a tafin hannuwana; katangarki kullum suna a gabana.
17 In haste are thy sons, —They who have been tearing thee down and laying thee waste, out of thee, let them go forth!
’Ya’yanki maza su komo da gaggawa, waɗanda suka lalatar da ke kuwa za su bar ki.
18 Lift up, round about, thine eyes and see, All those, have gathered themselves together—have come to thee! As I live, Declareth Yahweh, —Surely all those as an ornament, shalt thou put on, And bind them about thee for a girdle as a bride.
Ki ɗaga idanunki ki duba kewaye; dukan’ya’yanki sun taru suka kuma dawo gare ki. Muddin ina raye,” in ji Ubangiji, “Za ki yafa su duka kamar kayan ado; za ki yi ado da su, kamar amarya.
19 Surely, as for thy wastes, and thy desolations, and thy land of ruins, Surely, now, shalt thou be too strait for thine inhabitants, And, far off, shall be they who have been swallowing thee up.
“Ko da yake an lalatar da ke aka kuma mai da ke kufai ƙasarki kuma ta zama kango, yanzu za ki kāsa sosai saboda yawan mutanenki, kuma waɗanda suka cinye ki za su kasance can da nisa.
20 The children of whom thou wast bereaved shall yet say in thine ears, —Too strait for me, is the place Make room for me that I may settle down.
’Ya’yan da aka haifa a lokacin baƙin cikinki za su ce a kunnenki, ‘Wannan wuri ya yi mana kaɗan ƙwarai; ki ƙara mana wurin zama.’
21 Then shalt thou say in thy heart, —Who hath borne me, these, Seeing, I, have been bereaved and unfruitful, a captive and banished? These, therefore, who hath brought them up? Lo! I, was left, alone, These, where were they?
Sa’an nan za ki ce a zuciyarki, ‘Wa ya haifa waɗannan? Na yi baƙin ciki na kuma zama wadda ba ta haihuwa; an yi mini daurin talala aka kuma ƙi ni. Wane ne ya yi renon waɗannan? An bar ni ni kaɗai, amma waɗannan, ina suka fito?’”
22 Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh—Lo! I will lift up, unto nations my hand, Yea unto peoples, will I raise high my banner, —And they shall bring in thy sons in their bosom, And, thy daughters, on the shoulder shall be borne;
Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka ya ce, “Duba, zan yi alama wa Al’ummai, zan ɗaga tutana wa mutane; za su kawo’ya’yanki maza a hannuwansu su riƙe’ya’yanki mata a kafaɗunsu.
23 And, kings, shall be, thy foster-fathers. And their queens, thy nursing mothers, With face to the ground, shall they bow down to thee, The dust of thy feet, shall they lick, —So shalt thou know that, I, am Yahweh, In that, they shall not be put to shame, Who were waiting for me.
Sarakuna za su zama kamar iyayen reno, sarauniyoyinsu kuma za su yi renonku kamar uwaye. Za su rusuna a gabanki da fuskokinsu har ƙasa; za su lashe ƙura a ƙafafunki. Sa’an nan za ki san cewa ni ne Ubangiji; waɗanda suke sa zuciya gare ni ba za su sha kunya ba.”
24 Shall prey, be taken from a mighty one? Or the captive of one in the right, be delivered?
Za a iya ƙwace ganima daga jarumawa, ko a kuɓutar da kamammu daga hannun marasa tsoro?
25 Surely, thus, saith Yahweh—Even the captive of the mighty one, shall be taken away, And the prey of the tyrant, be delivered; And thine opposers, I, will oppose, And thy children, I, will save;
Amma ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “I, za a ƙwace kamammu daga jarumawa, a kuma karɓe ganima daga hannun marasa tsoro; zan gwabza da waɗanda suke gwabzawa da ke, zan kuwa ceci’ya’yanki.
26 Then will I feed thy tormentors with their own flesh, And as with new wine—with their own blood, shall they be drunk, —So shall all flesh, know, that, I—Yahweh, am thy Saviour, And, thy Redeemer, is the Mighty One of Jacob.
Zan sa masu zaluntarki su ci naman jikinsu; za su bugu da jininsu, sai ka ce sun sha ruwan inabi. Sa’an nan dukan mutane za su sani cewa ni, Ubangiji, ni ne Mai Cetonki, Mai Fansarki, Maɗaukakin nan na Yaƙub.”
