< Isaiah 55 >
1 Ho! every one that thirsteth! Come ye to the waters, Yea he that hath no money, —Come ye—buy corn, and eat, Yea come—buy corn without money, And without price, wine and milk,
“Ẹ wá, gbogbo ẹ̀yin tí òǹgbẹ ń gbẹ, ẹ wá sí ibi omi; àti ẹ̀yin tí kò ní owó; ẹ wá, ẹ rà kí ẹ sì jẹ! Ẹ wá ra wáìnì àti wàrà láìsí owó àti láìdíyelé.
2 Wherefore should ye spend, Money, for that which is not bread? Or your labour, for that which, satisfieth not? Keep on hearkening unto me, And, so eat that which is good, And let your soul take exquisite delight in fatness:
Èéṣe tí ẹ fi ń ná owó fún èyí tí kì í ṣe àkàrà àti làálàá yín lórí ohun tí kì í tẹ́nilọ́rùn? Tẹ́tí sílẹ̀, tẹ́tí sí mi, kí ẹ sì jẹ èyí tí ó dára, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọkàn yín yóò láyọ̀ nínú ọrọ̀ tí ó bójúmu.
3 Incline your ear, and come unto me, Hearken, That your soul, may live, —That I may solemnise for you a covenant age-abiding, The Lovingkindness to David, well-assured.
Tẹ́tí sílẹ̀ kí o sì wá sọ́dọ̀ mi; gbọ́ tèmi, kí ọkàn rẹ lè wà láààyè. Èmi yóò dá májẹ̀mú ayérayé pẹ̀lú rẹ, ìfẹ́ òtítọ́ tí mo ṣèlérí fún Dafidi.
4 Lo! As a witness to the peoples, have I given him, —As a leader and commander to the peoples:
Kíyèsi i, mo ti fi òun ṣe ẹlẹ́rìí fún àwọn ènìyàn, olórí àti apàṣẹ fún àwọn ènìyàn.
5 Lo! A nation thou shalt not know, shalt thou call, And, a nation which hath not known thee, unto thee, shall run, —For the sake of Yahweh thy God, And for the Holy One of Israel, because he hath adorned thee.
Lóòtítọ́ ìwọ yóò ké sí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè tí ìwọ kò mọ̀ àti orílẹ̀-èdè tí ìwọ kò mọ̀ ni yóò sáré tọ̀ ọ́ wá, nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ Ẹni Mímọ́ Israẹli nítorí pé ó ti fi ohun dídára dá ọ lọ́lá.”
6 Seek Yahweh while he may be found, —Call ye upon him while he is near:
Ẹ wá Olúwa nígbà tí ẹ lè rí i; ẹ pè é nígbà tí ó wà nítòsí.
7 Let the lawless forsake his way, And the man of iniquity, his thoughts, —And let him return unto Yahweh That he may have compassion upon him, And unto our God, For he will abundantly pardon.
Jẹ́ kí ìkà kí ó kọ ọ̀nà rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ àti ènìyàn búburú èrò rẹ̀. Jẹ́ kí ó yípadà sí Olúwa, Òun yóò sì ṣàánú fún un, àti sí Ọlọ́run wa, nítorí Òun yóò sì dáríjì.
8 For, my thoughts, are not, your thoughts, Nor, your ways, my ways, —Declareth Yahweh.
“Nítorí èrò mi kì í ṣe èrò yín, tàbí ọ̀nà yín a ha máa ṣe ọ̀nà mi,” ni Olúwa wí.
9 For, higher, are the heavens than the earth, —So, higher, are My ways than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.
“Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀run ti ga ju ayé lọ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọ̀nà mi ga ju ọ̀nà yín lọ àti èrò mi ju èrò yín lọ.
10 For, as the rain and the snow descend from the heavens. And thither, do not return, Except they have watered the earth. And caused it to bring forth and bud, —And given seed to the sower, and bread to the eater,
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí òjò àti yìnyín ti wálẹ̀ láti ọ̀run tí kì í sì padà sí ibẹ̀ láì bomirin ilẹ̀ kí ó sì mú kí ó tanná kí ó sì rudi, tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí yóò fi mú irúgbìn fún afúnrúgbìn àti àkàrà fún ọ̀jẹun,
11 So, shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth, It shall not return unto me void, —But shall accomplish that which I please, And shall prosper in that whereunto I have sent it.
bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọ̀rọ̀ mi tí ó jáde láti ẹnu mi wá; kì yóò padà sọ́dọ̀ mi lọ́wọ́ òfo, ṣùgbọ́n yóò ṣe ohun tí mo fẹ́, yóò sì mú ète mi tí mo fi rán an wá sí ìmúṣẹ.
12 For with gladness shall ye come forth, And in peace, shall ye be led, —the mountains and the hills shall break out, before you, into shouts of triumph, And all the wild trees shall clap their hands:
Ẹ̀yin yóò jáde lọ ní ayọ̀ a ó sì darí i yín lọ ní àlàáfíà; òkè ńlá ńlá àti kéékèèké yóò bú sí orin níwájú yín àti gbogbo igi inú pápá yóò máa pàtẹ́wọ́.
13 Instead of the thorn-bush, shall come up the fir-tree, And instead of the nettle, shall come up the myrtle-tree, —So shall it become unto Yahweh, a Name, A Sign age-abiding, which shall not be cut off.
Dípò igi ẹ̀gún ni igi junifa yóò máa dàgbà, àti dípò ẹ̀wọ̀n, maritili ni yóò yọ. Èyí yóò wà fún òkìkí Olúwa, fún àmì ayérayé, tí a kì yóò lè parun.”
