Isaiah 8
1 And Jehovah saith unto me, 'Take to thee a great tablet, and write upon it with a graving tool of man, To haste spoil, enjoy prey.'
Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Ka ɗauki naɗaɗɗen littafi mai girma ka yi rubutu a kai da alƙalami kurum, Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.
2 And I cause faithful witnesses to testify to me, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah son of Jeberechiah.
Zan kuma kira Uriya firist da Zakariya ɗan Yeberekiya su zama mini amintattun shaidu.”
3 And I draw near unto the prophetess, and she conceiveth, and beareth a son; and Jehovah saith unto me, 'Call his name Maher-shalal-hash-baz,
Sa’an nan na tafi na yi jima’i da annabiya, ta kuwa yi ciki ta haifi ɗa. Ubangiji kuma ya ce mini, “Raɗa masa suna, Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.
4 for before the youth doth know to cry, My father, and My mother, one taketh away the wealth of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria, before the king of Asshur.'
Kafin yaron yă san yadda zai ce ‘Babana’ ko ‘Mamana,’ sarkin Assuriya zai kwashe arzikin Damaskus da ganimar Samariya.”
5 And Jehovah addeth to speak unto me again, saying:
Ubangiji ya sāke yi mini magana ya ce,
6 'Because that this people hath refused The waters of Shiloah that go softly, And is rejoicing with Rezin and the son of Remaliah,
“Domin wannan jama’a ta ƙi natsattsen ruwan rafin Shilowa suka yi ta farin ciki a kan Rezin ɗan Remaliya,
7 Therefore, lo, the Lord is bringing up on them, The waters of the river, the mighty and the great, (The king of Asshur, and all his glory, ) And it hath gone up over all its streams, And hath gone on over all its banks.
saboda haka Ubangiji yana shirin yă kawo musu rigyawar ruwan Kogi, wato, sarkin Assuriya da dukan sojojinsa. Zai cika dukan gaɓoɓinsa, yă kuma malala har zuwa bakin kogi.
8 And it hath passed on into Judah, It hath overflown and passed over, Unto the neck it cometh, And the stretching out of its wings Hath been the fulness of the breadth of thy land, O Emmanu-El!
Yă yi ta malala har zuwa cikin Yahuda, yă shafe ta, yana ratsa ta ciki har yă kai kafaɗa. Fikafikansa da ya buɗe za su rufe fāɗin ƙasarka, Ya Immanuwel!”
9 Be friends, O nations, and be broken, And give ear, all ye far off ones of earth, Gird yourselves, and be broken, Gird yourselves, and be broken.
Ku yi kururuwar yaƙi, ku ƙasashe, ku kuma ji tsoro! Ku saurara, dukanku manisantan ƙasashe. Ku shirya don yaƙi, ku kuma ji tsoro!
10 Take counsel, and it is broken, Speak a word, and it doth not stand, Because of Emmanu-El!'
Ku ƙirƙiro dabarunku, amma ba za su yi nasara ba; ku ƙulla shirye-shiryenku, amma ba za su yi amfani ba, gama Allah yana tare da mu.
11 For thus hath Jehovah spoken unto me with strength of hand, and instructeth me against walking in the way of this people, saying,
Ubangiji ya yi mini magana da hannunsa mai ƙarfi a kaina, yana yi mini gargaɗi kada in bi hanyar waɗannan mutane. Ya ce,
12 'Ye do not say, A confederacy, To all to whom this people saith, A confederacy, And its fear ye do not fear, Nor declare fearful.
“Kada ka kira wani abu makirci game da kome da waɗannan mutane suke kira makirci; kada ji tsoron abin da suke tsoro, kada kuma ka firgita game da shi.
13 Jehovah of Hosts — Him ye do sanctify, And He [is] your Fear, and He your Dread,
Ubangiji Maɗaukaki shi ne za ka ɗauka a matsayi mai tsarki, shi ne wanda za ka ji tsoro, shi ne za ka yi rawar jiki a gabansa,
14 And He hath been for a sanctuary, And for a stone of stumbling, and for a rock of falling, To the two houses of Israel, For a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
zai kuwa kasance a wuri mai tsarki; amma ga dukan gidajen Isra’ila zai zama dutsen da zai sa mutane su yi tuntuɓe dutse kuma da zai sa su fāɗi. Ga dukan mutanen Urushalima kuma zai zama tarko da raga.
15 And many among them have stumbled and fallen, And been broken, and snared, and captured.
Yawancinsu za su yi tuntuɓe; za su fāɗi a kuwa ragargaza su, za a sa musu tarko a kuma kama su.”
16 Bind up the testimony, Seal the law among My disciples.
Ɗaura shaidar nan ta gargadi ka kuma yimƙe umarnin Allah a cikin almajiraina.
17 And I have waited for Jehovah, Who is hiding His face from the house of Jacob, And I have looked for Him.
Zan saurari Ubangiji, wanda ya ɓoye fuskarsa daga gidan Yaƙub. Zan dogara gare shi.
18 Lo, I, and the children whom Jehovah hath given to me, [Are] for signs and for wonders in Israel, From Jehovah of Hosts, who is dwelling in Mount Zion.
Ga ni, da yaran da Ubangiji ya ba ni. Mu alamu ne da shaidu a cikin Isra’ila daga Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, wanda yake zama a Dutsen Sihiyona.
19 And when they say unto you, 'Seek unto those having familiar spirits, And unto wizards, who chatter and mutter, Doth not a people seek unto its God? — For the living unto the dead!
Sa’ad da mutane suka ce muku ku nemi shawarar’yan bori da masu sihiri, waɗanda suke shaƙe murya har ba a jin abin da suke faɗi, bai kamata mutane su nemi shawara daga Allahnsu ba? Me zai sa ku nemi shawara daga matattu a madadin masu rai?
20 To the law and to the testimony! If not, let them say after this manner, 'That there is no dawn to it.'
Nemi umarnin Allah da kuma shaidar jan kunne. Duk wanda bai yi magana bisa ga wannan kalma ba, ba su da amfani.
21 — And it hath passed over into it, hardened and hungry, And it hath come to pass, That it is hungry, and hath been wroth, And made light of its king, and of its God, And hath looked upwards.
Cikin matsuwa da yunwa, za su yi ta kai komo ko’ina a ƙasar; sa’ad da suka ji yunwa, za su yi fushi su tā da idanu sama, su zagi sarkinsu da Allahnsu.
22 And unto the land it looketh attentively, And lo, adversity and darkness! — Dimness, distress, and thick darkness is driven away, But not the dimness for which she is in distress!
Sa’an nan za su zura wa ƙasa idanu, abin da za su gani kawai shi ne matsuwa da duhu da kuma abin banrazana, za a kuma jefa su cikin baƙin duhu.
