< Ishaya 1 >

1 Wahayi game da Yahuda da Urushalima wanda Ishaya ɗan Amoz ya gani a zamanin da Uzziya, Yotam, Ahaz da Hezekiya, suka yi mulkin Yahuda.
The vision of Isaiah [Salvation of Yah] the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah [Praised] and Jerusalem [City of peace], in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah [Praised].
2 Ku kasa kunne, ya sammai! Ki saurara, ya duniya! Gama Ubangiji ya yi magana, “Na yi renon’ya’ya, na kuma raya su, amma sun tayar mini.
Sh'ma ·Hear obey·, heavens, and listen, earth; for Adonai has spoken: “I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.
3 Saniya ta san maigidanta, jaki ya san wurin sa wa dabbobi abinci maigidansa, amma Isra’ila ba su sani, mutanena ba su gane ba.”
The ox knows his owner, and the donkey his master’s crib; but Israel [God prevails] does not know, my people don’t consider.”
4 Kash, ya ke al’umma mai zunubi, mutane cike da laifi, tarin masu aikata mugunta,’ya’yan da aka miƙa wa lalaci! Sun yashe Ubangiji; sun rena Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila suka juya masa baya.
Ah sinful nation, a people loaded with iniquity, offspring of evildoers, children who deal corruptly! They have forsaken Adonai. They have despised the haKadosh Isra'el [the Holy One of God prevails]. They are estranged and backward.
5 Me ya sa za a ƙara yin muku dūka? Me ya sa kuka nace ga yin tayarwa? An yi wa dukan kanku rauni, zuciyarku duk tana ciwo.
Why should you be beaten more, that you revolt more and more? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
6 Daga tafin ƙafarku zuwa saman kanku ba lafiya, sai miyaku da ƙujewa da manyan gyambuna, ba a tsabtacce su ba ko a daure ko shafa musu magani.
From the sole of the foot even to the head there is no soundness in it: wounds, welts, and open sores. They haven’t been closed, neither bandaged, neither soothed with oil.
7 Ƙasarku ta zama kufai, an ƙone biranenku da wuta; baƙi suna ƙwace gonakinku a idanunku, ta zama kango kamar sa’ad da baƙi suka rushe ta.
Your country is desolate. Your cities are burned with fire. Strangers devour your land in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
8 An bar diyar Sihiyona kamar rumfar mai ƙumu a gonar inabi, kamar bukka a gonar kabewa, kamar birnin da aka kewaye da yaƙi.
The daughter of Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking] is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a hut in a field of melons, like a besieged city.
9 Da ba a ce Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya bar mana raguwar masu rai ba, da mun zama kamar Sodom, da mun zama kamar Gomorra.
Unless Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] had left to us a very small remnant, we would have been as Sodom [Burning]; we would have been like Gomorrah [Rebellious people, Tyrants].
10 Ku saurari maganar Ubangiji, ku masu mulkin Sodom; ku kasa kunne ga dokar Allahnmu, ku mutanen Gomorra!
Sh'ma ·Hear obey· Adonai’s word, you rulers of Sodom [Burning]! Listen to the Torah ·Teaching· of our God, you people of Gomorrah [Rebellious people, Tyrants]!
11 Ubangiji ya ce, “Yawan hadayunku, mene ne suke a gare ni?” Ina da isashen hadayun ƙonawa, na raguna da na kitsen dabbobi masu ƙiba; ba na jin daɗin jinin bijimai da na tumaki da kuma na awaki.
“What are the multitude of your sacrifices to me?,” says Adonai. “I have had enough of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed animals. I don’t delight in the blood of bulls, or of lambs, or of male goats.
12 Sa’ad da kuka zo don ku bayyana a gabana, wa ya nemi wannan daga gare ku, da kuke kai da kawowa a filayen gidana?
When you come to appear before me, who has required this at your hand, to trample my courts?
13 Ku daina kawo hadayu marasa amfani! Turarenku abin ƙyama ne gare ni. Ina ƙin bukukkuwanku na Sabon Wata, da na ranakun Asabbaci, da taronku na addini, ba zan iya jure wa mugun taronku ba.
Bring no more vain offerings. Incense is an abomination to me; new moons, Sabbaths, and convocations: I can’t bear with evil assemblies.
14 Bukukkuwanku na Sabon Wata da na tsarkakan ranaku na ƙi su. Sun zama mini kaya; na gaji da ɗaukansu.
My soul hates your New Moons and your appointed feasts. They are a burden to me. I am weary of bearing them.
15 Sa’ad da kuka ɗaga hannuwanku wajen yin addu’a, zan ɓoye fuskata daga gare ku; ko da kun miƙa addu’o’i masu yawa, ba zan kasa kunne ba. Hannuwanku sun cika da jini!
When you spread out your hands, I will hide my eyes from you. Yes, when you make many prayers, I will not sh'ma ·hear obey·. Your hands are full of blood.
16 Ku yi wanka ku kuma tsabtacce kanku. Ku kawar da mugayen ayyukanku daga gabana; Ku daina aikata mugunta.
Wash yourselves, make yourself clean. Put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes. Cease to do evil.
17 Ku koyi yin nagarta; ku nemi adalci. Ku ƙarfafa waɗanda aka zalunta. Ku ba wa marayu hakkinsu, ku taimaki gwauruwa.
Learn to do well. Seek mishpat ·justice·. Relieve the oppressed. Judge the orphan. Plead for the widow.”
18 Ubangiji ya ce, “Yanzu fa ku zo, bari mu dubi batun nan tare, Ko da zunubanku sun yi ja kamar garura, za su zama fari kamar ƙanƙara; ko da sun yi ja kamar mulufi, za su zama kamar ulu.
“Come now, and let us reason together,” says Adonai: “Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. Though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 In kuna da niyya kuna kuma yi mini biyayya, za ku ci abubuwa masu kyau daga ƙasar;
If you are willing and sh'ma ·hearing obedient·, you shall eat the good of the land;
20 amma in kuka yi tsayayya kuka kuma yi tayarwa, za a kashe ku da takobi.” Ni Ubangiji na faɗa.
but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword; for the mouth of Adonai has spoken it.”
21 Dubi yadda amintacciyar birni ta zama karuwa! Dā ta cika da yin gaskiya; dā masu adalci a can suke zama, amma yanzu sai masu kisankai kaɗai!
How the faithful city has become a prostitute! She was full of mishpat ·justice·; righteousness lodged in her, but now murderers.
22 Azurfarki ta zama jebu, an gauraye ruwan inabinki mafi kyau da ruwa.
Your silver has become dross, your wine mixed with water.
23 Masu mulkinki’yan tawaye ne, abokan ɓarayi; dukansu suna ƙaunar cin hanci suna bin kyautai. Ba sa taɓa tsare marayu a ɗakin shari’a; ba sa taimakon gwauruwa.
Your princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves. Everyone 'ahav ·affectionately loves· bribes, and follows after rewards. They don’t judge the orphan, neither does the cause of the widow come to them.
24 Saboda haka Ubangiji, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Mai Iko nan na Isra’ila, ya furta, “Kai, zan sami hutu daga maƙiyana in kuma yi ramuwa a kan abokan gābana.
Therefore the Lord, Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], the Mighty One of Israel [God prevails], says: “Ah, I will get relief from my adversaries, and avenge myself on my enemies;
25 Zan juye hannuna a kanki; zan wanke ke sarai in fitar da dukan ƙazantarki.
and I will turn my hand on you, thoroughly purge away your dross, and will take away all your tin.
26 Zan maido da alƙalanki kamar yadda suke a dā can, mashawartanki kamar yadda suke da fari. Bayan haka za a ce da ke Birnin Masu Adalci, Amintacciyar Birni.”
I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called ‘The city of righteousness, a faithful town.’
27 Za a fanshi Sihiyona da adalci, masu tubanta kuma da aikin gaskiya.
Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking] shall be redeemed with mishpat ·justice·, and her converts with righteousness.
28 Amma za a karye’yan tawaye da masu zunubi, waɗanda suka rabu da Ubangiji kuma za su hallaka.
But the destruction of transgressors and sinners shall be together, and those who forsake Adonai shall be consumed.
29 “Za ku ji kunya saboda masujadan ƙarƙashin itatuwan oak da kuka yi farin ciki; za a kunyata ku saboda lambun da kuka zaɓa.
For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which you have desired, and you shall be confounded for the gardens that you have chosen.
30 Za ku zama kamar itacen oak mai busasshen ganyaye, kamar lambu marar ruwa.
For you shall be as an oak whose leaf fades, and as a garden that has no water.
31 Mutum mai ƙarfi zai zama kamar rama, aikinsa kuma kamar tartsatsin wuta; duka za su ƙone tare, ba kuwa wanda zai kashe wutar.”
The strong will be like tinder, and his work like a spark. They will both burn together, and no one will quench them.”
