< 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 Visions of Isaiah son of Amoz, that he hath seen concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
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.
Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth, For Jehovah hath spoken: Sons I have nourished and brought up, And they — they transgressed 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.”
An ox hath known its owner, And an ass the crib of its master, Israel hath not known, My people hath not understood.
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, sinning nation, a people heavy [with] iniquity, A seed of evil doers, sons — corrupters! They have forsaken Jehovah, They have despised the Holy One of Israel, They have gone away 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.
Wherefore are ye stricken any more? Ye do add apostasy! Every head is become diseased, and every heart [is] sick.
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 — unto the head, There is no soundness in it, Wound, and bruise, and fresh smiting! They have not been closed nor bound, Nor have they softened with ointment.
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 land [is] a desolation, your cities burnt with fire, Your ground, before you strangers are consuming it, And a desolation 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.
And left hath been the daughter of Zion, As a booth in a vineyard, As a lodge in a place of cucumbers — as a city besieged.
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 Jehovah of Hosts had left to us a remnant, Shortly — as Sodom we had been, To Gomorrah we had been like!
10 Ku saurari maganar Ubangiji, ku masu mulkin Sodom; ku kasa kunne ga dokar Allahnmu, ku mutanen Gomorra!
Hear the word of Jehovah, ye rulers of Sodom, Give ear to the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah,
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.
'Why to Me the abundance of your sacrifices? saith Jehovah, I have been satiated [with] burnt-offerings of rams, And fat of fatlings; And blood of bullocks, and lambs, And he-goats I have not desired.
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 ye come in to appear before Me, Who hath required this of 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.
Add not to bring in a vain present, Incense — an abomination it [is] to Me, New moon, and sabbath, calling of convocation! Rendure not iniquity — and a restraint!
14 Bukukkuwanku na Sabon Wata da na tsarkakan ranaku na ƙi su. Sun zama mini kaya; na gaji da ɗaukansu.
Your new moons and your set seasons hath My soul hated, They have been upon me for a burden, I have been weary of bearing.
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!
And in your spreading forth your hands, I hide mine eyes from you, Also when ye increase prayer, I do not hear, Your hands of blood have been full.
16 Ku yi wanka ku kuma tsabtacce kanku. Ku kawar da mugayen ayyukanku daga gabana; Ku daina aikata mugunta.
Wash ye, make ye pure, Turn aside the evil of your doings, from before Mine eyes, Cease to do evil, learn to do good.
17 Ku koyi yin nagarta; ku nemi adalci. Ku ƙarfafa waɗanda aka zalunta. Ku ba wa marayu hakkinsu, ku taimaki gwauruwa.
Seek judgment, make happy the oppressed, Judge the fatherless, strive [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, I pray you, and we reason, saith Jehovah, If your sins are as scarlet, as snow they shall be white, If they are red as crimson, as wool they shall be!
19 In kuna da niyya kuna kuma yi mini biyayya, za ku ci abubuwa masu kyau daga ƙasar;
If ye are willing, and have hearkened, The good of the land ye consume,
20 amma in kuka yi tsayayya kuka kuma yi tayarwa, za a kashe ku da takobi.” Ni Ubangiji na faɗa.
And if ye refuse, and have rebelled, [By] the sword ye are consumed, For the mouth of Jehovah hath spoken.
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 hath a faithful city become a harlot? I have filled it [with] judgment, Righteousness lodgeth in it — now murderers.
22 Azurfarki ta zama jebu, an gauraye ruwan inabinki mafi kyau da ruwa.
Thy silver hath become dross, Thy drink polluted 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.
Thy princes [are] apostates, and companions of thieves, Every one loving a bribe, and pursuing rewards, The fatherless they judge not, And the plea of the widow cometh not 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 affirmation of the Lord — Jehovah of Hosts, the Mighty One of Israel: Ah, I am eased of Mine adversaries, And I am avenged of Mine enemies,
25 Zan juye hannuna a kanki; zan wanke ke sarai in fitar da dukan ƙazantarki.
And I turn back My hand upon thee, And I refine as purity thy dross, And I turn aside all thy 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.”
And I give back thy judges as at the first, And thy counsellors as in the beginning, After this thou art called, 'A city of righteousness — a faithful city.'
27 Za a fanshi Sihiyona da adalci, masu tubanta kuma da aikin gaskiya.
Zion in judgment is redeemed, And her captivity in righteousness.
28 Amma za a karye’yan tawaye da masu zunubi, waɗanda suka rabu da Ubangiji kuma za su hallaka.
And the destruction of transgressors and sinners [is] together, And those forsaking Jehovah are 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 [men] are ashamed because of the oaks That ye have desired, And ye are confounded because of the gardens That ye have chosen.
30 Za ku zama kamar itacen oak mai busasshen ganyaye, kamar lambu marar ruwa.
For ye are as an oak whose leaf is fading, And as a garden that hath 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.”
And the strong hath been for tow, And his work for a spark, And burned have both of them together, And there is none quenching!
