Ishaya 10
1 Kaiton waɗanda suke kafa dokokin rashin gaskiya, waɗanda suke ba da ƙa’idodin danniya,
Terrible things will happen to you judges who are unjust and who make unfair laws.
2 don su hana matalauta hakkinsu su kuma ƙi yin shari’ar gaskiya a kan waɗanda suke zaluntar mutanena, suna ƙwace wa gwauraye dukiyarsu suna kuma yi wa marayu ƙwace.
You refuse to help poor people, and you do not allow them to get the things that they should get. You [allow people to] steal things from widows and do unfair things to orphans.
3 Me za ku yi a ranan nan ta hukunci, sa’ad da masifa ta zo daga nesa? Ga wa za ku tafi don neman taimako? Ina za ku bar dukiyarku?
When I punish you by sending people from distant lands to cause you to experience disasters, (to whom will you run to get help?/there will be no one who can help you.) [RHQ] Your valuable possessions will certainly [not be safe] [RHQ] anywhere.
4 Babu abin da zai rage sai cizon haƙora a cikin kamammu ko mutuwa cikin waɗanda aka kashe. Duk da haka, fushinsa bai huce ba, hannunsa har yanzu yana a miƙe.
You will be able only to stumble along as you are taken away with other prisoners, or [else] your corpses will lie on the ground with others who have been killed. But even after that happens, Yahweh will still be very angry with you. He will still be ready to strike you again with his fist.
5 “Kaiton Assuriya, sandar fushina, a hannun da kulkin fushina yake!
[Yahweh says], “Terrible things will happen to Assyria. [It is true that their army] is like a rod/club [DOU] with which I [punish other nations] because I am very angry with those nations [DOU].
6 Na aike shi gāba da al’umma marar sanin Allah, na tura shi gāba da mutanen da suka ba ni fushi, don yă kwashe ganima yă kuma yi wason ganima, yă tattake su kamar laka a tituna.
[Sometimes] I send the armies of Assyria to attack a godless nation, to fight against [other] people who have caused me to be angry. I send them to capture people and to seize and take away their possessions, and to trample them like [SIM] people walk on mud in the streets.
7 Amma ba abin da ya yi niyya ke nan ba, ba abin da yake da shi a zuciya ba; manufarsa shi ne yă hallaka, yă kuma kawo ƙarshen al’ummai da yawa.
But the [king of Assyria] does not understand, he does not realize [that he is only like a weapon in my hand]. He wants [only] to destroy people, to get rid of many nations.
8 Ya ce, ‘Dukan shugabannin yaƙina ba sarakuna ba ne?’
He says, ‘All of my army commanders will soon be kings [of these nations that I conquer]!
9 ‘Kalno bai kasance kamar Karkemish ba? Hamat bai zama kamar Arfad Samariya kuma kamar Damaskus ba?
We destroyed Calno [city] like we destroyed Carchemish [city], We destroyed Hamath [city] like we destroyed Arpad [city]; we destroyed Samaria just like we destroyed Damascus.
10 Yadda hannuna ya ƙwace mulkokin gumaka, mulkokin da siffofinsu suka fi na Urushalima da Samariya,
We were able to destroy [all] those kingdoms [that were full] of idols, kingdoms whose idols were greater than the idols in Jerusalem and Samaria.
11 ba zan yi da Urushalima da siffofinta yadda na yi da Samariya da gumakanta ba?’”
So we will defeat Jerusalem and destroy the idols that are there, just like we destroyed Samaria and the idols that were there!’
12 Sa’ad da Ubangiji ya gama dukan aikinsa gāba da Dutsen Sihiyona da Urushalima, zai ce, “Zan hukunta sarkin Assuriya saboda fariya na gangancin zuciyarsa da kuma kallon reni na idanunsa.
[But, I, Yahweh, say that] after I [have used Assyria to] finish what I want to do to punish the people in Jerusalem [DOU], I will punish the king of Assyria because he has been very proud and arrogant/boastful [DOU].
13 Gama ya ce, “‘Ta wurin ƙarfin hannuna ne na aikata wannan, da kuma ta wurin hikimata, gama ina da fahimi. Na kau da iyakokin ƙasashe, na washe dukiyarsu; a matsayina na mai iko, na mamaye sarakunansu.
He says, ‘By my own great power [MTY] I have done these things. I have been able to do them because I am very wise and very intelligent. My army removed the barriers [at the borders] of nations and carried away all their valuable things. My army has knocked down their kings like [SIM] a ferocious bull would.
14 Kamar yadda mutum yakan miƙa hannu cikin sheƙar tsuntsu haka hannuna ya je ya washe dukiyar al’ummai; kamar yadda mutane sukan tattara ƙwai, haka na tattara dukan ƙasashe; ba tsuntsun da ya kakkaɓe fikafiki, ko yă buɗe baki don yă yi kuka.’”
Like [MET] a farmer reaches into a bird’s nest [to take away the eggs], we have taken away the treasures of other countries [DOU]. The people were not like birds that would flap their wings or chirp loudly [to protest about their eggs being stolen]; the people did not object at all [to their treasures being stolen].’
15 Gatari ya taɓa fin wanda yake amfani da shi girma, ko zarto yă yi wa wanda yake amfani da shi taƙama? Sanda za tă girgiza mutumin da yake riƙe da ita, ko kuwa kulki yă jijjiga mutumin da yake riƙe da katako!
[But I, Yahweh, say that] an axe certainly cannot [RHQ] boast about being stronger than the person who uses it, and a saw is not greater than the person who uses it. A rod cannot control the one who holds it [RHQ], and a wooden club cannot lift up a person [RHQ]. [So the king of Assyria should not boast that he has done these things with his own wisdom and strength].
16 Saboda haka Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, zai aukar da cuta mai kisa a kan ƙosassu jarumawa; a ƙarƙashin sansaninsa zai ƙuna wuta kamar harshen wuta.
And [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, will send a plague among the proud soldiers of Assyria; it will be like [MET] a fire that will kill them and get rid of their glory/wealth.
17 Hasken Isra’ila zai zo kamar wuta, Mai Tsarkinsu zai zama kamar wuta; a rana guda zai ƙone yă kuma cinye ƙayayyuwa da sarƙaƙƙiyarsa.
[I], Yahweh, who am like [MET] a light for the people of Israel, will be the fire; [I], the Holy One, will be like a flame. [The soldiers of Assyria are like] [MET] thorns and briers, and I will burn them up in one night.
18 Darajar jejinsa da gonakinsa masu dausayi za a hallaka su ɗungum, kamar yadda ciwo yakan kashe mutum.
There are glorious forests and fertile farmlands in Assyria, but I will completely destroy them; they will be like [SIM] a [very] sick person who shrivels up and then dies.
19 Sauran itatuwan jejinsa kuma za su ragu ko ɗan ƙaramin yaro ma zai iya ƙidaya su.
There will be very few trees left in those forests; even a child will be able to count them.”
20 A wannan rana raguwar Isra’ila, waɗanda suka ragu na gidan Yaƙub, ba za su ƙara dogara ga wanda ya kusa hallaka su ba amma za su dogara ga Ubangiji, Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila.
In the future there will be only a few people left in Israel; not many descendants of Jacob will still be alive. [But] they will no longer rely on [the king of Assyria], [the king of the nation] that tried to destroy them. Instead, they will faithfully/sincerely trust in Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel.
21 Raguwa za tă komo, raguwar Yaƙub za su komo ga Maɗaukaki Allah.
Those Israelis will return to their mighty God.
22 Ko da yake mutanenka, ya Isra’ila, sun zama kamar yashin bakin teku, raguwa ce kurum za tă komo. A ƙaddara hallaka, mai mamayewa da mai adalci.
[Now], the people of Israel are as numerous as the grains of sand on the seashore, but only a few of them will return [from the countries to which they were exiled]. Yahweh has decided to destroy [most of the Israelis] and that is what [he must do because he is completely] just/righteous.
23 Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, zai sa hallakar da aka ƙaddara a kan dukan ƙasa ta faru.
[Yes, ] the Commander of the armies of angels has [already] decided to destroy the entire land [of Israel].
24 Saboda haka, ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Ya mutanena masu zama a Sihiyona, kada ku ji tsoron Assuriyawa, waɗanda suka dūke ku da sanda suka kuma ɗaga kulki a kanku, kamar yadda Masar ta yi.
This is what the Commander of the armies of angels says: “My people in Jerusalem, do not be afraid of the army of Assyria when they beat you with rods and clubs, like the men of Egypt did [to your ancestors long ago].
25 Ba da daɗewa ba fushina a kanku zai zo ga ƙarshe hasalata kuma za tă koma ga hallakarsu.”
Soon I will no longer be angry with you, and [then] I will be angry with the people of Assyria and destroy them!”
26 Ubangiji Maɗaukaki zai bulale su da tsumagiya, kamar sa’ad da ya bugi Midiyan a dutsen Oreb; zai kuma ɗaga sandarsa a bisa ruwaye, yadda ya yi a Masar.
The Commander of the armies of angels will whip them. He will do to them like he did when he helped Gideon [and his 300 soldiers] to defeat the [army of the] Midian people-group, and like he did when he showed his mighty power [MTY] [by causing the army of Egypt to drown] in the [Red] Sea.
27 A wannan rana zai ɗauke nauyi daga kafaɗarku, nauyinsu daga wuyanku; za a karye karkiya domin kun yi ƙiba ƙwarai.
Some day, Yahweh will cause the army of Assyria to stop oppressing you, [his people]; he will end your suffering and your being slaves of the people of Assyria [MET]; he will take away the load that you people of Judah have been carrying, and cause things to go well for you.
28 Sun shiga Ayiyat; sun bi ta Migron; sun adana tanade-tanade a Mikmash.
[The army of Assyria will enter northern Judah] near Aiath [town], they will go through Migron [town] and store their supplies at Micmash [town north of Jerusalem].
29 Suka ƙetare ta hanya, suka kuma ce, “Za mu kwana a Geba.” Rama ta firgita; Gibeya ta Shawulu ta gudu.
They will cross through a mountain pass and set up their tents at Geba [town]. [People in] Ramah [town] will tremble [because of being afraid]. [The people of] Gibeah [town], where King Saul [was born], will [all] run away.
30 Ki yi ihu, ya Diyar Gallim! Ki saurara, ya Layisha! Kayya, Anatot abin tausayi!
You people of Gallim [town] will cry out [for help]. You will shout to [the people of] Laish [city near Jerusalem] to warn them! [The people of] Anathoth [town] will suffer a lot.
31 Madmena tana gudu; mutanen Gebim sun ɓuya.
[The people of] Madmenah [town north of Jerusalem will all] be running away, and [the people of] Gebim [town close to Jerusalem] will be trying to hide.
32 A wannan rana za su dakata a Nob; za su jijjiga ƙarfinsu a dutsen Diyar Sihiyona, a tudun Urushalima.
The soldiers of Assyria will stop at Nob [city outside Jerusalem]. They will shake their fists [as they threaten the people] on Zion Hill in Jerusalem.
33 Duba, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, zai ragargaza rassa da iko mai girma. Za a sassare itatuwa masu ganyaye, za a yanke dogayen itatuwa har ƙasa.
But listen to this! The Commander of the armies of angels with his great power will destroy [MET] the mighty army of Assyria. [It is as though they are] a huge tree [MET] that he will cut down.
34 Zai sassare itatuwan jeji da gatari har ƙasa; Lebanon zai fāɗi a gaban Mai Iko.
He will destroy the [soldiers of Assyria] like men use big axes to cut down the tall trees in the forests of Lebanon.
