Ishaya 16
1 Ku aiko da raguna a matsayin haraji ga mai mulkin ƙasar, daga Sela a hamada, zuwa dutsen Diyar Sihiyona.
Send ye the lambs for the ruler of the land from the crags that are toward the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
2 Kamar tsuntsaye masu firiya da aka kora daga sheƙa, haka matan Mowab suke a kogunan Arnon.
For it shall be that, as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so shall the daughters of Moab be at the fords of Arnon.
3 “Ku ba mu shawara, ku yanke shawara. Ku mai da inuwarku kamar dare, a tsakar rana. Ku ɓoye masu gudun hijira, kada ku bashe masu neman mafaka.
'Give counsel, execute justice; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; betray not the fugitive.
4 Ku bar Mowabawa masu gudun hijira su zauna tare da ku; ku zama mafakarsu daga mai neman hallaka su.” Mai danniya zai zo ga ƙarshe hallaka kuma za tă daina; masu lalatar da ƙasa za su kare
Let mine outcasts dwell with thee; as for Moab, be thou a covert to him from the face of the spoiler.' For the extortion is at an end, spoiling ceaseth, they that trampled down are consumed out of the land;
5 Da ƙauna za a kafa kursiyi; da aminci mutum zai zauna a kansa, wani daga gidan Dawuda, wani wanda ta shari’antawa yakan nuna gaskiya ya hanzarta yin adalci.
And a throne is established through mercy, and there sitteth thereon in truth, in the tent of David, one that judgeth, and seeketh justice, and is ready in righteousness.
6 Mun ji fariyar Mowab, mun ji yawan fariyarta da girmankanta, fariyarta da reninta, amma taƙamarsu ta banza ce.
We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud; even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his arrogancy, his ill-founded boastings.
7 Saboda haka Mowabawa za su yi kuka mai zafi, za su yi kuka mai zafi tare saboda Mowab. Ku yi makoki ku kuma yi baƙin ciki saboda ƙosai da kuka riƙa ci a Kir Hareset.
Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, every one shall wail; for the sweet cakes of Kir-hareseth shall ye mourn, sorely stricken.
8 Gonakin Heshbon sun bushe, inabin Sibma ma haka. Masu mulkin al’ummai sun tattake inabi mafi kyau, waɗanda suka taɓa yaɗuwa zuwa Yazer suka bazu ta wajen hamada. Tohonsu sun buɗu suka kai har teku.
For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah, whose choice plants did overcome the lords of nations; they reached even unto Jazer, they wandered into the wilderness; her branches were spread abroad, they passed over the sea.
9 Saboda haka na yi kuka, yadda Yazer take kuka, saboda inabin Sibma. Ya Heshbon, ya Eleyale, na cika ku da hawaye! Sowa ta murna a kanku saboda’ya’yan itatuwanku da suka nuna da kuma girbinku sun ɓace.
Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah; I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh; for upon thy summer fruits and upon thy harvest the battle shout is fallen.
10 An ɗauke farin ciki da murna daga gonakin itatuwa masu’ya’ya; babu wanda yake rerawa ko yake sowa a cikin gonakin inabi; babu wanda yake matsin ruwan inabi a wuraren matsi, gama na kawo ƙarshen yin sowa.
And gladness and joy are taken away out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting; no treader shall tread out wine in the presses; I have made the vintage shout to cease.
11 Zuciyata tana makoki saboda Mowab kamar garaya, na yi baƙin ciki saboda Kir Hareset.
Wherefore my heart moaneth like a harp for Moab, and mine inward parts for Kir-heres.
12 Sa’ad Mowab ta bayyana a masujadar bisa tudu, tana gajiyar da kanta ne kawai; sa’ad da ta tafi wurin tsafinta don tă yi addu’a, babu wani amfani.
And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab hath wearied himself upon the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail
13 Wannan ita ce maganar da Ubangiji ya riga ya yi game da Mowab.
This is the word that the LORD spoke concerning Moab in time past.
14 Amma yanzu Ubangiji ya ce, “Cikin shekara uku, kamar yadda bawan da aka bautar da shi bisa ga yarjejjeniya zai lissafta, haka za a mai da daraja da kuma dukan yawan mutanen Mowab abin reni, daga ɗumbun mutanenta,’yan kaɗan ne kaɗai za su ragu, za su kuma zama marasa ƙarfi.”
But now the LORD hath spoken, saying: 'Within three years, as the years of a hireling, and the glory of Moab shall wax contemptible for all his great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and without strength.'
