Ishaya 23
1 Abin da Allah ya faɗa game da Taya. Ku yi kuka mai zafi, ya jiragen ruwan Tarshish! Gama an hallaka Taya aka kuma bar su babu gida ko tasha. Daga ƙasar Saifurus magana ta zo musu.
A declaration about Tyre: Howl, you ships of Tarshish; for there is neither home nor harbor; from the land of Cyprus it has been revealed to them.
2 Ku yi shiru, ku mutanen tsibiri da ku’yan kasuwan Sidon waɗanda masu ciniki a teku suka azurta.
Be silent, you inhabitants of the coast; the merchant of Sidon, who travels over the sea, has filled you.
3 A manyan ruwaye hatsin Shihor suka iso; girbin Nilu ne kuɗin shiga na Taya ta kuma zama kasuwar al’ummai.
Upon the great waters was the grain of Shihor, the harvest of the Nile was her produce; and it became the commerce of the nations.
4 Ki ji kunya, ya ke Sidon, da ke kuma, kagarar teku, gama teku ya yi magana ya ce, “Ban taɓa naƙuda ba balle in haifi’ya’ya; ban taɓa goyon’ya’ya maza ba balle in reno’ya’ya mata.”
Be ashamed, Sidon; for the sea has spoken, the mighty one of the sea. He says, “I have not labored nor given birth, nor have I raised young men nor brought up young women.”
5 Sa’ad da magana ta kai Masar, za su razana da jin labari daga Taya.
When the report comes to Egypt, they will be grieved concerning Tyre.
6 Ku haye zuwa Tarshish; ku yi kuka mai zafi, ku mutanen tsibiri.
Cross over to Tarshish; wail, you inhabitants of the coast.
7 Wannan ce birnin murnanku, birnin nan na tun dā wadda ƙafafunta suka kai ta zama a ƙasashe masu nesa?
Has this happened to you, the joyful city, whose origin is from ancient times, whose feet carried her far away to foreign places to settle?
8 Wane ne ya ƙulla wannan a kan Taya ita da take ba da rawanin sarauta, wadda’yan kasuwanta sarakuna ne, wadda masu cinikinta sanannu ne a duniya?
Who has planned this against Tyre, the giver of crowns, whose merchants are princes, whose traders are the honored ones of the earth?
9 Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ƙulla shi, don yă kawo ƙarshen girman kan dukan darajarta ya kuma ƙasƙantar da dukan waɗanda suke sanannu a duniya.
Yahweh of hosts has planned it to dishonor her pride and all her glory, to shame all her honored ones of the earth.
10 Ki nome ƙasarki har zuwa wajen Nilu, Ya Diyar Tarshish, gama ba ki da tashan jirgin ruwa kuma.
Plow your land, as one plows the Nile, daughter of Tarshish. There is no longer a marketplace in Tyre.
11 Ubangiji ya miƙa hannunsa a bisa teku ya kuma sa mulkokinsa suka yi rawar jiki. Ya ba da umarni game da Funisiya cewa a hallaka kagararta.
Yahweh has reached out with his hand over the sea, and he has shaken the kingdoms; he has given a command concerning Phoenicia, to destroy the strongholds.
12 Ya ce, “Ba za ki ƙara yin murna ba, Ya ke Budurwa Diyar Sidon, yanzu da kike ragargajiya! “Tashi, ki ƙetare zuwa Saifurus; a can ɗin ma ba za ki huta ba.”
He said, “You will not rejoice again, oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon; arise, pass over to Cyprus; but neither there you will have rest.”
13 Dubi ƙasar Babiloniyawa, wannan mutanen da yanzu ba su da wani amfani! Assuriyawa sun mai da ita wurin zaman halittun hamada; sun gina hasumiyoyin kwanto, suka ragargaza kagararta ƙaf suka mai da ita kango.
See the land of the Chaldeans. This people has ceased to be; the Assyrians have made it a wilderness for wild animals. They set up their siege towers; they demolished its palaces; they made it a heap of ruins.
14 Ku yi kuka mai zafi, ku jiragen ruwan Tarshish; an rurrushe kagararku!
Howl, you ships of Tarshish; for your refuge has been destroyed.
15 A wannan lokaci za a manta da Taya har shekaru saba’in, tsawon rayuwar sarki. Amma a ƙarshen waɗannan shekaru saba’in, zai zama wa Taya kamar yadda yake a waƙar karuwa cewa,
In that day, Tyre will be forgotten for seventy years, like the days of a king. After the end of seventy years there will happen in Tyre something like in the song of the prostitute.
16 “Ɗauki garaya, ki ratsa birni, Ya ke karuwar da aka manta da ita; kaɗa garaya da kyau, ki rera waƙoƙi masu yawa, saboda a tuna da ke.”
Take a harp, go about the city, you forgotten prostitute; play it well, sing many songs, so that you may be remembered.
17 A ƙarshen shekaru saba’in, Ubangiji zai magance Taya. Za tă koma ga aikinta na karuwanci za tă kuma yi kasuwancinta da dukan mulkokin duniya.
It will come about that after seventy years, Yahweh will help Tyre, and she will start making money again by doing the work of a prostitute, and she will offer her services to all the kingdoms of the earth.
18 Duk da haka za a keɓe ribarta da kuɗin shigarta wa Ubangiji; ba za a yi ajiyarsu ko a ɓoye su. Ribarta za tă tafi ga waɗanda suke yi wa Ubangiji sujada, don su sami yalwataccen abinci da tufafi masu kyau.
Her profits and earnings will be set apart to Yahweh. They will not be stored up or kept in the treasury, for her profits will be given to those who live in Yahweh's presence and will be used to supply them with abundant food and so they can have the best quality clothing.
