Ishaya 28
1 Kaito ga wannan rawani, girman kai na mashayan Efraim, ga fure mai yanƙwanewa, darajar kyansa, da aka sa a kan kwari mai ba da amfani, ga birnin nan, wadda take girman kan waɗanda aka ƙasƙantar da ruwan inabinsu!
Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim, and to the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley of them that are smitten down with wine!
2 Duba, Ubangiji yana da wanda yake da iko da kuma ƙarfi. Kamar dutsen ƙanƙara da kuma iska mai ɓarna, kamar kwararowar ruwa da rigyawa mai kirmewa, zai jefa shi har ƙasa da ƙarfi.
Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, as a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction, as a storm of mighty waters overflowing, that casteth down to the earth with violence.
3 Za a tattaka wannan rawani, girman kai na mashayan Efraim da ƙafa.
The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim shall be trodden under foot;
4 Wannan fure mai yanƙwanewa, darajarar kyansa, da aka sa a kan kwari mai ba da amfani, zai zama kamar’ya’yan ɓaure, nunan fari, da zarar wani ya gani ya kuma tsinka, zai haɗiye shi.
And the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be as the first-ripe fig before the summer, which when one looketh upon it, while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up.
5 A wannan rana Ubangiji Maɗaukaki zai zama rawani mai daraja kyakkyawan rawani wa mutanensa da suka ragu.
In that day shall the LORD of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of His people;
6 Zai zama ruhun adalci gare shi wanda yake zaune a kujerar shari’a, wurin samun ƙarfi ga waɗanda suka kori abokan gāban da suka fāɗa musu da yaƙi a ƙofofi.
And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn back the battle at the gate.
7 Da waɗannan kuma masu tangaɗi saboda sun sha ruwan inabi suke jiri don sun sha barasa Firistoci da annabawa suna tangaɗi saboda sun sha barasa sun kuma yi tatur da ruwan inabi; suna jiri saboda sun sha barasa, suna tangaɗi sa’ad da suke ganin wahayi, suna tuntuɓe sa’ad da suke ba da shawara.
But these also reel through wine, and stagger through strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel through strong drink, they are confused because of wine, they stagger because of strong drink; they reel in vision, they totter in judgment.
8 Duk amai ya rufe teburori kuma babu wani wurin da ba a ɓata ba.
For all tables are full of filthy vomit, and no place is clean.
9 “Wane ne yake so ya koyar? Ga wa yake bayyana saƙonsa? Ga yaran da aka yaye, ga waɗanda ba a daɗe da yayewa ba ne?
Whom shall one teach knowledge? And whom shall one make to understand the message? Them that are weaned from the milk, them that are drawn from the breasts?
10 Gama haka yake. Yi ka kuma yi, yi ka kuma yi, mulki a kan mulki, mulki a kan mulki; nan kaɗan, can kaɗan.”
For it is precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little.
11 To da kyau, da leɓunan baƙi da ku harsunan da ba sani ba Allah zai yi magana da wannan mutane,
For with stammering lips and with a strange tongue shall it be spoken to this people;
12 waɗanda zai ce, “Wannan shi ne wurin hutu, bari waɗanda suka gaji su huta”; da kuma, “Wannan shi ne wurin wartsakewa” amma sun ƙi su saurara.
To whom it was said: 'This is the rest, give ye rest to the weary; and this is the refreshing'; yet they would not hear.
13 Saboda haka fa, maganar Ubangiji gare su za tă zama, Yi ka kuma yi, yi ka kuma yi, mulki akan mulki, mulki a kan mulki; nan kaɗan, can kaɗan, domin su tafi su kuma fāɗi da baya, su ji rauni a kuma kama su da tarko, a kai su zaman bauta.
And so the word of the LORD is unto them precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
14 Saboda haka ku saurari maganar Ubangiji, ku masu ba’a ku da kuke mulkin wannan mutane a Urushalima.
Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scoffers, the ballad-mongers of this people which is in Jerusalem:
15 Kuna fariya cewa, “Mun yi alkawari da mutuwa, mun kuma yi yarjejjeniya da kabari. Sa’ad da zafi ya ratsa, ba zai taɓa mu ba, gama mun mai da ƙarya mafakarmu ruɗu kuma wurin ɓuyanmu.” (Sheol h7585)
Because ye have said: 'We have made a covenant with death, and with the nether-world are we at agreement; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us; for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood have we hid ourselves'; (Sheol h7585)
16 Saboda haka ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka ya ce, “Duba, na kafa dutse a Sihiyona, dutsen da aka gwada, dutsen kusurwa mai daraja don tabbataccen tushe; wanda ya dogara gare shi ba zai taɓa shan kunya ba.
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a costly corner-stone of sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Zan mai da gaskiya igiyar gwaji adalci kuma ɗan katakon gwajin ginin; ƙanƙara za tă share mafakarku, ƙarya, da ruwa kuma za su mamaye maɓuyanku.
And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place.
18 Za a soke alkawarinku da mutuwa; yarjejjeniyarku da kabari ba zai zaunu ba. Sa’ad da zafi mai ɓarna ya ratsa, zai hallaka ku. (Sheol h7585)
And your covenant with death shall be disannulled and your agreement with the nether-world shall not stand; when the scouring scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it, (Sheol h7585)
19 A duk sa’ad da ya zo; ko da safiya, ko dare ko kuma da rana, zai yi ta ratsawa yana kwasanku.” Za ku zama kamar mutumin da ya zama abin karin magana,
As often as it passeth through, it shall take you; for morning by morning shall it pass through, by day and by night; and it shall be sheer terror to understand the message.
20 wanda ya yi ƙoƙari yă kwanta a gajeren gado, yă kuma rufa da ɗan siririn bargo.
For the bed is too short for a man to stretch himself; and the covering too narrow when he gathereth himself up.
21 Ubangiji zai tashi kamar yadda ya yi a Dutsen Feratsim, zai tā da kansa kamar a Kwarin Gibeyon don yă aikata aikinsa, aikinsa da ba a saba gani ba, yă kuma yi aikinsa, baƙon aikinsa.
For the LORD will rise up as in mount Perazim, He will be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon; that He may do His work, strange is His work, and bring to pass His act, strange is His act.
22 Yanzu ku daina ba’arku, in ba haka ba sarƙoƙinku za su ƙara nauyi; Ubangiji, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, ya faɗa mini game da hallakar da aka ƙaddara a kan dukan ƙasar.
Now therefore be ye not scoffers, lest your bands be made strong; for an extermination wholly determined have I heard from the Lord, the GOD of hosts, upon the whole land.
23 Ku saurara ku kuma ji muryata; ku kasa kunne ku kuma ji abin da na faɗa.
Give ye ear, and hear my voice; attend, and hear my speech.
24 Sa’ad da manomi ya yi noma don shuki, yakan ci gaba da noma ne? Yakan ci gaba da sara yana yin kunyoyi a ƙasa ne?
Is the plowman never done with plowing to sow, with the opening and harrowing of his ground?
25 Sa’ad da ya shirya wuri da kyau, ba yakan shuka kanumfari ya kuma yayyafa ɗaɗɗoya ba? Ba yakan shuka alkama a kunyoyinsa sha’ir a kunyoyinsa, tamba kuma a filinsa ba?
When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the black cummin, and scatter the cummin, and put in the wheat in rows and the barley in the appointed place and the spelt in the border thereof?
26 Allahnsa ya umarce shi ya kuma koya masa hanyar da take daidai.
For He doth instruct him aright; his God doth teach him.
27 Ba a bugan kanumfari da ƙaton sanda ko a yi ta jujjuye ƙafar keke a kan ɗaɗɗoya; akan buga kanumfari da siririn sanda ɗaɗɗoya kuma da tsumagiya.
For the black cummin is not threshed with a threshing-sledge, neither is a cart-wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the black cummin is beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.
28 Dole a niƙa hatsi don a yi burodi; saboda haka mutum ba zai yi ta bugun alkama, har yă ɓata tsabar ba. Ya san yadda zai sussuke alkamarsa, ba tare da ya ɓata tsabarta ba.
Is bread corn crushed? Nay, he will not ever be threshing it; and though the roller of his wagon and its sharp edges move noisily, he doth not crush it.
29 Dukan wannan hikimar takan zo daga Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ne, shi da yake mashawarci mai banmamaki, mafifici kuma cikin hikima.
This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts: Wonderful is His counsel, and great His wisdom.
