Ishaya 43
1 To, fa, ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, shi da ya halicce ka, ya Yaƙub, shi da ya siffanta ka, ya Isra’ila, “Kada ka ji tsoro, gama na fanshe ka; na kira ka da suna; kai nawa ne.
And now, thus said Jehovah, Thy Creator, O Jacob, and thy Fashioner, O Israel, Be not afraid, for I have redeemed thee, I have called on thy name — thou [art] Mine.
2 Sa’ad da kuka bi ta ruwaye, zan kasance tare da ku; sa’ad da kuka bi ta koguna, ba za su kwashe ku ba. Sa’ad da kuke tafiyata cikin wuta, ba za tă ƙone ku ba; harsunan wutar ba za su ƙone ku ba.
When thou passest into waters, I [am] with thee, And into floods, they do not overflow thee, When thou goest into fire, thou art not burnt, And a flame doth not burn against thee.
3 Gama ni ne Ubangiji, Allahnku, Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila, Mai Cetonku; na bayar da Masar don fansa, Kush da Seba a maimakonku.
For I — Jehovah thy God, The Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour, I have appointed Egypt thine atonement, Cush and Seba in thy stead.
4 Da yake ku masu daraja da kuma girma ne a idona, saboda kuma ina ƙaunarku, zan ba da mutane a maimakonku, al’umma kuma domin ranku.
Since thou wast precious in Mine eyes, Thou wast honoured, and I have loved thee, And I appoint men in thy stead, And peoples instead of thy life.
5 Kada ku ji tsoro, gama ina tare da ku; zan kawo yaranku daga gabas in kuma tattara ku daga yamma.
Be not afraid, for I [am] with thee, From the east I bring in thy seed, And from the west I gather thee.
6 Zan ce wa arewa, ‘Ku miƙa su!’ Ga kudu kuma, ‘Kada ku riƙe su.’ Kawo’ya’yana maza daga nesa’ya’yana mata kuma daga iyakar duniya,
I am saying to the north, 'Give up,' And to the south, 'Restrain not.' Bring in My sons from afar, And My daughters from the end of the earth.
7 kowa da ake kira da sunana, wanda aka halitta saboda ɗaukakata, wanda na siffanta na kuma yi.”
Every one who is called by My name, Even for My honour I have created him, I have formed him, yea, I have made him.
8 Jagoranci waɗanda suke da idanu amma suke makafi, waɗanda suke da kunnuwa amma suke kurame.
He brought out a blind people who have eyes, And deaf ones who have ears.
9 Dukan al’ummai su taru mutane kuma su tattaru. Wane ne a cikinsu ya yi faɗar wannan ya kuma yi mana shelar abubuwan da suka riga suka faru? Bari su kawo shaidunsu don su tabbatar cewa sun yi daidai, don waɗansu su ji su kuma ce, “Gaskiya ne.”
All the nations have been gathered together, And the peoples are assembled, Who among them declareth this, And former things causeth us to hear? They give their witnesses, And they are declared righteous, And they hear and say, 'Truth.'
10 “Ku ne shaiduna,” in ji Ubangiji, “bawana kuma wanda na zaɓa, saboda ka sani ka kuma gaskata ni ka kuma fahimci cewa ni ne shi. Kafin ni babu allahn da aka siffanta, ba kuwa za a yi wani a bayana ba.
Ye [are] My witnesses, an affirmation of Jehovah, And My servant whom I have chosen, So that ye know and give credence to Me, And understand that I [am] He, Before Me there was no God formed, And after Me there is none.
11 Ni kaɗai, ni ne Ubangiji, kuma in ban da ni babu wani mai ceto.
I — I [am] Jehovah, And besides Me there is no saviour.
12 Na bayyana na ceci na kuma furta, Ni ne, ba wani baƙon allah a cikinku. Ku ne shaiduna,” in ji Ubangiji, “cewa ni ne Allah.
I — I declared, and saved, and proclaimed, And there is no stranger with you, And ye [are] My witnesses, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I [am] God.
13 I, kuma tun fil azal ni ne shi. Babu wani da zai amshi daga hannuna. Sa’ad da na aikata, wa zai iya sauyawa?”
Even from the day I [am] He, And there is no deliverer from My hand, I work, and who doth turn it back?
14 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, Mai Fansarku, Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila, “Saboda ku zan aika Babilon in kawo dukan Babiloniyawa kamar masu gudun hijira, a cikin jiragen ruwa waɗanda suke taƙama da su.
Thus said Jehovah, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: 'For your sake I have sent to Babylon, And caused bars to descend — all of them, And the Chaldeans, whose song [is] in the ships.
15 Ni ne Ubangiji, Mai Tsarkin nan, Mahaliccin Isra’ila, Sarkinku.”
I [am] Jehovah, your Holy One, Creator of Israel, your King.'
16 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, shi da ya yi hanya ta cikin teku, hanya ta cikin manyan ruwaye,
Thus said Jehovah, Who is giving in the sea a way, And in the strong waters a path.
17 wanda ya ja kekunan yaƙi da dawakai, mayaƙa da kuma ƙarin mayaƙa tare ya kwantar da su a can, ba kuwa za su ƙara tashi ba, ya kashe hayaƙi daga lagwani,
Who is bringing forth chariot and horse, A force, even a strong one: 'Together they lie down — they rise not, They have been extinguished, As flax they have been quenched.'
18 “Ku manta da abubuwan da suka riga suka faru; kada ku yi tunanin abin da ya riga ya wuce.
Remember not former things, And ancient things consider not.
19 Duba, ina yi abu sabo! Yanzu yana faruwa; ba ku gan shi ba? Ina yin hanya a cikin hamada rafuffuka kuma a cikin ƙeƙasasshiyar ƙasa.
Lo, I am doing a new thing, now it springeth up, Do ye not know it? Yea, I put in a wilderness a way, In a desolate place — floods.
20 Namun jeji suna girmama ni, diloli da mujiyoyi ma haka, domin na tanada musu ruwa a hamada da rafuffuka a ƙeƙasasshiyar ƙasa, don a ba da abin sha ga mutanena, zaɓaɓɓuna,
Honour me doth the beast of the field, Dragons and daughters of an ostrich, For I have given in a wilderness waters, Floods in a desolate place, To give drink to My people — My chosen.
21 mutanen da na yi saboda kaina don su furta yabona.
This people I have formed for Myself, My praise they recount.
22 “Duk da haka ba ku kira bisa sunana ba, ya Yaƙub, ba ku gajiyar da kanku saboda ni ba, ya Isra’ila.
And Me thou hast not called, O Jacob, For thou hast been wearied of me, O Israel,
23 Ba ku kawo mini tumaki don hadaya ta ƙonewa ba, balle ku girmama ni da hadayunku. Ban nawaita muku da hadaya ta gari ba balle in gajiyar da ku da bukatar turare.
Thou hast not brought in to Me, The lamb of thy burnt-offerings, And [with] thy sacrifices thou hast not honoured Me, I have not caused thee to serve with a present, Nor wearied thee with frankincense.
24 Ba ku saya wani turaren kalamus domina ba ko ku gamshe ni da kitsen hadayunku. Amma kun nawaita ni da zunubanku kuka kuma gajiyar da ni da laifofinku.
Thou hast not bought for Me with money sweet cane, And [with] the fat of thy sacrifices hast not filled Me, Only — thou hast caused Me to serve with thy sins, Thou hast wearied Me with thine iniquities.
25 “Ni kaɗai ne na shafe laifofinku, saboda sunana, ban kuma ƙara tunawa da zunubanku ba.
I — I [am] He who is blotting out Thy transgressions for Mine own sake, And thy sins I do not remember.
26 Ku tunashe ni abin da ya riga ya wuce, bari mu yi muhawwara wannan batu tare; ku kawo hujjarku na nuna rashin laifinku.
Cause me to remember — we are judged together, Declare thou that thou mayest be justified.
27 Mahaifinku na farko ya yi zunubi; masu magana a madadinku suka yi mini tayarwa.
Thy first father sinned, And thine interpreters transgressed against me,
28 Saboda haka zan kunyata manyan baƙi na haikalinku, zan tura Yaƙub ga hallaka Isra’ila kuwa yă zama abin dariya.
And I pollute princes of the sanctuary, And I give Jacob to destruction, and Israel to revilings!
