Ishaya 44
1 “Amma yanzu ka saurara, ya Yaƙub, bawana, Isra’ila, wanda zaɓa.
And now hear, O Jacob, my servant, and Israel whom I have chosen.
2 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, shi wanda ya yi ka, wanda ya siffanta ka a cikin mahaifa, wanda kuma zai taimake ka. Kada ka ji tsoro, ya Yaƙub, bawana, Yeshurun, wanda na zaɓa.
Thus saith the Lord that made and formed thee, thy helper from the womb: Fear not, O my servant Jacob, and thou most righteous whom I have chosen.
3 Gama zan zuba ruwa a ƙeƙasasshiyar ƙasa, rafuffuka kuma a busasshiyar ƙasa; zan ba da Ruhuna ga’ya’yanka, albarkata kuma ga zuriyarka.
For I will pour out waters upon the thirsty ground, and streams upon the dry land: I will pour out my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thy stock.
4 Za su tsiro kamar ciyawa a wuriyar ruwa, kamar kurmi kusa da rafuffuka masu gudu.
And they shall spring up among the herbs, as willows beside the running waters.
5 Wani zai ce, ‘Ni na Ubangiji ne’; wani kuma zai kira kansa da sunan Yaƙub; har yanzu wani zai rubuta a hannunsa, ‘Na Ubangiji,’ ya kuma ɗauki sunan Isra’ila.
One shall say: I am the Lord’s, and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob, and another shall subscribe with his hand, To the Lord, and surname himself by the name of Israel.
6 “Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, Sarki da kuma Mai Fansar Isra’ila, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki. Ni ne farko ni ne kuma ƙarshe; in ban da ni babu wani Allah.
Thus saith the Lord the king of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts: I am the brat, and I am the last, and besides me there is no God.
7 Wane ne kuwa kama da ni? Ya faɗa a ji. Bari yă yi shela ya kuma nuna shi a gabana mene ne ya faru tun da na kafa mutanena na dā, mene ne kuma bai riga ya faru ba, I, bari yă faɗa abin da zai zo.
Who is like to me? let him call and declare: and let him set before me the order, since I appointed the ancient people: and the things to come, and that shall be hereafter, let them shew unto them.
8 Kada ku firgita kada kuma ku ji tsoro. Ban furta wannan na kuma yi faɗar haka tuntuni ba? Ku ne shaiduna. Akwai wani Allah in ban da ni? A’a, babu wani Dutse; ban san da wani ba.”
Fear ye not, neither be ye troubled, from that time I have made thee to hear, and have declared: you are my witnesses. Is there a God besides me, a maker, whom I have not known?
9 Duk masu yin gumaka ba kome ba ne, da kuma abubuwan da suke ɗauka da daraja banza ne. Waɗanda za su yi magana a madadinsu makafi ne; jahilai ne, marasa kunya.
The makers of idols are all of them nothing, and their best beloved things shall not profit them. They are their witnesses, that they do not see, nor understand, that they may be ashamed.
10 Waɗanda suke siffanta allah su kuma yi zubin gunki, waɗanda ba za su yi musu ribar kome ba?
Who hath formed a god, and made a graven thing that is profitable for nothing?
11 Shi da irinsa za su sha kunya; masu sassaƙa ba kome ba mutane ne kurum. Bari su tattaru su ɗauki matsayinsu; za su firgita su kuma sha mummunan kunya.
Behold, all the partakers thereof shall be confounded: for the makers are men: they shall all assemble together, they shall stand and fear, and shall be confounded together.
12 Maƙeri yakan ɗauki kayan aiki ya yi aiki da shi a cikin garwashi; ya ƙera gunki da guduma, ya gyara shi da hannuwansa masu ƙarfi. Yakan ji yunwa ya kuma rasa ƙarfi; yakan sha ruwa ya kuma ji gajiya.
The smith hath wrought with his file, with coals, and with hammers he hath formed it, and hath wrought with the strength of his arm: he shall hunger and faint, he shall drink no water, and shall be weary.
13 Kafinta yakan gwada katako yă kuma zāna siffar da alli; yă goge shi da kayan aiki yă kuma zāna shi da alƙalami. Yă siffanta shi a kamannin mutum, mutum cikin dukan darajarsa, don yă ajiye shi a cikin masujada.
The carpenter hath stretched out his rule, he hath formed it with a plane: he hath made it with corners, and hath fashioned it round with the compass: and he hath made the image of a man as it were a beautiful man dwelling in a house.
14 Yakan ka da itacen saifires, ko kuwa ya ɗauki saifires ko oak. Yă bar shi yă yi girma a cikin itatuwan kurmi, ko yă shuka itacen fir, ruwan sama kuma yă sa yă yi girma.
He hath cut down cedars, taken the holm, and the oak that stood among the trees of the forest: he hath planted the pine tree, which the rain hath nourished.
15 Abin hura wutar mutum ne; yakan ɗebi waɗansu yă hura wuta don yă ji ɗumi, ya hura wuta yă gasa burodi. Amma yakan ƙera zinariya yă kuma yi masa sujada; yakan yi gunki sa’an nan yă rusuna masa.
And it hath served men for fuel: he took thereof, and warmed himself: and he kindled it, and baked bread: but of the rest he made a god, and adored it: he made a graven thing, and bowed down before it.
16 Rabin katakon yakan ƙone a wuta; a kansa yakan dafa abincinsa, yă gasa namansa yă kuma ci sai ya ƙoshi. Yakan ji ɗumi yă kuma ce, “Aha! Na ji ɗumi; na gan wutar.”
Part of it he burnt with fire, and with part of it he dressed his meat: he boiled pottage, and was filled, and was warmed, and said: Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire.
17 Da sauran itacen yakan yi allah, gunkinsa; yă rusuna masa yă kuma yi sujada. Yakan yi masa addu’a yă ce, “Ka cece ni; kai ne allahna.”
But the residue thereof he made a god, and a graven thing for himself: he boweth down before it, and adoreth it, and prayeth unto it, saying: Deliver me, for thou art my God.
18 Ba su san kome ba, ba su fahimci kome ba; an rufe idanunsu don kada su gani, tunaninsu kuma a rufe don kada su fahimta.
They have not known, nor understood: for their eyes are covered that they may not see, and that they may not understand with their heart.
19 Ba wanda yakan dakata ya yi tunani, ba wanda yake da sani ko fahimi ya ce, “Da rabinsa na yi amfani da shi don hura wuta; na ma gasa burodi a kan garwashinsa, na gasa nama na kuma ci. Ya kamata in yi abin ƙyama daga abin da ya rage? Ya kamata in rusuna wa guntun katako?”
They do not consider in their mind, nor know, nor have the thought to say: I have burnt part of it in the fire, and I have baked bread upon the coals thereof: I have broiled flesh and have eaten, and of the residue thereof shall I make an idol? shall I fall down before the stock of a tree?
20 Yana cin toka, zuciyar da ta ruɗe tana ɓad da shi; ba zai iya cece kansa ba, ko ya ce, “Wannan abin da yake hannun dama na ba ƙarya ba ne?”
Part thereof is ashes: his foolish heart adoreth it, and he will not save his soul, nor say: Perhaps there is a lie in my right hand.
21 “Tuna da waɗannan abubuwa, ya Yaƙub, gama kai bawana ne, ya Isra’ila. Na yi ka, kai bawana ne; Ya Isra’ila, ba zan manta da kai ba.
Remember these things, O Jacob, and Israel, for thou art my servant. I have formed thee, thou art my servant, O Israel, forget me not.
22 Na shafe laifofinka kamar girgije, zunubanka kamar hazon safe. Ka komo wurina, gama na kuɓutar da kai.”
I have blotted out thy iniquities as a cloud, and thy sins as a mist: return to me, for I have redeemed thee.
23 Ku rera don farin ciki, ya sammai, gama Ubangiji ya aikata wannan; ku yi sowa, ya duniya a ƙarƙashi. Ku ɓarke da waƙoƙi, ku duwatsu, ku jeji da dukan itatuwanku, gama Ubangiji ya kuɓutar da Yaƙub, ya nuna ɗaukakarsa a cikin Isra’ila.
Give praise, O ye heavens, for the Lord hath shewn mercy: shout with joy, ye ends of the earth: ye mountains, resound with praise, thou, O forest, and every tree therein: for the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and Israel shall be glorified.
24 “Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, Mai Fansarka, wanda ya yi ka a cikin mahaifa. “Ni ne Ubangiji, wanda ya yi dukan abubuwa, wanda ya shimfiɗa sammai ya kuma kafa harsashen duniya da kansa,
Thus saith the Lord thy redeemer, and thy maker, from the womb: I am the Lord, that make all things, that alone stretch out the heavens, that establish the earth, and there is none with me.
25 wanda ya sassāke alamun annabawan ƙarya ya masu duba suka zama wawaye, wanda ya tumɓuke koyon masu hikima ya mai da shi banza,
That make void the tokens of diviners, and make the soothsayers mad. That turn the wise backward, and that, make their knowledge foolish.
26 wanda ya tabbatar da maganganun bayinsa ya kuma cika annabce-annabcen’yan aikansa, “wanda ya ce game da Urushalima, ‘Za a zauna a cikinta,’ game da garuruwan Yahuda, ‘Za a gina su,’
That raise up the word of my servant and perform the counsel of my messengers, who say to Jerusalem: Thou shalt be inhabited: and to the cities of Juda: You shall be built, and I will raise up the wastes thereof.
27 wanda ya ce wa zurfin ruwaye, ‘Ku bushe, zan kuma busar da rafuffukanku,’
Who say to the deep: Be thou desolate, and I will dry up thy rivers.
28 wanda ya yi zancen Sairus ya ce, ‘Shi ne makiyayina zan kuma cika dukan abin da na gan dama; zai yi zancen Urushalima cewa, “Bari a sāke gina ta,” game da haikali kuma cewa, “Bari a kafa harsashinsa.”’
Who say to Cyrus: Thou art my shepherd, and thou shalt perform all my pleasure. Who say to Jerusalem: Thou shalt be built: and to the temple: Thy foundations shall be laid.
