Ishaya 48
1 “Ku kasa kunne ga wannan, ya gidan Yaƙub, waɗanda ake kira da sunan Isra’ila suka kuma fito daga zuriyar Yahuda, ku da kuke yin rantsuwa da sunan Ubangiji kuna kuma kira sunan Allah na Isra’ila, amma ba da gaskiya ko adalci ba,
“Listen to this, O house of Jacob, you who are called by the name of Israel, who have descended from the line of Judah, who swear by the name of the LORD, who invoke the God of Israel— but not in truth or righteousness—
2 ku da kuke kiran kanku’yan ƙasar birni mai tsarki kuna kuma dogara ga Allah na Isra’ila, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ne sunansa,
who indeed call yourselves after the holy city and lean on the God of Israel; the LORD of Hosts is His name.
3 na nanata abubuwan da suka riga suka faru tuntuni, bakina ya yi shelar su na kuma sanar da su; sai nan da nan na aikata, suka kuma faru.
I foretold the former things long ago; they came out of My mouth and I proclaimed them. Suddenly I acted, and they came to pass.
4 Gama na san yadda kuke da taurinkai; jijiyoyin wuyanku ƙarafa ne, goshinku tagulla ne.
For I knew that you are stubborn; your neck is iron and your forehead is bronze.
5 Saboda haka na faɗa waɗannan abubuwa tuntuni; kafin su faru na yi shelarsu gare ku saboda kada ku ce, ‘Gumakana ne suka yi su; siffar itacena da allahn zinariyana ne ya ƙaddara su.’
Therefore I declared it to you long ago; I announced it before it came to pass, so that you could not claim, ‘My idol has done this; my carved image and molten god has ordained it.’
6 Kun riga kun ji waɗannan abubuwa; kuka gan su duka. Ba za ku yarda da su ba? “Daga yanzu zuwa gaba zan faɗa muku sababbin abubuwa, na ɓoyayyun abubuwan da ba ku sani ba.
You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not acknowledge them? From now on I will tell you of new things, hidden things unknown to you.
7 Yanzu an halicce su, ba da daɗewa ba; ba ku riga kun ji game da su kafin yau ba. Saboda haka ba za ku ce, ‘I, na san da su ba.’
They are created now, and not long ago; you have not heard of them before today. So you cannot claim, ‘I already knew them!’
8 Ba ku ji ko balle ku gane ba; tun da kunnenku bai buɗu ba. Tabbatacce na san yadda kun zama masu tayarwa; an kira ku’yan tawaye daga haihuwa.
You have never heard; you have never understood; for a long time your ears have not been open. For I knew how deceitful you are; you have been called a rebel from birth.
9 Saboda girman sunana na jinkirta fushina; saboda girman yabona na janye shi daga gare ku, don dai kada a yanke ku.
For the sake of My name I will delay My wrath; for the sake of My praise I will restrain it, so that you will not be cut off.
10 Duba, na tace ku, ko da yake ba kamar azurfa ba; na gwada ku cikin wutar wahala.
See, I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.
11 Saboda girmana, saboda girmana, na yi haka. Yaya zan ƙyale a ƙazantar da kaina? Ba zan raba ɗaukakata da wani ba.
For My own sake, My very own sake, I will act; for how can I let Myself be defamed? I will not yield My glory to another.
12 “Ka kasa kunne gare ni, ya Yaƙub, Isra’ila, wanda na kira cewa, Ni ne shi; ni ne na farko ni ne kuma na ƙarshe.
Listen to Me, O Jacob, and Israel, whom I have called: I am He; I am the first, and I am the last.
13 Hannuna ne ya kafa harsashen duniya, hannuna na dama kuma ya shimfiɗa sammai; sa’ad da na kira su, duka suka miƙe tsaye gaba ɗaya.
Surely My own hand founded the earth, and My right hand spread out the heavens; when I summon them, they stand up together.
14 “Ku tattaru, dukanku ku kuma saurara, Wanne a cikin gumakan ya iya faɗa waɗannan abubuwa? Zaɓaɓɓen da Ubangiji yake ƙauna zai aikata nufinsa a kan Babilon; hannunsa zai yi gāba da Babiloniyawa.
Come together, all of you, and listen: Which of the idols has foretold these things? The LORD’s chosen ally will carry out His desire against Babylon, and His arm will be against the Chaldeans.
15 Ni kaina, na faɗa; I, na kira shi. Zan kawo shi, zai kuma yi nasara a cikin aikinsa.
I, even I, have spoken; yes, I have called him. I have brought him, and he will succeed in his mission.
16 “Ku zo kusa da ni ku kuma saurari wannan. “Daga farkon shela ban yi magana a ɓoye ba; a lokacin da ya faru, ina nan a wurin.” Yanzu kuwa Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka ya aiko ni, da Ruhunsa.
Come near to Me and listen to this: From the beginning I have not spoken in secret; from the time it happened, I was there.” And now the Lord GOD has sent me, accompanied by His Spirit.
17 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, Mai Fansarku, Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila ya ce, “Ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku, wanda ya koya muku abin da ya fi muku kyau, wanda ya muku hanyar da za ku bi.
Thus says the LORD your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the LORD your God, who teaches you for your benefit, who directs you in the way you should go.
18 Da a ce kawai za ku mai da hankali ga umarnaina, da salamarku ta zama kamar kogi, adalcinku kamar raƙuman teku.
If only you had paid attention to My commandments, your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like waves of the sea.
19 Da zuriyarku ta zama kamar yashi,’ya’yanku kamar tsabar hatsin da ba a iya ƙidayawa; da ba za a taɓa yanke sunansu balle a hallaka su daga gabana ba.”
Your descendants would have been as countless as the sand, and your offspring as numerous as its grains; their name would never be cut off or eliminated from My presence.”
20 Ku bar Babilon, ku gudu daga Babiloniyawa! Ku yi shelar wannan da sowa ta farin ciki ku kuma furta shi. Ku aika shi zuwa iyakokin duniya; ku ce, “Ubangiji ya fanshi bawansa Yaƙub.”
Leave Babylon! Flee from the Chaldeans! Declare it with a shout of joy, proclaim it, let it go out to the ends of the earth, saying, “The LORD has redeemed His servant Jacob!”
21 Ba su ji ƙishi ba sa’ad da ya bishe su a cikin hamada; ya sa ruwa ya malalo dominsu daga dutse; ya tsage dutse ruwa kuwa ya kwararo.
They did not thirst when He led them through the deserts; He made water flow for them from the rock; He split the rock, and water gushed out.
22 “Babu salama ga mugaye” in ji Ubangiji.
“There is no peace,” says the LORD, “for the wicked.”
