Ishaya 49
1 Ku kasa kunne gare ni, ku tsibirai; ku ji wannan, ku al’ummai masu nesa. Kafin a haife Ni Ubangiji ya kira ni; tun daga haihuwata ya ambaci sunana.
Listen, islands, to me. Listen, you peoples, from afar: the LORD has called me from the womb; from the inside of my mother, he has mentioned my name.
2 Ya yi bakina kamar takobi mai kaifi, cikin inuwar hannunsa ya ɓoye ni; ya sa na zama kamar kibiya mai tsini ya kuma ɓoye ni cikin kwarinsa.
He has made my mouth like a sharp sword. He has hidden me in the shadow of his hand. He has made me a polished shaft. He has kept me close in his quiver.
3 Ya ce mini, “Kai bawana ne, Isra’ila, a cikinka zan bayyana darajata.”
He said to me, “You are my servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified.”
4 Amma na ce, “Na yi aiki a banza; na kashe duk ƙarfina a banza da wofi. Duk da haka abin da yake nawa yana a hannun Ubangiji, ladana kuma tana a wurin Allahna.”
But I said, “I have labored in vain. I have spent my strength in vain for nothing; yet surely the justice due to me is with the LORD, and my reward with my God.”
5 Yanzu fa Ubangiji ya ce ya siffanta ni a cikin mahaifa don in zama bawansa don in dawo da Yaƙub gare shi in kuma tattara Isra’ila gare shi, gama an girmama ni a gaban Ubangiji Allahna kuma ne ƙarfina
Now the LORD, he who formed me from the womb to be his servant, says to bring Jacob again to him, and to gather Israel to him, for I am honorable in the LORD’s eyes, and my God has become my strength.
6 ya ce, “Ɗan ƙaramin abu ne ka zama bawana don ka maido da kabilar Yaƙub ka kuma dawo da waɗannan na Isra’ilawan da na kiyaye. Zan kuma mai da kai haske ga Al’ummai, don ka kawo cetona zuwa iyakokin duniya.”
Indeed, he says, “It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel. I will also give you as a light to the nations, that you may be my salvation to the end of the earth.”
7 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, Mai Fansa da kuma Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila gare shi wanda al’ummai suka rena suka kuma ki, ga bawan masu mulki. “Sarakuna za su gan ka su kuma miƙe tsaye, sarakuna za su gani su kuma rusuna, saboda Ubangiji, wanda yake mai aminci, Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila, wanda ya zaɓe ka.”
The LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, says to him whom man despises, to him whom the nation abhors, to a servant of rulers: “Kings shall see and rise up, princes, and they shall worship, because of the LORD who is faithful, even the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.”
8 Ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “A lokacin tagomashina zan amsa muku, kuma a ranar ceto zan taimake ku; zan kiyaye ku zan kuma sa ku zama alkawari ga mutane, don ku maido da ƙasa ku kuma sāke raba gādon kufai,
The LORD says, “I have answered you in an acceptable time. I have helped you in a day of salvation. I will preserve you and give you for a covenant of the people, to raise up the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritage,
9 don ku ce wa waɗanda suke cikin kurkuku, ‘Ku fito,’ ga waɗanda suke cikin duhu kuma, ‘Ku’yantu!’ “Za su yi kiwo kusa da hanyoyi su kuma sami wurin kiwo a kowane tudu.
saying to those who are bound, ‘Come out!’; to those who are in darkness, ‘Show yourselves!’ “They shall feed along the paths, and their pasture shall be on all treeless heights.
10 Ba za su taɓa jin yunwa ko ƙishi ba, ba kuwa zafin hamada ko rana ta buge su ba. Shi da ya yi musu jinƙai zai jagorance su ya kuma bishe su kusa da maɓulɓulan ruwa.
They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun strike them, for he who has mercy on them will lead them. He will guide them by springs of water.
11 Zan mayar da dukan duwatsu su zama hanyoyi, a kuma gyara manyan hanyoyina.
I will make all my mountains a road, and my highways shall be exalted.
12 Duba, za su zo daga nesa waɗansu daga arewa, waɗansu daga yamma, waɗansu daga yankin Aswan.”
Behold, these shall come from afar, and behold, these from the north and from the west, and these from the land of Sinim.”
13 Ku yi sowa don farin ciki, ya ku sammai; ki yi farin ciki, ya ke duniya; ku ɓarke da waƙa, ya ku duwatsu! Gama Ubangiji ya ta’azantar da mutanensa zai kuma ji tausayin mutanensa da suke shan wahala.
Sing, heavens, and be joyful, earth! Break out into singing, mountains! For the LORD has comforted his people, and will have compassion on his afflicted.
14 Amma Sihiyona ta ce, “Ubangiji ya yashe ni, Ubangiji ya manta da ni.”
But Zion said, “The LORD has forsaken me, and the Lord has forgotten me.”
15 “Yana yiwuwa mahaifiya ta manta da jariri a ƙirjinta ta kuma kāsa nuna tausayi ga yaron da ta haifa? Mai yiwuwa ta manta, amma ba zan taɓa manta da ke ba!
“Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yes, these may forget, yet I will not forget you!
16 Duba, na zāna ki a tafin hannuwana; katangarki kullum suna a gabana.
Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands. Your walls are continually before me.
17 ’Ya’yanki maza su komo da gaggawa, waɗanda suka lalatar da ke kuwa za su bar ki.
Your children hurry. Your destroyers and those who devastated you will leave you.
18 Ki ɗaga idanunki ki duba kewaye; dukan’ya’yanki sun taru suka kuma dawo gare ki. Muddin ina raye,” in ji Ubangiji, “Za ki yafa su duka kamar kayan ado; za ki yi ado da su, kamar amarya.
Lift up your eyes all around, and see: all these gather themselves together, and come to you. As I live,” says the LORD, “you shall surely clothe yourself with them all as with an ornament, and dress yourself with them, like a bride.
19 “Ko da yake an lalatar da ke aka kuma mai da ke kufai ƙasarki kuma ta zama kango, yanzu za ki kāsa sosai saboda yawan mutanenki, kuma waɗanda suka cinye ki za su kasance can da nisa.
“For, as for your waste and your desolate places, and your land that has been destroyed, surely now that land will be too small for the inhabitants, and those who swallowed you up will be far away.
20 ’Ya’yan da aka haifa a lokacin baƙin cikinki za su ce a kunnenki, ‘Wannan wuri ya yi mana kaɗan ƙwarai; ki ƙara mana wurin zama.’
The children of your bereavement will say in your ears, ‘This place is too small for me. Give me a place to live in.’
21 Sa’an nan za ki ce a zuciyarki, ‘Wa ya haifa waɗannan? Na yi baƙin ciki na kuma zama wadda ba ta haihuwa; an yi mini daurin talala aka kuma ƙi ni. Wane ne ya yi renon waɗannan? An bar ni ni kaɗai, amma waɗannan, ina suka fito?’”
Then you will say in your heart, ‘Who has conceived these for me, since I have been bereaved of my children and am alone, an exile, and wandering back and forth? Who has brought these up? Behold, I was left alone. Where were these?’”
22 Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka ya ce, “Duba, zan yi alama wa Al’ummai, zan ɗaga tutana wa mutane; za su kawo’ya’yanki maza a hannuwansu su riƙe’ya’yanki mata a kafaɗunsu.
The Lord GOD says, “Behold, I will lift up my hand to the nations, and lift up my banner to the peoples. They shall bring your sons in their bosom, and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders.
23 Sarakuna za su zama kamar iyayen reno, sarauniyoyinsu kuma za su yi renonku kamar uwaye. Za su rusuna a gabanki da fuskokinsu har ƙasa; za su lashe ƙura a ƙafafunki. Sa’an nan za ki san cewa ni ne Ubangiji; waɗanda suke sa zuciya gare ni ba za su sha kunya ba.”
Kings shall be your foster fathers, and their queens your nursing mothers. They will bow down to you with their faces to the earth, and lick the dust of your feet. Then you will know that I am the LORD; and those who wait for me won’t be disappointed.”
24 Za a iya ƙwace ganima daga jarumawa, ko a kuɓutar da kamammu daga hannun marasa tsoro?
Shall the plunder be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captives be delivered?
25 Amma ga abin da Ubangiji yana cewa, “I, za a ƙwace kamammu daga jarumawa, a kuma karɓe ganima daga hannun marasa tsoro; zan gwabza da waɗanda suke gwabzawa da ke, zan kuwa ceci’ya’yanki.
But the LORD says, “Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the plunder retrieved from the fierce, for I will contend with him who contends with you and I will save your children.
26 Zan sa masu zaluntarki su ci naman jikinsu; za su bugu da jininsu, sai ka ce sun sha ruwan inabi. Sa’an nan dukan mutane za su sani cewa ni, Ubangiji, ni ne Mai Cetonki, Mai Fansarki, Maɗaukakin nan na Yaƙub.”
I will feed those who oppress you with their own flesh; and they will be drunk on their own blood, as with sweet wine. Then all flesh shall know that I, the LORD, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.”
