Ishaya 5
1 Zan rera waƙa wa ƙaunataccena waƙa game da gonar inabinsa. Ƙaunataccena yana da gonar inabi a gefen tudu mai dausayi.
[Now] I will sing a song about my dear friend, and about his vineyard. The vineyard was on a very fertile hillside.
2 Ya haƙa ƙasa ya kuma tsintsince duwatsun ya shuka mata inabi mafi kyau. Ya gina hasumiyar tsaro a cikinta ya kuma shirya wurin matsin ruwan inabi. Sa’an nan ya sa rai ga samun girbi mai kyau na inabin, amma sai ga shi inabin ya ba da munanan’ya’ya.
My friend plowed the ground and cleared away the stones. Then he planted very good grapevines on that ground. In the middle of the vineyard, he built a watchtower, and he dug a (winepress/pit for squeezing the grapes). Then he waited [each year] to harvest some good grapes, but the vines produced [only] sour grapes.
3 “Yanzu fa ku mazauna cikin Urushalima da mutanen Yahuda, ku shari’anta tsakanina da gonar inabina.
Now [this is what Yahweh says]: “You people of Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah, I [am like the friend, and you are like] my vineyard; [so] you judge which of us [has done what is right].
4 Me kuma ya rage da za a yi wa gonar inabina fiye da abin da na yi mata? Da na nemi inabi masu kyau, me ya sa ta ba da munana’ya’ya?
What more could I have done for you than what I have already done? I expected you to be doing good deeds [MET], so it is disgusting that [RHQ] you were [doing only evil things] like the vineyard that produced only sour grapes!
5 Yanzu zan faɗa muku abin da zan yi da gonar inabina. Zan cire katangar da ta kewaye ta, za tă kuwa lalace; zan rushe bangonta, za a kuwa tattake ta.
[So], I will now tell you what I will do to [Judah, the place that is like] my vineyard. I will cut down the hedges, and they will be destroyed. I will tear down the walls [of the cities] and allow [wild animals] to trample the land.
6 Zan mai da ita kango, ba zan aske ta ba, ba kuwa zan nome ta ba, sarƙaƙƙiya da ƙayayyuwa kuwa za su yi girma a can Zan umarci gizagizai kada su yi ruwan sama a kanta.”
I will cause it to become a wasteland where the vines are not pruned and the ground is not hoed. It will be a place where briers and thorns [DOU] grow. And I will command that no rain will fall on it.”
7 Gonar inabin Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ita ce gidan Isra’ila, mutanen Yahuda kuma su ne lambun farin cikinsa. Yana kuma nema ganin gaskiya, amma sai ga zub da jini; yana neman adalci, amma sai ga shi kukan azaba yake ji.
The nation of Israel is [like] [MET] the vineyard of the Commander of the armies of angels. The people of Judah are [like] the garden that was pleasing to him. He expected you to be doing what is just/fair, but instead, [what he saw was people] murdering [MTY] others. [He expected that you would be doing] righteous deeds, but instead, he heard cries from people who were being [attacked] violently.
8 Kaitonku ku waɗanda kuke ƙara wa kanku gidaje kuke kuma haɗa gonaki da gonaki har babu sauran filin da ya rage ku kuma zauna ku kaɗai a ƙasar.
Terrible things will happen to you who continually [illegally] acquire houses and fields. You force one family after another to leave their homes until you are the only ones [HYP] [still] living in the land.
9 Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya furta a kunnuwana, “Tabbatacce manyan gidajen za su zama kango, za a bar kyawawan gidajen nan ba kowa.
[But] I heard the Commander of the armies of angels solemnly declare this: “[Some day], many of those huge houses will be empty/deserted; no one will be living in those beautiful mansions.
10 Kadada goma na gonar inabi zai ba da garwan ruwan inabi ɗaya kaɗai, mudu guda na iri kuma zai ba da efa na hatsi guda kurum.”
The vines on ten acres of land will not produce enough grapes to make (six gallons/22 liters) [of juice/wine], and ten baskets of seed will produce only one basket [of grain].”
11 Kaiton waɗanda suke tashi da sassafe don su nufi wurin shaye-shaye, waɗanda suke raba dare har sai sun bugu da ruwan inabi.
Terrible things will happen to those who get up early [each] morning to begin drinking alcoholic drinks, and who stay awake until late at night [drinking a lot of wine] until they are completely drunk.
12 Suna kaɗa garaya, da molaye a bukukkuwansu, ganguna da busa da ruwan inabi, amma ba su kula da ayyukan Ubangiji ba, ba sa biyayya ga aikin hannuwansa.
They have [big parties and provide lots of] wine. At their parties, there are [people playing] harps and lyres and tambourines and flutes, but they never think about what Yahweh does or appreciate what he has created.
13 Saboda haka mutanena za su yi zaman bauta domin rashin fahimi; manyan mutanensu za su mutu da yunwa talakawansu kuma su mutu da ƙishirwa.
So, my people will be (exiled/taken to other countries) [far away] because they do not know [about me]. Those who are [now very important and] honored will starve, and the other people will die from thirst.
14 Saboda haka kabari ya fadada marmarinsa ya kuma buɗe bakinsa babu iyaka; cikinsa manyan mutanensu da talakawansu za su gangara tare da dukan masu hayaniyarsu da masu murnansu. (Sheol h7585)
[It is as though] [PRS] the place where the dead people are is eagerly looking for more Israeli people, opening its mouth to swallow them, and a huge number of people will be thrown into that place, including their leaders as well as a noisy crowd of people who enjoy living in Jerusalem. (Sheol h7585)
15 Ta haka za a ƙasƙantar da mutum kuma za a ƙasƙantar da’yan adam, za a ƙasƙanta da masu girman kai.
[Yahweh] will get rid of a huge number of people; and he will humble [many more] people who [now] are proud/arrogant.
16 Amma Ubangiji Maɗaukaki zai sami ɗaukaka ta wurin aikata gaskiya, kuma Allah mai tsarki zai nuna kansa ta wurin adalcinsa.
But the Commander of the armies of angels will be exalted/praised because of his acting justly. God will show that he is holy by doing righteous/just deeds.
17 Sa’an nan tumaki za su yi kiwo kamar yadda suke yi a wurin kiwonsu; raguna za su yi kiwo cikin abubuwa masu kyau da suka lalace.
Then lambs and fat sheep will [be able to] find good grass to eat, [even] among the ruins [of the houses of rich people].
18 Kaiton waɗanda suke jan zunubi da igiyar ruɗu, da kuma mugunta da igiyoyin keken yaƙin,
Some people constantly tell lies, and [it is as though] they are dragging behind them the wrong things that they have done. Terrible things will happen to them!
19 waɗanda suke cewa, “Bari Allah yă gaggauta, bari yă hanzarta aikinsa don mu gani. Bari yă iso, bari shirin Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila yă zo, don mu sani.”
They [make fun of God and] say [to him, ] “Go ahead, do something [to punish us]! We want to see what you will do. You, the Holy One of Israel, should do what you are planning to do, because we want to know what it is.”
20 Kaiton waɗanda suke ce da mugunta nagarta nagarta kuma mugunta, waɗanda suke mai da duhu haske haske kuma duhu, waɗanda suke mai da ɗaci zaƙi zaƙi kuma ɗaci.
Terrible things will happen to those who say that evil is good, and that good is evil, that darkness is light and that light is darkness, that what is bitter is sweet and what is sweet is bitter.
21 Kaiton waɗanda suke tsammani suna da hikima da kuma wayo a idonsu.
Terrible things will happen to those who think that they are wise and that they (are very clever/know everything).
22 Kaiton waɗanda suke jarumawa a shan ruwan inabi da gwanaye a haɗin abubuwan sha,
Terrible things will happen to those who [think that] [IRO] they are great/heroes because they are able to drink [lots of] wine, and boast about being able to mix good alcoholic drinks.
23 waɗanda suke ƙyale masu laifi don sun ba da cin hanci, amma su hana a yi gaskiya wa marasa laifi.
If people offer them bribes in order that they will enable wicked people not to be punished, they accept those bribes, and they cause people who are innocent to be punished.
24 Saboda haka kamar yadda harshen wuta yakan lashe kara kuma kamar yadda busasshiyar ciyawa takan ƙone ƙurmus a cikin wuta, haka saiwarsu za su ruɓa iska kuma ta hura furanninsu kamar ƙura; gama sun ƙi dokar Ubangiji Maɗaukaki suka kuma ƙyale maganar Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila.
Therefore, just like [SIM] fires burn up stubble and dry grass shrivels up and quickly burns in flames, [it will be as though] those people have roots that will rot and have flowers that will wither. [That will happen] because they rejected the laws of the Commander of the armies of angels; they have despised the messages of the Holy One of Israel.
25 Saboda haka fushin Ubangiji ya yi ƙuna a kan mutanensa; ya ɗaga hannunsa ya kuma buge su. Duwatsu sun jijjigu, gawawwaki kuwa suka zama kamar juji a tituna. Saboda wannan duka, fushinsa bai huce ba, bai kuwa janye hannunsa ba.
That is why Yahweh is [extremely] angry [with his people]; [it is as though] his hand is raised [and he is ready to smash them]. [When he does that], the mountains will shake, and the corpses of people will be scattered in the streets like [SIM] manure. But even when that happens, Yahweh will still be very angry; he will be ready to punish his people [MET] again.
26 Ya ɗaga tuta don al’ummai masu nisa, ya yi feɗuwa wa waɗanda suke a iyakar duniya. Ga shi sun iso, da sauri da kuma gaggawa!
Yahweh will send a signal to summon [armies of] nations far away; [it is as though] he will whistle [to summon those soldiers who are] in very remote places on the earth. They will come very swiftly [DOU] [to Jerusalem].
27 Babu ko ɗayansu da ya gaji ko ya yi tuntuɓe, babu ko ɗaya da ya yi gyangyaɗi ko barci; babu abin ɗamarar da ya kunce a gindi, ba igiyar takalmin da ta tsinke.
They will not get tired or stumble. They will not [stop to] rest or to sleep. None of their belts will be loose, and none of them will have sandals with broken straps, [so they will all be ready to fight in battles].
28 Kibiyoyinsu masu tsini ne, an ɗaura dukan bakkunansu; kofatan dawakansu sun yi kamar dutsen ƙanƙara, ƙafafun keken yaƙinsu kamar guguwa ne.
Their arrows will be sharp, and their bows will be ready [to shoot those arrows in a battle]. [Because their horses pull the chariots fast], sparks will shoot out from their hooves, and the wheels of the chariots will spin like a whirlwind.
29 Rurinsu ya yi kamar na zaki, suna ruri kamar’yan zakoki; suna yin gurnani yayinda suke kamun abin da suke farauta su ɗauke shi ba mai ƙwace shi.
They will roar like [very strong] lions [DOU] that growl and [then] pounce on the animals they want to kill and carry them off, and no one is able to rescue them.
30 A wannan rana za su yi ta ruri a kansa kamar rurin teku. Kuma in wani ya dubi ƙasar, zai ga duhu da damuwa; haske ma zai zama duhu ta wurin gizagizai.
[Similarly, your enemies] will roar when they see the people they are about to kill, like [SIM] the sea roars. [On that day], if someone looks across the land, he will see [only people who are in] darkness and distressed; [it will be as though] even the sunlight is hidden by dark clouds.
