< Ishaya 51 >
1 “Ku kasa kunne gare ni, ku da kuna neman adalci kuke kuma neman Ubangiji. Dubi dutse daga inda aka yanke ku da kuma mahaƙar duwatsu inda aka fafe ku;
Hearken unto me, Ye that pursue righteousness, Ye that seek Yahweh, —Look well unto the rock whence ye were hewn, And unto the quarry whence ye were digged:
2 dubi Ibrahim, mahaifinku, da Saratu, wadda ta haife ku. Sa’ad da na kira shi kaɗai ne, na kuma albarkace shi na kuma mai da shi da yawa.
Look well unto Abraham your father, And unto Sarah who gave you birth, —For he was, alone, when called I him, And, I blessed him that I might make him, many.
3 Tabbatacce Ubangiji zai ta’azantar da Sihiyona zai kuma duba da tausayi a kan dukan kufanta; zai sa hamadanta ta zama kamar Eden, ƙeƙasasshiyar ƙasarta kamar lambun Ubangiji. Za a sami farin ciki da murna a cikinta, godiya da ƙarar rerawa.
For Yahweh hath comforted Zion, He hath comforted all her waste places, And hath made her wilderness like Eden, And her waste plain like the garden of Yahweh, —Joy and gladness, shall be found in her, Thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
4 “Ku kasa kunne gare ni, mutanena; ku ji ni, al’ummata. Doka za tă fito daga gare ni; shari’ata za tă zama haske ga al’ummai.
Attend unto me, O my people, And, O, my nation unto me give ear, —For, instruction, from me, shall go forth, And, my justice—for a light of peoples, will I establish:
5 Adalcina na zuwa da sauri, cetona yana a kan hanya, hannuna kuma zai kawo adalci ga al’ummai. Tsibirai za su dube ni su kuma jira da sa zuciya don hannuna.
At hand is my righteousness. Gone forth hath my salvation, And, mine own arms, unto the peoples, shall give justice, —Upon me, Coastlands, shall wait, And for mine arm, shall they hope.
6 Ku daga idanunku zuwa sammai ku dubi duniya a ƙasa; sammai za su ɓace kamar hayaƙi, duniya za tă shuɗe kamar riga mazaunanta kuma su mutu kamar ƙudaje. Amma cetona zai dawwama har abada, adalcina ba zai taɓa kāsa ba.
Lift up—to the heavens—your eyes, And look around to the earth beneath Though, the heavens, like smoke, should have vanished And, the earth, like a garment, should fall to pieces, And, her inhabitants, in like manner, should die, Yet, my salvation, unto times age-abiding, shall continue, And, my righteousness, shall not be broken down.
7 “Ku ji ni, ku da kuka san abin da yake daidai, ku mutanen da kuke da dokata a zukatanku. Kada ku ji tsoron ba’ar da mutane suke yi ko ku firgita saboda zargin da suke yi.
Hearken unto me ye who discern righteousness, The people in whose heart is my law, —Do not fear the reproach of frail men, Nor at their revilings, be dismayed;
8 Gama asu za su cinye su kamar riga; tsutsotsi za su cinye su kamar ulu. Amma adalcina zai dawwama har abada, cetona har dukan zamanai.”
For like a garment, shall they be eaten of the moth, And like wool, shall they be eaten of the larva; But, my righteousness, unto times age-abiding shall continue, And, my salvation, unto the remotest generation.
9 Ka tashi, ka tashi! Ka yafa wa kanka ƙarfi, Ya hannun Ubangiji; ka farka, kamar a kwanakin da suka wuce, kamar a zamanai na dā. Ba kai ba ne wanda ya yayyanka Rahab gunduwa-gunduwa, wanda ya soki dodon ruwan nan?
Awake, awake put on strength, O arm of Yahweh, Awake, As in days of old, The generations of bygone ages: Art not thou that which—Hewed down Rahab, Piercing the Crocodile?
10 Ba kai ba ne ka busar da teku, ka busar da ruwan zurfafa masu girma, wanda ya yi hanya a cikin zurfafan teku saboda fansassu su ƙetare?
Art not thou that which dried up—The Sea, The waters of the mighty Deep, —That which made of the abysses of the sea a road for the passing over of the redeemed?
11 Waɗanda Ubangiji ya fansar za su dawo. Za su shiga Sihiyona da waƙoƙi; madawwamin farin ciki zai rufe kansu da rawani. Murna da farin ciki zai cika su, baƙin ciki da nishi zai ɓace.
Therefore, the ransomed of Yahweh, shall again come unto Zion, with shouts of triumph, With gladness age-abiding on their head, —Joy, and gladness, shall overtake [them]. Sorrow and sighing have fled away.
12 “Ni kaɗai ne na ta’azantar da ku. Wane ne ku da kuke tsoron mutane masu mutuwa,’ya’yan mutane waɗanda suke ciyawa ne kawai,
I—I, am he that comforteth you, —Who art, thou, that thou hast feared Frail man that dieth, and A son of the earthborn, who, as grass, shall be delivered up?
13 har da kuka manta da Ubangiji Mahaliccinku, wanda ya shimfiɗa sammai ya kuma kafa harsashen duniya, har kuna zama da tsoro kowace rana saboda fushin masu zalunci, waɗanda sun ƙudura sai sun hallaka? Gama ina fushin mai zalunci?
That thou hast forgotten Yahweh thy maker, Who stretched out the heavens And founded the earth? That thou hast dreaded continually, all the day, by reason of the fury of the oppressor, in that he was ready to destroy? Where then is the fury of the oppressor?
14 Ba da daɗewa za a’yantar da’yan kurkuku; ba za su mutu a kurkuku ba, ba kuwa za su rasa abinci ba.
The captive hath hastened to be loosed, —That he might not die in the pit. Neither should, his bread, be cut off.
15 Gama ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku, wanda ya dama teku domin raƙumansa su yi ruri, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ne sunansa.
But, I—Yahweh, am thy God, Who threw into commotion the sea And the waves thereof roared, —Yahweh of hosts, is his name.
16 Na sa maganata a bakinka na kuma rufe ka da inuwar hannuna, Na shimfiɗa sammai, na kafa harsashen duniya, na kuma ce wa Sihiyona, ‘Ku mutanena ne.’”
Therefore have I put my words in thy mouth, And with the shadow of my hand, have I covered thee, —To plant the heavens, and To lay the foundations of the earth, and To say unto Zion My people, thou art!
17 Ki farka, ki farka! Ki tashi, ya Urushalima, ke da kika sha daga hannun Ubangiji kwaf na fushinsa, ke da kika shanye har ƙasar kwaf kwaf da ya sa mutane suna tangaɗi.
Rouse thee—rouse, thee stand up, O Jerusalem, Who hast drunk, at the hand of Yahweh, his cup of indignation: The goblet-cup of confusion, hast thou drunk—hast thou drained.
18 Cikin dukan’ya’yan da ta haifa; cikin dukan’ya’yan da ta yi reno babu wani da zai kama hannunta.
There is none to guide her, Among all the sons she hath borne, —There is none to grasp her hand, Among all the sons she hath brought up.
19 Waɗannan masifu riɓi biyu sun auko miki, wa zai ta’azantar da ke? Lalaci da hallaka, yunwa da takobi, wa zai ƙarfafa ki?
Twain, are the things befalling thee, Who will lament for thee? Wasting and destruction and famine and sword By whom shall I comfort thee?
20 ’Ya’yanki sun sume; sun kwanta kusurwar kowane titi, kamar barewar da aka kama da tarko. Sun cika da fushin Ubangiji da kuma tsawatawar Allahnki.
Thy sons, have fainted, They lie at the head of all the streets like a gazelle in a net, —Who, indeed, are full of The indignation of Yahweh The rebuke of thy God.
21 Saboda haka ki ji wannan, ke mai wahala, wadda ta bugu, amma ba da ruwan inabi.
Therefore, hear, I pray thee, this, thou humbled one, —And drunken but not with wine: —
22 Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka yana cewa, Allahnki, wanda ya kāre mutanensa, “Duba, na ƙwace daga hannunki kwaf da ya sa ki tangaɗi; daga wannan kwaf, kwaf na fushina, ba za ki ƙara sha ba.
Thus, saith Thy Lord, Yahweh, Even thy God who pleadeth the cause of his people: —Lo! I have taken, out of thy hand, the cup of confusion, —As for the goblet-cup of mine indignation, Thou shalt not again drink it, any more;
23 Zan sa shi a hannuwan masu gwada miki azaba, waɗanda suke ce miki, ‘Fāɗi rubda ciki don mu iya taka a kanki.’ Kika kuma mai da bayanki kamar ƙasa, kamar titin da ake takawa a kai.”
But I will put it into the hand of thy tormentors, Who said to thy soul, Bow down that we may pass over, —And so thou didst place as the ground, thy back, Yea as the street to such as were passing along.
