< Ishaya 58 >
1 “Ku yi ihu da ƙarfi, ba ƙaƙƙautawa. Ku tā da muryarku kamar busar ƙaho. Ku furta wa mutanena tawayensu da kuma ga gidan Yaƙub zunubansu.
Cry aloud, and spare not; lift up thy voice as with a trumpet, and declare to my people their sins, and to the house of Jacob their iniquities.
2 Gama kowace rana suna nemana; suna marmarin sanin hanyoyina, sai ka ce al’ummar da take yin abin da yake daidai ba ta kuma yashe umarnan Allahnta ba. Sun nemi shawarwaran da suke daidai daga gare ni suna kuma marmari Allah ya zo kusa da su.
They seek me day by day, and desire to know my ways, as a people that had done righteousness, and had not forsaken the judgment of their God: they now ask of me righteous judgment, and desire to draw nigh to God,
3 Suna cewa, ‘Don me muka yi azumi, ba ka kuma gani ba? Me ya sa muka ƙasƙantar da kanmu, ba ka kuma lura da wannan ba?’ “Duk da haka a ranar azuminku, kuna yi yadda kuka ga dama kuna kuma zaluntar dukan ma’aikata.
saying, Why have we fasted, and thou regardest not? [why] have we afflicted our souls, and thou didst not know it? Nay, in the days of your fasts ye find your pleasures, and all them that are under your power ye wound.
4 Azuminku yakan ƙare a faɗa da kuma hargitsi, kuna ta naushin juna da mugayen naushe-naushe. Ba za ku iya azumi kamar yadda kuke yi a yau ku zaci za a ji muryarku can sama.
If ye fast for quarrels and strifes, and smite the lowly with [your] fists, wherefore do ye fast to me as [ye do] this day, so that your voice may be heard in crying?
5 Irin azumin da na zaɓa ke nan, rana guda kawai don mutum ya ƙasƙantar da kansa? Sunkuyar da kanku kamar iwa kawai kuna kuma kwance a tsummoki da toka? Abin da kuke kira azumi ke nan rana yardajje ga Ubangiji?
I have not chosen this fast, nor [such] a day for a man to afflict his soul; neither though thou shouldest bend down thy neck as a ring, and spread under thee sackcloth and ashes, neither thus shall ye call a fast acceptable.
6 “Irin azumin da na zaɓa shi ne, a kunce sarƙoƙin rashin adalci a kuma kunce igiyoyin karkiya, a’yantar da waɗanda ake zalunta a kuma kakkarye kowace karkiya?
I have not chosen such a fast, saith the Lord; but do thou loose every burden of iniquity, do thou untie the knots of hard bargains, set the bruised free, and cancel every unjust account.
7 Ba shi ne ku rarraba abincinku da mayunwata ku kuma tanada wa matalauta masu yawo mahalli, sa’ad da kuka ga wanda yake tsirara, ku yi masa sutura, kada kuma ku ba wa namanku da jininku baya?
Break thy bread to the hungry, and lead the unsheltered poor to thy house: if thou seest one naked, clothe [him], and thou shalt not disregard the relations of thine own seed.
8 Sa’an nan haskenku zai keto kamar ketowar alfijir, warkarwarku kuma zai bayyana nan da nan; sa’an nan adalcinku zai tafi a gabanku, ɗaukakar Ubangiji kuma zai tsare ku daga baya.
Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy health shall speedily spring forth: and thy righteousness shall go before thee, and the glory of God shall compass thee.
9 Sa’an nan za ku yi kira, Ubangiji kuma zai amsa; za ku yi kuka don neman taimako, zai kuwa ce ga ni nan. “In kuka kawar da karkiyar zalunci, kuka daina nuna wa juna yatsa da kuma faɗar mugayen maganganu,
Then shalt thou cry, and God shall hearken to thee; while thou art yet speaking he will say, Behold, I am here. If thou remove from thee the band, and the stretching forth of the hands, and murmuring speech;
10 in kuma kuka ɗauki lokaci kuka ƙosar da mayunwata kuka kuma biya bukatun waɗanda suke shan tsanani, sa’an nan ne haskenku zai haskaka cikin duhu darenku kuma zai zama kamar tsakar rana.
and [if] thou give bread to the hungry from thy heart, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light spring up in darkness, and thy darkness [shall be] as noon-day:
11 Ubangiji zai bishe ku kullum; zai biya muku bukatunku a ƙasa mai zafin rana ya kuma ƙarfafa ƙasusuwanku. Za ku zama kamar lambun da aka yi masa banruwa, kamar rafin da ruwansa ba ya ƙafewa.
and thy God shall be with thee continually, and thou shalt be satisfied according as thy soul desires; and thy bones shall be made fat, and shall be as a well-watered garden, and as a fountain [from] which the water has not failed.
12 Mutanenku za su sāke gina kufai na da su kuma daga tsofaffin harsashai; za a ce da ku Masu Gyaran Katangar da ta Rushe, Masu Farfaɗo da Tituna da kuma Wuraren zama.
And thy old waste desert [places] shall be built up, and thy foundations shall last through all generations; and thou shalt be called a repairer of breaches, and thou shalt cause thy paths between to be in peace.
13 “In kun kiyaye ƙafafunku daga take Asabbaci da kuma daga aikata abin da kuka gan dama a ranata mai tsarki, in kuka kira Asabbaci ranar murna rana mai tsarki ta Ubangiji kuma mai bangirma, in kuka girmama ta ta wurin ƙin yin abin da kuka gan dama da kuma yin al’amuranku ko yin mugayen maganganu,
If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, so as not to do thy pleasure on the holy days, and shalt call the sabbaths delightful, holy to God; [if] thou shalt not lift up thy foot to work, nor speak a word in anger out of thy mouth,
14 sa’an nan za ku yi farin ciki a cikin Ubangiji, zan kuma sa ku a kan maɗaukaka ƙasashe ku kuma yi biki a gādon mahaifinku Yaƙub.” Ni Ubangiji ne na faɗa.
then shalt thou trust on the Lord; and he shall bring thee up to the good places of the land, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the Lord has spoken this.
