Ishaya 64
1 Da ma za ka tsage sammai ka sauko, ai, da duwatsu za su yi rawar jiki a gabanka!
Would that thou hadst rent the heavens, hadst come down,
2 Kamar sa’ad da wuta takan ci rassa ta sa ruwa ya tafasa, ka sauko ka sanar da sunanka ga abokan gābanka ka kuma sa al’ummai su yi rawan jiki a gabanka!
At thy presence, had mountains, quaked: As fire kindleth brushwood, [As] fire causeth, water, to boil, So if thou wouldst make known thy Name to thine adversaries, At thy presence, nations, would tremble.
3 Gama sa’ad da ka aikata abubuwan bantsoron da ba mu sa tsammani ba, ka sauko, duwatsu kuma suka yi rawar jiki a gabanka.
When thou didst fearful things we could not expect, Thou camest down at thy presence, mountains, quaked.
4 Tun fil azal babu wanda ya taɓa ji, babu kunnen da ya gane, babu idon da ya ga wani Allah in ban da kai, wanda ya aikata waɗannan al’amura a madadin waɗanda suke sa zuciya a gare shi.
Although from age-past times It was never heard, It was not perceived by the ear, —Neither did, the eye, ever see—That, a god besides thee, could work for the man who waited for him,
5 Kakan taimaki waɗanda suke murnan yin abin da yake daidai, waɗanda sukan tuna da hanyoyinka. Amma sa’ad da muka ci gaba da yin zunubi, kakan yi fushi. Ta yaya za mu sami ceto ke nan?
Yet didst thou meet Him who was rejoicing and working righteousness, Even them who in thy ways, remembered thee, —Lo! thou, hast been vexed, And truly we had sinned, Among them, was the prospect of an age [to come], That we might be saved.
6 Dukanmu mun zama kamar wanda yake marar tsabta, kuma dukan ayyukanmu masu adalci sun zama kamar ƙazaman tsummoki; duk mun zama kamar busasshen ganye, kamar iska haka zunubanmu sukan share mu.
But we have become as one unclean all of us, And, as a garment polluted, were all our righteous doings, —And so we faded like a leaf all of us, And, our iniquity, as a wind, carried us away;
7 Babu wanda yake kira bisa sunanka ko ya yi ƙoƙarin riƙe ka; gama ka ɓoye fuskarka daga gare mu ka kuma sa muka lalace saboda zunubanmu.
And there was none To call upon thy Name, To rouse himself to lay firm hold on thee, —For thou hadst hidden thy face from us, And hadst made us despond, by means of our iniquity.
8 Duk da haka, Ubangiji, kai ne Ubanmu. Mu yumɓu ne, kai kuma mai ginin tukwane; dukanmu aikin hannunka ne.
But, now, O Yahweh, our father, thou art, —We are the clay, and, thou, art our potter, Yea the work of thy hand, are we all:
9 Kada ka yi fushi fiye da kima, ya Ubangiji; kada ka tuna da zunubanmu har abada. Da ma ka dube mu, muna roƙonka, gama dukanmu mutanenka ne.
Do not be indignant, O Yahweh so very greatly, Neither perpetually, do thou recall iniquity, —Lo! look around, we pray thee…thy people, are, we all.
10 Biranenka masu tsarki sun zama hamada; har Sihiyona ma ta zama hamada; Urushalima ta zama kango.
Thy holy cities, have become a wilderness, —Zion, a wilderness, hath become, Jerusalem, a desolation!
11 Haikalinmu mai tsarki da kuma mai daraja, inda kakanninmu suka yabe ka, an ƙone da wuta, kuma dukan abubuwan da muke ƙauna sun lalace.
Our holy and our beautiful house Where our fathers praised thee, Hath become a conflagration, —And, all our delightful places, are in ruins!
12 Bayan dukan wannan, ya Ubangiji, ba za ka yi wani abu ba? Za ka yi shiru ka hore mu fiye da kima?
In view of these things, wilt thou restrain thyself. O Yahweh? Wilt thou hold thy peace and humble us so very greatly?
