< Ishaya 7 >

1 Sa’ad da Ahaz ɗan Yotam, ɗan Uzziya, yake sarkin Yahuda, Sarki Rezin na Aram da Feka ɗan Remaliya sarkin Isra’ila suka haura don su yaƙi Urushalima, amma ba su iya cinta da yaƙi ba.
And it came to pass in the days of Achaz the son of Jotham, the son of 'Uzziyahu, the king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekach the son of Remalyahu, the king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it; but were not able to make an attack upon it.
2 Sai fa aka faɗa wa gidan Dawuda cewa, “Aram ya haɗa kansa da Efraim”; saboda haka zuciyar Ahaz da ta mutanensa suka firgita, sai ka ce itatuwa a kurmin da iska ta girgiza.
And it was told unto the house of David, saying, Syria is encamped with Ephraim; and his heart trembled, with the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are shaken before the wind.
3 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Ishaya, “Fita, kai da ɗanka Sheyar-Yashub, don ku sadu da Ahaz a ƙarshen wuriyar da take kawo ruwa daga Tafkin Tudu, a hanyar Filin Mai Wanki.
And the Lord said unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Achaz, thou with Shear-yashub thy son, to the end of the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the highway of the washer's field;
4 Ka faɗa masa, ‘Ka yi hankali, ka natsu kada kuma ka ji tsoro ko ka damu, kada ka ji tsoron fushin sarki Rezin da na Aram da na ɗan Remaliya, ba wani abu mai hatsari ba ne, bai fi hayaƙin’yan ƙirare biyu da suke cin wuta ba.
And thou shalt say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, and let thy heart not become faint because of these two stumps of smoking firebrands, before the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remalyahu.
5 Aram, Efraim da ɗan Remaliya sun ƙulla maƙarƙashiya, suna cewa,
Forasmuch as Syria, [with] Ephraim and the son of Remalyahu, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,
6 “Bari mu kai wa Yahuda hari; bari mu yayyage su mu rarraba su a tsakaninmu, mu naɗa Tabeyel sarki a kansu.”
Let us go up against Judah, and besiege it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set up as king in the midst of it the son of Tabeal:
7 Duk da haka ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka ya ce, “‘Ba zai faru ba, ba zai auku ba,
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, It shall not succeed, and it shall not come to pass.
8 gama kan Aram shi ne Damaskus, kan Damaskus kuma kawai shi ne Rezin. Cikin shekaru sittin da biyar za a wargaje Efraim har ba za tă iya rayuwa ta zama al’umma ba.
For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin: and within sixty and five years shall Ephraim be broken, to be no more a people.
9 Kan Efraim shi ne Samariya, kan Samariya kuma kawai shi ne ɗan Remaliya. In ba ku tsaya da ƙarfi cikin bangaskiyarku ba, ba za ku dawwama ba.’”
And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remalyahu's son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not have permanence.
10 Ubangiji ya kuma yi magana wa Ahaz ya ce,
And the Lord continued to speak unto Achaz, saying,
11 “Ka roƙi Ubangiji Allahnka yă ba ka alama, ko daga zurfafa masu zurfi ko kuwa daga can cikin sama.” (Sheol h7585)
Ask thee a sign from the Lord thy God; ask it in the depth, or high up above. (Sheol h7585)
12 Amma Ahaz ya ce, “Ba zan nema ba; ba zan gwada Ubangiji ba.”
But Achaz said, I will not ask, and I will not tempt the Lord.
13 Sa’an nan Ishaya ya ce, “To, ku saurara, ya ku gidan Dawuda! Abin kirki kuke yi ne da kuka ƙure haƙurin jama’a? Ko haƙurin Allah ne kuma kuke so ku ƙure?
And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David! Is it too little for you to weary men, that ye will weary also my God?
14 Saboda haka Ubangiji kansa zai ba ku alama. Ga shi budurwa za tă yi ciki, za tă haifi ɗa, za tă kuwa kira shi Immanuwel.
Therefore will the Lord himself give you a sign: behold, this young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and she shall call his name 'Immanu-el, [God with us].
15 In ya yi girma har ya isa yanke shawara don kansa, madara da zuma ne abincinsa.
Cream and honey shall he eat, so soon as he knoweth to refuse the evil, and to choose the good.
16 Amma kafin yaron yă isa yanke shawara yă ƙi abin da yake mummuna, yă zaɓi abin da yake nagari, ƙasashen sarakunan nan biyu da kuke tsoro za su zama kango.
For before yet the child shall know to refuse the evil, and to choose the good, shall be forsaken the land, of the kings of which thou feelest dread.
17 Ubangiji zai aukar maka da kwanakin wahala, kai da jama’arka, da dukan iyalin gidan sarauta, waɗanda suka fi muni tun lokacin da aka raba mulkin Efraim daga na Yahuda, zai kawo sarkin Assuriya.”
The Lord will bring over thee, and over thy people, and over thy father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim withdrew from Judah, —the king of Assyria.
18 A wannan rana Ubangiji zai yi feɗuwa yă kira ƙudaje daga rafuffuka masu nisa na Masar da kuma ƙudan zuma daga ƙasar Assuriya.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that the Lord will call for the fly that is in the uttermost end of the streams of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
19 Za su zo su mamaye kwazazzabai da kogwanni cikin duwatsu, a kan dukan ƙayayyuwa da dukan rammukan ruwa.
And they shall come, and shall encamp, all of them, in the desolate valleys, and in the clefts of the rocks, and upon all thorn-hedges, and upon all bushes.
20 A wannan rana Ubangiji zai yi amfani da rezan da aka yi haya daga ƙetaren Kogi, sarkin Assuriya ke nan, yă aske kanku da gashin ƙafafunku, zai kuma aske gemunku.
On the same day will the Lord shave with the razor that is hired, from among those on the other side of the river, with the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and also the beard shall it entirely remove.
21 A ranar, mutum zai bar karsana ɗaya da awaki biyu da rai.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that a man shall nourish [but] one young cow, and two sheep;
22 Kuma saboda yalwa madarar da suke bayarwa, zai kasance da madarar da zai sha. Dukan waɗanda suka rage a ƙasar za su sha madara da zuma.
And it shall happen, that for the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat cream; for cream and honey shall eat every one that is left in the midst of the land.
23 A wannan rana, a kowane wuri inda akwai kuringa dubu da kuɗinsu ya kai shekel dubu na azurfa, ƙayayyuwa da sarƙaƙƙiya ne kawai za su kasance a can.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that every place, where there are [now] a thousand vines worth a thousand silver shekels, shall be, —yea, this shall be [given up] to briers and thorns.
24 Mutane za su je can da baka da kibiyoyi, gama ƙayayyuwa da sarƙaƙƙiya ne za su rufe ƙasar.
With arrows and with bows shall men enter thither; because all the land shall become [covered with] briers and thorns.
25 Game da dukan tuddai da dā ake nome da garemani kuwa, ba za ku ƙara je wurin ba saboda tsoron ƙayayyuwa da sarƙaƙƙiya; za su zama wuraren da ake kai shanu a sake su su yi ta yawo da kansu, tumaki kuma su yi ta gudu.
And all mountains that are worked with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: and they shall serve for the pasture of oxen, and for the treading of sheep.
