< Ishaya 9 >
1 Duk da haka, babu sauran baƙin ciki ga waɗanda suke shan azaba. Dā ya ƙasƙantar da ƙasar kabilan Zebulun da ƙasar Naftali, amma nan gaba zai girmama Galili na Al’ummai, ta hanyar teku wadda take ta Urdun.
Nevertheless the darkness shall not be as when the distress was in the [land], at the time he at first lightly, and afterwards heavily, visited the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, — the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations:
2 Mutanen da suke tafiya cikin duhu sun ga babban haske; a kan waɗanda suke zama a ƙasar inuwar mutuwa haske ya haskaka.
the people that walked in darkness have seen a great light; they that dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, upon them light hath shone.
3 Ka fadada al’umma ka kuma ƙara farin cikinsu; suna farin ciki a gabanka yadda mutane sukan yi murna a lokacin girbi, kamar yadda mutane sukan yi farin ciki sa’ad da suke raba ganima.
Thou hast multiplied the nation, hast increased its joy: they joy before thee like to the joy in harvest; as [men] rejoice when they divide the spoil.
4 Gama kamar yadda yake a kwanakin da aka ci Midiyan da yaƙi, kuka ji tsoro nauyin da ya nawaita musu, sandar da yake a kafaɗunsu, sandar masu zaluncinsu.
For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian.
5 Kowane takalmin jarumin da aka yi amfani da shi a yaƙi da kuma kowane rigar da ka naɗe cikin jini zai kasance an ƙone shi zai kuma zama abin hura wuta.
For every boot of him that is shod for the tumult, and the garment rolled in blood, shall be for burning, fuel for fire.
6 Gama a gare mu an haifa mana yaro, a gare mu an ba da ɗa, gwamnati za tă kasance a kafaɗarsa. Za a ce da shi Mashawarci Mai Banmamaki, Allah Maɗaukaki Uban Madawwami, Sarkin Salama.
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name is called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Father of Eternity, Prince of Peace.
7 Game da girmar gwamnatinsa da salama babu iyaka. Zai gāji sarki Dawuda, yă yi mulki a matsayinsa, zai kafa mulkinsa a kan adalci da gaskiya, tun daga yanzu har zuwa ƙarshen zamani. Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ne ya yi niyyar aikata wannan duka.
Of the increase of his government and of peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with judgment and with righteousness, from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of Jehovah of hosts will perform this.
8 Ubangiji ya aika da saƙon gāba da Yaƙub; zai auka wa Isra’ila.
The Lord sent a word unto Jacob, and it lighteth upon Israel.
9 Dukan mutane za su san shi, Efraim da mazaunan Samariya, waɗanda suke magana da fariya suna kuma ɗaga kai,
And all the people shall know [it], Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in pride and stoutness of heart,
10 “Tubalai sun zube a ƙasa, amma za mu sāke gina su da dutse; an sassare itatuwan ɓaure, amma za mu maya su da al’ul.”
The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones; the sycamore trees are cut down, but we will replace them with cedars.
11 Amma Ubangiji ya ƙarfafa maƙiyan Rezin gāba da su ya kuma ingiza abokan gāba.
And Jehovah will set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and arm his enemies,
12 Arameyawa daga gabas da Filistiyawa daga yamma sun cinye Isra’ila da buɗaɗɗen baki. Duk da haka, fushinsa bai huce ba, hannunsa har yanzu yana a miƙe.
the Syrians on the east, and the Philistines on the west; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, and his hand is stretched out still.
13 Amma mutanen ba su juyo wurin wanda ya buge su ba, balle su nemi Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
But the people turneth not unto him that smiteth them, and they do not seek Jehovah of hosts.
14 Saboda haka Ubangiji zai yanke Isra’ila kai da wutsiya, da reshen dabino da iwa a rana guda;
And Jehovah will cut off from Israel head and tail, palm-branch and rush, in one day:
15 dattawa da manyan mutane su ne kai, annabawa waɗanda suke koyar da ƙarairayi su ne wutsiya.
the ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.
16 Waɗanda suke jagorar wannan mutane suna ɓad da su, su ne waɗanda ake jagora aka sa suka kauce.
For the guides of this people mislead [them]; and they that are guided by them are swallowed up.
17 Saboda haka Ubangiji ba zai ji daɗin matasa ba, ba kuwa zai ji tausayin marayu da gwauraye ba, gama kowa marar sanin Allah ne da kuma mugu, kowane baki yana faɗin mugayen maganganu. Duk da haka, fushinsa bai huce ba, hannunsa har yanzu yana a miƙe.
Therefore the Lord will not rejoice in their young men, neither will he have mercy on their fatherless and on their widows; for every one is a hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, and his hand is stretched out still.
18 Tabbatacce mugunta tana ƙuna kamar wuta; tana cin ƙayayyuwa da sarƙaƙƙiya, ta sa wuta a jeji mai itatuwa masu yawa, don yă yi murtuke hayaƙi har zuwa sama.
For wickedness burneth as a fire: it devoureth briars and thorns, and kindleth in the thickets of the forest, and they go rolling up like a pillar of smoke.
19 Ta wurin fushin Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ƙasar za tă ci wuta mutane kuma za su zama abin hura wutar, babu wanda zai ji tausayin ɗan’uwansa.
Through the wrath of Jehovah of hosts is the land burned up, and the people is as fuel for fire: a man spareth not his brother;
20 A dama za su ci, amma su ci gaba da jin yunwa; a hagu za su ci, amma ba za su ƙoshi ba. Kowa zai mai da naman’ya’yansa abinci.
and he snatcheth on the right hand, and is hungry, and eateth on the left hand; and they are not satisfied. They eat every man the flesh of his own arm:
21 Manasse zai mai da Efraim abinci, Efraim kuma yă cinye Manasse; tare za su yi gāba da Yahuda. Duk da haka, fushinsa bai huce ba, hannunsa har yanzu yana a miƙe.
Manasseh, Ephraim, and Ephraim, Manasseh; [and] they together are against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, and his hand is stretched out still.
