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.
As the former time made light The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, So the latter hath honoured 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 who are walking in darkness Have seen a great light, Dwellers in a land of death-shade, Light hath shone upon them.
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, Thou hast made great its joy, They have joyed before Thee as the joy in harvest, As [men] rejoice in their apportioning 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.
Because the yoke of its burden, And the staff of its shoulder, the rod of its exactor, Thou hast broken 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 battle of a warrior [is] with rushing, and raiment rolled in blood, And it hath been for burning — fuel of 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 a Child hath been born to us, A Son hath been given to us, And the princely power is on his shoulder, And He doth call his name 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.
To the increase of the princely power, And of peace, there is no end, On the throne of David, and on his kingdom, To establish it, and to support it, In judgment and in righteousness, Henceforth, even unto the age, The zeal of Jehovah of Hosts doth this.
8 Ubangiji ya aika da saƙon gāba da Yaƙub; zai auka wa Isra’ila.
A word hath the Lord sent into Jacob, And it hath fallen in Israel.
9 Dukan mutane za su san shi, Efraim da mazaunan Samariya, waɗanda suke magana da fariya suna kuma ɗaga kai,
And the people have known — all of it, Ephraim, and the inhabitant of Samaria, In pride and in greatness of heart, saying,
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.”
'Bricks have fallen, and hewn work we build, Sycamores have been cut down, and cedars we renew.'
11 Amma Ubangiji ya ƙarfafa maƙiyan Rezin gāba da su ya kuma ingiza abokan gāba.
And Jehovah setteth the adversaries of Rezin on high above him, And his enemies he joineth together,
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.
Aram from before, and Philistia from behind, And they devour Israel with the whole mouth. With all this not turned back hath His anger, And still His hand is stretched out.
13 Amma mutanen ba su juyo wurin wanda ya buge su ba, balle su nemi Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
And the people hath not turned back unto Him who is smiting it, And Jehovah of Hosts they have not sought.
14 Saboda haka Ubangiji zai yanke Isra’ila kai da wutsiya, da reshen dabino da iwa a rana guda;
And Jehovah cutteth off from Israel head and tail, Branch and reed — the same day,
15 dattawa da manyan mutane su ne kai, annabawa waɗanda suke koyar da ƙarairayi su ne wutsiya.
Elder, and accepted of face, he [is] the head, Prophet, teacher of falsehood, he [is] the tail.
16 Waɗanda suke jagorar wannan mutane suna ɓad da su, su ne waɗanda ake jagora aka sa suka kauce.
And the eulogists of this people are causing to err, And its eulogised ones are consumed.
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, over its young men the Lord rejoiceth not, And its orphans, and its widows He pitieth not, For every one [is] profane, and an evil doer, And every mouth is speaking folly. With all this not turned back hath His anger, And still His hand is stretched out.
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 burned as a fire hath wickedness, Brier and thorn it devoureth, And it kindleth in thickets of the forest, And they lift themselves up, an exaltation 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.
In the wrath of Jehovah of Hosts Hath the land been consumed, And the people is as fuel of fire; A man on his brother hath no pity,
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 cutteth down on the right, and hath been hungry, And he devoureth on the left, And they have not been satisfied, Each the flesh of his own arm they devour.
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, Together they [are] against Judah, With all this not turned back hath His anger. And still His hand is stretched out!
