Ishaya 1
1 Wahayi game da Yahuda da Urushalima wanda Ishaya ɗan Amoz ya gani a zamanin da Uzziya, Yotam, Ahaz da Hezekiya, suka yi mulkin Yahuda.
The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of 'Uzziyahu, Jotham, Achaz, and Hezekiah, the kings of Judah.
2 Ku kasa kunne, ya sammai! Ki saurara, ya duniya! Gama Ubangiji ya yi magana, “Na yi renon’ya’ya, na kuma raya su, amma sun tayar mini.
Hear, O ye heavens, and give ear, O earth; for the Lord hath spoken: Children have I nourished and brought up, but they have rebelled against me.
3 Saniya ta san maigidanta, jaki ya san wurin sa wa dabbobi abinci maigidansa, amma Isra’ila ba su sani, mutanena ba su gane ba.”
The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib: Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider.
4 Kash, ya ke al’umma mai zunubi, mutane cike da laifi, tarin masu aikata mugunta,’ya’yan da aka miƙa wa lalaci! Sun yashe Ubangiji; sun rena Mai Tsarkin nan na Isra’ila suka juya masa baya.
Woe! sinful nation, people laden with iniquity, seed of evil-doers, children that are corrupt: they have forsaken the Lord, they have incensed the Holy One of Israel, they are departed backward.
5 Me ya sa za a ƙara yin muku dūka? Me ya sa kuka nace ga yin tayarwa? An yi wa dukan kanku rauni, zuciyarku duk tana ciwo.
Why will ye be stricken yet more? [that] ye increase the revolt? every head is sick, and every heart is faint.
6 Daga tafin ƙafarku zuwa saman kanku ba lafiya, sai miyaku da ƙujewa da manyan gyambuna, ba a tsabtacce su ba ko a daure ko shafa musu magani.
From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrefying sores: they have not been closed, nor bound up, nor mollified with oil.
7 Ƙasarku ta zama kufai, an ƙone biranenku da wuta; baƙi suna ƙwace gonakinku a idanunku, ta zama kango kamar sa’ad da baƙi suka rushe ta.
Your country is desolate, your cities are burnt with fire; your soil—in your presence, strangers devour it, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
8 An bar diyar Sihiyona kamar rumfar mai ƙumu a gonar inabi, kamar bukka a gonar kabewa, kamar birnin da aka kewaye da yaƙi.
And left is the daughter of Zion as a hut in a vineyard, as a lodge in a cucumber field, as a besieged city.
9 Da ba a ce Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya bar mana raguwar masu rai ba, da mun zama kamar Sodom, da mun zama kamar Gomorra.
Unless the Lord of hosts had left unto us a remnant ever so small, like Sodom should we have been, unto Gomorrah should we have been compared.
10 Ku saurari maganar Ubangiji, ku masu mulkin Sodom; ku kasa kunne ga dokar Allahnmu, ku mutanen Gomorra!
Hear the word of the Lord, ye rulers of Sodom: give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.
11 Ubangiji ya ce, “Yawan hadayunku, mene ne suke a gare ni?” Ina da isashen hadayun ƙonawa, na raguna da na kitsen dabbobi masu ƙiba; ba na jin daɗin jinin bijimai da na tumaki da kuma na awaki.
For what serveth me the multitude of your sacrifices? saith the Lord: I am sated with the burnt-offerings of rams, and the fat of fatted beasts; and the blood of bullocks, and of sheep, and of he-goats, I do not desire.
12 Sa’ad da kuka zo don ku bayyana a gabana, wa ya nemi wannan daga gare ku, da kuke kai da kawowa a filayen gidana?
When ye come to appear in my presence—who hath required this at your hand, to tread down my courts?
13 Ku daina kawo hadayu marasa amfani! Turarenku abin ƙyama ne gare ni. Ina ƙin bukukkuwanku na Sabon Wata, da na ranakun Asabbaci, da taronku na addini, ba zan iya jure wa mugun taronku ba.
Continue no more to bring an oblation of deceit; incense of abomination is it unto me: new moon and sabbath, the calling of assemblies—I cannot bear misdeed with festive gathering.
14 Bukukkuwanku na Sabon Wata da na tsarkakan ranaku na ƙi su. Sun zama mini kaya; na gaji da ɗaukansu.
Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth; they are become a burden unto me; I am weary to bear them,
15 Sa’ad da kuka ɗaga hannuwanku wajen yin addu’a, zan ɓoye fuskata daga gare ku; ko da kun miƙa addu’o’i masu yawa, ba zan kasa kunne ba. Hannuwanku sun cika da jini!
And when ye spread forth your hands, I will withdraw my eyes from you; yea, when ye make ever so many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
16 Ku yi wanka ku kuma tsabtacce kanku. Ku kawar da mugayen ayyukanku daga gabana; Ku daina aikata mugunta.
Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; put away the evil of your deeds from before my eyes; cease to do evil;
17 Ku koyi yin nagarta; ku nemi adalci. Ku ƙarfafa waɗanda aka zalunta. Ku ba wa marayu hakkinsu, ku taimaki gwauruwa.
Learn to do well; seek for justice, relieve the oppressed, do justice to the fatherless, plead for the widow.
18 Ubangiji ya ce, “Yanzu fa ku zo, bari mu dubi batun nan tare, Ko da zunubanku sun yi ja kamar garura, za su zama fari kamar ƙanƙara; ko da sun yi ja kamar mulufi, za su zama kamar ulu.
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins should be as scarlet, they shall become white as the snow; though they should be red like crimson, they shall become like wool.
19 In kuna da niyya kuna kuma yi mini biyayya, za ku ci abubuwa masu kyau daga ƙasar;
If ye be willing and obey, the best of the land shall ye eat;
20 amma in kuka yi tsayayya kuka kuma yi tayarwa, za a kashe ku da takobi.” Ni Ubangiji na faɗa.
But if ye refuse and rebel, by the sword shall ye be devoured; for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
21 Dubi yadda amintacciyar birni ta zama karuwa! Dā ta cika da yin gaskiya; dā masu adalci a can suke zama, amma yanzu sai masu kisankai kaɗai!
How is she become a harlot, the faithful town! she, that was full of justice; righteousness lodged therein; but now murderers.
22 Azurfarki ta zama jebu, an gauraye ruwan inabinki mafi kyau da ruwa.
Thy silver is become dross, thy wine is drugged with water;
23 Masu mulkinki’yan tawaye ne, abokan ɓarayi; dukansu suna ƙaunar cin hanci suna bin kyautai. Ba sa taɓa tsare marayu a ɗakin shari’a; ba sa taimakon gwauruwa.
Thy princes are rebels, and companions of thieves; every one loveth brides, and runneth after rewards; to the fatherless they will not do justice, and the cause of the widow doth not come unto them.
24 Saboda haka Ubangiji, Ubangiji Maɗaukaki, Mai Iko nan na Isra’ila, ya furta, “Kai, zan sami hutu daga maƙiyana in kuma yi ramuwa a kan abokan gābana.
Therefore saith the Lord, the Eternal of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will take satisfaction on my adversaries, and be avenged on my enemies.
25 Zan juye hannuna a kanki; zan wanke ke sarai in fitar da dukan ƙazantarki.
And I will turn my hand against thee, and purge away as with lye thy dross, and remove all thy tin:
26 Zan maido da alƙalanki kamar yadda suke a dā can, mashawartanki kamar yadda suke da fari. Bayan haka za a ce da ke Birnin Masu Adalci, Amintacciyar Birni.”
And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning; after that shalt thou be called, The city of righteousness, the town that is faithful.
27 Za a fanshi Sihiyona da adalci, masu tubanta kuma da aikin gaskiya.
Zion shall be redeemed through justice, and her converts through righteousness.
28 Amma za a karye’yan tawaye da masu zunubi, waɗanda suka rabu da Ubangiji kuma za su hallaka.
But destruction shall come over transgressors and sinners together, and those that forsake the Lord shall perish.
29 “Za ku ji kunya saboda masujadan ƙarƙashin itatuwan oak da kuka yi farin ciki; za a kunyata ku saboda lambun da kuka zaɓa.
For people shall be ashamed because of the terebinths which ye had desired, and ye shall be put to the blush because of the gardens that ye had chosen.
30 Za ku zama kamar itacen oak mai busasshen ganyaye, kamar lambu marar ruwa.
For ye shall be as a terebinth the leaves of which wither, and as a garden that hath no water.
31 Mutum mai ƙarfi zai zama kamar rama, aikinsa kuma kamar tartsatsin wuta; duka za su ƙone tare, ba kuwa wanda zai kashe wutar.”
And the mighty oppressor shall become as tow, and his workman as a spark; and they shall both burn together, with none to quench.
