Ishacyaah 40
1 Ilaahiinnu wuxuu leeyahay, Dadkayga qalbi qaboojiya oo sii qalbi qaboojiya!
Comfort ye—comfort ye my people, —Saith your God.
2 Yeruusaalem qalbigeeda la hadla, oo iyada u qayliya oo u sheega in dagaalkeedu dhammaaday, iyo in xumaanteeda laga saamaxay, iyo inay dembiyadeedii oo dhan aawadood laba jibbaar gacantii Rabbiga uga heshay.
Speak ye unto the heart of Jerusalem, And cry unto her, —That accomplished is her warfare, That accepted is her punishment, —That she hath received, at the hand of Yahweh, According to the full measure of all her sins.
3 Waxaa yeedhaya mid qaylinaya codkiis oo leh, Jidkii Rabbiga cidlada dhexdiisa ka hagaajiya, oo lamadegaanka dhexdiisa jid weyn Ilaahayaga aawadiis uga toosiya.
A voice of one crying!—In the desert, prepare ye the way of Yahweh, —Make smooth in the waste plain a highway for our God:
4 Dooxo walba kor baa loo qaadi doonaa, oo qar iyo buur walbana waa la gaabin doonaa, waxa qalloocanna waa la toosin doonaa, oo meelaha xunxunna waxaa laga dhigi doonaa bannaan siman,
Let, every valley, be exalted, And every mountain and hill, be made low, —And, the steep ground become, level, And, the chain of hills—a plain:
5 oo waxaa la muujin doonaa ammaanta Rabbiga, uunka oo dhammuna way wada arki doonaan, waayo, afkii Rabbiga ayaa saas ku hadlay.
Then shall be revealed the glory of Yahweh, —And all flesh shall see it together, For, the mouth of Yahweh, hath spoken!
6 Waxaa yeedhaya codka kan leh, Qayli. Oo isna wuxuu yidhi, Maxaan ku qayliyaa? Wax kasta oo jiidh lahu waa caws, oo wanaagsanaantiisa oo dhammuna waa sida ubaxa duurka oo kale.
A voice saying Cry! And one said—What should I cry? All flesh, is grass, And, all the grace thereof, like the flower of the field:
7 Cawsku wuu engegaa, ubaxuna wuu dhacaa, maxaa yeelay, neefta Rabbigu way afuuftaa, sida xaqiiqada ah dadku waa caws oo kale.
The grass hath withered The flower hath faded, Because, the breath of Yahweh, hath blown upon it! Surely the people is grass!
8 Cawsku wuu engegaa, ubaxuna wuu dhacaa, laakiinse erayga Ilaaheennu weligiisba wuu waari doonaa.
The grass, hath withered, The flower, hath faded, —But the word of our God, shall stand unto times age-abiding!
9 Kaaga warka wanaagsan Siyoon u keenayow, buurta dheer kor u sii fuul, kaaga warka wanaagsan Yeruusaalem keenayow, codkaaga kor xoog ugu qaad, kor u sii qaad, oo innaba ha cabsan. Oo magaalooyinka dalka Yahuudah waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, War bal Ilaahiinna eega!
To a high mountain, get ye up, O herald—band of Zion, Lift high with strength your voice, O herald—band of Jerusalem, —Lift it high, do not fear, Say to the cities of Judah—Lo! your God!
10 Bal eega, Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu la iman doonaa xoog weyn, oo gacantiisaa wax isaga ugu talin doonta! Bal eega, abaalgudkiisii wuu wadaa oo abaalmarintiisuna way ka soo horraysaa.
Lo! My Lord, Yahweh, as a mighty one, doth come, And, his own arm, is about to rule for him, —Lo! his reward, is with him, And, his recompense, before him;
11 Isagu adhigiisuu u daajin doonaa sida adhijir oo kale, naylahana gacantiisuu ku ururin doonaa, oo wuxuu ku qaadi doonaa laabtiisa, oo kuwa la nuugana qunyar buu u hor kici doonaa.
Like a shepherd, his flock, will he tend, In his own arm, will he take up the lambs, And in his own bosom, will he carry [them], —Them which are with young, will he lead to a place of rest.
12 Bal yaa biyaha sacabkiisa godan ku qiyaasay, oo samada taako ku qiyaasay, oo ciidda dhulka miisaan ku qiyaasay, oo buuraha miisaammo saaray, oo kurahana kafado ku miisaamay?
Who hath measured, with the hollow of his hand, the waters. Or the heavens with a span, hath meted out, Or hath comprehended, in a measure, the dust of the earth, Or weighed, in scales, the mountains, Or the hills, in a balance?
13 Bal yaa Ruuxa Rabbiga la taliyey? Bal yaase intuu lataliyihiisii noqday isaga wax baray?
Who hath proved the spirit of Yahweh? Or being his counsellor hath been giving him knowledge?
14 Bal yuu isagu la tashaday? Oo bal yaa tacliimiyey, oo dhabbaha caddaaladda baray? Oo yaa aqoon baray, oo jidka waxgarashada tusay?
With whom hath he taken counsel—And he hath given him intelligence, And instructed him in the path of justice, —And taught him knowledge, And in the way of intelligence, hath been giving him understanding?
15 Bal eega, quruumuhu waxay isaga la yihiin sida dhibic biyeed oo baaldi ku jirta oo kale, oo wuxuu ku xisaabaa sida boodh kafado dul saaran oo kale, oo bal eega, gasiiradahana wuxuu kor ugu qaadaa sida habaas fudud oo kale.
Lo! nations, Are us a drop on a bucket, And as fine dust on a balance, are accounted, —Lo! islands, like an atom, can he hoist;
16 Oo Lubnaan in la gubo kuma filla, oo xayawaankeedana qurbaan la gubo uguma filla.
And, Lebanon, is not sufficient to burn, —Nor, the beasts thereof sufficient for an ascending-sacrifice!
17 Quruumaha oo dhammu waxay hortiisa ku yihiin sida wax aan jirin oo kale, oo waxay isaga la xisaabsan yihiin wax ka sii yar baabba' iyo waxaan waxba ahayn.
All nations, are as nothing before him, —A thing of nought or a waste, are they accounted unto him?
18 Haddaba bal yaad Ilaah u ekaysiinaysaan? Amase masaalkee baad isaga kala mid dhigaysaan?
Unto whom then can ye liken GOD? Or, what likeness, can ye compare unto him?
19 Ninkii saanac ahu sanam xardhan buu shubaa, oo dahabtumuhuna dahab buu ku dahaadhaa, oo wuxuu u tumaa silsilado lacag ah.
The image, hath been cast by an artificer, And a goldsmith, with gold, overlayeth it, —And, chains of silver, he worketh.
20 Kii miskiin ah oo aan qurbaan awoodi karinuse wuxuu doortaa geed aan bololi karin, oo wuxuu doondoontaa nin saanac ah oo hagaajiya sanam xardhan oo aan dhaqaaqi karin.
The needy offerer, of a tree that will not rot, maketh choice, —A skilled artificer, seeketh he out for himself to construct an image that shall not totter,
21 Miyeydaan ogayn? Miyeydaan maqlin? Miyaan bilowgii laydiin sheegin? Oo miyeydaan garan tan iyo aasaaskii dhulka?
Have ye never taken note? Have ye never heard? Hath it not from the beginning, been told you? Have ye not been led to discern, from the foundations of the earth?
22 Waa isaga kan wareegga dhulka dul fadhiya, oo dadka kor degganuna waa sida kabajaan oo kale, oo waa isaga kan samooyinka sida daah u kala fidiya, oo wuxuu u kala bixiyaa sida teendho lagu hoydo oo kale.
It is he who sitteth upon the circle of the earth, While the inhabitants thereof are, as grass-hoppers, —Who stretcheth forth, as a curtain, the heavens, And spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in;
23 Isagu amiirrada wuxuu ka dhigaa sida wax aan jirin oo kale, oo xaakinnada dhulkana wuxuu ka dhigaa sida wax aan waxba ahayn oo kale.
Who delivereth dignitaries to nothingness, —Judges of earth, like a desolation, hath he made:
24 Hubaal iyaga lama beerin, lamana abuurin, jirriddooduna dhulka xidid kuma yeelan, weliba wuu afuufaa, oo iyana way engegaan, oo dabaysha cirwareenta ah ayaa iyaga sida xaab oo kale u qaada.
Scarcely have they been planted, Scarcely have they been sown, Scarcely hath their stock, begun to take root in the earth, When he hath just blown upon them and they have withered, And, a whirlwind, as though they had been chaff, carrieth them away.
25 Haddaba kan Quduuska ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal yaad ii ekaysiinaysaan si aan ula mid noqdo?
Unto whom then, can ye liken me, or can I be equal? Saith the Holy One.
26 Bal indhihiinna kor u qaada oo eega. Yaa waxyaalahaas uumay? Waa kan ciidankooda tirada ku soo bixiya, oo kulligoodba magacyo ugu yeedha. Itaalkiisu wuu weyn yahay oo isagu wuu xoog badan yahay, oo sidaas daraaddeed midkoodna ma dhinna.
Lift on high your eyes—and see who hath created these, That bringeth forth, by number, their host, —To all of them by name, doth call, Because of the abundance of vigour and alertness of strength, not one, is missing!
27 Reer Yacquubow, bal maxaad u leedahay, Reer binu Israa'iilow, bal maxaad ugu hadlaysaa, Jidkaygu Rabbiga wuu ka qarsoon yahay, oo Ilaahayna gartayda dan kama galo?
Wherefore, shouldest thou say, O Jacob, or speak, O Israel, —Hidden is my path from Yahweh, And from my God, my vindication, will pass?
28 War miyaadan ogayn? Oo miyaadan maqlin in Ilaaha daa'imka ah oo ah Rabbiga ah Uumaha dhulka darafyadiisa uusan itaal darnaan ama uusan daalin? Waxgarashadiisana lama baadhi karo.
Hast thou not known, Hast thou not heard, That The God of age-past time—Yahweh The Creator of the ends of the earth Fainteth not neither groweth weary—There is no searching of his understanding:
29 Isagu kuwa itaalka daran xoog buu siiyaa, oo kuwa aan tabarta lahaynna tabar buu u kordhiyaa.
Giving to him that fainteth, strength, And to him that hath no vigour, he causeth, power to abound?
30 Xataa dhallinyaradu way itaal darnaan doonaan, oo daali doonaan, oo barbaarraduna aad bay u dhici doonaan.
Youths both faint and grow weary, And, young warriors—they fall, they fall;
31 Laakiinse kuwa Rabbiga isku halleeyaa xoog cusub bay heli doonaan. Way ordi doonaan, mana ay daali doonaan, oo way socon doonaan, mana ay itaal darnaan doonaan.
But, they who wait for Yahweh, shall renew their strength, They shall mount on strong pinion like eagles, —They shall run and not grow weary, They shall walk and not faint.
