< Ishacyaah 49 >
1 Gasiiradahow, bal i maqla, dadkiinna fogow, bal i dhegaysta, Rabbigu wuxuu iiga yeedhay maxalka, oo uurkii hooyaday ayuu iga soo magacaabay.
Listen to me, you coastlands! Now give my your attention, you distant peoples. Yahweh has called me from birth by name, when my mother brought me into the world.
2 Oo afkaygana wuxuu ka dhigay sidii seef af badan oo kale, oo hooska gacantiisa ayuu igu qariyey, wuxuuna iga yeelay sidii fallaadh fiiqan oo kale, oo gabooyihiisa ayuu igu xaseeyey.
He has made my mouth like a sharp sword; he hid me in the shadow of his hand; he has made me into a polished arrow; in his quiver he has hidden me.
3 Oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Israa'iilow, waxaad tahay addoonkaygii oo waan kugu ammaanmi doonaa.
He said to me, “You are my servant, Israel, through whom I show my glory.”
4 Markaasaan idhi, Wax aan waxba ahayn ayaan u hawshooday, oo xooggaygiina waxaan ku dhammeeyey baabba' iyo wax aan waxba ahayn, laakiinse gartaydu waxay la jirtaa Rabbiga oo abaalgudkayguna wuxuu la jiraa Ilaahayga.
But I replied, “Though I thought I have labored in vain, I have spent my energy for nothing, yet my justice is with Yahweh, and my reward is with my God.”
5 Oo haddaba Rabbigii uurka hooyaday iga soo sameeyey inaan isaga addoon u noqdo si aan reer Yacquub isaga ugu keeno, oo reer binu Israa'iilna ay isaga ugu soo wada ururaan, wuu ila hadlay, (waayo, anigu Rabbiga hortiisa waan ku sharaf badnahay, Ilaahayguna wuxuu ii noqday xoog iyo itaal)
Now Yahweh has spoken—he who formed me from birth to be his servant, to restore Jacob again to himself, so that Israel would be gathered to him, for I am honored in the eyes of Yahweh, and my God has become my strength—
6 Oo isagu wuxuu leeyahay, Inaad addoonkaygii ahaatid, oo aad qabiilooyinka reer Yacquub soo kicisid, iyo inaad kuwii reer binu Israa'iil ka hadhay soo celisid waa wax fudud, oo weliba quruumahaan iftiin kaaga dhigi doonaa, si ay badbaadintaydu dhulka darafkiisa u gaadho.
and he says, “It is too small a thing for you to be my servant to reestablish the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the survivors of Israel. I will make you a light to the Gentiles, that you may be my salvation to the ends of the earth.”
7 Rabbiga ah Bixiyaha reer binu Israa'iil iyo Kooda Quduuska ah wuxuu ku leeyahay kan dadku quudhsado oo quruumuhu karhaan, oo ah taliyayaal addoonkood, Boqorraa arki doona oo sarajoogsan doona, oo weliba amiirraa sujuudi doona, waana Rabbiga aaminka ah, oo ah Kan Quduuska ah ee reer binu Israa'iil, oo ku doortay aawadiis.
This is what Yahweh says, the Redeemer of Israel, their Holy One, to the one whose life is despised, hated by the nations, and a slave of rulers, “Kings will see you and arise, and princes will see you and bow down, because of Yahweh who is faithful, even the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.”
8 Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Wakhti la aqbalay ayaan kuu jawaabay, oo maalintii badbaadintana waan ku caawiyey, waanan ku ilaalin doonaa, oo axdi ahaan baan dadka kuu siin doonaa inaad dhulka hagaajisid oo aad ka yeeshid in ay dhaxlaan meelihii hantida ahaa ee baabba'ay,
This is what Yahweh says, “At a time I decide to show my favor I will answer you, and in a day of salvation I will help you; I will protect you, and give you as a covenant for the people, to rebuild the land, to reassign the desolate inheritance.
9 iyo inaad kuwa xidhan ku tidhaahdid, Soo baxa, oo kuwa gudcurka ku jirana aad ku tidhaahdid, Ismuujiya. Waxay daaqi doonaan jidadka, oo daaqsintoodana waxay ka heli doonaan meelaha sare oo dhan.
You will say to the prisoners, 'Come out;' to those in dark dungeons, 'Show yourselves.' They will graze along the roads, and on all the bare slopes will be their pasture.
10 Ma ay gaajoon doonaan, mana ay harraadi doonaan, oo kulaylka iyo qorraxdu kuma ay dhici doonaan, waayo, ka iyaga u naxariista ayaa hor kici doona, oo wuxuu ku hoggaamin doonaa ilo biya ah agtood.
They will not be hungry or thirsty; nor will the heat or sun beat on them, for he who has mercy on them will lead them; he will guide them to springs of water.
11 Oo buurahayga oo dhan waxaan ka dhigi doonaa waddo, oo jidadkayga weynna kor baa loo wada qaadi doonaa.
Then I will make all my mountains into a road, and make my highways level.”
12 Bal eega, kuwanu waxay ka iman doonaan meel fog, oo bal ogaada, kuwanu waxay ka iman doonaan xagga woqooyi iyo xagga galbeed, oo kuwanuna waxay ka iman doonaan dalka reer Siiniim.
Look, these will come from far away, some from the north and the west; and others from the land of Sinim.
13 Samooyinkow, heesa, oo dhulkow, faraxsanow, buurahow, hees ku dhufta, waayo, Rabbigu dadkiisii wuu qalbi qaboojiyey, oo kuwiisa dhibaataysanna wuu u naxariisan doonaa.
Sing, heavens, and be joyful, earth; break into singing, you mountains! For Yahweh comforts his people, and will have compassion on his afflicted.
14 Laakiinse Siyoon waxay tidhi, Rabbigu waa iga tegey, oo Sayidku waa i illoobay.
But Zion said, “Yahweh has forsaken me, and the Lord has forgotten me.”
15 Miyaa naagu ilmeheeda nuuga illoobi kartaa inayan wiilkii uurkeeda ka soo go'ay u naxariisan? Mindhaa kuwaasu way illoobi karaan, aniguse innaba ku illoobi maayo.
“Can a woman forget her baby, nursing at her breast, so she does not have compassion on the son she has borne? Yes, they may forget, but I will not forget you.
16 Bal eeg, waxaan kugu calaamadeeyey calaacalaha gacmahayga, oo derbiyadaaduna had iyo goorba way i hor yaalliin.
Look, I have inscribed your name on my palms; your walls are continually before me.
17 Carruurtaadu way soo degdegayaan, oo kuwii ku dumiyey iyo kuwii cidlada kaa dhigayba way kaa bixi doonaan.
Your children are hurrying back, while those who destroyed you are going away.
18 Bal indhahaaga kor u qaad oo hareerahaaga fiiri. Kuwaas oo dhammu way isa soo wada urursanayaan oo adigay kuu imanayaan. Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Noloshaydaan ku dhaartay, hubaal kuwaas oo dhan waxaad u xidhan doontaa sida sharraxaad oo kale, oo waxaad u huwan doontaa sida aroosaddu wax u huwato oo kale.
Look around and see, they are all gathering and coming to you. As surely as I live—this is Yahweh's declaration—you will surely wear them like jewelry, and you will put them on like a bride.
19 Waayo, baabba'aagii iyo meelahaagii cidloobay iyo dalkaagii burburayba haatan cidhiidhi bay ku noqon doonaan kuwa ku degaya, oo kuwii ku liqayna way kaa fogaan doonaan.
Though you were a waste and desolate, a land that was in ruins, now you will be too small for the inhabitants, and those who devoured you will be far away.
20 Carruurta aad dhashay markaad gablantay dabadeed ayaa kugu odhan doonta adigoo maqlaya, Meeshu aad bay noogu cidhiidhisan tahay, haddaba bal meel aannu degno noo bannee.
The children born during the time of your bereavement will say in your hearing, 'The place is too cramped for us, make room for us, so we may live here.'
21 Markaasaad qalbigaaga iska odhan doontaa, Bal yaa kuwan ii dhalay? Maxaa yeelay, carruurtaydii waan ka gablamay, oo waxaan ahay mid cidlowday, oo la masaafuriyey, oo wareegta. Oo bal yaase kuwan ii koriyey? Waayo, anoo keligay ah ayaa layga tegey, ee haddaba kuwanu xaggee bay joogeen?
Then you will ask yourself, 'Who has borne these children for me? I was bereaved and barren, exiled and divorced. Who has raised these children? Look, I was left all alone; where did these come from?'”
22 Sayidka Rabbiga ahu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eeg, quruumahaan u gacan haadin doonaa, oo calankayga dadyowgaan u taagi doonaa, oo wiilashaada laabtooday ku keeni doonaan, oo gabdhahaagana garbahooday ku soo qaadi doonaan.
This is what the Lord Yahweh says, “Look, I will raise my hand to the nations; I will raise my signal flag to the peoples. They will bring your sons in their arms and carry your daughters on their shoulders.
23 Oo boqorro waxay kuu noqon doonaan aabbayaal carruurtaada xannaaneeya, oo boqoradahoodu waxay kuu noqon doonaan hooyooyin carruurtaada nuujiya. Oo intay jaahooda dhulka saaraan ayay kuu sujuudi doonaan, oo waxay leefleefi doonaan ciidda cagahaaga. Markaasaad ogaan doontaa inaan anigu Rabbiga ahay, oo kuwii i sugaa marnaba ma ay ceeboobi doonaan.
Kings will be your foster fathers, and their queens your nursemaids; they will bow down to you with their faces to the earth and lick the dust of your feet; and you will know that I am Yahweh; those who wait for me will not be put to shame.”
24 Mid xoog badanu wuxuu qabsado miyaa laga qaadaa? Miyaase la samatabbixiyaa maxaabbiistii kan xaqa ah?
Can the spoils be taken from the warrior, or captives be rescued from the fierce?
25 Laakiinse Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Xataa kii xoog badan maxaabbiistiisa waa laga qaadi doonaa, oo kan laga cabsado wuxuu qabsadona waa laga samatabbixin doonaa, waayo, kii kula dirira waan la diriri doonaa, oo carruurtaadana waan badbaadin doonaa.
But this is what Yahweh says, “Yes, the captives will be taken away from the warrior, and spoils will be rescued; for I will oppose your adversary and save your children.
26 Oo kuwii ku dulmana waxaan ku quudin doonaa hilibka jidhkooda, oo dhiiggoodana waxay ugu sakhraami doonaan sida khamri macaan, oo binu-aadmiga oo dhammuna waxay wada ogaan doonaan inaan anigoo Rabbiga ahu ahay Badbaadiyahaaga, iyo Bixiyahaaga, iyo Kan xoogga badan ee reer Yacquub.
I will feed your oppressors with their own flesh; and they will get drunk on their own blood, as if it were wine. Then all mankind will know that I, Yahweh, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.”
