Ishacyaah 61
1 Ruuxii Sayidka Rabbiga ah ayaa i dul jooga, waayo, wuxuu Rabbigu ii subkay inaan war wanaagsan masaakiinta ku wacdiyo, wuxuuna ii soo diray inaan kuwa qalbiga jaban bogsiiyo, iyo inaan maxaabiista xornimada ogeysiiyo, kuwa xidhanna furriinnimada,
The Spirit of Yahweh [our] Lord is on me; he has appointed [MTY] me to bring good news to those who are oppressed, to comfort those who are discouraged, to free [all] those who are [as though they are chained/tied] [DOU] [by the wrong things that they continually do].
2 iyo inaan dadka ogeysiiyo sannadda qaabbilaadda ah ee Rabbiga iyo maalintii aarsashada Ilaahayaga, iyo inaan kuwa baroorta oo dhan u qalbi qaboojiyo,
He has sent me to tell those who mourn [about the members of their families who died] (OR, [who are still in Babylonia)] that now is the time when Yahweh will act kindly [toward his people]; now is the time when our God will (get revenge on/punish) [their enemies].
3 iyo inaan kuwa Siyoon ku baroorta meeshii dambaska qurux madaxooda ka saaro, oo meeshii baroorashadana aan saliiddii farxadda ka siiyo, oo meeshii qalbijabna aan dharkii ammaanta ka siiyo, in iyaga lagu magacaabo geedihii xaqnimada iyo beeriddii Rabbiga, si uu isagu u ammaanmo.
To [all] those in Jerusalem who mourn, he will give flower necklaces [to wear]; instead of ashes [that they put on their heads to show that they are sad]; he will cause them to rejoice [MTY] instead of being sad; he will enable them to be [MET] happy instead of being discouraged. They will be called “people who continually do what is right, people who are [like tall/strong] oak [trees] that Yahweh has planted” to show others that he is very great.
4 Iyagu waxay dhisi doonaan burburkii hore, oo waxay kor u taagi doonaan wixii waa hore dumay, oo waxay cusboonayn doonaan magaalooyinkii burburay iyo wixii qarniyo badan baabba' ahaan jiray.
[Those who return from Babylon] will rebuild the cities that [the soldiers from Babylon] tore down. [Even though] those cities have been destroyed and abandoned for many years, they will be restored/rebuilt.
5 Oo shisheeyayaalna halkaasay joogi doonaan adhigiinnay daajin doonaan, oo kuwa qariibka ahuna waxay idiin noqon doonaan beerfalayaal iyo kuwa beercanabka ka shaqeeya.
Foreigners will be the ones who will take care of your flocks [of sheep and goats], and plow your fields and take care of your grapevines.
6 Laakiinse idinka waxaa laydinku magacaabi doonaa wadaaddadii Rabbiga, oo dadku waxay idiinku yeedhi doonaan midiidinnadii Ilaahayaga. Waxaad cuni doontaan maalka quruumaha, oo sharaftooda ayaad ku faani doontaan.
But you [are the ones who] will be like the priests to serve Yahweh, to work for God. You will enjoy valuable goods [that are brought] from other nations, and you will be happy that those things have become yours.
7 Meeshii ceebtiinna sharaf labanlaab ah baad ka heli doontaan, oo meeshii qasmiddana waxay ku rayrayn doonaan qaybtooda, sidaas daraaddeed iyagu dalkooda qayb labanlaab ah bay ku hantiyi doonaan, oo waxaa iyaga u ahaan doonta farxad weligeed ah.
Previously you were shamed and disgraced, but now you will have great blessings; previously [your enemies] humbled you, but now you will have many good things; you will be happy because of being in your land again, and you will rejoice forever.
8 Waayo, anigoo Rabbiga ahu caddaalad baan jeclahay, waxdhicidda iyo xumaantase waan nebcahay. Si daacad ah ayaan iyaga ugu abaalgudi doonaa, oo waxaan la dhigan doonaa axdi weligiis ah.
“I, Yahweh, am very pleased with those/judges who decide matters fairly; I hate [those who illegally] take things from other people. I will surely repay my people (for/because of) all that they have suffered [in the past]. And I will make an everlasting agreement with them.
9 Oo farcankoodana quruumahaa lagu dhex aqoon doonaa, oo carruurtoodana dadyowga dhexdoodaa lagu aqoon doonaa, oo wax alla wixii iyaga arka oo dhammuba way aqoonsan doonaan inay iyagu yihiin farcankii Rabbigu barakeeyey.
Their descendants will be honored by people of other nations [DOU]. Everyone who sees them will know that they are a nation that [I], Yahweh, have blessed.”
10 Si weyn baan Rabbiga ugu rayrayn doonaa, oo naftayduna Ilaahayga bay ku farxi doontaa, waayo, wuxuu ii xidhay dharkii badbaadada, oo wuxuu i huwiyey khamiiskii xaqnimada, sida aroos dharkiisa quruxdasan isku sharraxa iyo sida aroosad jowharadaheeda isku soo sharraxda.
I greatly rejoice because of what Yahweh [has done]! I am happy, because he has saved me and declared that I am righteous; [those blessings are like] [MET] a robe that he has put on me. I am [as happy as] [SIM] a bridegroom in his wedding suit, or a bride wearing jewels.
11 Waayo, sida dhulku biqilkiisa u soo bixiyo, iyo sida beertu wixii lagu dhex abuuray u soo bixiso, ayaa Sayidka Rabbiga ahu ka dhigi doonaa in xaqnimo iyo ammaanu ay quruumaha oo dhan ka soo hor baxaan.
Just as [seeds sown in] a garden sprout from the soil and grow [DOU], Yahweh [our] God will cause [people of] all nations to act righteously, with the result that they will praise him for doing that.
