Isaiah 22
1 Ọ̀rọ̀-ìmọ̀ tí ó jẹ mọ́ àfonífojì ìran. Kí ni ó ń dààmú yín báyìí, tí gbogbo yín fi gun orí òrùlé lọ?
The doom of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the roofs?
2 Ìwọ ìlú tí ó kún fún rúkèrúdò, ìwọ ìlú àìtòrò òun rògbòdìyàn a kò fi idà pa àwọn òkú rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò kú ní ojú ogun.
O noiseful, tumultuous city, joyous town? thy slain ones are not slain with the sword, and not those that die in battle.
3 Gbogbo àwọn olórí i yín ti jùmọ̀ sálọ; a ti kó wọn nígbèkùn láìlo ọfà. Ẹ̀yin tí a mú ni a ti kó lẹ́rú papọ̀, lẹ́yìn tí ẹ ti sá nígbà tí ọ̀tá ṣì wà lọ́nà jíjìn réré.
All thy rulers are fled together, they are made prisoners by the bowmen: all that are found in thee are made prisoners together, who have run away from afar.
4 Nítorí náà ni mo wí pé, “Yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi: jẹ́ kí n sọkún kíkorò. Má ṣe gbìyànjú àti tù mí nínú nítorí ìparun àwọn ènìyàn mi.”
Therefore said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly; be not urgent to comfort me, because of the wasting of the daughter of my people.
5 Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ní ọjọ́ kan tí rúkèrúdò àti rògbòdìyàn àti ẹ̀rùjẹ̀jẹ̀ ní àfonífojì ìmọ̀, ọjọ́ tí a ń wó ògiri lulẹ̀ àti sísun ẹkún lọ sí àwọn orí òkè.
For a day of confusion, and of treading down, and of perplexity hath the Lord Eternal of hosts in the valley of vision; walls are broken, and crying is heard against the mountain.
6 Elamu mú apó-ọfà lọ́wọ́, pẹ̀lú àwọn agun-kẹ̀kẹ́-ogun àti àwọn ẹṣin, Kiri yọ àpáta rẹ̀ síta.
And 'Elam beareth the quiver, [cometh] with men in chariots and horsemen, and Kir uncovereth the shield.
7 Àyànfẹ́ àfonífojì rẹ kún fún kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun, àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin ni a gbá jọ sí ẹnu-bodè ìlú.
And it is so, that thy choicest valleys are full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array against the gate.
8 Gbogbo ààbò Juda ni a ti ká kúrò. Ìwọ sì gbójú sókè ní ọjọ́ náà sí àwọn ohun ìjà ní ààfin ti inú aginjù.
And he laid open the covering of Judah; and thou didst look on that day toward the armor of the house of the forest.
9 Ìwọ rí i pé ìlú u Dafidi ní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ààyè níbi ààbò rẹ̀, ìwọ ti tọ́jú omi sínú adágún ti ìsàlẹ̀.
And the breaches of the city of David have ye seen, that they are many: and ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
10 Ìwọ ka àwọn ilé tí ó wà ní Jerusalẹmu ó sì wó ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ilé lulẹ̀ láti fún ògiri lágbára.
And the houses of Jerusalem have ye numbered, and ye have pulled down the houses to fortify the wall.
11 Ìwọ mọ agbemi sí àárín ògiri méjì fún omi inú adágún àtijọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò wo ẹni tí ó ṣe é tẹ́lẹ̀ tàbí kí o kọbi ara sí ẹni tí ó gbèrò rẹ̀ ní ìgbà pípẹ́ sẹ́yìn.
And a tank have ye made between the two walls for the water of the old pool; but ye have not looked at the Maker thereof, him that fashioned it in distant times have ye not regarded.
12 Olúwa, àní Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, pè ọ́ ní ọjọ́ náà láti sọkún kí o sì pohùnréré, kí o tu irun rẹ dànù kí o sì da aṣọ ọ̀fọ̀ bora.
And the Lord Eternal of hosts called on that day for weeping, and for mourning, and for baldness, and for girding with sackcloth.
13 Ṣùgbọ́n wò ó, ayọ̀ àti ayẹyẹ wà; màlúù pípa àti àgùntàn pípa, ẹran jíjẹ àti ọtí wáìnì mímu! Ẹ̀yin wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí a jẹ kí a mu, nítorí pé lọ́la àwa ó kú!”
And behold [there are] gladness and joy, slaying of oxen, and killing of sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: “Let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we must die.”
14 Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti sọ èyí di mí mọ̀ létí ì mi: “Títí di ọjọ́ ikú yín a kò ní ṣe ètùtù fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yìí,” ni Olúwa wí, àní Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun.
And it was revealed in my ears by the Lord of hosts: Surely this iniquity shall not be forgiven unto you until ye die, said the Lord the Eternal of hosts.
15 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa, àní Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, “Lọ, sọ fún ìríjú yìí pé, fún Ṣebna, ẹni tí ààfin wà ní ìkáwọ́ rẹ̀.
Thus hath said the Lord, Go, get thee unto this treasurer, even unto Shebna, who is [superintendent] over the house;
16 Kí ni ohun tí ò ń ṣe níhìn-ín yìí àti pé ta ni ó sì fún ọ ní àṣẹ láti gbẹ́ ibojì kan fún ara rẹ níhìn-ín yìí, tí ó gbẹ́ ibojì ní ibi gíga tí ó sì gbẹ́ ibi ìsinmi rẹ nínú àpáta?
What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewn out for thyself here a sepulchre, [the man] that hath hewn out on high his sepulchre, that holloweth out in the rock a habitation for himself?
17 “Kíyèsára, Olúwa fẹ́ gbá ọ mú gírígírí kí ó sì jù ọ́ nù, ìwọ ọkùnrin alágbára.
Behold, the Lord will thrust thee about with a mighty throw, O man! and will lay fast hold of thee;
18 Òun yóò ká ọ rúgúdù bí i òkìtì yóò sì sọ ọ́ sí orílẹ̀-èdè ńlá kan. Níbẹ̀ ni ìwọ yóò sì kú sí àti níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ni àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun àràmọ̀ǹdà rẹ yóò wà— ìwọ di ìtìjú sí ilé ọ̀gá rẹ!
He will roll thee up as a bundle, and [toss thee] like a ball into a country of ample space: there shalt thou die, and there shall [remain] the chariots of thy glory, thou disgrace of the house of thy lord.
19 Èmi yóò yọ ọ́ kúrò ní ipò rẹ, a ó sì lé ọ kúrò ní ipò rẹ.
And I will cast thee out from thy station, and from thy post shall he pull thee down.
20 “Ní ọjọ́ náà. Èmi yóò ké sí ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ mi, Eliakimu ọmọ Hilkiah.
And it shall come to pass on that day, that I will call my servant, for Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu.
21 Èmi yóò fi aṣọ rẹ wọ̀ ọ́, n ó sì so ẹ̀wọ̀n rẹ mọ́ ọn ní ọrùn, èmi ó sì gbé àṣẹ rẹ lé e lọ́wọ́. Òun yó sì jẹ́ baba fún gbogbo olùgbé e Jerusalẹmu àti fún ilé e Juda.
And I will clothe him with thy robe, and thy girdle will I fasten around him, and thy government will I place into his hand: and he shall be as a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
22 Èmi yóò sì fi kọ́kọ́rọ́ ilé e Dafidi lé e ní èjìká; ohunkóhun tí ó bá ṣí, ẹnikẹ́ni kì yóò lè ti, ohunkóhun tí ó bá sì tì, ẹnikẹ́ni kì yóò le è ṣí.
And I will lay the key of the house of David upon his shoulder; so that he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
23 Èmi yóò sì kàn mọ́lẹ̀ bí èèkàn tí ó dúró gírígírí ní ààyè e rẹ̀; òun yóò sì jẹ́ ibùjókòó ọlá fún ilé baba rẹ̀.
And I will fasten him as a tent-nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a chair of honor to his father's house.
24 Gbogbo ògo ìdílé rẹ̀ ni wọn yóò sì fi kọ ní ọrùn: ìran rẹ̀ àti àrọ́mọdọ́mọ rẹ̀, gbogbo ohun èlò ife, títí dé orí ago ọtí.
And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the shoots and offshoots, all the small vessels, from the vessels of basins, even to all the vessels of flagons.
25 “Ní ọjọ́ náà,” ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, “Èèkàn tí a kàn mọ́lẹ̀ gírígírí ní ààyè e rẹ̀ yóò yẹrí, yóò dẹ̀gbẹ́ yóò sì fẹ̀gbẹ́ lélẹ̀ àti ẹrù tí ó létéńté lórí i rẹ̀ ni a ó gé lulẹ̀.” Olúwa ni ó ti sọ ọ́.
On that day, saith the Lord of hosts, shall be removed the nail that is fastened in the sure place, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that is upon it shall be cut off; for the Lord hath spoken it.
