< Isaiah 27 >
1 Ní ọjọ́ náà, Olúwa yóò fi idà rẹ̀ jẹ ni ní yà idà rẹ̀ a mú bí iná tí ó tóbi tí ó sì lágbára Lefitani ejò tí ń yọ̀ tẹ̀ẹ̀rẹ̀ n nì, Lefitani ejò tí ń lọ́ bìrìkìtì; Òun yóò sì pa ẹ̀mí búburú inú Òkun náà.
In that day Jehovah with his hard and great and strong sword will punish leviathan the swift serpent, and leviathan the crooked serpent, and he will kill the monster that is in the sea.
2 Ní ọjọ́ náà, “Kọrin nípa ọgbà àjàrà eléso kan.
In that day is a vineyard of wine. Sing ye to it.
3 Èmi Olúwa ń bojútó o, Èmi ó bomirin ín láti ìgbàdégbà. Èmi ó ṣọ́ ọ tọ̀sán tòru kí ẹnikẹ́ni má ba à pa á lára.
I Jehovah am its keeper, I will water it every moment. Lest any hurt it, I will guard it night and day.
4 Inú kò bí mi. Bí ẹ̀gún àti ẹ̀wọ̀n bá dojú ìjà kọ mí! Èmi yóò dìde sí wọn ní ogun, Èmi yóò sì dáná sun gbogbo wọn.
Wrath is not in me. Would that the briers and thorns were against me in battle! I would march upon them. I would burn them together.
5 Bí bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, jẹ́ kí wọn wá sọ́dọ̀ mi fún ààbò; jẹ́ kí wọ́n wá àlàáfíà pẹ̀lú mi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, jẹ́ kí wọn wá àlàáfíà pẹ̀lú mi.”
Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me. Yea, let him make peace with me.
6 Ní ọjọ́ iwájú Jakọbu yóò ta gbòǹgbò, Israẹli yóò tanná yóò sì rudi èso rẹ̀ yóò sì kún gbogbo ayé.
In days to come Jacob shall take root; Israel shall blossom and bud. And they shall fill the face of the world with fruit.
7 Ǹjẹ́ Olúwa ti lù ú gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti lu àwọn tí ó lù ú bolẹ̀? Ǹjẹ́ a ti pa á gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti pa àwọn tí ó pa á?
Has he smitten them as he smote those who smote them? Or are they slain according to the slaughter of those who were slain by them?
8 Nípa ogun jíjà àti ìjìyà ti o le ni ó fi dojúkọ ọ́ pẹ̀lú ìjì gbígbóná ni ó lé e jáde, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọjọ́ tí afẹ́fẹ́ ìlà-oòrùn fẹ́.
In measure, in sending it forth, thou contend with it. He has removed with his rough blast in the day of the east wind.
9 Nítorí èyí báyìí ni ètùtù yóò ṣe wà fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Jakọbu, èyí ni yóò sì jẹ́ èso kíkún ti ìmúkúrò ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ. Nígbà tí ó bá mú kí àwọn òkúta pẹpẹ dàbí òkúta ẹfun tí a fọ́ sí wẹ́wẹ́, kì yóò sí ère Aṣerah tàbí pẹpẹ tùràrí tí yóò wà ní ìdúró.
Therefore by this the iniquity of Jacob shall be forgiven. And this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: that he makes all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten apart, so that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more.
10 Ìlú olódi náà ti dahoro, ibùdó ìkọ̀sílẹ̀, tí a kọ̀ tì gẹ́gẹ́ bí aginjù; níbẹ̀ ni àwọn ọmọ màlúù ti ń jẹ oko níbẹ̀ ni wọn ń sùn sílẹ̀; wọn sì jẹ gbogbo ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ tán.
For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken like the wilderness. There the calf shall feed, and there he shall lie down, and consume the branches of it.
11 Nígbà tí àwọn ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ bá rọ, a ó ya wọn dànù àwọn obìnrin dé, wọ́n sì fi wọ́n dáná nítorí aláìlóye ènìyàn ni wọn jẹ́, nítorí náà ni ẹni tí ó dá wọn kì yóò ṣàánú fún wọn; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹni tí ó mọ wọn kì yóò sì fi ojúrere wò wọ́n.
When the boughs of it are withered, they shall be broken off. The women shall come, and set them on fire, for it is a people of no understanding. Therefore he who made them will not have compassion upon them, and he who formed them will show them no favor.
12 Ní ọjọ́ náà Olúwa yóò sì kó oore láti ìṣàn omi odo Eufurate wá títí dé Wadi ti Ejibiti, àti ìwọ, ìwọ ọmọ Israẹli, ni a ó kójọ ní ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah will beat off his fruit, from the flood of the River to the brook of Egypt. And ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye sons of Israel.
13 Àti ní ọjọ́ náà, a ó fun fèrè ńlá kan. Gbogbo àwọn tí ń ṣègbé lọ ní Asiria àti àwọn tí ń ṣe àtìpó ní Ejibiti yóò wá sin Olúwa ní òkè mímọ́ ní Jerusalẹmu.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great trumpet shall be blown. And they shall come who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and those who were outcasts in the land of Egypt. And they shall worship Jehovah in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
