< 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, the Lord will visit, with his harsh and great and strong sword, against Leviathan, the barred serpent, and against Leviathan, the twisted serpent, and he will slay the whale that is in the sea.
2 Ní ọjọ́ náà, “Kọrin nípa ọgbà àjàrà eléso kan.
In that day, the vineyard of pure wine will sing to them.
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 am the Lord, who watches over it. I will suddenly give drink to it. I will watch over it, night and day, lest perhaps someone visit against it.
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.
Indignation is not mine. Who will be a thorn and a brier to me in battle? I will advance against them. I set them on fire 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 will he, instead, take hold of my strength? Will he make peace with me? Will she 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.
As they advance with violence against Jacob, Israel will flourish and spring forth, and they will fill the face of the world with offspring.
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 struck him with the scourge that he himself used to strike others? Or has he killed in the manner that he himself used to kill his victims?
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.
You will judge this by comparing one measure to another, when he has been cast out. He has decided this, by his stern spirit, for the day of heat.
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, concerning this, the iniquity of the house of Jacob will be forgiven. And this is the reward of all: that their sin be taken away, when he will have made all the stones of the altar to be like crushed cinders. For the sacred groves and the shrines shall not stand.
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 will be desolate. The shining city will be abandoned and will be left behind like a desert. In that place, the calf will pasture, and in that place, he will lie down, and he will feed from its summits.
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.
Its harvest will be crushed by dryness. Women will arrive and teach it, for it is not a wise people. Because of this, he who made it will not take pity on it, and he who formed it will not spare it.
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 this shall be: in that day, the Lord will strike, from the channel of the river, even to the torrent of Egypt. And you shall be gathered together, one by one, O 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 this shall be: in that day, a noise will be made with a great trumpet. And those who had been lost will approach from the land of the Assyrians, with those who had been outcasts in the land of Egypt. And they will adore the Lord, on the holy mountain, in Jerusalem.
